Jerome Burman, Michael Bloch, Fred Summer, Mrs. Leonard Kaplan, and Lester Weinberg, have selected a slate of officers and trustees " for both the Temple Board _ and the Temple Foundation to be presented at the Annual Meeting, April 26. President Ernest Stern urges the Congregation to attend their 135th annual . Congregational Meeting. The -business meeting, in addition to the election of trustees and officers, will be kept to a minimum. Congregants will receive a written annual report outlining the activities of their Congregation during the past year. Marvin Glassman, Chairman of the Annual Meeting, has announced that Players Theatre will make a presentation entitled "The Best of Broadway." His committee is planning to serve wine, fruit, cheese and pastries. Reservations can be made to attend the meeting by mailing a check' to the Temple for $2.50 per person, which covers the entertainment and refreshments. The Haggadah Is based on the Seder service prescribed by the Mishnah (Pes. it)), •flfhkh had .''apparently been conducted In the form of a banquet. The observance of the precepts at the Seder-the eating of the pesah (the paschal sacrifice), mazzah (unleavened bread), and maror (bitter herbs); the drinking of arba kosot (four cups of wine); and the recital of the story of the exodus from Egypt (the narrative of the Haggadah) were integrated into this - banquet celebration. . The Haggadah is essentially an account of the Egyptian bondage, a thanksgiving to God for the» redemption and, in Temple times, a thanksgiving ', ,.fprthe acquisition of tiieiand'Of-Israei-Afte^the^' destruction of the Second Temple, the latter was replaced by a prayer for die ultimate redemption. Chanting and singing the texts of the Haggadah is generally observed in all Jewish communities, each one according to its peculiar style and custom. Although the celebration of the Seder night is a family affair in which nobody is obliged to sing, it is - customary to do so according to the example set by one's parents. Pictured above are members of the Beth Jacob Congregation who gathered at the special service to "Bless the Sun" as it appeared on April 8 commem- morating the position it was in the days of creation. The next time the services will be held will be April 8, 2009. $ Fresieh Sitf ©©Ms PARIS, (JTA)—Two Jews, an anthropologist and a political philosopher, have been named by France's intellectuals as the two main "trend setters" in the fields of science, letters, art and philosophy. PARIS (JTA)—France is preparing for a hotly contested Presidential election campaign, and, as usual, one of the questions posed is how the-Jewish electorate will vote.v The question, in its broadest terms, is of vital interest not only to the candi- , dates who are wooing Jewish voters, but also to the Jewish community. The major issue this year for the Jewish community is France's current policy in the Middle East. - Some 400,000 Jews, close to _ 1:5 percent of the electorate, are expected to cast* their ballots in the two-round Presidential election scheduled for April 24 and May 10. There are four major candidates running in the first round: President Valery Giscard d'Estaing, Socialist Francois Mitterrand, Gaul- list Jacques Chirac, and Communist Georges Mar- chais. Giscard and Mitterrand are running neck to- neck in public opinion polls. In 1974, Giscard won by only ,^W$H)_yojfes and this year-, "the "margin could be even slimmer, according to most political analysts. Public opinion polls show that a majority of the Jewish voters, 53 percent," will support Mitterrand, compared to 23 percent who favor Giscard. In 1974, a majority of the Jewish electorate voted for Giscard, who ran on a platform pledging French solidarity with* Israel and a change in the pro-Arab policies that had been pursued by former Presidents Charles de Gaulle and Georges Pompidou. An over- whelming majority of France's 700,000 Jews belong to the middle class and in 1974 were opposed'to radical social and economic changes advocated by the. Socialist- . Communist coalition. Regarding the direction of the Jewish electorate in the current election, Baron Alain de Rothschild, president of the Representative Council of Jewish Organizations in France (CRIF), told a press conference several days ago that each Jewish voter will have to decide for whom to vote "according to the dictates of his own conscience." As far as CRIF's . role is concerned, he said it will adhere to its traditional role in the electoral campaign despite French Jewry's "anxiety" over - France's current policy in the Mideast. Claude Kelman, chairman of CRIF's executive council, said the Jewish community is split like the general population between the various political tendencies and parties and "each Jew will have to decide on how to vote on the basis of his personal inclinations and the candidate's stand on matters of concern to the community." Kelman warned, however, "We will closely watch both the campaign and the policies carried out by the win ner and we shall not tolerate the continuation of France's current biased policies." He refused to say, However, what the community could or would do if the next Administration's - policies are similarly biased. The traditional Jewish leadership is also split between the various candidates.
