An illustrated chart showing the traditional way to make
a seder has been made available by Barton's Bonbonniere,
which now offers reprints at any of its branch stores here.
Shown, according to number, are (1) the candles, lighted by
the mother to usher • in Passover; (2) the Haggadah, which
narrates the story of the deliverance from Egypt; (3) the
Matzo, representing the bread of affliction; (4) .the Z'roah or
shank bone, indicating the ancient sacrifice of the Paschal
lamb; (5) the Beitzah or roasted egg, symbolizing the required
offering brought on all festivals in the temple; (6) Maror, the
bitter herbs, which symbolize the Jews' suffering' under Egyp-
tian yoke; (7) Haroset, a mixture of chopped apple, nuts,
cinnamon and wine, which is designed to look like the mortar
used to build Pharaoh's palaces and pyramids; (8) Karpas, a
piece of parsley or lettuce, symbolizing the meager diet of
the Jews in Egyptian bondage; and (9) the Cup of Elijah,
kept on the table throughout the seder in the hope that the
prophet • Elijah will appear to announce the coming of the
Messiah.

problems of power. While the
past few decades have witnessed
exciting developments of re-
search and practice in human
relations . . the question some-
times arises whether sufficient
attention is directed to the" part
played by conflicting interests
and inequalities of power among
individuals and organizations.
. . . The lectures aim to clarify
these issues, to examine the
pdroblems and weigh alternative
views, not to advocate particu-
lar solutions."

Refugee's J ew-Ba iting
Punished in Sweden
STOCKHOLM (JTA) — One
recent Hungarian refugee to
Sweden drew a 30-day sentence
and a second a fine for calling
their Swedish teacher a "Jewish
swine" and threatening to ' kill
him. A third defendant • was
acquitted.
In court, the. defendants
openly admitted that they were
Fascists and anti-Semites. The
court's findings, however, were
officially based on threats
against a public servant.
The 200 Hungarian Jewish
refugees in this country report
frequent instances of anti-
Semitism among the Hungarians•,
Congregation in
Denver Expelled
NEW YORK, (JTA) — The
United Synagogue of America,
central organization of Conser-
vative congregations, has ex-
pelled the 600-family Beth Med-
resh Hagodol of Denver in the
first such action ever taken by
the congregational group.
The recent history of the lead-
ing Conservative synagogue has
been marked by widespread
controversy involving the fir-
ing or forced resignation of five
rabbis in succession, according-
to a spokesman for the USA.
He said that several months
a g o, t lite congregation in-
formed, the USA it wanted to
resign and the proposal was
rejected. After several months
of study of the congregation's
actions, the spokesman said, the
USA Commigsion on Congrega-
tional Standards recommended
expulsion which was formally
voted last _week. The official
charge was "conduct unbecom-
ing a congregatiofi."
The latest rabbi to be fired
was Gershon Winer, who re-
fused to leave the pulpit until
,a settlement was reached by
which the congregation pur-
chased Rabbi Winer's unexpired
two-year contract for $12,000.
I n the case of another dis-
charged rabbi, the USA spOkes-
man said, the congregation re-
jected a USA proposal for arbit-
ration.
The expulsion means that the'
Denver congregation will no
longer receive USA Services and
that no Conservative rabbi will
accept the BMH pulpit.
The expulsion was termed a
case of "sour grapes" by Moses
M. Katz, congregation presi-
dent.
Mr. Katz annbunced election
of Rabbi Samuel Adelman of
Newport News, Va., an Ortho-
dox rabbi, as the new spiritual
leader.
The congregation president
said the ouster was "sour
grapes" for "losing one of the
most prominent congregations in
the United States." He added
that the synagogue officially re-
signed from the USA in July
1956. The USA had reported
that the resignation had been
offered and refused, prior to the
am pies zqrx •uoTsindxa
congregation asked the USA
and the Jewish Theological
Seminary, where Rabbi Winer
was ordained, for help in set-
tling the dispute with the rabbi,
and that the congregation ac-
cepted the D'nver Anti-Defa-
mation League office as an ar-
bitrator.
"The congregation could not
accept a Beth Din of the Semi-
nary because there were no ide-
ological- or - religious questions
involved," Mr. Katz said. "The
issue was between the syna-
gogue and Rabbi Winer and in-
volved the public relations of
Our community."
Rabbi Winer, who now lives
in Baldwin, L. I., filed a $425,-
000 lawsuit for damages against
a Denver baking firm as a se-.
quel to his departure from Den-
ver. He charged he was fired
from the BMH pulpit as a result
of a controversy 'crated by his
endorsement of cookies of the
company as kosher when they
contained animal fat. He said
the cookies, which he recom-
mended for a fund-raising sale
by members of the Conservative
synagogue's Women's League,
were misrepresented to him by
company officials and contained
ingredients violating the Jewish
Dietary Laws, withQut his
'knowledge.
Another Denver rabbi, • Earl
Stone, has publicly urged Rabbi
Winer to drop the lawsuit for
reasons of "Jewish propriety
and responsibility to the good
name of the Jewish community."
