KETURA, Israel — Forty
miles from Eilat in the sun-
bleached desert wastes of the
Negev, 37 young American
men and women have founded
a kibutz called Ketura —
after Abraham's second wife.
They are graduates of
Hadassah's Zionist youth
movement, Hashahar, a n d
come mainly from protective
middle-class homes where
they never worked as hard
nor risked their lives as they
do now.
"People ask why we have
left the U.S.," -one of the
young women said. "It isn't
a rejection at all. We see this
as a positive thing: we arc
contributing to the upbuilding
of a Jewish homeland whiCh
desperately needs us."
A young man, said. "The
American example— the
democratic values and the
organized voluntarism—grow
in fertile - soil in Israel."
The young settler s are
graduates of Hashahar's 1967,
1968 and 1969 year-course in
Israel program. Before they
return to Israel from the
United States they first had
to study in the U.S. Upon
their return to Israel, they
had to live on an established
kibutz to understand the prac-
tical problems of running
their own.
After living on the kibutz-
where three couples have
married and three became
engaged — they had to serve
in Nahal, the farm-pioneer

37 Young Americans Found Negev Desert Kibutz

WE DELIVER,

Graduates of Hadassah's Young Judaea Zionist youth movement, Hashahar, hoist
their flag at Ketura, a former Nahal settlement in the Arava — only two miles from
the Jordanian border.

division of the Israel Defense
Forces.
On Nov. 22, the ,garin (nu-
cleus) formally took over the
operation of the kibutz,
which until then had been a
Nahal settlement. Despite the
Yom Kippur War, the cere-
mony was attended by gov-
ernment officials, by Rose E.
Matzkin, national president
of Hadassah, by 120 Young
Judaeans in Hadassah's cur-
rent year-course program in
Israel; and member s cf
neighboring kibutzim.
The setting is austere: two
rows of severe-looking, bar-
rack-like cottages set in a
patch of lawn on the salty,
gravelly, sand floor of the
Great Rift Valley between
two parallel mountain ranges.
To the west are the stony
and uninviting hills of the
Negev, and to the east, be-
yond the border of Jordan,
the towering mountains of
Moab.
Minister of Agriculture
Haim Gavati said: "We are
proud of our settlements in
the Arava. There are not
many nations in the world
who have managed to make
the desert bloom as we in
Israel have done. We are
helped by cadres of scientists
and researchers. But without
the hundreds of pioneering
youth to devote their energy
and skills, the miracle of
settling the desert would
never have taken place. This
is the first time that a settle-
ment has been founded with
pioneers who got their train-
ing in America."

Reintegration of Jews
With Their Judaism
Unless Jews "reintegrate
themselves with their Juda-
ism, its traditions, its values,
its standards, and co-operate
as such, as integrated Jews,
on highest levels of American
culture and on these alone,
there is no future for the
American Jewish community
except one of shame and dis-
aster.—Ludwig Lewisohn.
