Friday, June 2, 1944 THE JEWISH NEWS Page Five 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."
