It was estimated that non-public school pupils in New York City wero to have received about $1,250,000 worth of books this year' under the Ferrall-Mangano Act. Aid <o Children The ruling on the law was made by State Supreme Court Justice T. Paul Kane, who held that the law violated both the New York State and federal constitutional provisions on separation of church and state. He held that "pupils are part of tho school" and that aid to pupils was the same as aid to schools. Both federal and state programs of such aid were based on tho premise that since the aid was directed to children, and not to the institutions they attended, the program did not violate tha constitutional ban on aid to religion.

The Yemenite Jews, who have grouped themselves' into a "Parents Association.'' declared at a public meeting that they had "documentary and other evidence" to prove that at least 215 children were taken from Yemenite parents "without their knowledge and against their will." They claimed that the children were placed in institutions or adopted by some families. The Ministry of Social Welfare denied any knowledge of such an affair. The Yemenites charged that the children, mainly newborn infants, were taken from-their parents on the pretense'.they • were ill and sent to hospitals or nurseries.

Mr. Abrain* snicl. "is that answers to -questions in the Decennial Census are mandatory under the law. To co:npel a person to profess his religious affiliation or lade of nffiiiaiion is to deprive him of relif'iou.s lrc<*dom. in direct violation ol the First Amendment. The subject, has never been included in a Decennial Census, and we earnestly hope that the Federal Government will not disturb this tradition." Another Way Mr. Abram recognized, however, the "widespread interest" in data on the religious cornposition of U.S. population, adding that such information has "considerable sociological, cultural and practical uses."

Jewish organizations engaged in the fight against anti-Semitism are beginning to re-evaluate their attitude toward Rockwell, leader of the American Nazi Party. Until now they gave him the so-called "silent treatment" by registering his anti-Jewish abuses but completely ignoring them publicly. They watched his activities and considered him a mere rabblerouser who barks but cannot bite . . . It was known that he has no followers, except the few crackpots whom he sends to public places to appear in Nazi uniforms and to act as nuisances in order to attract publicity. As time marched on, newspapers throughout the country became wise to Rockwell's publim e tii.nit-'iiii; of a :-oci5l Oiuer the grade schools, "You've got city tricks and realized that, is an important step in a na- to tell the truth."

His appearance in Chicago with Nazi banners before a crowd of more than 1,000 white people objecting to Negroes marching in their neighbor hood, and his wild incitement a g a i n s t Jews in that speech, gave Jewish leaders food for new thoughts. It bcconics clear now that Rockwell intends to catch fish in dirty Maters by trying to cash in on nnti-N'egro feeling among some sections of the while population. His line now is that "it is the Jews who have been financing the ISfegro movement for equal rights" und he thus blasts the Negroes and the Jews in the same breath. Judging from the dollar-bills that flew into the hats of Rockwell's "assistants" in Nazi uniform, when they were making their collections in th crowd during Rockwell's speech, the danger exists that ninny white Christians, although they arc no anti-Semites, may in their mere hatred for the Negroes fall under Rockwell's propaganda spell which is as poisonous against Jews as it is against Negroes. Instead of a nuisance, Rockwell may thus become one of the most dangerous agitators, inciting to riots and benefiting both in cash and in strength. The question now is how to check Rockwell's in. ilimiiitory public appearances .and his open incitement to riots and disturbances in an atmosphere of growing restlessness.

The spectacle of a blind, crippled o" aged person being hauled off .screaming and resisting invariably brings public expression of pity and sympathy. Good business The truth is that there is a very high degree of tolerance of beggars here. 1 have watched them as they ply their trade on a busy corner, and it seems that ns many as live percent, of Israeli passer.sby stop to drop a coin in the hand or tin cup. This is a "sales average" which any retail establishment would bo delighted to have. Furthermore, along the main shopping streets almost every storekeeper maintains a supply of small coins outside his cash register, ready to meet the demand of the itinerant mendicant who plods hia way from doorway to doorway ns if on an established route.

