Mass. Synqgogue Desecrated; Publisher's Home Ransacked Holyokc, Mass (JTA) — AntiSemites ransacked the home of a newspaper publisher here last weekend, and carved swastika's on furniture and walls, after the paper had denounced the desecration of a local synagogue and an attempt to burn down the Jewish house of worship. The attack was made on the home of William Dwight, Sr., publisher of the Holyokc Transcript-Telegram. Mr. Dwight is not Jewish. In a statement telephoned from Miami, Mr. Dwight once more denounced the a t t a c k against the synagogue, declaring: "The desecration of the synagogue indicates there may be an element in our society of people with evil intent. The de-
secration of a synagogue or any other place of worship is a reprehensible act." Synagogue Attack The vandais who broke into Rodphey S h o1e m Synagogue scrawled black swastikas on the walls and set fire to part of the building. Firemen extinguished the flames in a closet off the lobby before they could spread. The two fool-high swastikas were found by Rabbi J a c o b Reiner when he arrived for evening services. He said that Torah scrolls had been thrown on the floor. Holyoke Fire Chief William Mahoney said that the closet fire was "definitely arson" and that the desecration did not appear to be the work of children.

Richmond, Va (JTA)—American Nazi Party leader George Lincoln Rockwell won at least 0,312 votes—more than one per cent of the total ballots c a s t in his unsuccessful bid for the Governorship of Virginia. Surprise was voiced in some quarters that Rockwell, whose Nazism is notorious throughout the state, was able to poll that many votes when right-wing Virginians rallied behind the Conservative Party's William J. Story, a militant segregationist and member of the John Birch Society. Mr. Story obtained at least G9,:M8- votes. The election was won by Lt. Gov; Mills E. Godwin by a comfortable margin.
New York (JTA)—The American Section of the World Jewish Congress has announced that it has embarked upon an intensified campaign to secure United States ratification of the Genocide Convention and of other human rights treaties. Ratification has been bottled up in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for 16 years despite appeals by Presidents and high governmental officials. So far 68 nations, including Soviet Russia, have ratified the treaty, which is designed to outlaw any attempt to massacre an entire people. Public Meetings As part of the program to secure U.S. ratification of the Genocide Convention, the American Section of the World Jewish Congress will sponsor a series of public meetings throughout the United States. In New York City a meeting will be held on November 30, at the Astor Hotel with Dr. NahunV. Goldmann,' president of the World Jewish Congress,' as the principal speaker. The theme of the meeting will be "Never Again Auschwitz—United States Must Ratify Genocide Convention." '

To Be a Jew By Dr. Jauu-s G. llilkr To be a Jew is to be horn into one of the oldest continuous legacies on earth.. It is in (oiji about the earth, the presence of one's brothers, bound to one in deep ways. Even if I wished to repudiate them the world will not let me. Trugeuy binds me to them even when dreams do not. it is to be the result of a severe process of selection, to be the ccion of those who have breasted the billows of ages. It is to feel many thing blended ill one's heart: "people, faith, mission, martyrdom. Fear is in it for the weak and glory for the strong; confusion for the bewildered and clear vision and simple'faith for the stout of heart. It is to love one's own people and to know that this love conflicts in no way with utter loyalty to lands like America which have given us liberty and equality. .:•,., ? It is to realize that one has been chosen to bo a touchstone of the progress of the human soul, to live through some days that witness the recrudescence of the evil in men to see it wreak itself upon my people. Israel is partly a legacy, partly a social entity, most deeply and fully a religion coextensive with life, It is all these fused into unity—into one way, one vision. Israel is as diverse as life and as unitary as life; as plural as history and as consistent as God's purpose in history; as mysterious as the union and interaction of body and spirit. This is my people and niy faith which Hove and in which I take deep pride!

