16,000 Ladino Words
in Bulgarian's Dictionary
PARIS—The curiously preserved
language of Spanish Jews, Ladino,
has been compiled into a diction-
ary by a Bulgarian Jew, Issac
Moscona, who calls the 16,000-
word volume a "funeral monu-
ment."
When the Inquisition drove the
Jews into exile, many of them
came as far east as Bulgaria, then
ruled by the Turks. The language
of these Spanish Jews—spoken in
the Balkans, Italy, North Africa
and Turkey—is primarily Catalan,
with an infusion of biblical Heb-
rew and Arabic borrowed from the
Moors who invaded Spain.
Moscona, 64, president of the
Sofia Synagogue, took three years

Humphrey's New Year Message
As the Jewish people have faced challenges for 5728 years, so the
American Nation is challenged today—at home and abroad.
Our children will look back upon our time in America as a great
age of beginnings. It has provided the great majority of Americans
with prosperity and freedom, with new opportunities for work, with
better education for our children, and with a fuller measure of human
rights.
-
We canont allow this record of progress in people's lives to be aban-
doned to slogans motivated by fear and hatred.
Our choice is clear—whether this nation is to move forward toward
one society of opportunity and justice or whether we abandon this
commitment out of fear and prejudice and move instead toward a
fractured and separated society. -
In this season let tie resolve to move forward, to meet the chal-
lenges of a new day for all Americans.
With best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year.

Belgium Will Ratify
Tokyo Air Piracy Pact
BRUSSELS, Sept. 19 (JTA)—The
Belgian Government announced it
will sign the Tokyo convention
against aerial piracy. Foreign
Minister Pierre Harmel made the
announcement in reply to a parlia-
mentary question. A bill calling for
ratification of the treaty was pre-
sented in Parliament on July 29 as
a consequence of the hijacking of
the El Al airliner by Palestinian
terrorists on July 23.
