Are Suburban Communities Becoming 'Gilded Ghettoes'? By the Oak-Woodser Is the movement of the Jew- ish population to the suburbs just another change in area without actually being a step to liquidate the ghetto society in which the majority of the Jew- ish community has lived now for decades? This is the big chunk of ques- Dr. Morton Sobel to Speak tion bitten off. by Trude Weiss- Rosmarin in a recent number at Services in Pontiac Dr. Morton J.

In this sur- on the theme, "Your Bill of vey the Jewish population' is shown to have increased from Rights and Mine." 10.96 in 1941 to 39.68 in 1951, and today it is' estimated that Jews in the community how number in excess of the Gen- tiles. PLANNING A HOLIDAY PARTY FOR HOME or OFFICE! Mrs. Weiss-Rosmarin goes on to say that this "ghettoization trend in Jewish suburbia" is disturbing not only to Gentiles and real estate brokers, but to Jewish community relations agencies, as well. What causes this rapid Jewish growth and the subsequent de- cline is fairly well established —the desire of Jews to reside in areas where there are at least some other Jews and the wish of some Gentiles to move from areas where Jews are moving in. What can be done to halt the trend is a question that goes unanswered. It's the same 'sort of question that our own com- munity fails to answer when it moves from areas like Twelfth Street, Linwood and Dexter.

The author moves closer to home when she quotes Boris Joffe, executive director oi the Jewish Community Coun- cil of Metropolitan Detroit as stating that one Detroit sub- urb (and it can be only Oak Park) has a Jewish population of 60 percent of the total. JACK'S (Mr. Joffe says the figure is quoted inaccurately, that it is closer to 40 percent. Here, how- ever, the story is a bit different. The situation is of the buying of new home's by Jews rather than of Gentiles leaving the area.) There is, however, a trend being established.

One feels certain, however, that what is happening in Crestwood Heights will not hap- pen in Oak Park. There, while the Jewish community is in the majority, they seek, them- selves, to act as the minority. Mrs. Weiss-Rosmarin says that the study shows that 'for the sake of acceptance by Gen- tiles, the Jews are prepared to support the status quo on the Board of Education, in t h e Home and School Association and the school system." Regardless of any eventual outcome, it certainly is n o t worth sacrificing principles just for the sake of acceptance. It is time we learned—and it is apparent that in Oak Park and Huntington Woods we have — that we can't duck issues by playing ostrich and hiding our faces in the sand. We must seek ways of con- vincing our Gentile neighbors not to panic just because Jews are moving into an area of de- velopment, just as we eventually will have ourselves to learn not to panic when a Negro family moves into our area. A Latke Ball is planned by the Sisterhood of Cong. Beth Shalom at 9 p.m., Dec. 21, in the synagogue, 14601 W. Lincoln, at Tyler, in Oak Park. Dick Stein and his orchestra, will play music for dancing, and there will be a sneak preview of a forthcoming Sisterhood pro- duction, "Around the World in 80 Dreighs." Refreshments w i 11 include latkes, cake and coffee, and there will be prizes awarded, according to Mrs. Joseph Cohen, social chairman.
