JEWISH NEW YEAR - CANBERRA - 28TH AUGUST 1962

I Send my cordial greetings to members
of the Australian Jewish Community as they celebrate
their Now Your. On this most important holiday In the
Jewish Calendar, It Is appropriate to look over the
past year and to look foriard, to renew friendships.
to cancel disputes, to eschew enmity, and to seek
atonement in its real sense.
These are admirable aims and reflect the
contributions which people of the Jewish faith have
made to Australia throughout our country's history*
In turn, Australia has offered freedom and tolerance
to all who Join her family* de look forward to a
future of peaceful developnent In which, as in the
past, the Jewish comunity . lI play a significant
role.
