CZECH JEWISH
COMMUNITY
MUSEUM PIECE

LONDON (JTA) = The Jewish
community of Czechoslovakia is
neither allowed to live nor allow
ed to die," H. A. Goodman, Agudas
Israel leader, declared here upon
his return from an extensive visit to
that community. He characterized
the Jewish community of Prague
as a museum piece"
There are some 10000 Jews reg
istered with communities, about
$4,000 in Slovakia and 5000 in Bo-
henia. In addition, he estimated
that there were another 10000 un-
affiliated Jews in CzechoSlovakia.
There are, he said, more intermar-
riages than unions in which both
partners were Jewish.
Goodman reported that the Alt
Neu Synagogue, Prague'S 1000
year old synagogue, was open for
worship every day, during his visit,
but he rarely saw more than a
bare minyan = 10 - of worshipperS
in it.

Bishop
BOOKS IN the latter group seem
to reach the reprint market with
startling speed, perhaps because
of their sensationalism.
"a glance at the 25-cent reprint
titles dealing with Jews, says Mey-
er Levin, would convince anyone
that the vast majority of Jews in
this country are gangsters, cheats,
lechers, murdererS
"Should a Jew, then, hesitate TO
write about bad Jews? Of course
not. But he must take into account
his potential audience and make
sure that his full meaning about
the Jewish people cannot be mis-
understood.
CHE MUST be able to feel that
he has somehow given balanced
portrait, so that even if his char
acter is bad his badness cannot
be taken to typify Jewish charact-
er as a whole"
Well now, it is obvious that not
all Jewish writer's feel that their
writing must reflect sense of the
responsibility for their whole peo-
pie. In the same issue of "Ameri-
can Judaism" Robbins replies to
Levin. insisting upon the writer's
privilege of expressing himself
with complete freedom, subject to
no censorship or repression.
And Bishop says, II write about
people. What matter their names
or colors, their birthplace, their
prideS, or prejudioes, their wonder
ment' or innocence, where they live
or suffer, their voyages or vegeta-
tons? They are people and must
be written about"
THE READER wonders, does not
the writer have an obligation to
use his literary gift for the benefit
of his people, or must he, because
he is an artist, be allowed to ex-
press himself without restraint?
Bishop concludes his argument
by saying, 81 ask you, the readers

Having expressed a desire to
know more about the rabbinical
legal tradition and its emphasis on
moral law, Justice Warren was in
vited to attend a three-day study
session at the Seminary this
month.
AMONG THE many subjects dis
cussed was the Mishnaic view of
Self-incrimination; if there is no
other evidence or witness against
an accused, he cannot testify
against himself.
Justice Warren commented
Protection against Self-incrimina-
ton is perhaps not as sacred now
as in ancient times"
But he noted that our Constitu-
tons Fifth Amendment, as well as
its provision for protection against
double jeopardy, reflect the Tai
mudic concern with the rights Of
