White's 'Making of the President 1964' Gives
Account of Goldwater Saga, Outlines Political
Campaigns, Skilfully Views Civil Rights Issue
Theodore H. White calls "The
Making of the President 1964" a
"narrative history of American
politics in action." It is all of that
—and more. It is a brilliant analy-
sis of the last Presidential cam-
paign. It evaluates the contending
forces with great skill. It throws
light on the Kennedy assassina-
tion, gives a fine portrait of Presi-
dent Johnson and treats Barry
Goldwater with considerable kind-
ness.
White's account describes what
has been referred to as the John-
son-Kennedy rift. It offers in de-
tail an account of Johnson's re-
jection of the Bobby Kennedy
candidacy for the Vice Presidency.
In this Atheneum - published
book there is the history of the
Rockefeller-Nixon-Goldwater et al
contest in Republican ranks, and
considerable space is devoted to
the civil rights issue.
As a matter of fact, while
White deals with politics in re-
lation to the making of the
President, his handling of the
race issue and of the civil rights
cause is one of the most com-
mendable on record. It is dealt
with dispassionately but real-
istically, and it indicates at once
Israel Expected
to Accept Pauls
(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)
JERUSALEM —Indications that
the Israeli government will accept
West Germany's nomination of Dr-
Rolf Pauls, a former German
army officer, as Bonn's first am-
bassador to Israel were seen here
Tuesday, following discussion of
the Pauls issue at the regular,
weekly meeting of the cabinet.
Although there has been artic-
ulate opposition in some sections
of the Israeli press and in Parlia-
ment against Bonn's naming of a
former German army officer to
the envoy's post, the cabinet de-
cided to leave action on the matter
to the foreign ministry.
Parliament's foreign affairs
and security committee voted
last week to voice neither ap-
proval nor rejection regarding
the Pauls nomination. The for-
eign ministry has said that, as
far as it knew, Dr. Pauls was
not a Nazi and had even worked
against the Nazis.
With the cabinet taking a neu-
tral stand, is was believed that ac-
ceptance of Pauls is now a cer-
tainty.
The German ambassador is ex-
pected to arrive here by the end
of this month. Israel's ambassador
to Bonn, Asher Ben-Natan, former
director-general of the ministry of
defense, is expected to go to Bonn
by the middle of August.
Meanwhile, another demonstra-
tion against the Paula designation
was staged in front of the office
of Prime Minister Levi Eshkol.
The protest was conducted by
about 200 members of Hasihomer
Hatzair, a left-wing youth move-
ment.

that the commentary on the
major American issue was writ-
ten by an expert.
Then there is the story of Gold-
water, the "military Patriot," the
"Prophet," who "can only be
understood against the back-
ground of his time and place, for
his roots twine back to the pioneer
epic of American life." White de-
clares that "if, there is an authentic
pioneering family in the American
Southwest today, it is the Gold-
water family; its history is the
story of the opening of the Ameri-
can desert—and, inescapably also,
of the story of the Jews in Ameri-
can life."
White writes: "Those who
think of American Jews in
stereotypes—as the scholars and
scientists of the universities, the
self-questioning intellectuals of
New York and Hollywood, the
muscular businessmen of Chi-
cago, the prosperous middle
class of the suburbs, the dimin-
ishing toilers of the garment
industry — think of the children
and grandchildren of the great
turn - of - the - century migration
which brought two million Jews
from the ghettos of Eastern Eu-
rope to the great -cities of Amer-
ica in one generation. But these
immigrants had been preceded
50 years earlier by more lone-
some, solitary Jews who, sifting
through the South, Midwest and
Far West, struck root and
fathered such great families as
the publishing Ochs-Sulzbergers,
the merchant princes of the
Straus Gimbel and Rosenwald
clans, the mining dynasty of the
Guggenheims — whose descend-
ants only later moved back to
New York to form the aristoc-

White then proceeds to describe
the rise of the Goldwaters' first
to economic fame, beginning with
Michel Goldwasser who arrived
from Konin, Poland, then Barry's
father "Big Mike" Goldwater who
settled in Arizona. He tells how
"the Goldwaters helped build the
State of Arizona," and while he
asserts that "this is, of course,
remote history," he writes about
the 1964 Republican Presidenital
candidate:
"Goldwater's own father, Baron,
married a Protestant, as did Gold-
water himself. He is a member of
the Episcopal Church. Yet the saga
of his pioneering Jewish ancestry
adds a tingle of pride to every
speech he makes recalling Big Mike
and the past. And though he knows
neither Hebrew nor Yiddish nor
the ritual of the synagogue, his dry
Southwestern tonalities still cloak
a biblical rhythm of speech and the
endless Jewish capacity for right-
eous indignation."
White's description of the man-
ner in which "the suburban 'white
noose' tightens about an inner city
becoming more and more rapidly
Negro" is one of the very dramatic
portions of his significant study.
The personality evaluations of
Johnson and Humphrey are most
valuable.
White's new work is as powerful,
as thorough-searching as his earlier
one; it is a sure best-seller.

20 Year-Old Legacy
CINCINNATI (JTA)—A 20-year-
old legacy of $500,000 is being
divided on a 50-50 basis between

Mrs. R 0 s e Rothschild, who

Jewish philantropies in Cincinnati.
Her will stipulated only that
the money be used to honor the
memory of her brother Charles I.
Dr eifus.
James R. Clark, estate trustee,
said that the legacy will be dis-
bursed by a Rothschild-Dreifus
Fund and that Mrs. Rothschild
had chosen William J. Shroder
and Herbert Cettinger as advisors
to choose the beneficary agencies.
The Jewish Hospital and the AJC
have received income annually
from the principal of the estate.
Under the will, the principal is to
be paid to the beneficiary agen-
