Conservative Rabbis
to Examine Renewal
of Jewish Liturgy

The Conservative Rabbinate's
new Mahzor, the High Holy Day
Prayer Book now in preparation,
will commemorate the destruction
of European Jewry with at least
one prayer and some of the holo-
caust literature in the Yiddish
language, it was revealed by Rabbi
Max J. Routtenberg, president of
the Rabbinical Assembly.
The Mahzor in particular and
the liturgy in general will be
discussed at the 65th annual con-
vention of the assembly, May 23-
27, at the Concord, Kiamesha
Lake, N.Y.
The Mahzor, according to Rabbi
Routtenberg, will represent the
Conservative rabbis' discontent
with being merely "the transmis-
sion agencies for tradition, al-
though we cannot conceive of
Judaism without knowledge of and
reverence for the spiritual legacy
of our faith. Our High Holy Day
Prayer Book will be rooted in tra-
dition, yet will incorporate more
recent liturgical achievements."

JDC Plants 2,500-Tree' Israel Grove
Commemorating 50th Anniversary

A 2,500-tree grove was planted
in Israel by the Joint Distribution
Committee in commemoration of
its 50th anniversary. Some 1,200
JDC-Malben employes and several
hundred of their children attended
the dedication ceremony in Herzl
Forest.
The Malben workers came from
as far away as Acre and Safed in
the north and Jerusalem in the
east, including directors, thera-
pists, nurses, aides and other staff
members of the 25 old age homes,
hospitals, sheltered workshops and
out-patient clinic comprising PDC-
Malben today.

Jewish Appeal funds.
Also on hand for the occasion
were Moses A. Leavitt, executive
vice-chairman, Charles H. Jordan,
director-general for overseas oper-
ations, Theodore D. Feder, JDC
director for Israel, and Yacov Tsur,
chairman of the Jewish National
Fund.
Addressing the assemblage on
a hilltop overlooking 'a lush land-
scape of forest and green fields,
Leavitt recalled that it was a re-
quest for help for the isolated
Palestinian Jews received by Jacob
Schiff on Aug. 31, 1914, from
United States Ambassador Morgen-
thau that led to the formation of
the Joint Distribution Committee.

ROME — Italian police were in-
vestigating Tuesday incidents in
Padua in northern Italy where a
memorial stone to Nazi victims on
the facade of a synagogue in that
city was found smeared. The walls
of a building, in which the presi-
dent of the Padua Jewish com-
munity lives, were also found
smeared with swastikas and slo-
gans hailing Mussolini and Fasc-
ism.
The incidents occurred shortly
after a ceremony was held at the
synagogue in which civic leaders
and members of the Jewish com-
munity laid wreaths at the me-
morial stone marking the struggle
by resistance fighters against the
Nazis.
