WASHINGTON (JTA) — A
rumor that Jewish organiza-
tions may be seeking to pre-
vent the re-election of Sen.
J. William Fulbright (D.
Ark.) to a sixth term in No-
vember was denounced by
organization leaders as "ab-
solutely untrue."
They emphasized that Ful-
bright's political future is a
decision of voters in Ar-
kansas.
Herman Edelsberg, direc-
tor of the Bnai Brith Inter-
national Council, said: "Jew-
ish organizations disagree
with Sen. Fulbright's inter-
pretation of America's na-
tional interests in Middle
East affairs. We are con-
vinced that he tilts sharply
to the Arab side. But none
of the organizations is inter-
fering in any way in the
Arkansas state election be-
cause they believe that judg-
ment on the relative merits
of Sen. Fulbright and his op-
ponents is something that the
voters of Arkansas must
make for themselves."
Fulbright, long severely
critical of Zionism and U. S.
governmental aid to Israel,
said only two weeks ago on
a television program that
Zionists are trying to oust
him from the Senate where
he has served 30 years.
Some listeners felt his re-
mark was to provoke attacks
on him from Jewish leaders
which his backers could then
flaunt to traditionally anti-
Semitic extremists as proof
of Jewish animosity towards
him.
The rumor may have
stemmed from a news report
Jan. 27 in the Memphis
Commercial Appeal by John
Bennet of its bureau in Little
Rock.
Bennet reported that former
two-term Arkansas Gov. Sid-
ney McMath had talked with
"a long-time Jewish friend"
whom Bennet said he identi-
fied as Irving M. Engel,
about raising Jewish cam-
paign funds for Arkansas
Gov. Dale Bumpers for a
race against Fulbright.
Engel, a former president
of the American Jewish
Committee, and currently
honorary president and board
of governor's member, prac-
ticed law in Alabama and is
a friend of many southern
political leaders.
According to the Com-
mercial Appeal, McMath is
considering opposing Ful-
bright for the Senate seat.

Lincoln's name brings
memories of the R u s s ian-
Jewish Hertz family. Hertz
managed to eke out a living.
He had two sons, Emmanuel
or Mannie, and Joe, and they
were his chief concern.
Emmanuel managed to get
enough money to take him to
college and he became a
lawyer. He had a hobby:
Abraham Lincoln. He did
much to research and disclose
unknown facts about Lincoln.
His writings did not achieve
the fame of a Herndon, who
knew Lincoln personally, or
even of Carl Sandburg, but
he became recognized as one
of the country's authorities
on Lincolnia.
No one researched the life
of Emmanuel Hertz as
closely as Hertz researched
Lincoln's, but I came across
an interesting story.
Emmanuel Hertz used to

come down rower Fourth
Ave. in New York, the sec-
ond-hand book section of the
city and buy books in quanti-
ties and ship them to Ken
tucky. He could not forget
the humble town in Kentucky
in which Lincoln was born
and he set himself the ob-
jective of establishing per-
sonally libraries in two small
Kentucky villages which had
no. libraries.
Lincoln walked 30 miles
for a book! Emmanuel Hertz
made it unnecessary in two
places for future Lincolns to
walk that much for a book!
The story was told to me
by one of the dealers Em-
manuel Hertz used to visit
every week or so.
Now about Hertz's sec-
ond son, Joe? Hertz was
very disturbed about Joe's
future. He came to R a b b i
Aaron Wise lamenting. "I
don't know what to do.
Should he study law or medi-
cine or something else. Even
if I did know, what could I
do? Where am I going to get
the money to send him to
college?"
"Make him a rabbi," ad-
vised Rabbi Aaron Wise.
"Send him to a rabbinical
college. I am sure they will
give him a scholarship and
that will take care of his
college tuition."
So Joe went to a rabbinical
school.
You must have heard of the
late Chief Rabbi of the Brit-
ish Empire, Joseph Herman
Hertz!
