New Yuri;—A mbbi wlio specializes in writing on the relevance of traditional Judaism to contemporary issues has sided with Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy in her efforts to change passages in William Manchester's book, "The Death of a President." Writing in the current issue of Jewish Life magazine. Dr. Norman Lamm, professor of Jewish philosophy at Yeshiva University, said that a study of the Halachah iJewish Law) shows that the rights of privacy are held weightier than the claims of history. He noted that while Jewish law stresses the obligations of the individual to the community, it nevertheless makes clear that "when life and the integrity of the individual come into conflict with the demands of the group—whether community or nation—Judaism does not sanction the involuntary sacrifice of the individual in favor of the collectivity."'
SCOP New York, <JTA>—There have been.422 anti-Semitic incidents, of various degree of violence in the United States, between 1962 and 1966, Arnold Forster, general counsel of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, reported this week.' In the same period, he stated, there were 749 acts of violence against the civil rights movement, 119 of these )P the north. He cited those figures in a report to the 54th annual meeting of the ADL. At the ADL session, he called for enactment of Federal and State laws, requiring the registration of all firearms with local governments, as a"step toward curbing militant, extremist, rightwing organizations.
The anti-Semitic incidents, in the period of 1962-66, he reported, included synagogue and Jewish cemetery desecrations, vandalism against synagogues, arson, swastika smearings and shootings. Mr. Forester w a r n e d that paramilitary organizations of ••assassins-in-training" are plotting armed enforcement of their "violent racial and political doctrines." Among such groups he listed: "The Minutemen, American Nazi Party, National States Rights Party, Ku Klux Klan units "operating b e h i n d the front of rifle or sporting clubs," California R a n g e r s , Texas Rangers, Green Mountain Boys and the Christian Youth Corps.

JGG Offers Testing Service for Students
The testing and counseling of high school students is part of theh Jewish Community Center's expanding special services offered to students. Testing, and the interpretations of the tests, arc performed by a professional psychologist with extensive experience with teenagers. The typical testing situation involves an interview with the student and possibly the parents, a testing session in which tests are administered for general intelligence, specific aptitudes, interest and personality, followed by a later interview at which time the test scores are interpreted and the student's strengths and weaknesses are evaluated. Parents or students may arrange for the Testing Service by calling the J.C.C. Activities Department, 342-1306. A charge is mafle to cover the fee of the psychologist for this service.

Friendly Warning London (JTA) — An official campaign appears to be underway in the Moldavian Republic, of the .Soviet Union cautioning Soviet Ji'ws to think twice before seeking to leave Russia for settlement in Israel. The warning was contained in an article in SovcLskaya Moldavia, the official newspaper of the Republic. The article declared that Isrnel was a country of widespread joblessness, "merciless exploitation" of worker:; and "heartless" relations between people. The article asserted that many Soviet Jews who had left lor settlement in Israel had quickly returned to Russia or had been "driven to insanity or suicide." In a friendly manner, the article warned Russian Jews that if they insisted on such migration, they should not return to Russia, complaining they had not been told about "harsh conditions" in the "promised land." The Moldavian newspaper asserted that Israeli propaganda and tourists had ."incited" Soviet Jews to go to Israel with "exaggerated" reports of prosperity there It also published "excerpts" of letters from emigrants in Israel complaining of "the bitterness, inescapable bordom and repentence" they experienced in Israel.

