PROGRAM OF RELIGIOUS EMPHASIS WEEK AT TEMPLE BETH JACOB IS ANNOUNCED
The "Three M's of Judaism" is the theme for this year's Religious EmphasLs' Week program to be held during the days between Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur at the Beth Jacob Synagogue.
Dr. Maynard Goldmeier, chairman of the year's program, annoimced the following schedule of the sessions. Sessions will begin on Sunday, Sept. 22, at 8:30 a.m. with the Talis and Tiphilin Prayer  Breakfast   Club.  The   sec¬
ond session will be on Sunday at 8:30 p.m. The topic "Mikveh," the source of morality in the Jewish home.
Monday, Sept. 23, 6:45 a.m.. Prayer Breakfast Session; 8:30 p.m.. Teen-age  Session.
Tuesday, Sept. 24, 8:30 p.m., Topic -'"Mechitzah", the sanctity of fhe synagogue.
Wednesday. Sept. 25. 12:30 p.m., Sisterhood, Topic - "Nervous Dis- orders and Religious Faith", Luncheon; 6:30 p.m., Topic - "Mu¬ ktzeh", the sanctity of the Sabbath.
"THE THREE M'S are uniquely identified with the philosophy of Orthodox Judaism, and each plays a vital role in the life of the ;{radi- tioiial Jew,"  said  Rabbi  Stavsky.
The concept of Mikveh (specially designed ritual pool of water), an injunction found in the Torah, is a law which bespeaks the morality in Jewish family life. Many non- Jewish ideas of immersion and baptism found their roots in the Jewish law of Mikveh.
"MECHITZAH" is the physical separation ¦ between men and women in the synagogue. As in the original temple in Jerusalem, men and women sat separately, lending much to the religious decorum and sanctity in  the   House  of Prayer.
"Muktjsan" means "set aside", or "excluded from our mind." That which was not on our mind to use on the Sabbath. The law of Mukt- zan is that we are not to handle on the Sabbath any objects which:
for one reason or another, were not intended for Sabbath use. The concept of Muktzan is the under¬ lying philosophy of "separation." Separating between the- Hojy and profane. It is this separation, both in laws pertaining to marital life, in the synagogue, and in the Sab¬ bath home, which will be analyzed and explained during Religious Emphasis Week.
AN EXCELLENT group of speak¬ ers has been engaged to discuss these thought-provoking subjects. After each lecture there will be a short questipn and answer period and general discussion. As in past years, those who want to enter in¬ to personal discussions with a speaker may do so after the main program has ended.
Members of the Beth Sacob Sis¬ terhood wiJI serve refreshments after each session. Although there will be no solicitations of funds, friends and membei'S of the syn¬ agogue are requested to contribute to the Gertrude Furrfian Levin Memorial Fund, which helps to de¬ fray the costs of these excellent programs.

THE ISRAEL Cabinet met ia emergency session and decided to make the appeal to the Security Council. Mrs. Golda Meir, Israel's Foreign Minister, conferred wilh all diplomats of countries on the Security Council, and with Gen. Odd Bull, Chief of Staff of the UN Truce Supervision Organization. Ambassador Michael Comay inter¬ rupted an Israel vacation to rush back to the United Nations for the Security Council session.
The Truce Supervisory Organiza¬ tion proposed that the UN inspect the entire frontier to a depth of six-and a-half miles on both sides. The proposal was made to Israel by Gen. Bull. The goal of the in¬ spection would be to determine whether there had been any mili¬ tary concentrations in violation of I hi' armistice agreement.
Syria had charged such concen¬ trations by I:-uc'. a charge de- .scribed by Israel as propagmda. Israel accepted Gen. Bull's pro- |)0.-;al on condition that Syria would also accept it. The Syrian reply had not been received at the time Israel   accepted.

B'nai Israel Jews End Demonstration; Will Meet Eshkol
JERUSALEM — Twenty families of B'nai Israel Jews from India ended a month-long demonstration outside the offices of the Jewish Agency over a variety of griev¬ ances, when they were promised a meeting with Premier Levi Eshkol.
The principal complaint involved a long-running dispute with the Is¬ raeli rabbinate, which had ques¬ tioned the validity of the Jewish¬ ness of the B'nai Israelites. The dispute had led to charges of re¬ fusal By Israeli marriage registrars to wed B'nai Israel Jews with Jews of other communities in Israel.
AFTER WIDESPREAD protests, the Israel Rabbinate set up regu¬ lations for such marriages requir¬ ing investigation of the Jewish backgrounds of B'nai Israel mar¬ riage applicants.
The 20 families set up tents out¬ side the Jewish Agency offices and conducted a demonstration by squatting in the tents. During the month, their cause was widely dis¬ cussed by the local .press and re¬ cently received formal support from the League Against Religious Coercion, which was organized to fight the exclusive control over matters of personal status main¬ tained over Israeli Jews by the Israeli  rabbinate.
ANNOUNCING the end ot the demonstration, the families said that the Jewish Ageney had pro¬ mised to reinstate them in jobs and that individual attention would be given to the special integration problems of each family.
REDEMPTION OF ISRAEL BONDS SPURS HIGH HOLIDAY EFFORTS FOR MORE AID
The current redemption of the first Israel Bonds, confirm¬ ing the faith in Israel of those-who purchased Bonds 12 years ago, is expected to stimulate a heightened response*'to the High Holiday .synagogue effort to advance the development of Israel, it was announced by Alvin E. Schotten.stein, general chairmJin jf the Columbus Committee for State of Israel Bonds.
Schottenstein emphasized that continued economic progress was essential to the full realization
of Israel's aim to build a demo¬ cracy on the foundations of Jewish spiritual and cultural  revival.
THE JEWISH High Holidays in¬ clude Rosh Hashonah, which will be observed Thursday and Friday, Sept. 19 and 20, ushering in the Hebrew Year 5724, and Yom Kip¬ pur.  on Saturday,  Sept.  28.
.Schottenstein noted that synago Rues in many communities through¬ out tilt? United States and Canada are planning special participation jn the Israel Bond effort during the liigh Holidays. The synagogues in Columbus which will participate in lhe special High Holiday Israel Bond effort are Agudas Achim and Beth Jacob.
"SINCE THE inception of the Israel Bond campaign 12 years ago," said Schottenstein, "the flow of vital investment dollars for de- veyopment has resulted in growth on all economic fronts that has en¬ abled Israel to absorb 1,250,000 Jewish immigrants and to rebuild the ancient Jewish homeland as a modern   and  creative  democracy.
"The redemption of Israel Bonds, which started this year, has test¬ ified to the zeal and dedication of the pioneers and builders of Israel,
whose achievements are reflected In the impressive strides of its in¬ dustrial and agricultural develop¬ ments.
"THE LAND is being redeemed, just as more than a million and a quarter homeless irtimigrants have been redeemed and given the opportunity to create new lives for themselves and their families. What has been accomplished is not only cause for rejoicing, but should inspire new effort to reclaim and settle the vast ¦"Negev desert in tlie sc and to provide jobs
and hou.--'' for the irnmigrants who continue to come into the country   in   substantial  numbers."
