Parents often come to the Jewish Community Center office to ask about Day Camp. They know that it is an organized activity which is carefully supervised and provides summer fun for children. There are, however, other questions which parents want to know. Parents may ask: "What kind of leadership Is responsible for supervising the camp experience of my child?" To this we answer that staff is selected on the bases of abilities, understanding, and liking of children, skill and leadership, and their enjoyment of the out-of-doors. The importance of leadership is never underestimated! "Guidance and helpfulness is the keynote of camp leadership." "What is the content of this supervised program?" The camp program is a diversified program set up to meet the needs and interests of children who attend camp. It includes experience in living in the out-of-doors, nature crafts, arts, singing, sports, dancing, dramatics, and others which are of interest and value to children. "Are there values for ray child beyond the experience and acquisition of skills previously mentioned?" There are benefits which children carry away from camp which result from participation both as individuals and as members of a group. Children come away from camp better able to care for themselves and able to stand on their own two feet. They have achieved a greater degree of independence. There is an increased ability to participate as a member of a group and to co-operate with other children and adults. These, and other social gains, resulting from camping experiences, are often considered to be the most valuable benefits children derive from camp. Parents often ask questions with regard lo a particular kind of child. For example, "I would like to have my child attend camp, but'lie is so shy he will never participate." Yes, it is true that some children may not be ready to attend camp, but others should attend The shy child can derive a great deal from his camp experience. The importance of the camp staff in this matter cannot be underestimated, since it is through their assistance that children are encouraged to participate and gain further confidence in their own abilities. Many children end the Day Camp season with a new awareness and appreciation of their own skills and potentials. -What value is a Day Camp experience for my child?" One could readily list the following: Growth in taking care of oneself, better participation with groups, new outdoor experience, a new awareness of nature, new physical skills, and a spiritual gain which includes a new awareness of democracy and one's Jewish heritage. To the camper, camp has meant FUN, new skills, treasured memories, health, friends, and social gains.

Johnson today welcumed Israel's Prime Minister of Levi Eshkol with an unusually warm tribute to Israel's achievements and expressions of support of Israel's security and Middle East peace objectives.

President Johnson lauded Israel's process, which he said is " g r e a t l y admired" by all Americans. He said that Israel met and mastered "monumental" economic problems, and has "shown all the world how to use science and technology to improve man's life on the planet."

Washington, June ], <JTA)— Following is the text of President Johnson's w e l c o m i n g speech to Prime Minister Eshkol delivered at the White House lawn ceremony: Johnson to Eslikol '•Mr. Prime Minister, ladies and gentlemen: I am very happy, Mr. Prime Minister, to welcome you to our country. Your predecessors have visited my country informally several times in the past, but this is the first official visit by a Prime Minister of Israel. We are pleased that you have come. My countrymen greatly admire the progress made by your people. You have met and mastered monumental problems of economic survival. You have shown all the world how to use science and technology to i m p r o v e man's life on the planet. ''Today, Israel is a vital, prosperous land, a symbol of the courage and the strength of her people. The United States is proud to have assisted in this high enterprise. We are prepared to continue our contributions to technical advancement in Israel, particularly in the field of desalination of water. We are aware, Mr. Prime Minister, of the problems of political adjustment that Israel f a c e s with her neighbors. We know that you want to live in peace with those neighbors, and we believe it not only possible but imperative that those problems be peacefully resolved, bringing justice to all as well as security for all. "We welcome this opportunity to exchange views with you on matters of mutual interest. We share many common objectives, Mr. Prime Minister, chief of which is the building of a better world, a world in w h i c h every nation can develop its resources and develop them in freedom and peace. I am confident this visit will result in increased u n d e r standing behveen us and a strengthening of our already cordial relations." Premiere Kshkol's Response • "Mrs. Eshkol and I are deeply grateful for your kind invitation and warm welcome. It is a privilege to meet the statesman on whom destiny has laid so vast and historic a responsibility. In the short time since you, Mr. President, assumed your exalted office your deep dedication to peace, to freedom and to the welfare of ordinary people have aroused hope and confidence throughout the world. "The prophet Malachi, almost three thousand years ago delivered this eternal message: 'Have we not all one father; hath not one God created us.' In face of the danger to human survival In our time, this lasting truth, and with it, the sense of common destiny is cutting across the barriers of hostility and ideology which divide nations." "From Jerusalem, the city of immortal prophecy, and peace, I bear with me the best wishes of the people of Israel, to you Mr. President, the first citizen of this great country. You fulfill the injunction of our sages, to love peace and pursue peace. "Mr, P r e s i d e n t , from this great center of government, here in Washington, symbol and repository of democracy, there has constantly come f o r t h a message of encouragement to nations in their struggle for liberty and the affirmation of human values. The aid and sympathy tendered to us by succes-
sive United Slates Governments, and by the people-of the United States, are engraved for all time on the tablets of our renewed nationhood." Through you, Mr. President. I wish to c o n ' e y from the people of Israel to the people of the United States, a heartfelt message of good will and of best wishes for their happiness and welfare." "Mr. President, this moment will always remain with me. For me, it is symbolic of the providential change which has taken place in the fortunes of my people—of the transition within so short a time, from the tragedy, which only two decades ago engulfed one-third of my people, to the new epoch of independence and construction, w h i c h commenced with the rise of Israel." "Only lasting faith in the fulfillment of prophecy enabled us to survive tribulation down the ages. In our time, it has been given to us to reaffirm in independence the ancient unbroken link between the people of Israel and the land of Israel. It is our belief that just as the prophecy of the restoration of Zion is being fulfilled, so too, will the prophecy of universal peace be vindicated. "Mr. President. I think you from the heart for your friendship, which is a source of the deepest encouragement to my people, as it faces the future with faith and hope."

