Terrorism Opposed

Sen. John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, deplorlng
what he termed the appalling repeated defiance of law
and authority with the recent series of ancvl rights
bombings in the South has introduced bill to pro-
hbit interstate transportation of explosives intended
for illegal use.
The senator reported AT bombings attempted
bombings in 10 Southern states over 17month period
"Al follow discernible pattern both in their meth
cd of operation and in the object of the attack he
noted In every instance the object of the attack
a person property which, in some way might be
identified with the civil rights discussion"
He charged that the bombings aimed at intmi-
dating people from exercising constitutional rights to
vote, to assemble and to religious freedom. Two Jew
ish synagogues were among the bombed buildings
"It is my hope that the BILL when enacted will
authority for the Department of Justice to act
promptly if the bombings continue that the criminals
may be apprehended while the memory of the offense
is still fresh in the minds of possible witnesses We
must not allow condition to continue in which the law
and law enforcement agencies poweress to punish
crimes. We cannot condone situation which permits
state boundaries to nsulate interstate criminal
spiracy."
The senator's proposal, of course, is not solution
to the civil rights problem. But it could we'll be de-
terrent to the of wanton violence an argument
by foes of civil rights.
Most important Kennedy's bill shows that at least
someone in Washington is concerned with the dignity
and rights of man. the basis of God given democracy
in any land AS long the flame burns the hope for

Rabbi Robert Cords, a former
president of the Synagogue Council
of America, suggested that space
exploration might kindle greater
faith in God.
"If the ancients," he said, "saw
Gods glory pervading the earth,
how much greater should be mans
reverence when he sees Gods
manifestations on horizons wider
than ever dreamed of in the past. /"
ON THE OTHER hand, DR.. Abra-

logical Seminary, declared, ITO

their power over the earth, one

right to master the forces of the
earth. We were not given the right
to master the forces of other PLAN

Here is DR.. Heschel once again
expressing view which may seem
to be out of date, impractical. naive.
Yet, knowing this thoughtful and
penetrating scholar, we are given
pause. DR.. Heschel'S opinions have
way of growing more important
as we ponder on them.
LET US REMEMBER the biblical
verse: 'Ha-shomayim shomayim

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, June
l (JTA-Israel's "1evel of living
-as judged by statistics regarding
births, infant mortality, crude death
rate, and life expectancy-is, on
the whole, far above the compare
Bile level of the other countries In
the Middle East In some respects,
LsraeIS "level of living" compares
very favorably with those of the
most advanced countries in the
world, like the United States. Switz-
erland, and Sweden.
These were among the outstand-
ing facts derived here from the
ninth edition of the United Nations
Topographic Yearbook.
ISrae1's infant mortality rate
the number of deaths under year
old, per 1000 population-was 35.9
for Jewish children in 1856. The
comparable rates in some of Is
rael's neighboring countries are
reported in the yearbook as 1886
for Egypt; 1875 for Jordan, and
53.6 for Syria.
Israel's "crude" death rate-the
number of deaths per 1000 popula-
tion-was 6.3 for the Jewish popu-
latfon in 1856. Over a period of 20
years in Israel, and in Palestine
under the British Mandate, the
death rate declined by 31.6 per-
cent.

ITALIAN ELECTION-Last week
end the Italian Parliamentary
Election was held. We had con-
sidered it of such importance to
the World that we had publicly
! suggested that Americans with
relatives in Italy communicate
with those relatives urging them
to cast their votes against the
Communists.
Ten years ago, in similar cleo
ton situation, the Italian people
voted against the Communists and
this victory for free people laid
the basis for strong alliance and
a close friendship between Italy
and the United States which re-
, suited in the restoration of Italy
as a formidable power in the
West and a leader in the family
of nations. The 1858 Italian cleo
ton was a crucial one, with the re-
suits significant to the world. 1t
seems that again the Communists
have been voted down.

advantage of a loophole in our

and sending them in as leather
shoes. This practice adversely af-
fected the Maryland tennis shoe
makers, who employ many Mary
landers. We took an active part
in putting through the Senate a
new bill which would protect our
Maryland citizens against this
abuse on the part of the foreign