In 1946, Your Dollar Was this Big When You Bought Electricity New York OTA)—The magazine of the Reconstructionist movement assailed this week Jewish comedians "who exploit their so-called Jewish material" cm television and radio "to get laughs." The publication editorial said that, in so doing, the Jewish comedians "simultaneously dishonor the Jewish religion, defame the Jewish tradition and degrade their fellow Jews in the eyes of the non-Jewish community," 'J'he editorial declined to menlion names, asserting that most American Jews "know exactly who they are—and there lies the essence of the problem. We v.re absolutely at a loss to understand how Jewish audiences
permit these comedians to foul their own nests with impunity." "The chances are that the Jews laugh the loudest and longest, being 'in' on the wisecracks but what is, after all, so funny about a movie star spending minutes on a coast to coast network making fun of Yiddish, employing it for obscene jokes or laughing at phrases from the prayerbooks?" "Since when." the editorial asked, "is 'Baruch ata . . , ! supposed to crack us up?" The editorial suggested that this was one of the occasions when "it is important to exert pressure upon these comedians to protect them and their fellow Jews from the self-hatred and •further loss of dignity caused by their disgusting patter."

MOKE BOUQUETS The Jewish Press, so thin and email in appearance, is a great contribution for us readers.
It doesn't take much time to read, yet it gives us a knowledge oi what's going on in other Je\yish communities throughout the world, This is information we could not find in any other local news media. The Jewish Press is a forum for both young and old to express stimulating ideas, and is an important tool in carrying on our Jewish identity. The credit must go to the editor for making it an interesting and important part of our lives each week. My best wishes to her for continued success. A grateful reader Mrs. I. Grossman
By Francie Brody This is the second in a series of articles by Kathy Greenberg who has recently returned from spending six months in Europe, five of them enrolled as a student in a school in Manchester, England. Kathy found the school curriculum very difficult, since the college preparatory schools in England are available to only the top students, and the schools are much ahead of the American schools. Following a two year period, stiff exams are ad-
ministered to the students to determine which students will be permitted to continue their education. As a result, students in England are more serious about their studies. Last week Kalhy told us that in most Jewish homes in England, a much more religion-conscious atmosphere p r e v a i l s than in A m e r i c a . This week Kathy will discuss the Jewish Youth organizations in England, and the attitudes of most teens towards Judaism.
THANKS Dear Mrs. Gerelick: .. On behalf of the Henry Monsky Chapter B'nai B'rith Women, 1 wish to thank you for the excellent coverage you gave our affair in the Jewish Press, January 27. Due. to this publicity and its gpace in the paper, our affair was a great success, and we do
thank you for your assistance. Mrs. Maurice K.irpcn, Fund-raising chairman
British Youth end Jewish Identity By Kathy Grecnberg The influence of the general community, family background and social pressures all contribute to the strong sense of Jewish Identity of the English young people. This however, is not reflected in the v a r i o u s youth organizations because of the beliefs of all involved 'participants, their parents, advisors etc.) that religion belongs in the home and the synagogue and not in the y o u t h clubs. Where many American organizations provide essential leadership training, the English clubs are void of this. A very small nucleus of executive members (7 to 10 people) run the organizations, and the general membership is merely entertained. Ycailv Organizations For the younger age groups (12 to 15), the clubs are affiliated with the synagogues. The major objective of these groups Is to provide some sort of activity for the in-between age child to k e e p him off- the streets. There Is little organized activity for the 1G to 18 year old teen, who is c o m p l e t e l y absorbed with demanding school studies. Organizational a c t i v i ties for young people 18 years or older are numerous and fall into four general categories. There are the synagogue affiliated g r o u p s (Conservative — Youth Association of Synagogues in Great Britain; Reform — Federation of Liberal and Progressive Youth). The second category is University oriented (Hillel, Jewish Society). Third are the national groups (B'nai B'rith, Jewish National Fund groups). These groups are purely social, and with the possible exception of community service, there are no indications of Judaism in their activities. Finally, for the o l d e r age groups, there are a few cultural study groups. High School Youth The big gap is during the high school years when the Jewish teen has very little formal con-
nection with bis Judaism. The conclusion of his r e l i g i o u s school education at age 13 or 14, followed by absence of Jewish organizations and his preoccupation with his d i f f i c u l t school curriculum all tend to isolate the English t e e n a g e r from the J e w i s h community. Yet, in bis minimum social life, the English teen e x p r e s s e s more positive Jewish identity than might be expected. Friday night is of course ruled out as a date night, and while inter-faith dating is merely frowned upon in the United States, in England, it just can't be done. Many teenagers would even think twice before going to a p a r t y or dance that was predominately non-Jewish. Once again, it is easy to see the important role the family has in molding the future adult Jewish community.
