Abraham Foxman, asso-
ciate national director of the
Anti-Defamation League of
Bnai Brith, here this week
to confer with Bnai Brith,
ADL and community lead-
ers, expressed confidence
•that the faith that has al-
ways sustained Jews in
their struggles against
bigotry will triumph in the
difficult years ahead.
Viewing the current
world situation as the worst
for Jewry since the world
conflict, Foxman refused to
yield to panic in matters re-
lating to the political con-
test this year. He judged the
appearance of the three
candidates for President at
the Bnai Brith convention
as valuable for the country,
for Israel and the Jewish
people because the issues of
this era were confronted
and were not shunned.
The issues, he said, are
not Israel alone, but also the
economic, the social, the
matters relating to world af-
fairs.
Looking askance at the
"Jewish vote" emphasis,
he said there is no ignor-

Joint Distribution Committee

NEW YORK — In Tunis,
the Foyer for the Aged
houses 32 elderly Jews in a
white, blue-shuttered
turn-of-the-century build-
ing a half-block from the
ocean. To the majority of the
elderly, it is the arrival of
the Jewish festivals and
holidays that mark the turn
of the year.
One of the more joyous
holidays eagerly partici-
pated in by all the residents
of the Foyer is Sukkot. At
that time Hossein, the
houseman, erects a sukka
on the front piazza of the
building. While it is Hos-
sein who does most of the
physical labor, he must play
to a tough -audience, for al-
most everyone sits outside
in a semi-circle and gives
him advice, criticism, and

At the same time, he de-
plored the manner in which
the Jerusalem and other is-
sues were treated with in-
difference, the media and
world statesmen admitting
the justice of Jewish conten-
tions and then acting under
pressure from the oil inter-

directions.
Everyone recalls the suk-
kot of their youth in the
"hara," the old Jewish quar-
ter in Tunis. And everyone,
especially the vociferous
women, has their own ideas
about the the best way to
decorate a sukka.
Once Hossein gets the
basic structure up and
battened down against
the sea wind, Mme. Mel-
loul, the directress,
hands out pomegranates,
palm fronds, pears, bitter
oranges, and colored
paper decorations.
Each person directs Hos-
sein as to where he wants
his decorations to go. And
then, finally there is a hush
as the many tiny can-
delabra are filled with oil.
On the first night of Suk-
kot, the rabbi who has an
apartment next door to the
Foyer, brings his family
over, and as evening begins
to fall, the special prayers
and songs can be heard
wafting over the wall.
People passing the open
gate stop and stare at the
small twinkling lights and
the elderly chanting.
Everyone has a turn partak-
ing of a meal in the sukka
during the week. At that
time conversation centers
around past Sukkot holi-
days, other places and other
times, when the Tunis
housetops were alive with
glittering booths.
This small handful now
gives thanks that they have
a pleasant dwelling-place
like the Foyer, where they
can be among their breth-
ren and can continue to
celebrate a holiday which is
such an important link in
their Jewish year.

All things now held to be
old were once new.

These will be difficult
years, he said, yet "we must
recogniie the bitterness of
previous experiences. There
is an increase of prejudice
and times are hard for our
people, and our weapon re-
mains the same: faith."
