Jerusalem (JTA)—After almost five weeks of calm in the Suez area, where Israel holds the east bank of the waterway.while Egypt retainsthe west shore, serious fighting broke out in the region this week, Before the exchanges between the two sides were over, one Israeli soldier was killed and another was wounded, the Egyptians hit an Israeli helicopter attempting to pick up wounded, and the Israelis sank an Egyptian torpedo boat.

Y©eif-did Arab By CAKI, ALPKItT East Jerusalem—My name is Fund. I am 17 years old, and now entering the last year at St. George Secondary School. Yes. that's where I learned to speak English. I met Mr. Alpert in one of the alleys of the Old City. He was trying to figure out from a map where he was. So I became his guide. Israeli Tourists I've worked as a guide before, hut mostly with the Christian pilgrims who used to come here in large numbers. These new tourists, the Israelis, are a strange lot. They're not interested in the same things that interested tlie Christians along the Via Dolorosa. The first
place they head for is the Wall. Everybody calls it'the Kolel. Next they go bargain hunting. Some of my neighbors say that business has never been so good. Lots of the junk that had accumulated for years — and knick-knacks i m p o r t e d from Hong Kong or elsewhere—sell like hotcakes. The father of one of my friends has made a fortune selling key rings with Moussa Dayan's picture. The Israelis get a kick out of that: buying a Moussa Dayan picture from a Jerusalem Arab. Of course my friend charges more for the Dayan key rings. Peace With Israel This is the El Aksa Mosque. In here, on tins platform, surrounded by a railing, is the place where King Abdullah was killed in 1952. He wanted to make peace with Israel. That's why they killed him. Many of the old-timers who loved Abdullah still come here to pray on this spot. The murderer is still nlive. He lives somewhere in Jordan. They say that if Hussein tries to make peace he will be killed too. I am a Muslim, but here in Jerusalem Muslim and Christian Is all the same. We live together.

We can go back nnd forth between the two sections of the city freely—without passes, without check, without interference. It is like one city. It is beautiful over there.

Although it may sound paradoxical, the main obstacle to the spread and growth of Judaism in America nuiy be the synagogue. Today, we equate a good .Jew with synagogue meinbiTship. We deplore Die fact that Jews do not attend services, and we consider Judaism as dyin;; in America because ritual lias only a slight hold .on even those Jews who are affiliated. By these criteria, the vast majority of American Jews have developed a sense of guilt. Between their intellectual honei.ly and their inability to conform to what the synagogue as such demands of them, they have become convinced that they art; outciusts, that in effect, they really are bad Jews. Yet this very same Jew lias a natural interest in knowing about himself and his past. lie will be inclined to read Jewish history, to want liis children to know about Judaism, to see them married by a rabbi and he rarely fails to bring them into the Abrahamitic covenant through circumcision. This Jew feels that he is not an observant Jew because he cannot bring himself to appreciate services or to participate wholeheartedly in them. The idea of organized religion is something he, as a modern intelligent person, does not want to he a part of. He considers himself alienated, and although he is uncomfortable, he feels he can do nothing about it. It is he on one side and the .synagogue on the other. He cannot in all honesty yield. The synagogue on the other hand feels that it cannot yield cither. And thus we have the condition today which consigns our intellectuals to n pale somewhere outside of the organized Jewish community. There are two choices. Either we forget about the Jewish intellectual or we can accept the facts of life as the majority of American Jews live them today. Fine, upstanding citizens, who fulfill their obligations towards humanity, and do not turn their backs on their identity. They want Judaism to thrive, but what contribution to society they make they make outside of the synagogue. Practically all American Jews will soon be college educated. They are an intelligent, sophisticated group, aware, alert, culturally on.a high level, and driven by Jewish ethics to improve the world, even though they, may not recognize that this atavistic impulse operates subconsciously within them. This educated American Jew Would like to make his own contribution tu civiiizuiiun, but he has the feeling that he is not making that contribution as a Jew, only as a member of the human race. This is because he cannot accept the synagogue. It is either that or remain outside the Jewish fold. Yet this man very likely lives by the highest Jewish precepts— belirl in the worth of (ho human being, belief even in the coming of (he messiah—the time when peace will reign universal and unity proclaimed everywhere. Almost everything he does is ;;ood Jewish practice—except one—synagogue affiliation and parlicipa-' tion, ' ' . ' . . . The choice really may not be two. It may be only one. The concept of what is an American Jew must be changed. It must be changed to envelop both the affiliated and the unaffilialed. If the synagogue is to remain as an institution contributing to the development of Judaism, it must enlarge its scope, and it must help to bring about a correction of the popular concept of what is a Jew, this concept which bars the thinker, the persons devoted to civil rights, those who seel: to make this a better world to live in. The Jew of today wants to return. He has become disillusioned by the inadequacy of .intellectual life to provide the answers he seeks. But he is disillusioned more by the Jewish life about him. The question is—can the synagogue receive him? —Jewish Post and Opinion

Rabbi.Bunam once saw a man seemingly on the brink of drowning. He shouted at the man; "Give my greetings to the Leviathan," (The great fish of the after world.) The drowning man half smiled and thereby regained presence of mind and was able to hold on until aid arrived.

