Global Report

New York (JTA)—"The entiri program of Jewish religious education in the United States is being imperiled by the headlong abandonment of the teaching profession by its members seeking greater security of working conditions and salary standards,"- Dr. Pinkhos Churgin, dean of t h e • Teachers Institute of Yeshiva University, declared.

Progress Addressing the Annual Assem« bly of the Mizrachi National Education Committee at Yeshiva Uni- ) verslty, Dr. Churgin Bald" that "Substantial progress has been recorded In the last decade in Jew* ish education at the day elemeh- ; tary and day secondary levels."

However, the noted Jewish educator, who is president-designate of Bar-IIan University in Israel, told the 100 delegates that "the record of progress was darkened by several shortcomings."

Dr. Churgin warned that "the fact that some 50 per cent of all Jewish children receiving somo kind of a Jewish education are to be found in Sunday school classes marks a dangerous decline in the sense of Jewish re^ sponslbillty of their parents. The Sunday School program has been clearly demonstrated to be totally inadequate even by the ^iost.eager standards of what basic information the child needs to discharge his religious obligations as a Jewish adult.

Danger Signals "Similar danger signals appear in any examination of the status of the Jewish teacher," he said.

"On the one hand, notable progress has been recorded in the training of religious school teachers and the number of such teachers annually being graduated from the various teachers institutes has been increasing steadily. Nevertheless, there is a growing shorU nge of Jewish teachers, not alone b e c a u s e of the expansion in schools and enrollment but also because of an unprecedented professlonal mortality of* J e w i s h teachers," he declnred.

Rabbi Joseph Lookstcln, retiring president of the Mizrachi National Education Committee, told the delegates that Jewish education In the United States "should . be of ns much concern to Zionists today as the establishment of a Jewish State was yesterday. The Zionists of America will have to realize, if they have not already done so, that the political phase of Zionism cannot any longqr constitute the major part of Zionist activity," he added.

Isldor Margolls, executive director of the education agency, reported that there are at present In the United States and Canada at least 100 Jewish day schools, from the kindergarten through the high school level.

Mr. Margolls added that registration In elementary day schools has been Increasing steadily during tho past five years and that during "this school year to date thero has been an II per cent increase in registration in such schools over the corresponding period in the previous school year."

Women in Israel

By Orace Jan Waldmaa Washington (JTA)—In Israel, woman's work is a mnn-siwd Job. This was learned from Glvanali Golteln, lovely dnunhtcr of the Minister Plenipotentiary of the bfacl Embassy In Washington.

Givanah is one of n colony of 30 Israel Embassy Indies who civc us insight Into the differences existing between Israel und American women. The Minister's daughter listed the rlclito and responsibilities of the Israel woman, Including her legal and social equality, her nrmy responsibilities, her pride in having shared equally in Israel's achievements, her masculine duties, her Intensive physical and Intellectual tasks. These factors may have removed the Inclination to keep up with beauty care—"although I think it's very important," Givanah added.

Glvnnah said that the Israel woman cannot afford to take proper care of her face ond Havre, because nf the scarcity of proteins and abundance of starches.

Cosmetics arc a rare commodity in Israel, while in America countless advertisements stress femininity that can be bought in a bottle or achieved by scientific dieting.

Aside from her career, which is generally of equal intensiy as that of her husband's, housework for the Israel woman Is a man-sized woman'! job. This entails standing in tedious lines for rationed food and running a home without American-type gadgets. Israel husbands do not share the responsibility of "mothering" their children, or watching after them while mother Is still at work, as many American men do. Instead, highly developed nurseries have as their function to care for the child/en of Israel women during working hours.

Equal Conscription Duties The social, legal and political status of the Israel woman is on a par with her responsibilities, in contrast to the situation in other Eastern countries.-A woman is cligiblo to cast her vote and to be elected to all offices. She is on integral member of the defense forces and shares equal conscription duties with men. For years men and women served a minimum of two years in the army Now men must servo for two and one-half yearn, but, Glvanali Golteln reminds us, "they moved men up, not women down." The basic training program for men and women la essentially the came. and even msurrlccl women are called to serve in the reserve forces, A controversy arose some time ago between the orthodoxy and the government of Israel concerning the- conscription of traditionbound orthodox Jewish women.

The drafting of women was opposed on the grounds that it defied ancient Rabbinical laws. A compromise WO3 made in this area.

The army now. assigns special lighter duties to orthodox women and offers them protection, realizing their problems in adjusting to modern Israel customs.

