cation of two booklets describing
career opportunities in synagogue
and temple administration and in
the cantorate.
The booklets provide educational

Torczyner declared that the new

activities, our children can take
part in a dynamic program which

PARIS—Despite a vigorous cam-
paign by Communist regimes to
win support of their people for
Arabs in the conflict with Israel,
pro-Arab sympathies in Eastern
Europe remained at a consistently
low level during the year following
the Six-Day War, the European
office of the American Jewish Com-
mittee has reported.
In this same period, sympathy
for Israel dropped somewhat in
Eastern Europe, but she still en-
joyed a 4-to-1 edge over the Arabs
in public sympathy. In Western
Europe, the number of Israeli sym-
pathizers also fell, but there they
maintained an 8-to-1 advantage
over the Arabs in public sympathy.
The survey of more than 5,000
East Europeans from Czechoslo-
vakia, Hungary, Poland and Ro-
mainia visiting West Europe was
conducted by responsible public
opinion research institutes. It cov-
ered the periods right after the
June 1967 War; from August to
November 1967; and from Decem-
ber 1967 to May 1968.
Particularly striking was the
fact that Poles, especially Polish

youth, had reacted strongly
against their government's anti-
Semitic propaganda. The number
of Israel's sympathizers "actually
grew between the second survey
and the third," thus indicating
that the violent anti-Zionist cam-
paign early in 1968 apparently
had backfired.

The report comments, "The basic
anti-Russian sentiment behind this
pro-Israel bias is apparent . . . the
underlying reason is a clearly dis-
cernible identification with a small
nation which successfully defied the
Russians, upset their political ma-
chinations and has thus far man-
aged to get away with it."

Travel-Study Programs

NEW YORK—A compendium of
62 study and travel programs in
the United States, Israel and Eu-
rope available this year for the
teen-ager and the young adult has
been published by the Jewish com-
munal affairs department of the
American Jewish Committee.
The 20-page brochure describes

(consecration) service will be held
as part of the Sabbath morning

rolled pupils from all three Adas
Shalom branches of the religious
school.
The synagogue choir will chant
selections, and the children will be
led in prayer and song by their
teachers. The consecrants will be
presented with a miniature Tora
scroll and candy—symbolic of the
sweetness of learning.

`New Morality' to Be

The Czech sentiment closely fol-
lowed the over-all European pat-
tern. The Hungarians showed the
greatest attitude change, pro-Israel
support having dropped by the
third survey to 36 per cent, the
lowest of all Eastern European
lands, whereas in the first it had
been the highest with 65 per cent.

Romanian attitudes did not change
significantly, remaining strongly
pro-Israel.
It was noted that the greater the
degree of education among the re-
spondents, the more support for
Israel. The neutral attitude, which
increased at the expense of Israel,
was "most prevalent among older
respondents."
