All Denominations
Agree on Adoption
of Funeral Guide

(Direct JTA Teletype Wire
to The Jewish News)

NEW YORK — The Synagogue
Council of America announced
Wednesday the adoption, on behalf
of its Reform, Orthodox and Con-
servative constituents, a guide to
funeral practices.
The statement emphasized the
traditional aspects of simplicity
and equality which have marked
Jewish funerals in the past and
which are in keeping with the

"the lavishness, lack of solemnity
and other violations of sacred Jew-
ish tradition occurring in the
American Jewish community in
connection with funerals and the
subsequent mourning period."
The SCA urged on all Jews prac-
tices to reflect the fact that "a
funeral is a profoundly religious
occasion."
The statement proposed that
the funeral be simple, reflect-
ing dignity and sanctity. Caskets
should be closed because "pub-
lic viewing is inconsistent with
Jewish traditions" and caskets
"should not be ostentatious. Dur-
ing the traditional period of
mourning (shivah), "visitors
should not expect nor contribute
to the creation of festive hospi-
tality.
"Charitable contributions," the
statement emphasized, "are a
more appropriate testimonial to
the memory of the deceased than
are gifts."
The SCA said that the national
synagogue organizations would
conduct "an ongoing program" to
educate affiliated congregations
and membership concerning these
funeral standards. The SCA also
said that the national synagogue
groups would urge their lay lea-
dership "to develop programs de-
signed to eliminate objectionable
practices wherever they exist."
