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.
