AidSc . Mrs. Maryann T o J b, acting caseworker for the Family Service department of the Omaha Jewish Federation, has announced that the agency will act as a central clearing house for three scholarship programs in the Omaha Jewish Community. The B'nai B'rith Dr. Abe Greenberg Foundation; The National Council of Jewish Women M a r i o n Sloler Scholarship Award; and The Louis Kntz Memorial Scholarship* Foundation have been awarding financial nid scholarships to students for several years. On April Tl, representatives of the three groups met and agreed that the Jewish Family
Service should act as a central intake and referral agency for ench of the scholarship'funds. A .student need now fill out only one application. The Family Service" Caseworker will interview the student arid refer him to the scholarship program or programs for which he is eligible. The autonomy ol each of (lie scholarship funds will in no way l)c diminished. In the past, funds from these three scholarships have assisted numerous students to pursue higher education. College, technical and vocational students interested in scholarship aid. are asked to contact the Jewish Family Service, .'llIM'ilili, extension \\\.
Bonn (JTA)—West Germany's neo-Nazi National Democratic Party emerged from the BadenWurttemburg s t a t e elections with I).!! per cent of the total vote cast assuring it of 12 seats out of 120 in the next state Parliament. It was the most impressive display of electoral strength to date by the party whose extreme rightwing nationalism and frequent advocacy of Hitlerian tenets have caused widespread concern inside and outside of Germany. Chancellor Kurt Georg Kissinger expressed fear that the Badcn-Wui'Uemburg election results would damage West Germany's image abroad. Several hundred persons were reported to have demonstrated in front of the Baden-Wurttemburg Parliament in Stuttgart with placards proclaiming "10 per cent Nazi, our shame!" The NPD, which espouses such nationalistic causes as restoration of Germany's pre-war borders and the removal ol foreign troops from German soil, has been steadily gaining political strength in state elections. It has carefully avoided the appearance of overt anti-
Semitism. It polled lt.8 per cent of the vote in the Bremen elections last October, 7.9 per cent in Hesse, 7.-1 per cent in Bavaria, 0.9 per cent on the Khineland Palatinate, 5.8 per cent in Schleswig Ilolstein and 7 per cent in Lower Saxony. Sunday's election results are regarded with particular dismay because Wurttemburg-Baden, Germany's third largest state with a population of 5.5 million, is regarded as one of the most politically liberal areas in the nation. Political leaders said that a success there by the NPD would constitute a danger signal. A television commentator recalled last night that WurttemburgBaden gave the Nazi Party 10 per cent of its vote in 1!):)(), three years before Hitler took power. Israeli Reaction Jerusalem (JTA)—The Israeli press expressed serious concern over the results of the elections. Most papers called on the Government in Bonn to ban the NPD lest the Federal Republic succumb to Nazism as the Weimar Republic did a generation ago.
American Reaction New York (JTA)—The American Jewish Congress said that the election success of the neoNazi National Democratic Party in Baden-Wurttemburg "cannot be dismissed as routine or as reflecting merely the normal percentage of extremist sentiment that may be found in any electorate." Dr. Joachim Prinz, immediatep ast president of the Congress, said that the election results showed "a dangerous turn to the right among substantial segments of West German public opinion." Dr. Prinz noted that previous successes by the NPD in other German states had "occurred in regions long known to be vulnerable to rightist sentiments." But Sunday's victory, he said, "must be considered a clear defeat of those who had hoped that democracy at long last was taking root and becoming a viable way of life for the German people. It could could have happ e n e d in reputedly liberal Baden-Wurttemburg, then one can only surmise with apprehension the state of German opinion in other parts of the country."

Special help for recreational activities at the Home is provided by the Omaha Section of the National Council of Jewish Women. In addition,
all women's organizations in the community, under the Federation of J e w i s h Women's Clubs, sponsor special days and holiday parties.

