"It's impossible to do this with-
out developing an attachment (to
those who died in the Holocaust),"

ly devoted to these cases." He
not only knows the history, he
has a profound grasp on what it
means that millions of men,
women and children perished at
the hands of the Nazis. "He has
seen it, heard it and he knows
what it means."

We'll pay you
to help us move to our
new gallery.
Why would you want this job?
Because the financial rewards are excellent and the
fringe benefits are outstanding.
Those fringes, you see, are on the edges of one-of-a-

Persians and Orientals.
Your assignment is to help us reduce moving costs.
We've outgrown our Birmingham quarters and are

profit-sharing in appreciation for our success.
So come and see how you can save while helping us
save. And don't worry about having to carry rugs
around. As Walter Mondale said when asked why
he accepted the vice-presidency: "It's mostly inside
work and there's no heavy lifting."

Congressional staff members
and policy makers comprised the
majority of the participants, all
of whom received a firsthand look
at Israeli education and an op-