''Our city really doesn't deserve .such a bad name," the young journalist told us. "Munich was much more important to (lie Nazis." "Well,'1 I said reasonably, ''it is hard to forget Slreicher, the Party parades, the Nuremberg Laws—and, of course, the historic war crimes trial." "We are doing our best to forget," was his answer. Their .best, a p p a r e n t ly, is quite good enough. T o u r i s t pamphlet;; about the city tell much about old churches, old and new museums, new industries and workers' homes, and the rebuilding of the Old Town "so faithfully one cannot tell the difference between new and old." But you will find nothing about the Parly parade ground, or Hitler's unfinished coliseum, or the courthouse on the Fiiertlierslrasse where, in 19-1G, the Iteicli that was to last a thousand years ended, In Its thirteenth, with a series of brief tableaux upon two hamlman's stages, each thirteen steps high mid eight feet square The court-house is there still, not much changed. It is a large complex of joined structures; today the German judiciary has the use only of an end wing. The rest of the complex houses the headquarters of our military Post Exchange for all of Europe. Room fiOO In the lobby of the German wing. I stopped at an information desk manned by an elderly German. "Upstairs, Room fiOO," be said in answer to my query, "it is a Schwurgericht <jury court) now." 'Do many G e r m a n visitors ask about that room?" "Only Americans and other foreigners. For them the people next door"—he nodded in the direction of the Post Exchange offices—'have arranged for one-hour tours Tuesdays and Thursdays. Visitors are shown the courtroom, the cells downstairs, the execution chamber. Some people find it interesting." A few minutes later I stood before one of the two doors leading into Room GOO. For 10 months, behind that door, there had unfolded a story of tragedy and villainy unprecedented in history. "I commanded Auschwitz until December 1, 1943," Rudolf Franz Ferdinand Hocss had deposed, "and I estimate that at least 2,500,000 victims were executed there by gassing and burning. I used Cyclon B. It took from three to 15 minutes to kill the people. We knew when they were dead because '.he w a r n i n g stopped." Had the world really listened? Did It remember?

The corridor in which I stood was empty. The oblong of dark, paneled oak before me seemed to shut out the past as if it had never been. I'turned and walked along the deserted corridor. DeKCi'nding the broad staircase, I passed a woman on her knees polishing the wooden steps. I t h o u g h t of the Seitenslettingasso. The cleaning w o m a n looked back at me angrily as I went down! I Irad left a heelmark where the polish was still moist. Oversensitive Ji-us That night we bad dinner with our young journalist friend. Ho was intelligent, well-informed, liberal-minded — typical, I suppose, of that Young Generation we have read about as being the hope of the New Germany. We talked of many things, and finally 1 asked about the Nuremberg Jewry. "A couple of hundred left of a community of 5,000," he said. "They get along all right—and yet-" "And yet,-what?" "They seem so o v e r sensitive." Me drew a deep breath. "The other evening I was eating in this restaurant with a Jewish friend, and a couple of tables away three or four young punks who'd drunk too much beer began singing Nazi songs.
My friend got more and more excited and began insisting that the police he called. Well, we finally called them and them was a big fuss and the singers h;ul to be removed by main force." He paused. "They were ju.st drunken kids; wouldn't it have been better to ignore the whole thing? But the Jews here won't overlook anything; they run to the pol ic c, or to tho courts, at the slightest incident." "I"or how many rentuiies," I asked, "have the 3c.ua been held in-contempt for lailintf to light back against Ilieir oppressors? Now when they try—" "I know," said our f ri end, sighing. "It is :ill very complicated." He looked into his beer glass, but found no .solution to his problem there. After n whila ho lookeJ up .'it me and said candidly, "1 don't think I havo much faith in Gorman democracy." A few weeks later, Nuremberg E-'iVe l:! percent of its vote to the neo-Nazi National Democratic Party, more t h a n any other large German city. How ironic it would be, I thought, il the city which had witnessed) the final death throes of tho Third Reich should prove, in the end, to be the birthplace of the Fourth.