Three Israeli soldiers were reported to have been hit in the battle, according to an account given by another soldier to newsmen on the scene. The action brought to 1!) the number of El Fatah saboteurs killed by Israeli forces since last Thursday night. A military spokesman announced today that two Israeli soldiers were wounded when Egyptian forces opened fire from the west bank of the Suez

He alleged that in each case Israeli troops had opened fire.) Jordanian troops, shot twice against Israeli units in the Heisan and Jordan valleys. The fire was returned but no casualties were r e p o r t e d . A military spokesman said the Jordanians first fired at an Israeli patrol in the Beisan area and shortly afterwards fired on Israeli units near the Damiyah Bridge.

Tel Aviv (JTA)—Defense Minister Moshe Dayan has warned Jordan that if it continued to wage "a war of terror" against Israel, the war would pass,to Jordanian soil and be decided there. Speaking at a meeting of the regional council at Samakli, attended by representatives of settlements in the Israeli-side of the Jordan Valley, Gen. Dayan emphasized that Israel would not accept a cease-fire agreement that was not applied to terrorist activities and under which terrorist organizations were permitted to wage war on Israel's side of the cease-firo line. This "unilateral right" is not for the Arabs alone, he warned. "If Jordan wants to become the sword of the Arab countries and if Jordan tries to do what Egypt stopped doing after it evacuated residents of cities and towns nlong tho Suez Canal, then Jordan would also have to pay for It," Gen. Dayan declared, He warned that the entire Jordan Volley would become a battlefield.

State Controlled Polish Press The American Jewish Committee came under attack in the stale controlled Polish press for allegedly planning to slander Poland during observances of the ;r>lh anniversary oi the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. In a dispatch from New York. Stanislaw (ilahinski of the official Polish Press Agency asserted that the political significance of these ceremonies was b e i n g shown by the American Jewish Committee "which does not pull any punches when it comes to slandering Poland." The '('ilahinski dispatch was widely published in Polish newspapers. The PPA charged that the anniversary c e l e b r a t i o n s in New York City on April 22 had been planned in advance to adopt resolutions "d i r e c t e d against People's Poland" and that a New York TV documentary on the ghetto revolt had been deliberately c h a n g e d to
eliminate ''all fragments show in;; the assistance of Poles" to the Jews and that a new com incnlary unfriendly to Poland had been incorporated. The American Jewish Committee, in a statement by executive director Bertram (iold, le torted that the o r g a n i z a t i o n "has never pulled punches in the defense of human rights of Jews and of all people nor doi s it pull punches in applauding those governments that h a v e extended human rights.1'

Mark Greenberg, fifth grade son of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Greenberg, has volunteered to review some of the books available for young readers. ALL ON THE TEAM By Frances Fox Sandmcl Reviewed by Mark Grecnberg One night as the Cohens were having their Passover Seder, there was a knock on the door. Eli went to see who it was.

Just then Terry saw the prayerbooks and everything else on the table, and how everyone was dressed up. For a moment the room was very, very quiet. Then
Mr. Cohen asked Terry if he had ever been, to a Passover Seder. Terry said that he hadn't. . Later, as the family were finishing dinner and singing Day-en-u, Terry's f a t h e r , Mr, Parsons burst into the room and told the boys that they had a new baby sister. At that moment Mr. Parsons noticed the table and all its , adornments, and asked Mr, Cohen, "Is this Passover?" Mr. Cohen answered yes'it is. After a moment of quiet, Mr. Parsons told the boys they had to be leaving. Before they got out the door, Eli asked Mr. Parsons if Terry could play with, him the next, few days. Mr. Parsons answered no, I'm afraid not, Terry will be too busy. Both boys later discovered they liked each o t h e r very much, but what brought them together was their love of baseball. .The baseball relationship was one of a series of things that brought the Jewish Cohens and the Protestant Parsons together as friends. This is an exciting story of two boys of different religions growing up in the way that is best for him.

