Enthusiastic Campaign Workers Report
12,345 Contributors Gave $7,292,370

Campaign workers who gathered
at the Fred M. Butzel Memorial
Building for lunch last Friday
heard a report of $7,292,370
pledged in the 1968 Allied Jewish
Campaign Israel Emergency Fund
from 12,345 contributors. These
same contributors gave $4,050,622
in the 1967 regular campaign.
Campaign Chairman Alfred L.
Deutsch pointed to continuing pat-
terns of giving in which people are
doubling and tripling their regu-
lar 1967 pledges for this year's
double-barreled campaign.
Meyer M. Fishman, pre-cam-
paign chairman, reported on the
xceptional progress of the worn-
n's division which has already
ecured pledges from 270 of its
295 prospects. - He said the men's
pre-campaign which is about two-
thirds completed in its solicitations,
would seek to finish its work before
Passover.
All division officers reported re-
sults far in excess of their 1967
campaign totals.
In calling for the reports,
Deutsch reminded workers that
the drive has entered its most in-
tensive stage and that the five
weeks remaining in the drive prior
to the victory dinner on May 8
would have to be a period of con-
centrated effort.
"The Detroit community has al-
ways understood how great the
need is for maintaining our im-
portant health and social programs
here at home, as well as guarding
the cherished ideals of Israel and
her humanitarian progress which
are the very substance of her ex-
istence," he stated.
The women's division is being
honored today by the Allied Jew-
ish Campaign-Israel Emergency
Fund at the Second campaign
report luncheon at the Fred M.
Butzel Memorial Building.
• Under the chairmanship of Mrs.
Arthur H. Rice the women's divi-
sion has already reached 123 per
cent of its 1967 Allied Jewish Cam-
paign total.
It has completed its highly suc-
cessful Phonogift in which hun-
dreds of volunteers worked in three
shifts, six days a week at head-
quarters in the Zionist Cultural
Center in Southfield, to reach -thou-
sands of women contributors
through telephone calls.

Seminary, Israel Govt. Join Efforts
to Publish Concordances to Talmud

.

NEW YORK — The first con-
cordances (alphabetical indexes of
the principal words) to the Talmud
are being published by the Jewish
Theological Seminary of America
in cooperation with the govern-
ment of Israel, Dr. Louis Finkel-
stein, seminary chancellor, an-.
nounced Monday.
Dr. Finkelstein regards the con-
cordances as a key modern con-
tribution to biblical and historical
scholarship. He said that they will
greatly strengthen rabbinic re-
search, and their use can lead to
important new information and
concepts on the origins of Judaism
and Christianity.
The concordances can enable the
user, to find a snecific passage,
name or idea in the Talmud easily
and quickly; For the average stu- -
dent, searching for an exact pass-
age in the Talmud without the con-
cordances — and often a vaguely
recalled passage — is like seeking
a particular minnow in the ocean.
The long-needed reference works
are being produced in Jerusalem
with the help of a unique word-
location system invented by the
first editor of the concordances.
His two sons, who succeeded him
as editors, are the only persons
who know how to use the system.
One son also is using an advanced
computer.
There are two Talmuds, the
Babylonian and the Palestinian.
Eighteen volumes of the concord-
ance to the Babylonian Talmud
have been published since 1932
under the sponsorship of the
ministry of education and culture
of the government of Israel and
Jewish Theological Seminary.
About eight more volumes are
to be issued.

Social Welfare Centers
Opened in 3 Villages
Outside West Bank Town

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)

HEBRON — Israel's minister of
social welfare, Dr. Joseph Burg,
visited this West Bank town Tues-
day to inaugurate three new social
welfare stations in surrounding
villages. He said his ministry has
4,000,000 pounds - ($1,100,000) at
the disposal of the military govern-
ment for aid to social cases.
Dr. Burg was greeted by Sheikh
Ali Jaabri, mayor of Hebron, who
deplored last Sunday's fatal shoot-
ing of an Israeli border policeman
in the local marketplace and dis-
associated himself from the crime:

ian Talmud will consist of 18
volumes and is expected to be pub-
lished in its entirety by 1973. It
was started in 1965.
Substantial grants from the Max-
well and Fannie Abbell Research
Fund of Jewish Theological Sem-
inary are financing preparation
and publication of the concord-
ances to the Talmud, to books of
the Bible and to commentaries on
these books.
The Talmud, one of the oldest
and most influential works in the
history of religion, is second in
importance to the Bible for the
Jewish people. It is, in fact, a vast
.supplement to the Bible, designed
mainly to explain the true meaning
of Scripture. As the bridge be-
tween the Bible. and life, the Tal-
mud was "a response to a changing
world that could no longer be
guided by the simple word as
enunciated by the Bible."
The approximately 26 massive
volumes that comprise the Talmud
represent about a thousand years
of analysis and debate by the lead-
ing rabbis and Jewish scholars of
'Babylonia and Palestine, beginning
in the 2nd Century, B.C.E.
