Last week a jury of IL convic-
ted Mr.. and Mrs. Aaron Gold
smith of failing to do their part

local Jewish organizations and

ties. We had with US at the trial
Mr.. Dupont Goldberg. who be-
fore the war wds frequent con-
tributor to The Southern Jewish
Weekly. but who during his four
years of serving Uncle Sam and
since the war has taken life easy
and has contented himself to OBJ
serve the Jewish scene without
comment. Mr.. Goldberg is a
cousin of Mr.. Zilch about whom
Mr.. Alfred Segal frequently
writes in his Plain Talk" col
umn which appears on the front
page of the Jewish Weekly every
Friday.
Mr.. Goldberg is a quiet type of
person and not given to emot-
iOnal excitement. During the
trial, however, Dupont kept
squirming in his seat. We could
see his face getting red. AS the

flinched with each charge they
levelled at the Goldsmiths. It
was as if he himself was on trial.
We felt sorry for Mr.. Goldberg
and reminded him that no one
was accusing him of not doing
his share in the community. for
he belonged to all the organiza-
tons in tn city. and his contri-
button of $l.500 was certainly
better than average. But Mr..
Goldberg was not worried about
himself. He was worried about
Jacksonville.
''Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Gold
smith," he said, "the Mr.. and
Mrs. Jacksonville Jewry. You
might even go further and say
that they are symbolic of Mr.. and
Mrs. American Jewry. Every
Jew is guilty of not doing
enough"
We mentioned a few Jews in
town who were giving unstin-
tinglY of their time and money
to various Jewish causes and he
came back at me with this reply:

their 1870 allowance, deductable

What we do now will affect the
future we'll being of our children.
The greatest miracle of modern
times is the rebirth of the Jew
ish state. Did you notice the
small number of Jews who be-
long to the Jacksonville Zionist
District? How can any self-re-
speeding Jew refuse to participate
in the establishment of a Home

largest Jewish organization. Ha-
dassah. and of the wonderful
work it was doing. and Dupont
softened up a bit. He smiled and
said:
1T is good to see our women
rise UP during these challenging
times. For many it is bitter
and confused awakening. The
men, must be stirred to accept
the responsibilities of today.
Birth and birthright have made
him what ne is; what he makes
Of these must issue from him
self. Israel has been born to
travel an eternal road. Those
who thrill and glow with its
achievement and participate in
it's program gain a warmth and
inspiration which make them bet
ter human beings. The faint
hearted, the resentful and the
renegade may flee their psychic
or spiritual agony, but they
drown as they run to the leveling
waters. Those who greet and
embrace their destiny are lifted
by vision transcending foam
and flood"
What can we do to arouse
our people to greater participa-
ton N Jewish organizations
which are dedicated to these
ideals?" We asked.
Your newspaper and the many
others throughout the world are
helping already" he said. by
showing your readers how peo-
pie who forsake a prophetic
charge are themselves forsaken

standing service. The Southern

remarks and asked him to accom-
panY us to pay our respects to
