Dullles to Find Sfat e of Israel Receptive §® M. E. Defense London (JTA)—When Secretary of State John Foster Dulle:. arrives in Israel, he will find . the Israel Government receptive _to the American defense conception for the Middle East, the Sunday ; Observer, leading British newspaper, reports today in a cable from Tel Aviv. The cable Mys that Premier lien Gurlon and Foreign Minister Sharett intend to present to Mr. Dulles the following views: 1. That no Middle Eas,t defense organization is possible without taking Israel into consideration; 2. That Israel's high standards of technical know-how have made her air force the most efficient In the Middle East and her industrial and assembly plants are the finest ond latest in the region: 3. That contrary to current Arab claims, peace between Israel and the Arab States,Is not impossilile provided both sides are ready for compromise; and 4. That Israel doeE not ask the United States to mediate between it and the Arab states, but desires that the U, S. Use. its influence with the Arab States to induce them to sit do«rn at direct, peace talks with .Israel and hammer out the basic issues.

The Israelis BCO n number of areas In which there Is room for compromise in working out ,an Arab-Israeli peace, the Observer article states, including: the Jewish State's readiness to, make a major financial contribution to the resettlement of Palestine refugees In tho Arab countries, If normal relations can be secured with the Arab states; Israel would also bo prepared to make minor frontier "rectifications on tho basis of humane considerations; nnd, Israel would.be willing to offer Jordan a free'zone at tho port of Halfu to relieve the economic problems

Inflicted on the Arab state by lack of n Mediterranean outlet.

However, the Observer article points out, the Israelis would only be willing to make these concesions as part of a general and permanent peace settlement with the Arab stales. Tho Israelis have Just approved the transfer to Arab refugees of the first 20,000 pound, o( a total of 1,000,000 pound", which Israel has promised to relcaso from fro7.cn bonk accounts, as a demonstration of good will, the article reports. Another such gesture, the Observer continues, Is the granting of permission to some 2,400 Arab refugees to return to Israel to allow them to be reunited with their families and the granting of permission to 000 Arab3 to leave Israel for the came purpose.

For their part, Israeli policymakers intend to suggest that the Arab states make certain concessions, including tho following: 1. Agree to the resettlement of Palestinian refugees In tho Arab countries, particularly in fertile regions of Syria and Iraq; 2. Halt border Incidents and violation of Israeli territory by both regular Arab armies and civilians; 3. Discontinue the boycott of Israel am resume trade relations with tho Jewish State; nnd, 4. That Efiyp permit free and unhampered navigation of the Suez Canal and the Red Sea by Israeli chipping.

The Observer says that when Sec. Dulles arrives In Israel hi will be told that British surrende of military bases in the Suez Canal area, would be of "essential concern" to Israel and that Israel feels that such a devclopmenl should be conditioned on Egypt'i willingness to accept certain obll gatlons! concerning the use of these basc>,

Klutznick Stresses Importance of Israel Washington (JTA)—A plea to the great nations ol the world not to overlook Israel "where freedom and democracy have shown their strength" was voiced by Philip Klutznick, former Omahan, newly elected .president of the B'nal B'rith, addfesslng the. concluding session of the order's twentieth triennial convention.

Klutznick addressed a special pica to the United States Government to persuade the Arab states to end their economic boycotts and blockades of Israel.

"To preserve and strengthen Israel is to sustain hope for all oppressed people—to permit anything else Is to ravage a great concept and to create despair," Klutznick .declared. He warned that the Soviet Union sought to take advantage of differences between the Arabs and Israel and that peace in the Middle East was important to world peace and the free world.

Klutznick declared that "the threat of Communism must be met and defeated on the domestic scene." He emphasized that "no less important in the category of inimical activity is any threat at official or unofficial levels against the fundamental freedoms of America. To win a battle against Communism and to lose the other against our fundamental freedoms will leave us a nation that is a shell, not a reality."

On Radio and TV This Sunday from 10:30-11 a.m., over WOW Hadlo, the Eternal Light will present "A Measure of Freedom."

Shavuos Festival of the First Harvest Shavous is denominated in the Bible as the festival of the first fruits. Tradition also associates it with the idea of Revelation. In mediaeval days, Shavuos was the time when the parent took his youngster for his first visit to the. synagogue and in more recent years, it has become also identified aa the season of Confirmation.

