NEW YORK — Rachel Cegla, ber Musicians." The several
eminent Israeli artist, attracted works she did in this country, all
wide attention here in the past two in New York, indicate power of
weeks with the exhibition of more
than 30 of her paintings.
Conducted at the Herzl Institute,
the exhibition is receiving wide
acclaim. It is due to remain here
for another few days and there
have been requests that it should
be returned for - a lengthier period
in order that more people — New
Yorkers and visitors from many
states who usually come to the
headquarters of the Jewish Agency
— may have an opportunity to be.
come acquainted with the creative
efforts of an eminent Israeli.
T h e r e are many noteworthy
works by Mrs. Cegla, who is visit-
ing here briefly with her husband,
a prominent industrialist in Israel.
Mr. Cegla is a cousin of Mrs. Louis
L. (Alta S.) Kazdan of Oak Park.
Especially significant in Mrs.
Cegla's collection of original
works is her "Jazz Musicians."
It is impressive, it shows the art-
ist's appreciation of the subject
that is so delicately handled.
Jewish Art Shown -
at Mercy College
A graphic arts exhibit on Jewish
life and customs will be held in
Mercy College of Detroit's student
center Sunday through Nov. 30.
The exhibit, comprising works
from the collection of Irving I.
Katz, executive secretary of Tem-
ple Beth El, will feature color
ithographs of Arthur Szyk, etch-
ings and engravings of Saul Ras-
kin and prints of Isidor Kauf-
mann. Other Jewish artists also
will be represented.
"Rosh Hashana," "Hanuka," and
"Pesah" are among the works of
Arthur Szyk, Polish-Jewish minia-
turist and cartoonist who popular_
ized the oriental and medievalistic
styles and techniques of Le Bakst,
Saul Raskin, whose death last
month ended the career of one of
the most distinguished Jewish art-
ists of the last two generations,
will be represented by "Noah's
Ark," "Learning Tora," "Wedding
Dance," "The Milkman of Tel
Aviv" and other pieces.
Isidor Kaufman was a Hunga-
rian-born Viennese Jew w h o
painted and chronicled Galician
Jewish types and customs. His best
works, like "Sabbath," reflect the
less histrionic influence of French
naturalism of the late 19th Cen-
tury.
Two works of Marc Chagall will
be in the exhibit. Moritz Oppen-
observation mingled with an art-
ist's vital imagination.
"Safed Landscape," " S e a and
Sun," "Boats on the Sea of Galilee,"
"Safed Synagogue" -- these are
among the best of her works, yet
it is impossible to say that any
particular group is the best be-
cause in all of her paintings there
is a mingling of spirit and skill, a
fusion of the Israeli and the Jew-
ish with the universal.
A native of Germany, who has
lived in Israel since 1933, Mrs.
Cegla is the daughter of a veteran
Zionist leader, Dr. Willi Victor, a
lawyer, who was a delegate to the
first Zionist Congress in Basle in
1898. Her father had the vision to
see clearly what Hitler meant to
European _Jews, and he wasted no
time in ge
tting out of Germany
once the Nazis came to power.
Her husband, Juda Cegla, a suc-
cessful manufacturer of vegetable
oils in Tel Aviv, also understood
what Hitlerism meant, and he, too,
left Germany in 1933. They were
married in 1936, and have two
children, a 28-year-old son and
a 16-year.old daughter.
Though she started painting in
Germany at the age of 15, Rachel
Cegla's artistic career began in
the 1940s, after her children grew
up. She has exhibited in one man
shows in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv,
as well as in Europe and Latin
America, and after her American
exhibit, she will be part of a five
man show of Safed artists that will
be exhibited in Zurich, Basle, and
Geneva. Ot' ers in the Safed group
are Kossonogi, a water colorist,
Esther Lurie who specializes in
sketches, Claire Sziliard, who
works in oil, and Arye Reznick, a
sculptor. In her current exhibit,
Mrs. Cegla is showing only mono-
types.
Collector Teams to Cut
Tax Evasion in Israel
Listen, we've got to make
a living.
We think that a shoe store that's a little hard to find is better than
no shoe store at all.
Especially now that more and more men are starting to find Phillips
Northland Men's Shoe Shop.
And when they do, they find the city's biggest collect'
of Flor-
sheims and Hush Puppies®. And they buy shoes, and they Lamle back
again and buy more shoes. And they tell their friends and relatives.
They tell them about the shoes, and about how easy it is to get a
place to park on the quiet side of Northland. So we're seeing new
faces (and feet) all the time. Come and see what we have to offer.
Maybe you'll see why we think that someday our shoe store that's a
little hard to find will be known as one of those shoe stores you
don't find very often.

JERUSALEM — The Israel Fi-
nance Ministry opened a drive
Wednesday to enforce income tax
collections. Several dozen teams
of revenue • inspectors began to
check income tax returns.
Ministry officials believe that
considerable amounts in income
tax payments are still being evaded
by taxpayers.
The special drive was stimulated
in part by the adoption last month
