Friday, October 25, 1963—THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS- 1 4 Rome Jews Close Shops in Observance of Nazis' Victims ROME, (JTA)—The collabora- tion of Jews and Italians in the partisan fighting against the Nazis here during World War II, and the efforts by many Italians, including priests and nuns, to rescue Jews from Nazi deporta- tions, were recalled in solemn ceremonies marking the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the Nazi campaign to extermi- nate Italian Jewry. The majority of the shops in the Jewish quarter of the city were closed for the afternoon, when the ceremonies took place at the Portico Ottavio. That is the site at which the Nazis rounded up the first batch of 2,000 Jews in Rome marked for extermination, on the morning of Oct. 16, 1943. In the presence of many thousands of Romans, including not only Jews but also members of Italy's highest courts and delegations represent- ing the parliament, Defense MinistrY and the ArmST, the prin- cipal address was delivered by Judge Sergio Piperno, president of the . Union of Jewish Com- munities of Italy. Noting that at least 2,000 Jews fought-the Germans in the Italian partisan units ; Judge Piperno', :pointedout that ,seven Jewish partisans received gold medals for- their- heroism. Among the seven- was the youngest par- tisan hero, 13-year-old Franco Cesano, who got his award post: humously, when he was raised to the rank of captain. The Jewish leader pointed out that the Nazis were particularly bent on annihilating Jewish children. Of 8,000 Jews deport- ed, he said, only 600 survived— but of the 1,400 Jewish children among the deportees, not one returned. Defense Minister Andreotti, another of the principal speakers at the ceremonies, told the as- semblage that "the highest Ital- ian authorities here join you in a pledge of solidarity. We pledge that similar atrocities will never recur here." The- ceremonies were concluded with the recita- tion of the kaddish by Chief Rabbi Elio Toaff. After the rites at the Portico Ottavia, services were conducted in the Great Synagogue, where Rabbi Toaff repeated the kaddish, joined by the crowded congregation. Maiden Voyage for S/S Shalom Bernstein Excels in 'The Lost Art' 200,000 Israelis at Sub-standard Level Burton Bernstein is a master humorist and critic of human nature, and he proves it in "The Lost Art," published by World (2231 W. 110th, Cleveland 2). And the drawings that add to the quality of this book give status to the artist, James Ste- venson. Conversationally, in its cyni- cal criticisms of human nature and human values, "The Lost Art stands out as an evaluative work on the habits of people. The opening dialogue on the concept of God at once creates an interest in the author's in- tentions. Then f olio w the numerous other debatable con- troversies — and out of them emerges the humor of a skilled writer.

MEXICO CITY, (JTA) — An American scholar engaged in research for a history of Mexi- can Jewry reported here that secrets of the Spanish Inquisi- tion covering material on early Jewish families in Latin Amer- ica are being made known to scholars by Mexican authorities. Dr. Seymour Liebman, for- merly of Miami, said that rec- ords of the Catholic church tri- bunal covering several hundred years are now being made avail- able. He said the scribes of the Inquisition left records "almost fantastic in wealth of detail and completeness" on some of the tribunal's trials. He added that thousands of human dramas, "more exciting than any work of fiction," are in the records. This 14-ton monster, soon to churn the waters of the North Atlantic, is one of two propellers being installed in the new Israeli luxury liner, S/S Shalom (Peace) of the Zim Lines, now fitting out at the yards of her builders, Chantiers de l'Atlantique (Penhost,—Loire), St. Nazaire, France. The 23,000 gross ton Shalom, scheduled to arrive in New York on her maiden voyage on May 1, will carry 11,000 passengers between New York and Haifa, Israel via Spanish, French and Italian ports. Her twin screws, turning 130 revolutions per minute, in opposite directions to reduce turbulance, will drive the 629-foot liner through the seas at a normal cruising speed of 20 knots. Her top speed will be in the neighborhood of 24 knots (30 m.p.h.) Power will be supplied by two sets of Parsons single reduction geared turbines, each rated at 12,500 shaft horsepower, which will devour steam at 941 degres F. and 650 lbs. pressure per square inch. The Shalom's boilers will consume 180 tons of fuel oil per day at normal speed. Her engine room will be extensively automated. 2 Israeli Engineers Join New York City's Municipal Services for Special Experience NEW YORK, (JTA) — Two young Israeli engineers, gradu- ates of Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, went on the pay- roll of the City of New York in a new program that is designed to provide Israel engineers with specialized know-how and ex- perience.
