was out of Panama from April 8 to
15 last year to attend an interna-
tional conference in Punta del Este,
Uruguay, Delvalle acted as presi-
dent of Panama. He was at that
time said to be the first Jewish
head of a state outside Israel.
Jews are active in the political,
intellectual and cultural life of
Panama. There is a Jewish deputy
in the National Assembly, who
won his seat as a member of the
Christian Democratic Party.
The Jewish population of Pan-
ama is approximately 1,800.
Sixty per cent of the Jews are
Sephardim. The largest Jewish
communities are in Panama City
(1,378) and Colon (257).
There are three congregations
in Panama City, each with its own
rabbi: one Reform, one Conserva-
tive and one Orthodox. A Jewish
center to serve all three groups
is under construction.
There is one Jewish school, the
Albert Einstein Institute, with an
enrollment of 350; of these, 80 per
cent are Jewish and represent 90
per cent of all Jewish children of
school age in Panama City.
The central representative body
of Panamanian Jewry is the Cen-
tral Jewish Community Council
of Panama. It is a member of the
Federation of Jewish Communities
of Central America and Panama,
the headquarters of which is pres-
ently in San Salvador. The federa-
tion in turn is affiliated with the
World Jewish Congress.

Italy Recalls Jews Slain
by Retreating Nazis
.,....,,.......-

ROME (JTA)
Memorial serv-
ices were held here for 335 Nazi
victims, among them 75 Jews, who
were massacred March 24, 1944 in
the Ardeatine caves as German
forces retreated from Italy before
the Allied armies.
The memorial was addressed by
Minister of Commerce and In-
dustry Andreotti who, referring to
the Israel-Arab dispute in the Mid-
dle East, declared that no political
or commercial calculations would
prevent Italy from expressing its
solidarity with the few survivors
of the millions of Jews extermina-
ted by the horrors of racial per-
secution in Europe.
What kind of
shoes should
you wear
to a Seder?
Listen, it all depends. If you're staying at
home, who cares? You'll hide your feet under
the table so no one should notice. But if
you're invited out — that's another story
altogether. After all, this night is different
from all other nights. You can't leave the
house without a decent pair of shoes. You've
got to have a nice pair of shoes — something
new for Spring. And it just so happens that
Phillips just received their new Florsheims
and Italian imports. It's a selection like you
wouldn't believe. Take our word for it. No
— don't take our word for it. Come and see
them. Where? Look, there are five wonder-
ful shoe stores in town, and they're all called
Phillips. And to make it easier for you there
are two of them at Northland. So take a
look at the new shoes. It's a selection you
shouldn't pass over.
