Seven Arts Feature Haifa — Researchers at Techn- ion's Center for the Safety of Men at Work have recently directed their efforts toward the problem of back pain. According to the re- search, 70 percent of workers ex- perience back pain in Israel's in- dustries, and some 200 million people suffer from back pain around the world. Dr. Isaschar Gilad, biomedical engineer, has introduced an element of "human engineering" into the study, view- ing the body as a special kind of machine. "We simply must learn its limitations," he explains. AUTHORIZED SALES & REPAIRS 772-4350 During my recent visit to Brazil, I was both relieved and impressed by the strength of or- ganized Jewish communal and religious life, especially in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. I was L--7, relieved because much of the -9 media reporting on- Brazilian Jewry (and Latin American Jewry generally) concentrates on anti-Semitic episodes and/or PLO activity. Those reports, out of con- > text, leave the impression that Brazilian Jews are living on a vol- cano about to erupt. That simply is not the case. Brazil is a multi-cultural society — Portuguese, Indian and black African — and does not have a strong European Christian ,D theological tradition of anti- Semitism as does Argentina. As ,Y-- Justice Ministry officials told my colleague, Jacobo Kovadloff and me, they will not tolerate any anti-Semitic activity. Brazilian Jews are concerned, however, over the fact that Brazil, with its crushing international debt, is heavily dependent on Arab petro-dollars and Arab oil, particularly from Iraq and Saudi Arabia. There are some five mil- lion Arabs in Brazil and an active PLO movement. While vigilant over their PLO's anti-Israel activities, Brazilian Jewry is mainly preoccupied with internal Jewish life — stemming intermarriage and assimilation, and nurturing the commitments of young Jews to Judaism and to Israel.
