Catholic Urges Church Reforms A Roman Catholic has registered complaints against his own church. In "The Scandal of Silence," pub- lished by Random House, Ed- ward M. Keating, editor of the Catholic liberal magazine Ram- parts, urges reforms in Catholic- ism. He charges that "the Church has acted shamefully in the racial situation that has plagued this nation." He maintains: "We also have racism within the Church in the South." He regrets dominance of his church by the Irish. He maintains that "Catholic edu- cation is neither 'Catholic' nor `education'," that "the Catholic intellect is wrapped in swaddling clothes." He criticizes the Catholic press and contends: "Though we can tentatively con- cede that Catholic communities might once have needed their own newspapers (sort of cousins to local Yiddish or Chinese papers), it is really only honest to admit that they have long outlived what- ever usefulness they. might once have had. It is about time Catho- lics grew up and out of their tight little groups. Instead of huddling around the old kerosene lantern, hesitantly tracing out words of episcopal comfort, Catholics should blow the silly thing out and take a long look at themselves and American society." He objects to diocesan papers perpetuating "the tradition of Catholic separateness in America."

"The Hawks will increase the Is- raeli army's deterrent force," Prime Minister Levi Eshkol de- clared today, as he and Israel's other topmost defense chiefs in- spected the installations. The Hawks arrived recently at Haifa, brought to this country by a vessel owned by the El Yam Shipping Company, which had donated its services to the gov- ernment. On hand to watch the unloading of the missiles—which was done during the night—were Mr. Eshkol, Deputy Minister of Defense Shimon Peres, chief of staff Yitzhak Rabin, and other army and defense ministry of- ficials. From the docks, the Hawks were transported to the previously prepared -sites. It took four years from the time negotiations were first started with the U.S. government for the pur- chase of the Hawks until their arrival here, Mr. Peres noted. In the interim, Israelis were being trained in the United States for the operation of these weapons. The Hawks, he stated, would greatly strengthen Israel's anti-aircraft de- fense system. Eshkol, after observing that Is- rael's deterrent force has now been strengthened, added: "It is our aim to deter aggression, prevent attack on Israel and, at the same time, be prepared to repulse any attack. These Hawks have been integrated into our military secur- ity line as its major deterrent weapon against the enemy air force." The missiles, he said, "are not the only babies possessed by the Israeli army. While we have them now, we shall see to it that other branches of the Israeli army are also strengthened," he de- clared. Nasser Sends Personal Message to Johnson; Seeks Improved Relations WASHINGTON (JTA) — Phillips Talbot, Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, will re- turn to Washington from his Middle East mission with a personal mes- sage from Egyptian President Nas- ser to President Johnson, accord- ing to an official Egyptian report from Cairo. The Cairo report did not pro- vide details on the contents of the Nasser message. There was spe- culation that it pertained to ideas for improved American-Egyptian relations and a request for $500,- 000,000 aid in surplus food. Nasser has recently received personal messages from President Johnson, according to the Cairo report. Meanwhile, State Department spokesman Robert McCloskey said here today the United States had not as yet received a new aid re- quest from Egypt. He said that "no discussions on this subject are currently under consideration by this government." In answer to questions, Mc- Closkey also said that no final det- ermination has been made on ship- ment of $37,000,000 in aid author- ized for Egypt under previous agreements, which expire June 30. State Department sources, how- ever, indicated it was likely that the aid would be provided, al- though the reported new request for a. massive program would de- pend on President Johnson. Israel Asks Washington To Clarify Water Issue JERSALEM (JTA)—Israel has requested the American Adminis- tration in Washington to clarify reports that have quoted United States Department officials as warning Israel against the use of force to prevent the Arab plans to divert the headwaters of the Jordan River. The subject was discussed here by Golda Meir, Israel's Foreign Minister, and Ambassador Wal- worth Barbour, U.S. envoy to Is- rael, whom she had invited to the Foreign Ministry. Officials here did not hide their displeasure at attempts to link the water diversion issue with sup- ply of arms to Israel and with the Joint U.S.-Israel desalination pro- ject, which has not yet been final- ized. Recent negotiations with the United States on the supply of arms were aimed to preserve the arms balance in the Middle East, and involved no conditions, it was said. If conditions had been placed, Israel would not have entered such negotiations, officials in the office of Prime Minister Levi Eshkol indicated. They added that, in recent Israeli talks with Washington and London, Israel was given no -warning about her reaction to the Arab attempts to divert Jordan waters. . Officials here speculated whether the reports from Wash- ington emanated from author- itiative quarters, • since they are incompatible with the spirit and letter of recent talks between Israel and the United States. ment on the waters. It was as- sumed here that the Embassy's statement was issued to offset the impression created by the com- ments by Washington officials. In the course of the meeting be- tween Barbour and Mrs. Meir, the diplomats discussed a 1 s o the Washington report that the United States was ready to send arms to four Arab states as well as to Is- rael. a-0 • • IL IF YOU TURN THE T • CI • (1 f i UPSIDE DOWN YOU WON'T FIND A FINER WINE THAN .

During 1964 United States Food- for-Peace supplies shipped to Israel for distribution by the Joint Dis- tribution Committee totaled 6.305,- 000 pounds and benefitted over 31,000 needy Israelis, it was an- nounced by Moses A. Leavitt, JDC executive vice-chairman. The Joint Distribution Commit- tee, through its Malben program, has been distributing a major part of the U. S. donated food during the 15 years the program has been in operation in Israel—for school feeding programs in yeshivot and ORT vocational training schools and to Malben's old age homes, hospitals and sheltered workshops. Additional Food-for-Peace supplies have been sent for distribution by Hadassah. Referring to the admonishment attributed to Washington officials about the possible war threat in- herent in Israel's intention to Arab water diversion by force, officials here remarked that it is the Arab plans to divert the Jordan headwaters, and the Arab voicing of intentions to destroy Is- rael, that threaten the stability of the region—not the other way around. Even Ambassador Barbour himself, it was reported, displayed surprise over the reports from Washington. On Thursday night, the United States Embassy issued a state- ment, reaffirming United States support of the Eric Johnston plan as an effective way for distribut- ing the Jordan River waters, and voicing the hope that the riparian states would reach a just arrange- NURSERY SCHOOL IS NOW REGISTERING CHILDREN FOR THE SCHOOL YEAR BEGINNING SEPTEMBER, 1965 See our Facilities Meet our Staff 1.1 8-4747 Ll 8.4191 PARENTS & CHILDREN ARE INVITED TO VISIT AT AN Sunday, May 2, 1965 OPEN HOUSE From 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Two or three or five days Morning or Afternoon Sessions . 15110 WEST TEN MILE ROAD THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Licensed by the State of Michigan 8—Friday, April 23, 1965 I PENN REALTY Co.
