This figure is revealed in the
annual report, "Jewish Communal
Services — Programs and Fi-
nances," by S. P. Goldberg, pub-
lished by the Council of Jewish
Federations and Welfare Funds.
A comparison of this $625,000,000
figure — which has been called
"Jewish Gross National Product"—
with 1953 estimates, shows that in
a single decade the income and
costs of Jewish communal services
have risen $270,000,000, or more
than 75 per cent.
Jewish federations, since 1959,
have been collecting approximately
$125- to $130,000,000 in each annual
campaign. This is approximately
one-fifth of the total value of serv-
ices rendered by agencies under
Jewish auspices in the United
States. Other direct sources of in-
come include grants from Commu-
nity Chests and United Funds,
service fees and public funds, all
of which have risen markedly in
the last 10 years.
Minneapolis Campaign
MINNEAPOLIS (JTA) — The
Minneapolis Federation for Jewish
Service has authorized the Jewish
center here to conduct a $2,820,000
capital fund drive to help finance
the construction of a new center,
expand Camp Tikvah and develop
a projected new day camp site. The
drive for the funds will be con-
ducted from Nov. 1, 1965 to Jan.
31, 1966.
Wing for Nursing Home
BALTIMORE (JTA)—The Jew-
ish Convalescent and Nursing

its doors with 10 patients, this
week dedicated a new wing. In-
cluded in the new facility, which
will accommodate 82 patients, will
be rooms for physiotherapy and oc-
cupational therapy.

Two Strong Blows and a Weak One
By D'VORAH DOR
Let us call her Ruth.
In Poland she wouldn't open her
door to a soul unless he knocked
on the door with two strong blows
and a weak one.
For there were her parents,
Catholics, who had opened their
door to anybody who knocked. And
then others came and murdered
them.
Ever since she had shut herself
into the house, she. kept the door
under lock and bolt. She wouldn't
open it to a soul unless he
knocked: two strong blows and a
weak one. Then the partisans
would enter, take some baked
potatos, rub their hands over the
stove and head for the nearby
forest.
He was not a partisan. He was
a man pursued, like a beast flee-
ing the fire. For many weeks he
had been pursued. Until he found
himself alone between the snow-
drifts and the heavens — opposite
the door of that house near the
forest.
He knocked. No reply.
Through the bare toes of his
feet the cold flowed up into the
fingertips of his hands.
"Got to warm my hands, what-
ever happens, or else I'll freeze,"
he whispered to himself. "I'll warm
'em knocking at the door!"
He delivered two powerful blows
and grew faint. The third was a
weak one.
Then the door opened.
On the threshold, a red, hairy
monkey collapsed. A scream es-
caped her:
"Nazi!"
"No, I'm human."
"Murderer!"
"No, a Jew."
And that was how he became a
partisan.
Both of them expelled God from
t h e i r hearts, because he had
calmly looked on at the murder of
children. Their son w a s neither
circumsized nor baptized. 0 n e
night they f o u n d him frozen.
Heaven-fearing Catholics did not
allow them to bury him in their
cemetery. They dug him a grave
outside the fence . .

There is an enchantingly beau-
tiful idyl in the Bible - it is called
the Scroll of Ruth. It is permeated
with the perfume of a field at har-
vest time, perfumed with love and
companionship. Its people accom-
pany the individual, share in his
sorrow, rejoice in his happiness.
She loves this Book, loves the
Bible, the People of the Bible, the
Land of the Bible.
We shall call her - Ruth.
Here they are, seated on a bale
of hay amidst a celebrating throng.
This is the most charming celebra-
tion in the kibbutz, scented with
the fragrance of harvested wheat
and first fruits.
Among t h e dancing children,
wearing their wreathes, there is

Al Schacht Baseball Story
Al Schacht, the Clown Prince
of Baseball reminiscing about his
playing career: "I was a pretty
good pitcher until I hurt my arm.
I faced Ruth four times and beat
him every time. But I'm one of
the few pitchers off whom the
Babe failed to hit a home run.
"I once told that to Ruth. 'Babe,'
I said to him, 'I must have pitched
50 games against you, when you
were with Providence, Baltimore,
Boston and New York, and you
never hit me for a home run.' He
just laughted and said, 'Nice goin',
kid."'
