Guest speaker will be DR..
William Lindsay Young, vice
president of the National Con-
ference of Christians and
Jews. At the age of 13 DR..
Young left school to work in
the coal mines of Illinois. La
ter he trained for the minis
try and education. From 1886
to 1914 he was president of
Park College in Missouri.
Earlier he was professor and
director of the School of Re-
ligiOn, U. of Montana.
The conference, as tn e
name implies, is a voluntary
association of Christians and
Jews. However the scope of
its work goes far beyond re-
lationS between tn e two
groups. When the associa-
ton was formed in 1928 it's
purpose was the relatively
simple task of better relations
between Catholics, Protest
ants and Jews. In the devel-
opment of the program it was
soon recognized that preju-
dice cuts across every line of
community activity, includes
conflicts between members of
the same group; in industry,
in schools.
So, today, the work of the
N a t i o nal Conference, DR..
Young explains, is wherever
they find bad human rela-
tions, not if it involves Catho-
lies, ProteStantS, Jews.
Consideration is being Civ
en- to the appointment of a
part-time director in Tucson
to supervise the educational
program. The Conference
now operates in so cities in

FUror Over
Arab Attack

Indignation is at a high
point as a result of the mas
sacre Wednesday in the Ne
gev of II persons en- route by
bus from Elath to BeerSheba.
Four Israeli soldiers were on
the bus as escorts and two
were wounded. The highway
is II miles from the Jordan
border.
Survivors gave a graphic
description of the attack by
Arabs. Having first killed the
driver, plunging the bus into
a ditch, the attackers then
boarded it and sprayed the
riders with submachine-gun
fire.
U.N. observers were dis
patched to the spot immedi-
ately to prepare findings.
Meanwhile Israel is expected
to appeal to the U.N. in the
latest incident in a series that
has resulted in increased ten
sion along the Jordan-Israel
border.

can only serve to ease the way for
further progress, not alone in the
social structure but in the eco
nomic growth of the South"
The ADJ leader said it was the
Strongest victory yet in the judi
cial evolution that has swept the
South in recent years."
This was in reference to prev
ious Court decisions outlawing
racial restrictive covenants in
housing, segregation in interstate
travel and other Court rulings
which opened the way for the adj
mittance of Negroes to college
and graduate schools on a non
segregation basis.
The ADJ was one Of several
organizations which filed briefs

Iment that the separate but equal"
doctrine was unconstitutional and
contrary to public welfare.

that the amendment was an anti-Communist mea-

it. The only opposition spokesman in the hearing
room at the time were representatives of Jewish

David A. Brody, Washington representative
of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai Birth was
permitted to testify He pointed out that prior test
imony unfortunately took the form of debate
between Christians and Jews whereas actually
many Christians share the opposition views OF
major Jewish groups. Brody questioned the exploit
alton and abuse of the hearings by so-called mill
tant Christian Patriots" whose testimony sought to
align Christians against Jews. The Militant Christ

religious prejudice by characterizing Jewish or
carnations as anti Christian. Brody told the sub
committee that it is preferable to have religion as
an active influence in the hearts and minds of the
people rather than as a legal stipulation in the
Constitution.
The lunatc fringe has lobbied for many years
for Federal legislation proclaiming Christianity as
part of the law of the land. Leading Christian
groups have generally remained aloof from this
question Only the so called fundamentaliStS
took an active role in support of the amendment.
Americas tradition of religious freedom was
cited to the subcommittee by Glenn L. Archer,
executive director of Protestants and Other Amer
leans United for Separation of Church and State.
Archer said the amendment would "work revolu-
ton in the American way of life. He said ''non-
Christians would be placed under the stigma of
having to be excused by Congress from subscrib-
ing Fundamentally to the Constitution and would
obviously be reduced to second-class citizens. The
amendment, he said, "would set the clock back by
centuries and lose for America her coveted role of
civilized leadership.

DEFENDING PAPA ABRAHAM
BY ALFRED SEGAL

DEFENDING PAPA ABRAHAM
What was my shock the other
day TO be told that our old Father
Abraham may not be our papa!
How long have we venerated him
as the legitimate papa of all of US!
The incredible news casting doubt
on his paternity came TO me from
the American Council for Judism
1.-The anti-Zionist group). What
shall one think when told thar the
father one has been sure Of from
infancy. isn't really?
What made it all the more dew
astating was the fact that Abra-
hams legitimacy was being CUES
toned by a Hebrew scholar of
very good repute: DR.. Theodore
Caster of Dropsie College, Phil,
who recently was addressing the
tenth annual conference of the
American Conference for Juda-
ism.
In a publicity release the Coun-
Gil quoted him as having said that
THE notion that Jews are descend.
ed from man named Abraham
is simply a popular saga rather
than an accurate historical rec
ord" DR. Casters idea is that the
Papa Abraham story mirrors the
outlook of a far later age"
I don't know how the members
of the American Council for judi
aism feel to find Papa practically
Snatched out of their Judaism.
But as for me-whom am ! then,

If only for the sake Of my own

always looked up TO as superior
person. have said that even if
he had never lived. it would have
been a good idea to invent him:
for he has really been a great and
good papa who through the mil
lenia has shown his children how
to be decent.
I have come to admire him the
more in thes evil times when it
is the practice to ascribe guilt by
association. Papa Abraham was
so very much more enlightened
than a lot of people in this goth
century who condemn other per-
sons because they happened to
know, or to live next door to, or
ride in the same bus with some
other persons in whom guilt had
been found.
Yes. though Abraham had no
benefit of modern improvements
no radio. no television. no auto
mobile. no electric refrigerators.
no H-bombs-he was more civil
lied than many of our contempor-
aries who have all these things.
Consider: The time God spoke TO
Abraham about the wickedness Of
the city of Sodom and of His in
tention TO do something about it:
in that time Abraham stood yet
before the Lord" and spoke to
Him for justice in behalf of Sod
