Council Outlines Its History During
Currently Celebrated Special Month

"Your Council and You" is
the theme of Jewish Community
Council Month, marking the ap-
proaching 21st anniversary of
the establishment of the Council
with a series of meetings and
special events, which will cul-
minate in a community - wide
Council institute and dinner on
March 9.
The 340-organization Council
family was urged to invite spe-
cial speakers, available upon
calling the Council office, dur-
ing Jewish Community Council
Month, now in progress, to dis-
cuss the activities of the Coun-
cil and the relationship between
the individual organizations and
the Council.
A statement from the Coun-
cil issued this week in connec-
tion with Council Month states
that "the establishment of the
Council in 1937 was reminiscent
of the European Kehilla." It
points out that the Council was
established with a view toward
creating a bridge between "the
past and the future democratic-
ally organized Jewish commu-
nity." The statement continues:
"Although established in re-
sponse to the obvious need for a
closer co-ordination of local de-
fense efforts, it soon became

life, but it must first have a
Jewish community which was to
be defended. This, it was felt,
would 'be possible only if there
were effective partivipation in
the larger community life by all
segments of the community—
the religious groups, fraternal
organizations, Zionist groups,
Landsmanschaften, women's, or-
ganizations, etc. It meant also
that just as it is important to
have defensive efforts it is also
important to maintain the dig-
nity and integrity of Jewish
communal living through care-
ful concentration also upon the
problems of the inner Jewish

community. It also meant that
decisions affecting the entire
community should be arrived at
through the active sharing of
ideas by all the respective
groupings within Jewish life, so
that a Jewish voice truly rep-
resentative of the entire organ-
ized community could be heard.
At the same time the identity
and the goals of the respective
affiliated organizations were to
be maintained.
"Taking into account the in-
creasing movement to sub-
urbia of the Jewish popula-
tion, a new Southern Oakland
County Committee has been
established and the name of
the Council was changed to
the Jewish Community Coun-
cil of Metropolitan Detroit.
"To combat anti-Semitic mani-
festations and to protect and
further our American demo-
cratic heritage, the Council
takes an active role in combat-
ing bigotry, prejudice, and dis-
crimination, many times in co-
operation with other, non-Jew-
ish, community groups.
"To deepen and extend appre-
ciation and knowledge about the
Jewish heritage, the Council's
Culture Commission carries on a
varied program of activities, in-
cluding radio and television
presentations.
"The standing committees of
the Council have responsibility
for various aspects of Council
work. The internal relations,
community relations, Joint Com-
mittee of the Zionist and Com-
munity Councils, arbitration and
conciliation committee; are com-
posed of lay people who set
basic policy.
"Among the members of the
Council are branches of na-
tional Jewish organizations, in-
cluding the American Jewish
Committee, the American Jew-
ish Congress, the Anti-Defama-
tion League of B'nai B'rith, the
Jewish Labor Committee, the
Jewish War Veterans, the Union
of American Hebrew Congrega-
tions, the Union of Orthodox
Jewish Congregations, and the
United Synagogue of America.
The Council is a member of the
National Community Relations
Advisory Council.
"To mark the important anni-
versary of the Jewish Commu-
nity Council, organizations are
urged to write to the Council at
163 Madison Avenue, Suite 225,
or to ball WOodward 2-6710 in
order to arrange for a speaker
to , discuss the role of the Coun-
cil in our community during the
Jewish Community Council
Month."
