THE CHELMITES thought
that a wonderful idea, but
how was it to be done?
Berel with the long nose
suggested they gather all the
step ladders in town and
place one on top of the other
and so reach the moon.
Again Gimpel rose. He had
another idea. He had a barrel
of borscht in his backyard
and he often saw the moon
shining in it. If they could
come to his yard the follow
ing evening with some rope
he would throw a cloth over
the barrel, tighten the cord
and hold the moon, so when
a dark night came along,
they could take it out and
have plenty of light.
1t was a wonderful idea,
everybody agreed. They had
seen the reflection of the
moon in the barrel of borScht
too, so they came to his back
yard with the necessary i'm
plements and, before you
could say Jack Robinson,
they had captured the moon
and secured it fast.
But, alas, a week later, on
a very dark night, the Chelm-
ties came to take out the
moon, but when they united
the cloth - they looked in
and saw no moon.
"It must have melted in the
borscht," said Gimpel.
Eyes, that's So" said ev-
eryone, lit melted in the
borscht."

THE ATTEMPT to reach
the moon is not a new story
from the Jewish point of
view. The man in the moon
is held by some to be the
Israelite who, in the Book of
Numbers, we are told, was
caught chopping wood. AS a
punishment, he was trans
ported to the moon.
But there is another story
of the moon associated with
the Jews of Chelm. AS most
everyone knows, the Chelm-
ties were a very wise people.
To be sure, some called them
fools, but then extremes
meet; great wisdom and fol-
ly are often indistinguish-
able.

Dialogue In Israel Raised
Manifold Jewish Problems

of the American Jewish community had a
chance of survival
Mr. Ben-Gurion accepted the submis-
sion that a separate Jewish community
could exist in the U.S. but what would the
prospects be when the us. becomes a
unitary nation? True, there would still be
Jewish religion, but is not Jewish religion
a national religion? Also Abba Eban de-
clared that the American community's
Jewish identity and sense of historic
purpose can probably only be preserved
by our action and influence" and Pro-
fessor Nathan Rottenstreich agreed with
Ben-Gurion that a full Jewish life was
possible only in Israel attributing "his-
torical superiority" to Israel vis-a-vis any
mode of Jewish life outside Israel
While DIR. Joachim Prinz conceded that
organized American JeWry and Jewish
education were "at kindergarten level"
most of the American speakers vehement
ly rejected the dark prophecies regarding
the prospects of the community's Jew
iShneSS.
Indeed never before did the question
of Israels spiritual supremacy as the TO-
Gus of Jewish life come up with such
sharpness and meet with such blunt rebut
tai. 'We are not in danger of assimila
ton nor of losing our identity. Our future
is not dark one," thundered Mr.. Lowell.
Don't say kaddish over u.s. said DR.. Sol
Lptzin of the New York City College,
who claimed that American Jewry was en-
tering a golden age of creativeness and
whose achievements - he said - were
no less for American Jewry than for Is
rael.
"What is a Jew was one of the in
evitable questions that came up. In the
discussion on the Jewish commitment in
the creative arts, there was general CROP
ing. DR.. Prinz summed it up. Il am Jew
ish because like it, l am Jewish because
1 am part of the Jewish community and
part of the whole Jewish people wherever
they live, because we all participated in
the dream of the State of Israel and now
participate in it's reality E. :"
1t is definition wide enough to ac-
commodate ALL In any event, the three
day dialogue proved that the time has
not yet come for more exact one - and
that there is room for the dialogue" to
be continued One should add: perhaps
on a wider scale, more representative of
the American community as a whole.
Surely one would wish to see among
the participants of such dialogues" the
American Jewish youth who was after all
the focus of the debate and whose voice
we missed.

NOW GIMPEL was the one
man in Chelm nobody ex-
pected anything of, but the
Chelmites were very demo-
cratic and one man called
out, LET Gimpel speak,"
Yes, everybody chimed in,
LET Gimpel speak, we will
hear Gimpel."
Gimpel began by saying
that the first thing to do is
to properly state your prob
lem. Now, he said, it was not
true that it was always dark
in the streets of Chelm. On
moonlit nights, it was quite
bright enough. Hear, Hear"
said the Chelmites, ''he's
quite right" "Yes," everyone
said, "Gimpel had hit the nail
on the head"
Our real problem, SAID
Gimpel continuing, "is to get
hold of the moon, so we can
have it available all the
time"
Hear, Hear" said the
Chelmites, that's true"
eff we could get hold of
the moon," he continued, 1--WE
would not only have light
enough at any time we
wished but, on occasion, we
could rent the moon out to
other towns"

