Orthodox Reply to Energy Crisis:
Keep Car in Garage on Sabbath
NEW YORK — American
Jews were urged to join in
the massive effort to con-
serve energy by instituting
"Shabbos as a car-less day,"
in an appeal by Rabbi Moshe
Sherer, executive president
of Agudath Israel of Amer-
ica.
The Orthodox leader focus-
ed attention on "the stag-
gering figures of gasoline
consumption by masses of
non-observant American
Jews, who use their automo-
bile on Saturday, in violation
of Jewish religious law," and
pleaded with them to "halt
the use of their automobiles
from sunset Friday through
late Saturday."

In Memoriam
In loving memory of
Mollie Bertha Weiss who
passed away Nov. 15, 1971.
Sadly missed and always re-
membered in our hearts by
her loving sister, Inez and
her family.
Such action, he declared,
would be "a demonstrative
act of patriotism as well as
a service to Israel, whose
very existence is being
threatened by the blackthail
of Arab oil-producing coun-
triees."
"And, once the Jewish
masses taste the beauty of
curtailing their weekday ac-
tivities on the Jewish Sab-
bath, they may then be
motivated to more fully ex-
perience the tranquility of
Sabbath rest," Rabbi Sherer
declared.
