vard.
I think Bnai Brith should have
joined the American Jewish As-
sembly. I think all Jewish or-
ganiza-
tions should
join.
As it is, we
have a hundred
and one dif-
ferent organi-
zations, many
of them floun-
dering around,
and none of
them, including
Bnai Brith,
carrying enough weight.
American Jewry should have
one big, powerful organization
as its spokesman.

I do not believe there shOuld
be an American Jewish Assem-
bly. It would be dominated by
reform and
conse rvative
Jews and
would not be
a true repre-
sentative of all
Jews.
However, if
American Jew-
ry decides in
favor of the
Assembly, I
think Bnai
Brith should join. For one thing,
it would make the organization
stronger.
Secondly, I think Bnai Brith
should show more interest po-
litically.

Bnai Brith is doing a wonder-
ful job, but I think it should
have joined the American Jew-
ish Assembly.,
Today, more
than ever be-
fore, American
Jewry must
work together
to make the
Jewish State
successful. One
large organiza-
tion such as
t h e Assembly
would be more
influential as our spokesman than
the many different organizations
acting independently. -
It's too bad that American
Jewry cannot make up its mind
on what it really wants.

Residents to Stay,
Survey Discloses

Questionnaires circulated in
the Hamilton, Twelfth and Lin-
wood areas above the boule-
vard confirm that the over-
whelming majority of residents
intend to remain in the neigh-
borhood, the Midwest Neighbor-
hood Council revealed.
The results of the survey con-
tradict rumors circulated in the
area last summer of a vast ra-
cial change in the section.
OLD TIMERS REMAIN
The study disclosed that al-
though many new tenants have
moved into the area in recent
years, a large percentage of old
residents remains.
Most of the residents had
suggestions for improving the
area. The greatest number men-
tioned garbage collection as the
chief problem, but the most
pressing problem, they said, is
that of traffic conditions on
Hamilton, Twelfth and Four-
teenth especially during rush
hours. Appeals for traffic lights
at certain intersections have
been rejected, it was revealed.
OFFICERS ELECTED
At a meeting Feb. 10 at th ,.
Thirkell school, temporary of-
ficers of the Midwest Council
were elected and a tentative or-
ganization set up.
Officers are Mrs. Helen Kulka,
president; Jack llalperin, treas-
urer; and John Bryne, secre-
tary.
