$500 Raise Must Be Granted For Teachers

A lack of progressive leadership
and not the inability to pay has been
cited as the reason for low salaries for
teachers in Mississippi = and ours are
among the lowest in the nation, if not
the lowest.
An official of the state classroom
teachers organization, Mrs. B. B.
Bradley, Jr. of Columbia, says Missis-
sippi is losing far more in the exodus
of talented young teachers than it
would cost to boost teachers pay.
Mrs. Bradley said our teacher
training institutions are doing a won
derful job in training teachers but
about 20 per cent of them leave the
state and over 48 per cent go into
occupations other than teaching.
At the present time 35 per cent
of our state teachers are over so years
of age and it is increasingly difficult
to attract talented and good students
to the teaching profession. This comes
at a time when higher professional
standards are more important than
ever before = if Mississippi is to keep
pace even with our sister Southern
states.
Mississippi's teacher salaries are
considerably under the national aver
age of $500. Thew are under the
average salaries paid bv other South
ern states = by 81. 200 or more. Our
average salaries are only about So. 300.

camp, they do not walk by
day.
Or rather they are nearly
gone.
Once in a while you still
come across a barrack in
habited by people whose life
has changed little in the past
ten years. Social service per-
sonnel of the Jewish Agency
and the Government Welfare
Department are hard at work
trying to move these last re-
manning social problem cases
to better surroundings. Yet
though priority is given to
them in many ways, the re-
moVal of this hard core of i'll,
aged and unskilled immi-
grants is extremely difficult.
AS soon as we leave our
car, they begin to harangue
us with the fluency developed
in long years of being visited,
interrogated and pitied. Can't
we see what is happening to
them? Why are they being
neglected? Why are the So
cial workers trying to push
them out? Look at this old
Ster! Look at this child!
Being slightly more than
casual visistors, we know the
other side of the story. We
know how hard the Jewish
Agency and the public well
fare authorities are trying to
remove these people. We al
so know how impossible the
conditions are which most of
these families insist upon as
the price for their leaving

money!" demands a shrill fe-
male voice. We think of our
American money UJA mon
ey, at work in places like Di-
mona and AShdod, and we
feel proud rather than guilty.
Were it not for UJA, there
might be not 60 but perhaps
5000 families or more in the
Pardess Hanna camp today.
We stand quietly in the
hail of angry words raining
down upon us like physical
blows. These people are
wrong, yet in a way they are
right They are what they
are because the help we can
offer them today has come
too late. If we had been able
to get to them earlier indi-
vidually and patiently as we
are trying to reach them to-
day, if we had been able to
transfer them before long
years of camp life bred deep
seated habits of total depen-
dency, we may have helped
them rebuild their lives
healthfully and constructive
ly, like the majority of IS
raels one million post-State-
hood immigrants. Now they
are the price we pay for hav-
ing had to do too much with
too little, twelve years ago.

camp through which some
$4,000 persons passed during
the course of a few years, is

which should be returned
to productive use. Already
neighboring farmers are an
xious to add part of this good
agricultural soil to their own
limited holdings. One sector
has been set aside for indus
trial purposes. JDC-Malben
and a nearby children's vii
lage have also asked for part
of this area on which to erect
additional hospital and child
care facilities. On every side,
healthy constructive life is
waiting to move in and cover
this barren scar in the green
and densely populated coast
al area.
AS we drive back between
the empty Quonset huts we
say a silent goodbye to a
milestone in the history of
IsraePs mass immigration.
Hopefully, our angry as
sailants will soon be moved
to better quarters and the
former immigrant town will
once again become a place of
work and laughter, a place
of healing and a place for
trees and children. For many
years to come, however, there
will be people in Israel re-
membering this camp as it
was twelve years ago. In a
way, it is a place worth re-
membering - an indication
of how far we have come,
spur to our determination
that towns such as this
should never again spring up
on IsraePs soil.

