RABBI ISRAEL E. TURNER

at an informal Chanukah eve-
ning to be held Wednesday, Dec.

In. An interesting program of

tablishing of an Orthodox Jewish

Community Council to Hear
Report on American Jewish Conference

James I. Ellmann, president of
the Jewish Communty Council,
announced this week that De-
troit's delegates to the American
Jewish Conference will report on
the deliberations and decisions
reached at the Pittsburgh session
at the meeting of Community
Council delegates on Monday eve-
ning, Dec. 11, at the Jewish Com-
munity Center auditorium.
This meeting will be the third
in this year's series of scheduled
delegates' conferences. The pur-
pose of these meetings is to
bring to the representatives of
the 208 organizations affiliated
with the Community Council an
up-to-the-minute report of the
activities of the Council, and to
enable the delegates to indicate
their views on various matters of
community policy. Decisions
adopted at these Delegates' Con-
ferences become the established

policies of the organized Jewish
community and are put into ef-
fect by the executive committee
and the various functional com-
mittees of the Council. This pro-
vides the Jewish community of
Detroit with a platform for the
expression of community inter-
ests and wishes, and with a
means of determining in demo-
cratic fashion the will of the
community.
The reports on the American
Jewish Conference to be made
by some of the Detroit dele-
gates will occupy the major at-
tention of the meeting. In addi-
tion, a report will be submitted
on the work of the Yiddish Cul-
ture Committee and further re-
ports on latest development; in
the national and local fight
against anti-Semitism.
Because of the special interest
of the report on the Ameri can
Jewish Conference, the general
community luis been invited to
this Community Council meeting.
