2 Passover
Events Rally
German Jews
BY SAM MILLER

FRANKFURT - Two Passover
events this year reflect the grow
ing consolidation of the Jewish
community in Germany and the
fact that, taking it's survival for
granted, it is now for the first time
in the postwar era beginning to
come to grips with the problems
of Jewish education and Jewish
youth activities.
Harbinger of the season was a
communal "Study Seder" held in
West Berlin, Munich, and Hanover
several weeks ago. The purpose OF
this experiment was not merely to
acquaint with the customs and the
spirit of the festival those young
sters who, for the most part, grow
up in an utterly non-Jewish envir-
onment. It was also to stimulate
the asking of such Passover ques-
tons" as really move them, and to
provide the answers.
ON PASSOVER itself, a "Youth
Leadership Course" opens in Wem-
bach, in the Black Forest, with a
"Third Seder" arranged.
Some 80 participants attend the
course. They will strive to pass on
to their Jewish comrades what
they have learned about Sabbaths
and festivals, about Israel and
about Jewish problems viewed
against the background of current
events. about Jewish literature and
music, about group pedagogics and
methods of arranging children's

prodigy who broke down. But if
they assumed an attitude of sophis-
ticated skepticism on his arrival,
most had passed to real accept
ance of the Messiah's message on
his departure.
It is when the Messiah announ-

guests without knowing, drop their
