not forgotten VINO they are and
long spiritually for the time when
they, too, will be able to kindle
the light in freedom. No celebra-
tions for community are allowed
even for a Jewish community as
large as 100000 Jews in Moscow.
Whatever is done for Judaism must
be done within the secret of their
hearts.
The Khrushchev of today is our
AntiOchus who talks of demOc-
racy and liberty on the one hand
but on the other hand is choking
and squeezing every vestige of
Jewish life.
We must use this holiday to re-
member the plight of our brothers
behind the Iron Curtain. We must
not let that light be extinguished
on this festival, but ever continue
to protest, to the Soviet government
to remind the world of the tragedy
of our people who are almost lost
and forgotten because we can have
no communication with them.
Judaism must fight communism
mot by might nor by power, but
by the spiritual light of the spirit
of the Jew, who is ever kindled the
hope that under God we have a
new birth of freedom, and / con-
tend that as free men our religious
faith can fight against the cancer
of communism which threatens the
freedom and the light of our world.
The triumph of justice Is the
cause of Chanuko, and if we should
lose the meaning of this cause,
then our kindling of the Chanuko
lights has been in vain. Unless we
wrestle with certain issues, right
or wrong, popular or unpopular,
we are not true to the heroic spirit
and lesson taught by our forefa-
theirs.

IA, Israeli have been fortunate
to make some good friends in Kib-
butz. One Is Gidon, a new immi-
grant from Romania. He is on the
Ulpan and speaks good English,
Hungarian, and Romania. Last
weekend was the first holiday for
the Ulpan and went with Gidon
to stay with his parents, who are
also new immigrants. They live in
a government housing settlement in
Rehovot a few miles south of Tel
Aviv.
It was interesting to see how the
new immigrants live and to talk to
them about life in Romania, in Is
rael, and in America.

ernment gave them one Oil lamp +,
no furniture except for three cots,
a dining table and three old chairs.
They borrowed a mattress for Gid
on to sleep on the floor SO that I
could sleep on the bed. Each OF
us had one blanket.
They have been here for 119
mnoths and the mother has found
work as a maid in Tel Aviv max
ing about sos a month. You can
imagine that they had not too much
to eat-salad, bread, tea, and a
little meat and potatoes.
I was very interested in exper-
fencing this life for 21a days and
was very impressed with the
people I met, that they were so
kind to me. They had so little
material wealth but they made me
feel like king.

tie is said in relationship to the
question in terms of Talmudic tra-
ditiOn.
The Talmud records the VIC
tory of the Hasmoneans over the
Greeks. which led to the clean
sing of the Temple. This in turn
led to the miracle of the oil,
cruze of oil sufficient for one day
lasted for eight. Yet Judah the
Maccabee is not even mentioned
by name.
The only requirement is tn e
lighting of candles to commemor-
ate the holiday for eight days.
What has happened in our time
to change a minor holiday into a
major one for Jewish families? 1t
is the season of the year in which
the holiday is celebrated which OF
course has influenced our thinking.
But it is even more than this, for
the Jew has found himself today
facing the severe question of how
to meet overwhelming odds of enc
mics who are out to destrop us as
was done in the time of the Maca-
bees. None of us must forget the
suffering we endured, the tragedy
of a Hitler and Stain.
These make us realize what we
have shared in defeat, but more
Chanuko brings to our minds the
moral victory of the spirit.
In a fascinating and moving
book, Howard Fast represents the
theme of Chanuko. MY Glorious
Brother" shows what the Jew was
faced with at time when An
tiochuS sought to destroy every
vestige of the Jewish spirit. Fast
relates the tragedy of the Macca-
bees was that they saw that the
leaders in Judaism were selling
out to the Greek rulers. How tragic
it was for the Jews to see t n r
own priest initiate the behavior OF
the Greek way of life, forsaking the
Torah and the traditions of our
people.
In the small village of Modin,
Fast relates, five brothers stood
together against evil and fought SO
they could be free men and die as
free men.
Mattahias cried forth to his
people, "Wh0ever is for the law,
follow me-" IL is easy for us to
follow the masses and fail to re-
lect that we, too, have something
to contribute to the world which
is to be champions of the free
dom of conscience and OF the
right to worship the god of our
fathers with a pure heart.
Keepers of the light have we
been through centuries of our his
tory. and even more so today the
same call must come to us to be
keepers of the light in the sense
that we have spiritual mission to
the oppressed and to the underdog.
It is our business today to be a
Maccabee, strong as a hammer, to
stand out against the evils OF our
time. It is for us to triumph the
cause of the little Negro children
who are barred from entering the
classrooms of New Or / e a n
school.
This is the message of Chanuko
that unless we popularize unpop-
ular causes, then we will have fall

For the American Jew, Chanuko
ranks next in Importance to the
High Holy Days and the Passover.
How strange that, according to
Jewish law, a minor festival like
Chanuko became major.
There is no prohibition against
