Sen. Humphrey Reassures Jewry
on Slaughter Bill Before Congress
NEW YORK — Sen, Hubert
E. Humphrey (Dem., Minn.) has
assured the Synagogue Council
of America that he "would not
be part of any legislative pro-
gram which would affect the
freedom of the Jewish people to
adhere to the dietary laws of
Judaism."
In a letter addressed to Rabbi
Marc H Tanenbaum, executive
director of the Council, Sen.
Humphrey asserted that "no
bill coming out of my sub-
committee will in any way
conflict or reflect upon the
religious practice of kosher
slaughter."
The Minnesota Democrat, who
is chairman of the Subcommit-
tee on Agriculture and Forestry,
recently held hearings in Wash-
ington on Senate Bill 1636 "to
require humane methods in the
slaughter of livestock and poul-
try: ,
Testifying in behalf of the
American Jewish Congress, the
Synagogue Council of America,
the New York Board of Rabbis,
and the Kashruth Supervisors
Union, Leo Pfeffer, associate
general counsel of the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, proposed
that shechitah, slaughtering of
livestock or poultry in accord-
ance with Jewish religious tra-
dition, be designated as among
the approved humane methods
of slaughter.
If the U.S. Congress enacts
this bill with this provision; it
FIRST QUALITY
. Pullets, Caponettes, Fryers
Ducks and Turkeys
will become the law of this
country that shechitah is a
humane method of slaughter.
According to Pfeffer, "thiS
would be of great value in
other countries faced with an
anti-shechitah campaign."
Previous to Pfeffer's testi-
mony, the Senate bill exempted
shechitah from its ban on non-
humane methods of slaughter,
but left an impression that
shechitah was nevertheless non-
hum ane.
The representations " of the
Synagogue Council to Sen.
Humphrey on this matter began
in June 1955. The Synagogue
Council is the central national
agency representing the Ortho-
dox, Conservative and Reform
rabbinic a n d congregational
bodies of Judaism in the United
States.
