 He was called as pastor in Wor- cester, Mass. and left there to be- come minister of a church in New Haven.

The Riches OF
The Mind
BY THOMAS SUGRUE

l found the State of Israel to
be an advance post in the pion-
eering efforts of humanity. It is
an attempt mentally. spiritually
and socially to break into high
er sphere of living-an attempt
made not by conscious effort or
by personal selection. but by the
presence of necessity. >.
found the Israelis easier to be
with than any people I have
known. They are gentle. modest.
friendly. intelligent, curious. Gull
tured. but above all. happY-in
love with their farms and want
ing only to remain with them.
and to make them again a land
flowing in milk and honey.
The problem of our Western
world is simple. Every man
wants what once only kings pos
sessed. If this is somehow &C.
complished. each man will then
be unhappy as an emperor. or a
prince. The alternative. of seek
ing riches of the min and spirit.
of being happy as a beggar or a
saint. has occurred to a few peo-
pie. but notably the Jews in col
lectiVe settlements in Israel.
