J O T DSSGO WASHINGTON fJTA)—President Johnson was characterized by leaders of the Jewish War Veterans who met. with him as disturbed by lack of support for the Viet Nam war in the American Jewish community at a time when he was taking new steps to aid Israel. President Johnson was described as welcoming JWV backing of his Viet Nam policy while feeling it "incumbent" on other major Jewish organizations "to re-evaluate" their thinking on this subjet. Commander Malcolm Tarlov of the Jewish War Veterans told the White House corps, in relaying these observations, that the President asked the JWV to launch a campaign in the Jewish community to rally support for the Viet Nam war. The President commended the JWV for concurring ou Viet Nam and favoring any necessary increase in military involvement. Mr. Tarlov said. But, said Mr. Tarlov, the President thought that while other Jewish thinking was "compassionate and knowledgeable" on different issues, he could not understand why such Jews failed to share the JWV stand on Viet Nam. President Johnson revealed that he had taken steps to provide sophisticated arms to Israel and would now help the Israeli Government in its current economic difficulties, according to the JWV delegation. Mr. Tarlov said the President was mindful of recent developments involving Israeli security. Tlie JWV commander told the press that the meeting, which lasted X5 minutes, was highlighted by strong conviction on the part of the President that Jews who seek U.S. support for coreligionists in Russia and for Israel should vigorously identify with Administration actions in Viet Nam.

The former Prmier also reJferated his doubts about the need for the Zionist movement, iifking ."What is the difference in the United States between Zionists-and non-Zionists? They b'dh love Israel." He was particularly critical of American Jtwry which he said was on its •way to iiltterpHon by the nonJewish majority.

From Our Mew Year Edition

Rei St Louis, Mo.--The Jewish matchmaker who brought young (jcftple of equal social values Ut(jelher in the shtetl has a modern day. replacement operating in our brat Jewish families—the Jewish sorority. 'i his is the view of John Finloy fccolt. of the University of Cat-ifoi nia, writing in "Triinsaction," publication of the Community Leadership Project ol Washington University here. American middle class society has created the college sorority, according to Scott, which like tin* Khletl's matchmakers who boui'.ht to buy thousands.of high rank, manages to dissuade the girls from making alliances with lower-class boys. In an article entitled '"Sororities and the Husband Game," OM* *-ocio!offist siiid the purcr.tage alumni rather than the college age youths control the imjioit.mt policies of the sorority. Thus, he said, the elders can continue to "exert remote control over the marital arrangeinenls ol their young girls away on Ciiitipus."

iloslon (JTA)—The University of Massachusetts gave special uei mission to Jewish students to be absent on the two days of IIOJII Hashana following protests over the scheduling of first classes on the first day ot the Jewish New Year. University otticials also indicated that they would take "all appropriate steps" to avoid a similar conflict in the future. The information was contained in a letter to the New England region of the American Jewish Congress which had protested to university officials over the scheduling. Tlie letter also said that the 'ate registration would be alt.i.ved on September IB without lie.alty and that Jewish students would be assigned to the classes they had chosen previously so that they would not be forced to register for other classes because of Rosh Hashana absences. Faculty members were asked to make arrangements for all students for any assignments missed because of such • absences. The letter said that '1 the existing scheduling methods "should have brought this to 1 light and that it did not-do so is difficult to explain." However, ' the letter said, 't'o guarantee that it win not happen again is impossible."

SabbaSli Traffic ProfelQins in IsraQ?--". Jerusalem (JTA)—Moshe Kol, Minister for Tourism, conferred with Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek and other top members •pf the municipality's administration on ways to halt the demonstrations c o n d u c t e d hero ugainst traffic on the Sabbath. The demonstrators, all of them ultra-religious Jews, were particularly active here last weekend, when traffic was very heavy, with thousands of tourists flocking to various historic and national shrines throughout this area. At leas two persons were hurt in stone-throwing actions Saturday. One of the "injured was a British woman who was hurt by flying glass' when a stone broke a window of a bus in which she was a passenger, near the Mandelbaum Gate. A taxi driver was tut by a stone while driving through'a section ot the city inhabited largely by 'religious zealots. Mr. Kol appealed to the 'Sabbath demonstrators to halt their notions which, hi* said, hurl Israel's image abroad. Mr. Kollek and oilier members of his city administration said they v/ould launch an educational campaign directed toward tlio Sabbath demonstrators.

Scott pointed out that in "sluetl" society of Eastern Europe, Jewish marriages were arranged by a "shatchen" who paired o/f the buys find giris on the basis of their status, wealth anil personal attractions for each other. He said the Jewish campus sorority performs similar functions. In fact, he cited throe basic functions in the sorority's role as matchmaker for marriageable girls. First, said Scott, it can .ward off the wrong kind of men; second, it can facilitate tnoving-up for middle-status girls; and third, it can solve the difficulty of proper marriage for hij;h.st.i tus jjiH.s, Love "Love is a potentially random factor," wrote Scott, "with no iegard for class boundaries. The only practical way to control love is to control the type of men the girl is likely to encounter , . ." Scott said the Jewish soroiities are the best examples of kinship groups that draw an ethnic membership line, and thus, among all the ethnic groups with endogamous standards, "only the Jews so far have sent large numbers of daughters away to college." Yet, Scott said, all is not well with sororities and fraternities on the college campus. "University a d m i nistrations and the students themselves are not as hospitable to the Greek societies as they once were," he said. In fact, he said, the sorority, as it now stands, "is ill-adapted to cope with the new surroundings." Scott predicted the girls of the future ''would reach the hearts of their men not through helping them wash (heir sports cars but through typing their theme papers." Nevertheless, Scott said he believes the sorority system cannot sustain itself on students alone, "When parents learn that membership does not benefit their daughters, the sorority as we know it will pass into history," he predicted.

