A special candle was lit by Phil-

hands of the Nazis. An additional
candle was lit by Simon Schwarzberg
in memory of slain Israeli soldiers
and civilians.
Cantor Hyman Adler of B'nai
David chanted the El Moleh
Rachamim and other memorial ren-
ditions. Cantor Max Shimansky of
Cong. Beth Achim also contributed to
the musical protion of the program,
accompanied by Lillian Zellman.
Non-vocal musical selections were
performed by Eric Rosenow on piano
and Charles Weiner on clarinet.
Rabbi Morton Yolkut, spiritual
leader of B'nai David, gave an ad-
dress in which he brought closer to
home what he called "the enormity of
the outrage." He said that the fig-
ures, six million dead, 1.5 million
children dead, were hard to fathom,
but when the tragedy focuses on one
little boy, "the agony of death — we
understand."
He asked rhetorically: how do
the Jews respond to a Titus, the In-
quisition, to Hitler, to Arafat and to
Qaddafi? He replied, "Am Yisroel
Chai — the Jewish People Lives."
He recalled a comment by
Presidential candidate Rev. Jesse
Jackson who asked how long the
Jews would mourn the victims of the
Holocaust.
"We will carry our sacred burden
till our duty is discharged," Rabbi
Yolkut said, describing incidents in
which Jews throughout the world are
persecuted, harassed and even killed.
He said the Jews will continue to re-
call the Holocaust victims "until
every enemy of our people is
crushed."
Rabbi Charles Rosenzveig, di-
"If the initiation of a calendar is
indicative of the end of a dark period
or of a new beginning, then the
Holocaust is the right time. We need
a new counting, a new period and a
new day and the end of the Holocaust
is that beginning."
Greetings were brought from the
Jewish Community Council's
Holocaust subcommittee by Mrs. Eli
Robinson, chairman; by Gustav Be-
renholz, treasurer of the memorial
