JFKs Promises Recalled

On June IA, 1860, just before the Presi-
dental campaign of that year - mem
Der of the Senate told that august body:
1--WE must formulate with both imagi-
nation and restraint, a new approach to
the Middle East = not pressing our case
so hard that the Arabs feel their neutral
ity and nationaliSm are threatened, but
accepting those forces and seeking to help
channel them along constructive lines,
while at the same time trying to hasten
the inevitable Arab acceptance of the
permanence of Israel. We must give our
support to programs to help people in
stead of regimes-to work in terms of
their problems, not ours-and seek
permanent settlement among Arabs and
Israelis based not on an armed truce but
on mutual self-interest." .
The speaker was Senator John F. Ken
nedy-the same man who, in September,
as a campaigner for the Presidency,
would assure the annual convention of
the Zionist Organization of America that,
if elected, he would give high priority to
the settlement of all outstanding Arab
IsraeliS issues
What has happened since? Where are
the promises of yesteryear? Certainly
they were not apparent when, last

autumn, the United States opposed a reso-
luton introduced in a committee of the
U.N General Assembly by 16 members,
calling for peace negotiations between
Israel and the Arab states.
The promises seemed still more re-
mote when the United States acted as
the architect and chief proponent of a
resolution adopted two weeks ago by
the Security Council, sharply censuring
Israel for reacting against Syrian provo
cations in the Lake Tiberias area.
Where now are the spirit, vision and
intent of those grand designs drawn just
prior to the 1860 campaign, and during
the height of the campaign, by the then
Senator Kennedy?
That the United States would favor
censure of Israel before the Security
Council was apparent from the opening
remarks on the issue made by Adlai E.
Stevenson, when he spoke up for the
American delegation in the Security Coun-
cil's debate of the reciprocal charges of
aggressions made against each other by
Syria and Israel. One must ask, as diplo-
mats here do ask: Who formulateS us.
policy? Is it Mr.. Kennedy, or Secretary
of State Dean Rusk, or is Mr.. Stevenson
a free agent?

Editorial Comment

The Tucson Jewish Community Coun
ell leadership under its president, William
Gordon has been outstanding.
But The Arizona Post would suggest
that before Mr.. Gordon completes his cur
rent term that he strongly consider the
formation of a leadership program.
The Tucson Jewish commumity has
dire need for the formation of such a
program. Today throughout the DatiCn
Jewish communities are finding leader
ship development programs extremely
successful.
And the most important part of these
programs is the development of young
leadership.
A new report from the Council of
Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds
reports successful programs in such cities
as Kansas City, Columbus, Buffalo, Chat
tanooga Dallas, Toronto and Detroit.
GAS a community investment" states
the report, "the leadership development
programs are also bringing substantial
dividends in terms of continuing commu-

Leadership Program Needed

nifty service by an informed and intelli-
gent corps of volunteers"
In Kansas City winners of young
leadership awards have played "signifi-
cant roles in campaigns and in year-round
programs. Columbus reports its 1860
young leadership award winner is now
big gifts committee chairman. Dallas
says its program was found so success
full that the community has established
a second young leadership award"
Tucson has an outstanding group of
young men, but it is not being tapped
firmly enough for service within the Jew
ish group.
A youth leadership program should be
instituted this coming fall with seminars,
round tables and training programs The
Council should institute a Young Leader
ship Award, dedicated, perhaps, in mem
ory to a youth of the community.
The future success of the Tucson Jew
ish community depends on the develop
ment of such youth leadership program
today.

for the Ecumenical Council Dr. Gold
mann reported on his talk with Cardinal
Bea to leaders of Jewish organizations in
New York
MUSICAL NOTES: Musical history is
now being made in New York by Abra-
ham Ellstein, the Jewish composer and
conductor whose versatility ranges from
some 80 operettas in the Yiddish theatre
to scores for three Broadway musicals
and several full length oratories and can
tatas. Financed by grant from the Ford
Foundation, Ellstein has written a full
length opera, "The Golem," based on the
ancient Jewish legend of Prague, which
had its premiere performance at New
York City Center
At the same time he has also written
a Negev Concerto for piano and orchestra
which was performed recently in New
Yorks Town Hall. THE Golem," based
on the work of the noted Yiddish poet H.
Leivick and adapted for the stage by the
famous actor Joseph Buloff, is not the
first opera composed by EllStein. He has
to his credit also the prize-winning opera
"The Thief and the Hangman'.
And he also has several symphonic
works which have been performed in
every major concert hall in the world.
He is also known for his cantorialS which
form a part of the religious services in
many synagogues and temples in this
country. Ellstein began his career at the
age of five as a member of a synagogue
choir on the lower East Side of New York
where he was born. At 49, he had already
served several seasons as a singer in the
children's chorus of the Metropolitan
Opera.

