Doomed Patient Lives -Extra 18 Years (Hai);
Widow Leaves Funds for Cancer Research
JERUSALEM — Twenty years
ago, Nahum Eliezer Philosoph, a
worker at the Hadassah-Hebrew
University Medical Center, was
told that he had two years to live.
He had cancer of the bladder.
In fact, he lived another 20 years,
years full of productive activity as
head of the laundry department.
After his death, the money re-
ceived by his widow from the
.Hadassah insurance fund was do-
nated to establish research schol-
arships on cancer.
The first recipient of this schol-
arship is Dr. Yitzhak Sever, a
doctor serving in the Israeli Army
Medical Corps, who has been
granted leave from the army to
study cancer of the bladder at the
Hadassah-Hebrew University
Medical Center.
In awarding the scholarship to
Dr. Sever, Prof. Abraham Hoch-
man, head of the department of
oncology, said:

Soviet Jews are in a category
of its own as dissenters. Non-
Jewish dissenters merely want a
more liberal regime, a freer ap-
proach to the arts, more and varied
newspapers. Jewish dissenters
want to go to Israel. Some even
say that they do not belong to
Soviet society. since Soviet society
has spewed them out, despite the
revolution, and anti-Semitism is
rampant in the Soviet Union.
Jewish dissent in Russia is more
expressed in a refusal to believe
what is said about Israel than in
direct criticism of the System.'Who
wants to criticize the System when
the main purpose is to go to Is-
rael? . . .
This mood is best expressed in a
famous story that is being told all
over Russia. During a lecture by
the anti-Semite Kychko in Khar-
kov, an elderly Jewish physician,
dignified and calm, wearing dark
cloth and leaning his goatee beard
on a silver-headed cane, sat in the
front row and listened attentively.
Said Kychko: "Israel is a crea-
tion of American imperialism."
And the elderly doctor nodded in
assent.
Said Kychko: "Zionism is a
Fascist creed." And the doctor
nodded in assent.
Said Kychko: "In Israel, new
immigrants are starving in the
gutter and nobody pays them the
slightest attention."
Said Kychko: "What is more, in
October the rains start in Israel.
It rains and rains and rains. It
never stops." And the doctor took
out a little notebook and made a
note.
After the lecture, Kychko went
up, shook hands and the following
conversation ensued.
Kychko: "Do you remember me,
doctor? I used to be your patient."
The doctor: "Of course I do. You
used to drink too much. How is
your liver now?"
Kychko: "It is much better since
you treated me. Thank you. But
tell me why did you visibly agree
with everything I said, which was
very gratifying, but made a note
only when I spoke of the heavy
rains?"
The doctor: "Ah, you see, I
made a note not to forget to take
my umbrella when I go to Israel."
The Jewish dissent, their protest
against the slandering of Israel
and the distortion of Jewish teach-
ings, is expressed not in polemical
underground newspapers but in a
resolve to get out and go to Israel.
It is the Jews outside Russia, espe-
cially the younger ones, who need
reminding from time to time that
the modern Soviet propagandists
are tremendous liars, people who
can out-Goebbel Dr. Goebbels and

MONTREAL (JTA) — The Can-
adian Jewish Congress plans to
establish a national committee of
all segments of Canadian Jewry
to study Jewish commitment to
the eradication of poverty. The
plans were disclosed to the com-
mittee on poverty of the Canadian
Senate in a brief signed by CJC
president Monroe Abbey and Rabbi
Gunther W. Piaui, chairman of its
religious affairs committee. Ac-
cording to the brief, the study will
cover some form of guaranteed
income, participation of the poor
in anti-poverty programs and the
effects of unemployment and other
economic factors. The brief stated
that "the poor have always been
regarded as part of the Jewish ex-
tended family."
