The whole day is spent in the synagogue. praying and repenting for past sins. and the day ends with the loud. long Shofar blast which marks the final sealing of the heavenly gates. the renewal of the spirit. and a final cleansing of the heart. During these most holiest of days. as the Congressman from the l1th Congressional District of Illinois. I extend my greetings and best wishes for a happy new year to my many constituents and friends of the Jewish faith. as well as to all Jews throughout the world. especially those hundreds of thousands of Jews living under Communist oppression. Hopefully the new year. 5745. will bring with it a relaxation of restrictions and an increase in the numbers of Jews who will be allowed to emigrate to Israel so that they may worship in religious freedom. "Next year in Jerusalem."*
