to do with Mr. Brandeis' efforts to
conciliate the differences between
several central Jewish organiza-
tions at a time when a certain
project aimed at greater unity was
the subject of an intense contro-
versy.
It was remarkable that during a
crucial time in his own career, just
after he was named as a member
of the Supreme Court by President
Wilson, Mr. Brandeis should have
taken the time to write such a long
report of a meeting.
The article, called "When Mr.
Brandeis Met With The Opposi-
tion," gives an account of a meet-
ing with several groups of Jewish
leaders, Mr. Brandeis having taken
time to write a letter of seven
typewritten pages outlining the
points of view of the different op-
posing groups. Mr. Lipsky was
then head of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America, and both the ZOA
and the original provisional com-
mittee for an American Jewish
Congress were involved in the
dispute.

Stuart Simms Receives
Med School Scholarship
Rabbi Joel J. Litke of the Gemil-
uth Chassodim Synagogue.
The article pertained to many
instances whereby mourners and
friends leave graveside services
before the casket is lowered into
the grave.
Rabbi Litke even stated the
reason for such actions, and has
asked the cemetery authorities to,
shall we say, offset such actions
by appealing to the mourners and
friends attending the graveside
services.
People of the Jewish faith have
a tendency of giving way to their
emotions, especially when attend-
ing graveside services at the
cemetery. Far too many of them
throw themselves on the ground
and other actions that they can-
not control due to grief.
To uphold the Jewish law is
what our obligations are, but
rabbis must be somewhat flexible
in such delicate matters, and I
think it is far better for people
to let someone else lower the
casket into the grave, than they
should stay and watch and leave
with an impression that will affect
their lives for some time to come.
We like to remember our rela-
tives and our dear friends as they
looked when they were well, and
by the same token many many
Jews attending graveside services
want to leave with the thought in
mind that they have fulfilled
their obligation and leave after
the services without taking with
them an impression that can prey
on their minds.
