In announcing the change in the summer publication schedule, Mr. Monasee noted that for the past 9 years the Jewish Press suspended publication from the second week in July until the last week in August. "This was done," he said, "as, a matter of financial expediency as well as from the standpoint of lower reader interest during the summer months when community activities are at a minimum.

Her indictment of the Soviet Union was made .as she explained why Israel opposed the Four Power talks on the Middle East and was prepared to discuss diplomatic differences with friendly powers even if Israel's image abroad suffered as a consequence. "Russia is among the Four Powers," she said, "and it is common knowledge that the Six-Day War would not have happened but for. Russia. Every Israeli boy that was killed in the war was killed with Russian weapons and every Israeli boy that is killed now is killed with Russian weapons. We do not accept Soviet Russia as a neutral arbitrator." Big FOOT Talks

fa an address to the Foreign Press Association here, Mrs. Meir dismissed Big Four and American-Soviet efforts to find a Middle East settlement as m a k i n g no contribution to peace. At this and other forums, Mrs. Meir reiterated Israel's fear that the Four Powers were preparing to impose a settlement inimical to Israel's security. She said Israel suspected that the UJ5r might be maneuvered into agreeing to concessions at Israel's expense in return for Soviet moves in Viet* nans and strategic arms limitation.

Draft Protest Backed by Nine Rabbinical Students PHILADELPHIA (JTA)—Nine students at the Reconstructionist Rabbinical College support a fellow student who turned in his draft card to his local draft board and disavowed his divinity student exemption, it was reported by the Jewish Exponent, local weekly newspaper. Dr. William Chomsky, a faculty member, and Rabbi Arthur Gilbert, dean of the college, signed the statement in support of Daniel Siegel which reads, "We believe that his action is entirely consonant with the Jewish tradition which regards each human life as equal in value to all of creation. His willingness to risk severe legal consequences for his act is in keeping with the Jewish teaching that an individual must be willing to die himself rather than commit murder/ even at the command of his government. "We recognize that Daniel Sjegel's action is representative of the action of thousands of

Jewish young men, who in conscientious oppo- • sition to an immoral draft, have refused to cooperate any longer with the Selective Service System. For many of these men, as for Daniel, the Jewish reverence for life and moral concern lies at the root of their position of conscience. "We support Daniel Siegel and all those who have chosen to resist rather than to submit to a system which demands that they abdicate their inalienable rights of conscience. We believe that the Jewish community must stand behind its young men who exercise the traditional Jewish right to refuse to participate in an immoral war, even when > the U.S. Government refuses to recognire that right. In the choice between immoral obedience or moral disobedience of the laws of any state, we must give our allegiance to the higher law of moral conduct in the interests of human life and peace."

N.Y. Liberal Jewish Voters Voice Views on Racial Issues NEW YORK (JTA)—A majority of Jewish voters in New York City who describe themselves as "liberal" believe that the city has moved "too fast" on racial issues and 70 per cent of them believe that anti-Semitism is rising here. The findings were based on a survey conducted by the Daily News on the eve of, New York's mayoralty primaries. According to the News, S3 per cent of Jewish voters think the.. pace ol aty action on racial issues is too last compared to Si per cent of the Irish and SO per cent of Italian voters, two ethnic groups considered far more conservative than Jews on most issues. . The News said that seven out of 10 Jews thought anti-Semitism was increasing but only four out of 10 Negroes concurred, the smallest percentage of any group to express that viewpoint. The News concluded that strains over race relations and the issue of anti-Semitism will nave a serious impact on almost every problem that the winner of New York's mayoral election must face. The News survey showed that Mayor John V. Undsey had lost a substantial amount of the Jewish voter support he had when he defeated Abraham Beame, a Jewish candidate, for mayor in M65.

Immigrants;

Israel's Greatest Joy And Biggest Problem "The Law of Return—Israel's answer to the immigrant quota system practiced by many nations—has provided thelitllenation with a population as diverse in background as any country in history. It has also strained the Israeli economy. It has brought peo-. pie to populate development towns and kibbutzim, and it has caused some overcrowding in cities like Haifa, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. • "The Law of Return" is the Israeli immigration law which entitles any Jew In the Diaspora to become an Israeli citizen simply by migrating to the state. Since becoming independent on May 15,1948, Israel has absorbed more than one and a quarter million Jews and its total population—Jewish and non-Jewish—now stands at about two and three quarter million people. Last year, Israel absorbed 30,000 immigrants. This year, it will welcome about 40,000. To understand what these figures mean to so small a nation, we can relate them to the United States: Were the U.S. to absorb Immigrants at the same rate, it would take In three million immigrants each year—a figure greater than the total immigration to the United States during the past 10 years. Much of the money spent to bring Jews out of countries of distress and oppression into Israel is philanthropic money raised by the United Jewish Appeal. The UJA is the American Jewish community's major channel of funds for overseas aid; Since its inception in 1939, it has raised more than two billion dollars for humanitarian purposes.

