my country is quite different.
The amount Of activity here
is q most striking fact" He
observed 1t first. he said,
during a visit in 1854, but it
was not until later that Il
came to understand this ire
mendous activity which has
made your country so rich"
The envoy has himself been
very busy during his tour in
the States. AS the leader of
Libya's delegation to the 18th
and 18th sessions Of the
United Nations. he has spent
much Of his time committing
between Washington and
New York and devoted many
week ends to business.
Because of this, and also
because he is naturally re-
firing, Ambassador Jerbi has
not been in the local spotlight
as frequently as have many
chiefs Of mission here. But
he's left his mark.
A State Department ON
cial yesterday described him
as a very effective" Ambas-
sador. "a very affable man
and a very good friend Of
the United States" I'VE are"
he concluded. genuinely
sorry to see him co."
So. apparently, are MEM
bers Of the embassy staff
said one, There's perfect
harmony when he's around"
Mr.. Jerbi's proposed sue
cessor is DR.. Mansour FAITH
Kekhia. who was Libya's first
representative to the White
House. after the legation was
opened here in 1854. He left
in 1855 and has been serving
as the Libyan Ambassador in
Rome.
Ambassador Jerbi, who will
be 81 years old In May. viii
return to Libya and there be
under disposal of the Min
lister Of Foreign Affairs" he
said.
He has had o distinguished
career with his young gov
eminent. Before coming to
Washington. he served as
Under-Secretary Of State for
Foreign Affairs for four
years. In 1850, he was sent
to the Lbyan Constitutional
Assembly a. Cyrenaican Rep
resentative and later was Sc
lected as its Secretary-Gen-
eral. In 1851. he was APP
pointed Director Of the Prime
Minister'S Once Of the new
Federal Government.

Honor Given
ByHadassah

Mrs. Sidney Pickelner, former
HadaSsah Southwest regional pres
ident, was honored with an Hadas-
sab Tina" award at the Phoenix
chapters recent midwinter lunch
con.
An Ina certificate represents
5000, the amount needed to care
for one child for one year under
HadaSsah's Youth Aliyah program
of youth rehabilitation and reset
tlement in Israel.
Mrs. Robert A. Wagner, Youth
Aliyah chairman, reported spontan-
eouS contributions at the luncheon
provided almost enough money to
cover an additional Ina certificate
and that she is still receiving con-
tributions from persons not present
at the dinner who wish to honor
Mrs. Pickelner.
Mrs. Pickelner this week is at
tending Hadassah's midwinter ma
tional board meeting in New York
as national service woman. She
was president of the Southwest re-
gion from 1854 to 1856 and headed
the Phoenix chapter from 1850 to
1852. In 1856 she was selected to
a 25-woman group for a special
workshop mission in Israel.

Dear Editor:


We should like to go on record
as protesting the publication of the
Contributors Honor Roll for the
United Jewish Welfare Fund.
1t has always been our belief
that the amount a person contrib
utes to charities is private affair,
and the persons ability to give is
usually best judged by that indi-
vidual. We do agree that an out
standing donation should receive
publicity-with the donors permis-
sion-since it may spur additional
contributions.
But since we cannot be cognizant
of each family's personal circum-
stances, publication of the Honor
Roll can be source of embarrass-
ment to many people. And in the
final analysis, the personal salts
faction derived from contributing
to a worthy cause is its own re-
ward.
Then, too there is always the
possibility of error, and a mistake
in this regard does damage which
cannot be retracted. We were en-
barrassed by the incorrect report
of our contribution, and while we
realize that it is difficult to avoid
errors in book of this sort, elimi-
nation of the book would solve the
problem.
We now regret that we did not

co. They work five hours in the
morning and attend classes in the
afternoon. Subjects taught are He
brew, mathematics, chemistry
physics, geography, Bible, and
French.
THE YOUTHS two living units
of stone were donated by Ameri-
can Hadassah groups. During the
recent Chanuka holiday new two
room school was opened with spe-
cial dedication ceremonies.
And how do the "soft" Ameri-
cans fit into this scene? We who
worship the TV screen, automo-
bileS, foam rubber mattresses, and
T-bone steaks.
Shakam threw themselves into
the work schedule determined to
do everything the regular kibbutz-
niks did. Our first labor was spent
picking plums. Gently we placed
the green fruits into the sacks. We
were warned to keep our finger
nails from piercing the soft skins.
AFTER THAT came the grape
harvest. Clip, clip went the shears
as huge punches of black and green
grapes piled up in the boxes. AS
worked, I recalled a film I saw
about grape harvesting in South
ern France. Our heads were Gov.
cred with hats to ward off the in
tense rays of the sun. On our feet
were sturdy work boots.
We soon discovered that not all
jobs are "a piece of cake" There
was washing dishes for eight hours.
chopping weeds with a "toreeya''
Qsraeli style hoe), sorting rotten
potatoes, Shoveling excrement for
FERTILIZER, cleaning lavatories and
showers, etc. But this is a world
OF sweets and sours.
THE LANGUAGE barrier was
quite frustrating the first months.
we spoke English but no one else
did. Using our few Hebrew words.
we supplemented conversations
with Yiddish, French, Spanish, and
many gestures. Never before had
l realized the significance of lam
guage.

People refer to us as new immi-
grants. The very word brings to
mind bewildered foreigner in
strange clothes, walking down the
gangplank carrying his few valu-
ables in tattered bundles.
Now I'm the foreigner. 1 don't
understand all that people say. I
can't read the newspapers. my
clothes are not the same as the
natives.
ON THE KIBBUTZ all life re-
wolves around daily work. Persons
are referred to as good or poor
workers. But there is no pressure
to produce.
Chaverim rise and go to work
as individuals There are no bu-
giles or sirens, no foreman to prod
one to produce. A person may rest
when he is tired. If he is ill, he
remains in bed. The nurse treats
him and brings him food.
There are no real responsible
ties. You perform your eight hours
of work, shower, and rest. Life is
simple for us of Shakam.
NOW WE KNOW what it is to
be wet with perspiration, dry with
thirst, weak with fatigue. There
is time to contemplate on things
we thought important in America.
We are experiencing the basic ne
cessities of life without the false
paint of luxury.
All of us are city dwellers at
heart. On our days off we eagerly
seek a city for the shops, the peo-
pie, and the entertainment. We
take to the road with Imapsack
and pleading thumb.
