(JTA) The rabbi of Con- — servative congregation Tem- ple Israel has warned his congregants that their daily minyan was being errati- cally attended and that this could mean the end of what he said was the only daily minyan in the state, which has 2,500 Jews. April 30, 1976 53 13th Century Medical Texts Uncovered at Jewish Seminary NEW YORK — Two He- brew copies of an historical, medical-botanical text which standardized drug names and provided new warnings against drug adul- teration to 13th Century doctors and chemists have been uncovered at the li- brary of the Jewish Theo- logical Seminary in New York. Dr. Menahem Schmelzer, Seminary librarian, notes that many historical scien- tific works are available in Hebrew, and that access to them is limited by the rela- tively uncommon incidence of Hebrew knowledge by scientists. The manuscript was located by Dr. Alexan- der Tobias. The New York Botanical Gardens recently an- nounced the acquisition of two rare manuscripts of "Circa Instans" (About the Present), the historic Latin text. According to the 19th Century bibliographer Moritz Steinschneider, the Hebrew versions of this landmark text were more complete in their duplica- tion of the original than Latin manuscripts still available. Dr. Schmelzer said the Seminary's two texts may be the only He- brew ones available in the world. One was transcribed ar- ound 1250, about half a cen- tury after the Botanical Gardens' manuscripts, be- lieved to be the oldest Latin copies. The second, a con- densed version entitled "Sefer Ha-Ezer" (Book of Help), was transcribed in the 1500's. "Circa Instans" is funda- mental in the development of modern botany. It was the first major new work of pharmacology in the post- classical world, incorporat- ing both the problems and knowledge acquired in the early Middle Ages from a variety of national influ- ences. The work was written around 1150 by Matthaeus Platearius, a noted teacher at the School of Salerno, It- aly, the first school of medi- cine in Europe. HIAS Investigates Situation of Jews in South America NEW YORK (JTA) — Carl Glick, HIAS president, and Gaynor I. Jacobson, executive vice president, have just returned from a fact-finding mission to ma- jor Jewish communities in Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Uruguay. According to Glick, a ma- jor concern of HIAS was the well-being of 500,000 Argen- tinian Jews. Under the Per- onist government, the coun- try had suffered from political turmoil, social un- rest and heavy inflation pressures. The HIAS group arrived in Buenos Aires simulta- neously with the revolution- ary takeover by a military government. In support of the new regime, the Jewish community participates in the rebuilding of the coun- try and hopes for an end to instability and urban terror. The Jewish communi- ties of Santiago, Chile and Montevideo, Uruguay are primarily middle class and have suffered serious eco- nomic distress as a result of rampant inflation. The great majority of Jews in Chile and Uruguay sup- port the present military governments. They observed that Brazil afforded its citizens the largest measure of freedom of those nations visited. This was strikingly indicated when a delegation of Brazil- ian Jewish leaders were en- couraged to visit with Presi- dent Ernesto Geisel to express concern about Bra- zil's anti-Zionist vote in the UN in November 1975. Israel Nature Society Prints Quarterly Journal in English TEL AVIV — The Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel has begun publish- ing its quarterly journal' in English, taking major arti- cles from its Hebrew ver- sion. The new journal, "Israel — Land and Nature," de- scribes the organization's efforts "dedicated to foster- ing an intimate acquainance with the land of Israel and to the safeguarding of its natural and historical as- sets." The April issue includes articles on Arabian Bab- bler birds, Bedouin cloth- ing, predicting droughts in the Middle East, the ibex of Ein Gedi, Judean plants and several articles on archeology in Israel. The Society for the Pro- tection of Nature in Israel is described as a non-profit conservation group.