There are statistically measurable differences in the way American Jews and while Protestants experience their environment, a rabbi-researcher told a Board of Directors meeting of the National Council of Jewish Women. Rabbi Zachary Dershowitz, an assistant professor of the Long Island University School of Education, who is making a study of Jews and white Protestants told the National Council of Jewish Women he based his statement on the preliminary results of intensive tests and interviews with it group o£ Protestant and Jewish 10-year-old schoolboys. Identification The test1? show, lie said, that Jewish children tend to 'comprehend things a3 a whole anu to have difficulty in s e p a r a ting component parts. The Protestant children, on the contrary, tend to see the parts more easily. In addition, said Rabbi Dershowitz, Protestant c h i l d r e n tend to have a much stronger sense of self-identification and independence and of their own separateness from their environment. .'.-.'.. His study, he said, also seems to confirm some popular beliefs about " J e w i s h cultural characteristics," and -lo show that
l!y Milton Friedman In the .shadow of Tel Aviv's luxurious tourist hotels, U.S. welfare experts have found an Israeli innovation—street corner gangs of juvenile delinquents, The teenagers, mostly of North African background, have created a problem HI Kfriniis that the Israeli Government welcomes a U.S. welfare administration study. The vstudy suggested need for new concepts in dealing with delinquent juveniles in both Israel and the United States. One finding is that the United States may be able to gain insights into a vexing American dilemma. Amc-rican welfare authorities may learn more about the plague of juvenile delinqtien. cy by observing the developing pattern in the totally new society of Israel. Although dcliiii|iii'iiey is just emerging in Israel, striking similarities were noted between Tel Aviv and New York street gangs, according to Dr. Ellen Winston, U.S. Commissioner of Welfare. If a way can be found to prevent further deterioration in IV! Aviv, the United States may obtain valuable clues to help reverse the older delinquency trends in America. Research Israel sought to create an ideal human community. Love and dignity were accorded to individuals, regardless of background or status. Nevertheless, some of the worst aspects of Harlem and the East Side are emerging among teenagers in 'IVi Aviv slums. Israeli authorities are eager to analyze and confront this situation. American experts are hopeful that mutual benefits can be derived from cooperative research. The project director is Aryeh Leissner. He is an Israeli who studied social work at Columbia University. He worked for years in New York on the Lower East Side and in Harlem with Puerto Kiep.n -fitting gangs and other delinquent groups of teenagers. This equipped Mr. Leissner to compare the delinquency patterns of New York and Tel Aviv, Tlie Problem Mr. Leissner; ^und a delinquent subculture emerging in areas of Tel Aviv adjacent to better, middle class sections. The sudden onset of Israeli pros-
these persist into the second and third American generations. The tests showed that the Jewish children tend to rely less on their sensory perceptions and more upon their intellects, while the opposite was true of the Protestant children. Problems In another study quoted by Rabbi Dershowitz, w h e n students of different ages and religions were asked to list their major problems, the Jewish students showed a pattern of concern about health. This, said Rabbi Dershowitz, may account for the popular joke that "Jewish men never grow up physically—though they do intellectually. They d e p e n d first on their mothers, then, on t h e i r wives, to take care of them physically." Differences He appealed to the Council women and other Jewish readers of lils findings not to reject his study out of embarrassment or fear of being different from other Americans. "It is not to our benefit to deny ethnic and cultural differences," he said. "Rather we s h o u l d recognize find make use of them. As Americans we should attempt to orchestrate our differences rather than: to melt them down into a dull sameness."
increased the resentment and discontent among poorer youths. He found the typical Tel Aviv ganjj youth to be a .school dropout who could get further education or a job, but regards study and honest labor to be pursuits lor "suckers." The "sin;:rt |T;;ys" luiier JIIJOUL kiosks, rudelv offending passersby, plotting thefts, shouting obscenities, and even smoking hashish. Some carry switchblade knives. Most Israeli youths are wholesome kids, busy studying, or working, or serving in the army. .Hut'prosperity and the availability of decent opportunities have not prevented Tel Aviv youths, by the hundreds, from developing contempt for society. Their discontent is ironic because many were born in filthy N o r t h African ghettos, and their families now enjoy vastly improved circumstances in Israel. Israel is proud of her youth. The youth movement traditions, the exalted role assigned to boys and girls in pioneering and defense, the sabra concept—these imbued adolescents with dignity and self-confidence. Healthy attitudes still prevail among most •working class a n d kibbutz youths. Materialism But Israel in the last decade has absorbed American films. Both thr- good and bad aspects of American civilization are imitated. Young people, especially the underprivileged, are revolting against the Israeli values of .the past. Materialism is repiacma idealism. Gadna, the voluntary pre-military youth organization, would be a superb solution to the gang jwrblem. However, Gadna requires patriotism, devotion, and discipline. Such attributes do not motivate the young toughs who push their way to the head of the queque. According to the U.S., study, Israel's rapid industrialization and urbanization created a sharp contrast between the "materialistic aspirations of a rising- middle class" and the contrasting discontent of the poor. Utilitarian housing provided to some new immigrants rapidly deteriorated into slums. Tel Aviv became overcrowded and overpriced, although the Government besceched new immigrants to accept better conditions in smaller cities and rural communities. Gangs . The Tel Aviv gangs are mainly interested in the Israeli equivalent of the "easy dollar." There is talk of :','pulling jobs" and "unloading the loot." The
gangs assault boys from other neighborhoods, jostle and shove elderly men, insult women, and show contempt for the police. There have been rapes and riots. Tel Aviv teenage delinquents have adopted the skin-light black pants of their New York coufilvijwris and try to emulate the mannerisms of the "American punks." Some 'I'd Avivians now cross the street to avoid proximity to the arrogant gang boys. Shopkeepers in some .cases have been sadistically abused. Complaints are made of ethnic discrimination. It appeared to the social workers that ,such claims were made to excuse the lack of willingness to work and to justify guilt-producing conduct. Youth clubs are avoided because they do not permit vulgar conduct, smoking, and sensouous dancing. When religion was discussed, the street boys sneered at the piety of their parents. One youngster said his father prayed all clay because "it's easier than working." Another boy aroused hilarity by saying his father "lives in the synagogue; that's why he doesn't have to worry about getting the rest of us a decent place to live," It appears that Israel, which had no shortage of problems at home and on her borders, now has a new one.

