COOL WEATHER
CHANGES FADS

Cool and wet is the long-range
weather forecast for the next
quarter century and while you
may not be too concerned at this
particular time these climatic
conditions will have a direct
bearing on fashions of the flu
ture.
So says RAYMOND II. Wheeler.
Phi. d.. who has made a close
study Of weather and its influ-
ence on human behavior for 20
years. In an article appearing
in the January American Mag
aine DR.. Wheeler asserts that
weather shapes our destiny. and
our day-to-day behavior, in ways
we never suspect.
He predicts:
We're coming into a period
of old-fashioned prosperity.
old fashioned ways Of living.
strict. old fashioned virtues.
Also. we're coming into a LOT
Of old fashioned winters"
And these changes will have a
vital bearing on feminine fash
ions as well as the type of homes
in which Americans will live.
Feminine fashions will run
to gay, riotous and elaborate
design" says the weather prophet

20 years there'll be at least a

New York is the game Of the

New Yorker It's the upkeep.
Most places I've visited you hang
onto your own hat wherever you

In restaurants you hang them
on hooks and watch 10 see that
no one steals them. In fheaiers
you hold your hat on your lap.
Some places even have little
ire gadgeis under the seats
which hold the hat securely.
In New York we are plagued
with hat checkers. When you go
into a restaurant, you check your
hat. This costs you from two
bits up. The same hing is true
in theater. BY the time you
end up an evening you have paid
out enough to buy new hat.
Not only that, but the game
of hats further entails your will
ingness to switch hats with some
other pasSerby for somehow hats

you can get any kind OF food out

But this is the game of man

WHY Are We Different?

What makes this day different from all others"
That all know, is the classic question of the
Passover The answer of course is set forth in
Haggadah, to be recited at the first Seder
Now let's rephrase the question within purely local
framework
what makes Phoenix different from all other cities ?"
The answer to that isn't readily at hand. But
the question needs to be asked-and it IS being asked
because Phoenix the only major city in the country to
lag behind in it's giving to the almportant of
united Jewish welfare.
The question was asked by Rabbi Herbert A. Friedman
of Denver when he here recently to help out
drive He said he had travelled throughout the u and
here and feel that have failed he observed sadly
81 will just have to try harder in the next communities
that visit to make up for the losses have sustained in
Phoenix"
The question was asked, too, by Morris Gotlieb of
Allentown, Pa, prominent UJA worker He said that of
18 cities he had visited, only Phoenix refusing
shoulder its responsibilities
What's to be done about it? Well, we might try
different philosophical approach If the plight of world
Jewrythe anguish, poverty and struggle for existence
isn't enough to jar into giving, and if thus can't
bring give for fellow Jews let's give for
ourselves.
We must live with ourselves-with conscience and
God No amount of to ourselves will alter that
fact. And many of the given last year-the
roversy the then executive director of the Jewish
Community Council and theological quarrels with Zion
ism-are longer valid this year. assuming they were

We were strangers, we were
slaves, yet with Gods help we
were delivered from the Pharoahs
of every age. Therefore we must
ever remember the stranger, and
give aid to all who are oppressed.
We must value freedom as it can
be valued and cherished only by
those who were once enslaved.
We must enjoy the Lords bounty

that Jewish communities through
out the country this year will not
raise less funds for their activities
than last year.
Pittsburgh has adopted $2,871,-
900 as it's 1850 campaign goal,
which is the same amount raised
in 1948. Philadelphia expects to
raise $6,O0O,O00 which is $780,
900 more than in 1949. Newark
raised $2,750,0O0 last year and
hopes to raise the same sum this
year.
Houston raised $712,0OO last
year and it's ALLEGATIONS this year
are based on the same figure. In
dianapolis, which last year raised
40 percent less than 1948, will
try to do better this year.

