United Natwns,TNiYTTJTAT —Secretary-General U Thant expressed "regret a'hd concern" at the hanging in Iraq. He expressed fears that "the repercussions from this unhappy development will also be likely to impede efforts toward a peaceful settlement of the conflict situation in the Middle East. A statement issued by a UN spokesman noted that as soon as Mr. T h a n t had l e a r n e d of the trials, he "asked the permanent representative of Iraq to convey to his Government the Secretary-General's deep concern about them, and particularly about the impact they would have on public opinion both inside and outside of Iraq." The statement said t h a t "in the exercise of his good offices on h u m a n i t n rian grounds the Secretary-General did not q u e s t i o n the right of the Government of Iraq to put on trial any of its own citizens, as were ap-' parently all of t h o s e convicted, nor could he attempt to apprafse the validity of the charges."

New York (JTA)—American Jews reacted with outrage to the execution of nine Iraqi Jews, and five non-Jews, by the Baghdad Government on charges of spying for Israel. Arthur J.

The Night They Buried The Chaplain (Pldur* ot right.)
. B y Rabbi Maurice Lamm Morton Singer, an Orthodox Rabbi from the East Side of —New York, arrived in Chu Lai —r-inr October,—1968" to-begin his work as an Army chaplain in the I Corps area of Vietnam." Six weeks later, on December 17, with" Haiiukkah candles in his pack, the rabbi fell to a flaming death in his transport plane which crashed into the underbrush of Vietnam. He was 32. ~ Morton Singer was an unusual man. He volunteered for military chaplaincy service. He I volunteered'for non-combatant j duty in the Six-Day War in Is;: racl. He volunteered ftr paratroop school. He volunteered for ; Jangle school in Panama. He volunteered to serve in Vietnam. He wanted to live on the highest level of excitement. He died e shattering death on a pyre ' with 13 American soldiers, and '1 he was buried on January 1, in the middle of the night on the 1 Mountain of Rest, a hilltop that borders Jerusalem, the city of his love. ,. In Vietnam, unlike in other wars, there are no rear lines in which to take cover. Every man is his own front line. The Jewish chaplain in Vietnam is truly a "sky pilot." He flies to Da Nang to Fhu Bai to Chu Lai, At each stop he dispenses comfort, advice, incentive, religious service and a touch of home. To do this, his jeep must travel over, roads which may be mined and the cause of sudden death. He must board a plane which may be shot at while taking off and demolished while in the air. He-holds his service in the field against a background of constantly clattering machine guns. A rabbi" who is to serve on a battlefield that may become an
instantaneous^ graveyard must have two qualities above all, strength and sweetness. Without these he is either no rabbi or no soldier. Rabbi Singer was strong and he was sweet. He was a brownbelt karate expert, who taught judo, and was once the Eastern Intercollegiate W e i g h t-Lifting champion of the United States. He believed that physical fitness was a worthy part of spiritual strength. But strength alone surely would not have brought Rabbi Singer to the mud and jungle of Vietnam. He was gifted with the ability of being sweet—dedicated to inspiring men to the gentle and good life, His brawn was equaled by his soft-hcartedness. It was my sad privilege to escort the remains of this strong, gentle man to his burial place in Jerusalem. I represented the United States Army and the National Jewish Welfare • Board and, more than all else, I represented the tribute of American Jewry to a man who died while helping American Jews. What I experienced was surely ' the loneliest moment in my career. I had presided over all too many funerals in circumstances that were sometimes very tragic. But this surpassed them all. Night Burial Chaplain Singer was buried at night because of the biblical injunction that the dead must not linger beyond the day of death, /and since the plane, carrying the body arrived too late for a daylight burial, the funeral took place at midnight. The coffin was draped with a tallit and the American flag and it was escorted by the American military attache, representatives of the Israeli Army chaplaincy, the Burial Society consisting of 15 bearded Jews from Jerusalem, a handful of relatives who

Israeli Chief Rabbi Explains Position on 'Who Is a Jew?' Jerusalem fJTA) — Israel's Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi, Isser U n t e r m a n n , cited Biblical sources this week to bolster the chief rabbinate's position on the question of. who is a Jew. The rabbis insist it can be o n l y someone born of a Jewish mother, in or out of wedlock, or who has undergone conversion rites. Rabbi- Untermann addressed more than 1,000 Orthodox rabbis and judges of religious courts from Israel and several foreign countries \who gathered at a conference ,to uphold the Orthodox tenet that Halacha—Jewish religious law—must prevail in determining who is a Jew. A case that may decideJhat issue for Israelis is presently before the Israel Supreme Court. Rabbi Untermann c l a i m e d that a child of a non-Jewish mother had no "child-father" relationship to his natural father nor did he have a brother or sister relationship with children born to the same father by a Jewish woman. As an "example," he cited the Biblical story of Amnon and Tamar, children of King David, who were not forbidden to marry, according to the scholars, because Tamar was conceived
before her mother converted and was therefore not the sister of Amnon. Tfie~~5ephardic Chief Rabbi, Itzhak Nissim insisted that no distinction could- be~drawn-be« tween religion and nationality, which, in the context of Israeli law refers to ethnic origin. But such a distinction is the nub of the case of Lt. Commander Benjamin Shalit, an Israeli naval officer who is suing to have his Israel-born children registered as Jews by nationality even though their mother is non-Jewish and professes no religion. The. Ministry of Intexio.r, which has jurisdiction over birth registration and identity papers and is headed by a minister of the Orthodox religious bloc, refused. C o m m a n d e r Shalit brought his case to the Israel Supreme Court which currently has it under consideration.
