The two cantors closed the program with a duet, leading the audi- ence in the Yiddish "Par- tisanen Song." Charles Benham, execu- tive director of the Detroit Round Table ofthe National Conference of Christians and Jews, told the Memorial Academy that "we have allowed the memory of the Holocaust to dim. Only in recent years has the signifi- cance of the Holocaust come rushing back to us." He explained the efforts of the Interfaith Committee on the Holocaust, adding, "If we are to say 'never again' to the Holocaust, we must say never again to the crutch of anti-Semitism" Jewry Observes Yom Hashoa NCCJ Elects Alan A.

"Christians are now ask- ing how such a thing (the Holocaust) could happen in a Christian civilization? The answer to that question is helping to spur a new society." Benham asked the Christian representa- tives in the audience to stand and be recognized. They wore yellow Stars of David in commemora- tion of the Danes who protected their Jewish citizens during the Holocaust by wearing the yellow star which the Nazis ordered Jews to wear. Sr. Carol Rittner of Mercy College was presented with a Tribute to the Righteous Gentiles by Dr. John Mames. Sr. Carol said the Chris- tian churches were "marked by the sign of Cain" during the Holocaust. "Am I not my brother's guardian?" she asked. "If more Christians had worn the yellow star Bassett lam" • ,•••• schodfidd Slanhr ■■•■ BMW WORLD •14 TEENS 126 E. 14 MILE RD., CLAWSON - • much of the Holocaust would not have happened." She said society has yet to learn the lessons of the Holocaust "because the Holocaust is now being re- peated in other nations." Rabbi Charles H. Rosenzweig, director of the Holocaust Memorial Center, gave the memo- rial address. "For six years, day and night, hour after hour," he said, "our people suffered from the Holocaust." He also pointed to the guilt of the Christian church ,- for turning a deaf ear. "Love and compassion selectively applied is a re- flection of a deep-seated hatred," lie said. "The Holocaust teaches us what hatred can lead to." Other participants in the program included Dr. Irv- ing Panush of the Jewish Community Council, Rabbi Morton Yolkut of Bnai David, Sol Kleinman and Martin Water of Shaarit Haplaytah, Shari Ferber, Henry Dorfman of the Holocaust Memorial Center and a color guard from Bloch-Rose Post of the Jewish War Veterans. Thousands of persons participated in ceremonies at New York's Temple Emanu-El. Some 250 day school students held burn- ing candes while the audi- ence inside and outside the temple recited Kadish. Speakers included author Elie Wiesel, Rabbi William Berkowitz of the Jewish Na- tional Fund, Israeli Ambas- sador Ephriam Evron and others. In Amsterdam, Queen Juliana attended two cere- monies in memory of the more than 100,000 Dutch Jews who died in the Holocaust. MUSIC? ENTERTAINMENT?'
