Urge 'Book of Independence'
as Addendum to Scriptures

TEL AVIV.—The writing of a "Book of Independence"
as a postscript to Jewish scriptures, to be read in syna-
gogues on every Israel Independence Day, was proposed
Monday night by Chief Rabbi I. M. Toledano of Tel Aviv.
Speaking at a meeting of synagogue ministers, Rabbi Tole-
dano said similar books, including the Book of Esther, have
been written to mark victories over Israel's enemies. He
said the proposed book should be written in Biblical Hebrew
and be ready for next year's celebrations.
Rabbis decided that festive thanksgiving prayers will
be recited in all synagogues on the tenth independence day.
Many rabbis have decided to hold outdoor celebrations at
their synagogues on the eve of Independence Day in an
effort to endow the celebrations with religious significance.
