He asserted that his government would seek "to abolish as far as possible all restrictions and controls on the economy," adding that it planned "to adapt our economic structure to the pattern of the American economy in keeping w i t h the s p e c i a l circumstances prevailing in Israel." The three-day conference assembled more than 700 Jewish leaders from the United States and Canada for the purpose of planning an intensive effort to provide increased economic aid to Israel through toe sale of State of Israel Bonds.

He cited the 1964 U.S. C M Rights Act, Title Seven, wlilch requires employers to provide "reasonable accommodation" for religious beliefs and practices. The Iowa State Education Association has begun checking into what kind of accommodation is required. Bob Gllchrist, ISEA president, said it was too early to tell what kind of action his group might take on King's behalf. "We definitely will protect , hi|> rights," Gllchrist said. Most Title Seven cases deal with sex and race discrimination. Cases of alleged religious discrimination is "Just a new aiea for us," Gllchrist said.

The Iowa Association of School Boards has been advising the school district 'King graduated from the Univeristy of Iowa in sociology and went on to train for teaching mentally retarded students.

The Friendly Visitors and Telephone Reassurance Service— now called "The Smile Une" is of f to a flying start. Some 15 volunteers attended the first orientation. The Smile Line attempts to communicate with senior citizens by either personal visits or regular telephone call. This service represents a reaching-out to others and is particularly appropriate at this holiday season. Jewish Family Service estimates that 20 additional volunteers from 16-60 plus are needed to operate the program on a strong basis. The next training session is scheduled for Oct. 11, and interested parties may contact Carolyn Novicoff at 334-8200 for information. Join the Smile Line. The party at the other end needs you.
Mitzpeh Yamim--Refuge in Galilee HAIFA—The head of waving white hair, the white beard, the sharp eyes, the weather-beaten, leathery skin, give Dr. Jarus the appearance of one of the prophets of the Bible. And as he tramps about his acreage in the Galilee hills he proclaims a message to mankind — a message that Is seldom heard because Dr. Jarus does not believe in publicity or advertising. It is a message that is conveyed by word of mouth to those who come to his home, and to those who are sent here by others who had come before them. In the materialistic world of modern Israel, Dr. Jarus Is one of the last of the true idealists. His idealism transcends politics. He is a Hebrew Thoreau who preaches a return, even if only for an Interlude, to the simple, uncomplicated life of nature, free from the stresses and strains of modern civilization. It is not a life for everyone, but
many find their way to his iife. door. They include those who The modest guest house, suffer from, or fear the onset perched on the hillside betof ulcers; those who seek to ween Safed and Rosh Pina, is reduce In weight; or those who some 1800 feet above the Sea yearn for a complete and utter of Galilee.

TotbeEditor: I helped to establish the first Chair In the world for the study of the Holocaust through a grant hi the Yeshiva University In New York under the name of the Paul and Leah Lewis Chair on the Holocaust. Men such as the present Chancellor Dr. Lamm and Rabbi Irving Greenberg were the professors on this chair. At Stern College the professor was Lucy Dawidowicz. In 1963 when a memorial sponsored by me at Congregation Adas Israel in Washington was dedicated, my speech was read and then recorded at the Senate. In 1967 when the war in Israel broke out, I sponsored a full page article under the caption "Who Is the Agressor?", in the Washington Post, rebutting Russia's accusation against Israel and giving the facts and putting the blame on her. At this time I sent a fully equipped ambulance to Israel to the Red Mogen David. - I was honored by the Torah Umesorah, National Society for Hebrew Day Schools In New York for outstanding service at the Waldorf In 1968. In 19681 donated a wing in Akiba Academy Hebrew Day School hi Dallas, and was the building chairman and general contractor. In 1969 I was awarded the Lewis Marshall Award by the Jewish Theological Seminary for my work In perpetuating the-memory of our .Martyrdom. This is given every year to four men who have distinguished themselves in various areas.
' I was honored by the Israeli government in 1971 and presented a certificate of merit by the Yad Vashem. President Shazar, when I entered his house, addressed me as "The Yad Vashem of America". At the 20th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising I have sponsored Holocaust Haggadahs having the story of the Holocaust and a message from the late President John F. Kennedy hi Its pages.' A second Commemorative edition was done for the 30th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. They were donated to Synagogues and Day Schools for resale. I am also sponsoring each year the Remembrance Day for the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, "Yom Hashoah", In my city. I have Initiated a contest held every ' year on Post Biblical Jewish History. Three substantial cash prizes are awarded to the three highest contestants. I built and donated by my own financial means a synagogue, Beth Israel in Mesqulte, Texas for a small community of people. These, people were unable to build one on their own. This was given to them free and clear. At that time there were about 100 students In the Hebrew and Sunday School. Though I am in advanced years. I am nottooold and not too poor to help others in their e n d e a v o r of b u i l d i n g memorials. - Paul Lewis
for the guests, though Dr. Jarus has reluctantly yielded to the desire for a television set in the living room. He never looks at it himself. We sat with the 85-year-old prophet of natural life at supper. He explained simple rules in advance. First, no water on the table. Drinking during the meal interferes with natural digestion. An hour or so later, alright. Second, we do not talk during the meal. The dining room was quiet, but we did hear some voice conversation going on at other tables. The menu: fruits, vegetables, nuts, all natural produce. No canned foods, no fried foods, no meat/Of course. Our prophet came to Israel from Germany, with his M.D. degree hi 1920. He practiced medicine, but his ways were unorthodox. He does not believe in medicines, not even aspirin. Fifty years ago he bought this spot, cleared the land, planted the trees, and lived in tents until a first permanent building went up. He rises dally at 5 a.m. and puts hi the first two hours at his agricultural work. Nothing is too difficult for the octogenarian. If he had not been a doctor, he would have been a fanner, he says. ' The guest house has room for 40 guests only. He calls It Mitzpeh Yamln, and points out the play on words in Hebrew. It could mean "Lookout on the Seas" — the Sea of Galilee, and what Is now left of Lake Huleh. But be prefers the translation, "Reflect on the Days." This is a place for rest, retrospection and refuge from the complexities of life. The guest is encouraged to make a complete break from the normal routine of his dally life; it Is the only way to rebuild mind and body, says Dr. Jarus. Hence the departure from the usual program of a summer hotel, and the complete change In diet as well. The view over the Sea of Galillee, Klneret, Mount Hermon, the dozens of kibbutzim and villages scattered below, the vast expanses of the Golan Heights, provides material for contemplation, historic or philosophical, for hours on end. There are pathways through the woods and over the hills. ' The air Is dry and pleasant all summer, but Dr. Jarus finds beauty in whiter as well. His guests can bask in warty sun, while watching the rams fall on the Golan; or go through a heavy shower of fresh rain, and simultaneously see the sun piercing the clouds over Galilee hills miles away. Then, a walk In the pine woods, even in the sharp cool alrofwlnter. Mitzpeh Yamim does not advertise. One guest sendsanother.

