Jewish Education Adopts Unified Plan
For Improving, Expanding Facilities

NEW YORK, (JTA)—A four-
pronged plan of cooperative ac-
tion to marshal the diverse re-
ligious and organizational ele-
ments in American Jewish life
behind one common program of
improving and expanding Jew-
ish educational activities was
adopted by delegates represent-
ing organizations and communi-
ties in all parts of the United
States and Canada, at the na-
tional conference on Jewish ed-
ucation at Hotel Biltmore. The
conference is sponsored by the
American Association for Jew-
ish Education, with the coopera-
tion of 32 major national Jewish
organizations.
The program adopted by the
delegates constitutes the first
agreement in American Jewish
history on community-wide co-
operative' action in the field of
Jewish educational endeavor
supplementary to the public
schools.. The delegates agreed
that diversity in types of Jewish
schools and in their underlying
philosophies was desirable and
in keeping with the American
t r a d i t i on of religio-cultural
democracy. The program follows:
1. The creation of a ,perma-
nent advisory council, repre-
senting all the major organiza-
tions in Jewish life, to work
with the American Association
in developing, promoting and
expanding Jewish educational
activities.

2. The adoption of a basic
statement on community re-
sponsibility for Jewish educa-
tion, which declares that Jewish
education "must occupy a po-
sition of primacy in parental
and community responsibility,"
and which calls upon all Jew-
ish communities, organizations,
and individuals in the United
States to provide full financial
support for Jewish education.
3. The adoption of a resolu-
tion calling for a full-scale na-
tionwide study on the history,
progress, effectiveness, achieve-
ment and status of every Jewish
educational institution in the
United States, involving the vol-
untary c o o p e r at ion of all
schools, religious bodies, com-
munities and organizations.
4. The adoption of a "Char-
ter of the Rights of the Jewish
Child," which points out that
the Jewish community bears .re-
sponsibilities in relation to its
children, supplementary to those
owed to all children by the gen-
eral American community,. and
pledges to dedicate all efforts,
talents a n d resources of the
community to the discharge of
those obligations.
Michael A. Stavitsky, who was
re-elected president of the
American Association, pointed
out that the conference was the
first assembled solely for the
purpose of stimulating Jewish
education in America.
