Palestine as a center of Jewish
survival influenced later Zionist-
political leaders and intellectuals
like Dr. Theodor Herzl and Ahad
Haam, will be removed to Israel,

Lake Tiberias, it was announced
here.
Special services were held
Sunday at the synagogue here.

Hess, who was born in Bonn
in 1812, and educated at the Uni-
versity of Bonn, was a collabora-
tor of Karl Marx, but deviated
from Marx's Socialism by advo-
cating ethical concepts based on
Spinozism.
In 1843, he wrote a book en-
titled "Rome and Jerusalem,"
in which he developed his con-
cepts of practical ethics with the
re-establishment of the Jewish
people in Palestine.
Hess died in Paris in 1875,
but he was buried in the family
burial grounds in the Jewish
cemetery at Cologne. Recently,
a special committee was or-
ganized here for removal of his
remains to Israel.
