Bnai Brith Charges Sabotage'
(Continued from page 1)
with the SOS Drive also has
not the slightest basis in fact
for a number of reasons, includ-
ing the fact, first, that upon
thorough discussion we discov-
ered that the only field in which
our campaign conflicted with the
SOS Drive was in the food line,
and that, only to the extent that
Bnai Brith intended at that time
to send bags to individual fam-
ilies.
To meet this objection Bnai
Brith agreed to forego solicita-
tion of food in this manner and
actually did recall the bags which
had been sent out.
Furthermore, this extension
does not interfere with the SOS
Drive because the one clay Drive
on Oct. 31 of SOS will not be
hurt or hampered by the ex-
tension of the Aid to Israel
Campaign on Oct. 26.
• • •
Your entire attitude, partic-
ularly in the light of recent
action, indicates very conclusive-
ly that there was never any
good faith intention to cooperate
in this activity.
From the very beginning when
Bnai Brith first called meetings
to arrange for the organization
of this Campaign, at my per-
sonal insistence', the Committee
endeavored to get representation
from the Federation as well as
every other agency in the Jewish
Community to participate in the
planning of the Campaign, so
as to make certain that there
would be no conflict with any
other activity and that we
would have the wholehearted
cooperation of the entire Jew-
ish Community in this endeavor.

and steadfastly refused to par-

at the same time endeavoring to
place strict limitations on the
activities through the medium
of decrees and orders.
Frankly, as I told you, it was
my impression and is now my
conviction that you hoped that
this campaign would be so un-
successful that you could ignore
it and that you only called us
into session when the activity
had captured popular appeal to
a degree where citywide inter-
est was evident.
Upon discovery that plans had
been completed for a campaign,
which gave every indication of
success, you called Bnai Brith
leadership to a meeting for the
first time to discuss the sphere
of planned activity.
• • •
Notwithstanding your original
refusal to participate in the
planning of this Campaign, I,
nevertheless, grasped at the op-
portunity to demonstrate that
Bnai Brith was eager to prove
that it is a highly disciplined
organization and anxious to co-
operate with all existing agen-
cies to eliminate any possible
conflict and to demonstrate to.
Federation leadership the high
ethical plane upon which Bnai
Brith service is rendered.
To demonstrate that Bnai Brith
was not seeking the limelight
by conducting a popular activity,
we offered the Federation the
sponsorship of the Drive, with
the privilege of utilizing the
entire Bnai Brith carefully or-
ganized committee in such man-
ner as you desired.
• • •
Notwithstanding the foregoing
factual situation, without prior.
notice of such intent, you rushed
into print, locally and national-
ly, to discredit Bnai Brith and
made it appear that Bnai Brith

at the COLONIAL
was acting in violation of agree-
ment and to convey the impres-
sion that Bnai Brith was ex-
ploiting the Israel situation to
gain glory and popularity..
The true facts of the situation
make this charge unjustified and
untrue.
A retraction on your part for
the injustices done to a fine
service orgainzation, and partic-
ularly to a committee which has
worked zealously and selflessly
in the interest of a noble cause,
is altogether in place.
Sincerely yours,
(Signed) ISADORE STARR,
President, Greater Detroit
Bnai Brith Council.
