Rabbi Frani Urges Support For Stephen Wise Dinner-Dance Calling for community-wide support of the Stephen S. Wise dinner-dance, being sponsored by the Women's Division of the American Jewish Congress, to be held in commemoration of the late Dr. Wise's birthday, at the Latin Quarter, Sunday evening, March 14, Rabbi Leon Fram, president of the Michigan Coun- cil of American Jewish Congress, issued the following appeal: "Stephen S. Wise was primar- ily a champion of social right- eousness. Crowds came to hear him speak on controversial issues both from the pulpit of the Free Synagogue, at Carnegie Hall, - and from the lecture platform. To him democracy meant not only a society in which all men were free, but a society in which freedom also meant the op- portunity to live a complete life and the oppor- tunity to enjoy a decent stand- ard of life in- cluding educa- I;ion and culture. "His bold ad- vocacy of right- Rabbi Fram eous causes re- gardless - of their popularity im- pelled him to become the leader of the Zionist movement in America at a time when Zionism was extremely unpopular in the field of Reform Judaism and had not yet found wide accept- ance among Orthodox Jews. "The State of Israel which, like Moses, he never lived to enter, in a large degree owes its existance to the leadership of Dr. Wise. "It was Rabbi Wise who first advocated the idea of Jews laboring to protect other minor- ities. It was he who first stated that the future status of the Jews in America depended on all the people of America being equally the beneficiaries of de- mocracy." Numerous entertainment fea- tures have been planned for the event, including music by the Fenby-Carr Orchestra, a 16 girl chorus line, the Phyllis Seymour Rhythmettes and several night club acts. Fund-raising chairmen i n - clucied Mrs. Lester Miller, divi- sion chairman, and chapter chairmen Mesdames Kurt Sing- er, Gerald Kohn, Sam Benavie, Saul Schmidt, Harvey Sibrack, Philip Einstandig, Myron Cole, EL: t e r Chuderoff, M. Shore, Joseph Rubin, Sam Levitt, Sam •Z. Goldberg, Allen Freeman and Louis Redstone. Men's group chairmen are Marshall Brenner, Morton Der- mer and Mark Kaminsky.