Reading the story about the President and the way he didn't like his painting, we frit symp a t h e t i c . We | never liked our ^rp h o t o g r a p hs / either. But, after ; I" all, we always t* say to ourselves: i v G o o d l o o k s Jjjr' aren't e v e r y thing. After all, Lyndon, A b r a • ham Lincoln isn't r e m e m b e r ed particularly for D. Schwartz his good looks. The nrtists used to always follow Einstein about asking him to sit for them and he, being a kindly man, would often oblige them. Once in a conversation with a stranger on a train, the latter asked Einstein about his occupation. "I am an artists' model," said Einstein. The artists didn't choose Einstein because of his good looks. Woodrow Wilson wrote: For beauty I am not a star There are other handsomer by far But my face I don't mind it For I am behind it The people in front get the par." But if nature is kind in not exposing us to our own looks, it is a meager kindness,- for a look in the mirror and we correct our illusions. The Scotch poet, Robert Burns, on the other hand, thought it would have been better if we could see ourselves: "0 wud some Power the giftie gie us, To see ourselves as others see us." Artists Problems The painter has many problems, A physician once complained to the German Jewish painter, Max Lieberman, about the many sittings required; He said: "I am already . satisfied with the painting as you have it. Why do you ask me to come for another sitting?" "You are a doctor," said Lieberman, 'and'the difference between the doctor and the artist is that the doctor buries his mistakes but the artist must bo more careful, for his mistakes hang on the wall." . _,', Oliver Cromwell is remembered for saying to his artist:
"Paint me with my warts!" That is the hardier spirit. I think if we only knew this of Cromwell, and knew n o t h i n g else, wo should know that he was a) great man. Cromwell knew that, in the last analysis, the warts didn't make such a difference, When we begin to think too much about our beautiful looks, it Is a sign that what is really troubling us is a lack of inner security. Illusion of Beauty We were just reading excerpts of a new book about S a r a h Bernhardt, the a c t r e s s, by Cornelia Otis Skinner. Probably more has been written about Sarah Bernhardt than any other actress in history. Was she beautiful? Miss Skiiv ner says those who knew lief say she was not so beautiful, ns she was able to create tho illusion of beauty, She was always sick but a l w a y s doing something, Her theory was thai spending energy creates energy. There was always something different with her. Now sho would be having a bear in he* home, another time she would be sleeping in a coffin, or going up In a balloon or down into a mine. She tried sculpturing, painting, almost anything that was being done. Zola called lief 'the divine Sarah." When sho curtsied to the Czar of Russia, he said, he should curtsy to her, Imagine the Czar saying this to the daughter of a Jewish hat maker. Sarah Bernhardt had something better than just good looks.

By Mickey Gerelick [education Mr. Shapiro had lots more to say, and lit* said it loud and clear, both in his address to the entire group and in private discussion with a small group following the meeting.

