Annual Parley
NEW YORK — More
than 1,000 Jewish com-
munal workers from every
major city in the United
States will attend the 77th
annual meeting of the Na-
- tional Conference of Jewish
Communal Service to be
held June 8-11 at Grossin-
ger's in New York.
The conference theme is
"Translating Jewish Com-

Not Now, When?"
The NCJCS is comprised
of eight associate groups
whose members represent
the major aspects of Jewish
communal service — Jewish
centers; community organi-
zations; community rela-
tions; family, children's and
health services; homes for
the aged; synagogue admin-
istration; Jewish education;
and vocational and rehabili-
tation services.
The conference will in-
clude both plenary sessions

ics of general interest, and
more than 120 special ses-
sions devoted to the con-
cerns of specific groups.

According to the Encyclo-
paedia Judaica. the initial
phase of atomic energy de-
velopment in Israel con-
sisted of two enterprises.
The first was a survey of the
natural resources of the
country, particularly with
respect to the nuclear raw
materials uranium and
thorium. Only low-grade
deposits, primarily asso-
ciated with phosphate
rocks, were located. •
The second enterprise
was the initiation of a train-
ing program to provide the
necessary scientific and
technical staff for possible
application of atomic energy
to the national economy.
The next phase was the
establishment of the Israel
Atomic Energy Commis-
sion in 1952. The members
of the commission include
men prominent in science,

The first research center
was lcicated in temporary
quarters near Rehovot, and
later moved to its present
site at Sorek. The major fa-
cility at the Sorek Research
Center is a swimming-pool-
type reactor acquired with
the assistance of the U.S.
under the 1955 Atoms for
Peace Program, states the
Encyclopedia Judaica. This
reactor became operational
in 1960.
Other facilities at Sorek
include hot laboratories,
and research laboratories
for physics and chemistry,
as well as health-physics,
electronics and mechanical
services. A Radioisotope
Training Center, a joint

venture, was also estab-
lished at Sorek to provide
basic training in the tech-
niques and applications of
radioactivity.
A second nuclear research
center was established at
D-imona, some 25 miles
southeast of Beersheba. It
was designed to provide bet-

Israel is a member of the
International Atomic En-

participates actively in var-
ious international pro-
grams. Her experts have
been sent to various coun-
tries (Brazil, Costa Rica,
Formosa, Greece, Kenya,
Romania, and Uganda) to
help in establishing atomic
energy programs or to help
in various applications. In-
ternational courses are held
in Israel at the Sorek Nu-
