THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS—Friday, January 2, 1959-8 Reshevsky Plays at Bar-Ilan Sharett Advises Against Criticisms of U. S. Jewry TEL AVIV (JTA) — Israeli appeals for increased emigra- tion of American Jews to this country should be based on posi- tive aspects, rather than on negative criticism of American Jewish life, Moshe Sharett de- clared here. The former Prime Minister and ex-Foreign Min- ister made that statement in an address to a meeting of the Mapai Party, reporting on his recent trip to the United States. Rebukes and condemnations against American Jews, he said, will not help produce greater American - Jewish immigration into Israel. If such an increase is desired, stated Sharett, then stress should be laid on the positive aspects of the possi- bilities of a richer and fuller Jewish life in Israel. American- Jewish life, he said, has not B-G Cabinet Heading for Split as Friction Mounts on Many Issues been shaken by an occasional act of the dynamiting of a syna- gogue here or there. Sharett said he found the eco- nomic standards among Ameri- can Jews generally high, and "American comforts stronger than any ideology." Only a long educational process, he held, would bring about an increase in American Jewish emigration to Israel, where proper living and housing conditions would have to be prepared.
