Gaithersburg's business section

States Unit
Election Setup
May Be Attacked

The official count of the primary
election returns held in Rockville
last Thursday showed no material
change in the unofficial returns as
given in the Sentinel last week, in
dicating Victory Committee NOM
inees of the Democratic party win
ners almost 2 to l over the Free
Democrats, but the courts may
be asked to decide who will be the
Democratic candidate for Governor
of Maryland in the November Z
general election.
Although the election took place
ten days ago, George P. Mahoney,
former Racing Commissioner has
not yet conceded the nomination of
Governor w. Preston Lane. AS a
result of a recount of votes by cleo
ton boards in Garrett, Carroll,
Anne Arundel and Wicomico Coun-
ties of the September 18th primary
vote for the Democratic nomination
for Governor, there are indications
that Mr.. Mahoney and his hackers
may go to court to attack Mary
lands unit system.
Mr.. Mahoney topped Governor
Lane by popular votes in the re-
cent contest, but the Governor
emerged victorious with the unit
votes to win the nomination.
The unit system, which has been
in effect in Maryland since 1910,
provides that each of Maryland
twenty-three counties and each of
Baltimore's six legislative districts
receives as many votes in the par
ty nominating convention as it
has members in the General As
sembly. Governor Lane received
eighty-four convention votes on
the basis of returns from the pri-
mary, by winning in all but seven
of the counties and getting the
Eseven unit votes in one Baltimore
legislative district. -

Passover Has Special Meaning For
100000 Finding Freedom in Israel
BY Moses A. Leavitt
Executive Chairman, Joint
Distribution Committee)
Copyright, 1850, Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, Inc.)

For hundreds of thousands of
Jews overseas, Passover 1850 holds
special, personal meaning.
More than 100000 Jews in Is
rael will sit down to the Seder
service to celebrate not only the
journey of their fathers from
bondage to freedom, but their own
similar journeys.
Twelve months ago, at this time,
these very same Jews were living
in European lands, or in any of a
dozen Arab countries, or in far
off Shanghai. Their Seder took
place in a drab DIP camp in Ger
many, or the dark squalor of a
Jewish ghetto in a North African
city or a lowly hut in mountain
Gus Yemen.
Free People
Now, a year later, thanks to
JDC's Operation Magic Carpet" :"
which has air-lifted more than A.
900 Jews from Yemen to Israel,
and to less spectacular JDC-spon-
sored emigration operations, these
Jews find themselves, miraculous
ly, in Israel. And while many of
them are undergoing temporary
hardships in overcrowded recep-
tion camps, they are at long last
free citizens in a free land.
But the Jews who have arrived
in Israel since Passover last, are
not the only ones for whom the
Seder service will have a deep per-
sonal meaning. In Europe still, in
North Africa's cities and towns,
in several countries of the Near
East, there are tens of thousands
who will repeat the ancient pray

is no protection as the police force
is Arabian.
There | realized for the first
time what it means for a Jew to
live in an Arab country with
British protection" The follow
ing story shows it better than any
lengthy description.
The Arabs steal and rape Jew
ish girls. In HONS, a few days be-
fore we came, a young 15-year-
old Jewish girl had been Kidnapped
by 45-year-old Arab who forced
her to marry him. The parents
and brother insisted upon her re-
turn, and were so seriously threat
ened that we had to arrange for
their immediate departure for Is
rael.
HOW CAN the Chara be de-
scribed? It's a conglomeration of
small one-room shacks with no
windows, as are all Arab houses,
and one door which has to be
kept closed at night for fear of
attacks. The filth and the smell
are beyond description. They sleep
right there on the bare ground
parents, grandparents, children
all together.
They were fed with pepper and
tomatoes and bread before the
Joint Gas we in Europe call the
j. D. CO. started to send food. The
flies have taken possession of
these rooms to such an extent that
we couldn't even penetrate into
some of them. The whole popula-
ton in HONS was so scared of
the Arabs that they would rather
sit in their rooms among the flies
than go out into the streets.
How did they know about Israel
and the final victory? How, with
out radio and newspapers, with
out any contact with the outside
world, lost in the desert?
1t was simple. When the Arabs
had a sour face and were beating
them, Israel was winning. When
the Arabs were rejoicing, our boys
had lost, and the Arabs then left
them alone, until they finally had
to admit to the Jews that it was
all finished and told the scared
Jewish population that they would
have it hard until they would join
Israel.
OUT OF thousands upon thou
sands of refugees and DPS that
l have seen in my life, l have
never watched or felt such graft
tude for what "we" are doing.
They could not express it enough.
However, they translated their
emotions into a song, which goes
as follows:
Oh Lord, protect the Joint for
the help it brings to us.
Oh Lord, protect Ben Gurion
and the State where he ex-
poets us.
Blessed be the Joint and Ben
Gurion.
They don't know too much
about the Joint; they just know
that it is you, and you, and you.

J. D. c. Headquarters in Paris tc
''feel" out the situation in this
part of the world, came back with
a strange experience: While visit
ing the dispensary in Tripoli in
January, '48, an 11-year-old boy
suddenly tainted. "What is the
matter" asked Nine. B. "Oh," she
was told, ''this is nothing. 1t hap
pens all the time. He is just under
nourished. They only eat two slices
of bread day."
MISERY AND poverty were
great. The war was going on in
Israel and the Arabs getting bitter.
Most of the Jews were peddlers
who used to leave their homes on
Monday, on donkeys or camels,
and come back on Friday before
sundown.
Little by little they were not
coming back any longer. They
were trapped by the Arabs and
their bodies found somewhere in
the desert. Then, of course, it be-
came better to stay home and
starve. The panic was terrible.
We visited, the first afternoon,
a day camp where hundreds of
children who had just been snug
gled out of Benghasi were trying
to play on the beach. We couldn't
help being struck not only by the
eagnerness with which they ran to
get sandwich of white bread and
jam, but by the deep fear in their
eyes.
THERE WERE many orphans
among them. What has happened
to them in these last months? We
didn't want to know. We have
heard too many of these stories.
The future only counts. Here they
were under good care, with
j. d. c. food and clothes.
Future? Yes! The "old-timers"
were already teaching the newly
arrived Hebrew songs and show
ing how to dance the Hora. 1t
wouldn't be long before they
would leave those shores and the
fear behind. We saw the dispen-
sary, where SO per cent of the
people waiting for medical atten-
tion were seeing a doctor for the
first time in their lives.
The Alliance Israelites Franchise
and the j. ID. C. are maintaining a
school where we saw $50 children
taught for the first time little
songs and poems that they exhib-
tied for us with so much pride.
They were so clean and so happy
looking. What change already
after six weeks.
