Friday, June 2, 1967-7 Detroiters Rally to Help Israel; THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Asked to Pay Campaign Pledges UAHC Board Backs Dr. Eisendrath (Continued from Page 1) President," according to Eitan Raz One of the Israeli student group. "We have urged them to express their solidarity with Israel and call upon the United States both to hon- or her commitment to Israei's de- fense and to support free naviga- tion in the Gulf of Aqaba." Hyman Safran, president of the Jewish Welfare Federation, said that a check for $250,000 has been sent this week to the United Jewish Appeal to help meet the cash crisis. Curtailment of Israel govern- ment funds for its welfare services during the present crisis is creat- ing demands on Detroiters to sup- ply immediate funds. A cablegram sent to Max M. Fisher of Detroit, national general chairman of the United Jewish Ap- peal, by Rabbi Herbert A.. Fried- man, executive vice-chairman of the agency, who is now in Israel, said that the "inevitable economic dislocation causes much hardship to many thousands of new immi- grants in the country." Friedman pointed out in his cablegram that the Israel govern- ment had informed the Jew is h Agency that it could not continue its grants to agency programs of immigrant housing, farm settle- ments, relief and welfare services for recent immigrants to the country. This means the agency must increase its income from pri- vate sources to continue its life- saving assistance to the needy. Fisher and Safran have sent a a special letter to contributors to the Allied Jewish Campaign, asking for accelerated payments on pledges made during the drive which ended May 10. The letter pointed out that in many instances the breadwinner in the family had been called for military duty and that the wife and children were left with little means of support. Friedman said that "words can- not possibly convey the full pic- ture and certainly cannot possibly describe emotions involved. This is a moment for everyone to exert himself to the utmost. I am sure Our good people and communities will understand and rally quickly." Irwin I. Cohn, chairman of the cash mobilization conunittee of the campaign, called an emergency meeting Monday to set in motion plans for meeting the cash crisis with a separate emergency cam- paign. Funds received at the Jewish Welfare Federation, 163 Madi- son, whether they are payments on pledges made during the Allied Jewish Campaign or new contributions, will be dispatched immediately to meet the emer- gency, William Avrunin, execu- tive director of the Federation, said. The Council of Orthodox Rabbis of Detroit proclaimed a fast day Monday in accord with a directive from the Agudath Harabomm, Union of Orthodox Rabbis of United States and Canada. Member rabbis received tele- grams late Friday afternoon, and soon after were announcing the fast day from the bima. Similar proclamations were issued by other rabbinic bodies, such as the Rab- binical Council of America and Igud Harabonim of America, as well as Conservative and Reform bodies. Special prayers for o peace were recited in sy na ggues throughout the city. The council suggested the fol- lowing special Psalms to be recited daily for the duration of the crisis: 13, 17, 20, 22, 28, 31, 69, 80, 83, 130 and 142. The Zionist Organization of De- troit, also acting in accord with a national directive, asked its members to send contributions to the ZOD office, 18501 W. Ten Mile, for an emergency informa- tion fund. The Zionist Organiza- tion of America's national execu- tive committee has set a goal of S500,000 for an expanded public affairs program to counteract anti- Israeli propaganda. State of Israel Bonds, in an- nouncing its own plans to meet the emergency, said this week that the previously scheduled June 12 din- ner honoring The Jewish News and its editor Philip Slomovitz will be held in Cobo Hall instead of the Sheraton-Cadillac Hotel to allow as many persons as possible to attend. It was also announced that the price of the dinner has been low- ered to. accommodate a wider seg- ment of the community. `Tefilin; 'Grace' Newest Jewish Tract Booklets Burning Bush Press (218 E. 70th, NY 21) has issued two new pam- phlets in the Jewish Tract Series. Continuing the practice of pub- lishing brochures that present the Conservative Jewish interpreta- tions of Jewish practices, the two newest booklets deal with "Tefilin" and "The Grace." The series is a joint publication project of the National Academy for Adult Jewish Studies and the Rabbinical Assembly. In "Tefilin," the author, Rabbi Robert Alan Harumer of Akron, O., explains the origin of the phy lacteries, their contents, their sym- bols of learning. The author points out that Tefilin are an expression of God's kingship and God's love. The Hebrew 'text is quoted and translated and an interesting epi- logue incorporates a Saul Teher- nichovsky poem on Tefilin. The pamphlet "The Grace" was authored by Dr. Evelyn Garfiel, a member of the faculty of the Women's Institute of the Jewish Theological Seminary. Explaining the traditional grace after meals, the author commences with a com- ment on "the miracle of bread" in introducing the "Hamotzi." She deals interestingly with the idea and origin of the grace and ex- plains the legal short form of grace after meals and the text. Brazilian Court Told It Can Extradite Stangl BRASILIA (JTA) — The de- mands of Austria and West Ger- many for the extradition of Franz Stangl, wartime commandant of the Treblinka and Sobidor death camps in Poland, are valid under Brazilian law, Attorney General Haroldo Valdao reported to the Brazilian Supreme Court here.

Emanu-E1 of the City of New York from the membership in the central con- gregational body of Reform Juda- ism in the United States and Can- ada. Details of the action were re- leased at a press conference by Irvin Fane, chairman of the UAHC board at the conclusion of the two- day meeting held here. Fane stated that the board mem- bers adopted two resolutions, the first read "that this UAHC Board of Trustees acknowledges with re- gret the resignation of Cong. Emanu-El of the City of New York, and expresses the hope that Emanu-El will find its way back into the family of the union." The other resolution gave a vote of confidence to the union's leadership and its president, Rabbi Maurice N. Eisendrath to speak out as an individual on public isues and "in accordance with the principles of American democracy, prophetic Judaism, and his own conscience, and to speak for the UAHC in accord. ance with resolutions adopted by the UAHC General Assemblies." At its April 25 meeting, the trustees of Cong. Emanu-El adopt- ed a resolution withdrawing their membership from the UAHC. In a statement released to the press on May 5, Emanu-El's presi- dent, Alfred R.
