After waiting a year and a half The resolution, unanimously adopted, was presented by cific, his father, Solomon Naba- !Lawrence Crohn after Rabbi Morris Adler made a plea that the stand proposed should be taken by Shaarey Zedek. Abra- ham Cooper, president of the Zionist Organization of Detroit, seconded the resolution. 600 Are Zionists Abraham Srere led a group of members of the congregation who urged that the members go fur- . ther and that membership in a Zionist organization should be a requisite for membership in Shaarey Zedek. Such action was deferred for future consideration when it was pointed out that close to 600 of Shaarey Zedek's 812 members already are affili- ated Zionists and that the rest are rapidly joining Zionist ranks. The action taken by Congre- gation Shaarey Zedek is a con- tinuation of a new procedure fol- lowed by many Conservative and Orthodox congregations to enroll their memberships en masse in the Zionist Organization. The Resolution The resolution adopted by Con- gregation Shaarey Zedek follows: Congregation Shaarey Zedek affirms its adherence to the principles of Conservative Ju- daism. For over three-quarters of a century our synagogue has maintained its allegiance to a Judaism which emphasizes re- ligious beliefs and practices that stem from a living tradi- tion. A great love of the Jew- ish Past has not made for stagnation, but on the contrary, Conservative Jews are in the forefront of the progressive movements in Jewish life. Of these, Zionism is foremost. From the earliest days much of the leadership of this great cause has come from this branch of the Jewish Syna- gogue. New Songs of Hope The Jewish religion is rooted in the life of the Jewish people. Such a faith cannot forever live on the momentum of the past. Small wonder, therefore, that from Palestine have come new and vigorous ideas to sus- tain that concept of the Jewish People which Solomon Schech- ter has termed a "Catholic Israel." The centuries - old longing for Zion now could be translated into active support for the upbuilding of modern Palestine. Into the lives of our ancient a n d long-suffering people came new songs of Hope and of Rebirth. Congregation Shaarey Zedek has always been closely identi- fied with the work for Pales- tine. The references to Zion in our prayer book have always toff, was notified on April 28. Nabatoff was in the Parachute Battalion and originally trained at Fort Benning, Ga. He was graduated from Northern High and studied at Wayne University. Besides his father, he is sus- vived by five sisters, Mrs. Nina Frankman, a WAAC stationed at Daytona, Fla.; Mrs. I. Kruger of 1600 Seward, with whom Mr. Na- batoff makes his home; Mrs. Sally Yellen, Mrs. Elaine Sachs and Mrs. Muriel Rock, all of New York. Feinstone, Trade Unionist, Is Dead MORRIS H. BLUMBERG had real meaning for us. From the pulpit the principles of Modern Zionism have been preached zealously and ardent- ly for many years. A large number of the leaders of the local Zionist district always came from this congregation. Sense of Duty Be it, therefore, resolved, that, moved by a sense of duty and solemn responsibility in this tragic hour in the life of our peopl e, Congregation Shaarey Zedek hereby ex- presses its wholehearted sup- port of the Zionist movement, which aims for the establish- ment of a Jewish common- wealth in Palestine. Be it further resolved, at this annual meeting, that we call upon the members of this Congregation to join the Zion- ist ranks by affiliating with the Zionist Organization of Amer- ica, or some other Zionist body of their choice; and thus to S.
