Orphan Hospital Ward of Israel
has again published a reproduc-
tion of an old manuscript Hagada.
In recent years the Orphan Hospi-
tal Ward has published a series of
notable Hagadot.
This year Orphan Hospital Ward
has presented its supporters with
a reproduction of a handwritten il-
luminated Hagada from the 18th
Century. It had been in the posses-
sion of an old Berlin Jewish family
for 140 years. During World War
II, a member of the family was
deported from Berlin to Lodz. He
carried the treasured family Hag-
ada with him into the ghetto. After
the war, the Hagada was salvaged
by a Jew who had returned to
Poland from Nazi labor and death
camps. Subsequently it was taken
to Tel Aviv, hence its name "The
Tel Aviv Hagada."
In recent years, the Hagada was
acquired by Dr. Alfred Moldovan,

Meir Rules Out
Return of Gahal
to the Coalition
JERUSALEM (JTA) — The re-
turn of Gahal to the coalition gov-
ernment was virtually ruled out by
Premier Golda Meir Wednesday.
Replying to questions from students
at the Haifa Technion she said if
Gahal were to return it would
require negotiation of a new gov-1
ednment policy and the establish-
ment of a new coalition. She said
that no approaches have been made
by Gahal in any event.
Gahal chairman Menahem Begin
said last week that his party would
be willing to consider conditions
that might be offered by the gov-
ernment for rejoining the coalition.•
But he emphatically denied that he
was hinting that Gahal wanted to
return. The faction, composed of
Herut and the liberals, is Israel's
second largest political party. It
quit Mrs. Meir's national unity
coalition last summer in protest
against the government's accep-
tance of the America peace initia-
tive which led to the Jarring talks
and the Suez cease fire.
