one-man peace mission shortly
after' the Six-Day War was de-
stroyed by fire last Friday night
while on display in a Ramat Gan
park.
Nathan spoke to the JTA from
his ship, "Peace" which he hopes
to sail to the Middle East in June
to beam peace broadcasts to Israel
and the Arab states. The "Peace"
is docked on the west shore of the
Hudson River opposite Manhattan.

Isrneli police took two 16-Year-
old boys into custody for setting
fire to Nathan's plane, named
Shalom L They indicated that
the fire was an act of vandalism
by a group of youths who were
having a "good time" at the
park and decided to start a bon-
fire. - -
Nathan flew the plane to Egypt
in July 1967 landing at Port Said
on the second of his one-man
peace missions. He flew his _first
peace mission to Egypt in a dif-
ferent plane in February 1968. In
both instances he was released by
Egyptian authorities and allowed
to leave the country with the air-
craft "They even refueled it,"
Nathan told the JTA.

Timely for Passover, Burning
Bush Press has issued a brochure
defining Passover, its beginnings,
symbolisms, observances and regu-
lations in all their details.
The small 30-page pamphlet en-
titled "Passover—More Than Free-
dom" was written by Dr. Evelyn
Garfiel. The author explains why
the holiday which began as a
"nature festival" has acquired
more meaning.
Dr. Garfiel describes how it all
began and who wrote the Hagada
that is read at the seder. She re-
fers to Exodus 12:8 and 13:8 for
the sources.
Also: she quotes Dr. Louis
Finkelstein to show that while
major attention had been given
to Jesus' observance of the seder
in 30. CE that there is proof of its
having been observed three cen-
turies before the Christian era.
The hymns and songs, . the
Four Questions, the matzo sub-
stituting for the ancient sacri-
fice—all aspects of the festival
are reviewed.
Passover is described as "more
than freedom" because "it is at
once a rich treasury and a con-
cretization of the many value ideas
of Judaism."
Burning Bush Press also issued
this week a pamphlet on "Avot-
The Ethics of the Fathers" by
NEW • YORK—A first step in im-
plementing a decision by the or-
ganized Jewish community of
North America was taken with
the appointment of Prof. Leon A.
Jick of Brandeis University as
director of the newly established
Institute for Jewish Life.
Announcement of the insti-
tute's first director was made
il of Jewish Federa-
at the Counc
tions and Welfare Funds'- board
of directors meeting at the Wal-
dorf-Astoria Hotel Saturday.
Membership of the institute's
board, comprising a broad range -
of Jewish leaders and figures
in the United States. and Canada,
will be announced shortly.
The institute will be a division
of the CJF. Its North American
headquarters will open in Boston
May 15. Professor Jick will be 6
on leave of absence from -his ad-
ministrative duties at Brandeis
University.
Charged with developing inno-
vative projects to strengthen the
quality of Jewish life and given
approval of a $2,250,000 "risk
capital fund" to carry out this
charge, the institute will focus
on the total fabric of Jewish life.
Among the areas of concern
for which projects will be in-
itiated are the erosion of fatu-
ity life; and Jewish education,
including the relation of Jewish
teaching and values to current
issues and problems.
Additionally, the institute will
place special emphasis on local
programs initiated, conducted and
financed directly by individual
communities with national guid-
ance and evaluation by the insti-
tute. ,
