WATCH YOUR STEP, MR.. PRESIDENT!
Continued trom preceding page

tone of voice or the expression on
his face will take on Importance
which he never dreamed would
be possible.
Before the new occupant of
the White House finds his proper
depth in the heaving sea of pub
lie relations, he will - unless he
is a genius - suffer some bitter
disappointments.
The effect of these mistakes
can be tremendous. Speaking in
an offhand manner on Novem-
Der 80. 1850, MIR. Truman, under
sharp news-conference question
ing, intimated that the field COM
mander in Korea could use the
atomic bomb against the Com
mmists any time he desired. The
White House "clarification" did
not come out in time or in suffi-
cient detail to keep British Prime
Minister Clement Attlee from
hopping a plane and rushing over
here to find oft what wac in the
Presidents mind.
Another source of painful
disappointment to a new
President is his discovery that
he can rarely let his hair
down. Even his Oldest friends
will occasionally succumb to the
highly human urge to show their
importance by dropping a con-
fidential plum to some equally
trusted friend. From then on, the
secret spreads like weeds in a
rainy spring.
WThe Hard Rock Club"
A NEW President must guard
against his own sentimentality.
Mr.. Truman, shortly after he
became President, gaily encour-
aged the formation of what was
knownas The Hard Rock Club"
This group consisted largely of
reporters and staff members.
The President entertained sew
eral times for these convivial fel-
lows, and they, in turn, decided
to have an intimate dinner and
poker game for Mr.. Truman in.

ANTI-SEMITIC SMEAR SHEETS
DISSEMINATED IN ABILENE
AND SOUTH DAKOTA

PHILADELPHIA, (JTA) = A
demand for more drastic action to
check the use of anti-Semitism as
a political weapon in the Presi-
dental campaign is made in an
editorial in the current issue of
the Philadelphia Jewish Expon-
ent.
The paper says that if wE1at
happened in Abilene, Kansas, is
to be taken as an example, "then
all the protests that have been
voiced till now against the anti
Semitic propaganda in connection
with the Presidential election
campaign was of no avail" That
town, the editorial reports, twas
flooded with anti-Semitic smear
sheets"
In South Dakota, the editorial
continues, ''the mails were filled
with the same kind of scurrility."
It quotes report to the effect
that voters were flooded with
smear sheets and paid political adj
vertisements viciously attacking
Gen. Eisenhower's integrity, his
religion and his character" and
points out that this happened in
South Dakota "where the Jewish
citizenry is an infinitesimal frac-
ton of the population.

historically has it's roots in Eretz
Yisroel, be brought to new fruit
ion in this land, hallowed as it
is through the memory of the
prophets and sages who lived
there.
One of the first major steps on
the road to closer cultural and
spiritual ties between American
Jewry and the State of Israel was
taken by the Seminary during the
past winter with the founding of
the Seminary Israel Institute. The
outcome of Doctor Finkelstein's
present visit to Israel, climaxed
by the special Convocation, may
well be the second major step on
that road. Doctor Finkelstein has
suggested the establishment in
Jerusalem, under the auspices of
the Hebrew University, conclave
of world scholars of varied back
grounds to deal with the philos-
optical perplexities of our genera
ton. It is his hope that men who
have matured in various single
disciplines will join together in
such a conclave, so that their
joint thinking can bring us closer
to the solution of our moral prob
lens than the individual thinking
of any one of them possibly could.
Such a group could make a con-
tribution to world peace which
might bring us in our time nearer
to a realization of the prophetic
vision of Israel's destined role
among the nations.

Dr.. Louis FinkeIstein Presents Prime Minister
David Ben Gurion With Honorary Degree

When Doctor Louis Finkelstein,
Chancellor of the Jewish Theolo-
gical Seminary of America, con-
ferred upon Prime Minister David
Ben-Gurion, the honorary degree
of Doctor of Letters, at an unpre-
cedented Seminary Convocation
in Jerusalem, he took what may
appear to future historians an i'm
portant step on the path toward
a new kind of unity between Is
rael and the Jews of America.
Long before the creation of the
new state, it was clear to Jewish
leaders in this country and abroad
that Israel would need economic
and political support from the
western countries if it was to fill
the role which history had i'm
posed upon it. Less clear was the
potential relation between SCENT
lists, scholars, and creative artists
in the new state and Jewish
scholars in the diaspora.
On accepting the degree, Mr..
Ben-Gurion defined this latter
relation thusly: "The state of Is
rael is intended to serve not only
those Jews living in it but the
whole Jewish people, including
those who never expected to set
tie in it. We must establish
working partnership between Is
rael's scholars and creative artists
and the creative artists and Jew
iSh scholars Of the diaspora." In
other words, only through the
participation of Jews everywhere
can the Jewish tradition, which

ISRAEL FEIDEN
p. o. Box ass
ST. Augustine. Fla.

OOAy IL, 4OOA
Dear Is,
want to comment briefly on
this weeks column by David
Schwartz in The Southern Jewish
Weekly. He refers to the Baal
Shem Tow as Rabbi Eliezer ben
Israel. For some so years, l had
heard my father, of blessed men,
DRY, refer to him fondly in the
diminutive "R e b Yisroelikel,"
Baal Shem Tow. More formally,
he was known as 'Reb" Yisroel
ben Eliezer, Baal Shem Tow and
for the miracles he performed.
Now, just between us, if you
want to know the classic distinc-
ton between 'Reb" and Rabbi"
it is this: a ''Reb" doesn't under
stand an COS" deter of the alpha
bet) and a rabbi" Notes mir
acle.) This, of course, is crudely
translated from the yiddish.
I doubt if there are many chas-
sidim left to be shocked by this
transposition of names by David
Schwartz sufficiently to write
letter to the Editor.
Sincerely yours.

at this season that all groups

Report prepared by Abraham G.
Duker Mr.. Duker, am expert
on Jewish community problems,

comes to the conclusion that the

stone for the erection of re-
search institute on the American
Jewish community The task
of this institute should be to study
and give advice on current trends
n Jewish community organization
in general, and not only in the
field of combating bigotry !.
One of Mr.. Duker's recommends
tons in connection with the Mac
liver Report, which l liked best,
is that each national Jewish or
ganization Immediately place on
its agenda the need for a Jewish
training school for Jewish COM
munal workers of all types :.
Jewish communal work is ex-
banding very rapidly in this coun-
try, and it seems to me that only
a small percentage of the profess

The range Of our Mountain Ash
(Sorbus Americana) is New England
to Manitoba south along mountains
to Tennessee and North Carolina.
At one time the berries were used
in home remedies. Because Of the
bony seeds, the fruit attracts only
birds. They are responsible for the
distribution of the tree.
There are 80 species Of Sorbus
widely distributed over the North
ern Hemisphere, seen chiefly on
mountain slopes. While their leaves
and fruit are more spectuiar in au-
tumn, their snowy white blossoms
and bright green lacy leaves are as
glorious a sight in Spring.

so few use the tree on their lawns
Few trees produce such handsome
leaves. They are to IL inches long

in vast numbers to fill up on the
fruit in late September as they
stop over on their trek south.
The handsome foliage and clus-
tiers of creamy white flowers in May
and June show up against feathery
leaves. The slender spreading

ing that you defer your finesse of
the queen.
Lead a small spade and put In
the nine from dummy. If Daye
started with both ten and jack, it
will take the king to win it. Then
your troubles would be over.
If the nine lost to the jack or
ten, you would be no worse off

sure spade loser in any case. You
could still finesse the queen just
as you did"
Mr.. Abel was right. Don't take
a finesse which will set you if it
loses, until you have exhausted
every other possibility.