By DAVID SCHWARTZ It's too bad Steve Allen is out of the race for Congress from California. Congress needs his humor. The dry Congregational Record might have perked up. It's no wonder the news stands don't carry it. . America and Israel Allen's retirement from the race is due to some legalistic red tape. I've been thinking maybe he could go to Israel and run there. They've got so many tickets and a man of Allen's humor and sympathies would be appreciated. Israel is very much like California in climate and other things, although I think Israel still has more Israelis than California. From the Israeli papers, you might think you were living in America. They carry in Hebrew Walter Xippman's columns, Art Buchwald's humoristic pieces. One Israel paper is seriating Eisenhower's Memoirs. Anyway, we hope the withdrawal of Mr. Allen from the race is temporary. He ca#be a candidate at the election following. The infusion of some theatrical blood in Congress should be good for the country. Jefferson lamented the fact that Congress is so largely constituted of lawyers. Wn should like to nominate another man of the stage for Congress, Jack Benny. Jefferson also played the violin like Benny. Truman played the piano and long ago in Israel, David played the harp. His son, Solomon, was not a musician but a literary man, author of a couple of best sellers, Song of Songs and Proverbs, all of which goes to show that politics and arts went hand in hand and worked very well in ancient Israel. With Allen and Benny in Congress, admission could be charged to the House Gallery and the additional income might make it possible for the Government to reduce taxes. The Job of Congressman should appeal to the thrifty Benny. With the franking privilege, he could save money on stamps. And 3D is just the right ago for Congress. The Congressman is then, at his best like Speaker McConnacfe.

