British Pepper Urges
Further Aids TO Israel

LONDON, (JTA)-Britain's de
facto recognition of Israel does
not mean the automatic creation
of a better understanding be-
tween Britain and Israel, the Man
chester Guardian warned in an
editorial recently.
Asserting that the British an
nouncement had been greeted with
more relief than enthusiasm, the
Liberal organ declared that ser
les of practical steps was neces-
saary to establish understanding.
1t advised the British government
that first of all it must send to Tel
Aviv a diplomatic representative
worthy of a big and difficult
task. Trade relations between
the two countries should be en-
couraged, the paper declared.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1949-02-11

He said there may be increases
or decreases in the various items
that make up the 1949 goal of
$262,81O. The widest possible
participation" in the final decision
was urged by Silverman, and he
said that anyone wishing to serve
on the budget committee should
notify Executive Director j. S.
Pearlstien.
"The officers desire to clarity
confusion in the minds of some
Of our people that our budget is
an established budget" said Silver
man. "The goal we have set up
represents need, but it does not
represent a definite budget. 1t is
just a pre-campaign estimate of
need"
Budget Analysis
Here is an analysis of the 1949
budget as compared with alloca-
tions made in 1948 from the $751;
664 collected during the last
years drive:
United Jewish Appeal: 100000
estimated for 1949,. 100000 al
located in 1948.
National agencies: $25,380 es-
timated for 1949, $8,512 allocated
in 1948.
Local program: $1s,5OO esti-
mated for 1949, 5000 allocated
in 1948.
Phoenix Jewish Community
Council: $16,930 estimated for
1949, $15,199 allocated in 1948.
Campaign expense: $1,000 esti-
mated for 1949, $6,954 allocated
in 1948.
Expanded Youth Work
Silverman explained that the
proposed local increases stem
largely from the newly-developed
youth program and refugee re-
settlement. The youth program,
he said, did not actually get un-
der way until last October. It's
expense totaled about $500. Esti-
mated expense for a full year is
$650O.
AS for refugee resettlement,
Silverman said Phoenix is doing
an inadequate job" but under
new setup the community hopes
to bring in it's ''just share" of
refugees, at an estimated cost of
$4,000.
Silverman said there is practi-
cally no increase in the proposed
administrative ALLEGATION and ad-
ded that Phoenix campaign ex-
pese is entirely in line with the
national level"

He is ordered destroyed, along

Most blessed with opportunity
in The Yellow Jacket" cast is
James Radomski as Woo Hoo Git
who ranges through life from
babyhood - as symbolically|
dressed stick - to marriage with
Plum Blossom as herself. His
quest for set of suitably aristo-
cratic ancestors is a comic pill
grimage in its every phase. most
comic logically enough when the
young hero Is learning his tirst
lessons in love.
The hero's role, however. is
only a little richer in humor than
that of the Chorus. or narrator,

learned well the sly art Of taking
an audience into his confidence.
The Chinese were never a peo-
pie to stress women in their