It is a tribute of the attachment of the Jew to the soil that he has carried over to his synagogue and ritual the memories of his ancient agricultural background. If he was detached from the land, on Shavuos, it is customary to read the Book of Buth and thus the Jew could live vicariously through the lot of the Jewish farmer, Boaz, Today, Boaz again lives in Israel. There are ten thousands of him. They constitute a pride not only for Israel but for world Jewry. Not a little of the response which Israel evokes derives from the fact that it has fostered a back to the earth movement. The luft mensch has been transformed into a tiller of the soil.

The first Jewish settlers on the soil in Israel scored their initial success as grape growers. Subsequently the orange pardess became the forte of the Jewish agriculturalist. The variety of crops has constantly expanded. Experiments which appear successful have even been made in the growing of the Virginia type of tobacco. What is perhaps more significant is a change in the trend of form of the agricultural system of Israel. Pormercly the kibbutz might have been Baid to be the epitome of the 'entire agricultural life of Israel, bnt now the moshavim or individual tillers of the soil exceed those in the collective settlement* and the tendency seems to he toward the more conventional farming unit.

One of the most thrilling chapters of Israel's agriculture is being written .presently in the Negeb. Thanks to Israel Bonds, a hnge pipe factory has been built at Yuvnl Gad, which will bring water to land which has been thirtsy for almost 2,000 years and we may expect this land to gratcfnlly return the favor with smiling harvests. »

The Significance of Shavuos

By David Mordecal

Unlike the High Holy Days, Passover and Chanukah, the ancient Jewish holiday of Shavuos has not been as "successful" in the Urlt.1 States as it might be.

the rule is Lag B'Omer—that is, the 33rd day of the Counting of the Omer, when, according to tradition, an epidemic lhat had raged among the disciples of Kabbl Aklba was broken. Marriages may, therefore, be performed on Lag 13'Omer.

Some Orthodox rabbis believe that the fifth day of iyar (which was celebrated this year on April 19), and which is the anniversary date of the establishment of the State of Israel, should also be pu' in the same category as Lag B'Omer and marriages should be permitted.

One of the outstanding recent developments of Shavuos among Reform Jews is that custom of confirming boys and girls on this day. The Reform congregations say that the giving of tho Torah to the Jewish people on Shavuos is a highly appropriate lime for confirming youths in the traditions of the.Torah.

On Chanukah, Purim, Passover and even Rosh Uashanah, we add to the traditional celebrations of these holidays by putting on our tables special delicacies. Who does not look forward to Passover "kneidlach," Purim "hamanlaschen."

Chanukah . "lalkes," and slices of Chalah smeared with honey on Iiosh Hashanah? Shavuos, generally speaking, does not enjoy such a distinction, although in some homes it is traditional to restrict the diet to dairy dishes at this season.

Shavuos should be instead a holiday when we' pay attention to the spiritual and moral concepts handed down for more than 4,000 years in the chain of Jewish living. This is a period when we should, as a people who gave religion to the world, concentrate on the relifiioui; precepts and ethical teaching:; which have been emulated throughout history by many other peoples.

During the High Holy Days, we rededicate ourselvs to a good life, to a life of ethics conforming to the Torah's preachments. But this is an individual rededication; each of us must communicate our innermost thoughts and hopes and prayers to the Almighty during this awesome period.

On Shavuos, wo should reassess the eternal verities of our faith.

We should take cognizance of our heritage, and become rcacqualntcd with the Bible. The. giving of the Torah to the Jewish people on Shavuos must surely be as. warmly and as enthusiastically observed as the rcconsecration of the Holy Temple by "the Hasmoneans.

Harry Richman: "After 45 a man begins to have thoughts about women; before that he has feelings."

Edward G. Hoblnson: "When a woman cays sho can't be flattered, agree with her; this will flatter her."

United Nations (JTA) — The itinerary which the Secretory of State, John Foster Dulles, has chosen for his visit to the Middle East would seem to be a normal one, but it has assumed a significance* owiritf to" tho fact that ho rijcctcd the political divisions whhh (Imp up thp rtfiion and is fulluwini; what, is the natural geographical loutt.

Inilcail of visiting the Arab States first anil then going to Israel, a course which mij'.ht have flattered t h c susceptibilities of some of the pulituuni in the area, Mr. Dulles has decided to go to Egypt first,' then to Israel, and after that to Jordan, Syria, and the oilier Arab States. Since time immemorial, Israel has served as a bridge between Enypl and the other stales in the Middle East.