I!v David .Schwartz. As we observe Israel's 2Mth birthday, Americans may be proud of the fact that the United States was the fust to n cognize-Israel's independence- Just six minutes after _ _ • • Israel proclaim- • " " " ' ,_ ed her independ < ence, the United States recognized t< v ' " Israel. \ /, \ ' < Two men were chicllv responsible for this — a redheaded man lead- j and a bald headed man. T bald-headed man D. Schwartz was Eddie Jacson of Kansas City, who had operated a haberdashery store there before the great Depression of 1<)29. The red-beaded man (later as he grew older it turned snow white) was a fellow named Jackson. Andrew Jackson. Like Eddie Jacobson, he started out as
a poor bov. His lather died a few days before he was born. Ho worked for a while in a saddle shop, then became a soldier, and be was very good at it. Still later he turned to politics. He moved to Washington and lived there for eight years on Pennsylvania Avenue, corner of Sixteenth Street in a place called the'White House. Before Zionism If you tell people that Jackson did a lot to secure recognition for bracl, t!;t:y .-.ay fiddle-., faddle. They say Jackson lived around lj)3() and 1810, and there was no Zionism in those days. How could a man who lived so lonf; ago affect an event of today? For the answer, we would like to refer to a state-. . meiit made by General Jackson during the war of 1812. He said, M mean to press on even if the army has to live on acorns." In other words, Jackson was a man of tremendous will pow-. cr. He could do what .others could not do. Anyway, we know that when the bald-headed Eddie Jncobson came to President Truman in 19-18 to ask him to see Dr. Weizmann, the Zionist leader, Truman turned him down flat. Eddie Jacobson had served'as a buddy of Truman in World War I and later the two had formed a haberdashery business together. They were the closest of friends, but Truman would not budge from his position. Hewould not meet Weizmann, and that was that! The Turning Point Kddie Jncobson rose to leave. As he did so, his eyes noted the little statue of Andrew Jackson on Truman's desk. "Harry," Eddie said, "I remember how you used to always talk about Andrew Jackson. Ho stood up for the common people, defying the great bank monopoly. He stood up for the Union, challenging the nullificationists. Jackson was your hero, Harry. Well, H a r r y — Weizmann is mine." Truman just could not take that. "All right," lie said, "you bald-headed S.O.B. You win." That's why-I say it was due to a red-headed man and n baldheaded man that the U.S. recognized Israel.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. "In the urban crisis. Jewish Community Centers cannot be 'drop-outs' in the quest of identifying the emerging problems, understanding the forces "that shape them and confronting these problems with u clear sense of purpose," delegates to the HHiii convention of the National Jewish Welfare Board UWB) meeting were told this week. "In I!ilJ7, 2)5 riots occurred in 1<'!7 American cities: Jewish Community Centers are located in many ol these communities," Morris lieisen. Maple-wood. N. .1., chairman, JWH's Public Allairs Committee, reported. Speaking at a panel session on •'Effects of Riots on Jewish Community Centers," Mr. Roisen said, "The urban crisis is ol concern to .IWB and to Jewish Community Centers who:;e philosophy commits them to help eliminate social injustice and insure to all people the confidence, security, dignity, status and sense of [•(immunity to which they are rightfully entitled. The panelists discussed the part that the local Jewish community and Jewish Community Center should play in assisting the Negro community to develop selfhelp programs, what Jewish Community Centers can do to help Jews to understand all the aspects of the Negro Revolution and to understand their own reactions to Negro uprisings in their own communities, and what JCCs can do to he part of total community efforts to reduce causes giving ri.se to riots in their cities. . Ten specific programs and projects engaged in by the Jewish Community Centers Association of St, Louis as part of community etlort.s to eliminate tin; causes of urban riotn were cited by William Kahii, executive director. The projects listed by Mr. Kahn were: 1. Adult Center members arc tutoring Negroes lacking high school training in elementary English and mathematics as a result ol which a number ol people have found employment and in some instances better paying jobs. •I. Six Negro adult trainee:; have been placed in the Centers' Association's day care, group work and health and educational programs as part ol a one-year . training program for people who have completed high school, with a view to employing these people when staff vacancies occur at the conclusion of the project. The trainees attend special classes at the local junior college district. '•',.

