OBITUARIES
Rabbi I. Paneth, Orthodox Scholar,
Buried in Jerusalem; Was Age 67
Rabbi Isaac Paneth, Orthodox
rabbi whose scholarship was well
recognized in Detroit, died Tuesday
at age 67. Burial took place in
Jerusalem.
A teacher, rather than a preach-
er, Rabbi Paneth was highly re-
garded by the members of the
secularist Jewish Parents Institute,
for whom he conducted a class in
Jewish ethics. Other classes he
taught at the Jewish Center in-
cluded Yiddish courses on current
Jewish topics and Bible study and
classes in historical and practical
Judaism. He also conducted holi-
y workshops for persons with no
wish background. He particular-
ly enjoyed teaching children.
"He was a traditional rabbi, yet
e of the most liberal people
und," according to Charles
olfe, supervisor of the Center's
e ducational
services department.
In his free time, he taught a class
in Jewish history for the Center
staff.
In the past few years, he had
conducted High Holy Day serw-
f ices at the Center. For five years,
he served as spiritual leader of
the Baal Israel and Beth Moses
congregations on Linwood.

Born in Hungary, Rabbi Paneth
was ordained in Frankfurt-am-
Main. When the Nazis seized power,
Rabbi Paneth was sent to Bergen-
Belsen.
With the death of their rabbi,
the Dutch Jews who were interned
with Rabbi Panetk selected him as
their leader, bestowing on him the
tallis of their late rabbi. This tallis
remained with Rabbi Paneth for
the remainder of his life, and it
was his wish that he be buried
with it.
Rabbi Paneth's son-in-law, Rabbi
Marshall Goldman, recalled the
story of unique occurrence in
Bergen-Belsen on Passover. Rabbi
Paneth found the pit of an apricot
and, with a little wine, prepared
haroset. He told his fellow prison-
ers that this was a sign they would
be liberated.
On the last day of Passover,
aboard a train to the death camp,
he and his comrades were liberat-
ed by the Americans.
After the war, Rabbi Paneth
served as secretary of the Buda-
pest Orthodox congregation. He
came to the United States, and
Detroit, in 1948. Only two brothers
survived the Holocaust.
He leaves his wife, Ann, 15320
Northgate, Oak Park; three daugh-
ters, Mrs. Marshall (Miriam) Gold-
man, Mrs. William (Naomi) Wein-
man and Mrs. Harold (Judith)
Lax; two brothers, Yaakov and

Argentine 'Churchman
Lauds Israel on Birthday
In Blessed and Beloved
Memory of
Our Dearly Departed
BUENOS AIRES (JTA) — The
head of the Roman Catholic Church
in Argentina has congratulated Is-
rael on the occasion of the 20th
anniversary of its independence.
Antonio Cardinal Caggiano. Arch-
bishop of Buenos Aires, addressed
his message to Baruch Tenenbaum,
secretary-general of the Committee
for Argentine House in Israel.
The cardinal's message said in
part: "I am glad to congratulate
you for your longings for peace
. . . the responsibility of creating
a peaceful atmosphere is a task
for everyone. Certainly the obliga-
tion to seek peace does not con-
flict with the rights of self-defense.
I extend my most fervent wishes
that Israel's genius, illuminated by
God, shall find a way to peace. Its
success in the fields of culture and
science deserve the world's ad-
miration."

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE PUBLIC
FROM THE COUNCIL OF ORTHODOX RABBIS
OF METROPOLITAN DETROIT
To our sorrow and dismay, we learn, from time to
time, of the public violation of the Jewish Holidays, which
come about from holding funerals during those days even
with the participation of certain rabbis and cantors.
We are, therefore, taking this opportunity to reiterate
again, as we have already done in the past, that holding a
Ar funeral on a Jewish Holiday, even on the second day,
entails a violation of our religious laws and practices. The
present geographic dispersal of the Jewish community
adds so many obvious violations of the Holiday.