Rabbi Krause quoted as a significant judgement the view of a contributor to the official publication of the Southern Regional Council that "it is possible in the South for a, man to be what he is, speak what he believes and stand up to segregationist hatred as our Rab-. bi, Charles Mantinband, has stoutly demonstrated for 15 or 16 years in darkest Alabama or Mississippi . . . Rabbi Mantinband survives his environs so handsomely, despite his freely and frequently expressed view that all men are equal, because he sees no man as his enemy . . . If you are good enough, you can say and do what you believe anywhere." • Rabbi Krause concluded that "if we must condemn those who minister" to the 200,000 Jews in the South, "it should not be because they have not been outspoken liberals, Jead* ing the picket lines in their Deep-South communities. It should be because they have not done what it was within their power to do." He asserted that ''there is only so much passivity which can be excused by the atmosphere" of the Southern community hi which a rabbi serves.''

By Mickey Gerelick New Year's edition, Without the summer break what would become of the New Year's edition, and who would clean the yearly accumulation of cobwebs at my house? The'Press Committee said, "Hire a Journalism student to help over the summer," and this really made me nervous. There are definite advantages to being the sole staff member, particularly when you've had no Journalism training. As long as the paper got out, no one had to know the unprofessional way I went about getting the job done. How would I co e with a Journalism student who knew more than I did? I wished I had taken Journal- . ism in school instead of Homemaking. The Journalism training would sure come in handy now, and the cobwebs at home testified as to how little good the Homemakihg course did for me. --.-—— But things have a way of working out. An ad in the Jewish Press resulted in the application and hiring of Susan Lincoln, a' 1969 Journalism graduate of the University of Nebraska. Susan will be working with me all summer, and will take complete charge during the t ime I'm battling the cobwebs. I can breath easier knowing she has signed a teaching contract for the fall. At least my job isn't permanently threatened by a younger, prettier, college-trained replacement, and I'm bound to learn a few things from her over the summer. In addition, Mike Meiches, a Junior Journalism student at UNO will be in charge of advertising for both the New Year's and regular issues. How about that. Overnight I became a managing editor in spite of my decision to take Homemaking instead of Journalism. At any rate, I'm looking forward to working with these young people in the weeks to come. The New Year's edition as well as the summer issues should reflect their bright young thinking. As for the generation gap, there's no problem. If you add both their ages together, they're almost as old as I am. That's how the summer shapes up from where I sit. Now all you have to do is cancel your summer vacations t stay home and read the Jewish Press; and most important,, give us your advertising support.

Quiz Box

By BABBI SAMUEL J. FOX QUESTION: Why is the Western Wall considered to be so important tojhe Jewish people? — ANSWER: At least six reasons are advaneed-Jn answer to this question. First, this, being the remnant of the wall of the Temple, constitutes the only replica we have of the Jerusalem Temple which was the focal point of Jewish life through many centuries. Secondly, many Jewish scholars predicted that this wall will never be destroyed, consequently endowing it with eternity. Third, this was the spot towards which the prayers of Jews throughout the world are directed by Jewish tradition. Fourth, historians tell us that the fighting men of Israel sanctified their lives and paid with blood for every stone of the destroyed temple; this remaining wall stands as a monument to this great heroism. Fifth, Jews have kissed and cried over the stones in this wall for 1,500 years. Sixth,'this wall, as a part of the Holy Temple, still retains its holiness even in its state of destruction. QUESTION: Why Is it forbidden to eat anything In the presence of the dead? ^: : 1 ANSWER: Doing things in the presence of the deceased which are matters generally restricted to the living, is considered by the rabbis under the general category of "making sport of the poor" an act which is condemned by the Bible. Honor and respect must be given to a person, especially when he is disabled because of poverty or because of death. Some authorities claim that one should not even smoke in the presence of the dead. Other, restrictions forbid one to study Torah in the presence of .the deceased, or to wear Tefillin or Tzitizis (fringes) which show openly. These are things which the deceased can no longer do and when the living do them in the presence of the corpse it is like teasing or embarrassing the dead. Some say almost the whole of Judaism's ethics;vis-a-vis man's attitude to his fellow man is based upon the principle of honoring one's fellow man because he is a reflection of the image of the Creator. This applies both after death as well as during one's life.

Reform Leaders Probe 'Relevant Involvement' New York (JTA)—An "emergency task force of Reform Judaism" to determine how Reform Jewry can be "more meaningful involved and more effectively active in the urban crisis of our country" will be established by the Union of American Hebrew Congregations by decision of its board of trustees. Earl Morse, chairman of the board, will head the task force which is to report back to the board in the fall.

ACLU Appeals for Rockwell's Burial R i c h m o n d (JTA) — The American Civil Liberties Union filed an appeal in the fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals this week contending that the Army's refusal to p e r m i t a Nazi-organized burial service of the ashes of George Rockwell, slain by a fellow Nazi in an Arlington, Va., parking lot in 1967, was unconstitutional. Rockwell's cremation remains are still in the hands of the American-Nazi party; The Army had ruled that the proposed funeral in a national cemetery in Culpepper, Va., was improper because symbols. of the Nazi movement, or any other political affiliation, are not permitted in the cemetery.? The Army's contention was upheld by the U.S. District Court in Alexandria, Va.

In all of 1968, 1,200 required such services. The increased number of arrivals for settlement here was attributed by Mr. Harris to increasing anti-Semitism in some E a s t e r n Europe and Arab countries. Many of the refugees, he said, arrived hero without funds or possessions and required* immediate financial assistance. During the first four months of 1969, it was reported, the NYANA vocational services department aided nearly 800 newcomers with job counseling, training, placement and intensive English language courses.