Samuel Omaha, May 2!! . . . An extensive anti-democratic and antiJ e w i s h Campaign is "being waged with greatly increased intensity" by Arab propagandists, right-wing extremists and neoNazi " groups, often operating jointly, in South America and Europe. Samuel L. G3ber. National Field Secretary of the American Jewish Committee, said here today. Mr. Gaber reported on antidemocratic and anti-Jewish activities abroad during the coarse of the past year to a meeting S|»nsored by the Omaha Unit of the American Jewish Committee held here today at the home of Norman L. Hahn. 902 Dillon Drive. The report was based on material provided by the Committee's overseas offices and representatives. Mr. Halm and Leo Eisenstatt, of 707 National Bank Building, are cochairmen of the Committee's Omaha Unit. Mr. Gaber declared that three chief developments in Arab and neo-Nazi agitation are cause for serious concern. These developments are: 1. A highly accelerated campaign by Arab League offices and personnel in South America backed by "unlimited funds and carried out with top level propaganda skill." which is fomenting a massive campaign of hatred not only against Israel but also of a general anti-Semitic character. 2. Efforts by European neoNazi and extreme right-wing groups to renew notorious antiSemitic themes, particularly in relation to the forthcoming third session of the Ecumenical Council in Rome. Arab propagandists are intensifying their activities in E u r o p e , particularly Wo.st Germany. :i. The growth of an "antiSemitic publication network" which has made significant gains during the past year with the appearance of new neoNazi anti-Semitic publications in Western Germany. France and Spain. Mr. Gaber cited data and reports provided by the Committee's European office, which has conducted a study of neo-Nazi activities in Europe during the past year. Mr. Gaber. reported that neoNazi groups are renewing "notorious anti-Semitic themes as part of their propaganda assaults on the Ecumenical Council which is scheduled to reopen1 its sessions in September, 19G4. ' He said that the second session of the Ecumenical Council, like the first, "saw an exceptional effort made privately to distribute vicious anti-Semitic material to the Council Fathers." At the first session of the Ecumenical Council. Mr. Gaber disclosed a 700-page anti-Semitic volume was distributed under the title Complotto Contro La Ciesa (The Plot A g a i n s t the Churcbi. Mr. Gaber stated that the volume has recently been translated into German, from

