My mother used to be the same way." It takes a, great deal of education to ;,;; make a total Jew, a well-in- tegrated Jew, a happy Jew. The philosophy by which I live is the same philo- sophy which the Sam Levenson Jewish Commu- nity Center breeds in the kids. I should like to say a word about the role the Jewish Community Center played in making Sam Levenson a well-integrated Jew. As a child I lived near the 92nd St. YM-YWHA. I attended ! the Y Talmud Torah for several years. This happened after a period of having the rebbe come to our house, as was the custom in those days. At first my father was' afraid of the Y Talmud Torah because . the teacher spoke English, but his attitude changed when he found out that for the first time in my life I under- stood in English what I had been repeating verbatim in He- brew. It wasn't long after that that papa came to see me per- form in a play by Israel Zang- I am always conscious that I am a Jew. I always carry the re- sponsibility of being a Jew. I tell no dialect jokes, no stories that would be offensive to minority groups, no "little Jew" stories. There were no "little Jews" in the fight for Israel's indepen- dence, there were no "little Jews" in the Warsaw Ghetto, there were no "little Jews" at Okinawa. There are Jews in my profes- sion who have suggested that I change my name. "You can get much farther that way," they' say. True. You can get farther— farther and farther. But how far do I care to go? And if I am_ not accepted as a Jew, but as a "neutral," what have I achieved? When I became a professional humorist, the National Jewish Welfare Board's (JWB's) Jewish Center Lecture Bureau sent me to community centers all over the country. I saw the work be- ing done, and I was proud. What is most surprising to me now is the presence in the Center of papa's group, singing, dancing, enjoying -the Jewish environment, and at the other extreme the grandchildren in the nursery schools learning Jewish customs and traditions at the very outset of their lives. Papa was afraid of assimila- tion. This is not assimilation. This is integration. We have de- veloped American techniques for strengthening Jewish life. Send U. S. Teachers to Moslem Hebrew Schools NEW YORK, (JTA)—American teachers will be sent to Hebrew schools in the Middle East and North Africa, it was announced by Isaac Shalom, president of Ozar Hatorah. The organization provides a combined program of religious and secular education, conducting 76 schools with a to- tal enrollment of more than 15,- 000 boys and girls in Morocco, Tangiers, Lebanon, Syria and Iran. The Americans to be sent to the Ozar Hatorah schools, Mr. Shalom said, will help reorganize the administration of the Ozar schools through the employment of American school practices. They will also conduct courses in the English language. Mr. Shalom, who returned from Israel, where he attended the world Sephardic convention, reported progress in the activi- ties of Ozar, not only in its edu- cational work but also in the provision of food, clothing, med- ical attention and social services. Some of the work of Ozar Ha- torah is financed by the Joint Distribution. Committee. • 82—DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Friday, September 244 1954 MR. & MRS SAM GOLDSTE I N FAMILY .
