MISS JUDITH SIDORSKY
IRVING I. KATZ
A section of the auditorium
will be reserved for music stu-
dents of the settlement schools
and men and women of the
armed forces.
just published a pamphlet en-
titled "A Selected Reference
List of Material on Synagogue
Administration a n d Finance"
which was compiled and prepared
by Irving 1. Katz, executive sec-
retary of Temple Beth El. The
pamphlet represents a pioneering
work and is the first of its kind
to be published. Mr. Katz is now
serving his second term as presi-
dent of the National Association
of Temple Secretaries.
Typical of the comments re-
ceived by Mr. Katz, on the pub-
lishing of the guide, is the fol-
lowing letter from S. D.
Schwartz, executive secretary of
the Chicago Sinai Congregation
and dean of the professional sec-
retaries of the reform congrega-
tions in the United States:
"Your compilation is an ex-
ceedingly brilliant one. You are,
in very truth, placing the work
of the Temple secretaries on a
real standard and taking away
from it the haphazard bungling
approach that has heretofore and
even now prevails to a consider-
able extent. I have read the ma-
terial with keen interest and
feel that you have made a real
contribution."

New York Police Ordered
To Sever Subversive Ties

NEW YORK (WNS). — Police
Commissioner Lewis J. Valentine
of New York this week issued
an order forbidding members of
the police to associate with fo-
menters of race or faith hatreds.
The order specifically forbids
members of the Police Depart-
ment to knowingly associate with
persons engaged in subversive
activities or to join organizations
that foster racial or religious
animosity.
The order was believed to
have been the result of the
aroused public opinion against
the exoneration by the New York
City Police Department of Pa-
trolman James L. Drew who had
been accused of associating with
persons engaged in subversive
and anti-Semitic activities.
Ben-Gurion Declines
Weizmann's Invitation
To Come to London
JERUSALEM ( WNS)
Ben-Gurion, whose resignation
from the chairmanship of the
executive of the Jewish Agency
created a political crisis in Zion-
ist circles, was reported here
this week to have received and
declined an invitation by Dr.
Chaim Weizmann to come to
London.
Dr. Chaim Weizmann, it was
reported, had sent a cable to
Ben-Gurion inviting him to head
the delegation which the agency
is sending to London to partici-
pate in important political nego-
tiations there. Mr. Ben-Gurion
is said to have declined the in-
vitation on the ground that he
could not leave Palestine at this
time. In his reply, Mr. Ben-Gurion
is reported to have expressed the
hope that past differences would
give way to unity and accord
in the critical period ahead and
that the delegation would ac-
complish its mission with success.
