the proposed UN envoy means to make a first-hand study. Syria, it'was learned, did not even answer the United Nations' request. Mr. Thant announced his intention to nominate a special representative almut>t on tha eve of the reconvening of the General Assembly last spring. He has not, however, announced the appointment. It wax recalled that a special envoy representing the Secretary-General, Nils GorenGussing, who had been similarly charged, completed his mission last December without having been ^remitted by either Egypt' or Syria to study the .Jewish situation in those countries. (According to a report in Paris tlje E g y p t i a n , Syrian and Jordanian Governments have also relused to allow Karl Brimnel. a Swiss, special representative of UNESCO, to inspect cultural properties belonging to the Jews now sequestered in these states. The Israel Government had asked UNESCO to inspect 97 such properties in t h e s e states and in Lebanon, but only Lebanon permitted the UNESCO delegate to make an inspection. The other three governments refused to give him access to the properties, M. Brimnel disclosed here.)

Stuart Symington, Missouri Democrat who formerly served as Air Force Secretary, said that Israel i3 in far greater danger than Iran yet the Executive Department refuses to sell Israel the same Phantoms provided to Iran. He suggested that an Administration decision to keep the Shah "happy" may have been influenced by the oil companies with investments in Iran. Kiplanution Paul C. Warlike, Assistant Secretary of Defense for International Security Affair.), said that the decision was taken to sell Phantoms to Iran on easy credit terms to help Iran defend herself against Egypt, Iraq and Syria. The Senators insisted that Israel was in far greater danger from the radical Arab states than was Iran. Mr. Warlike said the Stale Department had recommended and approved the Iranian transaction.

Mr. Warntke said tha Israeli Government'found U.S. arms sales to Jordan preferable to Soviet arms sales to the Hu»sein regime. Defense Department officials later explained that the defense establishment has no objection to selling Phantoms to Israel but that President Johnson has failed to ask the State Department to issue the necessary export licenses. They said that Johnson is apparently unconvinced that Israel really needs the Phantoms at this time.
On Israeli Ship Dover, England (JTA)—British police and harbor authorities are preparing to board the Isr a e l i freighter Avocadocore, when she arrives here in response to reports of an attempted mutiny aboard. The 5,955-ton motorship. owned by Maritime Fruit Carriers Ltd. of Haifa, in bound from Guatemala to Finland with a cargo of bananas. A company spokesman in London denied that there was a mutiny but admitted that there was u n r e s t on the ship over demands by some crew members for a ''free trada union." The Israel Seamen's Union is affiliated with Histadnlt, Israel's labor federation. The Israel Embassy in London confirmed that 11 member.* of the Avcesdosore'3 crew had "mutinied." but Israel Consul Raanan Si van told the press here that the crew members had "gone on strike" as tha vessel approached the English Channel. Ha said a company representative was due here from Israel with instructions to replace the 11 raen. A representative of the Israel Seamen's Union was also due here from Haifa. According to maritime law, a refusal to obey orders at sea is tantamount to mutiny.

for rcligfous purposes at $45 billion. The term 'religiouslyused" referred to the distinction between such property used for religious activities and other property of religious institutions, such ;is business enterprises they either own or control. Contributions Another report on the program concerned a CBS survey finding that the general public. Congress and clergymen generally approved the idea that religious institutions should make voluntary contribution in lieu of taxes. That proposal was endorsed this week at the Tilth annmtl convention of the Central Conference of American Rabbis in Boston. The Reform rabbinical body called on its C75 Reform synagogues to make such contributions to local governments. Such contribution.1;, the delegates agreed, should be made lor such services as sanitation, police and fire protection and use of water.

"I have, for a long time, been interested in involving the Omaha Jewish community in the KCRAC process. I know the kind of leadership Omaha produces and the resources available. Omaha cannot be an isolated Jewish community. It's size, importance and influence should be part of the national picture; pooling with other Jewish communities its resources for the understanding and solution of our nation's pi'ubteifia."

QUESTION: What Is the reason for erecting a monument over the grave of the deceased? " ANSWER: Placing * monument over the grave of a deceased pperson seems to be of ancient origin. g The Bible relates that Jacob ol i(":oaoci= s e t UD a pillar i v e r t h e ..Brave* of Jii p 335:261 5 2 6 1 IIn B i b l i l literature l i t Biblical we read that either" stones were" piled up over the grave or a distinctive sign was made at the site of the grave. There seems to have been a number of reasons for this. One is that placing stones over the grave was a means of protecting th» remains from animals that might dig it up. Another is that the tombstone serves as a. reminder to passensby that a corpse is burjea here and that one who goes near the grave would become impurified. Furthermore, it is pointed out that 83 was the case in the crave of Rachael, the tombstone served as a marker to identify the grave so that the descendants of the deceased would know •vrtiere to come to pray at the grave when they faced danger and /or despair. QUESTION: Why la it customary to wait a year befor* dedicatlog the tiatosixme'! ANSWER: According to some, the reason for erecting tha tombstons is to offer an act of remeinbranceiorlha dead, llierofar* erecting it befora fhe year is over is an insult to iha deceased because it itsdicates that a physical act or marker is tiecessary to T«member him and that otherwise he would Tie forgotten.

How will Jewish life in the United States laaU in the next decade? Jewish federations and welfare funds are now studying this question in order to plan and implement whatever new programs they may need to respond to changing conditions. Predictions of 'things to come" in American Jewish lifs during the next decade are being discussed and examined. It 13 assumed that leaders in Jewiali communal affairs will increasingly be offered leadership positions' in the general community—and Jewish 1 organisations and institution, ! will encounter more competition for the time and attention of the Increased federal funds—via Social Security payment*, Jvtedicare and Medicaid—will make it possible for a number of Jewish hospital to receive full payment for patient services and they will not have operating deficit)). Arena of C»B<*ra Jewish communities will be more concernsd with matters of Jewish identification, J e w i s h
commitment and with intermarriage. Jews will be predominantly native-born, university-educated, economically middle-class and affluent—but not without poor. The total number of Jews may not change, but the age distribution of the Jewish population will show some marked changes. There will be a higher proportion of older persons. In come communities, the proportion of Jews 65 years of age and older will move from 10 per cent to 15 per cent. The communities will beRin to differentiate between the ''younger aged" ol under 80 ana the "older aged1' •of those over 80. Jewish adults will have mora tune for leisure activities and will have more money to «pend on leisure activities. Some will show greater interest in Jewish activities which reflect higher levels of cultural and spiritual expression, They wilt be dissatistiEd with existing leisure time opportunities. Some will •show williDgness to participate in activities conducted under sectarian auspices. Parents will increasingly want to have their children participate in two kinds of activities; l> thosa conducted under nonsectarian suspicts in which children of all faiths and races could "live together harmoniously;" 2> activities under Jewish sponsorship, with participant* drawn primarily from the Jewish community oo that adolescents could do Ttioro dating within the Jewish group.
