A Settling Influence

For the first time since the seizure OF the Suez Cana
bv Egypt last August, the United States has taken
democracies in the Middle East.
Although the West suffered shocking setback
through the canals naturalization by Egyptian Dicta
tor Nasser it wasn't until Britain and France
forced from the by United States-sponsored
resolution in the United Nations last November that
a dangerous vacuum was created.
The Soviet Union has been jockeying ever since to
into that vacuum, thereby fulfilling centuries
old ambition and acquiring gateway to all OF Africa
Last week President Eisenhower addressed Con-

The World Over

Wise award presented recently by
the American Jewish Congress to
Maurice Samuel, for his "Signifi-
cant contributions over three dec
AIDES" to the field of Jewish educa-
ton and culture.
Three decades, is it?
It seems to me that I discovered
Mr.. Samuel overnight.
True, I had read some of his
important writings earlier and even
recommended them to other read
ers. But it was with Certain People
of the Book" that I became "fan."
In it, Mr.. Samuel's analysis of
some familiar and unfamiliar Bible
characters was profound an d
thought provoking, yet it was writ
ten with the most urbane wit i'm
aginable. And his remarkable
handling of the English language
made the reading literary adven-
ture. It was a book for the sophis-
ticated, the knowing, and the intel
lectually curious.
NOW COMES Mr.. Samuel's lat
est book, "The Professor and the
Fossil" and it is, in way; the an
swer to a prayer.
From the moment when Profess
sor Toynbee's "a Study of History"
came to light, and the scholarly
world was faced with his evalua-
ton of Jewry (the foSsilized re-
mains of an, anvient and glorious
"Syriac" culture) and his attack
upon Israel Gnheritor of NaZiisO :,
it became apparent that someone
would have to come forward and
answer Professor Toynbee.
Now that it has been done, one
can only say gratefully, "It HAD
to be Maurice Samuel!"
For here is student of history,
a man of the world, a learned Jew,
with the manner and style neces-
sary to make an historical work
into a bestseller.
IN "THE PROFESSOR and the
Fossil" Mr.. Samuel IS scholarly
and lmowledgeable. He has keen
insight into the development Of
peoples and movements. Yet he is
warm toward a Judaism which he
deeply understands.
I marked endless passages for
quotation, only to find that I should
never be able to choose the few
which space here permits. 1t
would be unwise in any event to
excerpt from Mr.. Samuel's writing.
His book must be read in full,
and I offer to all who were left Of
Tended but speechless by Professor
Toynbee. I offer it to those who
seek clue to the astonishing sur
vival of Judaism. recommend it
with eagerness to those who search
for intellectual pleasure in the writ
ten word and find it all too rarely
these days.
I believe that the American Jew
ish Congress has honored itself in
honoring Mr.. Samuel, one of the
most brilliant thinkers on the Jew
ish scene today.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1957-01-11

Expressing his gratitude for the
acquisition of the property, equip
ped to house 1000 people, was Fred
Ziegellaub, director of the JDC
welfare program in Austria.
CAT A TINE when we are bare
ly meeting basic needs and are
struggling to keep our heads above
water, due to the uninterrupted
flow of escapes from Hungary, the
Nansen Home is a significant con-
tribution to the comprehensive pro-
gram on behalf of more than 5000
Jewish refugees now being served
by JDC in partnership with the
Jewish community organizations of
Austria" Mr.. ziegellaub said.
Making available this property
to us will help relieve the pressure
upon us and enable us to better
serve the Jewish men, women, and
children among the thousands of
HungarianS still crossing the border
and still seeking refuge in Austria" !"
THE FRDTJOF Nansen Home at
Bad Kreuzen is a former health
sanatorium, located between Vi
enna and Linz. It was purchased
by the Norwegian-Hungarian Relief
Society with voluntary contribu-
tons made by the Norwegian peo-
pie and was fully equipped by them
with beds, linen, blankets, and
chinaware for up to 1000 persons.
The Austrian government will ad-
minister the installation, with sup
Elementary services and financing
provided by JDC. JDC, major Am
erican agency aiding distressed
Jews abroad, receives its funds
chiefly from American Jewry
through the United Jewish Appeal.
The Nansen Home supplements a
wide variety of installations and
services built up to help the 5000
escapes registered and under the
care of JDC and local Jewish COM
munity organizations. They include
two installations donated by the
