Plan for Synagogue Council
In Detroit Endorsed by National Leader
Dr. Glazer's
Dr.
Israel Goldstein of New York, President of Synagogue
Council of America, Urges Acceptance of
Proposal as Example to Entire Country
Dr. B. Benedict Glazer's proposal that a Synagogue
Council of all religious groups be formed in Detroit this
week received wholehearted endorsement from Dr. Israel
Goldstein, president of the Synagogue Council of America.
Dr. Glazer, rabbi of Temple Beth El, suggested the
forming of a Detroit Synagogue Council in a guest editor-
ial which appeared in The Jew-
ish News on Sept. 25. The en-
dorsement of Dr. Goldstein, one
of the . most prominent Jewish
leaders - in the land, president of
the Jewish National Fund of
America and rabbi of Congrega-
tion Bnai." Jeshurun of New York,
is contained in . the following
statement to The Jewish News:
"Anyone who is interested in
well-ordered unity in American
Jewish community life and who
also desires to see the Synagogue
hold a place of influence com-
mensurate with its historic posi-
tion, should acknowledge grate-
fully Dr. Glazer's proposal for
the organization of a Synagogue
Council in Detroit.
When the Synagogue . Council
of America was founded 15 years
ago it marked a new milestone
in American Judaism. Its initia-
tion and its continuance have
witnessed the fact that in our re-
ligious life, Jewish rabbinical and
lay leaders have learned the les-
son of unity across their differ-
ences and have developed a
medium for pooling their com-
mon wisdom and experience
touching problems of concern to
all :..eligious groups alike. None
of the groups has in the slightest
degree compromised with any of
its religious principles. All of
them have been strengthened by
the Synagogue Council of Amer-
ica and have in turn, by their
union, enabled the Synagogue as
such to win great recognition in
the Jewish scene and in the gen-
eral scene.
"Such benefits as the Syna-
gogue Council of America can
bring to American Jewish life, on
a national scale, can and should
accrue to local communities as a
result of local Synagogue Coun-
cils. It is to be expected that De-
troit Jewry, particularly, which
is one of the best organized Jew-
ish communities in America,
should be one of the first to estab
lish a properly organized and ef-
fectively functioning Synagogue
Council.
"Dr. Glazer, who has taken the
initiative in making this proposal
for Detroit, has given years of
valuable service to the Syna-
gogue Council of America and
understands its possibilities as
well as its limitations. It is my
earnest hope that his proposal
may find favor and acceptance,
thus setting an example to other
communities."
