The Ben Uri Art Gallery Opened; Unique London Jewish Art Center By DORA FRAENKEL After almost 50 years of a "wandering Jew's" existence London's Ben Uri Art Gallery has, at last, found a permanent home in Dean Street, Soho, in the heart of London, between Piccadilly and Oxford Circus. The official opening was a brilliant occasion marked by the presence of a host of per- sonalities from the world of art. music and literature; many Jewish communal leaders, mem- bers of Parliament and well- known journalists. The inaugural exhibition of paintings and sculpture dis- played against the specially U. S. Company Offers to Sell Generator for Desalting Use in Israel HAIFA, (JTA)—The Westing- house Electric Corp., of the United States, has offered to sell to Israel a 125,000-kilowatt gen- erating unit, with attachments for desalination of sea water, ac- cording to an announcement here by Yaacov Peled, director of the Israeli Electric Corp. Peled returned from the U. S., where he had ordered $12 mil- lion in equipment for Haifa's new power station from the Gen- eral Electric Co. He said that the combination power and de- salination units offered by West- inghouse would be placed in the new power station at Ashdod, if that deal materializes. * * * Israeli Has New Method for Cheap Desalination TEL AVIV, (JTA) — An Is- raeli chemical engineer dis- played to newsmen a system for desalination of sea water which, he said, would produce fresh water at a cost of one-third the expenditure of any other pro- cess thus far attempted. The demonstration of the new method was staged by the in- ventor, Israeli-born Ariel Osdor, at his laboratory at Petach Tik- vah. His method involves use of a pressure system in which, at a critical point, the salts from the sea water are separated dry. Re- search on the process, Osdor said, has been financed by Rob- ert Sherwood, a Canadian now living in Switzerland. He said he expected to have a pilot plant using his desalination process ready for operation in the next few months. A word spoken at the proper time, how good it is!—Proverbs 15.

LOOKING BACK ON COL- UMNS OF YESTERYEARS OCT 10, 1952 . . . FAVORITE STORIES . . . by Eddie Young . . . about the two Jewish refu- gees who passed the home of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. . . . "If I had that man's millions," sighed one of them, "I'd be richer than he is" . . . "That doesn't make sense," the other reminded him. "If you had Mr. Rockefeller's millions, you'd be Jewish Correspondent just as rich as he is—not rich- er." . . . "You're wrong," the Expelled From Libya first assured him.

In- deed, the great majority of the artists on show have already won public recognition, some as leaders of the Young Con- temporaries. Their styles range from the abstract to figurative and symbolic, and some resist classification. It is significant that about half of the artists are ex-refu- gees from Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia or Hungary, and their east or mid-European, spiritual roots are often dis- cernible in their works. Josef Herman, from Poland, has been hailed as the Welsh miners' artist, and his brood- ing work exudes an earthiness and feeling of kinship with those who labour underground and in the fields. The sculpture of Max Sokol (Berlin) evokes a similar hu- manistic involvement, and some of his best work, though in- spired by the holocaust, is nev- ertheless imbued with a belief in Jewish survival. He has pro- duced some very fine busts of leading Jewish figures. The Ben Uri is unique in that there is no other non-profit making, Jewish Art Society in existence, but the Jewish people who, by tradition, so generously support such a wide variety of causes, have not yet come to realize the vital importance of stimulating the creative talent in our midst. Too often, it is left to the non-Jew to encourage the promise and potentiality of our fellow-Jews before we our- selves give them our belated recognition. 4111111M-.110•1100 ■0■1■ 0011 ■ 11■ 13 .11•1,1.11111• NOW SERVING Bountiful Brunch Buffet Every Sunday Morning-10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Adults $2.35—Children $1.65 Also Special Sunday Dinner $265 - - - - from 3 p.m. - Our Famous Northwood Inn Relish Tray (Served With All Dinners) CHOICE OF: SOUP DU JOUR, ICED TOMATO JUICE, FROSTED FRESH FRUIT JUICE.
