In View of AP—UP—Wall Street Journal article on Negro-Jewish Rela-
tions, the following is quoted from a recent American Jewish Congress
newsletter written by Mr. Arthur Goldberg:

"As I pointed out in my address to our Executive Board in Atlanta,
the American Jewish Committee does not believe that manifestations of
anti-Semitism on the part of black extremists are representative of the
great body of the Negro community of the United States, any more than
it believes that manifestations of anti—Semitism by white extremists
are representative of the overwhelming majority of our white population.
The fact that there have been such manifestations - among white and
black extremists - should intensify rather than deter our efforts-to
bring justice and equality to all Americans, black and white. Our
organization, founded on the-concept that human relations is the key—
stone of a democracy, must not, whatever the provocation, relinquish
its commitment to that ideal. And while we must not minimize the dan—
gers inherent in any manifestation of anti-Semitism, we must be equally
alert to the danger in exaggerating such manifestations when they occur.

For example, we have had a number of deplorable incidents of syna—
gogue desecration in New York City during the past few weeks. These
are monstrous acts deserving of every condemnation by decent human
geings, Jewish or non-Jewish. But they do not, as a few Jewish spokes-
men have stated, compare with that night in Hitler Germany when Jewish
synagogues were burned down with the approval and under the sanction of
the German authorities. The authorities in New York are doing every~
thing within their power to find those responsible and bring them to
punishment. And as a responsible organization — responsible to the
American community and responsible to the Jewish community - we must
remind our own Jewish citizens, when they over—react, of the vast differ»
ence between government—sanctioned intolerance and the wanton prejudice
and hatred of lawbreaking individuals."

 

     

 
 

2am manage

Once again the situation in the
Middle East seems to be reaching
an explosive state. The incidents
of violence and destruction are oc—
curring with increasing frequency
and the spectre of another war looms
large. Such a possibility is most
disheartening for us all.

But as I read of the events in
that troubled part of the world,
one of the things that strikes me
is the double standard which is
being applied to the nations in-
volved. The destruction of Israeli
life brings silence. The destruc-
tion of Arab property is decried.
The attacks by Arab infiltrators
and extremists against Israeli
settlements bring silence. The
reprisals by Israeli forces bring
loud outcries. The reasons for
this disparity are not hard to
understand in the political arena.

On the other hand, the reactions
of the official church groups to
this situation are far more dis-
tressing, because they ought to be
more attuned to the moral aspects
of the conflict. Yet when the Pope
sends his sympathy to the Lebanese
and not to the Israelis, one can
wonder about the impact of Chris-
tian ethics upon his own views;
that the Council of Churches is
silent because it considers this a
political issue,begs the question.
So was Hitler. To say that they do
not wish to offend, means that
they do not have the courage to
offend some of their constituents.

Many times in our history, we
Jews have had to face the forces of
the world alone, without the sup-
port of those who were supposed to
exhibit a moral concern for their
fellowman. Let us hope that the
current situation in the Middle
East will not prove to be one more
event in this unhappy necessity for
us as Jews.

MISSION; POSSIBLE

The initial step in the fulfill—
ment of Israel's Mission as a peo~
ple is the realization that it is
a Mission which is possible. It
is not ”too hard for hee, neither
is it far off. t is not in hea—
ven...neither is it beyond the
sea...It is in thy heart, that
thou mayest do it.” (Dent. 30:11—lh).

The Mission of Israel does not
propose inconceivable chores or
improbable assignments. It does
not suggest, for example, the
conversion of the world to one
Universal Jewish Faith. We do
not pray in the climax of the
Adoration, ”On that day, all will
be Jews". Rather we pray, ”On
that day, the Lord shall be one
and His name one”. If any con—
version is to be done, it is to
be the conversion of the world to
God, not necessarily to Judaism.

The Mission of Israel is a pos—
sible one, for it entails the
transmission of Jewish values, the
sharing of Jewish ideas, the ap-
plication and execution of Jewish
affirmations in the world - af-
firmations which maintain that man
is born with Original Virtue, not
original sin; that for man to be
saved, society must be saved; that
the deed, not the creed, is pri-
mary. These are truths which are
thrilling and invigorating, and
these truths, because of their ap-
peal, make the Mission possible and
attainable.

Let us not pray for a task equal
to our power, but for a power equal
to our task, the task of fulfilling
the Mission of Israel. And may it
be said of us as Emerson described
another: "I do not hear what you
are saying because what you are
speaks so loudly."

(Father of Mrs. Arthur Lieber)

 

 

Inever condemn a man for making a mistake.
I will condemn a man who plays it cozy,

who refuses to expose himself to failure.

Such a man is worse than useless . He tends

to spread the paralysis of caution up and
down and across an organization. Such a
man has no faith in himself or in others.

And faith in people, I believe, is an im-

portant requirement in a man.

We were pleased with the turn-
out at the last meeting. It was
no doubt due to the (ahem) wonder-
ful publicity it was given.

The next meeting will be Janu-
ary 26, 5:30 P.M. This will be a
dinner meeting and there will be
entertainment provided by an
Israeli entertainer. This is a
meeting we know you will enjoy.

PRAYER

O brother man! fold to thy heart thy
brother;
Where pity dwells , the peace of God
is there:
l'o worship rightly is to love each other,
Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a
prayer.
- Whittier

Every week I get a tremendous
amount of mail, from all sorts of
sources. Some of it ends up in the
waste basket, but some of it is not
only worth reading, but sharing with
you.

Over the past few weeks I have
begun receiving information on the
many summer programs and projects
which our Union of American Hebrew
Congregation sponsors.

One of the mailings announces job
opportunities at the Joseph Eisner
Camp Institute for Living Judaism
in Great Barrington, Mass. There
are many different kinds of posi-
tions available for young people
over 18. I have been to the camp
and it is a fine one. If you have
a youngster looking for a job, I
would suggest that he investigate
this camp.

I have also received information
on the Counselor-ineTraining Pro-
gram at our Ohio valley Council
camp at Zionsville, Ind. These
positions are available for students
entering 10th, llth or 12th grades.
Many of our young people have been
to this camp and know first hand of
its fine facilities.

If you have a youngster inter-
ested in either of these summer job
opportunities, please let me know.

In addition, you will notice
that applications are now being
taken for campers at Zionsville.
Jack Miller has the forms. If you
would like to send your child to
this camp, contact him immediately.
The camp has limited space and fills

up rapidly.

There will be other information
about summer programs which should
be arriving soon — NFTY summer pro-
jects and trips, UAHC tours to
Israel (if there is no war) and
other things. If you have an idea
of what you would like to do this n
summer and I can help, let me know.
