Synagogue Council of America,
with a synagogue council in every
community.
The report of the social justice
committee was deferred. The docu-
ment dealt exclusively with major
issues of the day and would, if
adopted, commit Jewish religious
leaders to an uncompromising
stand on some controversial ques-
tions.
The report calls for "public
ownership of instruments of bank-
ing and credit, transportation and
communications systems and
sources of power—water, coal, oil,
gas and electricity."
Rabbi Leon S. Lang of Phila-
delphia, in his presidential ad-
dress, declared that "religion can
never bring itself to sanction
war as a deliberate policy for in-
stituting palliatives in our social
structure. This is a hopeless mir-
age. The answer that the Ameri-
can people must give resides not
in hysteria for peace or war, but
in a quickening of the spiritual
foundations upon which democratic
institutions can alone survive in
our present crisis."
More Adult Jewish Education
Is Urged
NEW YORK (Religious News
Service) — The existence of a
"vital need" for the expansion
of adult Jewish education pro-
grams, particularly in their re-
lation to the promotion of better
understanding among all groups,
was stressed here by Prof. Harry
A. Oversteet of the College of
the City of New York at a meet-
ing of Jewish educators held un-
der the auspices of the National
Academy for Jewish Studies.
Prof. Overstreet told the gath-
ering, which brought together for
the first time representatives of
some 50 affiliated institutes in
various sections of the country,
that unless the adult mind is
directed along proper channels
it cannot hope to instill bene-
ficial concepts in the minds of
the youth of America.
Dr. Louis Finkelstein, presi-
dent of the National Academy,
presided. Speakers included Rabbi
Joel S. Geffen, Rabbi Leon S.
Lang, Prof. Mordecai M. Kap-
lan, Dr. Israel M. Goldman and
Dr. Alexander M. Dushkin.

NEW YORK (Religious News
Service) — Recalling the Ku
Klux Klan wave which swept the
nation in the years following the
World War, Dr. Everett R. Clin-
chy, president of the National
Conference of Christians and
Jews, warned that "American
leaders must build a dyke against
a possible new wave of fear, pre-
judice and intolerance such as
that which has followed all mod-
ern wars."
Reviewing the work of his or-
ganization in building better re-
lationships among Protestants,
Catholics and Jews in America
during the last year in his an-
nual report to the Trustees of
the National Conference, Dr. Clin-
chv classed as an "illusion" the
belief that "the tide of intoler-
ance" will ebb as a result of
"the united effort forced upon
us by the war."
That cooperation among Pro-
testants, Catholics and Jews in
common problems has increased
during the last year was empha-
sized at length in the report.
