THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS — Fr iday, May 27, 1960 —

Synagogue Council for 'Collective
Voice' to Speak for U.S. Jewry

NEW YORK (JTA) — The
elimination of "competitive and
antagonistic trends" in Ameri-
can Jewish life and the promo-
tion of a "cooperative Ameri-
can Jewish community repre-
senting 'the interests of Jew-
ry in relation to the general
population and before govern-
mental agencies," was urged at
the General Assembly of the
Synagogue Council of America
held a Columbia University.
Rabbi Abraham M. Heller,
chairman of . the General As-
sembly Committee, said: "While
recognizing the existing legiti-
mate difference in ideology and
modes of expression among na-
tional Jewish organizations, the
Synagogue Council and its con-
stituent organizations strongly
believe that American Jewry
must possess a community in-
terest with a democratic, col-
lective voice reflecting the will
of the various Jewish group-
ings."
Dr. Sidney B. Hoenig, pro-
fessor of Jewish history at
Yeshiva University, proposed
the revival of a system of
regional communities, unit-
ing diverse groups of congre-
gations and denominational
branches of Jewry into one
body of general Jewish iden-
tification. "The creation of a
unified community will not
only revitalize Jewry inter-
nally but would also, by eli-
minating present-day pseudo-
spokesmen for Judaism, result
in setting up an authoritative
voice for the Jewish people
in America," he stated.
Dr. Israel Goldstein listed as
"the major commitments of the
American Jewish community in
the hierarchy of existing prior-
ities, the synagogue, including
Jewish education, Jewish phil-
anthropy, aid to Israel, anti-
defamation activities, concern
with other Jewish communities
in the world, contact with other
non-Jewish groups in the United
States and concern with the
traditional American protection
of minority races and creeds."
He termed the current reli-
gious revival superficial and
urged that "American rabbis
should be m or e critical and
more demanding." He called for
an intensification of Jewish
religious practice and religious
education. He also urged great-
er support for the higher insti-

tutions of Jewish learning.
Rabbi Bernard Bamberger,
president of the Central Con-
ference of American Rabbis,
spoke of the need to stress the
spiritual tone of the synagogue
rather than the financial. He
pointed out that Jews were sus-
taining losses through mixed
marriages and inadequate nat-
ural growth. "We need numbers
for sheer survival," he said.
"On the higher level, the ques-
tion is whether we are doing
justice to the faith of the pro-
phets and sages if we cultivate
it only within the narrow cir-
cle of persons of Jewish blood
and do not present it as per-
suasively and ardently as we
can to all who may benefit by
learning and practicing it."

Mrs. Salk Explains
Why Jews Don't Report
Complaints on Bias

PITTSBURGH (JTA) — Mrs.
Jonas Salk, wife of the discov-
erer of the Salk polio vaccine,
has reported that Jews do not
apply to the Pittsburgh Mayor's
Commission on Human Rela-
tions when they are discrimin-
ated against partly for fear of
being labeled "loud-mouthed or
trouble making."
This was reported in the
Pittsburgh Jewish Outlook,
which cited Mrs. Salk as giving
another reason for the "very
small percentage of complaints"
from Jews. She said there was
a "pretty good grapevine,"
through which Jews know from
one another where they are not
wanted. They just stay away,
she said, and so unpleasant in-
cidents are avoided.

Rabbis Propose Standards
for Wedding Ceremonies

WASHINGTON (JTA)—The
Washington Board of Rabbis,
noting the approach of the June
seasons for weddings, listed a
new set of standards for the
ceremony to "deepen the spirit-
ual dimension" of the wedding
and to maintain proper condi-
tions of dignity and beauty.
The rabbis recommended that
weddings be held in a syna-
gogue, rather than in secular
surroundings, and that the
music played be Jewish.
They urged that alcoholic
beverages should not be served
before the ceremony and that
photographs should n o t be
taken of the wedding during the
service. . Couples were also
asked to obServe the traditional
practice of attending religious
worship with the respective fam-
ilies on the Sabbath before the
wedding.
