N TUESDAY EVENING, Detroit Mizrachl will celebrate its 35th
anniversary at Shaarey Zedek to commemorate its many years of
effort on behalf of this religious Zionist movement. One of its most
loyal and discerning leaders is Irving W. Schlussel, who has been Its
president for several years.
Schlussel, despite his youth, has long been a vital force in the
Orthodox community. He has a strong interest in Jewish education
especially in the adult field. He taught Jewish history for Menorah
at Wayne University and 18 years ago helped organize the adult
program for Young Israel which
is still being carried on in the
present day.
One of his dearest hopes has
been a united orthodox community
and he has, accordingly, fought
the petty differences which often
have marred community relations.
He has put forth his efforts
against the building of synagogues
merely to satisfy the aspirations
of a few members. "A synagogue
on every corner," he points out,
"Is not only an economic waste
to the community but a blot on
the prestige of traditional Jewry."
In their place, he has advocated
the building of a single religious
center on Dexter boulevard with
facilities to attract young religious
persons which would bring dignity
and prestige to the community as
a whole. Young Israel is today
making plans for such a center.
