COMIC JACKIE KAHANE,
local lad from across Windsor
way, was in Detroit between
nitery stops after finishing an
engagement at the King of
Clubs in Dallas, Texas . . . where
he unraveled his new-found
wealth of stories about the Lone
Star State .. . It's tough to get
the last word in with a Texan,
says Jackie, regardless of the
circumstances . . . He tells about
the group of GI's in Korea who
came upon a remarkably small
horse tethered to a post . . .
"Gosh," said one soldier, "I'll
bet that's the smallest horse in
the whole wide world." . . .
"You're crazy," contradicted a
recruit from Texas. "Where I
come from, we got horses that's
as little as two of that one!"

Shimon Peres, 35-year-old di-
rector-general of Israel's Minis-
try of Defense and a close asso-
ciate of Prime
Minister David
Ben - Gurion,
w i 11 address
the 21st an-
nual national
conference of
the United
Jewish Ap-
peal, at the
Statler Hilton Peres
Hotel, New York, December
12-14, it was announced this
week by the UJA general chair-
man, Morris W. Berinstein.
Berinstein emphasized that
the immigrant absorption crisis
in Israel will be a major con-
cern of the forthcoming UJA
Conference, which will conclude
the 1958 campaign, elect new
officers and set the objectives
for the 1959 drive.
The conference will consider
the recommendation of the UJA
Overseas Study Mission for a
Special Fund drive to be carried
out simultaneously with the
regular 1959 UJA campaign.

JACKIE RELATES the one
about a Texas zillionaire who
decided to bestow a modest gift
of $500,000 upon a university
not far from Dallas . . . One
newspaper, however, made a
slight mistake in its report of
the bequest . . . It said that the
gift was five million . . . Fortun-
ately, the zillionaire and the
owner of the paper are friends.
• • So there was not too much
anger in the voice of the zillion-
aire when he phoned . . "I
don't suppose I can make a liar
out of that sheet of yours," he
grumbled. "Since you said so,
I'll make the gift five million
this time. But confound it, don't
let this happen again!"
Following his Dallas, Texas
engagement, Jackie's next stop
was Cleveland, Ohio, where he
opened a new nitery . . . He's
fast becoming one of the most
sought-after comedians in show
business . . . a very likeable fel-
low with a smooth easy-going
delivery and a wonderful gleam
of on-stage polish.

Israel Ship to Start Cruises

NEW YORK (JTA) — The
Israeli luxury liner Jerusalem
arrived in New York in ad-
vance of her initial Caribbean
cruise, the first to be under-
taken by an Israeli-flag ship.
The 500-foot air-conditioned
vessel, built less than a year
ago, was to start a 130 day
cruise last weekend.

an example: A young man in
his twenties whom I met social-
ly and whom I regarded as a
`my country right or wrong
loyalist' of the Moscow regime
asked me whether I could ar-
range to obtain for him a
Hebrew textbook . . . He was
interested in learning the lang-
uage spoken in Israel . . •
Another young fellow wanted
a standard work on Zionism
. . . These are not isolated ex-
amples . . . There is a tre-
mendous intellectual curiosity
among the Jewish intelligent-
sia about Israel and Jewish life
everywhere."
G.B. answered our question
about the possibility of a large
Jewish emigration from the
Soviet Union to Israel as fol-
lows: "If Jews were free to go,
there would be many hundred
thousands who would take ad-
vantage of the opportunity . . .
Sure there is a little relaxation
since Stalin's death, but Jews
are afraid not so much for
their naked life but they feel

uneasy in the anti-Jewish at-
mosphere, which is so noticable
. . . A time may come when
the Soviet Government may
permit emigration . . . Should
this come about, the reason
would not be a more friendly
attitude towards Jews but the
old adage that the best method
to solve the Jewish problem
is to get rid of them . . . Let
them go , . . And there is
another reason . . . Soviet sup-
port of the Arabs will increase
and as it increases the Jews
in the Soviet Union may be-
come an irritant, a nuisance
and might very well express
their protest in some subtle
way . . . I do not suggest a
Jewish rebellion . . . Mind
you!

From the Inside:
We had a long shmoos with
G.B., a prominent African Jew-
ish leader, who spent part of
the summer in the Soviet
Union . : . G.B. (there is no
need to identify him any fur-
ther) is an intelligent observer,
whose wisdom in national and
international affairs is well
known .. . As a matter of fact
several of highly placed poli-
ticians seek out his opinions
. . . We establish his authen-
ticity because what he told us
is rather interesting and signi-
ficant.
When we queried him on
anti-Semitism in Russia he had
this to say: There is anti-
Semitism in the Soviet Union
. . . It is not just discrimin-
ation against Jews in govern-
ment circles . . . The masses,
whose prejudices had been re-
strained during the days of
Lenin, are openly anti-Jewish
