We mourn the loss of these souls, with sorrow and grief we mention them.
And we express words without giving ourselves full account of their profound significance. With a quiet heart we say that they are walking on their way, in the path of heroism. Millions have fallen and many still fall. Urim are shaded by fire, they hope and believe that the sun will rise again, for there will be a rebirth for them and for us.
The man we had as a guide on our way, Arthur Ruppin, died this year. The man of science and action, the nobleman of spirit, the builder and teacher of all our settlements. I think we should mention his name with a feeling of gratitude and awe. His memory will be preserved in our hearts.
A year ago I was about to report in Hebrew, but I must restrain myself, because I fear to use the language that I do not want, especially in a matter of wide and varied scope.
I opened in Hebrew and I beg your pardon and trust your consent if I use the German language when I get to the point ... "
