Nasser Spending $500,000,000 for Anti-Israel War Tel Aviv (JTA)—The Nasser regime in Egypt is investing $500,000,000, one-seventh of its national income, in the development of ground-to-ground rockets and other offensive weapons, Shimon Peres, Israel's Deputy Defense Minister, asserted. He told a rally that European experts oi) Arab affairs, were convinced that the Arabs were serious in their unremitting threats against Israel, that they had not given up their aggressive intentions, and did not despair of realizing them. He cited the feverisli efforts of the surrounding Arab regimes to pile up arms, and noted their an'Hsrael propaganda and economic warfare. He said that those measures were intended to isolate Israel, to build up an arsenal of offensive weapons, and ultimately to use these armaments against Israel. He said other weapons, which Egypt is developing included pocket submarines and Egyptian-made jet planes. The defense official said Nasser was portraying himself, to various elements in the light that each wanted.

Levi Eshkol Issues New Year Greeting Jerusalem (JTA)—Prime Minister Levi Eshkol today extended the greetings of the Israel Government and his personal wishes to the people of Israel and to Jews in other countries for the Jewish New Year 5725. In his message, the P r i m e Minister expressed " s p e c i a l greetings to tin immigrants who have recently arrived, for whom this is the first New Year in their own, free land, and to the immigrants who will come during this next year. May they strike root in the Land and become a part of its life, so that, they derive from it the strength to absorb, together with us, those who will follow them." "May this New Year," continued Mr. Eshkol, "bring its blessing to those who are devoted to our Land and to those who engage in its defense. May the work of their h a n d s be blessed. May they be given the strength which is the guarantee of peace. "Foremost in our thoughts are the Jewish communities in lands of dispersion marked by persecution and separation from our people. We are today again witnesses to Jewish communities facing the danger of rising antiSemitism in the lands where they dwell. Jewish communities, and among them a very large one, live cut off from the body of the Jewish people, without ways

They are our brothers, in the past, the present and the future, in suffering and in hope; we wish them a year of pride and redemption. "We send our greetings to our millions of brothers in the lands of abundance. May this year be a year of deepening their Jewish identity, a year of fruitful activity on behalf of Jewish eduaction, and the strengthening' of Israel. "In Israel itself, we are called upon, during this New Year as well, for increased efforts to strengthen our security, to advance our economic basis, and for a great program to deepen and broaden our education andenrich our spiritual activity. We shall face the test of a free democracy in the election campaign which should take place this year. "May it be given all of us to succeed in the test of determining Israel's road to strength, pioneering and progress, ingathering the exiles and educating her sons to halizut and loyalty."

THE JEWISH PKKSS
World Jewry, 5724 By Geoffrey Wigoder The past year. 5724. has not w i t n e s s e d any cataclysmic changes regarding the Jewish people; its essential characteristic has been a continuation— and often deepening—of processes, many of them insidious. that had been discerned in previous years. Tims in the Western World, a number of studies appeared confirming assimilatory tendencies in many communities. These h a r d l y made head!'nes but had a cumulative impact on those concerned with the future of the Jewish people who—in their various ways—had to consider What further actions could be taken to counteract the general trend. The Soviet Union Another continuing process has been evidenced by signs of anti-Semitism inside the U.S.S.R. Here again the manifestations had become familiar—the disproportionate a c c u s a t i o n of Jews in economic trials, the impossibility of obtaining matzah . for Passover (this year, despite promises that matzah would be baked in Moscow and imported from abroad, neither of which was fulfilled) and the publication of anti-Semitic literature. Protests were issued during the year from several gatherings of Outstanding intellectuals in various parts of the world as well as from distinguished individuals noted for their liberal sympathies and hence persona grata in the U.S.S.R. (e.g. Bertrand Russell, Albert Schweitzer, Arthur Miller). These protests had a tangible effect in at least two instances: one was the quashing of the declared intention to hold a big economic show-trial in Moscow, the other was the denunciation and withdrawal of the notorious book "Judaism without Embellishment" which had been issued under the imprimatur of the Ukrainian Academy of Arts and Sciences. Protests against the publication of this book were voiced by Com jnunist parties in France and other countries. The Western Hemisphere Examples of continuing antiSemitism appeared in other parts of the world, although in most countries of Western Europe and North America, the Neo-Nazi type of anti-Semite made little or no headway and achieved no popular support. This has not prevented him Ironi continuing his manifold .activities, often with financial and other s u p p o r t from Arab sources. In South Africa, the prominent role played by Jews in liberal causes led to a number of anti-Jewish utterances while in South America the situation continued disquieting. An ugly development occurred in the U.S. with open evidence of anti-Jewish feeling among Negro elements, often fostered by the Black Moslem movement. Inside Germany the outstanding event of Jewish interest during the past year has not been present anti-Semitism but recollections of the hideous past, evoked by a number of major War Crimes trials, including the Auschwitz trial and that of two of- Eichmann's closest associates. A remarkable exhibition devoted to 2.000 years of Jewish settlement in the Rhineland was held at Cologne; it was organized with German thoroughness and impressed with the richness of its memories and the suddenness and the completeness with which this chapter closed. Catholic Schema Religious and even theological aspects have had more than their usual share of the spotlight, Outstanding has been a controversy conducted outside a Jewish context but of great interest to Jews, namely the discussion over the Jewish document laid before the Ecumenical Council. The original motivation came during the historic papacy of John XXIII who entrusted the drafting to the Secretariat on Christian Unity headed by the equally progressive Cardinal Sea. However,