ship on something, other than a servile or domestic basis. A Center stall worker sits m on the meetings and meets with a .small steering committee. •I. A special issues and social action committee of the Center's older adult group, involving several hundred people, has invited different Negro older adult groups from the inner city to visit the Center's branch building contiguous to the inner city for exchange of mutual concerns. Out, ol these experiences has developed a joint medicare alert program, with the Center being used as a county headquarters lor people registering. .">. High school seniors from the Center serve as volunteer aids in settlement houses in the inner city, working on cleanup and service projects, with a Center stall worker accompanying the group. (!. A series of inlereullural experiences between the Center and sefement house's in the inner city have involved utilization of certain Center facilities by inner city groups, visits to Center camp grounds and participating with Center children in programs; home and home activities by sports teams from the Center and inner city settlement houses. 7. Negro leaders from a variety ol groups, ranging from conservative.' to militant,.have been invited to express their points of view and the goals ol their organizations at different Center adult and public affairs discussion groups, a type of program that has helped Center members to better understand the concerns, goals and aspirations of different groups in the Negro community. 8. Negroes in the community have been employed as professional staff members of the Center, as camp counselors, club leaders and in clerical capacities. When job openings arise which do not specifically require a Jew to fill the post, contacts arc made with the Urban League and Negro newspapers to list job openings. !). During the past two years a dozen trainees from poor families have been placed with the Center as part of the work experience program of the State Department of Welfare: also several college students from poor families work at the Center as part of a college work study program. It). The Center's policy is to deal only with business firms which follow a policy ol non-discrimination in employment; to schedule meetings, luncheons and dinners only in places which do not discriminate against anyone because of race or creed; recruit, employ and promote personnel without regard to race, creed or national origin. . •

esf Sellers' Alice Payne Hackett of Publishers Weekly has just written a book listing the best sellers Mnce )fl!lf>. It is called "Seventy Years of Best Sellers 1B!)5-1%J,"" and published by R. R. Bowker Jit $7.00.
It is common news, I believe, thiil Dr. Spock leads the list. "The Pocket Book of Baby and Child Care" has sold over 1!) million copies. Dr. Spock has literally changed the lives of millions of people. Dr. Spock's book is preventative medicine at its most practical because it ns.'umcs parents are oftwi their own child's best physician. The novel which has sold the most is "Peyton Place" by Grace Metalious. Almost ten million people have paid money to fchare in Mrs. Metalious' visionary rural New England. What surprised me about Mrs. Haekett's report is not the books which do appear. Mickey Spillane and Dale Carnegie are in the vanguard of American thinkers, but"the hooks which do not. Poor Sellers Neither Abraham Lincoln's writings nor a biography of him appears in the top 50 books. I find that surprising since every school bey and girl memorizes at one time or another "The Gettysburg Address." Lincoln's picture hangs in every classroom, he is the subject of hundreds of editorials every year, elected politicians constantly allude to him and one would think this constant generation of interest would lend to an everpursuing curiosity. Nor is Mark Twain among the first fifty. "Huckleberry Finn" represents Twain's rendering of the American moral experience and is by no means n simple book; but I thought every boy read "Tom Sawyer." Maybe we ore a nation who do not read books twice. There are dozens of other books whose omission should surprise us but it is also true thni the invention of the best seller was closely followed by tho invention of the movie. And the invention of the best seller olso coincides with the new publishing technicjues which allowed newspapermen to create for themselves the mass urban circulations. 1 do not think either movies
or newspapers usurped time from readers, but f do think they introduced new and innovative techniques, which in turn inspired new reading habits among the folks. Now the question is: Hairy (iuldcn, knowing this, why don't his lioiiks lead the lists? I didn't know anything about babies. When thev cried, I wanted to call the doctor. Hiccups was a catastrophe. As for writing a Peyton Place, the last time I passed through rural New England I was on my way to pick up some hootlei; hooch in Montreal. It is impossible to fix a traffic ticket in Charlotte, let alone indulge in adultery. I would never thought of writing "Love Without Fear" which earned Eustace Chester three million readers. My idea would have been to write "Love Without Trouble" of which there ain't. The trouble is none of us fear love. All of us fear trouble. So I am just a journalist, and a Southern journalist wondering how. in the world I was lucky enough to got the readers I do have,

