Religious Tracts
In Newspapers
.
Newspapers were told to stick
to reporting the news and to
leave religion to the church and
synagogue in a sermon by Rabbi
Leon Fram of Temple Israel at
sabbath eve services Fr i d a y,
April 14.
Rabbi Fram attacked _the ap-
pearance in newspapers of re-
ligious tracts, particularly those
preceding the recent Lenten
season; "The Greatest Story
Ever 'Told," by Fulton Oursler,
which appeared in the Detroit
Free Press; and "The Trial of
Jesus from a Lawyer's View-
point," by Judge Frank A.. Pic-
ard, carried in the Detroit News.
Oursler's series was described
as an insidious instrument for
propagating hatred. Rabbi Fram
expressly noted the quotes
wherein the Jewish High Priest
is planning the extermination
of all Christians, something,
„Rabbi Fram said, for which
`,,,there is no factual evidence.
! Rabbi Fr am praised Judge
Picard for his record as a liberal
and his work as chairman of
the Michigan branch of the
American Christian P a 1 estine
Committee. However, he termed
Picard's series "inflammatory,"
claiming that in the final ana-
lyses it leaves the Jews to bear
the burden of guilt for Christ's
death.
The rabbi scored newspapers
for publishing in the form of a
religious tract, hate propaganda
that they would "never dream
of publishing in their news or
editorial columns."

terhood will observe its annual
