Friedland said about the younger
Jews in this country: "It is not
a sin. It is rather a punishment
they are meting out to their par-
ents and teachers because they
have been left in a spiritual and
intellectual desert." He declar-
ed that when he had seen what
was happening to the young peo-
ple he resolved: "As long as there
is an ounce of strength left with-
in me I shall give my time en-
tire)), to the children, in order to
help redress this evil that has be-
set our people."
He continued: "It is possible In
Detroit to raise your eons and
daughters as intelligently, schol-
arly and spiritually-minded Jews.
The synagogue must again be-
come your Beis Haknesses and Beis
Hamidrosh—the house of study
and research—not merely the
Beis Hatfiloh, the house of Pray-
er."
Attacking the abbreviated type
of Jewish education, such as is
offered the children in the Sun-
day Schools, Mr. Friedland de-
daredthat "Jewish education
that is not based on the Sefer-
on the Hebrew Book—is aposta-
sized education."

The dinner program opened
with an address of welcome by
Harry Cohen, president of the
schools. He was followed by
Aaron Silberblatt, chairman of
the committee on arrangements.
A greeting to the gathering in
Hebrew was given by Frieda Smo-

Ilenry Smolinsky of 1628 W.

quest that the society join the con-
gress was therefore rejected. The
discussion on this resolution came
after the delegates heard an ad-
dress by Max Holtzman of Detroit
who was a delegate to the Paris
Congress and who returned highly
enthused by the sessions there.
Other resolutions provided for
an extension of activities for Xid-
dish study among the youth; urged
the teaching of Hebrew in the
schools in Palestine; encouraged
wide support for the publication of
the Yiddish translation of the
Bible by Yeoash, the Jewish En-
cyclopedia, the Jewish Scientific
Institute and the Jewish Press
Archives; and provided further for
the revival of the Jewish Cultural
Society's activities in the middle
west.
A strong resolution was adopted
condemning the establishment of
"ghetto benches" in the Polish uni-
versities. The government of Po-
land was condemned for condoning
persecutions of Jews.
The conference officially opened
on Friday evening with a public
meeting held in the Roosevelt
School. The guest speakers were
David Pindei, B, I. Bialostot-sky
and Jacob Levin of New York and
spokesmen for the Yiddish cultur-
al groups in the middle west.
Isaac Finkelstein presided at the
banquet that was held on Satur-
day night at the Jewish Commu-
nity Center. A literary and artis-
tic program was presented by the
dramatic groans of Cleveland and
Chicago, and there were addresses
by the prominent guests.
Sunday's sessions were held at
the Jewish Center.
