immigration Of Jews from
No. Africo Is No Burden
On IsrueI's Economy

JERUSALEM, (JTA)-The Jew
ish Agency denied statements
made at the recent Consultative
Conference Of Jewish Organiza-
tons in London that the mass i'm
migration of North African Jews
has upset the economic balance in
Israel.
In a statement issued by the
Agency's immigration department
it was averted that not only did
this migration not interfere with
1sraers economy, but it served to
increase production. This is par
ticularly true in the field of agri-
culture, statement said, because
two-thirds of the new immigrants
go directly to agricultural settle
ments and one-third go to new
development areas.

Florida Governor Signs
Bill Ending Bios In
Resort Advertising

MIAMI. tJTA) Governor Le-
Roy Collins signed into law an an
ti-discriminatorY advertising bill
passed by the State Legislature
earlier this year. putting an end to
religious discrimination in resort
advertising.
The new law prohibits hotels
and resorts from advertising that
a prospective guest ''is not well
come, or is Objectionable or is
not acceptable because of his re-
ligion.' Violators are guilty of a
misdemeanor, subject to fine of
$500 and a 90-day prison term.
The need for such legislation was
expressed by the Anti-Defamation
League of B'nai Birth, following
a 1853 survey conducted by its
Miami office, which showed a
widespread use of anti-Jewish
phraseology in tourist advertis-
ing throughout the state.

Knesset. Approves New
Army Code; Death
Penalty for Treason

JERUSALEM, (JTA)-The Is
rael Parliament gave its final ap-
proval to a new army code to SUI
persede the Haganah military code
which has been in effect in the
country's armed forces since 1913.
The code will affect members
of the armed forces, civilian en-
ployees of the army and private
firms working for the armed ser
vices. One Of the major features
of the new system of military leg
islation. is its continuation of the
death sentence for treason. The
House was divided on this point,
but accepted it after an impas-
stoned plea by Defense Minister
David Ben Gurion.

MankindS First Vacation

Elizabeth instructed English clergymen to tell the
people that while they were required to attend
Sabbath services, after the services they were to
return to work. In the light of such things, we
can understand why the Jews were severe about
Sabbath observance. Otherwise, it would probably
never have won its way There are too many Sc
necas in the world
Nowadays, we have more than the weekly
rest day. We have a number of other holidays
and most of us rest more than one day week.
We like Heine, who said, he was so good a
Jew that not always being sure he was observing
the right day as Sabbath, he sometimes rested
the whole week.
Most of us too, take summer vacation The
vacation idea is growing and with "automaton"
making new strides in industry, we are likely
to get more vacation in the future. If we get
enough vacation, work itself may become attrac-
tive, or in other words, it may come to be re-
garded as kind of vacation to go to work That
really would be the ideal state When work has
become pleasure, what more can we ask?

Despite the fact that minor

for its future in the minor leagues.
And he bases his optimism on

stead of the death of minor league

PLAIN TALK.
No Stranger in Paradise
BY ALFRED sEcAL

~AAA 04A0A6A1TA 4SLCSA AO1A1 NSW
York: Dear Segal: I've been
quite disturbed by an incident in
one of New York's Jewish COM
munities, but, indeed, what New
York community isn't Jewish?
'It has to do with friend of
mine whom / shall call Nose in
this letter, though his name wasn't
really Nose. Nose died recently
and I was at the funeral and
say it was nice funeral, though
it was conducted by a Methodist
minister who gave Nose all the
tribute that was due him, good
man that Nose was.
"You ask me how did it happen
that Nose was buried by a Meth
odist? The answer is that Nose
had married a Methodist, a fine
lady, by the way. When it came
time for Nose to be buried, his
wife asked her Methodist minister
to take charge of him.
81 am in no position to know
what Moses ghost thought about
that He was brought up Ortho-
dox. Moses brothers wentsto his
widow and suggested that since
he had been brought up that way
maybe it would be respectful to
Nose to have a rabbi side by
side with the Methodist at the
funeral, to give him a Jewish
send-off as well. Moses wife was
perfectly willing. She thought it
was perfectly proper for the rabbi,
side by side with the Methodist,
to speak to God for Nose.
But when the rabbi was APP
preached by Noses brothers to
serve at the funeral with the
Methodist minister, what do you
guess the rabbi said? He said pos
itively No. He wasn't going to
bury Nose with the assistance of
the Methodist. Nose would have
to be buried all Jewish or all
Methodist.
$50 he was buried exclusively
Methodist. That disturbs Noses
friends: Was Nose a Stranger in
Paradise when he arrived there
since he was without recommen-
dalton of a rabbi?
what you think, Mr.. Segal,
would be greatly appreciated by
all of Noses friends. We wonder,
too, what they think of the rabbits
attitude in Paradise? I am not
signing my name because l hest
tate to put myself in the middle
of what may turn out to be hot
controversy"
Segal's reply: Well, sir, as
newsman = through so years Il
have always been diligent to a.
void slanting news reports to the
tune of my own opinions. So, as
the objective reporter that am,
l went to the source of this mat
ter concerning Nose. Indeed l
interviewed Abednego who is my
favorite angel in heaven. Some
may wonder how l make contact
with Angel Abednego, put, then,
a proper reporter never is sup
posed to reveal how he gets his
news.
Anyway, l was in the big chair
in my living room, thinking all
about Nose, when all OF sudden
Abednego was there.
