THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Great talent for conversa-
tion should be accompanied
with great politeness. He
who eclipses others owes
them great civilities; and,
whatever mistaken vanity
1
may tell us, it is better to
please in conversation than
to shine in it.

JERUSALEM— Hebrew
University of Jerusalem
has bestowed the title of
Honorary Fellow on Dr.
Morton Mayer Berman, 82,
an American Reform rabbi
who immigrated to Israel
nearly 25 years ago.
Born in Baltimore and
ordained by the Jewish In-
stitute of Religion in 1926,
Rabbi Berman served Re-
form temples in New York
and Chicago for more than
25 years.
He was a founding
member of the Association
of Reform Zionists of
America and played an im-
portant role in the efforts
which led to the embracing
of Zionism by the American
Reform movement and its
subsequent official support
for the state of Israel.
He held leading posi-
tions in major national
Jewish organizations in
the U.S., and is the author
of a number of books on
Judaism.
He turned his ideal of
Zionism into practical ac-
tion when he settled in Is-
rael with his family in 1957
and continued working for
the solidarity of world
Jewry with Israel as direc-
Go
TEL AVIV (JTA) — The
first application of solar
power for commercial pur-
poses began in Israel last
week.
A specially built com-
puter activated 500-square
meters of solar energy col-
lectors to produce steam
running an electric
generator at the Tapud food
factory in Shaar Hanegev.
The product: French fried
potatoes.
The solar power plant,
known as the Luz system or
LS-I, was designed by Ar-
nold Goldman, an engineer
who recently immigrated
from the U.S. American ex-
perts described it as the
most efficient solar
generator in the world. The
Tapud factory is the first to
use it on a commercial basis.
The system is composed of
a battery of long parabolic
mirrors in the form of
troughs which reflect sun-
light on an oil-filled pipe in
the center of the trough. The
liquid in the pipe absorbs
the sun's heat and trans-
forms it into steam energy
at temperatures of up to 250
degrees C. The computer
keeps the troughs pointed
directly at the sun for
maximum efficiency.

TEL AVIV (JNI) — The
Ministry of Labor and So-
cial Affairs last week re-
vealed its plan to increase
the proportion of women in
the Israeli labor force from
36 to 45 percent by 1990.
According to ministry
sources, 78 percent of all
women with over 14 years of
schooling are employed,
matching the male rate in
this education bracket.
Unemployment among
women declined somewhat
this year to 6.4 percent. The
male jobless rate stands at
4.6 percent.