Almost Forgotten What has almost been forgotten in all the tumult and the shouting liver tho Palestine Dispute is that the .engineers and the practical men of science made Israel such a connecting link, that a railway runs from Cairo through Tel Aviv and Beirut to Ankara and Istanbul where it hooks up with the vast railway network of Europe, At present the railway is cut on the borders of Israel, but through no fault of the Israelis, and the traffic no longer moves in the way it was meant to go.

At the United Nations, Mr. Dulles' itinerary is regarded as a demonstration that Israel is the bridge, • and that it should serve as such a bridge, and that the connection must be restored if there is to be peace and security in the region, ills trip is considered to be of the utmost importance, if only because it is the first time that a Secretary of State has visited the Middle East.

Main Purpose There is no doubt in anyone's minds here that Mr. Dulles' main purpose is to cfect a peace settlement; it is remembered that he told a press conference at the U. N. headquarters that there could be no Middle East Defense. Command, no regional defense organizations whatsoever, without there being a peace settlement. In other words, the Secretary of State was saying that a peace settlement was the pre-condition for any other pacts or business that might be done while he was in the Arab States.

Not only is Mr. Dulles' itinerary the natural way of visiting the Middle East, but it is the best route politically, for Egypt is by far the most Important of the Arab States, and what Egypt does, the others will do. As observers here have said before now, there is no competition for first place in the Arab world, Egypt has that, bnt there is keen competition' for second place. In the rame way, there will be competition among these countries to be second in' signing a peace .wttlement. „ Flexible Stand * As far as can be learned here, there arc no outstanding issues between the Egyptians* and the Israelis; the Israelis have denied making any conditions for peace tallcs and say that they are ready to enter into nccotlalions immediately and that their stand b flexible and not fixed.. Of course, a withdrawal of troops from the Gaza Area where Egypt ha* half its army, and the end of the i l legal blockade of Israeli bound shipping in the Suez Canal, would improve the atmosphere for the peace conference.

Everyone points to the fact that the Egyptians were the first to agree to an armistice in Palestine, and the view hero is that they could be prodded into taking the lead to bring about a peace settlement if there were an unequivocal statement by the Secretary of Slate that such was vitally necessary and a matter of American policy. Mr. Dulles should bo able to make such a declaration after his tour of the Middle East.

New York (WNS)—Acquisition of a 17-dunam strip of tend in the Holy City.of Jerusalem for tho World-Academy for Higher Jewish Studies in Jerusalem was announced ^hcre at a press conference by Rabbi Herbert S. Goldstein, chairman of the Institution « board of trustees. The land, l o cated on Mount Herd directly o p posite the Tomb of Herzl, was purchased for $280,000. The Academy represents a merger of a number of research institutions for Higher Jewish Studies, which explores, develops and collates the great treasure!) of Jewish thought, Dr. Goldstein disclosed.

Recipe of

By Edward Schlmmel Manager; BUclutone Hotel CHICKEN MARENGO Cut up 2 broilers, each weigh ing about 2 pounds. Rub each piece with a damp cloth, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with flour. In a heavy pan heat 4 tablespoons oil, or 2 tablespoons each oil and butter, and brown the chicken over a bright flame until golden, turning frequently.

Transfer the chicken to an earthenware Casserole and add 2 large cloves garlic, chopped finely, and a bonanet rsrnl. Add 1 cup white wine, I jigger brandy, and 2 large tomatoes, peeled and cut in pieces.

Cover the casserole tightly, lower the flame, and cook gently until the chicken pieces are almost tender, turning them several times with a wooden spoon. After 30 minutes, taste for seasoning and add 12 peeled mushroom cap* cut in quarters.

Cook for 10 minotes longer, or until the chicken is tender, and serve in the casserole, sprinkled With chopped parsley. ' The garnishing* for Chicken Marengo vary. The casserole may be sprinkled with chopped truffles or garnish to taste with cawiitons fried in butter, an egg fried in the oil for each serving, cooked crayfish or shrimp,: or mushrooms.

Golden Age Club The Golden Age Club, co-sponsored by lhe Omaha Section of the National Council of Jewish Women and the Jewish Community Center, will bold a 1 o'clock dessert luncheon meeting Monday, May 18, at the Jewish Com' munlty Center.

An interesting and enjoyable program has been planned.

San Francisco Jewry can point with pride to a successful handling of one of the toughest problems American Jewry has faced in helping Jewish refugees coming to the United States since Hitler ran amok In Europe. > Of all the groups among those newcomers, the greatest difficulty has been presented by the aged among the immigrants, who lacked family, friends, self - confidence and knowledge of their new nation's language.

