WORLD WIDE PASSOVER
Passover has always meant
Freedom. This year celebra-
tions. were held, and will be
concluded ’round the world.
Servicemen stationed in the
States and those overseas have
had full opportunity to take
advantage of worshipping dur-
ing the Holiday. In remote
places supplies were dropped
by Parachute. The Jewish Wel-
fare Board’s “Operation Pass-
over” made certain that all
GI’s — whether in the cold re-
moteness of the Arctic or the
scorched desert — would be
supplied with the religious nec-
essities to properly worship
Passover.
On a floating iceberg in the
North Pole, traditional cere-
monies were held. And a blind
patient at the United States
Leprosarium at Carville, Louis-
iana, aided by a visiting Rabbi,
recited the Passover Haggadah,
Ships at sea were not omit-
ted. Services were held in the
Caribbean and in broader At-
lantic waters many groups of
Jewish sailors gathered to ush-
er in the Holy Days . . . Free-
dom Days . . . Days that
marked the exodus.
In Israel more than 1500
tourists helped the native Is-
raelis celebrate Passover. And
a rare Haggadah, dating to
1460, was given to the Bezalel
Museum in Israel by Mrs. Ethel
Yahuda in memory of her late
husband, former Yale Profes-
sor of Oriental Languages, A.
S. Yahuda,
Most of all we like one of the
items sent to us by the Union of
American Hebrew Congrega-
tions. It says, “You haven’t
fully celebrated Passover until
you have realized that Judaism
summons you to sing as well
as sigh, feast as well as fast,
play as well as pray.”
To all of you a Happy Pass-
over.
May this Freedom Season
usher in a new era of peace
for all men.
DEBATE CANCELLED
FREE MEN CELEBRATE THE FESTIVAL OF FREEDOM
IN HOSPITALS, ON BOARD SHIP, in strange and familiar places overseas, and at
installations here in the U. S., Jewish GIs and sick and wounded veterans celebrate
Passover. These scenes, which were re-enactedthroughout the world this year, were
made possible by the American Jewish community and its agency for serving the rec-
reational, religious, morale and welfare needs of Jewish GIs and hospitalized veterans,
the National Jewish Welfare Board (JWB). The manpower for “Operation Global
Seder” was supplied by thousands of volunteers on JWB Armed Services Committees,
Serve-A volunteers, Jewish chaplains and JWB Armed Services workers. Seders were
arranged for in Korea, Germany, Panama, Austria, the Philippines, Japan, France, Cuba,
Alaska, Italy, the islands of the Pacific and the Caribbean, isolated outposts in the
Arctic from Greenland and Iceland to the N orth Pole, scattered installations in Morocco,
India, Thailand and Indo-China, and at hundreds of posts and hospitals in the U. S.

Security Council
Meeting Delayed
N'E:W YORK (WNS) — The
meeting of the United Nations Se-
curity Council on the Israel-Arab
issue, which was scheduled to be
held last Thursday, was suddenly
cancelled a day before by Soviet
delegate Andrei Vishinsky, who is
president of the Council for this
month.
It is believed that the cancella-
tion of Thursday’s meeting was
requested by the Arab spokesman
Dr. Charles Malik, of Lebanon,
who insists that the Security Coun-
cil must first censure Israel for
an attack made on March 28 on
the Jordanian village of Nahalin.
j The Lebanese delegate had prev-
iously stated that only after such
a resolution is adopted would tl. 1
Arabs agree to a general debate
on the frontier question.
Other developments in the
Israel-Arab tension during the
week preceding Passover were:
A spokesman for the U. S. State
Department called on both Israel
and the Arabs to renounce the use
of force if they wanted peace in
their area.
For the third time the Israeli
Government denied on Wednesday
that Israelis had made a night
raid April 6 on Husan, a village
near Bethlehem, declaring that
this charge was a “fabrication.”
In New York Dr. Dov Joseph,
Israel’s Minister of Development,
stated that peace in the Middle
East will have little meaning, un-
less the Arab nations end their
economic boycott against Israel
and Egypt ends its blockade of
Israel-bound shipping that must
go through the Suez Canal.
