Heart Transplant Consistent With Jewish Law Say Rabbis Johannesburg (JTA>—Rabbinical authorities here and in Britain have hailed the attempt of the transplant of a human heart, the operation performed on Louis Washkansky, of Cape Town, as an act that conforms to the over-riding consideration of Jewish law, the saving of a human life. Rabbinical opinion of the medical feat in the light of Jewish law was sought by the South African Jewish Times, whose editor cabled Dr. Immanuel Jakobovits, Chief Rabbi of the British Commonwealth and spoke to Chief Rabbi Bernard Casper of Johannesburg, Chief Rabbi Israel Abrahams of Cape Town and Rabbi Arthur Super, Chief Minister of the Reform congregation in Johannesburg, Dr. Jakobovits, regarded as a as Reform Judaism Is conWorld authority on Jewish medi- cerned, we are very much in cal ethics, declared in a cable favor of human transplant and to the paper that "Judaism can- autopsies and in fact anything not but enthusiastcally applaud which is likely to result in huthe medical triumph in service man life being saved however of human life." remote the chances.

Rabbi Criticized For Attending Spellman funeral New York (JTA)—The head of the Rabbinical Alliance of America (Orthodox), assailed the president of the New York Board of Rabbis this week for attending the funeral rites of tlve late Francis Cardinal Spellman here last week. Rabbi Bernard Weinberger, president of the Alliance, called the presence of Rabbi Edward T. Sandrew at the funeral an illustration of how "leaders of the Reform and Conservative camps emasculate religious commitments for the sake of superficial good fellowship." Rabbi Weinberger said that, while the Jewish community "should have been expected to offer its condolences on the passing of an important cliurclt leader, that should not include actual participation in the liturgical services #1 the church."

THE JEWISH
By Klialm Salpeter Jerusalem It was as if American:; suddenly discovered that S a n t a Claus was a card-carrying Chinese Communist. Israelis, who earlier swallowed with considerable restraint G e n e r a l Da Gaulle's pro-Arab policies and unilateral arms embargo, reacted with visceral vehemence to the clearly anti-Semitic overtones of his last press conference. Not since Stalin's time has a leader of a m a j o r power dared resurrect ghosts from the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. Not since Stalin's death have Jews here been reminded so strongly of the spector of racist bigotry hanging over their European brethren as when they heard the man who claims to represent France speak of the Jews as a "domineering, selfassured, 'chosen people,*-" with vague but dark hints about their wealth, international ties and influence on public opinion. Memories Suddenly people remembered •various stories, like that of tho editor of the French Resistance magazine, who—when presenting to General De Gaulle the first issue—was asked sharply: ''Why are there so many Jewish names here? Why are so many Jews in my entourage?" Or the Opiwral's r e m a r k when, as France's first Prime Minister after the war, he had an argument with M. Mendes-France, then one of the Jewish members of his cabinet: "It is a pity, but he is more Mendes and less France." Theories There were various theories for the aging general's remarks. More sophisticated or less, essentially they all add up to the assumption that such v i e w s about the Jews were always there in De Gaulle's mind and now they surfaced into the open. But why now? Some commentators attribute it to his advancing senility, which brings out prejudices imbued in childhood or youth and also breaks down controls and restraints superimposed by reason and l a t e r cultural i n f l u e n c e s . Others claim that what brought out such latent feelings was his
anger th.it French Jews dared to hold demonstrations in June against the General's pro-Arab and anti-Israel attitude. (By the way, French Jews—an assiniilationist c o in m u nity, by and large—actually played a minor role in those demonstrations. The moving spirits were North African Jews who emigrated to France a f t e r Tunis, Morocco and Algeria became independent, as well as the numerous non-Jewish friends oi Israel and the even more numerous plain Frenchmen who detest and dislike the Arabs . . . ) Still other maintain that the General was trying to pander to latent anti-Semitic sentiments among the F r e n c h peasantry and petit-burgeoisie to win support for his unpopular Middle East policy, widely s e e n by Frenchmen as ' - s t a b b i n g a friend in the back." Israel Interest* Be that 33 it may, the Israel government has managed so far not to be sucked into the vehement popular feelings against De Gaulle. Practically the en ; tire Israel Air Force as well as important s e c t i o n s of other arms of the Israel D e f e n s e Forces are based on Frenchmade equipment and weapons. Israel needs spare parts and as long as things are tolerable in that respect, she sees little wisdom in exacerbating the differences and—possibly—making it even easier for De Gaulle to do more harm to Israel's vital interests. On the General's orders, his representatives are already doing theif best to hurt Israel's interests w h e r e v e r possible. France at the United Nations often outbids the Soviets in putting pressure on some African delegates to vote for pro-Arab resolutions. France prevented favorable consideration of Israel's application for associate status in the European Common Market and later even vetoed a West German compromise proposal that the Common Market should sign a much less significant Preferential T r e a t ment Agreement with Israel, For Israel, all this means that she has to find a l t e r n a t i v e sources of supply for her vital

