THE JEWISH NEWS
Friday, March 14, 1952
—
Shevitz's intolerant misinter-
pretation of our news story
which, we believe, represented
impartial reporting. We ad-
here to the view that a pub-
lic meeting at which ALL ele-
ments are given the right to
express their opinions and in
whose deliberations all have
an equal voice as voters is
democratic. There were un-
fortunate occurrences at the
meeting which are touched
upon editorially in this issue,
but it does not help commu-
nity unity to IMPUTE delib-
erate unethical approaches to
our reportorial and editorial
staff. We gladly present Mr.
Shevitz's direct quotation of
his own comment with rela-
tion to making ugly faces. On
the score of the last point he
makes, we offer the following
facts: 'The only figure that
was available to us at the time
we went to press—before noon
on Wednesday—was the figure
we used in our report. Upon
receipt of Mr. Shevitz's criti-
cisms we requested and secur-
ed the exact wording of the
Federation by-laws providing
for a two-thirds vote of those
present on any proposed
amendment. The rule states:
"These by-laws may be alter-
ed, amended or repealed and
new ones enacted by - the vote
of two-thirds of the members of
Federation PRESENT at any
meeting of the members, in the
call for which the substance of
the proposed alteration, amend-
ment, repeal or enactment has
been set forth."
-
The supporters of the Coun-
cil amendment did not num-
ber a majority'of those pres-
ent, or a majority of the votes
marked, and therefore not a
two-thirds vote of the 1,012
present or those who marked
their ballots, and our report
therefore was correct. In the
interest of accuracy, we quote
in the editorial in this issue
an unofficial figure given us
of those who reportedly marked
their ballots in opposition to
the amendment.
A reporter does not express
opinions, but he does reflect
the mood of an audience, and
our reports echoed an over,
whelming majority sentiment.
Federation President Samuel
Rubiner is well able to speak
for himself, but our view of
the Federation meeting is that
it assumed the form of a vot-•
ing booth where you cast your
ballot—even though a Town
Hall Forum, preceded the vot-
ing—but wherein you are un-
able to rewrite the published
amendment. Much as we sym-
pathized with Rabbi Wohlgel-
ernter's viewpoint, we there-
fore believe that he could have
been as much out of order as
Mr, Zwerdling definitely was.
Mr. Shevitz unfairly con-
tends that we did not publish
HIS detailed story of the
Council - Federation dispute.
The Jewish News, !vhose col-
umns always have been open
for free and frank discussion
of community problems, pre-
sented the Council's viewpoint
in full in its isue of Feb. 11, in
its report of the Council meet-
ing of Jan. 31.