Jerusalem (JTA)—Prime Minister Levi Eshkol declared that, while Germany's "past cannot be forgotten," relations between Israel and West Germany must be based on the fact that "reality cannot be disregarded." Mr. Eshkol discussed relations with Germany in an interview in the new magazine, Ot, issued by the Mapai-Achdut Avodah alignment. Noting that "there are sentiments and there is logic," Mr. Eshkol stated: "Twenty years have passed since the war. and a new generation has sprung up in Germany, a generation not responsible for what happened under the Nazis." He criticized "those who refuse to accept this fact." He lauded the manner in

which West Germany has paid its reparations to Israel and the fact that many Germans "accepted this as symbolic atone-, ment for the Nazi crimes."

It is an extremely personal memoir of a woman of great faith and courage, warmth and integrity. It is a record of the pain and joy of everyday life, arid of that strength within the heart which enables a person to endure and to prevail. From the small town in Galicia where she was born, n young Jewish girl moves with her family, to the capital city. Lwow. There she grows to young womanhood, goes to school and falls .in love.

Technically there is a truce between the religions and the r-ecular forces, and the slogan is retention of the status quo. On the one hand there is provocative agitation, and on the other hand a desire to extend influence even inriiier. Level heads seek to postpone what may have to be an eventual showdown. 3. Inflation. Once again the authorities are making a determined effort to stem the economic menace of wild inflation. If sacrifices are required, each Israeli wants his neighbor to be the victim, not he.

A rabbi saw a man rushing and said to the man, "Where are you rushing to so?" "I am going to seek my livelihood," said the man. "How do you know," said the rabbi, but that your livelihood may not be behind you?" • He couldn't know either about thor.e copper shares in which he had invested so heavily.

He thought lie- hnu better not wait inter than the next day in r.ell3>ij; his nlock or face the possibility of a great lor.s. He was awakened from these thoughts by a fnmiliar voice:

"Hey, there, "don't you know your friends any more?" It was his good friend, Goodkind. "Better watch out," said Goodkind, "or you'll be run over." The Presidency At the corner of Wall Street mid Broadway he bought a paper and entered his office. On the front page Was a big story .ibout President Roosevelt and the building of the Panama Canal. He read that. He was always interested in Presidents. Maybe, some day, he would be President. It was not entirely out of the question. How d o e s a man get to be President? A man can resolve to be an engineer or a lawyer or a millionaire and s t a n d a good chance of achieving it. Could a man resolve to be Presl (I c n t and become one? If he studied the mathematics of it just as he studied the mathematics of the stocks, maybe he could. After reading the story about Teddy Roosevelt, he turned to the Stock Exchange section. These were the pages IIR liked to read. Full of mathematics. Full of numbers.. Numbers to him told the real story. Like Pythagoras, he believed that everything finally reduced itself to numbers.

"Bernie," she said, interrupting him. "Tomorrow is Yom Kippur." "You mean Yom Copper," he said. He Jnugbed at his own pun as he told his mother how lie felt he must he prepared on the morrow to sell his copper shares. "Bernie," said his mother, "do I often ask you for favors?" "No, Mother." ''Well, Bernie, I do a;,k for one now. Don't go to your office on Yom Kippur. Do at least that one thing for your religion." "But, Molhf-r —" "That'p ail I osk of you, Bernie, Good Lye—" end the hung up.

He didn't go to his office on Yom Kippur. Afterward, Bernard Barucli used to say that, by not going, he. made himself a round million dollars. If he had gone, he had planned to sell his shares, but waiting 24 hours, the copper stock suddenly rose in value.

Ily Francie Hrody In communities across the nation increasing violence has resulted in increasing awareness of the Negro struggle for equality. Many people felt that the slow, peaceful methods used-in the civil rights campaign in the past were too slow. Thus, tempers began to reach a boiling point. The boiling point, setting off acts of violence even in our own city, has caused widespread damage. Since the Civil Rights fight has become a major national issue, and since many of these rights are those for which Jews long struggled, the teenage views on the subject should be interesting. Do you feel that recent Increasing racial violence will hurt (he Civil Rights movement? * * * Rc'ncc Fishcl, Senior "No—not at all.

"Yes, definitely. The civil rights movement has been greatly~harnied by the recent racial riots. As recent polls show, more and more people are becoming disenchanted with the militant wing of the civil rights movement, e s p e c i a l l y with Stokely Carmichael, Adam Clayton Powell and Floyd McKissick. This resentment is rubbing off onto the more reasonable leaders such as Whitney M. Young and Roy Wilkins. The effect, if the riots continue, will be to cause irreparable harm to the civil rights movement."