needs e v e n if the F r e n c h sources have not closed down. Israel must now try to obtain armaments and equipment from other friendly countries—though at the same time buying from France whatever is needed and available. But above all, the embargo imposed in June and all that happened since then convinced Israel of one thing; That she must strain her own resources to the utmost to become as selfsufficient in the production of armaments and strategic supplies as physically possible. The price involved may be the price of survival.

OMAHA HEBREW ACADEMY I>r«r Killtor:
y At the same limn, may I take this opportunity of writing a brief note alxxij our school whose existence, It would appear, is unknown to many member* of the community It is the only institution of its kind in the State of Nebraska--a Hebrew Day School'offering a complete curriculum of Hebrew and General Studies. Tim Omaha Hebrrtv Academy is an approved school. This means thai It is recognized, by the Nebraska Department of Education, and, consequently, in accordance with tin Stale's regulations, our teachers are all certified. In the general studios department, achievement tests show that tin- standard of education acquired hy our students i» much stove- lhat prevailing in the normal public school. Students who have graduated from the Academy have been placedJn advanced gradex In the Junior•Hipli Schools to which they were admitted. In Hebrew nineties, the Academy compares most favorably with some of the best Day Schools on this continent. Owing"to the individual nltention available, the standards reached are such that our students manage to achieve more than the normal requirement* of their grrnU and thus srs net b-jrd;r.cd with havinij J« aiirmi ciaraes Biter 4 P.m., and their home assignments do not require that they stay up late at night to Complete them. Th» Ut>n are not high, and where parents are unable to afford full tuition, scholarship! are awarded, 'itie budget or the school is presently provided, in the main, by voluntary contributions and scholarship endowments. It is expected that the roll as at present will materially increase during the course of this year. There are morn than 300 Jewish Day Schools today on the North American continent — many of these with a student lxxly of more than 1,000 on their rolls. This Is-most interesting since the Jewish Day School movement Is not more than tome-twenty year* old. In many of these schools the curriculum extends as far as college examination. These facts are indicative of the trend of Jewish communal life. Indeed tliev represent the much-sought:after solution to the problem of Jewish identity of which so many of our present day young people have been deprived. It is no wonder that our Jewish leaders in all walks of life experience a sense of defeat when confronted with tho problem of the "lost generation." Analyses and statistics bear clear witness to th» ever increasing number of Our young people that we are losing year by year on tlio college campus, due in the main, to their very weak knowledge, and, more often, due to their ignorance or their Jewish past and of their culture. It Is universally acknowledged today that only a well-laid foundation in Jewish learning can provide the mighty breakwaters and dikes as protection against the virulent waves of assimilation that threaten to engulf our youth and the ultimate siirvival or Judaism in this country. Such a protection and foundation can rarely, if ever, be acquired outside the walls of the Jewish Day School. There, nre many who say they can't see how this type of school fits into the American pattern and scene. "My son is. an American and he is proud of his country," we ara told. But this is no contradiction to his being educated as a Jew. Judaism mid Amrricanism are not upposlles. On the contrary, they supplement each other. The Hebraic mortar, more than anything else, has helped to cement the foundations of America nnd American Democracy. Tlirre is much dUrusalon these days on (he desirability of "cultural pluralism," by which is meant that as many cultural strands as possible should be woven into tho pattern of the overall national culture. "Cultural pluralism" is recognized as a distinct asset to democracy. Prominent educators and leaders of American thought hava stressed the advantages children derive from absorbing, in addition to the Amoricnn culture and legacy, the cultrual heritage of the national or religious minority to which they belong. Another language in addition 1o Knglish, and another culture in addition to our common American culture, are the alms of virtually all'progressive educator* Bnd thinkers. Tli<> boys and e'rl» hi the Hebrew Day School, where Hebrew nnd secular subjects nra .Integrated during the normal school day. get as good an American ••'luOTlion an the pupils of the public and elementary high schools, and frequently a better one. Day School graduates, nnd there ar<* already thousand* of them, excel in tho secular subjects. They carry off the highest marks in Regent's and college entrance examination!!. The scholastic records of these hoys and girls prove that an intensive Jewish educationIn no way interferes with the successful completion of the secular course of studies Hebrew Day School classes are smaller than those of the public schools. As a result, the pupils receive more individual attention. Some parents delude themselves in thinking that a few "afternoon hours a week of Jewish education is sufficient. This is not so. It is a fact, acknowledged with bleeding hearts by all honest Jewish educators, that "transient" Jewish education has failed to produce the kind of knowing Jew who can be relied upon*to assure Jewish survival. There is no getting away from it—Jewish education .requires* the whole child; a few hours a week will never do. There Is altogether too much to learn about Jews and Judaism to cram all that knowledge into a few lessons. Fortunately, many Jewish fathers and mothers are beginning to see the need for giving their children a.Hebrew Day School education. As a result, there is hardly n larger city in this country without such a school. It is interesting to note that most of the schools outside of New York were organized in recent years. I t Ii not only "un-Amerlcanlyx-d" parents with thick foreign accents who send their children to Day Schools. Many men and women are active in the Day School, movement although they aro American-born, college-bred and successful*professional and business people with a command of English many a Yankee might envy. Bines 1939 we Iiava lost fully six million of our brothers and sisters at the hands of the brutal Nazi fiends. Our numbers havebeen tragically depleted. More than one-third of our people have perished. Today, we American Jews are the largest and most prosperous Jewish community in the world. Numbering 6,000,000, we represent almost 0119 half of world Jewry. Obviously, this imposes* upon us the inescapable duty of assuming our share of the responsibility for Jewish survival, hand in hand with our brothers and sisters in the State of Israel. It H gratifying* to note that the image of our school In Omaha has recently been chancing. The increasing number of 'communally-minded men and women taking on active interest in the Academy augurs well for the future. As is the" experience in other cities, we look forward to the time when the leaders of our community will appreciate the purpose of our Jewish Day School, when they will acknowledge tha vole it is destined io share in our future survival and well being. Enroll your children now! A new school term will soon begin. I beg of you to enroll your children in your own Hebrew Day School. If your children's welfare and our Jewish people's eternity mean anything at all to you, you will not treat this matter lightly. Please, do give thought to • your children's Jewish future, which is your own future. yours vwy (tlnrorely, Kabul Joseph Vilftiukl Director et Education

