Boston (JTA) — A Ilaggadah for the Negro community, to be used at annual celebrations of the civil rights movement, is being prepared by a S o u t h e r n Christian Leadership Conference committee. Rabbi Meyer J. Strassfeld, of Congregation A g u d a li Israel, Dorchester, an Orthodox rabbi who is a member of the steering committee of the SCLC, is serving as a consultant for the Haggadnh. It will be patterned after the Jewish Ilaggadah and will contain Negro history, songs, prayer and symbols depicting both slavery and freedom. Members of the committee expressed the h o p e that the special Haggadah would help eliminate some of the anti-Jewish as well as anti-Negro sentiments which they said were present in some elements among Negro and white groups. The committee hopes to complete the project this summer.

The 1965'Jewish Philanthropies Campaign has reached the figure of $&)3,971.12, Lee Eisenstatt, General Chairman, announced. This represents one-half of the Campaign goal and reflects an increase of 7.3 per cent from the same contributors last year. "The Campaign results to date are hopeful and encouraging," said Mr. Eisenstatt, "Omaha Jewry is responding to meet the world-wide needs of the agencies which benefit from the Campaign." Mr. Eisenstatt paid tribute (o the chairman of the different groups in both the Men's and the Women's Divisions and to the workers for the increased pledging every group is showing. "With such leadership and dedication," he said, "we can reach the goal of 5500,000 which will enable us to meet our responsibilities to our agencies in Omaha and throughout, the United States as well as to our fellow Jews all over the world. "As we are about to observe the 17lh Anniversary of the State of Israel, which is the symbol of freedom and a life of dignity to hundreds and thousands of refugees, let us each consider whether we have done our part so that others may share our blessings." Mr. Eisentatt concluded.

Prime Minister E s h k o I announced to his people this week that the powerful Hawk groundto-air supersonic missiles which President Kennedy authorized Israel to acquire four years ago had arrived in Israel and had boon installed at specially prepared bases. During the interim, Israel officers and men were trained at Ft. Bliss, Texas, in the operation of the weapon. Mr. Eshkol, inspecting the missile sites this week, said, that "the Hawks will increase the Israel Army's deterrent force." He said they had- "been integrated into our military security line as its major deterrent weapon against the enemy air force." In Washington, the Air Force and Space Digest, publication of the U. S. Air Force Association, gave details of the Hawk's performance and potential. The authoritative publication revealed that the IT. S. Defense Department was requesting $11 million for development of an antimissile version of the Hawk. Such a development would provide Israel with means for intercepting nnd d e s t r o y i n g ground-to-ground missiles. Egypt has developed such m i s s i l e s capable of reaching Israel.

Ecumenical Council Draft Revised New York (JTA)—Leaders'of American Jewry were shocked and highly disappointed to learn that the draft declaration approved at the Ecumenical Council last November, exonerating the Jews of any collective responsibility for the crucifixion of Jesus, had been drastically revised by an ad hoc commission of four at the Vatican, despite the fact that it was adopted at the Council by a vote of 1,95)2 to 99. The declaration, as adopted last November against the oppoistion of ultra-conservative prelates and Bishops from the Arab states, had stated clearly that no blame for the death of Jesus could be attributed to the Jewish people alive in the clays of Jesus and "much less" to the Jews of today. However, that draft must be considered for final adoption at the next session of the Ecumenical Council, scheduled to convene September 17, before it is promulgated as official Catholic Church doctrine.

Jewish Organizations in U.S. React to Vatican Beveiopmenfs A.MKRICAN JEWISH COMMITTEE Declaring that the report on the rising opposition against the final adoption of the Declaration on the Jews "fills us with sadness and keen disappointment," Morris B. Abram, president of the American Jewish Committee, said: "The introduction of a political factor brought about by Arab pressures astonishes us because, only last May, Pope Paul VI, in an audience graciously granted to an American Jewish Committee delegation, himself emphatically expressed the view that this concern with Christian-Jewish relations was solely a religious matter. The theological aspect to which the Times correspondent alludes has received the most intensive scrutiny and deliberation since the Ecumenical Council was first conceived by the late Pope John XXIII of blessed memory. "This action received the universal acclaim of all men of good will the world over, regardless of religious persuasion. A new era in intcrreligious understanding was about to be born. We pray that the vast forces of enlightenment in the Catholic Church will prevail, and that the final action of the Ecumenical Council will forge an unbreakable bond of human brotherhood, so desperately needed in this strife-torn world." Mr. Abram declared. AMERICAN JEWISH CONGRESS Dr. Joachim Prinz, president of the American JewishCongress, declared: "The Vatican Council Schema on the Jews was drafted out of recognition that Catholic doctrine has, over the centuries, been a hidden but major cause of anti-Semitism. The decision of the Catholic fathers to draft a statement on the Jews should thus be seen not as an effort to exonerate the Jews from the guilt of deicide, but as a means of exonerating the Church from the role its teachings h a v e played in anti-Semitism and the horrors resulting from it. "As the Catholic Church examines the effect its teachings have had on the history of anti-Semitism, the Jewish people have no role to play but to await with patience and dignity that act of Catholic conscience which is represented in the Schema," Dr.' Prinz stressed.

