HARRIMAN, N.Y., (JTA)-
Dr. Joseph E. Johnson, a former
United States special envoy,
urged the United States this
week to undertake the lead in
arranging for settling some
Israel-Arab differences by "ac-
quiescence" rather than by a
formal treaty.
Dr. Johnson, who twice visited
the Middle East as a special
envoy of the UN Palestine Con-
ciliation Commission, made the
proposal at the opening ses-
sion of the 24th American As-
sembly on Harriman Campus
where 70 leaders in business,
education and other fields met
for four days of discussion on
the United States and the
Middle East.
He said there was some hope
of improving Jewish-Arab re-
lations because of mutual fears
of attack, and in aiding the
Arab refugees. He said there
was no possibility at the pres-
ent time of any kind of face-
to- face talks or iron-clad agree-
ments. But, he said, it should
not be beyond the limits of
"imaginative statesmanship" to
work out guarantees of present
Israel-Arab boundaries which,
though not expressed in treaty
form, would reduce present
fears and tensions. He added
that he thought the Soviets
might cooperate or at least not
block such an effort.
He told the Assembly that
while neither side would sub-
scribe formally to an agreement
acceptable to the other on the
refugees, some kind of tacit ac-
quiscence should be possible to
allow practical measures for the
refugees "without insisting that
everything be spelled out in
public documents."
He warned that this idea
would 'surely meet opposition"
from Jewish elements in the
United States and that if the
United States decided to pursue

BUENOS AIRES—During the
Jewish year 5723, a total of
4,400 Argentine Jews—approxi-
mately 1 per cent of this coun-
try's total Jewish population—
emigrated to Israel. Moshe Kit-
ron, who has spent the last year
here as a special representative
of the Jewish Agency in Jeru-
salem, had been here to or-
ganize this "little exodus." A
former Argentinian, fully fami-
liar with Latin American condi-
tions, Kitron was sent here in
1962, when anti-Semitic disturb-
ances reached a peak here.

The Bible in the Englis h-
speaking countries is considered
an outstanding literary creation.
In France, I understand, it is
generally not so regarded. If
that is true, it would seem the
Frenchmen are missing a great
literary treasure because they
had no King James. With all its
antiquarian phrasing at times,
the King James version is still
the outstanding translation of
the Bible. It will live on forever
because it savors of the - tongue
of the original.

Reading dictionaries is not a

In a letter to my good friend
David Schwartz, inimitable col-
umnist of the JTA, I complained
that the writer, as distinct from
the artist, seems fated to repeat
himself. To which David replied
that he shared my thought but
that the hopeful thing about it
was that while we repeat our-
selves, it is almost impossible
to repeat ourselves exactly. Con-
sider, he says, how many times
pretty girls have been kissed
yet the interest remains unabat-
ed despite the repetition. To
which I can only reply "Amen,"
and Amen again and again.

There is little naches in the

has a face that elicits laughter
the moment one looks at her

depth. She has recently learned
to distinguish between right and
left—a lesson that incidentally
hasn't dawned on the wise men
who would guide our destiny to
the moon—but she has not yet
mastered the idea of relativity.
And so it was when she was
facing her father that her left
hand was his right and her right
his left. Pondering the problem
and unable to find an explana-
tion she merely advised her
father that he had two wrong
hands.

The United States, he said,
would have to undertake a
"planned campaign to enlist
support of those Americans
who, while determined "that
Israel shall flourish, do not
believe that Israel's preferences
should dictate United States
policies."

Of the 4,400 Argentine Jews
who emigrated to Israel, the
vast majority are no older
than 50. A breakdown by ages
show that about 35 per cent
were 18 or younger; 35 per
cent were between 18 and 35;
and 29 per cent in the age
bracket 35-50.
About one-third of the emi-
grants said they would join a
kibbutz or a moshav in Israel,
or at least give settlement life
"a fair try." Thirty per cent
more said they would spend the
first six months in an ulpan,
combining study of Hebrew with
work. On e-fourth said they
would go straight to towns or
other urban centers.
Of the total, about 20 per
cent were professional or tech-
nical men; 15 per cent were
businessmen or industrialists; 5
per cent were skilled workers.
It was noted that, among those
between the ages of 18 and 50,
a high percentage were high
school graduates, and some were
college graduates.
Economically, K i t r on said,
most of the emigrants were in
"rather modest, often precar-
ious" position. They had confi-
dence in their ability, once hav-
ing settled in Israel, to fit into
the local economy with the help
of absorption authorities in
Israel.
The reasons that brought
about the new wave of emi-
gration, said Kitron, were:
the acute economic crisis that
has affected Argentina for the
last several years; the spiri-
tual problem of the Jewish
youth and its reaction to anti-
Semitism; the concern of par-
ents about the Jewish educa-
tion of their children; and the
attraction toward Israel gen-
erated by friends or relatives
from this c o u n try already
settled in Israel.
Tourism from this country to
Israel was seen as another fac-
tor contributing toward increas-
ed migration. Argentine Jews
who have visited Israel as tour-
ists found themselves attracted
to the country by Israel's econo-
my and by contact with friends
and relatives there and public
institutions in Israel.
Helpful, also, to migration of
Jews from this country has been
the support given aliyah by the
Jewish community of Argentina
Argentine Jews settling in
Israel, Kitron said, generally
retain a strong attachment to
and sympathy toward their
country of origin. They are in-
