THE CONSIDERATION
Church still demanded: "Let . . . our women be trained to have courage . . . and to appreciate their high vocation . . . ; then I guarantee that they will not cry out for chloroform under the panga of labour but cling with redoubled love and sacrifice to the beings whom they bring forth in pain."
In rabbinic writings the legality of casing the sufferings of childbirth is never even raised. "The prohibition of analgesics," it has been remarked, "would contradict Jewish ideology.'1 On the contrary, as we have seen, the sympathy of Jewish law for the mother in travail was so strong that her dread of further pains in confinement was regarded as a valid ground for recourse to contraceptive sterilization, despite the vigorous opposition generally offered by Judaism � as the only religion of antiquity , to proscribe castration � to any interference with the reproductive faculties.
Similarly, Jewish thought cannot subscribe to the view of some Christian theologians that it is wrong -to�employ- narcotic druga-

anguish is entirely absent. There is no trace in rabbinic law of the Christian concept- in which "Pathos became Ethos; suffering was a sign of grace, not to be evaded but sought."
The issues in which these conflicting views are most realistic-
_____in
suffered^ at the creation and at the conclusion of life. In this connection, one remembers the fierce fight of churchmen in the hut century against the palliation of the woman's birth-pangs. The opposition to the use of analgesics during parturition did not commence only with the application of chloroform by Sir James Young Simpson a little over a century ago. Nor did the agitation cease with the acceptance of the new drug by Queen Victoria at the birth of Prince Leopold in 1868. The New York Report of the Joint Commission on Christian Healing of 1926 informs us that "before the discovery of anesthesia, a woman in France waa detected in an attempt to ease the pain of childbirth with the help of another woman. This was construed as a blasphemous attempt to thwart the curse laid upon Eve, and both women were burnt to death." Towards the end of the last century a moralist of the
before   death  �  whether   natural or by execution � because "they deprive a man of the capacity  to act meritoriously  at a time when the competency is most necessary." Severe pain, in the Jewish view, can paralyze the mind no less than morphia, even if its effects may be less visible.  The  exercise of moral judgment is no doubt an ineluctable duty of man; but this duty does not extend to the creation of physical conditions for such Exercise at the cost oi intolerable" torment. The meticulous Jewish regard for shortening and mitigating the agony of capital convicts shows, moreover, that the infliction of pain is not an essential  part of their  punishment and does not constitute a condition for the atonement of their crime.
Finally, we may briefly consider a rabbinic argument on human pain which sheds an interesting light on an important aspect of our subject. While the masters of Jewish law generally agreed that the infliction of cruelty on animals constitutes a biblical offense, they were in dispute on whether this law could technically be invoked against causing pain to humans, too. Some rabbis could see no reason for discriminating between man and beast in this respect. But others held the opposite view. They reason that "the Tor ah is concerned only about pain caused to brutes, because
they lack knowledge and the intelligence to endure suffering, whereas man can choose to ease his mind and to accept with love whatever befalls him." This contrasts toto caelo with the Christian argument that animals cannot be entitled to strict rights since they are not possessed of reason and personality.
There is also a talmudic parallel for the opinion that, in some respects, greater legal protection is extended to the animal than to man. The law, "Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth on the corn, carries the biblical penalty of flagellation only in regard to animals, but not for the imposition of similar restraints on human workers. This discrimination, too, it has been suggested, is due to the fact that "a human worker is different, because he is gifted with intelligence. Similarly, a slave enjoys more legal security against exploitation or degradation than a hireling or '?ee worker. In __other words, therefore, Jewish law relates its protective legislation to the need for it: the more defenceless a -creature, the grcater^ts claim-to-sympathy and considerate treatment.

it is constitutionally permissable to make interstate travel a crime solely because of the intent that prompted it and in the absence of other illegal conduct," Mr. Bola told the Committee.
The A J Congress counsel also supported a bill introduced in the Senate by Lyndon Johnson, Democrat of Texas, containing a provision not included in any of the House bills. The Johnson bill would permit the FBI to assist local officials in the investigation of any bombing, without regard to interstate transportation or the nature of the building affected, upon the request of the governor of the state or the mayor or other chief official of the place where the bombing occurred. "We believe such a provision would be useful," Mr. Bolz said.

"I personally know a rabbi in Leningrad. When,! worked there, he approached meiand asked that the necessary ingredients for matzos (unleavened bread) be put on sale there. We did sell these ingredients and the Jews were free to celebrate the holiday (Passover) in tl\e traditional way.

It should suffice to note that the wife of .(Marshal K^mat Y.) Voroshilov (titular chief of state), who unfortunately died recently), waa Jewish. The wife of the member of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet (Andrei A.) Andreyev is also Jewish.
"God give it that the Jews in any other country should enjoy the same life as they do in the Soviet Union. At the least they live a much better life in the Soviet Union than they do in Israel.
"By the way, there were Jews who at their own request left the Soviet Union for Israel. Then many of them wrote letters to the Soviet Union�saying they�were-
Mr. Bolz concluded: "Violence ~~ against persons and property is but one form in which hate-ridden individuals express their irrational drive to maintain racial supremacy and their scorn of any legal restraint. The recent wave of violence in the South, culminating two weeks ago in a shocking lynching in Mississippi, foreshadows the anarchy that could result from long continued defiance by whole communities of the commands of our supreme law. When violence stems from passionate dedication to maintenance of unconstitutional inequality, it must be combatted by eliminating
punishing
the violence. While supporting measures to achieve the former, we also favor steps to attain the latter. We therefore support legislation empowering the Federal government to act effectively when bombings occur such as those that have shocked the nation in recent years."

The objective of geriatric medicine is not primarily to lengthen life. For life has depth and breadth as well as length. This ia possible by working for construction of greater health in later maturity, the prevention and retardation of the progressive disabling disorders of aenes-cence, and continued cultivation of the mind through better adult education.�����-----�

The Soviet authorities, moreover, arrested several persons who were involved in an attack last September on a synagogue in Plunge, Lithuania, on the eve ox the Jewish New Year. The police intervened two months later when a group of peasants attacked Jews and broke the leg of one of them.
Anti-Jewish disorders have also been reported by reliable sources from the Soviet Union. On the other hand, the centennial of Sho-lom Aleichem, the Yiddish writer, was celebrated in Moscow last March with public readings and the publication of a Yiddish edition of his selected works.

The government has begun to back down. Critics had been particularly bitter about the fact that, under the State Security Law, the publisher and not the censor, who reads all news copy in Israel, and is supposed to weed out censorable material, would be responsible for illegal material on immigration which the censor inadvertently passed. Bowing before pressure, the government reversed that provision and made the censor responsible for his own mistake*.
