Sculptor Lipchitz Gives'Entire Life's Margot LaBan Will
Product of Clay Originals to Israel 11/ed Arnold Serlin

Billy Rose announced that
Jacques Lipchitz, one of the
world's foremost sculptors, has
bequeathed 300 of the original
creations in clay by the artist's
own hands, which represents his
entire life's work, to the Jeru-
salem Museum of Art, currently
under construction on a forty-
acre hill in the Holy City.
The irrevocable codicil of the
will, which spells out this vir-
tually priceless gift, was read
by Rose to guests who attended
a small party at the artist's
house in Hasting-on-Hudson on
the eve of his 70th birthday.
The gift of the 50-year pro-
ductivity of Lipchitz, who first
exhibited in Paris in 1911, was
hailed by Andrew Ritchie, one
of America's foremost art cri-
- tics, the director of the Yale
University Art Gallery.

Dr. Schwartz Reports
on Israel Bond Parley

NEW YORK, (JTA) — "The
first ten years of the Israel
bond campaign have demon-
strated that Israel bonds are
the lever which moves Israel's
economic development for-
ward," Dr. Joseph J. Schawrtz,
vice president of the Israel
Bond Organization, stated on
his return from the ten-day
Israel Bond Leaders Confer-
ence in Israel.
"The $500,000,000 provided
during the first decade of the
Israel bond drive," Schwartz
said, "have played a decisive
role in the development of
every phase of the country's
economy. Israel bonds must
play an equally • decisive part
in the economic development
which is planned for the fu-
ture."

Jews We

By DAVID SCHWARTZ

The story of the peopling of
the American West is a great
epic. The Jews, too, had a part
in this saga. Here are some high
points:
CALIFORNIA: Many Jews
came with the gold rush. The
first San Fransisco directory of
1850 listed approximately 100
Jewish names. Washington Bart-
lett, son of a Jewish mother,
first suggested that the city be
named. San Francisco.
OREGON: Brig. Gen. Salo-
mon, hero of Gettysburg, was
one of the first territorial gov-
ernors. The city of Heppner is
named after a Jew.
WASHINGTON: The first
brick building in Seattle was
erected by a Jew, Sigmund
Schabacher.
ARIZONA: Abraham Goldwa-
ter was one of the first pioneers.
Morris Goldwater was mayor of
Prescott.
NEVADA: State in the early
days was noted for mining, not
gambling and Jews had an im-
portant part in that. Adolph

Danger Is Dismissed
at BB Youth Parley

STARLIGHT, Pa., (JTA) —
Those who forecast inevitable
assimilation of the. American-
Jewish community are "armchair
prophets of doom who just have
not gotten out and around to see
what is happening every summer
in the young American Jewish
community," a leading Conserva-
tive rabbi said here addressing
125 top teen-age regional leaders
of the Bnai Brith Youth Organi-
zation participating in the organi-
zation's 4th annual leadership
training conference.
Rabbi Myron M. Fenster, spir-
itual leader of the Jewish Center
of Jackson Heights, N. Y., and
consultant on adult Jewish edu-
cation for the United Synagogue
of America, said warnings of
assimilation of Judaism in the
United States come from those
who "simply aren't taking into
account all the facts—including
Judaism's history. No one who
spends any time at such a pro-
gram of Jewish learning and liv-
ing with our young people can
help but be enormously impress-
ed and uplifted."
