against a man who left his wife
after she admitted she was not a
virgin on their wedding day, the
judge asserted:
'The law sees no difference if
an act is committed by either
man or woman. Society does.
"Thus it is taken for granted
that at marriage the major num
ber of men are not continent. Not
so women ' it is assumed the
large percentage of women are
pure."
Thus, Leavy said, "the court
believes the husband was justi
fied in leaving the wife and she
is not entitled to his support."
Leavy said both husband and
wife, whom he. did not name,
were from a South American
country.

Religion Hot Topic As New Israel :
Debates Old Mosaic Laws For State
By ERIC GOTTGETREU
TEL AVIV, Israel, June 28 MB The march of events has
caught up with the old Hebrew prayers and some Jews In Israel
think it Is time for a change.
There Is the traditional Passover prayer: "This year we are
slaves, next year free men."
' Jews in Israel feel themselves already free. ,
On Passover there is the fervent wish: "Next year In Jerusalem."
Almost 100,000 Jews are al
ready in Jerusalem. More are
likely to settle there. And the rest
of the Jews in Israel can go to
Jerusalem whenever they desire.
But religion is a hot topic in
Israel today. Opinions differ
sharply about the degree In which
Mosaic tradition snouia re incor
porated otticlaiiy into tne state
law, the educational system and
public life in general.
Agreement is being sought. It
probably will be brought about
by a working compromise be
tween those who believe that re
ligious observance should be writ
ten into the law of the land and
those who lean to separation of
synagogue and state.
The orthodox Jews in Israel
fear that the younger generation
may estrange itself more and
more from Jewish religious life.
As a matter of fact this already
is apparent in many of the youn
ger settlers and factory workers,
and among the Soclalrst groups.
For instance, the leftist Mapam
party vehemently opposes the
.word "God" being written Into
the preamble of the Israeli Con
stitution now being drafted.
Most Favor Tolerance
But Jews who want complete
identification of religious and na
tional legislation are a minority
in Israel. Of the 120 delegates In
the Israeli parliament, only 16
are members of the so-called re
llclous bloc. On the other hand
only the 19 Mapam delegates and
tne two communist deputies
could be listed as anti-orthodox.
Most members of parliament are'
for mutual tolerance and "every
body as he likes," a policy of free
dom of conscience and religious
opinion.
On the spot are the members
of the chief rabbinate. They are
called upon to decide such ques
tions as whether theater tickets
can be bought on the Sabbath, or
whether it is Dermlssable to drive
even military cars on the day of
rest.
Pious Jews won't travel by ve
hicle on Saturday or touch any
money. It is even forbidden to
switch on an electric light..
Rabbi Maimon, the Israel min
ister of religion, and other lead
ing religious scholars are follow
ing admonition of Richard Uzlel:
"Kll echad lephi llbbo" (every,
body should act as his heart tells
him to do).
Thus in many settlements Im
portant farm work is carried out
on the Sabbath, the women do
urgent housework, in towns a
few restaurants remain open.
Taxis operate and essential serv
ices for supply of water and elec
tricity continue.
Many Jews here live outside
these problems. They don't care
about Sabbath or dietary laws. '
But many others are asking
whether the chief rabbinate can
still postpone the official recogni
tion of a more free interpretation
of the Mosaic law given 3,500
years ago under quite different
circumstances.

Ho: safety -circle' driving cuts down accidents
'"Know your safety-circle!"
is an important lesson
taught Standard of Cali
fornia drivers ... perhaps
it can be helpful to you.
Your safety-circle is the distance you need to meet sn emergency
situation a car stopping suddenly ahead, for example. Our drivers
get t special test which tells them exactly how fast they react, but
in general, it takes the average person t full second to see 1 hazard,
think what to do and act. So, driving on a clear road, it 30 miles
an hour, you should stay at least 7 car lengths behind the car ahead;
when you drive 45 miles an hour, stay behind 13 car lengths.
More than 3,000 Standard drivers have studied this snd many
other safety principles in our Driver Training Program, besides pass
ing thorough visual' examinations. Last year, they drove 41 million
miles with an accident rate 60 lower than the national average
for trucking fleets.
