LETTER BOX

Nat'l Committee for Effective Congress
Refutes Allegation of Anti-Israel Bias

Editor. The Jewish News:
On July 7, in your letter box
column, you published a letter
from Mr. Hymie Cutler which al-
- leged that the National Commit-
tee for an Effective Congress was
not pro-Israel..
Your readers should know that
many of the first directors of the
NCEC when it was founded in
1948 had been leaders of the
American Committee for a Free
Palestine. Our first major Senate
fight was in support of Herbert
Lehman in his campaign against
John Foster Dulles in New York.
Over 25 years, the committee
has supported Abraham Ribicoff,
Jacob Javits, Howard Metzenbaum
and most other Jewish candidates
for the House of Representtatives
and Senate. We have consistently
taken the position that the Jew-
ish community is underrepresent-
ed in both the Senate and the
House of Representatives.
Candidates for the Congress who
have had the endorsement and
financial help of the NCEC have
been among the most loyal sup-
porters of the state of Israel, in-
cluding Michigan's own great sen-
ator, Philip A. Hart.
Much of our support comes from
the Jewish community which is
done a disservice by Mr. Cutler's
allegations.

Effective Congress

Rabbi Zwick's Death
Mourned by Colleague

Editor, The Jewish News:
I feel a sense of personal loss
at the death of Rabbi David
Zwick. His passing has created a
void which will always be felt by
those of us who had the privilege
of knowing him, and being as-
sociated with him.
I became well acquainted with
Rabbi Zwick during the five years
I serve.., as headmaster of 'fillet
Day School. where he taught with
love and affection. He was an un-
usual teacher. His knowledge of
the subjects he taught was pro-
foand and overflowing. Ile was
convinced that teaching Jewish
children was not an accident in
his life, but a choice in perform-
ing the commandment of "Thou
shalt teach them diligently unto
thy children."
He loved Jewish children and
he loved them best when he saw
them praying in shul and prac-
ticing what he had taught them
in school. He was patient with
them and gentle and kind. He
as concerned with their wel.
fare and with their progress. His
greatest pleasures were study
of Torah, reading Hebrew books
and journals, seeking a "hidush"
—a new discovery in the under-
standing of the Bible, finding
a "good word" in the Midrash
or in the weekly Sidra.
As a human being, he was "con-
teat with his lot " He wanted to
he happy and made an effort at

being happy. He. therefore, never
"ave the impression of sadness.
He had a perpetual smile; he was
amiable and congenial. lie smiled
during formalities, his face red-
dened, and he shrugged, embar-
rassed by those who granted him
honor or recognition.
This is a great loss to Jewish
education in America and par-
ticularly to the Jewish community
of Detroit, which he served so
quietly, so diligently, so lovingly.
May his memory be a blessing.
