'Magic of Paper' Great Work
for Young, Also Suiting Adults

When a book is instructive and
is written for children, it assumes
a most valuable place in homes
and libraries.
"The Magic of Paper" by Walter
Buehr, published by William Mor-
row & Co. (425 Park, S., NY 16)
belongs in this category of splen-
did books for young readers.
Describing "the need for paper,"
this volume tells about picture
writing before paper, the origin
of the word "tablet," painting on
bark and leaves. Then he explains
that the word paper comes from
papyrus "and the word Bible was
derived from biblio, the name of
the inner fiber of the plant" which
was used in early writing by
Egyptians.

the early paper mill is told in
interesting fashion, the Japa-
nese, Dutch and other methods
are reviewed and resort to mod-
ern methods shows how the
craft has developed.

Buehr has gone into great de-
tail in tracing all steps in paper-
making, and his description of cur-
rent methods, the photographs il-
lustrating the vast machinery now
used, the great need for paper
and the manner in which it has
helped revolutionize the world, all
make this a most unusual book.
It was written for children, but
it is so informative, it is so re-
plete with facts, with details
necessary for an understanding of
the great art, that "The Magic of
Papermaking's invention is Paper" emerges as a very great
credited to the Chinese, their work suitable for adults as well.

scholars "having scratched their
writings upon strips of bamboo
with a pointed stylus." There is
an interesting description of the
molds they used, made of cloth,
for their writing. The story of

AJCongress Hits
Schwartz Removal

NEW YORK — The American
Jewish Congress has protested the
"forced removal" of State Depart-
ment aide Abba P. Schwartz and
urged President Johnson to make
sure government officials are not
victimized "for their liberal con-
victions."
In a letter to the White House,
Dr. Joachim Prinz, president of the
Congress, urged President John-
son to investigate "whether mo-
tives other than those of adminis-
trative efficiency" were behind
Schwartz's ouster as head of the
State Department Bureau of Se-
curity and Consular Affairs.
Dr. Prinz in his letter lauded
Schwartz's public and private work
which he said was "adopted as a
model" for America's recently lib-
eralized immigration policy.
The AJCongress president sug-
gested that Schwartz's work in end-
ing the country's restrictive immi-
gration policies might have brought
on the decision to eliminate his
bureau and his job.
The American Jewish Commit-
tee urged President Johnson to
move to retain the Bureau of Se-
curity and Consular Affairs under
the direction of Schwartz. Schwartz
resigned last week and his resig-
nation has been accepted by Presi-
dent Johnson.

ment of post-biblical Jewish
thought.
Prof. Scholem is the author of

Jewish Agency Executive
Votes $120 Million Budget

JERUSALEM (JTA)—The Jew-
ish Agency executive Tuesday
voted a tentative budget of 360,-
578,000 Israeli pounds ($120,192,-
333) for the next fiscal year, be-
ginning April 1.
The amount surpasses last year's
budget by 10 per cent. The total,
however, is still subject to review
by the permanent budget commit-
tee which, in turn, is to reconsider
the budgets of the agency's var-
ious departments and reduce them
if possible. The departmental bud-
gets are to be examined by sub-
committees.
Meanwhile, Jacob Tsur, presi-
dent of the Jewish National Fund,
informed the executive that the
Israel government has agreed to
turn over to the JNF 125,000 acres
of arable land for development
purposes. The agreement for this
arrangement, he reported, will be
signed by the government and the
JNF March 28.

will be held 6 p.m. Sunday at
Cong. Bnai Moshe.
The communitywide event was
postponed last Sunday in tribute
to the memory of Rabbi Adler. Lo-
cation also has been changed from THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Beth Aaron Synagogue.
