To Halt All Hostilities
New
Jewish
Bible
By LEE LINDER
Associated Press Religion Writer
PHILADELPHIA-A new Jewish
Bible, first ever translated into
modern English directly from the
ancient Hebrew text, says Moses
didn't really cross the Red Sea
and revises the Third Command-
ment to condemn perjury, not
profanity of God's name.
The new book, to be published
Jan. 28, says Moses led the Child-
ren of Israel out of Egypt through.
the parted waters of the Sea of
Reeds, a marshy area near the
Red Sea and not far from the
present Suez Canal.
There are many other sweeping
changes in this Bible, known as
"The Torah, the Five Books of
Moses."
Five Books
Actually, The Torah-containing
Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Num-
bers and Deuteronomy-is the first
of three scheduled volumes of the
Holy Scriptures, commonly known
together as the Old Testament.
The other-prophets and writings
-are to be completed by 1975.
The new English translation
virtually eliminates the word
"soul," and it provides an entirely
new meaning to the expression
"with all my heart," asserting the
phrase doesn't imply loyalty or
devotion, as previously understood,
but rather means agreement.
The translators said they took
advantage of new archaeological
discoveries in the Holy Land-in
Israel and surrounding Arab na-
tions-to interpret the original
Hebrew.
The first words of Genesis now
are "when God began to create the
Heaven and the Earth." The old
version, published in 1917, started
"In the beginning God created
the Heaven and the Earth."

It was the fourth United States
failure in five high altitude at-
tempts. The Atomic Energy Com-
mission said there were no reports
of injuries and no danger to per-
sonnel.
Although radar tracking had
failed to show the fragments re-
turning to earth, a check discov-
ered a number of small pieces, the
largest two by eight inches..They
contained some Alpha radioactive
contamination.
The AEC said no hazard to test
personnel was anticipated and or-
dered clearing of debris from the
island.

Cites Treaty
As 'Hopeful'
Agreement May Lead
Towards Unification
UNITED NATIONS (1) - The
United States and Britain wel-
comed a cease-fire agreement
signed yesterday between Katan-
ga and Congolese armed forces
as a step toward implementation
of acting Secretary-General U
Thant's Congo unity plan.
United Nations sources close to
Thant said the agreement signed
in Elisabethville, capital of seces-
sionist Katanga province, was an
encouraging sign. But they cau-
tioned also against making too
much out of it at this stage.
The agreement provides for a
freezing of troop movements by
the central Congolese army and
the Katanga gendarmerie of Pres-
ident Moise Tshombe pending ar-
rangements for their integration.
Ends Sporadic Hositlities
Under the agreement both sides
will receive medical supplies, fuel
and food supplies under UN guar-
antee. It also calls for an exchange
of prisoners. It ends year-old spor-
adic hostilities in North Katanga
that were a major source of fric-
tion in the Congo.
Still to be worked out is a
means of obtaining a pledge of
allegiance by the Katanga gen-
darmerie to the Congolese Army.
UN military observers on the scene
said they were hopeful this would
be put on the dotted line today.
A spokesman for the United
States delegation hailed the agree-
ment as a hopeful development
that might pave the way for the
long sought unification of the Con-
go. He noted that there is still a
long way to go before that is
achieved.
Similar Reaction
British reaction was similar.
Both the U.S. and Britain along
with Belgium support Thant's plan
for Congo unity.
Word that the agreement was
imminent.caused U.S. Ambassador
Adlai E. Stevenson to tell Presi-
dent John F. Kennedy on Sunday
there is now some hope of working
out a solution in the Congo. Stev-
enson also had optimistic report
from George C. McGhee, under-
secretary for political affairs whc
is in the Congo U.S. sources said
UN officials working to imple-
ment Thant's plan were taking a
wait-and-see attitude. Under th
plan Katanga's mineral revenues
would be shared on a 50-50 basi
with the Central Government. A
constitution for a Federal Cong
would be worked out and the Ka
tanga Gendarmerie would b
merged with the central army.
Another complicating factor wa

SAIGON (M)-Another American spotter plane went down Mon-
day in South Viet Nam's rugged central highlands where Viet Cong
ground gunners earlier had shot down two United States planes.
Three American fliers died in one plane supporting an intensive
government raid.
It was not known immediately whether the third plane fell vic-
tim to Communist fire. The American pilot of the third plane was
reported injured. In ground ac-
tion, an American major was
wounded severely in an explosion.