liy Elialm Salpi'ler In the past 2,0(10 years, fate did not provide Israel troops with many opportunities to exercise the art and science of occupation forces. True, alter the war of liberation in 19-IK'li), Israel put some Arab inhabited parts of the country under military government, but this was more an internal security measure arid the population in those areas consisted of full-fledged Israel citizens who voted and were elected to the Knesset, whose economic, municipal, cultural and educational affairs, fell under the jurisdiction ol the; same civilian authorities as thos* of all Jewish and Arab inhabitants living in other areas not under military government. True, also, after the Sinai campaign of 1056-57, the Ga/.a Strip and some areas in the Sinai Peninsula were for a few months occupied areas under full military government. But at that time it was clearly a transitory arrangement in which both the occupying and occupied knew its temporary nature. Moreover, the occupied areas of Gaza and Sinai of 10 years ago consisted only of about 100,000 regular Arab' population (in addition to Arab refugees living in United Nations-administered camps).
• • • • . .
New Problems Now, however, the situation is entirely different, because Israel holds this time, in addition to the Gaza Strip and the practically empty Golan Heights taken from Syria, the entire Western Bank. Whereas the Egyptians always treated the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip as nonEgyptians under military rule •and in the whole of Sinai there are only about 30-40,000 inhabitants), the Arabs of the Western Bank were full-fledged Jordanian' citizens. In contrast to the low level of Gaza Strip in-

Kacli year Israel issues a set of Festival Stamps to celebrate the Jewish High Holidays. According to word from (he Israel Philatelic Agency in New York the theme of (he Festival Stamps for 1%7 (5728 in the Jewish calendar) will be die Scrolls of Law, or Torah. The Festival set consists of five stamps with denominations of 12, 15, 35, 40 and 80 agorols, and will he issued on September.13, I!l(i7. Each stamp pictures a different, highly decorative set of Scrolls. Tabs show an open Scroll with Iliblical quotations In Hebrew. The set was designed hy E. Wcishoff and will he printed by photogravure in multicolor with gold and silver.
habitants, Palestinians of the Western 'Bank have a high percentage of their own intelligentia—doctors, lawyers, bankers, high school teachers and other university graduates. Thus, the population of the Western Bank has a fairly broad middle class with highly developed national consciousness and a sizable indigenous national leadership. This, in itself, makes the problems of occupation much more complicated. In addition, (here is a world of a diiference between the tasks and problems of military occupation involving a relatively small number of former enemy citizens and that involving about one million former enemies. The very difference in numbers demands'much larger efforts just to provide for the internal security of the occupied areas. Also, the small, relatively primitive and largely self-sufficient agricultural economy of the indigenous population of the Gaza Strip did not present the Israel occupation authorities with any serious economic problems. Economic Problems ' The Western Bank economy is also mostly an agricultural one, but it was closely tied to that of the eastern bank of Jordan. The agricultural surpluses, mainly of fruit and vegetables, were exported to the eastern bank and also to other Arab countries, as far as to the oil sheikdoms of Katar and Kuwait. Many of the educated West Bank Arabs found employment in other Arab countries and on the eastern bank, sending back part of their pay-checks ^o i relatives and families left behind. The West Bank also had a fairly large number of tourists from other . Arab countries. Though there are some ad tobcj arrangements now, most 'of Die' economic, problems of the'Western Bank now must. be. shouldered by the Israel occupation: authorities. Political Questions But the most, important question of the^ Occupation now is political. Itvfitenis from the uncertainty ;o£ .the' long-term future of the: occupied area, The Israel Government made only one thing clear: there will be.no'; retreat from any of the occupied areas without peace talks with the Arab governments. This implies, of course, that under peace treaties at least some of the occupied areas will cease to be under Israel rule. Again, the major Issue Is the
Western Bank; which parts of it would Israel relinquish in exchange for a peace treaty and which would be annexed to Israel under border rectification arrangements? Would the rest of the territory be handed over to Jordan or would there be a separate Arab Palestinian state or some kind of condominium of both Israel ami Jordan over a semi-autonomous Arab Palestine? T h i s uncertainty naturally, Jiniits the possibilities of Israel in regard to taking steps which could prejudice a final settlement. It also makes the local inhabitants rathe;- reluctant to cooperate fully with the Israel authorities, lest they have to account if the area should revert to Jordanian rule. Under such circumstances, normalization of Israel-Arab relations in the occupied areas is extremely difficult, and some cases of Arab non-cooperation practically unavoidable. Israel is now handling the situation with what some describe as a policy of an "iron fist in a velvet glove." and the relatively small number of incidents so far is a mark of success of this policy.

Zeitlin) claim that the coffin as such w;H originally used only a a means of transportation when the urava was far away from the place where the individual died. Thus Joseph, whose remains bad to be transported from Egypt to Israel through 40 years of travel, had his body placed in some type of coffin. Many Jews who lived outside of Jtidea and wanted their remains taken to Judea for burial, wore brought to their eternal resting place in coffins. Some, who wanted to be buried alongside their parents or in family buria! plots, had their rcnuiins transported in the coffin. Eventually, people began using the coffins ai containers in which the dead were actually buried. It is intere.stin;; to note (hat many observant Jews of our generation insisted that while they be transported to their burial lot in a coffin, Out tlii-y nevertheless br- removed from the coffin and placed in the grav? without the coffin. In such a case the coflin was usually burntvl since its use was prohibited once it had already been used by tha corpse for which it was originally acquired.