when the document came before the Council, it was immediately apparent that its passage would be far from simple. The formula, aimed at obliterating the accusation levelled at the entire Jewish people by the Catholic Church since the death of'Jesus, aroused the opposition of various groups within the Church; in particular prelates from Arab lands exercised their considerable influence to prevent the passage ol the document which they claimed would have an adverse effect on the Catholic Church in Moslum countries. The Vatican proved susceptible to these pressures and the decision was referred to the third session, due to commence shortly. Meanwhile the schema was referred back for reconsideration clauses have been removed or diluted while the document is likely to lose much of its force by being incorporated into a genera! one on Catholic relations with other non-Christian religions, e s p e c i a l l y Islam. Moreover it is also reported that responsibility for the document has been transferred from the Secretariat of the Liberal Cardinal Bea to the new Secretariat for Relations with NonChristians Religions which is headed by much more conservative forces. Although a number of Jewish organizations became involved in talks with Catholic circles in connection with this document, the most wide-spread attitude among Jews seems to be that this is essentially an attempt by certain Catholic circles to rectify a historical wrong which has stained the Church and (hat the passage of this schema at this moment is essentially a Catholic problem. •The Deputy" Meanwhile the controversy over Hochhut's play "The Deputy" has continued to rage and it would seem that a desire, to make a dramatic pronouncement on tlii.s subject together with the need to make a gesture after the failure of the Ecumenical Council to pass the Jewish document determined the Pope to include Israel in his visit to the Middle East in January. The meetings between the Pontiff and the President of Israel took place in Megiddo and Jerusalem and although the Pope was careful to avoid any implication of the recognition of the State of Israel, the very visit was fraught with actual and historical significance. In a strictly Jewish framework, the most fascinating religious dispute of the year emerged in England where the Chief Rabbi branded as heretical the views of Rabbi Louis Jacobs. Rabbi Jacobs' heresy has so far been confined within the limits of theology and he has not advocated any modification of traditional Jewish practice although he has developed an attitude towards them along lines previously expounded by German and American thinkers, particularly of the Conservative (Historical) School. This refuses to accept the Orthodox dogma of a* Divine revelation of the entire Torah of Moses but maintains the concept of a gradual evolution of Jewish law and tradition which contains human as well as Divinely-inspired elements. Rabbi Jacobs who is a considerable scholar and popular preacher was during the year reappointed to the pulpit of his former London congregation. When tha Chief Rabbi refused to confirm the appointment the congregation refused to accept his decision and broke, away to form a community outside the Chief Rabbi's jurisdiction with Dr. Jacobs as its spiritual leader. Perhaps the virulence with which Anglo-Jewry could devote itself to a controversy le-shem shamayim was one of the more encouraging portents of the year. John Adams was the first President of the United States to endorse the Zionist idea. H« did so in a letter to Mordecal Noah.

Morocco 'Exodus' Continues On The J e w i s h population of Morocco has dropped to between 70.000 and 75,000. according to community officials in Morocco. No exact count is available because thousands have been leaving each month and the departures continue. The last Government census gave the Jewish population in June. 19GI, as 15!).BOG, with 72,02(1 in Casablanca. The Jewish population of Casablanca is now estimated at 40,000. Estimates for other centres are at 30.000. Old Jewish communities established on the eastern .flanks of the Great Atlas, and in the subSahara area, have practically ceased to exist. These communities in the East were among the oldest in Morocco, predating by several centuries the arrival of Sephardi Jews from Spain, during and after the Arab reconquest in the 16th century. Generally only those Jewish families with big stakes in the country's commerce and industry are staying, together with a number of teachers, civil servants and professional people. Franklin Delano Roosevelt appointed a Jew to his cabinet, Morgenthau, and a Jew to the Supreme Court, Frankfurter.