He is a (.'banning, warm, Iviioulc<];.',;iblc man, an articulate speaker, bul in all honesty, I must admit that I didn't "enjoy" Ills speech. Mr. Shapiro pulled no punches in his analysis of the American Jewish community. I could not refute th? truth of what he was saying; his honesty made me uncomfortable, and apparently I was not alone with my feelings, As I looked around the room, filled with many of the lender.'! of the community, I sensed the same feelings of guilt in others of having closed our eyes to the truth for too long. Jewish Identity What is the truth? According to Mr. Shapjpo there is a difference between Jewish Identification and Jewish Identity. "Most of us." he says "accept Jewish Identification—we're willing to acknowledge the label of Jew, participate in organized Jewish life, affiliate with a synagogue, and all with little or no internal commitment." "A Jewish Identity," said Mr. Shapiro, "is not only more difficult to define, but more complicated to achieve. Identity means the recognition and awareness of one's self — the process of becoming that which one seems to be." Mr. Sliapiro illustrated how there was a time when Jewish Identity was easy to achieve. When the Jew was isolated from the non-J e w i s h community, there was no question in his mind or the minds of other's of what it meant to be a Jew. His Jewisliness d o m i n a t e d every phase of his life. In n free American Society, where we have not been forced to maintain these differences, and in our anxiety to "be like" everyone else, we've lost our Jewish identity and in its place have taken to "role playing at being a Jew." "Wo have become," said Mr, Sliapiro, "like another white American Protestant denomination. Wc'vo made our Rabbis Into ministers, our synagogues Into cliurches, our religious schools places where our children can be made Jewish—but not too Jewish. Wo provide no model of Jewish Identity for our ehldrcn. We can talk to them - about what being Jewish meant to our grandfathers, but not what it means to us."

New Orleans (JTA)~Label A. Katz, former International president of B'nai B'rith, defended this week his position that Jew. ish centers should maintain a Jewish sectarian c h a r a c t e r , against criticism from Reform rabbis in this city. Mr. Katz raised the Issue Initially last month in an address in which ho declared that ho had been one of 140 members of the New Orleaas Jewish Com.nitmity Center who had protested the admission of non-Jewish families to Center membership. Mr. Katz's stand was disputed on the national level by Sanford Solcnder, executive vice-president of the National Jewish Welfare Board. Mr. Solender said in New York that participation of non-Jewish members in Jewish Center programs "does not deter or adversely affect the capacity of the Center to fulfill its Jewish purpose and program" and that "open membership is the only tenable policy for a Center. Itnhbls Protest In the newest development in the controversy, Reform rabbis liere criticized Mr. Katz In sermons and statements in their synagogue bulletins. Rabbi Leo A. Bergman, Rabbi Nathaniel Share and Rabbi Jay Rosenberg challenged Mr. Katz in sermons end bulletin statements. Rabbi Bergman criticized Mr. Katz for
Susan Gerbcr, Gregg Loss and Jimmy Roddy. The production is being handled in nearly every aspect by students under the direction of Ira Rnznick, an Omaha University Junior. He is being assisted by Barb Chudncoff, choral director; Jimmy Roddy, choreographer and Pat Bunz, makeup and costumes. Mr. Ray Williams, a Central High teacher has designed the Bets. Mr. Robert Harrison is in charge of musical direction and
taking the issue to the press. Rabbi Share also protested the development of the issue into a "public fight." Rabbi Share said that it was true that open membership "exposes our youth to contacts with non-Jews." However, he said, "Our young people are going to live in a society in which tho majority will be non-Jews." Me added that "it rests upon those who are fighting for closed membership to demonstrate.that the Center's policies and programs are less affirmatively Jewish now than they would be if membership were limited to Jews alone." Jewish Environment Replying, Mr. Katz said he agreed with Rabbi Share that "Jews meet non-Jews, as it should be, in many areas and on many levels" but that "tho supplementation and encouragement of interdenominational social activity is not the function of the Jewish Community Center." "We feel strongly," Mr. Katz added, "that proper Jewish Center programming can avail itself of an unparalleled opportunity, and offer an ' essential service to the entire Jewish community by encouraging our Jewish youth to share a social, cultural and educational experience in a totally Jewish environment," "If the Reform rabbis believe
Munich OTA)—A heartless Nazi was paid a reward for betraying Anne Frank and her family in their attic hideaway during the Nazi occupation of Holland,', it was admitted here by Wi!he]m Zoepf, on trial with Gen. Wilhelm Harster and Gertrud Slottke for the murder of Dutch Jews. Zoepf told the court that the betrayer had received "the usual oniount" of reward—once $1.40 per Jew but later increased, He admitted that every time he looked at Anne Frank's picture "it was terrible for me." Master was the officer In charge of deporting to concentration camps 04,398 Jews from Holland, including Anne Frank. Only 1,070 survived. He was commander of the Nazi security police in occupied Holland. Zoepf was his principal aide and Gcrtruu Slottke, his secretary. He testified that two groups of more than 700 Jews 18 to 35, whom lie had sent to the Mauthausen camp in 1941, had been destined for extermination. Zoepf explained that of Jews sent to Germany 48 per cent were women and 22 per cent children, because his olfice "wanted to keep families together."

