The follow-up will be concerned primarily with the parents' remarks: "My son was never raised to kill a man." "My daughter is a good girl. She would never do anything bad." The fact still remains tliat the youth did something wronj;. Hut why can't the parents believe it? Was it lack of communication? Was it lack of understanding? What are the best and worst tilings in parent-teen-ager relationships? Marleuc Selirciber, Senior '"The best tiling is knowing that you can confide in your parents, You'll feel better after telling them. The worst thing is not getting the car when you ask for it."

Sanford Fieedinan, Sophomore "The beat thing tliat occur3 is an understanding of each other's thoughts. When this coexistence o c c u r s , this formulates a substantial life. The worst thing is a lack in their understanding of each other." Suralr-Perehnaii, Junior "The best is being able to talk to your parents and telling them things you cant tell other kids. The worst is that they just don't see things the way we do. Perry Katner, Freshman "The best thing is when parents understand your problems. The worst thing is when they turn up their noses at something that means a lot to the teenager but means nothing to the parent."

By Curl Alpcrt Haifa—The problem of relations between the Jew in Israel and his Jewish brethren elsewhere in the world disturbs thinking people here. The aftermath of the Eichmann trial has produced unexpected results. The fear had been that the new generation born and raised in Israel would know.nothing of the great catastrophe of European Jewry, and that the tragic story would fade into historic mists—to be regarded as something remote, like the Spanish Inquisition. One of the purposes of the Eichmann trial was to impress upon Israelis born or matured in the 20 years since Nazism, the facts of the tragic story so that they might react to it as a part of the history of their own times. Distorted View The trial and the many expositions which followed, including the museums and exhibitions here, haVe had their effect all too well. A group of social scientists from Tel Aviv University queried some 500 Israeli youth ' in the 15-22 age group to ascertain their composite conception .of the Diaspora Jew. The stereotype that emerges is not a pretty one. The typical non-Israeli Jew, as they see him, sounds Jnuch like a caricature of the Jew as an anti-Semite might draw it. The Diaspora Jew Is, in this composite, sickly, palc-f a c c d, fearful, timid, confused. He is characterized by weakness, nervousness, lack of self confidence. • • ; . ' . . . . . While all Israeli youth have seen visiting Jewish tourists, their basic impression of the character and appearance of the Diaspora Jew seems to have been drawn not from such personal observation, but from the impact of the European catast r o p h e and the consequent image of a helpless, fearful Jew •

While the thousands of tourists certainly do liut look or act like the fearful skeletons of the concentration camps, neither are they always the most representative specimens of the Jewish communities from which they come. Attempt (o Inform The most serious attempt to provide authentic information of the nature and character of the overseas Jew is a new bi-monthly Hebrew periodical which is a supplement of the Histadruth daily, Davar. It is regrettable that this important program has been taken up by a partisan group in Israel which naturally seeks support and commitment for its own point of view, but the initiative is to be commended in view of the absence of any serious move on the part of the government or ether bodies. The others are all so busy trying to educate and influence overseas Jews that they are neglecting their own population at home. Reasonable Approach In its first issue the supplement, Tefutsot, sets a reasonable basis for its approach to the problem. In effect the editors say: "Let's stop warning the Jens of (lie free world thai iheir days are numbered; thai what happened In Germany will happen io them, and I hey might as well come to Israel at once." "We should reconcile ourselves to the fact that the Diaspora will continue to exist into the foreseeable future. We need them add they need us. Let's gel to Know each other. Furthermore, let's stop looking upon them only as a source of financial aid. We must realize that we are no longer dealing with the type of community which we' once knew in Poland. This is a new type of Jew who lives in America." A good beginning has been made, but much still remains to be done.

Paris (JTA)—Chief Rabbi Joseph K a p l a n of France conferred w i t h Premier Ceorges Pompidou on what was believed to be an unsuccessful effort to o b t a i n compensation for the Jewish community for community buildings and synagogues abandoned in Algeria. Th"; property, since taken over by Premier Ben Bella's regime, is estimated to be worth several million dollars. It includes community's centers, schools and hospitals as well as synagogues. The Premier contended that if compensation was paid to Jews, similar compensation would be sought and have to be provided for other religious communities, such as Uie Catholics and the various Protestant churches.

Speaking of relationships, the Jewish Press is certainly trying to establish a good relationship with the Youth through this column. I've enjoyed writing the column, and if you're interested in doing some writing for Tech Talk, now's the time to speak up. Read Mrs, Gerelicks column today for the details.

