Growing in U. 5.
and England

LONDON (JTA)-A warning
that anti-Semitism Is On the in
crease in the United States and
Great Britain was sounded here
at the opening OF the four-day In
terrational Conference On Human
Rights, which is being attended
by 50 delegates from Is countries
L Ira Latimer, Of the Chicago
Civil Liberties Committee said
that "anti-Senitism IS active In
the Z. s. particularly IN large
cities with large Catholic popula-
tons and among orthodox funda-
mentalist Protestant sects, especi-
ally in the South"
L C. White. chairman OF the
National Civil Liberties, which
called the conference, stressed
that the problem Of anti-Semitism
in Britain is becoming '-increas-
ingly disturbing" He recommend
ed that the conference discuss
how far freedom OF expression
should be allowed 70 those using
it TO foster hatred and contempt
against those whose only crime is
that they are Jews.
The Polish delegate, Col Marian
Muszkat, said that Poland was
protecting Jews by special laws
and cited the courts martial OF
persons spreading race hatred.
He added that conditions for Jews
in his country were improving
daily, and that fascist terrorist
gangs have been almost complete
" wiped out.

primitive form was connected
with marriage and that the prim-
tive societies generally selected
the age Of puberty for the rite.
QUESTION: What are the rea-
sons and advantages of this rite
that make it 50 imperative in
Jewish Observance
ANSWER: We have stated in
answer TO the previous question
that the Bible looks upon this rite
as the symbol OF the Covenant
between Cd and the People Of
Israel This seems TO be the basic
Jewish reason Through the ages.
however. many other reasons have
been added TO give meaning and
purpose 10 the rite which seems
10 be both the oldest and the most
widely performed surgical oper-
alton known Writers like PhiIo,
Josephus and Saadia have found
in this ritual a hygienic motive.
This is borne out by late medical
analysis. The overhanging fore
skin is breeding place for germs
which often lead to infection.
Medical investigation has shown
that q person who is not circurn-
cized is subject TO a malady term
ed Phimosis Inability to with
draw the foreskin whenever nee
essary). This condition leads TO
many other troubles. In extreme
cases gangrene and liberation
have been traced TO this difficulty.
Maimonodies has seen in this
z prevention Of excessive
lust Some have seen in Circum-
cision q sacrifical symbol. Rosen-
"eig was so impressed with the
practice that he recommended in I
1878 that the entire Prussian /
army be circumcised. The Bible !
tself has many q time clad the /
ritual with deep spiritual signif- /
canoe. For example the statement |
n Deuteronomy *, 49, "Circum-
lie the foreskin Of your heart" |
displays the act Of circumcision
rot only as the cleansing of the |
body but as symbol of the
cleansing Of the soul.
