JOURNAL REPORTS: KOSHER PESACH FOOD BUSINESS SKYROCKETING WASHINGTON (JTA) Two Congressmen took the House floor this week to voice support for an amendment or special wording in the report of the Foreign Affairs Committee to restore Israel to the list of nations to receive direct United States grant assistance in the foreign aid program now be¬ fore Congress. larael waa dropped from the Hat of nations scheduled to re¬ ceive grants-in-aid under the 1960 Mutual Assistance program on the grounds that'the country had made so much economic progress the aid was no longer required. BEP. CHESTER BOWLEf3, Connecticut Democrat and for¬ mer U.S. Ambassador to India, aaid that "the apparent cutback in aid to Israel under the Mutual Security program is disturbing to many of us." He added that "I know of no nation that more LEHMAN SUGGESTS ISRAEL 6EFRIEN0 ASIATICS, AFRICANS TEL AVIV (JTA)—One of the greatest servicea Israel could ren¬ der to the free world is to counter tho "spurious Western doctrine of white supremacy," by befriending the emerging nations of Asia and Africa, former U.S. Sen. Herbert H. Lehman said this week at a dinner given in his honor by the Israeli-American Friendship So¬ ciety. Israei could perform a vast service to the world, Mr. Lehman declared, by befriending the new Afro-Asian nations "not only in the name of Israel, but in the niime of democracy and freedom." Israel's appeal to the new na¬ tions, Mr. Lehman went on, "muy be due to the fact thut Israel is a country whose people understand the wounds that result from the cult of racial superiority and from the priictices of racial dis¬ crimination." Referring to Israel's progress and stability in the Middle East region, Mr. Lehman atated that it is only a year, "or leaa," since some of the Western governments came to a full awareness of Is¬ rael's Importance as a factor of order, stability and freedom in the area. The Negev Research Institute at Beersheba dedicated the new Herbert Lehman I.,aborator*y Building which Mr. Lehman, as guest of honor, called "an impor¬ tant human work." The labora¬ tory, he aaid, will be devoted to making underdeveloped areas habitable as againat the "unfor¬ tunately necessary research work going on In so many other labora¬ tories in the world Ui find even more efficient waya of destroying mankind In war." iBiaiSlSlSlSlHlSiSlSlSiaBlSiaiSiSiSlSlSlElSlS STATEMENTS IN MAIL We are In Uie process of mailing statenieut« covering both current and past-due sub¬ scriptions.

A half-dozen spf:clalista in such Jewiah staples as gefilte fish, borscht and matzah "gross some $20 million a year," the buslnesa daily reported, , lidding that thia was "only a small part of the market. Thousands of iiatlonal- brahtl food and soap products are heing turned out under the strict Hiipi'i'visiori of rabbis, in order to qualify for tlie trade of thoae of the live iiiillion American .lews who ob.scrve SDllii' or all of the Hebrew dietary practices." 'I'he Wall .St. Journal reported that the Union of Orthodox Jew¬ ish Congregations of America was providing rabbinical certification for "more than 1000 nationally and regionally distributed grocery items," made by 22,^ companies. The report noted that "since Juda- i.siii in the United Statea has no authoritative hierarchy, a great many cunners and packers, bakers and roasters make private ar¬ rangements with individual rab¬ bis." The buslnesa dally noted that "the leading apeciaiiats in kosher foods -all ba.scd in the New York area- for the moat part have ex¬ perienced striking sales growths since World War II. They include B. Manischewitz Co., I. Rokeach & Sons, Inc.; Mothers Food Prod¬ ucts, Inc., a division of Vita Food Products, Inc.; Horowitz Brothers & Margareten; Aron Strelt, Ine. ami A. Cioodman & Sons, Ine." Asking "What's hehind the growing demand for kosher foods?" The Wall St. Journal cited "the general regeneration of religious observance" and credited this "partly to pride in the birth of Israel." The daily also noted the grow¬ ing Interest of the general shopper in kosher food, commenting that "advertising and supermarket diaplays are making Gentiiea well aware of kosher foods, other than corned beef and pastrami, and not without purpose." The dally quoted Benjamin C. Weeler, Rokeach's preaident, as saying, "We want kosher foods to be aa universally accepted as chop suey." clearly fits the standards . . . for the allocation of economic a.ssis- tance. Israel is a symbol of what a free people can achieve." Rep. Bowles, a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, aald "I am confident that thia quea¬ tlon will be fully explored In the Foreign Affairs Committee and consideration given to special lan¬ guage in the committee report designed to correct this situation." Rep. Emilio Q. Daddarlo, Con¬ necticut Democrat, told the Houae: "I understand the inten¬ tion this year is to withdraw from Israel the direct aid provisions of the program . . . and to confine assistance to the development loan fund . . . which is very much restricted In amount." IREP. DADDARIO suggested that Israel be retained in the direct aid program. In his view, a program which had "achieved a ma-rked drgree of success should be c;ontiniied to the point of cer¬ tainty." He asked whether "in an area as volatile aa that in which Israel finds itself, should we not be certiUn that we have reached a successful conclusion before withdrawing from the challenge which faces us?" Rep. Bowles was asked by Mr. Daddai-io if he agreed "that an amendment should be Included to provide tliat larael be not with¬ drawn trom participation in this particular area, but that we should inplude it, taking into con¬ sideration all of the problems In that area which call for direct aid as part of the Musual Security program." Rep. Bowles expressed agreement. Discussing the criteria for aid, Mr. Daddarlo said Israel waa qualified in that the Jewish State had displayed willingness to make sacrifices "on ita own behalf."

