Meyer Levin's 'Lornpulsion,'
-
'In Search' Now PapeTbacked
Just as the Leopold-Loeb
case, half a century ago,
sensationalized the news on
a worldwide basis, so, also,
was that shocking occurrence
represented with great effect
in a great documentary novel
by Meyer Levin.
The eminent novelist's
"Compulsion," a best seller
that brought to light again
the tragedy of a kidnaped
and murdered little boy by
two highly educated young

men, is an imperishable
work. Its reappearance as a
Simon and Schuster Pocket
Books paperback is a notable
recognition of a work that
needs widest circulation and
will thus receive it.

"Compulsion" is a drama
of such immense proportions
that the Meyer Levin story
serves not only as entertain-
ing and informative reading
but also as a social docu-
ment for all time.
Meyer Levin, currently
popular as the author of
"The Settlers," the powerful
story about the pioneers
who planted the roots for
redeemed Jewish statehood
in Israel, told his life's story
in another great book, "In
Search." This autobiography,
which earned commendations
from interested readers like
Albert Einstein and Thomas
Mann, also has been reissued
as a Simon and Schuster
Pocket Books paperback.
From his youth, Meyer
Levin became intimately ac-
quainted, as a reporter and
in acquaintance with many
of the people involved, with
notables in Chicago's turbu-
lent episodes. The subsequent
experiences and a lifetime
filled with dramatic events
have influenced the life of
Meyer Levin. He has had a
career of distinction as well
as marked dramatic effects
from the events in which he
became both involved and
drawn in by circumstances.
There are lessons for
authors and readers, for
"Apart from the nourish-
ment it receives from the
life-giving dew of the holiness
of Eretz Yisrael, Jewry in
the Diaspora has no real
foundation and lives only by
the power of a vision, and by
the memory of our glory, i.e.,
by the past and the future.
But there is a limit to the
power of such a vision to
carry the burden of life and
to give direction to the career
of a people—and this limit
seems already to have been
reached. Diaspora Jewry is
therefore disintegrating at an
alarming rate, and there is
no hope for it unless it re-
plants itself by the wellspring
of real life, of inherent san-
city, which can be found only
in Eretz Yisrael."—Rabbi A.
Y. Kook, 1910.

JERUSALEM (JTA) —
High schools are turning into
dormitories as the vacation
season approaches. Some 400
beds have been moved into
the schools which will be
used as ad hoc youth hostels
for visiting groups of over-
seas youths.
The need for makeshift
youth hostel facilities is
shown in the figures for the
country's 32 regular youth
hostels.
In 1972, they registered
635,000 guest-nights—exactly
six times as many as all the
youth hostels in all the Arab
countries put together. The
statistics were compiled by
the tourism ministry.

Israel May See
Lower Export Tax
BRUSSELS (JTA) — Israel
and the European Economic
Community opened tariff ne-
gotiations this week with the
EEC proposing the reduction
of customs tariffs for all Is-
raeli industrial exports to the
Common Market beginning
Jan. 1, 1974.
The EEC proposed that
these reductions continue on
a progressive basis so that
by July 1, 1977, Israel will
pay no more tariffs and by
Jan. 1, 1980, will have no
more quotas fixed on the
amount of industrial goods
she can export.
