There are many indications that NOR,
people are more fed up with the

Add all this up and one can under
stand why the belief is so strong that
Mr.. Truman is through. If this view
is sound, the question then arises:
how much Influence would he have
after ne announces he is out? The
best opinion is not enough to dictate
the convention nominees. As stated
he could. of course, renominate him

An interesting suggestion of one
thing he might do has been made
He could withhold any statement UNI

Mr.. Truman and the Democrats do

Eisenhower. 1t makes no difference
what he stands for or whom we put
up. If that possibility eXists-and it
does-we have got to nominate him.
OF course, it may not work out that
way. Perhaps circumstances or his
own decision will eliminate General
Eisenhower before the conventions
meet. The Republicans then might
feel safe in nominating Mr. Taft and
the Democrats would be forced to
choose among certain already men
toned party figures, including the
three senators, Fulbright, kefauver
and the arch Nh. Paul Douglas, of
Illinois, who so unctuously and IN
convincingly disparages himself be-
fore his television audiences. But it
will be agreed that this Eisenhower
possibility exists and that no more
pregnant possibility has been known

will still not permit the unlocking
of the bond refunding dollar.
The only effect of the bond pur-
chase as a charitable contribution
will be to relieve Israel from MAX
ing repayment at the very end of
the IL or 15-year period or by CASH
ing in the bond at the end of three
years and then using the cash for a
charitable contribution.
The purchase of bond is not
now, nor was it ever, considered to
be a substitute for contribution to
the Welfare Funds or the United
Jewish Appeal. The contribution is
deductible from income tax; the
bond purchase is not.
Moreover, all interest accruals on
bond purchases, regardless of the
anticipated disposal of the bond,
charitable or otherwise, must be re-
ported with other income in in
come tax returns. 1t is only when
an actual contribution is made with
the bond that an income tax deduc-
tion is allowable.
All of the foregoing is not to
hamper the sale of bonds in Phoe-
nix but only to clear the air of any
misconceptions that might cause
confusion later on. There is no rea-
son why this community cannot go
all-out for the bond sales and turn
in record of which any commun-
ity might well be proud.

ONE OF THE most soul-satisfy-
ing experiences of this writer re-
suited from participation in the Is
rael birthday celebration sponsored
by the seven local Zionist organiza-
tions May 13 at Temple Beth
Israel.
The whole evening and its pro-
gram demonstrated to the 1000
persons in attendance how good it
is when brothers (and sisters) live
together in harmony. Not any one
of the sponsoring organizations
alone, not any small group of these
organizations, could have conducted
an affair comparable to the one
held under joint auspices.
The program committee, made
up of all seven groups, must be
complimcnted on the grand pro-
gram. Everything, except the num-
Der of seats for the audience, was
perfect. The audience, although
very large and to some degree un-
comfortably seated, was attentive,
elf-disciplined and responsive. The
speaker was excellent.
The whole affair will go down in
local history as one of the most
successful ever held in the Phoenix
Jewish Community.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1951-05-25

bond campaigns. This relates to
the fact that Councils are incor-
porated as eleemosynary institu-
tions, not organized for commercial
purposes or profit, and that bond
sales, regardless of the object of
the sales, are definitely commercial
by ruling of the Security Exchange
Commission. 1t is feared, and with
justification, that the involvement
of Councils in bond sales will jeop-
ardize the tax-free status of the
Welfare Funds.
This does not mean that indi-
vidual members of the Jewish COM
munity cannot buy and sell bonds
or assist in the campaign effort.
But it does mean that, for this year
at least, or until ruling is handed
down on the matter from Washing
ton, the organized Jewish Com
munity Councils will not be able
to conduct the campaigns.
In Phoenix that will mean that
the campaign must be organized
and conducted entirely by lay per-
sons in the community. 1t goes
without saying, however, that the
facilities of the Council office will
be at the disposal of the Board
organization.
While on the subject of bonds, it
is timely to repeat the warning is
sued recently by Abba Eban, Israel
ambassador to the United States.
He said that bond sales should not
be confused with philanthrophy.
Israel must set up reserve and de-
pository for each bond sold. The
granting of a license to sell the
bonds in the United States demands
that the refunding plan be rigidly
observed.
That means that for every hun
dred-dollar bond sold, Israel will
pay $3.50 in interest and fees and
promotion costs within the required
time. Even if the buyer does not
intend to cash the bond for his per-
sonal profit but intends either to
return the bond to Israel or dispose
of it in some charitable way, this