Ive Texts Quebec City OTA)- Giles Bergeron, assistant deputy Minister of Education of the Province of Quebec, gave assurances that a third-grado reader, which had been used in French-language schools here and which depicted a Jewish father throwing his son in an oven for attending a Roman Catholic church, would not be used next year. The official's statement followed a complaint about the book by Rabbi Morris Halpern of Toronto. The text is one of three available to Q u e b e c ' s French-language s c h o o l.s, and can be bought in bookstores for 80 cents. Mr. Bergeron said that proper measures will be taken to ensure that the text, "My Third Reading Book," will not be used in future school years.

Jewry in the development of Israel through the Israel B o n d program, has been recognized by the community over an extended period of time. The late Governor H. Lehman for whom the award is named, was a distinguished supporter and leader of the Israel Bond program.

er Snf roduced in N X Albany (JTA)—A bill to outlaw inhumane handling of food animals prior to their slaughter, previously cleared with Orthodox Jewish leaders, was introduced with the backing of tho American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Thus far, there has been no formnl position taken on the bill by most Jewish organizations, which are expected to act on the issue later this month. The measure offers "an economical, defensible and persuasive law" to eliminate two features of slaughterhouse practice —the shackling and hoisting of conscious large beef animals in preparation for slaughter, and the use of manually operated hammers, sledges and pole axes, the ASPCA said in a memorandum accompanying the bill. The association said it felt that the proposed bill, which would go into effect January 1, 196G, overcomes the objections that have led to the defeat of more than a dozen humane slaughter measures in the Legislature since 1959.

Sunday School a Sham Says Leader; Urge* Return of Synagogue Ritual

Beth Israel

KLSENMIATII CHANGES MIND Abandoning long-held views on liberalism in synagogue ritual, the president of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, Rabbi Maurice Eisendrath, is now advocating a code of synagogue practice for Reform Judaism. To avert "self-destruction anarchy" Dr. Eisendrath proposes that Reform return to "symbols and forms" of more traditional Judaism. He explains his change of views in this month's issue of The National Jewish Monthly B'nai B'rith publication. Dr. Eisendrath writes that too many Reform temples are using false liberalism to mask "religious apathy and indolence." To combat this and to revitalize the role of the synagogue, he calls for: # #• * —More "dramatic and thrilling pageantry" in the synagogue by reinstalling abandoned prayers and practices and treating new ceremonials. —Greater cooperation instead of competition among Reform congregations in a community. —Stronger emphasis on Jewish education. It is "abundantly clear" (hat the Sunday School system of the Reform movement "is not sufficient to transmit a heritage and to build Jewish motivation and commitment," hi- declares. —More meaningful congregational programs of social and moral action.

cial security and health insurance. The housewife who adds up the total cost of a maid, plus the usual breakage of china, etc., frequently comes to the conclusion that it is cheaper to stay at home and do her own housework, than to go out and serve as teacher, nurse or secretary, badly though these are needed in the economy. Furthermore, the income tax authorities have still refused to recognize as a legitimate deduction the expense of maintaining a maid so the housewife can be free to take another job. There is no doubt that valuable skills and talents and experiences are lost to the country for this reason also. Visitors from abroad sometimes comment on the seeming paradox: a Jewish housemaid! Don't feel sorry for the girls. They earn full union wages; they are waited on hand and foot by the mistress of the h o u s e ; a threat to leave brings further personal attention; gifts rain on them for every possible occasion. In most middle class Israel households as elsewhere, if the truth be told, they are the dictators of the menage.

Ily M/Sgt. Herbert Rubin Offutt Air Force.Base Did you ever feel lonely in a crown? Last Friday evening while attending Sabbath evening services, I l o o k e d a r o u n d and couldn't find a friendly face! I saw f a m i l i a r face3, but no friendly ones. It was a strange feeling. Here I was among my "own people" and yet I had the feeling that the Rabbi, Cantor, Choir and my wife were the only real people at that service. This was not the first time I've had that feeling, and I g u e s s it will not be the last time either. 'On the Move' As a member of the armed forces, I must move every few years to a new "home." As a result, my family and I can't settle and develop roots in a community as we would like to. It's not too bad when we are stationed in an isolated area where social contact with Jewish community isn't possible. But situated as we are now, in a well populated Jewish Community, the desire to 'belong' is very great. • The feeling of loneliness is not unique with the military in the civilian community. The same feelings plague any new family moving into the established Jewish community. An Explanation ; The other day I heard a young woman explain why she chose' to remain "aloof" to newcomers in the community. "I hate to become attached to transients and then have them pack up and move on. It.creates.such a void when these friends move, it's just easier not tp get attached in the first place,"

Afraid of Favors My sister, the wife of a Rabbi whose congregation is on the west coast offered another explanation. "New families in the congregation" she said "often find it difficult to make social contacts b e c a u s e the 'established' families are afraid that the newcomers will lake advantage of them by asking favors. The real need Both explanations, perhaps, have some validity in some circumstances, but they are the extreme. M o s t newcomers, and particularly military personnel are not looking for favors or intimate relationships. We simply ask to be 'accepted' by the local Jewish community; to be invited to be part of a group and spend some time in social intercourse. Even with those of us in the military, there is the fear of being hurt if too much friendship is "given and then "Uncle Sam" decides he needs you elsewhere. How many "pieces" can you give before there is no more to give? Consequently the friendship curtain is dropped and not too many break the barrier. Irony One Friday evening after services, at a discussion session, the speaker for the evening said that our Christian friends wanted to know why we Jews were so hard to get to know. I wondered what our Christian friends would think if they knew how difficult it was for some of us to get to know each other. Money and time are the heaviest burdens of life, and the unhappiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to use
