'Between You
... and Me'
Editor-in-Chief
Emeritus, JTA
(Copyright 1975, JTA, Inc.)
JDC IN ACTION: Jack D. Weiler, chairman of the
Joint Distribution Committee, is a man of action and
achievement. Several hundred Jewish community leaders
from all parts of the country attending the JDC annual
meeting in New York this week will learn of a number of his
innovations in the 61-year-old Jewish relief organization.
Immediately after his becoming the top leader of the JDC
— at the first meeting of the JDC's 40-man executive com-
mittee — he announced that the executive committee, and
not he as chairman, will be the maker of decisions in the
organization.
_ - He appointed a team of experts in Jewish communal
work to make an independent study, in depth, of the gover-
nance of the JDC, its philosophy, its operations, its needs
and its priorities.
Weiler also finalized the JDC agreement for the estab-
lishment of the Brookdale Institute of Gerontology and Ad-
ult Human Development in .Israel.
STRENGTHENING LINKS: JDC in Israel is moving
its quarters from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. Weiler favors the
internationalization of JDC by having executive committee
members from Canada, England, South Africa and other
countries which contribute funds to JDC for its worldwide
relief and rehabilitation operations. He also plans to build
the JDC governing bodies of a geographically-balanced ba-
sis with more members from cities outside of New York.
He intends to visit all the countries where the JDC op-
erates and gain personal impressions of the Jewish needs in
each \country. This year he visited Romania, and Latin
American countries — and, of course, Israel.
CHANGING THE GUARD: The JDC annual meeting
this week will witness the retirement of Samuel L. Haber
— one of the ablest executives, more than 30 years in JDC
service. He will retire from his post of executive-vice-chair-
man with the title hortorary executive vice-chairman and
with functions to perform.
Haber will devote himself "to put JDC on the map." He
will travel widely for JDC and UJA. I met Sam Haber for
the first time in Munich after the liberation of Germany,
when he was in charge of aiding the Jews liberated from the
Nazi camps.
Haber later performed a huge task for "Jews in Mor-
occo. His record was also very high with Polish Jews repa-
triated from the Soviet Union after the war.
Serving later in the JDC overseas headquarters in Ge-
neva, Haber played a leading role in supervising JDC's
worldwide operations in various countries. In 1960 and
again in 1962, during visits to India, he set up aid programs.
He will now be succeeded by Ralph Goldman, who has
been with the JDC since 1969 as associate director-general
in Israel.

`Arab Population
to Hit 200 Million'
PARIS (ZINS) — By the
year 2000 there' wild be a
minimum of 200 million
Arabs in the Middle East,
according to ar article by
Boris Garnia in the weekly
L'Express.
Despite the .fabulous
wealth generated by peti-o
dollars, the outlook for
these millions of Arabs -25
years hence is not favorable.
According to the author,
they will continue to be im-
proverislied and in a con-
stant state of war.
The author bases his
predictions on the fact that
most Arab countries have
too much desert and too lit-
tle arable land. Moreover,
there is little effort to ex-
pand the areas which can be
cultivated, and too much
reliance on the wealth con-
tained in the oil reserves
which will be exhausted 25
years hence:
The author, who is not
Jewish, argues that neither
wars nor liquidations will
'solve the problem of the
Arabs unless they begin
soon to develop their own
countries on a peaceful
basis. Otherwise, they face
a frightful future.