Jewish Refugees from CuBa Land in Florida in Small Boat
Small Businesses Washington UTAl The Stale D e p a r t ni e n t is Bubtnilting a recommendation to President Johnson for resumption of largescale aid to Egypt. Pre.sidi'nt Johnson is expected lo act favorably on the Department's request which is based on an evaluation that the Nasser regime has displayed more peaceful and rt-spoiisiljle tendencies. Estimates of the proposed aid involve as much as a half-billion dollars in surplus commodities, mainly food, over a three-vear period. i p S The tj. S. Embassy in Cairo has stressed, according to official sources, that Kgypt has halted direct, air! to Congolese rebels, offered compensation for the burned U.S.I.A. library, and displayed a more responsible sittitude t o w a r d neighboring states. The State Department has urged, despite Nasser's denunciation this w e e k of the American role in Viet Nam, that immediate steps be taken to initiate a new program favoring Egypt. Tighter Terms Official sources said the decision President Johnson will make in the near future is based on the policy concept involved
Jerusalem uiAi—tsacked by solid support of Israel's electorate, Premier Levi Eshkol urged members of the Israel Workers List (Rafi) this week to return to the ranks of Mapai which they left to join former Premier David Ben-Gurion in his elecion challenge to the Premier's party and national leadership. Although the official results of the November 2 Parliamentary and municipal elections were not scheduled to be published for a few days, it was clear that Israeli voters had rebuffed BenGurion's challenge and endorsed Mr. Eshkol's leadership. The Premier declared that the election results proved that the Israeli people considered the "Lavon Affair" and its aftermath dead issues and that Een-Guriwi's splinter Rafi party should draw the appropriate conclusions about ending the divisive Mapai split by returning to the party. The results of the balloting indicated that the Israeli electorate was still divided into three groups. The labor parties—Mapai, Achdut Avodah, Mapam and

N'o Money He was asked if the United States was assisting Jordan financially in construction of the controversial dam. He replied in the n e g a t i v e. Mr. McCIoskey read the following statement as the official IT. S. position in response to the diversion plans announced by Jordan. "The devclopiiitnt of water resources of the Jordan River and its tributaries is of great importance to the countries of the area and has our support. The problem is tu ensure that withdrawals by each state respect the interests of other riparian s l a t e s . The 1335 unified plan for the Jordan Valley worked out by the late Eric Johnston following a United Nations technical survey cont a i n e d recommendations for equitable allocation of w a t e r among the riparian states and for effective international supervision. We believe the plan represents an equitable standard . for fair and rational use of the waters."

AJ Congress Protests Use of Religious Buildings for Classes $100,009 Gift for N. Y.—The American Jewish Congress has called on State Edueotinn Commissioner James E.

Gordon, chairman of the New York Metropolitan Council of the Congress, in a letter to Dr. Allen, charged that in Frceport, L.

The accolades for Sandy Koufax continue to pour in. Players and sportswriters can't seem to say enough about Sandy both as a pitcher and as a man. Says Dodger manager Walt Alston, "I haven't seen all the gre. t pitchers but I've seen all of the great ones of the last 25 years. Koufax tops them all. He's a superb workman, a fine team man. One of the reasons you have to consider his work superb is tiiiit. izke all uf our pitchers, he had little margin to work on at any time. Often he had to pitch a shutout to be sure of victory." Clark Nealon writing in the Houston Post, "And. in these rankings, the greatest thing of all about Sandy Koufax is that so much p e r s o n a ) grace is wrapped up in the same package with so much talent. This guy fits the image of a modest Hall of Fame Famer as well as it ever has been fitted. Can there be any doubt he'll be in Cooperstown?'' "I've seen the best in the
ninjnrs," says old time great Goose Goslin, "Walter Johnson. Lefty Gomez, Bob Feller. Dizzy Dean aiiil the others. And Sandy Koufax is in that class. He rates with the greatest." Sandy's career record rends as follow:;: in 11 seasons he has J.'ifl wins, 7« losses, a 2.97 ERA and 2,07!) strikeouts in 2.002 innings.
