The Problems Integration of Jewish, Immigrants: "The problems of integration of Jewish immigrants from a variety of backgrounds appears to be the one area of human relations problems calling forth the most creative Israeli thinking and effort" said Mr. Hahn. "Efforts toward integration tend to be more imaginative and determined than we are able to effect in dealing with non-white integration in the United States.'' Religion-Stale Relationships:

The problems of religion-state relationships seem less impressive to Israelis than to us" the Hahns reported. "There is an apparent desire to p o s t p o n e attention to these problems for as long as is politically feasible. Some d:iy Israel will have to come to grips with the problem, but for now, the urgencies of water and Israel-Arab relations must take precedence." Jewish Identity of Israel's Youth anil the K<lationslii|i of American and Israeli Jews: "The subject of Jewish Identity of Israeli youth arose in a variety of our contacts" the Hahns said. "Perhaps no other question ;ve touched stirred our attention more deeply." "Far from coming away with a feeling of second-class Jewishness because of our non Israel-centered existence, we felt an unequivocal .commitment for Jewish survival. We returned with an increased awareness of the importance of better Jewish education for our children; and we see a continued need to interpret the American scene to Israel." The People and The Future "I believe Israel's greatest asset is the Israeli citizen" Mr. Hahn said. "The people of Israel exemplify a spirit, courage and optimism unlike any other. I can't describe my feelings of pride as I watched the young people of I s r a e l . There's a spring in their walk and their heads seem to be held higher than others.

Foreign Policy Groyp Urges U.S* Arms for > Eesf New York UTA>—"The United States should shed its hesitation about becoming an arms supplier to the Middle East," a report on Israel, issued by the Foreign Policy Association, recommends. The report was written by Dr. Nadav Safran, associate professor of government at Harvard University and a member of the staff of the Harvard Center for Middle Eastern Studies. Declaring that war between the Arabs and Israel is "unlikely," the report said that the prospects of resolving the problems of Arab-Israeli hostility seem at the moment to be worse than they were Hi years ago. Howe/er, it adds, 'the chances of checking dangerous manifestations of that hostility seem to he brighter now." Dr. Safran feels it is important thai the United States continue aid to Egypt in its economic and social development programs. By encouraging the Egyptian government to concentrate on internal improvements, Dr. Safran stated, the Egyptians may increase the responsiveness to "United States counsels of restraint." His re-
port warns, however, that there be no implication of a coolinjjoff toward Israel, nor should the United States feel bound to refrain from taking exception to Egyptian foreign policy when it f e e l s such criticism is warranted. In his comments on the vitally important Jordan River irrigation project, Dr. Safran notes that the United States has consistently supported Israel's right to proceed with the plan. Tlie author strongly submits that, if the Arab states go ahead with their plans to divert the river's tributaries, "there should be no doubt of United States determination to help protect Israel's legitimate rights." U. S. policy toward Israel, according to the author, is based on a firm foundation of mutual sympathy between two countries committed to "the same humanistic democratic values." Dr. Safran stresses the importance this mutual commitment to democracy has for U, S. interests, citing how Israel's economic achievements provide tin? many emerging nations with a rare example of a .successful democracy in a new state.

Conference Urges Arms for Israel Washington (JTA)—The sixth annual national policy conference of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee opened with a call by iis chairman, Rabbi Philip'S. Bernstein, for American arms to Israel to deter Arab aggression. Rabbi Bernstein c i t e d the Arab attacks on Tunisian President Habib Bourguiba, because he proposed settlement with Israel, as renewed evidence of Arab intemperance and hatred. He said that AIPAC has supported United States economic aid to both Israel and the Arab states but was opposed to misuse of this aid for aggressive purposes. Referring to the Egyptian response to President Bourguiba's peaceful suggestions, he said that a weak Israel would invite aggression and that the dominant Arab leadership is animated by blind hatred of Israel. He urged the U. S. Government to make clear to the Arabs that diversion of the headwaters of the Jordan River would be regarded as an act of aggression. Rabbi Bernstein was reelccted chairman of the AIPAC and I. L. Kenen was reelccted director.

