NEW YORK, (JTA) - The
Jewish National Fund is now
engaged in the urgent task of
restoring the war-damaged
frontier regions of Israel, it was
announced by J NF president
Meyer Pesin. He received a
report from Jersualem sent by
Shimon Benshemesh, Keren
Kayemeth Lelsrael
director-general, which reveals
that “the infra-structure built in
recent years by the JNF along
the post — 1967 borders —
settlements, roads, forests and
groves — played an important
part in strengthening the
security of the rear in time of
war. So did our heavy
equipment which had been
placed at the disposal of the
army. We are now waiting for at
least part of this equipment to
be returned in order to heal the
wounds inflicted by the war
upon some of the settlements
and roads, and to resume the
operations which were under
way till the very' eve of Yom
Kippur.
Benshemesh, who stated that
the JNF Land Reclamation
Department “is all set for
repairing of roads and
settlements damaged by the
war,” also reported.
“We are going to employ
some 500, or maybe even more,
young volunteers from abroad
both in the planting of new
forests and in the rehabilitation
of the forests destroyed by
enemy action, especially in the
regions of Menashe (on the
southwest outskirts of Emek
Yezreel), Birya (near Safed) and
Kiryat Shemona, Tel-Hai and
Kefar-Giladi (along the Lebanese
frontier in the eastern part of
the Upper Galilee).”

The colorful story is made doubly so through the employment of
technicolor in many sequences aboard the night club barge. In these
sequences the screen is alive with people, literally hundreds of them,

emphasis upon
subject matter
I am all for it. But
the dread we have of anything
that might be below par in terms
of amusement and fun, this
dread of being mentally
challenged, of being depressed
by somebody else's needs; this
rejection of any experience that
isn’t—entertaining, is in itself, a
sickness. It reveals an emptiness
in the depth of us. It admits to a
failure on our part to develop
those mental and moral and
spiritual arts and disciplines
which are essential for the
strengthening of our conscience,
as well as our purpose in living.
We consume hours of our
precious lives watching. We are
the eternal spectator who is too
lazy to participate and too
nervous not to watch something.
We are discontented and on edge
and desperately anxious to find
that kind of pastime which will
be a kind of anesthetic for our
deeper longings and aspirations.
For there is no permanent
absenting oneself from the great
imperatives of living. This is
because the human being is more
than a creature of flesh and
blood. He is a child of God. For
want of any other word, we can
say that he is essentially a soul
and the soul’s roots run deep
and its sustenance comes from
stronger nournnishment than
from the sugary water of
modern amusements.

Pres. Nixon Feels U.S. In
Favorable Position in
Mid-East
WASHINGTON, (JTA) -
President Nixon indirectly-
reassured Israel on Nov. 27 of
his continuing support of its
“sovereignty” while Secretary of
State Henry A. Kissinger let it be
known that the Arab oil
embargo will probably continue
until the Arabs make some gains
against Israel. These points
emerged after the President and
Kissinger conferred at the White
House with 10 Senators and 12
Representatives consituting the
leadership of both parties in the
Congress. The meeting, which
lasted an hour and forty
minutes, was devoted almost
entirely to the Middle East, the
energy- crisis stemming from the
embargo, and Soviet-American
relations.
Senate Minority Leader Hugh
Scott (R.Pa.) told newsmen
afterwards that Nixon stressed
the U.S. commitment to the
“sovereignty of Israel” and that
Israel's “sovereignty should not
be infringed upon.” He said that
Nixon noted that the U.S. is in a
better position in the Middle
East than the Soviet Union
because the U.S. government has
some communication with the
Arab and Israeli leadership,
while the USSR does not. Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
chairman J. William Fulbright
(D.Ark.) in discussing the
meeting with newsmen said that
Kissinger had indicated that the
oil embargo is unlikely to be
withdrawn until the proposed
Geneva conference produces
progress for the Arabs. He said
the Secretary was “hopeful”
that the talks would begin in
Mid-Dec. Economic counter
measures against the Arab states
were not discussed at the
meeting, Fulbright said. He and
Scott both said there was no
confirmation of nuclear weapons
in Egyptian hands despite
authoritative reports to the
contrary in the past three weeks.

It seems that the great
modern aversion is boredom.

instruction and their home life