PIacating Move
Is Hit by Envoy

FLUSHING MEADOW, N. Y
(JTA)-The United Nations Secur-
ity Council has debated a draft res
olution on the Israeli-Syrian dis
pute which, if carried, would order
Israel Immediately to cease work
on the Huleh reclamation project
and would avoid any criticism of
Syria for its military aggression
against the Jewish state.
Israel Ambassador Abba E. Eb-
an, in a fighting, last-minute eff
fort to defeat the resolution, told
the United States, Britain, France
and Turkey, who sponsored the res
olution, that they had destroyed
the possibility of agreement be-
tween Israel and Syria by their
timing.
He said that prospects for agree
ment had existed but that the en-
tirely pro-Syrian character of the
resolution undoubtedly would cause
Syria to forego signing a cease-fire
agreement based on clearing all
troops out of the demilitarized
zone.
Calls 1t Appeasement
The resolution, he told the Secur-
ity Council, represented complete
and uncritical" acceptance of Syr-
ian views and was tantamount to
pulling Syrian chestnuts out of
the fire.
Damascus points a pistol at
your head and asks for appease-
ment," he exclaimed. "Israel asks
only to be left alone to drain its
swamps. 1t is a dramatic choice
between the sword and the plow-
share"

is to the eternal credit of those
early scholars that they told the
story as it had come down to them,
good and evil as it was known. For
they realized that mankind could
learn an unexampled lesson from
the rise of ordinary mortals to
heights of greatness and holiness
through the overcoming of their
evil inclinations SO that, like
Jacob, the betrayer of his father
and brother, who eventually became
Israe's, Gods chosen one, we, too,
could reach the greatest heights
through our own efforts and Gods
inspiration.
Far from being ashamed of the
record, we may rightly feel pride in
the history of our people as it is
set down in the Bible. For that
story has been the inspiration for
the growth of the democratic ideal,
which is the strength and the great
ness of our own American republic.
AS DIR. William E. Gilroy pointed
out recently in his weekly Bible
Comment" appearing in The Ari-
zona Republic, the Jews of Bible
times lived in primitive world,
where human rights went unre-
spected and unprotected. Yet they
taught that all men were equal be-
fore God, and that freedom was
every mans destiny.
They were centuries ahead of
their time, but they kept the ideals
of social justice in their hearts.
And all through the succeeding
centuries they remembered the Bib
lical message, and carried it to the
world.
1t was Tolstoy who said, "The
Jew has been that sacred being who
has brought down from heaven the
everlasting fire and has illumined
with it the entire world" And we
will find that everlasting fire.
shining nowhere more brightly
than in the Bible, where the herit-
age of liberty, equality and justice
had its source.
In sharing that Holy Book with
all the world, let US not forget that
it was ours to begin with, the work
of our inspired ancestors. Let us
still hold fast to it with pride, and
never let its spirit be removed from
our hearts or our lives!

The Times Herald attacked the
publication, which is a book of
songs entitled "Sing a Song of
Friendship" used in the ADJ edu-
cational program. The Washington
paper called it propaganda"
against american welfare"
A song contained in the book is
called Thomas Jefferski." The
paper said: "But the 'Jefferski' Of
fensiveness is only one among many
leading up to the revelation in the
final pages that "We1l Soon Be
One World" thought that fits so
neatly into current proceedings that
range from Korea to Lake Success

Editor rim Chief Frank G. Waldrop
of the Times Herald. Edelsberg

Lee struck a particularly low

1T IS INTERESTING to note
that Col. Robert r. Mccormick is
the editor and publisher of Wald-
rop's paper. Not too long ago, Nc
Cormick published a front page

purported to be an expose of a

THE EVERLASTING FIRE :.
One summer we had a Bible-read-
ing group; but few of US were pre-
pared for what we found in the
Holy Book.
We had grown up with the no.
ton that the Patriarchs-Abraham
Isaac and Jacob-had lived sanity
lives; and we were disturbed to find
that they too, had been human, with
all the weaknesses of humankind
How could we expect, someone
said, to have the >non-Jewish world
think well of us when right there
in the Bible they could find evi-
dence that the early Hebrews had
been wicked and treacherous
1t was small comfort to these
readers to realize that the very
presence of these stories was testi-
mony to the high moral level OF
Jewish belief. For the editors of
the Bible might easily have ex-
cluded these stories, and they
would eventually have disappeared
altogether, leaving a halo of un-
sullied righteousness about the
heads of our early ancestors.