Strasbourg (JTA)—The Council of Europe, which serves as an unofficial European Parliament of 21 countries, called on the Soviet Government to accord equal religious, cultural and communal r i g h t s to the .'{,000,000 Jews in Russia.

World Jewry's basic hope for a positive perpetuation of the heritage of our people is dependent upon knowledgability—upon Ihe proper dissemination of news about Jews everywhere and the presentation of such news to the Jewish communities in all lands. What we need is proper communication. Without ft, many communities that are without newspapers, and communities which do not utilize the services offered them by the Jewish Press, will live in a vacuum. There is only one effective Jewish press in the world today, outside of Israel, where the language is primarily Hebrew, and that is the English-Jewish Press. The English-Jewish newspaper is the guardian over the public welfare of our people. It is the historian of Jewry. It is t he chronicle of our time. Without this watch-dog over Jewry's destinies, the great movements which operate in behalf of the downtrodden, the support of Israel, would not be able effectively 1o reach out to the communities which supply the funds for creative efforts and for redemption.

GEORGE LINCOLN ROCKWELL With regard to the article in the Jewish Press that George Lincoln Rockwell intends to nan for the governorship of Virginia, I would like your readers to know what the National Commander of the Jewish War Vet' erans had to say about this matter. Commander Ralph Plofsky said: "George Lincoln Rockwell is no more qualified to run for Governor of Virginia than would be the head of Cosa Nostra, Mafia or any other terrorist organization." "To permit this Nazi fuehrer in the United States lawful standing on the Virginia ballot would be to deface the noble traditions of Virginia, the state of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison." "At a time when there are Congressional demands for investigations of Rockwell as a subversive influence, the Virginia State Board of Elections would do well to reconsider his eligibility, whether he runs in the guise of an 'Independent' or on the open Nazi ticket. The candidacy of Rockwell given legal status by the state would mock sacrifices of many brave Virginians who died in the war against Nazism." Harold Katleniail, Commander Epstein-Morgan Post No. 260 Jewish War Veterans ol the USA

Rabbis Say the Darnedest Things
Strange things happen in the world of Rabbis. In Levittown, Pa. there is a rabbi who has rejected an increase in salary from his congregation on the grounds that it could not afford the additional expenditure. Rabbi Herbert Hendel of Temple Shalom told the Pulpit Committee that the temple could not afford such an increase in expenses and he would not consider a raise. The response from the Pulpit Committee was: "Thanks for your understanding, Rabbi." • * * And from California comes news of a Rabbi who cautions his collegues not to talk too much. Rabbi Edgar F. Magnin, who has occupied the same pulpit in. the Wilshire Boulevard Temple, Log Angeles for more than 50 years, told a press conference, "I don't read sermons. I speak them. I've been trying to tell the students at the seminary to do the same thing.

David, a 12 year old who has studied judo for one year, was asked what he would do if he saw an older boy or man come toward him with a menacing look. "I'd yell and run," David replied. According lo Mel Bruno, the highest ranking judo expert in the United States, David is absolutely correct. "A knowledge of judo is not sufficient to protect a child against violence" said Mr. Bruno. Values of Judo Judo has many values as a sport and as a discipline, but a youngster should not attempt to use judo techniques to defend himself in dangerous situations. The J.C.C. Judo class, under the direction of Mel Bruno, consists primarily of throws and holds. The child l e a r n s that while under attack he does not punch or block. Iastead, he may resist for a moment and then give way suddenly, causing his opponent to lose balance. Then the opponent can be thrown, bacause his own weight and momentum contribute to the force needed for the throw. Coordination Self-defense training can help a child improve his physique and coordination. It can build up. his ego. Judo training includes the art of falling without injury. This ability will often help the child more than the ability to throw an opponent. Self-confidence Most important, self-defense training may actually cut down on the probability of a child's engaging in physical combat. A child who knows judo is les<; likely than others to get into a fight, according to Chuck Arnold, Athletic Director. JUDO COURSE Registration is now open for the next cycle of Conditioning and Judo lessons. The new series of lessors for boys 0-16 years of age-and''the course for men, is open to beginners as well as those in the intermediate and advanced classes. Registration and further information can be obtained at the J.C.C. Athletic office, 342-13GG.
