Thursday, February 16, ten DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE Fags 3 STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL Al Congress Condemns AJ Committe es ' P o 1• y By PH1NEAS J. BIRON KETTLE IS BOILING . . The participation the American Jewish Committee, the Bnai Brith • and the Jewish War Veterans in the All-American Conference Against Communism has aroused deep resentment among a substantial portion of the member- ship of these organizations. The reason is that the sponsor- ship of this conference is as much anti-Semitic as it is anti-Communist. Besides being sponsored by Hearst and the American Legion, the con- ference was co-sponsored by notori- ous hate-groups, including the out- fits operating under the guidance of Merwin K. Hart, the gentleman who recommended, . in his news tter, that good Christians should Bir on rovide themselves With guns to be prepared for the- Jewish menace. • (Editor's Note: Samuel W. Leib, president of Bnai Brith District 6, emphatically denied that Bnai Brith Was officially represented at the conference.) • • • THE AMERICAN JEWISH Congress has finally awakened. Its youthful president, Rabbi Irving Miller, THE T HE is now singing the Wise tune against the American Jewish Committee's foreign policy. It was about time, For the last few years the Committee has been expanding on the international scene, establishing branch-offices in Latin-America, France and England, trying to direct the domestic affairs of foreign Jewish communities. Said Miller among other things: "I spurn it (the foreign policy of the AJC) as destructive of the self-respect of the Jewish corn- munities ..." Rabbi Miller will reinstate the American Jewish Congress as the authentic voice of Ame • ewish democracy if he will continue to speak out against reaction, including Jewish reaction. • • • THE DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE has launch- ed a new type of editorial writing. It is rather imagi- native and novel in Its form. A trio of its editorial staff gets together and dis- cusses, informally, a subject of Jewish interest. Their conversation' is recorded on the Chronicle's editorial page; readers are invited to join in the editorial chat. So, with the permission of the Chronicle's editor we take our scat at their editorial table. We would like to tell Messrs A. B. and C., who in their discussion roamed rather aimlessly all over the J OFF THE RECORD Lo.st Generation Scandal Is Brewing in Europe Zionist Speaker L OOK FOR AN OPEN scandal By NATHAN ZIPRIN of Congress, Sabbath, was called to address the gathering. to break In France over an Sabbath, who is skirting 85, estimated 300 Jewish children related how he was elected to who were orphaned by the Congress 44 years ago and of Nazis. the dream he always cherished All of them have been con- of having a "minyan" in Con- verted to Christianity by their gress.

You dish up such questions as: What are the permanent values of Jewish culture? What should be the curriculum of Jewish parochial schools? What is Jewishness basica? lly Hebrew versus Yiddi sh ! Can Judaism explain the phenomenon of anti- Semitism? Well, gentlemen of the Chronicle, even to attempt a o 1 ss iscussion on these subjects one would have to write volumes and then these ques- .tions would still remain unanswered. May we suggest that in the future, you limit . yourself to more current and concrete aspects of contemporary Jewish life. Your idea is good and the members of your edi- torial staff seem to be intellectually equipped to project stimulating discussions. But take it easy and don't prralyze us by throwing so many books at us all at once. Congratulations on your new feature, gentlemen of the Detroit Jewish Chronicle. (Editor's note: Thanks for your constructive criticism, Mr. Biron. We believe you are right and will follow your advice.)
