The World Deer

But we all need it now, to help
our youngsters into a happier kind
of life, into greater security.
/ was stirred by what Rabbi
David Polish, one of Reform Jew
RVS outstanding young leaders,
said to his congregation recently.
It was the very answer to this
quite serious problem:
"Why don't some of our lay
leaders invite the rabbis to teach
them some Judaism?"
And l began to see the possibil-
tiles of his suggestion: A congre-
CATION orthodox, conservative
or reform = which actually con-
cerned itself with learning Jud-
aism; a congregation which built
itself a new structure solely for
the purpose of better worshipping
God and studying all the works in
spired by God; a congregation that
used the synagogue or temple as
house of study - a Beth ha-
Midrash = for which purpose the
synagogue was originally created
a congregation which turned to the
rabbi as its teacher, which rabbi
truly was in another generation
and would gladly be today!
It's a far cry from a spiritual
leader to a mystery writer; but,
looking at the same problem from
two different vantage points, they
have seen the same picture: an
American Jewry desperately weak
ened by it's unwillingness to learn
the meaning and the beauty of
Judaism, and to give that very
knowledge to its children.
We've tried so many panaceas.
Why not go back to the very
remedy which, come to think of it,
probably saved our people more
than once in its history from COM
plete extinction - let's ask our
rabbis to teach US little Judaism

JEWISH SOCIAL Services is
looking for an increase in clients
and service costs as a result of re-
Gently enacted legislation. The
public (tax supported) welfare
agencies have already put into op-
Grafton some of the provisions of
the new legislation involved in
the health, welfare and correction
bill which Governor Pyle just
signed.
The new regulations make il
much more difficult for needy
persons to obtain necessary relief.
The length of time they have lived
in the state before being eligible
has been changed from three years
to five years and all recipients
must be citizens or must have
lived in the United States for rs
proveable years. There are other
restrictions.
Thus what appears to be a good
bill from the point of view of ad-
ministration turns out a mighty
poor bill from the point of view
of the additional hardships it will
present to the needy poor.
The problem of length of resi-
dence is a very important one to
the Jewish community, as many OF
our people came here seeking
health in the postwar years and
have not been here long enough
to be eligible. Jewish Social Serv-
ices is operating on the assump-
ton that the community wants the
agency to help these people and
is doing it. This will require more
money, which can come only from
the Community Chest and the
Welfare Fund. We will have to
give more to both these fund
raising agencies to provide the
needed resources.

no television, and, worst of all,
no Purim!
But good friend gave US a
holiday momento which is really
helping us over the rough spots
a clever box of candy made in
the shape of a Purim grager, with
horn on the outside - another
holiday gift item dreamed up by
Barton's Candies.
And that brings to mind the
contest recently announced by this
same enterprising, Sabbath-observ-
ing firm of New York City. 1t is
open to all Sunday school children
and it offers a 500 government
bond and other prizes for the best
original writing on Jewish
theme. A poem, story or essay on
subject such as Jewish holidays,
customs and ceremonies, Israel,
outstanding American Jews or
Jewesses, might win for a Phoenix
youngster. So send your literary
efforts to: Barton's Candies, 80
De Kalb Ave., Brooklyn 1, N. Y.
And while you're about it, order
a few boxes of Barton's delicious
Passover candy. God willing, and
all epidemics put to rout, these
will make the usual sensation in

still the Jews of Iraq keep COM

who are fleeing for their lives

Life in Iraq is no longer toler-

leaving, empty-handed, to seek
refuge elsewhere; and only the Is
raelis, of all the good people OF
the world, have offered to share
their homes, their food, their all

We will share little money.

Iraqi Terror?
State Dept.
Can't See 1t
By Milton Friedman
(Copyright, 1850, Jewish Telegraphic
Agency. Inc.l


WASHINGTON - The s t a t e
department felt that Israel For
eign Minister Sharett's version of
the persecution of Iraq Jewry was
not in keeping with the facts.
Jewish Telegraphic Agency dis
patches describing anti-Jewish ter
ror in Iraq and a radio newscast
over a Washington station by this
correspondent were looked upon
with disapproval by elements
within the state department. The
American embassy in Baghdad,
the Iraqi capital, informed Wash
ington that the Jewish reports
were without foundation. But
what was the truth?
While the American embassy in
Baghdad was busy denying that
there were any disturbances, a
hand grenade flew into the U. S.
government offices in Baghdad.
Since the state department main
tanned there was no disturbance,
it is difficult to understand how
grenade could propel itself into
an American installation, blowing
up four people, in the midst of
such an idyllic scene of love and
amity.
ARABS IN WASHINGTON told
the story that Jews are treated
nicely in Iraq. They alleged that
J.T.A. bulletins were part of a
publicity stunt to stimulate contri-
buttons to the United Jewish Ap-
peal.
The state department and the
Iraqis were in touch. A u. S. Of
ficial said that the J.T.A. stories
might offend the Iraqis. In that
event, he said, he would not be
surprised if the Iraqis really
launched some prosecutions.
He admitted that Jewish bank
accounts were frozen and that the
U. S. diplomatic report confirmed
this. But he limited that Israel in
terfered with Arab assets, so he
thought it to be "six of one and
half-dozen of the other"
An ancient Arab proverb teach
es that a person does not really
own his possessions but the pos
sessions actually own and enslave
him. 1t must have been with char
ity in mind that the Iraqi Arabs
set the Jewish refugees free from
their b r d n m possessions.
Some refugees arrived in Israel
almost naked - completely lib
Grated by their Iraqi benefactors.
THE FRENCH NEWS Agency
reported directly from Baghdad
that anti-Jewish d ecrees had
brought Iraq into "a state Of
chaos" Meanwhile, the Associated
Press told of disturbances. In fact,
while the state department tried
to paint the Iraqis in a favorable
light, Iraqi nationalists repaid the
favor by plotting to seize Ameri-
can oil interests.
The London Daily Herald re-
ported in 1888 that plans were
complete for "an anti-Jewish po-
grom in Germany on a scale as
terrible as any instance of Jewish
persecution in 1000 years." The
state department then said 'this
government is disinclined to lend
credence to this report"