Other legal and social right have been adjusted to the position of women. A woman now calls her husband "ion" (man) instead of "baal" (master). A woman's property may be bequeathed to her heirs; It docs not necessarily become the property of her hus-

band. Some time ago, the father, or in case of his death, the grandfather was responsible for the offspring of a marriage; the bother has since become the natural fiuardian of her child. Elsewhere in the East, women have tho status of property. ImmlRrnnts in Israel from Eastern countries find It difficult to adjust their primitive customs to the democratic ways of.

Israel. When bigamy was recently outlawed, Yemenites had to be made to understand that they can retain only their first wives—tho others had to go.

I.css Discrimination Givanah Goitein feels that there Is less social and professional discrimination against women In Israel thao In America. Women serve In the administration, occupy leading positions In the professions, and are judges, lawyers, doctor.1!, Journalists. One woman, Golda Mcycrson, has been a minister in the foreign service and now cervc3 ns Minister of Labor and Social Insurance. Women are equally prepared with men for all fields and tho Important educational Institutions are co-ed. There arc 12 women out of 120 memberr of the Knesset. The majority of women, however, are in the fields of social work, nursing and teaching. This Is probably duo less to traditional reasons than to Israel's intense needs for technological skills. For this reason, the arts have lagged behind In Israel's development, hence there Ore few women artists, and on the whole, few great artists in Israel, 7.7 An organized active force ior social betterment of women Is the Moctzot : Hapoalct, or Working Women's Council. This is headed

by Beba Idelsonk who is also* a member of the Knesset, It Is composed of 140,000 women engaged in promoting trade unionism and vocational training among women. This organization and another known as WIZO promote integration of immigrants In the framework bf Israel living, provide training courses and housing for career women, and attempt projects In education and public service.

Orders have been placed more than four months in advance of the first seder April 17, so as to insure the arrival of supplies well in ndvanco of tho need for them.

JDC budgeting for this purpose has dropped because the agency Is no longer permitted to operate In Hunfinry, where it previously supplied Passover foods for many Jews. It also has ceased shipping matzoh products to Greece where the Greek customs duties on grain products have risen to such an extent ns to make the shipment of matzohs Into the country prohibitive.

United Nations, N. Y. (JTA) — Three internationally known water engineers declared this week that the Israeli hydroelectric development nt Iinot Yaacov would fit "admirably" into Hie so-called TVA project for the Jordan River, The engineers arc II. G. Ilashore, J. L. Savage and Abel Wolman.

They made their survey at the request of the Israeli flovernrnent The engineers declared that the present projects to canalize the waters of the Jordan for transmission to Lake Tiberias "are not only in conflict with the proposals in the report but fit into them admirably. They conflict in no way with the TVA project or any other scheme for using Lake Tiberias for a main reservoir for the distribution of irrigation water for the Jordan Valley."

Mr. Hashore has been associated with major irrigation and water projects in the United States since 1000 when ho Joined the U. S. Bureau of Reclamation. Mr. Savage has served as consultant to a number of foreign countries inc l u d i n g Switzerland, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Spealn and Puerto Illco. Mr. Wolman is a consultant for the TVA, the U. S. Army and the U. S. Public Health Service.

]ly Rabbi Samuel J. Fox Question: What is a "Hesped?" (NH—New York, N. Y.) Answer: A "hesped" Is the colloqual ex urcssion for a "eulogy." It is interesting to note that this word came from a Hebrew root moaning 'to strike" or "to smite." It originally may have referred to a custom of "smiling lhe breast" as a gesture of mourning. Just as this ;y have been an outward display of mourning so may a eulogy have been an outward display of grief. It could also be th.'tt a eulogy \va;; delivered by striking your briar.1, a:; you spoke.

It is to be remembered that striking the breast Is a traditional act when offering prayers of confession either during the year or at Yorn Kippur, The event of death might have been combined with a feeling of repentance amongst the mourners. The exact connection of smiting the breast with mourning, is still a matter of some speculation, however.

Question: How did the custom of delivering a eulogy originate?

Answer: * This seems to be among the oldest of customs. In the Bible Abraham Is recorded as having eulogized his wife Sarah. Jacob was eulogized by his children. Samuel the Prophet was eulogized. It can thus be seen that the practice of delivering eulogies was quite popular in Biblical times.

The Talmud mentions different customs pertaining to eulogies, but generally seems to consider it an obligation to provide a eulogy for the deceased. There are imHances mentioned of hiring persons to eulogize the dead.

The purpose of the eulogy seems to have been two-fold. Basically it was meant to move the audience to a state of remorse and grief for the deceased. This was perhaps to indicate publicly, the regret of the community over the loss of this ndividual. Also, it i» said that the purpose of the eulogy, was to proclaim tho good points of the deceased. In a way, the original manner of the eulogy seems to be somewhat different than our modern ways. The Talmud Indicates that the person who speaks untruth In the course of a eulogy is worthy of punishment.
