QUESTION:: Why is it custom
AIRY to soak meat in water before
sailing it according to Jewish
Dietary Laws?
ANSWER: A number of reasons
are offered for this requirement.
One of these reasons offered by
the great Rabbi Nissim states that
the chief object of the soaking is
to soften the meat so that the
blood will be easily drawn out
during the salting process.
Another opinion states that the
purpose is to wash off the blood
which ordinarily adheres to the
surface of the meat, lest the salt
which is applied become drenched
with this blood and fail in its pur-
pose of drawing out the inner
blood.
Still another opinion is offered
by the Great Book of Command
ments which claims that unless
the meat is subjected to a pre-
liminary washing, the ensuing
sailing process will create an eff
feet opposite from the one desired
and that instead of removing the
inner blood it will enable the
surface blood to be absorbed by
way Of it's mineral reaction. The
meat is therefore washed off and
soaked for half hour before salt
ing.
QUESTION: Why is il that if
the meat is not soaked within
three days after the slaughter Of
the animal. it cannot be cooked
for human consumption?
ANSWER: If the meat is left
without soaking or proper wash
ing for more than three days after
the slaughter or after the last
washing, the blood will become
concealed to such an extent that
j it will no longer be possible to
remove it by sailing the meat. If
it did happen that the meat was
neither soaked nor properly
washed within this three-day per-
iod, it may still be broiled for
human consumption even though
cooking it isn't permitted.
= 4 4
QUESTION: Why is il thai
meats which are broiled are moi
subject TO the same regulations
of soaking and sailing?
ANSWER: The broiling process
itself has the effect of drawing
out the blood, just as the soaking
and sailing process does. Thus, if
the meat is broiled in such a way
that the blood can drip down
away from the meat, it is con-
sidered as good as sailing. It is,
however, customary to sprinkle
some salt upon the meat before
broiling. After broiling it is GUS
tomary also to rinse off whatever
blood may have collected on the
surface of the meat.

Communist Paper
Claims Reward for
Data on Dr.. John
BY the Assoeicied Press

BERLIN, Aug. "a Conn
munsit East Berlin newspaper
has put in a claim for the 500.
600 mark ($119,OOO) reward
offered by the West German
government for information
that will clear up the bizarre
case Of DR.. Otto John.
The Berliner Zeitung not only
professed to present the facts
in the disappearance of DR..
John, former West German
security director now in East
Germany, but said yesterday it
would use the reward money to
support the unemployed in allied
West Berlin.
The West German interior
minister, Gerhard Schroeder,
offered the reward Saturday
East Germany has reported DR..
John crossed voluntarily. It
has presented purported broad
casts from him calling for Ger
man unity on Red terms.
The Berliner Zeitung said 1t
Is In a position to "clear UP the
matter thoroughly"
"On July TO-" it said. "Dr.
John went by car, not by the
elevated train, to the democratic
(east) sector of Berlin. The rea-
son: He was Smeared in his post
by reinflated Nazis. Finally, the
minister of the interior made q
broad hint that these Nazis, and
not Herr John. were wanted in
the Office for protection of the
constitution (the security bu-
reau) as well as all other infiuen-
tial positions.
I'VE ask the Minister of the
Interior to send the 500,OOO-
mark reward to our account, No.
1-1865, in the East Berlin City
Bank. After receiving the money,
we will use it for the support Of