Kripke's Address (Continued from Page 1) r e v i v a l s which are widespread in contemporary America, these two are our religious revival and our educational revival. When our Russian neighbors inaugurated the space age, America reacted not with delight but with panic. Somehow it was felt that a better educated America could nave made its Vanguard a true Vanguard, and the educational debate was on. The egg-head, long a resentful private in our civilian task force, was suddenly promoted to five-star rank. The teacher, the forgotten man of the American scene, gained new attention. People took a renewed Interest in musty old calculus books and dirty telescopes, for somehow it was, felt that these tools were weapons of war. The schools came in for expensive criticism, some of it searching and profound, some ot it shallow and trite,'but. always on a greater scale than ever before. And this has been our educational revival, the ' restoration of learning. Our religious revival has been less sudden, but no less pronounced. Perhaps we decided that since Communists were atheistic, we must be the opposite, and maybe the age of anxiety had some relevance. Church attendance swelled to a new peak, and the august halls of Congress decided to honor the Die-
ty by inserting Him into our A m e r i c a n P l e d g e of Allegiance. Some asserted their new religiosity by buying mustard seeds, others by attending mass rallies in New York. To some, religion was another weapon in the war against Communism, and to others it was an inexpensive form of tranquiUzing drug; perhaps to a few it was a real aid in a time of moral crises. And, this has been our religious revival, our returntoGod. Perhaps the listener may entertain some mild skepticism about all this. Leading theologians have expressed their doubts about our religious revival, doubts about Its sincerity and its depth. And I must confess my apprehensions about our renewed Interest in education • apprehensions as to whether we really want learning, really want science, or merely UjJsh to keep up with Russia. Has America really seen the true values of a liberal education, has It realized the importance of theoretical science, or is it merely concerned with the missile race? Do Americans attend churches and synagogues because they are churches and synagogues, or because they give social prestige? These are some of the questions which we, as graduates, must answer. We have completed four years of education on the high school level and
most of us are fortunate enough to expect four more yearsonthecollegelevel. If we truly appreciate what we are receiving, we as future citizens, must try to ensure that our educational interest Is nothing ephemeral. We must build America where the teacher is an honored citizen, and where the scholar Is respected for his own sake. We must become truly educated ourselves, so .that we may build a more educated society .for tomorow. Above all, we must realize that there are universal values in education which are far more Important than anytemporaryrace with Russia. As Jewish graduates, we face special responsibilities for the religious revival. Judaism Is the mother of the religions of the western world, It is the originator of the Idea ot ethical monotheism on which they are based. And yet today, Judaism finds itself in a
crisis. Marshall Sldare, a noted religious scotologtst, recently found the Jews to be the least religious group in America. Few of us can deny our fundamental Ignorance of many aspects of our Jewish heritage. And yet, trends can be reversed, and perhaps we of the younger generation can initiate not a shallow, temporaryreligiousrevival, but a renewal of a Judaism vitally relevant to the .problems of modern man. Perhaps we can become educated In Jewish tradition; perhaps we can apply it to the pressing problems of the modern world. It Is commonplace that a graduation is not so much an end as a beginning. The tasks which are before us are manifold and urgent. If we, as graduates, determine to honor our highest Ideals, not with lip service, not with temporary enthusiasm, but with true dedication and a firm purpose, our education will not be in