Without beggars where would: the average humble citizen bo able to earn his mitzvot DO easily? My observation is that this is particularly true of Israelis who come from Sephardi or Oriental background. Often I have seen a Sephardi wonian, herself poorly dressed, and laden down with bundles, -pausq to fumble with her handbag and with difficulty extricate a coin or two to drop in an outstretched palm. Then, ou heif way she goes, with a feeling of inner calm and the knowledge that, hard up as she may be, she lias helped someone who is worse off. This is an atttitudo which is absent from our hard, cold and efficient system of Western civilization and scftlo of human values, Profitable Profession It is also true of course that many of the beggars do quito Well at their "trade." Some of them are hardened professionals who buy and sell their fixed stations, with prices determined by the income norm. An unpublished study on fund-raising in Israel, conducted several years ago, had some enlightening fig. ures on begging. Tho report made tlit- startling esiimato

that the aggregate amount given as handouts to beggars in Israel is greater than the contributions raised locally by any single welfare agency. How was the beggars' income estimated? Very simply: experienced social workers frequently engage in negotiations with the beggars to get them off tho streets. When the beggar prefers to take his chances with tho public rather than accept a fixed monthly sum, it Is obvious that the "take" is greater on tho outside. The totals are quite respectable, and the estimates run well into wage schedules. To'be sure, many of the beggars are mentally ill people, who cannot fit into the framework of a placid life. Some of the elderly beggars find n satisfaction in their being in tho midst of urban hustle and'bustlo which is even more important to them than the actual income. The welfare grants provided by the authorities are certainly fur from ample, but no one in Is. rael need starve and no one 'is compelled to beg for lack of a crust of bread.

Oof Mem Gayn Tsu College? ACTION magazine, published by the U.S. Junior Chamber of Commerce, reports on a survey taken in several leading colleges to determine the trend of political and economic thinking among the nation's youth who are being exposed to higher education. The results—compared with widely publicized surveys taken earlier among high school students—would indicate that attendance at college doesn't add very much to an understanding of the system under which we live and enjoy the blessings of freedom or of the free economy which has produced sc much abundance that virtually everyone who wants it can get a college education. For example, on basic questions of individual freedom: 84 per cent think that patriotism is not vital nor does it play an important part in our lives, 71 per cent do not believe an accused person has the right to face his accuser. 41 per cent do not believe in freedom of the press. 40 per cent would deny certain groups the right to assemble peacefully. 34 per cent believe that certain persons should be denied the right of free speech. In the area of economies: C2 per cent think the Government has the responsibility to provide jobs. 62 per cent believe a worker should not produce all he can. 01 per cent do not think the profit motive is necessary to the survival of free enterprise. 50 per cent voted for close government regulation of all business. 53 per cent believe in government ownership of banks, railroads and steel companies.

Every once in a while I run into a very personable fellow in Omaha who also agrees that those "right wingers and Nazis" certainly do pose a threat to our democratic way of life. And he's got a solution to the problem— "just blast 'em . . . I'd like to give them creeps a karate chop —-man, just like this ("swish" the edge of his right hand smacks into his left palm). "What do you ssy, huh?" I say that the people described above, and those individuals who agree with them, are misguided, dangerously so, despite their best Intentions. For they would, in the name of protecting our rights and freedom from extremists, adopt the same extreme methods aa those antidemocratic f o r c e s who are sworn to destroy our way of life. There is no reason for us to feel secure because we have "wir own" force of heavy-handed, empty-headed, c o u n t e r -

We must seek and implement imaginative methods to counter the appeals to fear and frustration, which are the main weapons in the arsenal of the extremist. But surely, it would be dangerous loiiy to tbink that we can add to the security of our freedoms by diligent practice of karate chops!

On August 2! the State of Israel issued five stamps in the Festival series, according to word from the Israel Philatelic Agency in New York. The Festival Series will appear in time for the High Holidays, beginning with the Jewish New Year 5727 on September 15. Each of the five decorative stamps shows a different object used in the Home or Temple during religious services. The 12 agorot stamp features a Spice Box which is filled with various spices that give off a pleasant fragrance. It is used to signify the end of the Sabbath and beginning of the new week. On the 15 agorot stamp are two Candle Sticks and on the 35 agorot is a Kiddish Cup or ceremonial cup, The 40 agorot stamp pictures a Torah Pointer used when readIng from the Torah, and the 80 agorot pictures a Hanging Lamp which contains the eternal light.
