Marinara Sauce

It's an all purpose sauce for

turning ordinary dishes into a
feast of real Italian flavor—
for fish, stews, omelet, spa-

olive oil, onions and herbs,
slowly simmered for perfect
taste. Keep plenty on hand.

Americans in Israel Seek
Equal Voice in Planning
Emigration From U.S.

TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Dele-
gates to the annual convention
of the Association of Ameri-
cans and Canadians in Israel
approved a resolution calling
on the government and Jew-
ish Agency to give the associa-
tion an equal voice in the plan-
ning and the implementing of
all programs for emigration
from the United States and
Canada.
They called on the World
Zionist Organization to extend
to the association a special in-
vitation to attend WZO meet-
ings as an affiliate. The dele-
gates said this request was jus-
tified by the fact that non-Zion-
ists had been participants and
that such an Aliyah-oriented
group as their association
should also be involved.
Another resolution called for
widening knowledge of Ameri-
can and Canadian Jewries in
view of the "increasing gulf of
misunderstanding" between Is-
raeli and American Jewish
comunities. Mrs. Ruth Bokstein
was elected national president.
Publication of a book, "On the
Soil," on American and Cana-
dian farm settlements in Is-
rael was announced during the
convention.

My friend, Isaac Carmel, who
commutes between Israel and
the United States, has just
reached h i s 80th birthday.
He had a birthday party at
which he made a little speech.
He said he was proud of being
80. Any shnook, he said, can be
70, but to be 80 you have a
kind of quality.
Privately, Isaac told me that
on the morning of his eightieth
birthday, he
filled a glass
of schn a pps
and said to
himself loud.
"L'C hayim.
Isaac, I wish
you a happy
year."
We are con-
stantly in the
process of a
dialogue with
ourselves, but
usually it is
silent and the
chances a r e
we don't even
hear our-
selves. What
is the use of
Carmel
talking to yourself, if you don't
hear it. This fellow, Cassius
Clay, that we've been reading
about in the papers, has the
right approach. He tells him-
self out loud how good he is.
"I am the best, I am pretty, I
am the king."
Somewhere in the Mishna,
there is a discussion about the
time of reciting the morning
prayers. One may say the morn-
ing prayers, we are told, until
noon. But how is it legitimate
to recite the morning prayers
that late? The answer given
by the rabbis is that all the
children of Israel are likened
unto kings and it is the habit
of kings to sleep late.
So the prize fighting cham-
pion is in accord with the Jew-
ish tradition in telling himself
he is a king. He tells himself
nice things, and so he gains
self-confidence.
Don't say evil things to your-
self. I am afraid that's what
most of us do and we end up
not liking ourselves very much.
Speaking again about Isaac
Carmel, last year, he had a long
siege of sickness, from which he
is now happily recovered. He
told me that while recuperating,
he used to spend a lot of time
making up stories mentally.
What kind of stories? I asked.
Well, said Carmel, there was
one story about three people
who took sick. They were told
they only had six months to
live. Two of them decided to go
to Paris and live it up for the
last six months. The Jew went
to another doctor.

$74.5 Million Raised by 125 Communities
in Spring 1963 Jewish Campaigns

NEW YORK—(JTA)—A total
of $74,497,206 was raised for
local, national and overseas
needs in 1963 spring campaign
of 125 cities—exclusive of New
York City—in the United States
and Canada, according to figures
released by the Council of Jew-
ish Federations and Welfare
Funds. Final figures on 1963 fall
campaigns are being compiled
and will be released at a later
date.
The totals for the spring cam-
paign cities reflected a mixed
pattern of performance in com-
munities of all sizes, with 44
cities registering increases, a
few attaining their 1962 figures,
and the others falling short in
varying degrees. The overall
change in the 125 cities was a
drop of 4 per cent from their
196'2 results.
The report noted that more
than $48 million of the over $74
million pledged in 1963 came

from 13 cities with Jewish
populations of over 40,000.
Slightly more than $8.5 million
came from 12 cities in the 15,000
to 40,000 category; nearly $12
million came from 37 cities in
the five to 15,000 grouping, and
nearly $6 million from 63 com-
munities containing less than
5,000 Jews.

7 Convicted in Russia
as Collaborators With
Nazi 'Killer Squads'

LONDON (JTA) — Seven
Lithuanians, including a Roman
Catholic priest now living in
Brooklyn, were sentenced to
long prison terms after being
convicted by the Supreme Court
of Soviet Lithuania of collabor-
ating with German "killer
squads" that murdered Jews
during World War II, according
to a Moscow dispatch received
here.
Six of the defendants, includ-
ing the Rev. Lionginas Jan-
kus, of Brooklyn, executive di-
rector of the United Lithuanian
Relief Fund, were sentenced to
15 years' imprisonment, while
the seventh man was given a 10-
year term. Rev. Jankus had
been tried in absentia.
(The Rev. Jankus, now an
American citizen, . denied the
charges in New York, declaring
on the contrary, that he had
delivered food and clothing to
JeWs in his area rounded up
in the woods to be shot.)

REMEMBER

The memories of Passovers gone by—the search and safe of the Chometz Grandpa
poking around the kitchen, making the horseradish and the Choraches—putting on the
new suit of clothes and shoes—pockets full of hazel nuts—and almonds—anxiousiji
waiting for the Seder to start—Uncle Joe and Aunt Sadie were always late—the who

him—Grandma tired after baking and cooking all day but "My Malke" my queen, he
called her—the Kiddush and then my turn for "Ma Nishtanah" and the answer giveri
with Grandpa's voice ringing out over all—the first half of the Hagadah almost over—:
even the bitter herbs tasted so good—Passover it was always "strong"—all were com .
pelled to eat it otherwise we could not get the hard boiled egg and salt water—and
then the meal—nobody, but nobody, could cook better than Grandma—we ate—anci

wine—and the opening of the door—and the stories of how in the old country someone
frightened the whole family by appearing at that door—but best of all the songs with
which the second half of the Hagadah abound and the feeling of drowsiness—content-
ment—and the thought that tomorrow the same thing once more
