Bearing a stack of several hundred beautifully descrip-
tive photographs of life in Israel, Detroit attorney and noted
amateur photographer Isadore Arnold Berger has returned
from a five week visit to the Jewish state highly enthused
over the prospects for an ideal way of life which he sees
emerging in that country.

"In the rest of the world,
people are reconciled to their
current. way of life, with per-
haps a glimpse of gradual im-
provement," Berger declared,
"but in Israel, despite current
shortcomings, they are con-
tinually making plans for a
beautiful future."
Berger toured Israel as an in-
dividual, but h a d access to
points not often open to visitors
by virtue of his association with
the National Lawyers' Guild, for
whom he also acted as observer
on the legal aspects of the for-
mation of the new nation. He
conferred with many high gov-
ernment officers, as well as
photographing them.
He described Israel today as
"a mass of confusion," but re-
turned to this country con-
vinced that t h e cooperative
spirit of the majority of the Is-
raelis. combined with their in-
tense desire to better their lives,
will in time, assure a successful
state and "a way of life that will
give the people security, regard-
less of the size of the state."
After living, briefly, in some of
the cooperative Kibbutzim, Ber-
ger described the pioneer life
of the newer settlements as
"dramatic, but unromantic." He
contrasted the rough, but mod-
ern existence of the colonies
with that of students in the
yeshivoth of Jerusalem which
he visited ,and photographed.
A further contrast was found
by the Detroit lawyer between the
cooperative Kibbutzim and the
cities. In the latter, he found
the same kind of existence as in
American cities—constant rush .
and competition. Despite this
existing diversity, Berger be
tleves that, eventually, the state
must be either all socialistic or
tal capitalistic. He sees no basis
for a permanent compromse.
Long interested in cooperative
jiving, Berger was enthusiastic
about the spirit of the Kibbut-
aim he visited, mentioning par-
ticularly the way it affects the
'children. Despite the fact that
the children are housed sepa-
rately from their parents, he be-
kieves that a closer bond exists
}there between parents and chil-
klren than in the way of life
ommon to this country. He
;pointed out, however, that this

NEW YORK, (JTA)—Rear Ad-
miral Solomon S. Isquith, U.S.N.
(Ret.), was elected president of
the American Zebulun, an or-
ganization aiding in the develop-
ment of the seafaring industry
in Israel.
Admiral Asquith, winner of
the Navy Cross, awarded to him
for bravery under fire as com-
manding officer of the USS
Utah during the Japanese at-
tack on Pearl Harbor, accepted
the post as president of the
American Zebulun because of
his "interest in helping in the
revival of maritime activities,
and maritime schools in Israel,"
the announcement added.
"American Zebulun," Admiral
Asquith stated, "will give both
financial and moral support to
the parent body—the Zebulun
Seafaring Society in Israel.
Many distinguished Americans,
leaders in the Zionist movement,
have joined American Zebulun
to help in establishing maritime
schools and to promote the in-
dustry in Israel which will pro-
vide tens of thousands of im-
migrants with jobs so sorely
needed for a stable /economy of
the Jewish state."
