The Jews have given many

things to the U.S.
The idea of a common
charity fund (called United
Way) is a Jewish one.
The idea of a graduated
income tax is a Hebraic con-
cept.
The Jews were the first to
have a veteran organization
in the U.S.
And the first book club
was Jewish. Now somewhat
different in its form, the
original club was the Jewish
Publication Society, of Phil-
adelphia.
The concept of subscribing
to an organization which dur-
ing the year will provide you
with books is the basis for
the JPS, and to this day one
of your best book bargains is
a membership in JPS, which
not only publishes fine books
but originates the idea for
publications and then finds
authors to write the volumes.
JPS this year deserves a
salute for something else:
it has come up with the
youngest president to head
any major Jewish organiza-
tion.
The JPS president is
Jerome Shestack of Philadel-
phia, a handsome attorney.
The 47-year-old book-lover
(he likes Ahad Ha-am and
the Talmud among other
tomes) served in the U.S.
Navy, got his law degree at
Harvard and has taught law
at Northwestern and Louisi-
ana State Universities. Be
was once deputy city solici-
tor for the City of Philadel-
phia, and has occupied many
positions of public service.
His wife is a television pro-
ducer.
But what Mr. Shestack
likes to brag about is the
fact that both his grandfath-
ers were rabbis: the late
Rabbi Israel Shankman, once
of Atlantic City and then Is-
rael; and the late Rabbi
Judah Shestack, who labored
in the City of Brotherly Love.
We compliment JPS on ac-
quiring its dynamic new
president and we urge all of
you to join the Jewish Pub-
lication Society. It's a splen-
did club

Remember, motorists —
knowlelge, plus caution,

equals safety.

A Jewish chaplain shows the son of a major how to
don phylacteries (laig tefillin) in preparation for his Bar
Mitzva. Such scenes will become increasingly familiar
as the majority of Jewish men in service will be family
men. This will require religious education for their
children, social outlets for their wives, and cultural pro-
grams for the entire family. This will mean new dimen-
sions of service to the military for the National Jewish
Welfare Board.

means to "trim," indicating
