as Guest Speaker

We Extend a Cordial Invitation to All

Come and hear this outstanding American Jewish tribune discuss the real issues involved.

Enjoy a rare intellectual treat, and express- your own views on the vital question:

"SHALL A JEWISH COMMUNAL INSTITUTION RESPECT KASHRUTH,
ONE OF THE FOREMOST TENETS OF OUR HISTORIC FAITH?"

We Believe:

1. That the Jews of Detroit who have been -working
and waiting several decades for a Jewish hospital
had in mind an ALL-KOSHER institution, rather than
a ghetto-kitchen set apart from the larger TREFA
facilities.

2. That the non-Jewish community will respect us for, the
observance of our 3,000-year-old Dietary ,Laws dis-
tinctly- associated with the Jewish cuisine.

3. 'That the general 'administration of Sinai Hospital will
be more economical and more efficient if Kosher food
is provided to ALL patients except those on a special
diet.

4. That the matter of conscience involved for thousands
of local Jewish families who may at one time or
another require the facilities of the hospital, far
outweighs the negligible inconvenience for the few
who object to an all-Kosher menu.

,

5. That G-d, the Healer of the Sick by whose command
we build hospitals and do works of charity, will bless
the work of our . hands. We dare not trespass his
Divine Law hallowed by long ages of Jewish life and
martyrdom for that very cause.
