To assure highest standards in
school curricula, and school admin-
istration, in Southfield, all citi-
zens must end their lethargy and
must vote at the election on
Monday, June 8, two candidates
for the Southfield board of edu-
cation urged this week.
Joseph Kelley and Dr. Harold
Bussey, the two candidates for
• the board, stated that it is neces-
sary to strive for ever improving
conditions in educational efforts
and they expressed the hope that
all citizens will vote on June 8.
"It's regrettable that many do
not vote at late spring elections,"
Kelley and Bussey said. "We need
the interest of all our citizens
in our school system. We hope
there will be a heavy vote, indi-
cating the concern we should all
share."

Judge Is Criticized
for Black Jury Charge
Editor, The Jewish News:
Judge Poindexter seems to for-
get fast. How about the Algiers
Trial of four whites, who were
acquitted by an all-white jury.
Why then accuse an all-black jury
to be protective if a black person
is on trial? It is even denied
by Wayne County Prosecutor Wil-
liam Cahalan. Come now and let
us reason together.

Whitney Young has been denounc-
ed by more militant blacks as an
Uncle Tom. But the executive di-
rector of the National Urban Lea-
gue is not lacking friends in the
Jewish community.
The Urban League chief obser-
ves that this new age of anti-
establishment, anti-war dissent was
largely generated by the intellec-
tual, well-educated, activist mem-
bers of the student scene. And in
those categories, he noted, many
Jewish youths—boys and girls—
belong. Thus, Young concluded,
attempts to stifle dissent—whether
by military action at Kent State or
by construction workers' roughneck
tactics in New York—may be moti-
vated in large part by latent anti-
Semitism.
Anti-Semitism—whether black or
white — and anti-Negro prejudice
are all part of a pattern of activat-
ed intolerance that has been level-
ed for eons against Jews and in
more recent centuries against
American blacks. The recent bar-
barisms of some National Guards-
men and police only inflame the
crisis.
If Whitney Young's attribution of
latent anti-Semitism to anti-student
action is indeed a fact, Jewish stu-
dents face immediate obstacles— ,
even crises—in their path toward a
college degree.
Several weeks ago Bnai Brith
released a report indicating that
state colleges' increasingly re-
strictive acceptance policy—fav-
oring state residents over out-of-
staters regardless of grades—
Brith's Anti-Defamation League,
that "Jewish students are caught
in a crunch" at the elite North-
east colleges.
In an interview with this writer,
Braverman responded to a New
York Times survey indicating that
the Ivy League and Seven Sisters
colleges, hit by increasing costs,
are concentrating on "very rich"
students and those "economically
distressed" and clutching scholar-
ships. Jewish students are thus
"handicaped" because they are
chiefly middle-class and fall be-
tween the wealthy and the needy.
(The Ivy League institutions charge
$4,000-$5,000 a year.)

Braverman, noting that half of
America's Jews reside in the New
York-New Jersey metropolitan
area, said the impending shift of
Jewish students from the more
elite schools to state schools like
the State University of New York
and Rutgers University will put an
excessively heavy burden on them.
"They are bursting at the seams
now," he said.

Three Wings to

Mr. Faye Schenk, national
president of Hadassah, meets
with the U.S. ambassador to
Israel, Walworth Barbour, at the
dedication of three new wings to
the Hadassah-Hebrew University
Medical Center, Jerusalem,
which were built with a grant of
$1,000,000 from the U.S. Agency
for International Development.
The new buildings house the de-
partment of public and social
medicine, an addition to the
Henrietta Szold School of Nursing
and a physicians' residence for
overseas doctors who are spend-
ing their sabbatical leaves work-
ing at Hadassah.
Since 1957 oral compounds have
been available for the treatment
of diabetes. These compounds are
not insulin, but the mode of ac-
tion of most of them is to stimu-
late the pancreas to produce more
insulin. Unlike insulin, the oral
compounds are effective only in
certain types of diabetes—mainly
the mild diabetes of older people
who have developed this condition
after the age of 45.