21)* Itv Milton Friedman Has a chain reaction of appeasement of Egypt's Nassar been ignited by the Johnson Administration's rescue of Nasser from the wrath of Congress on the aid issue? It is now evident that the German Embassy in Washington reported fully to Chancellor Erhard in Bonn on the r o l e of President Johnson in the recent Egyptian aid controversy. SURRENDER? Egyptian newspapers boasted that Nasser's power and influence were r e c o g n i z e d and strengthened by^the "surrender" of President Johnson who had beseeched Congress to continue surplus commodity shipments to Egypt. 'Hie White House gave in after Nasser threatened to collaborate, more closely with Communism. The American surrender encouraged N a s s e r to take an even tougher stand with West Germany to force cancelation of German arms contracts with Israel. Chancellor E r h a r d of West Germany, noting the Washington trend, capitulated to Nasser's blackmail. Mr. E r h a r d acted on the belief that Germans were more concerned with preventing East German penetration of the Near East than in the preservation of Israel. The irresponsible G e r m a n role in the Near East is now the subject of world attention. But the American commitments to preservation of peace and stability in that region are losing m e a n i n g in the new turn of events. The time lias come to remind Washington that Israeli security cannot rest solely upon a changing and cynical Germany. Israel depends on a vague scries of guarantee* voiced at election time and on' other occasions by various president';. Some time ago, the United States provided Hawk anti-aircraft missiles to Israel. But more recently, the State Department has been preoccupied with avoiding Arab criticism. Israel was urged to seek its defensive needs from West Germany. Washington urged the Germans to sell I s r a e l used American equipment. The State Department meanwhile encouraged continued American economic aid to Nasser on grounds that this promoted peace in the N e a r East. Nasser, thus strengthened, diverted more of his own funds to the purchase of additional ultramodern Soviet arms. He sought to hire more German rocket scientists and military technicians. A dangerous situation is dev e l o p i n g in the Near East through the series of capitulations by Washington and Bonn to Nasser's b l a c k m a i l . Had President Johnson heeded Congress rather than (lie State Department, Nasser might have been put in tils place. Now ho fs (he N e a r East's "Man on Cnmcl-bacU." U. S. COMPLICITY Washington complicity in German attitudes has • been overlooked. The United States, of course, did not concur in Boon's cancelation of German a r m s contracts with Israel. Nor did America tell Bonn to refuse to extend the Statute of Limitations covering trial of Nazi war crim. jnals. And no Washington official urged Bonn to send German rocket scientists to work: in Egyptian military industries!. The United States, however, In its obsession with rehabilitating West Germany as the cornerstone of N.A.T.O., collaborated in sweeping the Nazi era under the rug. The fiction of a totally "New G e ' r m a n y " has been written on both isdes of the Atlantic. The reparations agreement brought Bonn a cloak of immunity f r o m criticism. Nazis returned to high posts, Nazi in-,, dustrlalists defied dccartelization orders. The State Department.did not want to offend German sensibilities or r e m i n d

WHAT NOW State Department officials justified the role of Germans in Egypt, minimized the aggressive intentions of the Nasser regime, and debunked Israel's fears. Israel is the world's only nation, menaced by Soviet arms in the h a n d s of pro-Communist neighbors, which lias such trouble obtaining American defense assistance. Why should Israel be forced to rely upon secondhand U. S. tanks from West Germany? The United States has enough tanks to sell directly to IsracL It is nothing less than American appeasement of N a s s e r which led to the top level de-. cision to pass off responsibilities for Israeli security needs to the Germans. Every single item or-

dered by Israel from West Germany could have been shipped directly from the United States. The State Department was frantic to avoid direct involvement with Israeli defense r e q u i r e ments. The question now to be asked is what will happen if a powermail Nasser launches armed aggression against Israel'.' Will the Slate Department tell Israel to apply to the Germans for help?

THE TRUTH ABOUT UNPOPULAR PARENTS I am the former Sara Yaffe from Omaha. My husband and I were BBYO advisors from 1049 to 1056. We remember that the problems,we had then were with the parents, not the teenagers. When we were advisers there were parents who permitted their children to go to BBYO conventions, knowing that only delegates were permitted to go, thus creating problems. There were many times when we couldn't get parents to chaperon dances or weekend BBYO activities because there were other things they would rather do. It was always let the other fellow do the work and have the responsibilities, In Dallas today we have 7 youths groups and a waiting list a mile long. 1Let the parents who voiced such a protest against BBYO show their faces and take their youngsters out so that others can join. More chapters in our community could be formed, but the lack of advisors prevents many boys and girls who are interested in BBYO from participating. So come forward parents and do your share. Be advisors, believe me you get much more out of it than you put into it. My husband and I are proud of the time we gave 68|(. BBYO. Mrs. Maurice Gfller Dallas, m .

filed soon in the Quebec Legislature will pave the way for Jewish membership on the Protestant School Board of Greater Montreal for the first time in the 40 year-history of the school board.

Resort Bars Jews, Kennedy ICiit iuesis New York (JTA)—Stephen E. Smith, brother-in-law of Senator Robert F. Kennedy, was criticized by one of the Senator's backers during the election last fall, for staying at an upstate resort that has been accused of discriminating against Jews. The Kennedy backer, R. Peter Straus, president of Radio Station WMC'A, of New York, said that it was "incredible" that Mr. Smith, who is married to Sen. Kennedy's sister, Jean, stay at the Lake Placid Club. Although the club is not a place of public accommodation and may legally bar Jews, the issue of anti-Semitism has repeatedly been raised in connection with various conventions held at the resort. In 1958, the New York State Conference of Mayors was moved away from the club after New York's Mayor Robert F. Wagner had said he could not attend. Reached by telephone at the club, Mr. Smith said he had never heard that the club barred Jews, and indicated that he would attempt to arrange other accommodations.

Louisiana Democrat, who is chairman of the committee, announced that the group has ordered a staff study to help it determine whether it should investigate the Nazi Party, the KKK, Black Muslims, and the Minuteinen. Such an i n v e s t ig.itinn. the Louisiana Congressman said, "would provide badly needed information," but it may be "sometime" before the HUAC decides on the probe.