Kohler Sees
Khrushchev
In Moscow
MOSCOW (Y)-Foy D. Kohler,
the new United States ambassador
to Moscow, yesterday had his first
conference with Premier Nikita
Khrushchev since taking up his
post.
A brief communique said they
talked for three hours -in the
Kremlin in an atmosphere of sin-
cerity and mutual understanding.
"They touched important in-
ternational issues and also ques-
tions of Soviet-American rela-
tions," the communique added. It
seemed certain that the Berlin
problem was high on the agenda.
Seeks Appointment
The meeting and the announce-
ment that in New York, Soviet
Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gro-
myko sought an appointment with
President John F. Kennedy in
Washington Thursday came amid
faint signs that the Kremlin is
becoming worried about the strong
American reaction against Soviet
activities in Cuba and Berlin.
Those in Moscow who hold this
view noted a tempering in Soviet
press attacks against the Western
garrisons in Berlin.
Other Westerners here disputed
the idea of a softening in the So-
viet cold war position.
They said any signs of Soviet
moderation have been canceled out
by the Kremlin's hard line in the
Geneva nuclear test ban talks, by
its rocket rattling over Cuba and
its mounting threat to sign a sep-
arate peace treaty with Communist
East Germany.

WASHINGTON - Congressional
advocates of federal aid to educa-
tion are wondering if the eruption
of the religious issue in the 87th
Congress has blighted indefinitely
their chances to pass legislation.
Three senators who long have
pushed for such bills say that the
fight to win passage of education
legislation would be renewed in the
19634 session.
But they agreed that prospects
are highly uncertain, in large part
because of the bitterness arising
from the injection of religious
questions into the debates over
school bills in 1961-62.
Biggest Segment
President John F. Kennedy ask-
ed the 87th for six major educa-
tion bills, but none passed. This
was the biggest segment of his
program to go down the drain in
the first Congress of his adminis-
tration.
Playing a key role in the defeats
was the question of whether
church connected schools should
receive grants along with the pub-
lic institutions, or be limited to
loans.
Many legislators argued that
grants to private schools were un-
constitutional, a violation of the
doctrine of separation of church
and state.
Private Institutions
But others from districts with
heavy Catholic populations declin-
ed .to support grants for public
schools unless aid for the private
institutions was put on the same
basis.
Secretary of Health, Education,
and Welfare Anthony J. Cele-
brezze, who took office after most
of the bills were stymied, has said
.......
I
the administration will push for
all of them next year.
But Sen. Joseph S. Clark (D-
Pa), a member of the Senate edu-
cation subcommittee, says he fears
the result would be another stale-
mate unless the Democrats add a
number of seats in the House in
next month's election.
Same Trouble
Sen. Patrick V. McNamara (D-
Mich), also on the subcommittee,
says "we'll try again but I don't
know how it will come out. I ex-
pect we may have some of the
same troubles we had this time."
Sen. Jacob K. Javits (R-NY)
says the fight must be made again
because "the need is clearly there."
But it will take a strong biparti-
san effort to afford any chance
of success, he said.
"The religious issue was inject-
ed into aid for colleges this year
for the first time," he said. "It
has caused trouble on aid for ele-
mentary and high schools for a
long time. I don't see how we can
overcome it."

OSLO-Premier Einar Gerhardsen questioned yesterday the le-
gality and effectiveness of the U.S. government's plans to crack down
on Western ships carrying Communist supplies to Cuba.
"The reportedly planned steps must be termed rather wide-rang-
ing in a situation where there is no declaration of war or blockade,"
he said in a speech in the Storting (parliament).
"There are also reasons to question the legality of the steps if they
are enforced in the form which has been suggested. The Norwegian
government is concerned over a development where shipping is being
drawn in as a means of political pressure.

NAACP Announces Drive
Against Job Discrimination
WASHINGTON (JP)-The National Association for the Advance-
