At the same time Rabbi
Gottlieb stressed the im-
portance of using shmura
matza on Passover. The
word shmura, which
means watched in He-
brew, is used to describe
these matzot because the
wheat used in their bak-
ing is carefully watched
and protected against
any contact with water
from the moment of har-
vest on. Water would
cause leavening and thus
disqualify its use on
Passover. It is recom-
mended that shmura
matza be used for the
Seder.

NEW YORK (JTA) —
The rabbi of one of the na-
tion's major Sephardic
synagogues has asserted
that not only would Or-
thodox Jewry not welcome
the disappearance of Con-
servative and Reform
Judaism, but also that the
Orthodox movement
"should be frightened by
such a possibility."
Marc Angel, rabbi of New
York's Spanish and Por-
tuguese Synagogue, took
that position as a partici-
pant in a symposium on
"The State of Orthodoxy"
publication of the Rabbini-
cal Council of America, a
major Orthodox rabbinical
association.
There was widespread
agreement that Conserva-
tive and Reform Judaism
will not disappear soon and
several of the participants
shared Rabbi Angel's view
that any such disappear-
ance would be bad for all
Jews.
Rabbi Robert Hirt,
dean of the communal
services division of
Yeshiva University, as-
serted that "the use of
code words and public
denigration of non-
Orthodox movements
lead us to a heightened
polarization which dis-
courages open, search-
ing, non-Orthodox Jews
from identifying with Or-
thodox institutions."
He said Orthodox leaders
"would do better to project
educational and lifestyle
strengths rather than
broadcast triumphalist
broadsides."
There was widespread
agreement among the par-
ticipants that the network
of Hebrew day schools in the
United States and Canada
is Orthodoxy's main
achievement. One of the
failures listed is the low pay
scales in many of those
schools which makes it hard
to attract talented teachers.
Sir Immanuel
Jakobovitz, chief rabbi of
the British Commonwealth,
said, "Orthodoxy's greatest
During World War II,
Jews had the highest per-
centage of the nationality
group serving in the Soviet
army, and also had the

failures are to be found in its
fragmentation and con-
sequent impotence as a
cohesive force to match and
overtake the communal ef-
fectiveness of the non-
Orthodox."
