Explaining why he doubts that the situation would be changed when the Ecumenical Council resumed its session, Father Weigel said that a majority of the bishops would be in iavor of such a declaration, but the presence of Catholic minorities in Arab lands must be taken into consideration. He also noted that there were Arab bishops in the Council whom he describod as "very sensitive indeed" to the problems of the Arab states. He said the statement might be introduced before the Council ends its labors, but Ills own fcelliigs, based on personal observation, was that the bishops would rather avoid the issue than face It. Earlier, Father Weigel had predicted that the process of removing phrases from the Catholic liturgy derogatory to the Jews would be continued. He

Pittsburgh (JTA) -— Leonard Weitzman. a veteran Pittsburgh Jewish communal worker, has been named a member of the Commission for the Preservation of Pioneer Jewish Cemeteries and Landmarks o[ the West. Tho commission was organized to acquire title, restore and provide for the perpetual maintenance of a number of long abandoned Jewish cemeteries rediscovered in the Mortimer Lode country of California and Nevada. The b u r i a l grounds attest to the major participation of Jews in the pioneering days of the Gold Rush bvit, over tlio years as the gold ran out, the area was abandoned and reverted to nature along with its temporary homes and its burial grounds. California Jewish leaders also had been acting to develop some organized effort to restore the graves and out of this grew the commission. It will function as a b r a n c h of the J u d a h L.

Jerusalem (JTA)—The more than 20,000 h o u s i n g u n i t s planned or under construction for new immigrants during the current year may prove insufficient, it was reported here at a meeting of the Jewish Agency executive. The executive was informed that while it was not true to say that a majority of recent immigrants were social w e l f a r e cases, many of the newcomers had large families and few had
'
any profession. It was also reported that while only a short time ago, Israel had a surplus of d o c t o r s, there was now a shortage. Eliahu Dobkin, head of the Youth and Hechalutz department, reported that 750 professionals came to Israel last year under auspices of the Professional and Technical Workers Aliyah program and that it was hoped that the number wo\jld reach 1,00 this year. . |

Hy Rabbi Samuel J. Fox QUESTION: Why does the Grace recited niter meals include a blessing for the host? ANSWEK: The rabbis claim that when the Bible commanded us to eat, satisfy ourselves and Bless the Almighty G-d. rekrence was also implied to make it an obligation to bless the mortal host as well as the heavenly host. This was so becau.se the mortal host is actually an "image" of the heavenly host above. Our respect and thanks for and to man is thus a symbol of our reverence and gratitude to the heavenly Greater who made man. QUESTION: What is the "Shmonch EsrohV ANSWKR: The expression "Shmonch Esreh" means •'eighteen." The main body of Jewish prayer recited on weekdays is referred to by this title because there were originally eighteen benedictions in this prayer sequence. One was added later. Still the eighteen prayers are significant because they wart: the orif.'iiml ones. QUESTION: Is there any significance to the tact that there were originally eighteen benedictions in the main body of of prayer? AN'SWKK: The number eighteen in this respect is said to liave many indications. Some contend that there were eighteen 'benedictions because the name of the Almighty is mentioned eighteen times in the twenty-ninth Psalm where the majesty o( the Almighty is proclaimed. Also eighteen times is the name of the Almighty mentioned in the "Kriath Sheina"—the proclamation of the faith which comes before the eighteen benedictions in both the morning and evening prayer services. Some consider the eighteen benedictions as representing the eighteen vertebrae of the spinal column, indicating that they are the backbone of Jewish prayer. Others say that the eighteen benedictions stand for the eighteen times the three patriarchs are mentioned together in the Scriptures—because our prayers were first instituted by the Patriarchs. Some contend that the eighteen benedictions represent the eighteen times in Scripture that the Almighty is said to have "shown himself." Since in prayer man comes face to face with the Almighty, it is as if He appears to him at that time. Eighteen, of course, is also the numerical equivalent of the Hebrew letters that go into making up the word "life" iChai) in Hebrew. Our prayers are, of course, one of the basic functions of life.

Hanover, N. H.—A film produced by a Dartmouth College alumnus has been selected as one of 14 films produced by 10 universities for the permanent archives of the University Film Producers Association. "The Russians," photographed by Howard L. Weinberg, Class of 1962, during a trip to Russia he made as a senior, was sel e c t e d by the UFPA as "outstanding and worthy of historical preservation." Weinberg, now a law student at Stanford University, was one of three Dartmouth seniors who went to Russia during their spring vacation in !%2 to study higher education in the Soviet Union. They were part of a 10member study group of students and faculty members from several colleges and universities sponsored by the Fund for InterCultural Communication. The film, which Weinberg made of his trip was his first such attempt and he was aided in finishing it by the Dartmouth F i l m Society and Dartmouth College Films. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. A. J.

U.S. Forces in Saudi Arabia With Jews Washington UTA>—The Stale Department t o d a y announced that a U.S. fighter jet squadron and supporting units arrived in Saudi Arabia this weekend for air defense training exercises to -be conducted jointly with Saudi Arabian f o r c e s and that the United States made it clear that Jews would not be eliminated from among American personnel assigned. Saudi Arabian policy, under the goading of the Arab League, has sought to screen out Americans of Jewish faith from among U. S. military men assigned to S a u d i Arabia. However, the State Department stressed that the United States would not com-, ply with an anti-Jewish ban. State Department spokesman James L. Greenfield said Saudi Arabia had not altered its visa policy against admitting Jews as individuals, but, he added, "our own policy of non-discrimination among American citizens on grounds of race, creed or color is firmly established. Our efforts have been directed to obtaining at home and abroad recognition and acceptance of this principle."
