Israel's Election
Humor...Bialik on
Role of Yiddish
By BEN LEVI ZVI
A Seven Arts Feature
The Israel weekly, Panim El
Panim (Face to Face), recently
related how a candidate for office
met his Waterloo through exces-
sive generosity. The mayor of
Safed, who is running for re-elec-
tion, noticed while promenading in
one of the city's quaint streets
that an elderly woman had lost
her bag. Picking up the bag, he
tapped the woman on the shoulder,
and told her to be careful the next
time. The woman was elated, of
course. and in her elation told the
finder that it contained all the
money she had accumulated in a
lifetime and that she did not know
what would have happened to
her if the stranger had not return-
ed the treasure. When her excite-
ment subsided, she asked the find-
er how she could properly reward
him, and the mayor's political in-
stinct came at once to the fore.
"I'm running for election and I
would be grateful if you voted for
me as mayor," the mayor spoke
out. "Wonderful," retorted the
woman, "I have long wanted to
get rid of our present mayor."

Current observance of the 30th
anniversary of the death of the in-
comparable Hebrew poet, Chaim
Bialik, brings back to mind how
this architect of Hebrew revival
in this century was tortured at the
thought that the rise of Hebrew
might mean the demise of Yiddish.
Peretz Hirshbein, famed Yiddish
playwright who spent a good deal
of time with Bialik when he visit-
ed the Soviet Union, once related
that when he asked Bialik "wheth-
er he can imagine the hour when
Yiddish will be extinguished," the
Hebrew poet "turned ashen, say-
ing, 'I see in that hour the light
going out from Jewish life.' "
He who increases his wealth in-
creases his worries.—Aboth 2.