By DKIUtIK MI5YEKS0N This is considered to he an era of honest enlightenment—a time when the force.') of instant communication, broad educational facilities, ;md m o r n money and leisure time blend to allow today's youth to fully examine the intangible aspects of life. As man and nature become more scientifically intertwined, it is difficult for many young people to depend on ready-made' answers to their questions concerning the nature of the relationship between man and God. They feel that through weighing and questioning beliefs, one may gain a realistic, deeper, and more personal insight into what faith really is. However, because of the more frequent experiences of personal loss, such as death, that adults undergo, many feel that an element of absolute faith is a vast comfort and almost a necessity in helping to contend with overwhelming trials nnd responsibilities.

"!n jour opinion is a degree of absolute faith more substantially rewarding than questionnlil« belief?" Edward Zellnsliy, Senior "Undoubtedly, an a b s o l u t e faith provides a greater deal of emotional and spiritual security than a less sure belief. However, the individual with an uncertain adherence to certain concepts and relationships is not as secure intellectually as the person with more flexible attitudes." *
* +
Frant'ie Hrotly, Senior "Absolute faith' is invariably more comfortable and in that way more substantially rewarding than anything seasoned with doubt. That does not mean, however, that even a deeply religious person would wish to give lip his.feelings of doubt or desire for perfect logic. The intellectual world of today forces us to question everything. And the fast-moving world of today creates a necessity for some degree of absolute faith. For me,
the only reasonably rewarding belief is a compromise between the two." * * * Skip Kaliane, Senior "To offer a legitimate answer, I would have to experience this "degree of absolute faith," This is not possible for me. I will always question my faith and beliels. As to the fact of absolute faith being more rewarding, there is no question. One must first realize, however, that to obtain an absolute degree of faith requires perfect harmony between body, spirit, and intellect, hi short . . . perfection . . . and as we all know, man will never be perfect. Tragic, isn't it?" •

N';m Scliulnian; Senior
'I am not really sure about putting this answer into words. I feel that a questioning faith in the long run is much more rewarding than an absolute faith. A person who is searching usually finds little evidential clueg that make religion itself more important and meaningful. I suppose, though, that in a way, a blind faith is important for a person who needs some type of moral and mental support. If the chips are down he has no question as to where God is or why things happened as they did."
