.. Jewish Community Council delegates and Detroit
electors for the American Jewish Conference will meet on
Tuesday to discuss' the future of the American Jewish Con-
ference, which meets in Pittsburgh Dec. 2-4. • This special
meeting, called at the.request of the . Detroit delegates to the
American Jewish... Conference, will • be held - in the Jewish
Center_ auditorium begiruiing at
8:15 p. m. The public is welcome.
James I. Ellmann, president of
the Jewish Community Council,
and Morris L. Schaver, chairman
of the Detroit delegation to the
American Jewish Conference,
have called upon Council dele-
gates and Conference electors to
attend this meeting, innk ~ a joint
letter of invitation in which they
point out that "this is no ordinary
meeting. The American Jewish
Conference is of extreme impor-
tance, and its future program
will be determined by the wishes
of American Jewish communi-
ties."
Coming to. Detroit
Dr. Joshua Trachtenberg of
Easton, Pa., chairman of the Con-
ference sub-committee on the
post-war. status of -Jews, is com-
ing to Detroit especially for this
meeting, to speak about the rec-
ord of the Conference and its fu-
ture. Some idea of Dr. Trachten-
berg's views on the course to be
followed by the Conference at its
forthcoming session and later are
given in his article in the Nov. 3
issue of the Congress Weekly. Dr.
Trachtenberg holds that the orig-
inal purposes and functions of
the Conference nave been vir-
tually fulfilled; and that the Con-
ference should now become a
permanent assembly, composed
of popularly elected representa-
tives of organized local commu-
nities. He advocates a change in
the structure of the Conference
at the Pittsburgh meeting rec-
ommends steps to be taken to
reorganize the Conference for an
expanded program and stresses
the need for basing the Confer-
ence or Assembly on the ex-
pressed wishes and ideas of local
Jewish communities, rather than
on national organizations.

will be discussion from the floor
after Dr. Trachtenberg's talk,

ence's record and future pros-
