Our Jewish Heritage Editor's Note: Des Molnes--At a community* banquet held May 27, 1973 at Hotel Fort Des Molnes, B'nai B'rlth named Sidney Rubin 1973 Man of the Year. Mr. Rubin has been a leader in both theses Moines and national community for many years. Following are excerpts from his acceptance speech made at the banquet. ... By SIDNEY RUBIN . I am deeply, moved by the great honor you have bestowed upon me tonight. Although my name has been used' on this award, I stand here as a representative of many people who have somehow come together tonight. Our family c a m e to t h e shores of America in the early years of this century. Tiiey left the pale of settlement because of the Czarist perseuctions and , because - they had heard that America was an open and free land where every man — even a Jew.— had the opportunity to prosper and the right to live and to practice his faith as he saw fit. When they came here, they didn't realize that they were not only fleeing from a brutal tyranny. They were also leaving behind a way of life that was warm and beautiful, full of love and joy and meaning in the midst of all the proverty, pain and persecution that they endured. In Europe, It was easy to be a Jew. My father's shtetl Was thoroughly Jewish. Even the poorest house had a true king and queen on Shabbos. Everyone knew how to daven. When a new b a b y was born, the people used to congregate outside the house and chant the Sh'ma, so he would hear It and start to learn it from the first week of his life. People grew up in a totally Jewish environment. There was no Jewish identity crisis. Identity? Who e v e r h e a r d of the w o r d ? There w a s poverty-sickness-hungerpersecution.. And there w a s plenty of identity. Everyone had it. It was called Yiddishkeit in those days. P e o p l e didn't have to think about being Jewish or to dream up special programs in order to encourage Jewish identity. They lived as Jews every minute of every day. They studied and learned and discussed social issues and personal problems f r o m a Jewish point of view. It was a normal and natural part of their lives. When my father moved to America, l i k e thousands of Immigrants, ho discovered that, life .was very hard.' There was still poverty. There was • still sickness. T h e r e was s t i l l hunger. B u t t h e r e was— freedom) '; , Our family was helped by the settlement houses and the community centers that had been aet up to help people adjust to life in this new land. They-learned English.- TJieytried to get rid of their accents. They learned bow to dress the way Americans dress. Some even changed their names in

Community Action Committee Report <>; ' By DICK LEVITF, Chairman .Steering Committee The worftof vthe Steering Committee and Community Action' Committee has progressed quite rapidly. We're now finalizing our plans for the ground breaking ceremony, at a time when both Governor Bay* and Mayor Olson can attend. The architect plans are complete and include all the facilities we v/ill need. Borings indicate there will be no problem with the footings. The contractor bids have been taken and total slightly under our estimates. Our fund raising campaign is nearly completed and quite successful. We have enough to pay for the new build ng and furnishings and to establish an endowment fund to help support our future.operating budget. It would indeed be a thrilling moment for me and a » h i s t o r i c time for our community If I could honsslly report on such exciting progress. One ot our first steps was to address ourselves to some rather difficult questions. We asked how we can most effectively invest this communities resorces so as |o enrich the quality of life for the Jews of our area. We asked: "What are our goals?" What should be our objectives? A sizeable delegation from Des Moines traveled to Chicago to visit with Dr. Leon JIck and his staff of the Institute of Jewish Life. As many of you know, the Mission of the Institute is to deal with some of the very questions our Steering Committee is asking. We have asked oar local agencies to make some projections concerning their programming and future need for facilities. We have asked them to do some serious blue sky thinking about their present approach to dispensing services and whether there might be a better way. •What services, and facilities should be sponsored, and operated by the congregation; what by the total Jewish Community? ' Should we build a so called "classical" Jewish ; ./Community .Center witli gym, pool, health club and other recreational and leisure time facilities as the primary focal point? Some visionaries
have siiggested we create a Center for Jewish Life, a campus like form which eventually would include a new Iowa Jewish Home, a retirement facility for our more independent senior citizens, classrooms for the Bureau, a Jewish library, a community archive and museum as well as those facilities, to be found in the best of the so call "classical" Jewish Community Centers. We repeatedly encounter that most difficult of all questions; What should be the role and mission of the. congregation and what should be the role and mission of Ibe Community as a whole? Lest you feel these arc impractical questions to be relegated to the dreamer, our Steering Committee's preliminary investigations tell as our Iowa Jewish Home is poorly placed and severly handicapped in rendering a full range of services to our senior citizens, particularly those who are independent,or only semi-dependent. An Iowa Jewish Home which could serve dependent, semi-dependent and independent aged sharing a site with recreational, leisure time, classroom, meeting room, auditorium and other facilities used by the total Jewish Community offers many humanistic and economic advantages. Are we dreaming an impossible' dream? I think not. As to where we go from here, I hope I have you convinced we are now ready to forge ahead toward development of a plan. Our Steering Committee and the Board of Governors of the Federation and will recommend that^ we invest a reasonable amount of additional time and resources in the development of a comprehensive plan for the enrichment of Jewish Life in Des Moines, The plan,would deal with the programs and services that should be provided, costs of constructing necessary facilities, operational costs, personnel requirements and recommendations for revised o^ginizational structures. In closing, I would like to solicit your ideas. Should we build at all? If so, should it be a so-, called "classical" Jewish Community Center or should we plan for more? We need, the best of everyone's thinking. Please let me hear from you.

BBYO NEEDS ADULT SUPPORT Recently there have b e e n several editorials about the state of youth groups. This is a commentary on qne aspect brought up in these articles, LACK OF ADULT SUPPORT given to youth groups, particularly qualified adyjsors. Des Moines AZA has recently run several articles in the Press pleading for adult advisors. One person answered these desperate pleas. Where' does the adult community place its values? In fundraising, buildings, and . lots of monthly releases; or in the future adult community. If those of us in youth groups were content with our abilities In running our youth groups would we need to constantly beg for help. Something Is dreadfully wrong whe'n out of a' community of 3,000 persons 2 people can't or won't give of their time to build future leaden. Where the problem begins or ends I do not know but we could all start with a healthy look at onr values and bur priorities. Des Moines BBYO has as much dedication as any other youth group in Des Moines. Maybe with qualified a d u l t support we could find direction and eliminate "The Status of Youth Groups Today."

QfeWmers Review By Sam This group .of retired and semi-retired business and professional men, held their first luncheon meeting last December, with an attendance of 18 men. Meetings are held every other Tuesday and at ( h i s week's gathering, all attendance retards were broken with a crowd of 77! For the balance of the hot weather .season all our meetings will be held in the air-conditioned Social Hall of Beth El Synagogue. This week, movie films and equipment from the JCC was brought out to Beth El, and the regular movie hour started at 11 a.m. ' Lunch, prepared and served by Mollie Delman and Lucille White and the group of volunteers, was-served at noon. Our thanks, to Bernice Kaiman, Dorothy Rubenstein, Toby Kagan, Lila'Lutz, Judy Katskee, Lila Jacoby, and Rose Roffmafa. Only at.the "Oldtimers gatherings can you get a great lunch "with such service for $1.50 and no tipping! ' After lifnch, our giujst speaker, the Honorable Judge Elizabeth Davis,"Pittman,»gavo us a very hlgiily interesting talk
Zwelback on the subject of "Minorities." Her talk touched, from the time "Minority Children" start school, and the type of education they get, until their adult years, when many of them get involved in criminal activities, and the problems they and the whole community are faced with, as a- result of such activities. Douglas County Attorney, Donald Knowlesr accompanied Judge Pittman to our meeting, and he very ably assisted her in answering the legal problems, during the "Question & Answer" period.
