Omaha—At a recent meeting of the Omaha Council of Rabbis, the following statement was issued in response to recent wide-spread publicity aimed at conversion of Jews. "Members of the Jewish community have recently received mailings, read a number of newspaper articles and experienced personal approaches in an effort to convert Jews to some new forms of Christianity or to pseudo Jewish-Christianity. "Secure and committed Jews y/'Al not be concerned by this growing missionary activity. Surveys have indicated that the success of these activities has been extremely minimal. Publicity to the contrary is simply not true and has been generalized from a few sensational cases. "With possible exceptions, if any, those Jews who have become part of this movement are either temporarily-•Impressionable youth, Jewlshiy uninformed, emotionally disturbed, or perhaps reacting to some unhappy life experience.

Hassel issued guidelines that "on songs or music programs that have a significance for a particular religion should be performed during the period which coincides with the specific religious celebration." Charging Dr. Franck with having taken "a sound principle" and "beat it into the ground," . Kilpatridk wrote: "A better approach might be to urge the Jewish children to join in the singing. Many of them have beautiful voices. They wouldn't be corrupted by the experience and it probably would improve the chorus." Dr. Franck protested that "public schools have no right to coerce 'any child into participating in any religious ceremony or religious hymns which are inconsistent with that child's or that child's parents' religious conscience." The Jewish leader added: "There is no question of these particular hymns being Christian religious hymns. If these are only great music, then they could be studied at a time other than a religious holiday with which they are associated."

, Speaking in UieKnesset, Miiu ' lster - Without - Portfolio Israel Galili said the resolution indicated "the moral and political bankruptcy of the United Nations," was "a mockery of the hopes of so many people in the UN—at least in the realm of protecting human life." At the UN, the resolution was excoriated by Israeli Ambassador Yosef Tekoah, who said the measure "has crippled the organization and rendered it unable to act equitably and effectively." The resolution, he said, "makes a sheer mockery of the Secretary General's re-
quest—that t h e General Assembly take effective measures to prevent international terrorism, and is an affront to the worldwide concern to stamp out the plague of wanton murders and barbaric atrocities." 7
Rabbi Joseph R. Sternstein, chairman of the ZOA National Executive Committee, declared that the Legal Committee "abrogated a moral responsibility."

Unhappy Ending for Judy's Love St@ry? •JERUSALEM (JTA)-Judy Silver Shapiro, the social worker from Cincinnati, and Gavriel Shapiro, the Jewish engineer activist she married in Moscow last June, are believed to have separated, .according to reports here. The couple who came to Israel in October after a reunion in Vienna, disappeared from the Beit Giora immigrant absorption center in Jerusalem. Jewish Agency officials said they had no idea where they were or whether they were living together. '

With Rashed arc his sister and brother-in-law, visiting him from their home village. Rashed had ptepped on a mine planted by the Arabs during the Six Day War.
Israeli newspapers published a United Press International story claiming that the Shapiros have broken up. One newspaper quoted a Jewish Agency official as saying that they were no longer, living together. Other Agency officials refused to comment on the report. "We do not handle the private or matrimonial affairs of our immigrants," one official said. Israeli sources said that the story of their break-up was probably gcnuinc-They said' the couple quarreled publicly in Vienna when Judy wanted to return to the U.S. and Gavriel insisted on leaving at once for Israel. They quarreled again in front of reporters at Lod Airport, the sources said. They described Judy as "bossy" and Gavriel as "quiet but firm."
Wide Jewish Generation Gap Found in Sex. Drug Attitudes " New York (JTA) - A wide generation gap between Jewish teenagers and their pjivnts ' on issues of drug use and sex experience has been disclosed in a survey which was part of a Jewish Youth Project funded by the Jewish Federation of Cincinnati. The generation gap emerged ._ from two pollings. One was of the, views of 233 children in grades nine through 12, roughly in the 15 to 18-year-old bracket. That study sought to learn the extent of drug usage and tho attitudes of'the students toward drug use, and teenage attitudes and behavior about sex, religion and Jewish education. The results indicated that nearly half of the teenagers had experimented with a drug at least once and that 28 per cent reported they were currently using one or more types of drugs. For the category of drugs other than marijuana, the study found that 23 per
cent of the adolescents had male and female roles—often used one or more of the drugs with guilt, fear and desperaand that ten per cent indicated • tion. they were currently using Conflicts with parents were drugs in that category. high on the teenagers lists of Tho" study,. however, found problems.

How Jewish Members of Congress Voted on Crucial Civil Rights Issues By JOSEPH POKAKOFF Some Indication of the views toward minorities and the poor by Jewish members of Con; gress may be seen in their voting tecords on civil rights legislation. •: In the 92nd Congress, according to (be Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, the two Jewish Senators and five of the twelve Jewish Representatives achieved perfect records "on crucial civil rights issues." A sixth Congressman missed a perfect score by being unrecorded twice in thirteen votes. • The compilation by the Conference showed Senators Jacob K, Javits and Abraham RibicoH both -voted "right" in the Conference's v i e w on eight ,"Jcey" Senate issues. Similarly, in the House, Representatives Bella Abzug, Emanuel Celler, Edward I. Koch and Benjamin Rosenthal, all' Democrats of New York, along with Sidney iYates (D. III.) voted "right" on 13 issues.

The Jewish Quiz Box QUESTION: Why is the Hebrew language referred to as' "Lashon Kodesh" (the Holy Language)? ANSWER: A number of reasons are offered for this. Some say it is because Hebrew is the language of prayer and prayer is a holy experience because it is a means of communication with the<Almighty. Maimonides (Guide to the Perplexed 3:0) demonstrates that there are no wigianl formal names for the sex organs in the Hebrew language, evidently because the Hebrew language is a language of holiness. Thus, roundabout, indirect expression are used instead. . _ Nachmanides (in his commentary Exodus 30:13) explained that Hebrew is a holy tongue because the scriptures were revealed by the Almighty in this language to the people of Israel sand their prophets. In contrast to this opinion, it is interesting to note that there are some who claim that the revelation at Sinai was given simultaneously in seventy languages. Since the Hebrews received it in Hebrew, the Hebrew language is a holy tongue to them. QUESTION: Since the Almighty is everywhere, why must there be a special house of prayer like the synagogue in which to pray? • ANSWER: Technically, prayers can be recited in any decent and clean place. Isaac, in the Bible, is described as having prayed in a field. Rabbi Abraham Ibn Ezra (in his commentary to Koheleth 5:1) explained that the requirement for a special sanctuary for prayer is due to the limitation of man who is not capable of experiencing everywhere the present of God with concentration arid purity. In the synagogue man can concentrate better and experience the presence of the Almighty. Rabbi Sforono <in his commentary to Leviticus 11:2) claims that because of the sins of the children of Israel, especially with the golden.calf, the Almighty limited His Constant presence in the awareness of man to a special environment such as the synagogue. ^ Prayer in its idea* form, requires a deep concentration and sublime experience. Outside of the synagogue, while man may certainly offer prayers, his pre-occupation with the secular environment prevents him from involvement in the depths' of the ecstacy which is ideally the emotional climate for prayer.
