Revealing New Text Portrays Fluidity
Of America's Jewish Communities
By MILTON STEINBERG
JEWS IN TRANSITION, by Rabbi Albert
I. Gordon, University of Minnesota
Press. 332 pp.
American Jewry is undergoing
vast and continuing transforni-
ations. On their s nature, how-
ever, and the directions in
which they tend, precise data
are lacking or, if they exist, only
fragmentary. But the fate of
Judaism in America depends,
among other things, on the con-.
duct of Jews and this in turn
on their' self-knowledge. It is
therefore not impossible that a
people m a y be perishing for
want of vision.
To the correction of this state
a major contribution is made by
Rabbi Albert I. Gordon, Execu-
tive Director of . the United
Synagogue of America, in his
"Jews in Transition, A Study of
Jewish Life in a Mid-Western
City." In it he has studied the
Jewish community of Minne-
apolis in all the aspects of its
being and, without fear or fav-
or; presented what he found.
As a result the book is rich
in . exact data on a wide variety
of themes: population, crimin-
ality, home observances, inter-
marriage, and much else
The richest elements in "Jews
in Transition" are biographical
and autobiographical. As rabbi
and personal friend, Rabbi Gor-
don knew intimately many of
Minneapolis' Jews and could
draw upon their life for mate-
rials. This elevates the book,
without loss of technical com-
petence; from the dryness of
most sociological treatises into
something not too far removed
in warmth and vividness from
the excitement of a novel.
In his study, we have detailed
knowledge of the life and growth
of an American Jewish communi-
ty in all its phases. It is demon-
strated that Jewish tradition-
alism in the Ghetto sense is in
rereat, perhaps in rout. What-
ever form Judaism takes in the
future American scene, assum-
ing it survives, it will not be
that which prevailed '-- pre-
emancipation days. -The. Jewish-
scene, Dr. Gordon demonstrates,
is fluid, which is both its peril
and opportunity.
Finally, if self-knowledge is
both an end in itself for all sig-
nificant living and also a proper
point of departure for all pro-
grams of action, then a large
importance invests this book.
IRO Chief Asks UN
For Status of DPs
GENEVA. (JTA) — Strong
representations have been made
by Director-Gen. J: Donald
Kingsley of the- International
Refugee Organization to t h e
United Nations on the future
status of • the refugees and dis-
placed persons remaining in
Germany, Austria and Italy after
the IRO ends its existence next
June 30.
Kingsley pointed out the re-
fugees probably will be subject
to discrimination unless protect-
ed by an international agree-
ment.
(The World Jewish Congress
has called on the'United Nations
to provide'full international pro-
tection for refugees and dis-
placed persons, after the ter-
mination of the IRO by appoint-
ing a high commissioner for the
purpose.)
750,000-Tree Forest
To Honor Weizmann
LONDON (JTA) — More than
$700,000 will be raised here with-
in three weeks for the purpose
of planting a 750,000-tree
"Weizmann Forest" in Israel, it
was announced following a
meeting at Grosvenor House at
which a national committee of
400 members was set up. The
meeting was presided over by
Lord Herbert Samuel.
Of the 900,000 species of ani-
mals known, more than 600,000
of them are insects.
