The National Jewish POST and OPINION

“•zio“ Reporter Esptains Camp Series Were on Visits of Last Year

e Editor Jewish POST and OPINION Catching up on my reading upon my return from an extended trip to Israel and Europe I have just come across your “editor’s chair” of June 10 in which you somewhat belatedly comment on Marvin Lowenthal’s abridgment of Herzl’s Diaries. May I correct one small item in your interesting comments: Herzl did not coin the word ‘‘‘Zionism”; credit for that must go to Nathan Birnbaum, who called himself Mathias Acher and who repeatedly aroused Herzl’s ire, coming off very poorly in the Diaries. I hope that sooner or later you will get around to reading all of the Diaries, just as Herzl wrote* them. (A few months ago, at the Central Zionist Archives in Jerusalem, I had the thrill of holding in my hands the original notebooks in Herzl’s handwriting.) In October the Herzl Press and Thomas Yoseloff, Inc. are issuing my translation of “The Complete Diaries of Theodor Herzl” in a boxed, fully annotated, five-vol-ume edition. Reading this 2,000page edition will require Sitzfleisch, but I am sure it will be a fascinating experience and a revelation for many of your readers. I do hope that you will give this important publication adequate coverage in your excellent paper. HARRY ZOHN School of Humanities, Brandeis University

o Editor Jewish POST and OPINION The problem of journalistic in tegrity may unwittingly be involved in Mr. Robert Goldman’s (Sept. 2) consideration of Conservative Judaic practice and principle. The POST and OPINION article on Camp Ramah (Aug. 5) must be considered to be suspect in its entirety since at least one of its principle parts may well be in painful error. The POST and OPINION would be well advised to clarify for its readers how Mr. Levi Soshuk, director of the Camp Ramah facility in Canada was interviewed purportedly in the time of Tisha B’Av 1960, as director of Camp Ramah in the Poconos. Under such conditions, the accuracy of all the ‘‘reporting” in the article would have to be questioned until the validity of any of the parts is estblished. If it is really so that Mr. Soshuk was not interviewed this summer as the article suggests, then your reporter needs to know the power of the press better than he does. His conclusions are being quoted by many and it is possible that the data from which Mr. Goldman draws the support for at least the first part of his letter, may be invalid. The speed with which your reporter raced to his conclusion suggests that mention might be

made to him of the Ninth Commandment. I trust that he will not construe such a comment, coming from a Conservative Jew, as being too Orthodox. ALFRED L. MILLER Cranford, N. J. Our Reporter Replies: With regard to the enclosed letter, the writer is correct in stating that Mr. Soshuk is not in Pocono Ramah this year, but rather is director of the new fifth

Ramah Camp, in Canada, this year. In my first installment of the camp scries I wrote a preface in my copy as follows: “This is the first of a series of articles based on visits to various Jewish summer camps, ranging from ulteaOrthodox to Reform, and including, also, Jewish Welfare Boardsponsored camps and private camps. These camps were visited by The POST and OPINION last

summer. The purpose of these visits was to determine the amount of Jewish content in the programming of these Jewish camps and whether there is the reputed resurgence of interest in Jewish living in American Jewish camps.” The Editor Replies: There has been no challenge of the accuracy of the articles by those whose activities were reported on.
