A Statement of Concern to All Membership Groups
The approaching American Jewish Conference ex-
emplifies the effort of American Jewry to mobilize its
strength and to unify its effort in behalf of world Jewry
in the post-war world.
We, in America, are practically the only community
of free Jews in the world who are in a position to speak
with authority in demanding equality of rights for our
Jewish brethren wherever they may dwell.
We, in Detroit, have a responsibility and duty to
perform in making this community venture a success,
and in assuring that the most competent and .best-
qualified representatives of the Detroit Jewish com-
munity speak for us at the American Jewish Conference.
