Warsaw Ghetto
visitor is the National
Historic Institute, adjoining
the Great Synagogue de-
stroyed by the Nazis. The
graceful building housing the
Institute was rebuilt in the
past few years, and contains
a remarkable exhibit of the
Holocaust, the Warsaw Ghet-
to saga, and religious and
secular Jewish art objects.
Sponsored by the Polish
Academy of Sciences, it is
privately administered, and
its archives are among the
finest in Europe. The library
contains more than 40,000
volumes in Yiddish, Hebrew
and Latin, and one has the
rare privilege of seeing the
original of the diary of
Emanuel Ringelblum, the
chronicler of the dark days of
Warsaw Ghetto life. He scrib-
bled his immortal story on
scraps of paper, now lovingly
preserved in the archives.
The Institute may well be
called the Yad Vashem of

Bargain Buyers Flock
To Jaffa Flea Market
Jerusalem — Antiques, ar-
tifacts and junk. It's all for
sale at the Flea Market in
Jaffa. If you want a pair of
left-handed boxing gloves or
a framed portrait of Golda
Meir, this is the place to
come.
People are selling every
imaginable item on the prem-
ise, that if one person has no
further use for it, there must
be someone else who will
value and treasure it. This
philosophy encourages the
display of some dubious 'trea-
sures' - nails and screws, taps
and lengths of piping.
The Flea Market is perhaps
most famous for its vast
stores of second hand furni-
ture. There are half a dozen
warehouses with room after
room piled high and overflow-
ing with desks and bookcases,
coffee tables and chairs.
The market is full of un-
likely characters buying and
selling. The somewhat disre-
putable fellow selling after-
shave lotions and perfumes
does a roaring trade.
People stop and show each
other their purchases. Young
girls wander down the two
narrow arcades which sell
cheap fashions and jewelry.
Long-suffering husbands
stand around resignedly
while their wives rummage
feverishly for genuine an-
tiques and bargains.
The Middle Eastern art of
bargaining is very much the
accepted form of trading. The
first thing to do is let the
salesman know that you do
not want to buy his beautiful
burnished copper pot. Walk
away appalled at the price he
wants for it and he of course
will entice you back with a
slightly lower price. Then
negotiations can really begin.

Warsaw, and it provides a
moving experience in a
journey to this country in-
habited by the ghosts of a
turbulent past as well as the
current generation of a
relative handful of Jews.
This is a period of relative
calm in a land that has seen
confrontations between
church and state, and be-
tween the authorities and
many of its citizens.
In the material sphere,
there is a definite increase in
the standard of living, with
food and clothing in abun-
dance; and the blight of
Western-like traffic jams due
to a plentitude of automo-
biles. Poles are reaching out
for "the good life," and Jews
one never knew existed
(because they have concealed
their faith) packed the
synagogues during the High
Holidays in a fleeting
testimonial to their martyred
people.

The languages of the mar-
ket are Hebrew, Arabic and
Yiddish, though all traders
speak English, French and
other European tongues. But
regardless of the language in
which you conduct your busi-
ness and whether you end up
buying what you wanted or
fall for something wildly ex-
travagent, the Flea Market
will have bitten you. And
chances are you'll find all
manner of excuses to leave
sophisticated Tel Aviv, jump
on a bus to Jaffa and visit it
again.

Stabbing Victim
Recovering
lel Aviv (JTA) — The stab-
bing attack on 66-year-old

salem's Old City last week
was carried out despite a

closed in an Israel Radio
interview.

Jew, was assaulted near the
Damascus Gate on his way
from prayers at the Western
Wall to his home in the Mea
Shearim quarter outside the
Old City walls. He was
treated at Hadassah Hospital

covering.

tack.
