Conservative Jewish groups in
the Bay City Jewish Community
is announced by Rabbi Leon W.
Rosenberg, under whose motiva-
tion the union was consummated.
There will be no change in
mode of worship, Rabbi Rosen-
berg pointed out.
Leaders in both the Shaarey
Zedek synagogue, Orthodox group,
and the Temple of Abraham, Con-
servative unit, have been working
on plans for the union since the
) latter part of August and incor-
poration of the association was re-
cently made with the Michigan
Securities Commission.
With the new organization it is
indicated that there is a definite
guarantee to continue strict Or-
thodox services for those desir-
ing them.
Rabbi Mendel Glancz of Shaarey
Zedek, will continue officiation at
daily and regular Sabbath serv-
ices at his synagogue, and Rabbi
Rosenberg, who recently came to
the Temple of Abraham, will con-
) duct adult eduCation classes and
Hebrew and Sunday School at the
temple, as well as late Friday eve-

Ginsberg, vice-president; Jack
Greenstein, secretary; and Reuben
Adelman, treasurer. Trustees are:

DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and the Legal Chronicle
His Book on Local Agencies
Louis A. LaMed and Myron A.
Keys have been appointed co-
chairmen of the arrangements
committee for the S. I). Weinberg
dinner, it was announced by Isi-
dore Sobeloff, executive director
of the Jewish Welfare Federation.
S. D. WEINBERG
The dinner, honoring Samuel I).
Weinberg, is in celebration of the
recently completed Yiddish book,
"Jewish Social Services of De-
troit." which was published under
the auspices of the Jewish Wel-
fare Federation. The dinner will
take place on Monday, Nov. 10,
at 7 p. m., at the Jewish Com-
munity Center.
Mr. Keys stated that "a num-
be• of persons who consider the
publication of this book an event
of community-wide importance and
significance are serving on the
arrangements committee, and are
actively interested in sponsor-
ing. it."
"We as a community welcome
the opportunity to signalize such
an occasion and to express our
appreciation to Mr. Weinberg,"
Mr. LaMed stated. "This book
provides, for the first time, in
Yiddish or English, a complete his-
torical record of the work of the
various agencies that have been
serving the community in carrying
out its social welfare responsi-
bilities. The assignment for writ-
ing the book required a person
of broad interests and background.
The earlier work of Mr. Weinberg,
editor of the Detroit edition of
the Jewish Daily Forward, made
it natural to ask him to carry
out the job of writing the book.
Mr. Weinberg reluctantly but
graciously undertook this . task.
The book gives ample evidence
that the task was entrusted to an
able author, and that the result
is a document that will serve well
students, educators and the gen-
eral public, now and in years to
come."
Reservations for the dinner may
be made by calling the office of
the Jewish Welfare Federation,

Ephraim R. Gomberg, former
Detroiter, now engaged in New
York in interpreting the pro-
gram of the National Refugee
Service, will be the speaker at
the first fall open meeting of the
Junior Service Group of the Jew-
ish Welfare Federation on Sun-
day, Oct. 26, at 2:30 p. in. , at
the Jewish Community Center.
Mr. Gomberg is a former Mich-
igan newspaper man and attor-
ney who took a prominent part
in the activities of Temple Beth
El, the Jewish Welfare Federa-
tion and other Jewish communal
activities before assuming his
present responsibility in the field
of public relations.
Jacob Keidan, president of the
Junior Service Group, in an-
nouncing the call for the meet-
ing, stated that there are 170,-
000 refugees in America today.
"The successful Americanization
of this group," said Mr. Keidan,
"is a profound concern to the
American Jewish community and
to its agency, the National Refu-
gee Service, which Mr. Gomberg
represents and whose story of
service he will describe to the
Detroit audience at our first fall
meeting. The Jews of America
have charged themselves with the
duty of seeing that these new-
comers to our shores become
good American,s, self-respecting
and self-sufficient."
Ruben Gold, chairman of the
collections committee of the Jun-
ior Service Group, will review the
work done by his committee and
will outline plans for the coming
year. The relationship of the Jun-
iors to the.. Community Fund
Campaign and to the advance
projects of the Allied Jewish
Campaign -for 1942, also will be
on the agenda of' the business
meeting.
Dancing will conclude the pro-
gram.

WASHINGTON (JPS) — Offi-
cers of the Internal Revenue De-
partment remind philanthropic
organizations throughout the coun-
try that the new Federal excise
tax removed the exemption on
tickets to events sponsored by
religious organizations. Jewish—
and all other—groups conducting
benefits must add a 10 per cent
amusement tax to the cost of
tickets sold. Synagogue dinners
and collections for specific pur-
poses remain exempt from the tax,
unless part of the admission
charge is a specific charge for en-
tertainment.
