HOME/page 6
Most of the workers are very
attentive and caring —
remember, the residents are
not the workers' loved ones.
The Home has an open-door
policy: you can visit any time
of the day or night. The food
is well balanced and attrac-
tively served with individual
needs and tastes considered;
and residents also are given
morning, afternoon and even-
ing snacks.
The dining room is open for
tea time with guests. There
are always activities for the
residents — bingo, movies,
Jewish music, dancing, arts
and crafts, Shabbat and Holi-
day services and programs,
ice cream socials, etc. Many
volunteers provide assistance.
Recently, a health care pro-
fessional who provides ser-
vices to Borman and other
homes said to me, "If they are
closing Borman, then it is on-
ly because someone wants it
closed. That Home is far
superior to most of the homes
that I visit."
At the present time, the
Home is in a state of
upheaval. There have been
frequent changes of the top
administrators. With all of
the outside help that has
been brought in, and with the
long hours that the regular
staff is working, it is hard to ,
believe that the violations,
whatever they are, can not be
corrected.
Why are they working so
hard and getting nowhere?
Do they lack proper direction?
It appears that someone does
not want them to succeed.
Our question is, "Who, and
why not?"
If true, the rumor that
Federation wants to "get out
of the nursing care" business
is unbelievable and a shan-
dah. Our Jewish community
supports two Jewish Centers
— one of them a very elabo-
rate structure. We support
Israel and the new
Americans; we provide senior
citizen housing, feed the
hungry, support Jewish
education and aid the mental-
ly impaired.
We should do all of these
things and surely we should
also continue to provide a
high quality Jewish facility
for our sick and elderly
parents and grandparents.
It is unthinkable that the
Jewish community would
desert our elderly.

The Good Aleph
And The Bet
-
M-S 9-6
Sun. 12-5
I take exception to Rabbi Mor-
ton Yolkut's Torah Portion
(Oct. 23) regarding the letters
aleph and bet as they are us-
ed in the biblical account of
creation.
I object specifically to his
assertion in paragraph three
that according to the
Midrash, bet is the language
of blessing and aleph is the
language of curse and to his
subsequent bolstering of this
assertion through his own
arguments.
I have seen the Almighty's
name beginning with aleph
(for example in the very first
verse of the Torah, Genesis
1:1), but never with bet. In-
deed there is a remarkably
long list of key biblical words
that begin with aleph:
The first human's name was
Adam; it begins with aleph.
The first Hebrew's name was
Abraham; it begins with
aleph. The Holy Land (aretz).
Truth is the most revered
word in every language; in
Hebrew it begins with aleph.
When Moses asked the
Almighty for his name, He
answered in three words: "I
will be what I will be," a
sentence that begins with
aleph. The greatest moral
code of humanity, the Ten
Commandments that Moses
brought down from Mt. Sinai
on two tablets, begins with
aleph .. .
This is by no means an ex-
haustive list of biblical words
of holiness and positive im-
portance that begin with
aleph, but it should suffice to
suggest that aleph is not a
letter that one may simply
associate with curses in
biblical usage.

Pollard's Plight
Splits Organizations
At the 32nd Zionist Congress
held in Jerusalem last sum-
mer, I, as national director of
Techiya USA and a delegate
from the United States,
presented a resolution sup-
porting Jonathan Pollard.
Despite opposition from the
Hadassah/Confederation of
United Zionists delegates, the e
resolution was passed in com-
mittee and then by the
general session by a wide
margin.
The text of the resolution,
Number 420, is: "The 32nd
World Zionist Congress calls 1
upon all Jewish and Zionist
organizations to embrace the
cause of justice for Jonathan
Pollard and his early release
from prison."
,
I am very pleased for the
sake of Mr. Pollard that this
Congress and the World
Zionist Organization have
