Two Measures on Chief Rabbinate
Passed On to Knesset Committee
JERUSALEM (JTA)—The Knes-
set voted to pass on to committee
two bills dealing wiith the chief
rabbinate.
One measure provides a six-
month extension of the expired
terms of the present chief rabbis,
enabling the incumbents to carry
on until Jan. 31, 1972.
The second deals with elections
of chief rabbis.
By a 36-12 vote with 10 absten-
tions, the Knesset rejected a pri•
vate member's bill aimed at insti-
tuting civil marriage in Israel.
The bill, introduced by Meir Avi-
zohar of the State List, was sup-
ported by his faction, by the Lib-
erals and several members of
Mapam.
It was opposed by the Labor
alignment, the religious parties,
the Free Center and Gahal, which
assured its defeat.
According to Knesset observ-
ers, a great many MKs who
voted against the bill did• so
reluctantly and only because of
party discipline.
The four-hour debate over send-
ing the bills on the chief rabbinate
to committee was low-keyed but
bitter. Sharp criticism was leyeled
against the rabbinate and the
government over their handling

the issue and also against the

quo in Israel. The bills were op-
posed by the State . List, Haolam

PROPOSED DETROIT MONUMENT TO SIX MILLION
AT WORKMEN'S CIRCLE CEMETERY
A monument to memorialize the
martyrdom of the Six Million vic-
_ill be erected at
tims of Nazism w
the Workmen's Circle Cemetery,
it was announced this week.
The monument will be part of
a memorial park at the cemetery
and will provide facilities for
tribute to the martyrs and for rec-
ognition of the heroism of those
who resisted the Nazi scourge.
'Construction of the monument
will begin soon and ground break-
ing for the memorial park will
take place at the beginning of
.3eptember.
In order to make it an impres-
sive communitywide function, an
invitation has peen extended by
Frank Newberg, chairman of the

mittee which represents the six

troit, and Herman Scheinbach,
chairman of the Monument for the
Six Million Martyrs Committee, to
all interested to share in the
memorial park and monument
project.
With a cost of more than $20,000
involved in the undertaking, con-
tributions are being welcomed by
the committee and can be sent
to Workmen's Circle, 18340 W.
Seven Mile.
Scheinbach explained that the
monument will have as a back-
ground six trees as a tribute to
the resistance.
The accompanying sketch for
the monument shows the six-angled
structure, one showing a triangle
which was a symbol of the con-
centration camps.
One of the structural corners
will have a Yellow Star to indicate
the emblem which was intended
as a mark of shame for Jews but
which has been worn proudly as
a mark of Honor by those who
defied the Nazi murderers.
The chimney obviously depicts
one of the sad recollections of the
sufferings, the tortures and the
mass murders.
"We have plenty of ground on
our cemetery to provide space
for the memorial park," Schein-
bach said. "There will be opportu-
nities to see the demonstration of
loyalty by our community to the
memory of the martyred and to
keep memories alive of the de-
struction so that we can all labor
together to prevent recurrence of
Nazism and to be alerted to the
struggle for freedom."
The 450 members of Workmen's
Circle in Detroit are cooperating
in this effort and hope for the
community's participation in the
memorial's construction, • Newberg
said.
Made-in--Japan Label
May Go on Kosher Food
TOKYO (JTA) — Certain food
products prepared in Japan may
soon be certified as kosher and
exported to the United States,
Israel and other countries.
Japan itself has approximately
500 Jewish residents, of whom
about 100 live in Kobe and the
rest in Tokyo.
Rabbi Yehuda Bukspan of Los
Angeles, who is in charge of ac-
tivities on the West Coast for the
kashrut section of the Union of
Orthodox Jewish Congregations,
was in Tokyo recently examining
a variety of products. He was ac-
companied by Dr. Phillip Isaacs
of Israel.
Rabbi Bukspan told the JTA
that he has examined cheeses
being produced by a large Japa-
nese company using a micro-
bial rennet which it claims does
not contain any animal matter.
Some vegetable products also
were examined, he added. Cer-
tification of the cheese and vege-
table items as kosher has not
yet been granted, he stressed.
However, he said, sugar-type
flavorings without animal ingred-
ients have just bi:en certified as
kosher. In addition, a producer
of sake, a Japanese wine, is in-
terested in obtaining kosher cer-
tification.
Rabbi Bukspan indicated that an
announcement on the Japanese
products would be made after he
presents his findings to the UOI-IC
leadership.
SCience always departs from life
and returns to it by a detour.

Temple Kol Ami
At the last convention, the
outgoing president, Rabbi Ro-
land B. Gittelsohn of Boston,
had sought the adoption of a
stand calling for the total prohi-
bition against Reform rabbis
officiating at marriages between
Jew and non-Jew, where no con-
version has taken place.
After animated debate and a
close vote, the recommendation of
the President's message committee
was adopted, calling for an open
discussion at the next convention
in June 1972.

To Our Neighbors
We the members of Temple Kol Ami are pleased and proud
to announce that we are now land owners in the West Bloom-
field area.
We would like to take this opportunity to tell you who we
are and what we stand for. Our Temple was founded in 1966
by seven families, and although we are still a young and strug--
gling congregation we are 120 families strong. On this point
of size let us pause. Our by laws clearly state that we mai
have no more than 300 families. Temple Kol Ami very strongly
feels that particularly today in an age of too rapidly diminishing
personal identity, that our Temple always retain the member-
to-member and Rabbi-to-member identification and commdni-
cation that we now enjoy.
As stated we are now land owne r s. In the very near
future we will start to plan for the building of Temple Kol Ami
on our site. Here also it is the avowed policy of Temple Koh Ami
that we are concerned structurally with an ADEQUATE *facility.
We build our Monuments with Social Act*, try to . , instill in
our children a true understanding of Judd'ith6thru 4,-,,xtucv of
Torah, a practice of Talmud, and with a moral omm
to our Fellow Man. We hope our monuments will be thos,
spirit, not of bricks and mortar.
A word about our Rabbi. Rabbi Ernst Conrad is in the
truest biblical sense a scholar and a teacher. A religious teacher,
moral teacher, ethics teacher and more to us as congregants
.. . he is quite simply . . . our friend..
Temple Kol Ami enjoys a good mix of young marrieds
with no children, couples with' children of all ages, and those
whose children are grown with families ol their own. All temples
have these types of members. Temple Kol Ami wants, needs,
desires, and gets the daring and exuberance of youth, the
steadfastness and dedication of those with children and the
wisdom and experience of our older congregants. We all .
at all ages, are not just members we are participants.
Temple Kol Ami is a liberal Reform Temple. Social action
is at the heart of Judaism and therefore Temple Kol Ami is
proud of its record. Like Avis, we're trying harder.
Do not ue misled into thinking we are a grim group.
Nothing could be further from the truth. From the pulpit to the
pews, to our many parties, joy and laughter abound. This
summer for example we will have 3
parties.
Non-members
who
may wish to know more about us are welcome.
