Preliminary activities- at the nominating conventisq., included reports by heads of committees, as follows; Joseph Haggai, chairman of the elections committee, outlined the activities of the various commit- tees and called upon all those who are distributing registration certi- ficates to dispose of them at once , in order that many thousands of Detroit Jews may be eligible to vote on June 25, 25 and 27. William Hordes reported for the registration and credentials committee. Henry Fenster gave the report of the nominating committee which presented a list of candi- dates.

Suggestions for additional voting centers were made by delegates and will be considered by the elections committee. A complete list of polling places will be made public between now and the date of the elections. Dr. Wise's Address In his stirring address, Dr. Wise severely condemned the statement made in New York on Saturday by Dr. Samuel II. Goldenson in Temple Emanti-E1 of New York. Dr. Goldenson criticized the popu- lar elections as being Hitler-like, and Dr. Wise declared that any one who refers to efforts on the part of Jews to organize demo- cratically as being Hitler-like writes himself out of court in dealing with Jews. Dr. Wise's statement in reply to Dr. Goldenson appears in an- other story on the first page of this issue. Affirming the reports that he will lay down his office as presi- dent of the Zionist Organization, at the convention to be held in Detroit in July, Dr. Wise stated that anyone who succeeds him will undoubtedly be a person who will help in the advancement of Pal- estine's reconstruction. Dr. Wise outlined the history of the Jewish Congress movement and said that the inspiration for it came from the man who may be spoken of in the same breath with Theodor Herzl—Mr. Justice Louis D. Brandeis. He declared that Justice Brandeis is "the greatest Jew of his time and one of the noblest Jews in all history." An- swering the attacks upon the Con- gress, Dr. Wise said that the op- ponents are fundamentally mo- tivated by dislike for the demo- cratic way in Jewish life. lie charged enemies of the congress with being "utterly un-American in their opposition." In connection with the Ameri- can Jewish Congress sessions in September, Dr. Wise announced, leaders from Jewish communities in 25 countries throughout the world will attend sessions of the administrative committee of the World Jewish Congress, on Sept. 3, 4 and 5. Graduation at Bnai David This Sunday Jewish rights and to register their views on the referendum question asking whether American Jewry favors the creation of one all in- clusive agency on the democratic, representative basis in defense of the Jewish status. The officers of the American Jewish Congress report a steady stream of interest in the election and referendum and the demand for registration certificates from thousands of individuals unaffili. ated with local or national organ- izations. All the national groups within the congress are actively engaged in seeking the enrollment of their membership wherever they may live. Last Sunday, the Mizrachi Organization of America held a conference of its leaders at hotel Pennsylvania in New York where a plan of action to bring about the full membership of this or- ganization was adopted. A week earlier, a special convention - of the Labor Zionist grolips was held at the Manhattan 6dera Ilouse in New York City for the some pur- pose. The Independent Order Order of Brith Abraham whose convention meets in Atlantic City June 19 and 20. will devote a special session to discussion of the democratic elections of the Amer- to which the ican Jewish organization is committeed. c ongresa NEW YORK. — The American Jewish Congress made public a reply to the statement issued by B. C. Vladeck, David Dubineky and J. Baskin, officers of the Jew- ish Labor Committee, attacking the referendum and the national democratic elections of the Amer- ican Jewish Congress. and refus- ing to participate therein. The American Jewish Congress, in its statement, calls attention to the fact that negotiations had been going forward for some time to secure co-operation for a united defense against anti-Semitism on the part of all central bodies, and that the issue on which these neg- otiations with the Jewish Labor Committee among others have broken has been on the question of democratic representation. It asks the Jewish Labor Committee to explain this. The American Jewish Congress, in its statement, asks why the Jewish Labor Com- mittee, which has been willing to co-operate with the American Jewish Congress and other organ- izations on occasion, considers co- operation on an all-inclusive basis harmful. It asserts that the views of the leaders of the Jewish Labor Com- mittee are not shared by the mem- bership of the organizations com- prising the Jewish Labor Commit- tee. It charges the leadership of the Jewish Labor Committee with negating the integrity and soli- darity of the Jewish people. Tellers' Committee The counting of the ballots was in charge of a tellers' committee headed by the following: Ben F. Goldman, Mrs. J. Nei- man, Mrs. M. H.

WISE ANSWERS CONGRESS CRITIC (CONc`tITDEO FROM 'FACIE ONE) a direct acceptance of the racial philosophy of the Hitler regime, that racial difference means and most mean racial inferiority, the thing most dreaded by the Jewish members of Temple Smarm-El, New York, or the Jewish members of St. Thomas church. Racial identity or integrity within the totality of American life implies neither radical dif- ference in any American sense nor racial inferiority in any sense. This is a wanton assault upon the loyalty and integrity of every ra- cial and religious group in Ameri- can life. I am as truly an Ameri- can, though a Jew of Central Eu- ropean birth, as is Governor Mur- phy of Irish Catholic descent or Senator Vandenberg of Dutch Protestant background. I am not less but more of an American, because as Siresident of the American Jewish Congress, I seek to organize my American fellow Jews upon a platform of unyielding resistance to every anti-American purpose. Morally I would thrice arm my fellow- Jews that they may stand rem- lute and indeflectable against ev- ery threat and invasion of anti- democratic purposes. As for the Congress being used to play the game of politics or to be exploited in political interests , which is the second of Dr. Gol- denson's fears, this is but another expression of Jewish self-contempt and self-belittlement, too com- mon among the earlier groups of American-Jewish immigrants of whom Dr. Goldenson chooses to be a representative. If he and his kind respected his fellow-Jews, that is the lowlier and unprivi- leged masses, a little more he could not utter such an aspersion, which is belied by 20 years of the life of the A nassicts.. -Jewlsh press. No Jew in America has fought more zealousy for 40 years than I against any and every manifestation of a so-called Jew- ish vote whether in the interest of a Tammany Hall Judge or even of a Presidential candidacy. As for the Jew who is "merely a Jew," does the Jew descend man. in memory of their daugh- ter, Pearl; J.
