Travel Suit
Is Rejected
NEW YORK (JTA) —
The U.S. Supreme Court
has left standing the dis-
missal by lower courts of a
suit challenging the low
cost travel programs oper-
ated by Jewish and non-
Jewish non-profit organiza-
tions.
The suit was brought by
the American Society and
12 individual travel agents
against the Department of
the Treasury, seeking revo-
cation of tax-exempt status
for the non-profit groups.

The Message of Passover
Editor, The Jewish News:
I toured the Middle East
in 1977 and visited the
Jewish community of Cairo.
The huge synagogue, with
its gates locked and
chained, was deserted on a
Sabbath morning.
An alleyway led us into
the sanctuary, and the three
men in our group completed
the minyan. The sanctuary,
with its lofty balcony, could
easily seat 700-900 people.

Happy Birthday

Love You So Much

How sad I felt with the
few pitiful, surviving Egyp-
tian Jews, in the "Jews'
Church of Cairo" as it is cal-
led.
The message of Passover
is that Jews are still seeking
freedom and rights, human
rights.

Historic Rights
Editor, The Jewish News:
The stance Premier
Menahem Begin has taken
is, and should be, beyond
any shadow of a doubt to
any and all righteous per-
sons.
The land of Heroes
(Giborim) that Israel has
liberated since 1948 is con-
tractural according to the
Scriptures — Eretz Yisrael
— the Land of Israel since
the time of Abraham, Isaac
and Jacob.

Praise for Meals
Editor, The Jewish News:
I am a recipient of
Meals-on-Wheels five days
per week and I am very
grateful to the National
Council of Jewish Women,
who I understand are
greatly responsible for
these services.
The services of these vol-
unteers deserve the highest
praise. They are offering a
service that is very neces-
sary for many seniors citi-
zens:

Singer Book Hit
Editor, The Jewish News:
In your March 24 issue
you have an article, "Singer
Autobiography Delightful."
Yet the reviewer, Warren
Freedman, says that Isaac
Bashevis Singer is not at his
best: one character lacks
conviction and another is
not credible. A third "does
not ring true."
How can Friedman call
this book, and its subject
matter, delightful?
