KIAMESHA LAKE, N.Y. —
All-day Jewish schools are a
major instrument for the de-
velopment of a "knowledge-
able professional and lay lead-
ership of the future," Rabbi
Jacob E. Segal, president of the
Hillel Day School of Detroit,
told the Rabbinical Assembly.
The Assembly, the interna-
tional association of Conserva-
tive rabbis, held its sixty-second
annual five-day convention at
the Concord Hot( I here.
Rabbi Segal, spiritual leader
of Adas Shalom Synagogue, said
that day schools have an inte-
grated curriculum that stresses
Hebrew and classical Jewish
studies, and sets maximal stand-
ards in the field of secular stud-
ies. The goal of a well-rounded
Jewish education, he said, "is
synthesized with the sancta of
democracy and integrated with
the highest values of the Ameri-
can democratic ideals and prin-
ciples."
He spoke of the need for es-
tablishing more Jewish all-day
schools as a training ground for
the development of leaders. He
outlined the obstacles that must
he hurdled, and the challenging
factors that operate in favor of
the successful development of
such day schools.
"A vital Jewish leadership
can be assured, "Rabbi Segal de-
clared, "only by the most in-
tensive maximal Hebraic re-
ligious training available at a
modern day schcol — fully in-
tegrated with the best demo-
cratic values of the -American
environment."
He noted that in 1935 there
were only 17 Jewish day schools
in the U.S., while today there
are close to 280, located in
about 80 communities through-
out the U.S., with a total en-
rollment of more than 55,000
pupils. The number of children
attending all kinds of Jewish
schools — including the one-
day-a-week Sunday schools, the
supplementary afternoon He-
brew schools and all-day schools
— totals more than 550,000.
The n e w president of the
Rabbinical Assembly, Rabbi
Theodore Friedman of South
Tefillin Group Holds
Lunch at Beth Abraham
A final brunch for members
of the Beth Abraham Tefillin
Group, the Bar Mitzvot of the
past year and their parents will
be held 10 a.m. Sunday at the
Synagogue. Certificates will be
awarded.
A resolution adopted at the
conclusion of the convention,
dealing with Russia's 3,000,000
Jews, proposed unified Ameri-
can-Jewish action on the follow-
ing three points: "A program
that will constantly seek to
impress the anguished concern
of American Jewry over the
fate of their co-religionists in
the USSR; a clearly formulated
demand that the same rights
and facilities and prerogatives
afforded to other religious com-
munities in the Soviet Union be
extended to Russian Jewry, and
a comprehensive program that
will keep the fate of Russian
Jewry on the top priority of
the agenda of American Jewry."
The Assembly endorsed a
recommendation from its com-
mittee on Jewish laws and
standards for a conference be-
tween "representatives of Jew-
ish community centers and rab-
binical bodies, for the purpose
of discussing the goals and pro-
grams of these centers.
Orange, N.J., called upon the
American Jewish community to
make available all presently un-
used facilities in synagogues
and community centers for the
growing network of day schools.
Rabbi Friedman noted with
concern that many existing day
schools are presently housed in
crowded, inadequate quarters
and that "the opening of ad-
ditional day schools, with many
children waiting to attend them,
is being delayed by the criti-
cal shortage in classrooms."
