PreSident Eisenhower, in a

Nation," evaluates Newspaper
Week as follows:
"National Newspaper Week
prompts us all to renew our
awareness of the remarkable
national service rendered daily
by the newspapers of America.
"Our free press does more
than tell our people the history
of our times. It explains that
history, interprets it, and, so
doing, often actually helps to
create that history.

`Doughty Little Israel'
Praised by Stevenson
CHICAGO, (JTA) — A tribute
to "doughty little Israel" was
voiced by Adlai E. Stevenson in
his broadcast report of his five-
month world tour.
(In • Washington, Stevenson's
reference to the need for peace
between Israel and the Arab
States was taken as an indica-
tion that the Democrats in Con-
gress, following his lead, may
press for support of Israel and
measures to secure an Arab-Is-
rael peace.)
"The Middle East is largely a
power and defense vacuum, ex-
cept for doughty little Israel and
tough, strong Turkey," Steven-
son said.

Dear Boys and Girls:
We are now celebrating the
Festival of Booths—Sukkoth-
commemorating the time when
our ancestors lived in tents af-
ter they left Egypt. It is one of
our very joyous festivals which
will conclude next week with the
Festival of Simhat Torah.
I am sure all of you will share
in the happiness of the festival
when you visit Sukkahs in your
synagogues. There was a time
when every Jewish family had
its own Sukkah, but there are
