River Gorden To
Hold Open House
BY Mrs. VIM. Silverman

Plans for the hospitality hours,
the Hobby Shop work displays,
Tombola awards, and a coloring
contest for the children to be
held at River Garden Home for
the Aged March %, coinciding
with the Homes annual birthday
celebration were made at the
last meeting of the Ladies He
brew Sheltering Aid Society.
Open House will be held be-
tween the hours of 2 and S p. m.
Sunday and all friends of River
Garden are cordially invited to
visit the home. Mrs. Nat Cohen,
Mrs. Max Friedman and Mrs.
Sam Byran of the Ladies Aid So
ciety have charge of general
plans for the reception and re-
freshments to be served. They
will be assisted by Is members
of the organization.
A Hobby Shop Fair, conducted
by residents of the Home, will be
part of the days activities. The
articles produced in the Hobby
Shop, under the occupational
therapy program with Mrs. Sid
Mack and Mrs. Elsa Feingold di-
recting the work, will be display
ed in colorful booths on the river
front lawn. The residents will be
in attendance to sell the articles
they made.
Another feature of the after
noon will include a coloring con-
test for children. Awards in the
contest will be made according to
age groups. All children are eli
gible to compete.

Jews Languish in Prison

make any kind of issue about the
release of all the passengers.
4. The arrest and detention of
passengers in transit is a fragrant
defiance of international proce-
dure-and a gesture so bold that
the Government of Iraq would
surely have hesitated to make it
had there been the slightest fear
of any really serious protest by
the U.N., the U. S. Or the British
Government.
The entire episode which reads
like stranger than-fiction"
chapter of a wartime novel seems
to have aroused no great clamor
of indignation anywhere but in
Israel. There, the brazen abduc-
ton of three people, nationals of
a sovereign state, has been taken
seriously. The Prime Minister has
made an icy and angry statement.
IsraeTs Ambassador has present
ed urgent notes to the Secretary
General of the United Nations
and to the U. S. Secretary Of
State, asking that someone inter-
vene on behalf of these unfortu-
nate people.
But the story, fantastic and out
rageous though it is, seems to
have stirred no ones imagination
outside the borders of the Jewish
State. It is to be hoped and ex-
pected, that one or the other of
the mighty powers will eventu-
ally persuade Iraq to return the
captives. But the moral will GER
tainly not have been lost on the
six other Arab states. Kidnapping
can now be added to the list of
international crimes that can be
"gotten away" with-if the num-
Der of victims involved is not too
large. This lesson will be absorb
ed just as another recent lesson
that it is quite all right to murder
one or two Israeli border settlers
per night-but the number of
those killed must remain discreet
for murder en- masse is still
frowned upon in civilized circles.
1t is, to say the least, unfortu-
nate that three human beings
must suffer until international
conscience and responsibility are
aroused from the apathy which
envelops them.

This week / am going to tell
you a story - not an ordinary
yarn, packed with action and sus-
penSe, and set in an exotic for
eign capital, celebrated in fiction
for centuries as site of intrigue
and excitement. But this story is
a present-day one and unlike most
adventure stories-it has a moral.
It all started a few weeks ago,
on January 8, when a British civil
aircraft enroute from Nicosia,
Cyprus, to Teheran, Iran, made
an emergency landing in Bagh-
dad. There were three Israelis
aboard the plane. Two of them
were women. One, in addition to
her Israeli passport, was also in
possession of a Dutch passport.
All three were taken into Gus
tody and detained. They are still
in detention. No information has
been vouchSafed by the Iraqi
Government as to their welfare
or whereabouts. No questions re-
garding these three abducted Is
raelis have been answered by the
Iraqis.
A strange, tony silence has
greeted queries made by the Sec
retary-G General of the United Ma
tons, the International Red Cross
and the International Civil Avia-
ton Organization. The only state
ment made at all runs somewhat
as follows: the three Israelis are
citizens of an enemy" country
and anyhow number of Iraqis
are held prisoner in Israel and
have been incarcerated there for
the past five years, so this kid
mapping IS quite Justlflable
What are the facts?
l. There are no Iraqis held in
Israel. All questions relating to
Israeli or Arab prisoners Of war
were settled over five years ago.
2, The Government of Israel
has always with not a single ex-
ample to the contrary permitted
nationals of Arab countries to
proceed on their journeys under
similar circumstances.
3. The captain of the British
plane raised no objection to the
Israelis being forcibly removed
from his aircraft-nor did the
British Embassy, which insisted
that the plane itself be released,

SPECIAL GROUPS MUST PAY
FOR SPECIAL BENEFITS

The increment method is used in
Oregon as a basis for ALLEGATION of
highway costs among the various
classes of road users. This method is
based on the postulate that any special
cost which is incurred for the benefit
of any special group should be borne
by that group. The procedure en-
ployed in this method consists of de-
termining the costs of providing ia
cilities for the basic class of vehicle,
including automobiles, station wag-
ons, pickups, panel trucks, and other
vehicles of the same general size and
weight. Then, the additional cost re-
quired to provide facilities which will
accommodate each succeeding size
and weight class is computed. With
this information as guide, the sched-
ule of rates for the mileage tax is
established to recover the appropriate
share of total highway costs from
heavy motor transport and to dis
tribute this share in accordance with
the responsibility therefor.
1t cannot be claimed that this meth
Cd of allocating costs and the accom-
panying weight-mile tax for their dis
tribution represent perfection, but
within the limits of practicability,

Bill 0utlawing Segregation
On Carriers OkaVed

WASHINGTON, d. C.-LDNS)-
A bill that would impose $1,000 fine
on carriers which segregate passen-
gers in Interstate commerce has been
approved by the House Commerce
Committee. The vote was 10 to 7.
1t was surprise move and imme-
diately raised the possibility of civil
rights hassle in the closing days of
this session.
The bill was introduced by Rep.
John w. Heselton (R-Mass.) who
said personally Pm optimistic" that
the bill will be approved by the House
and Senate this session.
He said the bill establishes very
clearly the committees efforts to
implement the clear law of the land
which declares that segregation is
unconstitutional"
The committee specified that a
carrier or an agent of carrier must
"wilfully" and "unlawfully" segre-
gate a person to be liable for the fine.
Eliminated from the bill was phrase
that would make carrier liable to
fine if it otherwise discriminates"
against passenger"