Haifa-Early in June the ailing and moribund World Zionist Organization will hold its 27th Zionist Congress in Jerusalem. It will face serious problems which have to do with the very ex-.,,Iff istence ol the or-1: ganization or atleast v/ith its el fective cont i n u ance. It m u s t i come to grips with basic deci. sions as to its role and functions. It ni us t •..: V I •,;:••! c h o o s e a new Alpert President, to replace Dr. Nahiim Goldmann who has made firm announcement that he will not seek reelection. The delegates to the Congress can go through their traditional routine of speeches, deliberations and adoption of wordy resolutions. They can play the usual political games of party blocs jockeying for position and influence one against the other, as they h a v e for so many Congresses. And if they do, they will doom the Zionist Organization to continued decadence— kept alive only by the paper framework of paid officials and elected officers. Or the delegates can seize what may be the last chance to revive the historic organization, draft new, young leadership and infuse the organism with a fresh sense of mission and opportunity for achievement. New Head The start must be made at the top. The World Zionist Organization needs a new head. He should not be an Israeli, but rather a distinguished figure from Diaspora Jewry. He should come to the office without previous commitment to any of the Zionist parties, and he can make his most effective contribution if he has never been involved in any of the complicated internal tangles which have for years beset the Zionist movement. He should be a man who has achieved success in his chosen field. His name should be widely known. It would be helpful if he were to come from a family in which Zionist tradition has been strong. He should have close personal tics with Israel, perhaps heretofore confined to such tilings as investment, philanthropy or cultural nffairs, but free from nny political involvement.

Such a man would certainly not submit his candidacy for President of the World Zionist Organization. He would probably resist the idea. But if such a man could be found every effort should be made to draft him into leadership. I submit that such a candidate does exist. He is Baron Edinond de Rothschild of Paris. He bears the honored name of his grandfather, who was responsible for the founding of many settlements in P a l e s ti n e and worked closely with the Zionist Organization until his death in The contemporary Baron Edmond de Rothschild is 42 years old. He has been associated with the major benefactions of the Rothschild family to Israel in. recent years, but beyond that he has also been involved in large scale industrial enterprises intended to help set this country on a firm economic basis. The Rothschilds He is a man of ideas and of convictions, He is decisive. He was born to lead, and he knows how to organize action. He enjoys the confidence of the leadership of the State of Israel but he speaks up boldly when he differs with them. His home is in
France, the second largest concentration of Jewish population in the free Diaspora after the United States. He speaks English fluently. The first Baron Edniond de Rothschild became Honorary President of the Jewish Agency upon its establishment in l!)2i). As President of the World Zionist Organization the current Baron Edmond can rescue tho movement from the ignominious fate for which it seems otherwise destined. He can transform it into an effective medium for organization and action in the name of a united Jewish people. He can render a historic service to his people, though it will mean a sacrifice to him. comparable in a way to that endured by the Viennese journalist, Theodor Herzl, when he became the first president of the movement. Ambitious Zionist politicians, parly bosses and many of the entrenched bureaucrats and office holders may not welcome such a choice, but there is no doubt in my mind that the masses of Zionists everywhere would rally to the kind of inspired leadership 'which he could provide. Can a grass roots movement be created? Will this generation of Zionists have the vision to seize the opportunity?