of the community, is planned for

erance.
We Jews do not forget the past,
but gather it to US, and make its
lessons a part of our lives. There
fore for US Passover, the great
festival of freedom, holds memoir
les which have meaning today.
Matzo is known as the "bread
of affliction," moror reminds us
of the bitterness of slavery,
charoses represents the mortar
mixed by the Hebrew slaves; the
fifth cup of wine at the Seder
table is for Elijah who, tradition
has it, will precede the Messiah,
and thus bring about the final re-
demption, just as Moses was the
instrumentality of the first re-
demption.
At the conclusion of the Seder
we say: "L'shonoh ha-bo-oh bi
Yerusholayim = Next year in
Jerusalem" a phrase which orig
mated after the Roman conquest
of Palestine, to express the hope
of all Jews of that time to live
long enough to observe Passover
in a new and free Jerusalem.
This Passover we will all be
stirred by new memories, as we'll
as those we have long cherished.
We will recall the six million who
died in the new slavery of Nazism,
the bitterness Of Cyprus and the
Exodus 1947, the heroism of the
defenders of Israel, and the NOV
ing pronouncement of May IA,
1948.
Once we were slaves, but the
Lord delivered us-for he sancti-
fled the memories of those who

as he was, he spoke out vigor-
ously and uncompromisingly, even
when the cause he upheld was no
longer fashionable.
Among his last written words
were those expressing his hope
for international peace, as en-
visioned by Isaiah and Micah, the
prophets of old. Toward the end
of his autobiography he wrote
of the "infinite wrongs, destruc-
tions and defilements of war;"
Castigating the churches and syna-
gogues of the land for their cow
ardliness, he asked, "Is it not the
sin of organized religion to take
yet another war for granted and
to give no leadership to the
most imperative of all causes, the
cause of averting what may be-
come world-destructive war;"
In the spirit of this great
hearted, fearless leader of men,
the 70 settlers of Kfar Shmuel
set out on a new road, hoping for
peace and plenty, but prepared
as he was to protect the principles
by which they live.

Almost any Jew who has emil
grated from Germany since 1888
is a potential claimant. And refu-
gees in this country who were at
any time imprisoned by the Nazis
in Germany are eligible for sub
stantial indemnification. An eligi-
BILE claimant may recover $50
German marks = about $35-for
each month of Imprisonment. He
can recover up to $4,000 German
marks for loss of property. He
can also claim up to $4,000 Ger
man marks for loss of economic
opportunities.
These funds are now blocked,
but they may be available later,
or may be used for welfare pur-
poses in Germany. The HAS and
the United Service for New Ameri-
cans have alerted Jewish COM
munities throughout the country
to the need of immediate action
on behalf of those who can still
file their claims. So did the Coun-

they do not overlap. AT the very
time that the Welfare Fund cam
paign is trying desperately to raise
funds for important causes vital
to Jewish life, at least two other
campaigns, if not three, are also
in progress.
The present arrangement is
neither fair nor equitable. Many
of the campaigns other than the
Welfare Fund are no doubt i'm
portant and necessary, but under
existing conditions create so much
competition that they all suffer.
I'll wager that about half the
campaigns being conducted in the
Jewish community can be elimi-
mated without causing the slight
est disturbance to the even tenor
of positive Jewish life. Anybody
want to bet?
IN EVERY organization, in
time, there arises feeling among
its more partisan members that
Jewish activities, the survival of
the Jewish people, the effective
operation of Jewish causes, all
depend on the continued existence
of that particular organization.
This is certainly understandable.
Organizations do not flourish un-
less they have deeply partisan
members. But somewhere a sense
of balance and proportion should
come into operation.
Take this matter of organiza-
ton meetings, for example. There
are about 26 known organizations
in the Jewish adult community.
Altogether these organizations
meet 80 times monthly. 1t would
be simple if each organization met
once a month and if there were
not more than one meeting each
night.
Friday nights and Saturday
nights have to be ruled out, how
ever, which means that in an aver
age month of % meetings nights,
80 meetings compete for attend
ance. When some tired member
says the community is over-or-
ganized, he is referring to the
number rather than to the types
of meetings.
What to do about it? The
answer is really very simple. Those
organizations that meet twice a
month might easily get along with
one. Those that are meeting every
month might try to get along with
one every two months or even
quarterly.
The day may come when there
will be show of strength in the
community by organizations and
some groups will fall by the way
side out of sheer neglect. 1t would
be wise to anticipate this undesir-
able result by making it easy and
profitable for members to attend
meetings by spacing them out
properly.
Like some other things that are
now going on in the community
at a furious pace, meetings, too,
could disappear without causing
a ripple. There is nothing so de-
structive of partisan ego as to
find a cherished cause dropped
for want of interest.
