Men of Iron Will:
Many stories are told of Ussi-
shkin, the great pioneer of the
Jewish National Fund, but one of
the best is told by Dr. Weizmann.
Ussishkin was known as a per-
son of iron will. According to the
story which Weizmann tells of
him, when Ussishkin, as a young-
er man, was waiting at the hos-
pital for the delivery of his wife's
first child, he kept pounding with
his fist. "A boy, a boy, it's got to
be a boy," he shouted.

In Canada Last Year
NEW YORK (JTA)—Forma-
ton of the Israel-America Line,
Ltd., of Haifa, to carry frieght
between Israel and American and
Canadian East Coast ports was
announced here. An outgrowth of
the American-Israeli Line which
was set up immediately after the
establishment of the Jewish state
last May when regular freight-
ers to Palestine suspended oper-
ations in that area as a result of
the fighting, the new firm will
provide direct service to and
from the ports of Haifa and Tel
Aviv.
Raphael Recanati, operations
manager, . and Elie Schalit, traffic
manager, reported that the firm
will soon purchase its first vessel
— a Canadian Victory ship —
which will m
_ ake its ,first port of
call in New York under the flag
Of Israel within three weeks.
Two other vessels will be pur-
chased by the firm before the end
of 1949, the officials said, while
the company will also continue
to operate seven chartered ships,
which were formerly run by the
American-Israeli Line.
The Israel-America Line was
organized in Haifa following ne-
gotiations between the Zim Navi-
gation Company, which operates
an intra-Mediterranean service, a
group of Israeli financiers and
iMporters, and. the American-
fqmpanY. •

Jews who entered Canada in
1947 was 1,886.

The Draft in Israel:
There *ere, as might be ex-
pected, also a lot of stories about
the draft in Israel. According to
one of them, the authorities in
Heaven were much concerned
about development in Israel, so
they decided to send an exper-
ienced man to find out. They dis-
patched none other than Methus-
elah. He had lived on the earth
a thousand years, so he ought to
know how to get around, they re-
solved.
Finally, Methuselah came back.
"Jimmy, he exclaimed, I got away
just in time. If I had stayed an-
other day, they would have called
up my age group."

NEW YORK, (JTA)—Declar-
ing that "the present flare-up of
interest in Jewish life is bound to
die down when Israel is no longer
front-page news," Dr. Mordecai
M. Kaplan, founder of the Re-
constructionist movement, pro-
posed the formation of an over-all
Jewish community in the United
States, based on regional and
zonal communities uniting the
functions of religion, Jewish edu-
cation and recreation on the local
level "as the first step toward an
organic Jewish community."
Addressing the conference of
the Jewish Reconstructionist
Foundation, Dr. Kaplan pointed
out that an urgent need exists in
this country for an "organic Jew-
ish community" based on religi-
ous culture as the link between
the state of Israel and the Jews
of America and, also, to afford
the best means of self-expression
for American Jews.