CONCERNED about the exercise of their role, wanting lo do the very best by their children, many parents raise questions that are not easy to answer. Recently in a discussion, several parents spoke about some of the values they wanted to pass on to their children, and of course wanted the kind of camp that would further the process. We talked about "democracy" and "discipline" and "settinj; ol limits," These are three hip; areas, all of them important, all ol them mutually related and supporting, sometimes apparently in conflict. Part of the concern centered around the application of the "democratic" philosophy in the camp experience and the implied contradiction of "limits." Doesn't the democratic commitment r e q u i r e a relatively tree choice of activity and kmctioning? If we insist on respect for the individual as a basic value, doe:; it not follow thai he cannot be "required" at any point? 'Limits' It was a while before v/e arrived at a sufficient understanding of the nature of man and his relationship to others, which make "limits" necessary in a society, a community, a camp, a family. We had to take note of the beginning condition of man, born into a "natural" world and very much a part of it—with all the animal instincts, largely centered on self. We had to take note of the condition of our world, grown tremendously complex and populous. Both the degree of complexity of our world and the numbers of people we have to live with, are multiplying at a tremendously accelerating rate. What docs this mean to-us? AS A HERMIT, one may be center of his v/orld and do as he pleases. Only he will be affected by what he does. The moment another person shares that world, it is necessary to set up some limits that v/ill protect each from encroachment by the other. As the group grows larger, more complex, the number and nature of limits keep pace. Democracy is a sort of system of "limits upon limits." It may be said that democracy ideally gives protection to the individual from such a proliferation of limits as may impair his capacity to see himself as an unique individual and his ability to function with sufficient autonomy to support that self-image. Limits also tend to make this sometimes frighteningly com-
plex world more understandable, more tolerable. Psychologically, limits are sound, contnbuting to mental and emotional health—provided they leava room for the development of tha personality and the opportunity to see one's .self as worthy. The wise home and the wise camp set limits that protect the child and youth from himself and from his fellows, yet leave maximum opportunities for growth. Camp Limits Parents who accept this point of view may want to discuss it with the camps they are considering for their children. Do the camps .set any limits that help a child know what is acceptable, what is not?-—In. behavior, in appropriate dress, in lab!'1 manners, in cleanliness, in cart of his cabin and belongings, in respect for the property (if (ithers, in promptness, in attendance at religious services, iu personal livgicne etc.? AT THK'SAME TIME, a parent may want to make .sure the limits are not. so tight or so rigid or so arbitrary as to stillo pi rsonal growth and create an authoritarian climate. Rather they should be the reflection, in our opinion, of a climate that is permissive as possible, appropriate to the age-level, and presented as expectations and learning goals, supported in tho main by the example of consistent counselor and staff behavior. Here we are back again to the importance of philosophy and climate. They achieve the effect in the healthiest way by creating an atmosphere in which the kinds of things that ought to happen do happtMl, where inappropriate behavior is so obviously wrong that it doesn't generally happen. Living in that kind of setting and acting in appropriate ways for an extended period of time, lika n camp season, builds good habits and strong, sound values that generally stick with a youngster. I-
