"The Committee on Jewish
Law and Standards voted on a
previous occasion to exempt
riding to the Synagogue from
the usual prohibition of travel
on the Sabbath. The view of
the Committee was expressed in
two different opinions. One
stressed the need of lifting the
prohibition as indispensable un-
der modern conditions where
I people live in widely scattered
areas and often at great dis-
tances from the Synagogue; the
other took the view that such
exemption was an emergence
measure which the individual

might make when
in his

science he knows that no alter-
native exists, stressing the val-
ues that would be lost by travel
even in such instance. But both
opinions limit this exemption

Rabbi of Temple Beth El, ac-
companied by Beth El's presi-

with 100 interested Windsor
Jews to organize Windsor's first

Meeting at the home of Mr.

task of organizing their own
Reform congregation. They

binical Assembly of America
on Feb. 17 issued the following
statement exempting riding to
the synagogue from the usual
prohibition of travel on the
Sabbath: •
"The Sabbath is the cardinal
institution of Judaism; it is the
principal opportunity afforded
us by our tradition for the hal-
lowing of life. Amidst the pres-
sures of life in our time the
Sabbath offers us not merely a
period of tranquility and re-
lease from tension, it offers us
also a chance for renewal in
our moral and spiritual commit-
ments and it enables us to cul-
tivate fellowship with God in
public worship and personal
meditation.
"But the Sabbath cannot
function as the great day of the
Lord unless we consciously
make "a fence around it." The
most important of the fences
we must make to safeguard the
Sabbath as an oasis of peace
and of holiness is the avoidance
of travel. It was the prophet
Isaiah, the great prophet of re-
ligious inwardness, who defined
for us the way of keeping the
Sabbath. His words in chapter
58:13, 14 are read in the Syna-
gogue on the Day of 'Atone-
tions of Reform Judaism.

Distribute Copies
of Seder Ritual
A call has been issued by the
Seder Ritual Committee to rab-
bis and congregation leaders
throughout the country to pro-
vide their members with copies
of the "Ritual of Remembrance"
to be performed during the
Passover Seder.
The ritual is in memory of
the 6,000,000 Jews whom the
Nazis and their collaborators
murdered during World War II
and of the heroes of the ghetto
uprisings.
The Seder Ritual Committee,
located at 15 E. 84th St., New
York, reports that the ritual is
already being observed at the
seder in thousands of homes
and institutions.
The ritual consists of an ap-
propriate passage in Hebrew
and English, followed by the
singing of "Ani Maamin" (I Be-
lieve), the song of the martyrs
in the liquidation camps. The
words and the music of the song
are included in the ritual as
published by the Committee.
