THE JEWISH NEWS

Clinton Speaks
At Ceremony

Washington (JTA) — At a
Havdalah service held at the
floodlit Jefferson Memorial
here, President Clinton
spoke to members of B'nai
B'rith about the importance
of religious freedom in
America.
The event, billed as the
first religious ceremony to
take place at the memorial,
was part of B'nai B'rith's
weeklong 150th anniversary
commemoration.
In the United States,
"more people put religion at
the center of their lives"
than in "any other advanced
society on Earth," Mr. Clin-
ton said.
Just as Jews separate
Shabbat from the rest of the
week, so should all Ameri-
cans separate and "keep our
faiths free from government
coercion," the president told
the approximately 650 par-
ticipants at the service.
Under clear, chilly skies,
Mr. Clinton and other
speakers paid tribute to
Thomas Jefferson, whom
Clinton called "the father of
religious freedom in
America."
Mr. Clinton spoke from a
podium directly in front of
the Jefferson statue, which
stands in the middle of the
monument's marble pillars,
creating a dramatic effect for
the onlookers.
He paid tribute to B'nai
B'rith, speaking of the
group's long "struggle
against bigotry and in-
justice."
He noted that B'nai B'rith
had opened a hospital
decades ago in his hometown
of Hot Springs, Ark., that
"still serves hundreds"
without regard to their abil-
ity to pay.
And he praised the group
for its work in helping vic-
tims of floods and earth-
quakes, both in the United
States and abroad.
Mr. Clinton also spoke of
his administration's com-
mitment to a comprehensive
peace settlement in the Mid-
dle East, one in which
"Israel achieves lasting
peace" with all its
neighbors.
And on the domestic front,
the president said he was
"very proud of the coopera-
tion I have seen in the
United States" between
Jewish and Arab Americans
trying to "make peace
work."
Jewish writer Leon Uris,
author of the novel Ex-
odus,also addressed the
crowd. 0
