Committee APpIauds Passage
Of NucLeOr Test Ban Treaty

NEW YORK - The American
Jewish Committee, pioneer hu-
man relations agency, ex-
pressed profound apprecia-
ton" to the 80 senators who
had voted affirmatively on the
Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.
In a letter signed by A. M.
Sonnabend of Boston, president
of the committee, the human re-
lations organization stressed
that Lasting peace can only be
achieved through the develop
ment of international agree
ments on specific areas of dam
ger and conflict"
In safeguarding human rights
for all, the Committee declared:
/" We cannot fail to recognize
that there can be no human
rights without humans, and that
our efforts for furthering mans
understanding of his fellow man
can only continue within
framework of peace with free
DOM"
The following is the full text
of the letter:
1.-THE American Jewish Com
mittee warmly welcomes your
affirmative vote on the Nuclear
Test Ban Treaty. In behalf OF
our officers and members, we
are pleased to extend to you
our profound appreciation for
helping to make possible this
first significant step in the path
of peace among mep and ma
tons. We recognize that last
ing peace can only be achieved
through the development of in
ternational agreements concern
ing specific areas of danger
ard conflict.
Clearly, this treaty, welcome
as it is, cannot be construed as
universal panacea which will
resolve all tensions or put an
end to the terrible danger of
war. Yet, most important to all

The festival occurs five
days after Yom Kippur DAY
of Atonement) which con-
cludes the most sacred ten
day period of repentance in
the Jewish calendar. Sukos,
which comes from the He
brew word suka, means
booths, and symbolizes the
temporary dwellings used by
the Israelites in the desert
wanderings after their flight
from Egypt. Later when the
Hebrews settled in Palestine,
they continued their use of
these booths which they erec-
ted in their fields at harvest
time. There they lived while
bringing their crops in. For
this reason the Suka is rich
ly decorated with fruits and
vegetables. Sukos was pri-
marily a home festival and
today there is a growing ten
dency to return to the origi-
nal observance by building
temporary sukas in the
home.
Special services character.
ize the synagogual observ-
ance. The prayers stress
thanksgiving to God for the
plentiful harvest and led the
scripture-minded Pilgrims to
pattern the American thanks
giving holiday after this old
Biblical festival.
Major symbols of Sukos
are the lulav Ca palm branch
to which are attached myr-
tie and willow twigs) and
the esrog "a highly fragrant
citron, somewhat larger than
a lemon). These objects re-
mind us of our dependence
upon the natural elements,
particularly water so vital
for life, so scarce in ancient
Canaan. The palm, myrtle
and willow all grow only
near water and the earliest
celebrations of SukoS empha-
sized water libation ceremon-
les. The prayer for rain is
still recited during the holi-
day services.
SukOs is known as q pill
grimage festival. At this
time the best of the fruits
of the field were taken in a
pilgrimage to the Temple
and there offered as a sac
rifice. Today, with the Tenn
pie no longer in existence
that pilgrimage is impossi-
BILE. Instead, Reform Judaism
developed the ceremony of
conservation at which the
children, "the fruits of our
love-" beginning their religi-
our education, are specially
blessed. The young boys and
girls carry to the altar mini
ature Torahs (scrolls of the
law and floral offerings.
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1963-10-04

On the final day of Sukos,
Orthodox, Conservative and
Reform Jews emphasize re-
joicing over the Torah, the
Divine Law. To dramatic
the fact that religious study
never ends, the last chapters
of the Book of Deuteronomy
are read and Immediately
the cycle is resumed as the
first lines of Genesis are re-
cited, thus continuing the cy-
Gle of Biblical reading.

the supersonic transport (SST)

In the United States, the end
product Is this nebulous:
No one knows yet who'll build

fast It will go, how much II
will cost and whether it viii be
economically feasible.
It's true that q COMMITTEES
Of the Nations best aeronaut-
cal talent has q pretty firm
idea Of what 1t wants, but i'm
ponderables are strewn along
the next few years.
On Capitol Hill today, Civil
Aeronautics Board Chairman
Alan s. Boyd is telling q Sen
ate subcommittee that the
economic consequences can
not be realistically estimated
other than Q presentation Of
various assumed levels OF per-
formance."
The Monroney subcommittee
hearings, aimed at picking the
brains Of everyone who knows
most about supersonic trans
portation, will continue for sew
eral days.
At least one Of the questions
raised about the SST C"who's
going to buy it7) has been
answered.
In an unprecedented move,
Trans World Airlines and Pan
American stepped up to the
down-payment window this
week with checks in hand
$4,000 from TWA and SIS
million from Pan Am-to en-
phasize their willingness to buy
the airplane which isn't ex-
pected to be In service until
1870.
Even the United States Gov
eminent wouldn't buy the
Wright airplane until after 1t
flew.
The SST deposits will go into
q special United States Treas
ury fund. No interest will be
paid.
1t Is probably a first in avia-
ton history-cash deposits on
an ahplane still five years or
more away.
Pan American has what
might be called a protective"
order In for the British-F French
supersonic COncOrde and Pan
Am isn't saying whether the
transaction involved a down
payment.
Before the big beast rolls off
the line, there is bound to be
argument. At least 1t has start
ed with one.
Pan American Vice President
Russell b. Adams contends that
he told the Federal Aviation
Agency last June that Pan Am
wanted the first American
built SST.
Representatives Of Pan Am,
United, Eastern and American
were on the SST advisory
group and evinced natural
interest.
But the FAA records will
SHOW, for poSterity If need be,
that Trans World was there
first with the money.
AS for the object Of their
affections:
Three air frame manufacture
ers (BOeing, LOckheed and
North American) and three en-
CINE manufacturers Pratt g.
whitney, General Electric and
Curtiss-Wright) are working
on preliminary designs and are
to submit proposals by January.
BY May 1, the FAA hopes to
submit the winning proposal to

research.

I am particularly concerned
about this since I have a niece

while honor roll students some
times fail.
These honor students have

student who does succeed in

cient self-discipIine to apply

liens Scholarship Foundation
Of America was instrumental
In awarding 1,500 scholarships
valued at $500,000. There are
chapters now in more than
half the States and they are
growing at a rapid pace.
The foundation is only two
years old. It was founded by
DR.. Irving Fradkin, of Fall
River, Mass. DR.. Fradkin be-
heves that the citizens, by con-
tributing modestly, can solve
the scholarship needs of a great
many young college students.
He has formed Dollars for
Scholars" projects in which
each citizen is urged to give at
least one dollar to the fund.
The scholarship foundation,
q non-profit plan, Is based on
the principle that the respon-
sibility for American education
belongs to the people them
selves.
The purpose Of the founda-
ton Is to provide scholarships
for deserving students in need
of financial assistance regard
less of race. color or creed. The
foundation is dedicated to as
sisting students in the upper
half of their high school class
for whom existing scholarships
may not be available. This in
cludes "a" ''B" and &C" stu
dents who have shown quail
ties of leadership through am
