The proposed prayer amendment was released from the House Judiciary . (committee last week by a discharge petition. It is expected to come to the floor for a vote early in Novem¬ ber. "Uiis proposal has been before Uie United States Congress for a number of years. 'The fact that it has not -been ihadopted 'is d^^iist; c^kinl^ attributable to the broad recognition t^r the American people that the guarantees of the BiU of Rights, and particularly . those of the First Amend¬ ment, are not and should not be subject to amendment. "Once the principle is established ttiat ttie Bill of Rights can be amended," the American Jewish Congress resolution stated, "the way will be open to other limitations of basic liberties such as freedom of speech, press and assembly. "This amendment is en¬ tirely unnecessary for the preservation of religious freedom," the American Jewish Congress stated. The resolution noted that many rdigious organizations had pubUdy opposed the bill. including representatives of Baptist, Episcopalian, Lutheran, Methodist,^ Presbyterian, Quaker and Unitarian - Universalist groups, .aiOng with Jewish Conservative,. Orthodox and Reform congregations. The Zacks To Head UJFC Campaign Gordon B.

"The broadly - phrased guarantees of the Con¬ stitution have protected the fi-eedom of the American people for nearly 200 years.

NEW YORK (JTA) - Rabbi Irving J. Block, spiritual leader of the Brotherhood Synagogue, declared in a Rosh Hashanah sermon that Gov. Nelson Rockerfeller, State Correction Commissioner Russell Oswald and other officials of New York State "should don sack cloth and ashes and lead the citizens of New York in e;xpressing deepest feelings of remorse and repentance" over "the tragedy that has fallen upon the families of hostages and prisoners at Attica." Rabbi Block urged "a revision of the penal system of America which dehumanizes the in¬ carcerated and has resulted in the carnage in the Attica prison" on S^t. 13, in which ten hostages and 30 prisoners were killed, apparentiy all by gunfire from state troopers sent in on orders of Gov. Rockefeller to quell the four-day prison rebellion. Rabbi Block said Judaism "rejects" the "heathenish approach" of the American penal structure "that when a man .commits a crime against society, he forfeits not only his freedom but also his personality and that society may take away from him both body and soul." He added that the action of prison authorities in iden¬ tifying the dead prisoners only by number and "by rejecting their families' pleas for information, we have further stri^ied our¬ selves of a human feding and stunted our growth as persons and citizens."
