Although it should be reasonably evident by that
Jews do not vote bloc, the myth persists.

WE'LL they get of votes and of votes

don't bargain for) vote the other way just to be
trary, to demonstrate that won't be counted in
so-called Jewish bloc But there is of know
ing at election time exactly who voted for whom (hank
goodnessD the delusion continues to prevail.
All of which is by way of leading up to the municipal

Assembly on Palestine in 1947,
and became UN spokesman for
Israel after May Ia, 1948.
His handsome appearance and
reserved demeanor caused some
amazement in UN circles. 1t was
difficult to believe that he was
not the delegate from Britain, for
his brilliant addresses were deliv-
cred in a cultured British accent,
with highly picturesque and pre-
else choice of words. In his rela-
tions with the British delegation,
this young representative of a very
young nation showed astonishing
diplomatic skill and proved to be
a difficult adversary.
AS was the case with his speech
on Libya, all his addresses have
been carefully listened to by the
delegates and fully reported by the
press. Having won the respect of
his colleagues, there seems little
doubt that the young man from S.
Africa will bring honor and glory
to his new homeland, Israel.

Root Of the Matter

of record, it would be advantage
Gus to have all or majority of
our beneficiaries so well repre-
sented. 1t at least would simplify
the problem of education which all
contributors and community lead
ers need to clarity conceptions of
Jewish needs.
The needs of the United Jew
ish Appeal have been so great that
it has been difficult to publicize
the lesser agencies, especially
those which have no local spokes-
man. The fact that these agencies
have not been adequately publ
cized does not lessen the commu-
nifty responsibility for supporting
them. Because of their vital role
in Jewish life, we should take the
time and effort to consider them
more seriously than we have.

Jewish community wants one. Last
year the series ran into sizable
deficit and entailed lot of effort
for the comparatively few people
who worked on it.
There is plan that calls for
maximum of cooperation and
support from the organized groups
in the community but which will
insure the success of the series if
properly organized.
Under the plan, every Jewish
organization in the community
would accept the responsibility for
the sale of a stipulated number
of season tickets in proportion to
it's membership. 1t would pay into
the Cultural Series treasury the
cost of the tickets IN ADVANCE
and would sell the tickets to its
own membership to repay it's own

growing up in the cooperative
settlement? Now that the infant
mortality rate of the village, like
that of other similar colonies, is
26 per thousand - the lowest in
the world - will the cultural
growth of the young Israelis keep
pace with their splendid physical
development?
There was no doubt left in my
mind when l read that seven study
halls had been built into their new
library, and an auditorium seating
600, with a stage large enough
to accommodate the Habima, or
the Tel Aviv Symphony Orchestra.
What wonderful opportunities
lie within reach of these farmers
sons and daughters!
And what a challenge to any
librarian lies in the new building
at Givat Brenner! Unquestionably
that library will be No. l on my

THE YOUNG MAN FROM
SOUTH AFRICA There was
surprise in some quarters when
Israel's Aubrey Eban recently
urged that Libya be granted her
independence by the United Ma
tions. 1t would mean the creation
of an eighth Arab state, the other
seven of which have brought little
pleasure indeed to Israel.
Yet there was nothing incon-
sistent about Mr.. Eban's stand. Is
rael will certainly fare better in
future days if she is surrounded
by Independent nations, working
out their destiny free of the in
trigues Of larger powers.
Presenting Israel's position to
the UN Assembly must be a very
satisfying, at times soul-stirring
experience for Mr.. Eban, the 81
year-old Israeli who has since
childhood directed his life around
the dream of Jewish state.
Born in Capetown, S. Africa,
he was taken to Britain at the age
of five and attended school and
university there. Only IL years
ago, he graduated from Cambridge
with triple First Glass Honors,
having studied Arabic, Hebrew

Jewish community leaders re-
gret the failure of the bill to win
through, but cannot help asking
themselves what the local COM
munities would have done to i'm
plement the bill if it had won. Un-
fortunately local communities have
not been so ready to accept dis
placed persons for resettlement.
This is not universally true but
it is true enough to have con-
stituted a real problem for the
United Service for New Ameri-
cans, the Jewish reception and re-
settlement agency.
It is one thing to cry out against
the discrimination embodied in the
present displaced persons legisla-
ton and it is another thing to ac-
cept the responsibilities that a
more liberal national immigration
policy would entail.
The present legislation demands
that all displaced persons be as
sured of adequate housing and en-
ployment by individual persons or
by communities. Unless commu-
mites will be willing to accept a
greater number of displaced per-
sons, then it is useless to cry out
for the admission of more.
How many more refugees is the
Jewish community of Phoenix will
ing to accept?
SOME OF the agencies to which
the United Jewish Welfare Fund
of Phoenix gives money have
staunch local supporters. There is
no question that the presence OF
such partisans in the community
helps enormously in getting allo-
cations.
There is nothing wrong with
using such influence. AS a matter

When war broke out, he en-

he became Chief Arabic Censor,

In 1916 he made the final
choice between an academic future
at Cambridge and a more event

Groups could even make money
on the plan because each could
obtain, on a pre-arranged basis,
blocks of additional tickets, pro-
ceeds of which could enrich the
individual treasures.
This plan insures a good series,
finances it, gives each organiza-
ton an opportunity to participate
in a worthwhile Jewish enterprise
and establishes a pattern of CO.
operation among them that will
carry over into other areas.

brary, until I chanced to see "In
Search of a Future" Maurice Hin
dus' story of his visit to the Mid
die East.
Quite casually, as if this were
not one of the most significant
notes in his story, he tells of the
new building lately completed at
Givat Brenner. The new structure.
a library, houses 10000 books, for
the village population of 1880,
half of whom are children.
1t seemed to me, as l read, that
it was. a rather large collection
for so small a population. Twenty
thousand volumes = 16 books for
each member of the community.
How does it compare with libraries
in other parts of the world?
l have no statistics on libraries
in American agricultural commu-
mites of comparable size. But in
formation is available on the Ii
braries closest to us-those in
various communities in Arizona.
Allowing for the fact that the alb
sence of a state library agency
makes for exceptionally poor serv-
ice to the rural communities, such
better-served areas as our own
Maricopa county have 205,00O
volumes for $4,000 people, or
65/10O of a book per person.
The size of Givat Brenner's new
library, and the active use to
which it is put, are all the more
remarkable when we remember
that the villagers have deliberate
ly put behind them all thoughts of
the purely intellectual life, and
have dedicated themselves to a
new ideal. They are digging their
roots into the soil, to make a
permanent life for their people in
the new land.
Labor-the work of their own
hands-is their way of life. The
number of gallons of milk pro-
duced by their superior breed of
cows, the number of eggs laid by
their hens-these are their great
est pride. Yet the farmers of Givat
Brenner have 16 books per capita
on their library shelves, and six
librarians to serve them!