JERUSALEM - Twelve
years ago, some $4,000 peo-
pie lived here, crowded to-
gether into tents. huts and
old Army barracks. Today,
only some 60 families remain
in what was once the largest
immigrant camp in Israel.
Soon, these too will be trans
ferred to other places of per-
manent settlement.
You drive into the camp
from the Tel Aviv-Natanya
highway and you soon real
ize why they used to call this
the immigrant town near
PardeSs Hanna. Even now,
with part of the land taken
over by JDC-Malben's Village

large empty stretches left of

QUESTION: Why can't
Jews eat meat after fish on
the Sabbath?
ANSWER: The prohibition
of eating fish and meat to-
gether applies to any day of
the week and not particularly
on the Sabbath alone. The
reason it is often associated
with the Sabbath is that it
was especially on the Sab
bath that both delicacieS
were enjoyed at the same
meal and that the rabbiS ad-
vised the consumer to drink
some Whiskey before eating
the meat after the fish
course. Either both delicacieS
were eaten on the Sabbath
as a sign of greeting the Sab
bath with luxury, or because
the two foods represented
the two great living beings
whose flesh would be enjoyed
in the days of the Messiah
lie. the Leviathan and the
Ok. The Talmud claims that
eating meat and fish to-
gether disposes one to lep-
rosy in some respect (Pesa-
kim 76a; Yoreh Deah 116:2).
The rabbis generally claimed
that because the basic nature
of fish and meat is markedly
different they should not be
eaten together. 1t is thus our
practice to wash the hands
and/or rinse the mouth be-
tween the two courses. Some
of the rabbis claimed that
medical opinion substantial
ed their contention in this
respect.
The Arizona post., 1962-01-05

QUESTION: What is the
traditional Jewish view re-
garding "prisOns?"
ANSWER: 1t is interesting
to note that the law of the
Bible had no punishment
which deprived an individual
of his liberty. While there is
mention of Egyptian, Philis-
tine and Assyrian prisons
Genesis 80, 2O:4O; Judges
1921; Jeremiah 52:1D, no
mention is ever made of a
Jewish prison. In the Penta
teuch Imprisonment is used
only as a temporary means
of holding a violator until
sentence was passed Levitt
Gus 24:12, Numbers 15:34).
Later Biblical works make
mention of imprisonment as
a means of Furnishing one
who fell into the diSfavor of
the ruling power. In Tai
mudic literature prison is
only mentioned as a means
of OBTAINING one who was
guilty of a capital offense
but could not be legally con-
Victed, or one who trans
gressed the same crime, for
which stripes are required,
more than twice; and tempo
rary imprisonment pending
trial.

QUESTION: Why is it a
Jewish tradition to eat fish
on the Sabbath?
ANSWER: A number of
reasons are given for this
tradition. Some contend that
the Sabbath is a reflection of
the JOY that one is to have
in the world to come. Since
the joys of the next world
include the eating of the sue
culent flesh of the Leviathan,
a Jew eats fish on the Sab
bath to serve as a reminder
of his reward in the next
world. Eating the fish is thus
one of the pleasures tradi-
tionally required on the Sab
bath. Some consider the fish
as a sign of plenty since fish
reproduce in great numbers.
In this sense it can also be
a sign of fertility.

QUESTION: Why does the
individual who picks up the
TOrah after the traditional
reading in the synagogue,
turn around to the cOngrega-
ton and back again?
ANSWER: The intention
was to have all the congre-
cation get a chance to look
upon the Torah and to OBJ
serve its script. This was
done so that the impression
be implanted that the Torah
was not only the province of
the scholar but that it was
equally to be considered the
possession of all the people.
Furthermore, the people
traditionally point to the To
rah and proclaim that it is
the Torah revealed to Moses
at Sinai. This, in a sense, is
an exercise in faith. Since
the Torah was something in
which faith was required, it
was mandatory that every
one see the text in which our
faith manifeStS itself.
