Siqns of Maturity

The Jewish community of Phoenix, IKE PnoenN
itself and the reasons has experienced remark
able growth during these post-World War Ii years.
Where decade and half ago, there were only rev
hundred Jevs in the Phoenix area there now some
10000 of us. .
But it is not enough to measure community by
its numbers There other measurements TO be ap-
Piled One of them-possibly the most lmportant one
maturity And lately events have occurred to give SUD-
stance to the belief that emergen maturity is taxing
place within our youthful burgeoning Jewish commun-
ity.
Tn January the Community Revival Dinner launch
no the United Jewish Welfare Fund drive turned out TO
be the biggest and most successful affair of It's KIND IN
years More than $50 people jammed the banquet nal
and nledped in excess of $I25 900 to start the campaign
In Anrl the Warsaw Ghetto yahrzeit observance
at Temple Beth Israel drew another large turnout 80
more recently did the Israel Bar Mitzvah ceebratlon

However the situation is not quite such as to war

Another shortcoming in communal life should
be mentioned There many Jews In the Phoemx area

Sniping Continues

With many immediate major world problems oc-
cupyng the attention of President Kennedy and Secre
tary of State Dean RuSk officials in the State De-
partment are continuing their pro-Arab sniplng at
Israel This is primarily due to the fact that the State
Department has not found time to anayze the Arab
Israel conflict in the light of views expressed by Mr.
Kennedy who promised to make every effort to help
settle this conflict.
Several weeks ago the question arose in pro-lsrael
organizations in this country whether President Ken
nedy should be asked to carry out this promise These
organizations sent joint memorandum to the secretary
of state in which they urged the American government
to undertake immediate efforts to bring Israel and the
Arabs to conference table, However the Israel govern
ment urged the State Department not to be hasty IN
taking steps to bring about such conference.
In the Israel governments view, no purpose would
be served in taking open dramatic steps unless the
ground were first prepared properly The lsraehs
are mindful of what has happened on some occasions
such as the proposed summit meetings. which were call
ed without sufficient preparation "
Today the Arab leaders more vocal in assalng
Israel than they have been for many years The present
moment is therefore considered most nauspclous Tor
direct ArabIsrae peace talks. Fortified by MOSCOW
with modern arms President Nasser of the mite q
Arab Republic is now talking of destroying Israel

Eyes On AIgiers

Jewish organizations in this country are keeping
an eye on the talks between the French government and
the leaders of the Algerian rebels The fate OF about
10000 Jews is involved.
The Jews in Algeria have been enjoying fulltledg.
ed French citizenship since the Cremieux Decree OF
1870 Cremieux Jew at that time French
Minister of Justice and Algeria part of France
Algerian rebel leaders indicate now that when they Sc
cure from the French government the independence OF
Algeria they will consider the Jews there as Algerian
citizens natives of the country for centuries This
may mean-judging by experience in Morocco-that
Jews may not be permitted to leave Algeria and may
become subject to determinations also in other ways
At present, French citizens, Algerian Jews can
move freely to France and enjoy the same rights as
other French citizens This privilege will cease should
the Moslem government of independent Algeria IN
sist on imposing Algerian citizenship upon them;
The French government expects the Algerian
rebels to agree that the Jews should at least be given
he RIGHT to choose whether they want to remain French
citizens or whether they want to accept Algerian cltl
zenship Some Algerian Jews taking no chances and
are moving with their capital to France now wnIe m
they are still in position to do so. -JIA
