Translation of Hebrew Column
Published by Brit Ivrit Olamit.
On the road ahead of our car a
tractor was travelling, trailing be-
hind it a wagon of girls and boys
who were singing at the top of
their voices. We drove after them
and entered the agricultural school
in Nahlat Yehuda. We visited with
the headmaster, the classes where
boys and girls were sitting and
studying with great earnestness;
they were learning what to do so
that the soil should give a bigger
yield. Around the instructor stood
the boys: a Yemenite, two from
Morocco, two from Poland and one
born in Israel. They were holding
hoes and rakes and they were
receiving the final instructions be-
fore work. We asked the head-
master to whom the institution be-
longed. And his answer was: "This
is one of the institutions main,
tained by WIZO."
In Jerusalem I again encountered
the WIZO emblem on a fine large
building. Perhaps this was also an
agricultural school? No! It was a
baby home. A white-cloaked nurse
stood holding a baby and smiled.
In answer to my question she told
me that she had been looking after
babies for three years. She had
learned the profession In a Wizo
nursing school attached to the baby
home. WIZO baby homes and kin-
dergartens were set up to free the
mothers who work outside their
homes from the care of their child-
ren during their work.

headed by ' Prof. Yigal Yadin,
was reported to have made ad-
ditional important finds. These
included wooden, copper,
leather and bronze utensils and
implements, as well as sarcop-
hagi.
The importance of these new
finds was that they confirmed
that the desert caves were not
only temporary shelter for the
Judean fighters against the
Romans but also • permanent
residences for human beings
from periods thousands of
years before.
The new finds were reported
to show that the caves were in-
habited during at l hree
periods. These

ond Temple period before the
Roman invasion.
When the first items in the
find were discovered last week,
it was believed that they were
part of a booty captured fro
Roman legions by the forces

The Jewish settlement of Suri-

Zionists-Revisionists
Hit Herzl Institute for
Welcome to Brandt

An invitation to Berlin Mayor
Willy Brandt to speak at the
Herzl Institute in New. York, was
rapped by Morris Brafman, pres
dent of the United Zionists-R
visionists of America. -
In a letter to Dr. E. Newman
chairman of the Institute, Br
man stated:
"Regardless of his persona
record, Mr. Brandt was in the
United States as a representative
of the German people, which col-
lectively approved -of and carried
out the massacre of our people
in Europe. His invitation to ad-
dress a Jewish group in a central
Jewish Institute, must be viewed
as part of a systematic campaign
to whitewash the German guilt
for the destruction of European
Jewry, by pinning the guilt on a
few leading Nazi fanatics."

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — A
budget for the coming year of
19,000,000 pounds ($10,600,000)
for Israel's Foreign Ministry was
approved by the Knesset.
Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel's For-
eign Minister, wound up debate
on the budget just before the
vote with a reply to her critics
who had charged that Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion had
intervened in the operations of
the Foreign Ministry. She pointed
out that every. Prime Minister
worthy of the title had played a
major Tole in shaping the coun-
try's foreign affairs. She ex-