YeV the San Francisco Committee for Service to Emigres, an affiliate of the Federation of Jewish Charities, has not only provided such refugees with selfsustaining employment and a new interest In life, but has done It at little cost to the: Jewish community. And the program is now in its tenth year.

What is perhaps most Interesting about this pioneering effort in rehabilitation of a particularly difficult group of aged Jews is the Conviction of the committee that it .can be duplicated in any substantial Jewish community.

The San Francisco Utility Workshop was established in May, 1943, tpprovide work opportunities and a' social and recreational outlet for elderly employable refugees, according to a report in the "Jewish Service Quarterly."

An Evcr-Growlnc Project The shop began operating with 32 men, most of them more than 65 years o£_ age. Later suitable Work" for women was found and S mixed Rroup has been employed since then. The number of aged refugees outgrew, the capacities of the • original rhop, which could handle a maximum of 50, and bigger quarters , were obtained, wlrere from 40 to 55 have been at work consistently.

Bcrnupe the volume of orderF has grown and the prospect of continuing business is Rood, still larger quarters have bec-n rented •with a goal of "boosting the workins capacity to 80 persons. The paid personnel consists of the original part-time manager; a fulltime assistant, himself a refugee, and a former employee of the shop. ; Employment is still limited to those over G5, but some handicapped ypungcr men and women have been given a chance to work.

These include a few blind refu-

gees, a few who arc too unstable to hold regular jobs and others with similar personal problems.

Toys and Ornaments The shop is not a salvage or thrift shop, and it docs not depend on donations of furniture or clothing or similar articles to be patched and repaired for sale. The Bhop simply provides the labor to perform a wide variety of Jobs within the competence of its working farce.

Typical of the work are recent jobs of packaging 100,000 boxes of Christmas tree ornaments, addressing envelopes and mailing campaign material,.and manufacture of simple wooden toys.

Jobs are obtained by the manager who contacts business firms in person or by telephone. The committee emphasizes that work is solicited only on the basis of satisfactory performance and price, and in line with a definite time schedule. No project of this kind, the committee says, can depend on the good will or philanthropy of its customers. It must pay its own way.

The shop can operate on the comparatively tiny budget of $3,600 a year because it earns enough to cover not' only all wage payments but also to pay for about half the overhead.

A Social Center, Too But if the shop only paid -a large part of its own way in providing work for its elderly participants, it would not fall short of the hopes of the planners.

The shop is far more than that.

It is as much a social center as a work opportunity for persons who would otherv/ise be unlikely to have cither jobs or social life.

Tlie 'men and women come us much for 'companionship as fbr work and they get both. Friendships are made, the atmosphere Is congenial and the spirit is excellent. Jewish festivals are celebrated as are birthdays and those happy occasion;; when a newcomer receives his or her citizenship.

Another benefit is that shop workers require less clinic care than they did • before coming to work. Many of the illnesses of the aged are psychological. Such illnesses are prevented for shop workers because of their occupation, their feeling of being useful and their general contentment due to companionship and' the cheerful atmosphere. (WNS)

The fruit of the righteous is a tree, of life, and _he that is wise winncth'souls.

Pride gocth before destruction, and an arrogant spirit before a fall.

A rebellious man seekcth only evil, therefore, a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

Talmud Rabbi Ishmael said: "If one wishes to be ..wise, he should occupy himself with the study of Nezikin (civil law), for there is no richer section of wisdom in the entire law than in Niukin which is like a natural fountain and those who wish to study civil law may take lesons of Rabbi Simeon."

Rabbi Huna, "do you believe me barrels of wine which turned to vinegar. On hearing of his misfortune, Rabbi Juan accompanied by some Rabbis came to visit him.

"I>et the master," said they, "investigate his affairs." "What," said Rabbi Huna, "do you believe we to have been guilty of wrongdoing?" "Shall we then," responded they, "suspect the Holy One, praised bo He, of rendering Judgment unjustly?" ' Rabbi Huna then said; "If you have heard anything against me, do not conceal it. Tell It to me." So they said to him: "We heard that the master allows his tenant no share in the vines when they arc pruned."

"Aye," said Rabbi Huna, "he has stolen a great deal of the produce of my vineyards and left not very much for me." 'There is a maxim," they replied, "that whoever l n l s from n thief smells of theft."

"If so," said he, "I promise to give him his share." Thereupon, according to some the vinegar turned to wine again and according to others, the price of vinegar rote to the price of wine.
