May Set as Election Month;

Isaac Alkalay Guest Speaker
at Center May 18 Under
Congress' Auspices

A call has been issued by the
Jewish Community Council of
Detroit to its 195 constituent or-
ganizations to elect new delegates
to represent them during the
coming two years.
The attention of Detroit or-
ganizations is called to the fact
that May is "Council Election
Month." The Council urges or-
ganizations to elect their dele-
gates in a democratic manner. in
the same way as they elect other
officers.
The Council's call states:
"Organization elections of dele-
gates during this month are a
practical demonstration of the
democratic structure of the Jew-
ish Community Council. The
prerogative of each member or-
ganization to elect representa-
tives and thus participate in the
community's policy-making ac-
tivities, is translated into actuali-
ty through these elections."
The newly elected delegates
will convene on June • 22 to elect
new officers of the Community
Council and the executive com-
mittee which determines policy
between the Delegates' Confer-
ences. The officers and excutive
committee are also elected for a
two-year term.
In his call to constituent or-
ganizations, James I. Ellman,
president of the Community
Council, requested that all names
of delegates be forwarded to the
Community Council office as soon
as possible after the May meet-
ing of each of the groups.
In preparation for the election
of new officers and the new ex-
ecutive committee for the Com-
munity Council, a nominating
committee will be appointed at
the next meeting of the execu-
tive committee. The slate of of-
ficers and executive committee
members will be presented at
the June 22 conference of organi-
zational delegates. In accordance
with the Constitution's provisions,
and with past practice, delegates
will be free to present nomina-
tions from the floor.

Isaac Alkalay, former Chief
Rabbi of Yugoslavia, one of the
outstanding leaders of European
Jewry and an outstanding figure
in the World Jewish Congress
movement, will be the guest
speaker at a public meeting at
the Jewish Community Center,
on Tuesday evening, May 18.
This meeting is being arranged
by the American Jewish Con-
gress. Leon Kay, president of
the Detroit chapter of the Con-
gress, who will preside at this
meeting, announces - that admis-
sion will be free to the public.
At a conference of delegates of
Jewish organizations held . last