hief J.T.A. Correspondent in Israel

JERUSALEM - The three-day Amer
ican-Israel Dialogue" sponsored by the
American Jewish Congress, that took
place in Jerusalem, was unique affair
which, one hopes, will have served only as
a beginning. The dialogue" has neither
exhausted the subject matter nor pro-
vided answers to the problem raised =
there were no winners and no losers -
but it surely pointed the way for sober
and wider evaluation of the basic and vital
problems confronting the relationship be-
tween the two great Jewish communities.
In his opening address DR.. Joachim
Prinz observed that the purpose of the
conference was not to reiterate polite
phrases about Israel and ourselves" and
indeed - and fortunately it never did
take such course. There was a rather
blunt presentation of viewpoints and even
if the desire to be blunt has carried some
of the participants bit "off course" it
served the main purpose and the Confer
ence's chief objective
The problems raised were as manifold
as they were profound and the debate re-
vealed as many areas of common ap-
proach and agreement as of conflicting
outlook
Perhaps significantly the one question
around which heated debate was going
on since the establishment of the State of
Israel - the question of aliyah from the
us. - evoked little argument. Stanley
Lowell, Vice President of the American
Jewish Congress, was knocking on an
open door when he charged that the call
to American Jewry to migrate to Israel
as group was doing great disservice to
them because it created the impression
among Americans that American Jews
had some kind of dual nationality In
fact, even Ben-Gurion, when urging a clos
er personal contact between American
Jews and Israel did not have in mind
mass immigration of American Jews.
He was urging Jewish parents to send
their children for a years study to Israel
hoping that some of them would eventu-
ally come to settle. There was, of course,
expressed the wish for increased aliyah of
American Jews, and more than that, the
vital need for it, but, unlike in the past,
there was evident the general acceptance
of the fact - reluctant as it might be on
the side of the Israelis - that immigra-
ton from the us. would in the foresee-
able future be no more than a trickle.
The question that proved to be most
controversial and was the center of long
and heated debate was whether a full
Jewish life was possible outside of Israel
and, related to it, whether the Jewishness

1T ALL CAME about when
the people complained of the
poor illumination of the
streets at night. 1t was de-
cided to call a public meet
ing - an asipha, as they
called it. In Chelm, they were
always calling public meet
ings. That was perhaps the
thing most noticeable about
them. They even sometimes
called a public meeting to de-
eide whether they should
have a public meeting.

HAM RATES fancy fixings for Easter
Sunday dinner. The ham is a tender,
delicious beauty, scored, glazed and
carved into generous slices. Then you
can turn hard cooked eggs into daffo-
dis with the aid of paper petals for
a festive garnish.
When shopping for your ham, you
will find modern hams tailored for
every occasion. You may select the
size and style best suited to your FAM
ily's needs and the days schedule OF
activities.
The skinless, ShankleSS ham has been
gaining in popularity. AS its name I'M
plies, the shank bone and excess skin
and fat have been trimmed away. The
resulting ham is carver's dream.
Attractive h0rseshoe-shaped slices can
be cut with ease whether whole ham
or a shank or butt half is purchased.
Keeping second helpings and encore
meals in mind, it is wise to allow ONE
half pound per person. One-quarter
pound per serving will be ample If the
round boneless or new boneless hostess
hams are served.
The schedule for the day influences
the ham purchase as much as the num-
Der of people to be served. The cook
before-eating ham requires the longest
time in the oven. This ham should be
heated to an internal temperature OF
100 degrees F. for best development
of texture and flavor.
A fully cooked ham may be sliced
and served cold or heated to 130 de-
grees F. to serve hot. In either case,
remember that modern hams do not
require either pre-soaking or parboiling.
Another cooking method may be used
for ham cook in foil Then you can
brush on fruit juice and spices before
baking and let the foil hold in the flavor
so that it penetrates deep during
baking
Cook-before- eating type ham: Place
ham on large sheet of 18-inch-Wlde,
heavy-duty foil. Brush literally with u
cup pineapple juice combined with |
teaspoon each, dry mustard and ginger
and u teaspoon cloves Pad bone ends
Montana farmer-stockman., 1962-04-15

with folded pieces of foil. Wrap ham
and smooth down. The wrap at the
bottom of the ham should be tight to
hold juices in.
Place ham in shallow pan and bake
400 degrees F. Bake whole ham 16
minutes per pound; half ham, Is min
utes per pound.
Ready-to-eat type ham: Place the
ham on large piece of foil, brush with
pineapple juice and spices and wrap.
Bake at 400 degrees F. Bake whole
ham 11a hours half ham, l hour. Dec
crate and glaze, if desired.
Ham and eggs left from Easter rate
special attention, too. To maintain the
maximum eating enjoyment of the
cooked ham, it should be covered
loosely, stored in the refrigerator and
used within a week. Freezing leftover
ham is not recommended because
cured and smoked meats deteriorate
rapidly in flavor when frozen.
Hard-cooked eggs in shells should
likewise be stored in the refrigerator
and used within a week. Here is a
recipe which combines the cooked ham
and Easter eggs.

LAMB, TOO, is traditional Easter
favorite. Genuine spring lamb has
delicate, yet distinctive, flavor that
combines with fruit and vegetables in
a pleasing way. One-third to one-half
pound per serving is the general rule
to follow when buying bone-in meat.
Lamb legs weighing around pounds
are especially fine in quality.
If you buy your lamb at market,
remove the market paper when you
get home. Cover the lamb loosely with
waxed paper to allow some circulation,
then place in the refrigerator.
You may roast leg of lamb in low
sided pan, or cook in foil. TO add to
the ease of carving, the paper-thin
covering, known as the ssfell," can be
stripped off with pairing knife before
serving. If you wish, you may remove
it before cooking ). the roast will look
more attractive.
TO roast leg of lamb, place it fat
