ZOA Not. Ready to Abdicate; Chaitces of Frisch Soaring By WILLIAM ZUKERMAN (Jewish World News Service) NEW YORK—The rumblings of a new, or renewed, storm in American Jewish social life have been it tinctly heard, indicating that the unfortunate . controversy revolving around the UPA and ZOA was not a thing of the Past. Dr. Emanuel Neumann and Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver, have both returned to New York from a tour of the country and held a meeting of the ZOA national executive to map out a plan of action for the next few months. The most important Jecision of the conclave was to advance 'Me convocation of the annual ZOA convention by nearly two months. It will be held in New 'York City on May 28. NOT SO FAST In making the announcement, Dr. Neumann indicated in general outlines the trends, if not the actual program, of the pre-con- vention period. In brief,. it was that the ZOA was not prepared to abdicate its responsibilities be- fore its mission was fully accom- plished. "Today there are many who would like to 'take over," Dr. • Neumann said, "Many who are pushing to the front, willing to thrust the Zionist movement aside and consign it to oblivion. To them we say Not so fast, good friends.' It is well to bear in Budman Sash Co.

"Israel is the child of the Zionist movement, born of its travail. The welfare of the in- fant child will continue to be' a Zionist responsibility. The time has not yet come for demobiliza- tion and relaxation. The very opposite is true. If there were no Zionist movement in existence, this would be the time to create it." SILVER WON'T RUN This is the immediate program of the ZOA. Specifically, we learn from reliable sources near to the executive, that a concerted effort will be made to strengthen the economic institutions of the ZOA particularly the Israel Economic Corporation and private invest- ments in Israel under the auspices of the ZOA. The slogan of the campaign will be non-interference in the internal affairs of the American Zionists by any outside power, even if it comes from Tel Aviv, and a reassertion of the inde- pendence of American Zionism. Dr. Silver has evidently elim- inated himself from the candidacy for the next presidency of the ZOA and the chances of the much more conservative Daniel S. Frisch seem to be soaring.

Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the executive board of the Michigan Zionist Region meet- ing this day, March 27, 1949 in Grand Rapids, Mich., represent- ing a membership pf more than 6,000 enrolled Zionists, indorses the candidacy of Daniel Frisch for the presidency of the ZOA and calls upon the 52nd annual convention of the ZOA to elect him unanimously to that high office. The convention will be held May 28 to 30 in New York. heads Campaign Rabbis, Laymen Support Hurwitz Assembly Proposal NEW YORK — Widespread In- around the Synagogue revital- ized."

TO. 9- 641I FEPC Given GOP Support LANSING—(Special)—The Re- publican majority in the legisla- ture has agreed to push what it calls a compromise FEPC meas- ure with features of state and local administration. GOP leaders say their bill em- phasizes conciliation rather than force in settlement of disputes over discrimination in jobs. Puni- tive action would be in the hands of the courts which would deter- mine if there was an infraction of FEPC legislation. Gov. Williams' FEPC bill would set up an enforcing agency. The governor has intimated, however, that he would accept a fairly strong GOP measure if it came close to his specifications. Liberal and church organiza- tions have been urging the legis- lature to pass the governor's bill based on the successful New York state statute. Appearing in Lansing with churchmen, Rabbi Leo Fram said: "New York, during the four years' operation of its FEPC law, has never had 'to resort to its police powers for enforcement. The American employer believes in fair play. He can be persuaded to act on that belief when injus- tice is called to his attention."

Goldstein has notified the board that hi would bring suit unless those volumes are banned. The Dickens novel, he said, "inculcates bitter hatred and mai- iCe in the hearts and minds of many students and pupils, and the Merchant of Venice, he charged, instills in growing chil- dren "an unwholesome prejudice and hatred." Continued use of those books in the public school system, Judge Goldstein stated. can only suc- ceed in paying dividends of "hate. prejudice, intolerance and bigotry in the generations to come."
