Considerable anxiety exists am

Editor, The News:
On behalf of the Phoenix chap
ter of the American Council for
Judaism, wish to take exceptlon
to your editorial dealing with DR..
Berger's trip to the Middle East.
First, it represents inaccurate re-
porting; for example, it states that
DR.. Berger did not include Israel
in his itinerary, when the fact OF
the matter is that he did go to
Israel as part of his study OF tine
whole Middle Eastern situation.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1955-09-30
Letters to the Editor

Second, DR.. Berger is quoted out
|of context and, therefore, the
meaning of his words is distorted.
DR.. Berger will be in Phoenix
and will report on his trip to a
public meeting, and the facts he
will present should be of great sig
nificance to all Americans of Jew
ish faith in Phoenix.