Boris Snolar

All indications point to the possibility
that American Jewish organizations will
not seek an invitation to the Ecumenical
Council which the Vatican is convoking in
Rome.
Originally, some of the Jewish organi-
cations were inclined to seek permission
from the Vatican to attend this very i'm
portant high council of the Catholic
Church as observers.
This was considered important because
the Ecumenical Council could take de
cSionS to condemn anti-SemitiSm as well
as to modify the emphasis in the Catech-
ism on Jews as God killers. However,
after consultation with Rabbi Joseph B.
Soloveichik of Boston, and other impor-
tant American Jewish religious leaders, it
was decided that Jewish groups limit
themselves only to the sending of mem
orandum to the Ecumenical Council out
lining their suggestions.
Rabbi Soloveichik advised against
sending a Jewish representation but he
approved of the text of a memorandum
which was prepared jointly by leading
Jewish groups in this cOuntry-Authori-
tative Vatican circles indicated that Pope
John XIII is willing to consider the
Jewish request to discuss Christian
Jewish relations at the Ecumenical Coun-
Gil. Persons close to the Pope said he is
not opposed to extending an invitation to
Jewish observers because he considers
the Jews, by accepting the Old Testament,
were not extraneous to Christianity
They emphasized that an invitation to
non-ChristianS would be unprecedented
but was not an impossible gesture In
the meantime, Dr. Nahum Goldman re-

glIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDIHDIlIIIIInI
panorama
by David Schwartz

biography tells an amusing
tale about William Sulzer.
The old timers will remem-
Der Sulzer. He represented
the East Side in Congress
when it was really the East
Side, when on the same block
you could get all the three
P's pushcarts, pickles and
philosophers. The time when
the East Side was full of
color I at the time of the
great immigration.
THE FACT that SulZer
was not a Jew didn't hurt
him with the East Side. He
was tall, looked like Andrew
Jackson and when he spoke,
used only the best words in
the dictionary. A lot of the
East Siders didn't understand
him, but they didn't care
about that. A good speech
should have music as well
as ideas, and ideas these East
Siders had enou h. They
loved the music. A speech by
Congressman Sulzer was so
soothing, you could fall
asleep.
Sulzer was so popular on
the East Side, T a m m a n y
nominated him for governor
and he was elected, but elect
ed over his great popularity,
he defied Tammany and that
is when he lost out. Tammany
Boss Charley Murphy gave
orders for his Impeachment
and he was tried and re-
moved from the governor
ship.
THE STORY that Baruch
relates is of the time when
SulZer was a Congressman.
He was boasting among a
party of neWSpapermen Of
his great popularity with the
Jews. why" said he, II in
tervened with the Car on
behalf of the Jews and when
the Jews learned this, they
got down on their knees in
synagogues and prayed for
me-"
Herbert Bayard SWope,
later editor of the New York
World, who was among the
newspapermen present, inter
rupted the Congressman;
BILL" he said, "Jews when
they pray don't get down on
their knees" You might have
expec a Congressman
such as Sulzer, representing
the most thoroughly Jewish
constituency in America to
know some of the simple
facts about the synagogue.
THE SULZER episode re-
minds me of the story of the
wealthy Jew who had Maftir.
Maftir, as everyone knows or
ought to know, is the highest
honor bestowed on a layman
at the synagogue service; the
honor of reading the pro
phetical portion in the serv-
ice.
When a rich man is ac-
corded the honor, it is eX-
pected that he will make a
quid pro quo with a donation
to the synagogue. But this
rich man was very miserly,
so the officials said, No mon
cY. no Maftir.
Fin ally the rich man,
greedy for the honor, prom
ised to give $500 to the syn
agogue. But once he had
Maftir, he thumbed his nose
at the officials when they
asked him for money. He
laughed in their faces. $50 l
promised, so what? You don't
expect me to make good such
promise, do yOu?"
Members of the congrega-
ton surrounded him, argued
with him, shouted at him,
