Community Council Urges Jacobs Named Name Candidates to Seek
1 Registration for Voting
Labor Advisor Council Election Sunday

Civic Duty Is Stressed in Appeal to Member Organizations
Issued by Dr, Glazer and Joseph Bernstein, Co-
Chairmen of Internal Relations Committee

An urgent reminder was addressed this week to the
Jewish community of Detroit by Dr. B. Benedict Glazer and
Joseph Bernstein, co-chairmen of the Internal Relations
Committee of the Jewish. Community Council, pointing to
the importance of registering for the forthcoming elections.
The reminder took the forth of a letter sent to the leaders

of the 204 organizations affiliat-$.
ed with the Jewish Community
Council. In this letter the organ-
izations were urged to have all
their members register before
June 21 in order to be able to
vote in the primary elections on
July 11. Emphasis was placed on
the responsibility which rests on
every citizen in a democracy to
exercise his right to vote. Fail-
ure to do so was characterized as ReportS to Be Submitted;
"one of the melt serious chal-
Plan Elaborate Pageant;
lenges which any democratic so-
Public Is Invited
ciety has to face."

VHS Annual
Election
On June 14

Compulsory Voting

In their letter Dr. Glazer and
Mr. Bernstein wrote as follows:
"If we lived in our sister-de-
mocracy, Australia, it would
probably not be necessary for us
or for any other civic body to
urge citizens to register and vote
in elections. The people of Aus-
tralia have seen fit to establish
compulsory voting, under penalty
of a fine for those who are de-
linquent in this basic responsibil-
ity of citizenship.
"Since we do not have such
regulations here many of our cit-
izens neglect their duty and do
not vote, without repeated re-
minders. We do not have 'to tell
you that this is one of the most
serious challenges which any de-
mocratic society has to face.

All Should Vote

"As a civic-minded body, the
Jewish Community Council is in-
terested in seeing to-it that every
Jewish citizen of Detroit per-
forms his duty in registering and
voting in, the July primary and
November election. The Com-
munity Council is not concerned
as to HOW anyone votes, but it
believes strongly that everyone
SHOULD vote.
"With this in mind, we should
like to urge you, as a leader of
your organization to focus the
attention of your members on the
urgency of registering before
June 21, and of voting in the
primary on July 11. We suggest
that you refer to this at all your
meetings between now and June
21, and that you SEND A SPE-
CIAL LETTER ABOUT THIS TO
YOUR MEMBERS. The Com-
munity Council is prepared to as-
sist you in getting such a letter
to your members on the station-
ery of your organization. If you
will call the office, such help
will be given to you at once."