(JTA) - The Beth Joseph Synagogue an¬ nounced a ban thia week on 12-13 year-old dating at its social affairs and urged parents to resist the "trend" toward such dating among Jewish children in that age bracket. The ban was announced by Rabbi Goldberger and Educational Director Alex Kamlnetsky, who .said that synagogue social func¬ tions for such children will be strictly group type activities. Rabbi Goldberger .said that dat¬ ing at such ages "is an experience which our children don't need. They are not ready mentally or emotionally for thia phaae of their development." He added that parenta "would do well to reaiat this trend by realizing that they are acting in the best interests of their children through keeping this situation in firm control." He told the parents it waa their "sacred responsibility to raise standards and establish proper Ideals in many areas of conduct for your youngsters." Toronto Group Raps Shechitah OTTAWA (JTA) —The House Committee on Agriculture, which is conducting hearings on humane slaughter, waa told thla week that preparation of animals for Shechi¬ tah, the Jewiah method of slaugh¬ tering, was barbarous, disgrace¬ ful and prompted by consideration of dollars and cents. The attack on Shechitah, the most violent antl-Jewlsh expres¬ sion before a public body in Can¬ ada in years^ was made by the Humane Society of Toronto in a statement read to the committee. The statement asserted that "Canadians will not tolerate cruel¬ ty by a section of its population, even on pseudo-religious grounds." It added that the organization would urge, "with all the emphasis at our command," that "humane treatment" prior to alaughter be made mandatory by law. The organization's statement evoked a sharp rebuke from Leon Crestohl, only Jevyish member of the House committee. He termed the society's brief "a most mon¬ strous piece of effrontery and an insult to this committee's intelli¬ gence." WINS 1»6» AWARD MANC^HEISTER, Conn. (JTA) Saul M. Silverstein, president of the Rogers Corp., and honorary life president of Tempie Beth Sholem, haa been named winner of the 1959 McAuliffe Award for advancing cooperation between labor and management. The award was eatabiished in 1949 in memory of the late Bishop McAuliffe of Hartford. UJF CAMPAIGN HITS FINAL STRETCH; TARGET DATE SET FOR FIRST TIME Abe I. Yenkin, General Cam¬ paign chairman, reports that all major divisions of the United Jew¬ iah Fund Campaign are now en¬ tering the "C:nean-up" or "Final Stretch" phase of the campaign. The results on the pledges al¬ ready brought in show the dona¬ tions to be exceeding the 1968 donationa substantially. The con¬ tributors are respondillyi gener¬ ously. The big Job ahead is to get the remaining prospects covered. Mr. Yenkin expressed optimism on what the final results will be but at the same time he indi¬ cated a deep concern aiwut the tendency on the part of those in the campaign who have not seen their prospects or who have seen only a few of their prospects. He pointed out that the final success of the campaign will depend largely upon how aoon theae proa- pects are aeen and how well they are solicited. Mr. Yenkin announced that for the first time in Columbua cam¬ paign hlatory a Campaign Target Date has been set—Wedneaday, May 13. At that time the entire community, contributors, workera and IcHders uf all major divisiona men, women, and youth—will mei't tu report to the community their campaign results. It is hoped that the United Jew¬ ish Fund will be able tu announce what will probably be the final results of tile campaign. Every effort is being put forth by all divialons to report totala which will cxcceil by far the 1958 reaults. To muke this event an attractive antl gulu uciusiun a program com- niittei', co-chaired by 1. W. Garek and Mr.','. I>avid Gerstenfeld, has been set. A nationally prominent speaker will be brought to Colum¬ bus, special entertainment will be provided, refreshments wiil be served. There will be no chajge and there will be no solicitation of funds. Serving un the committee are Mr. Yenkin, Mrs. B. W. Abramaon, Mrs. Aaron Zacks, Herman Katz, Charles Goldsmith, Arnold Zacks, Mel Schottenstein, Harold Schot¬ tenatein, Mrs. Howard Schoen¬ baum, Mrs. Jack Wolman, Louis Levin, Mrs. Harry Schwartz, Tom Kaplln Jr., und Gus Bowman Jr. 15TH WARSAW GHETTO ANNIVERSARY IS OBSERVED IN NEW YORK GITY The sixteenth anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto was observed by the Committee to Commemor¬ ate the Waraaw Ghetto Uprialng at a meeting held in Manhattan Center, New York City. Dr., Marian Dobroaielski, Counselor of the Polish Embassy in Washing¬ ton, was among the speakers. In paying tribute to the heroea of the Ghetto, Dr. Dobroaielski said: "The martyrdom and death of Nazi victims should constitute a warning to all mankind of the danger which lies in militarism, or any reactionary policy that is based on prejudice, intolerance, violence and hatred. "This should Inspire eaeh of us to atrive unceasingly for a future In which there is no place for hatred, in which friendahip and peace shall reign among nations, in which man can realize to the fullest the ideals of dignity, equal¬ ity and tiiutual rcspc'ct. These are the idiuls fur which the Ghetto flghti'rs fought and fell and it is our sucred duty to assure for posterity tiiat they have not died in vain" In Warsaw u mtunorial meeting was held with other observances acheduled in the cities of Lodz, Wroclaw, S-,! c z e c i n , Katowice, Wulbr'/.ych, ijcgnicu, and Dzier- zoniow. The uprising which the meet¬ ings iiii'iiiuriulized began on April 19, llH'.l after tlircc years of suf¬ fering tiiiring whichan estimated 450,0(X) uf half u million inhabi¬ tants uf the Nuzi-establlshed Glielto were systematically de- struyi'd.