its original Italian, has been printed in Spain, and is currently being circulated in Western Germany. The publication network of European e x t r e m i s t groups which has made significant gains in the past year. Mr. Gaber said, means that "practically every country in Europe has at least one anti Semitic publications appearing regularly." These publictions have a hard core of readers and support those who seek vigorously to influence others with antidemocratic and . antiJ e w i s h propaganda. He reported that in Western Germany, the Deutsche National Zeitung and Soldaten Zeitung consolidated its position as a leading neo Nazi publication and has taken over two other extremist ppers in the process, hi Fiance, the past year saw the creation of the magazine Europe Action "with the obvious blessing and cooperation of most of Fiance's anti-Semitic and extremist organizations." In Spain there appeared a new illustrted bi-weekly Juanperez, which features extremist antidemocratic propaganda themes. Mr. Gaber warned aginst "undue complacence" about these publications, since they represent the preparation of Ideological platforms and bastions for future subversive actions centered on anti-democratic and a nt i • Jewish agitation. At the same time Mr. Gaber said that the neo Nazi groups • with the exception of the neoFascist Movemento Social Italiano in Italy—•remained divided and fragmented and have no position of real political lever-' age." These groups. Mr. Gaber said, unable to mount their own political offensives, "persist in their favorite tactic of exploiting almost any protest movement." He cited examples as the attemot of Belgian fascists to profit from the Belgian doctors' opposition to the government health plan and the efforts of French right wingers to inliltrale farmer protest and French student movements. In Western Germany, extremist and neo-Nazi groitns "seek to play on the fear that any lessening of tension between the United States and the Soviet Union will be at the expense of Germany." These groups also advance racist theories in Germany labelling African and Asiatic nationalist movements as Communist dominated and determined to wipe out the white race. Both in France and in West Germany Arab propagandists are maintaining economic and other pressures "on these who

do business with or show friendship toward Israel" In Western Germany this year the Information Office of the United Arab R e p u b l i c has distributed a propaganda piece entitled "The Problem of the Palestine Refugees." which is, in reality, a collation of diatribes against Zionism. Jews and Judaism. The pamphlet denies that six million Jews were destroyed bv the Nazis. European neo-Nazi organizations, according to Mr. Oabcr. "are taking encouragement from developments in South America in the hope that economic and political difficulties there will create new opportunities for extremists." Turning to the situation in Latin America. Mr. Gaber drew particular attention to what he called "a massive campaign of hatred conducted by the Arab L e a g u e with huge unlimited funds and a generous supply of all kinds of mass media resources." At the same time, however, he pointed out that the A r g e n t i n e Government has taken strong measures against Tacuara, the underground neoNazi fascist g r o u p which is working jointly with the Arab League in "spreading hate and creating so much divisivene.ss among the Argentine people." Mr. Gaber said that the Arob League campaign has two main objectives: 1. The development of widespread support within the ranks of the Arab community. '•I An intensified propaganda program to spread anti-Jewish* material to every major level of Latin American society.' Major tactics of the Arab League have included: 1. The establishment in liHV! of the monthly Nacion Arabe. sold c h e a p l y at practically every newsstand in major Argentine cities and distributed free of charge to civic leaders and opinion molders. No foreign embassy or information center in Argentina "has ever launched such a large circulation propaganda magazine in Argentina." Mr. Gaber said. Each version of Nacion Arabe manages to feature anti-Semitic and anti-Israel slurs. 2. Publication of books and pamphlets which invariably include attacks against Israel and Judaism as well as a steady flow of press conferences and many forms of lobbying which maintain a high-pitched climate of denunciation against Jews without respite in the press and other mass media. 3. Concealed sponsorship of anti-Jewish activities by extremist groups and through the setting up of front organizations which attack Israel and Judaism. Founded in lflOG. the AMERICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE combats bigotry, protests the civil and religious rights of Jews and advances the cause of human rights for all. The Committee maintains offices and representatives in ten countries overseas.

"Nathan The Wise." While the play was on. a number of spectators applauded loudly and >cheered when one of the actors spoke a line from the drama: "It doesn't matter if the Jew be burned." Other members of the audience, incensed over this outburst, protested the anti-Semitic demonstration. In a letter to the director of the Burghtheater, where the incident took p l a c e , the Minister of Education expressed his "deepest indignation" over the affair.
director of the yeshiva, now .located a mile from the original site, said the school had been "compelled" to move out of the building because its pupils wer<» repeatedly attacked and blackmailed for small sums of money by youths in the Brownsville neighborhood which bus become increasingly a Negro area.
