Thus has the Lord spoken.' "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 en in might make when in his his con- 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 to the need of reaching the Formed in First Reform Windsor; Start Services April 15 Dr. Richard C. Hertz, senior Rabbi of Temple Beth El, ac- companied by Beth El's presi- dent, Philip A. Marcuse, met with 100 interested Windsor Jews to organize Windsor's first Reform Jewish Congregation. Meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. H. B. White, Dr. Hertz outlined to the Windsor people why they should undertake the task of organizing their own Reform congregation. They plied him with questions about the ideas, practices and convic- LI 5-5300 5-2969 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.

Monterey 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.
