he said.
Both Aronson and Green-
berg agree the community's
top priority must be funding
the influx of Soviet Jews into
Detroit and Israel, not the
JPM improvement plans.
"Not only are they coming
here, but a lot of Soviet Jews
are going to Israel. We will
be called upon to foot the bill
for this," Greenberg said.
"When they show up we
better be ready to take care
of them."
Aronson said, "Federation

fter more than 30
years, Congregation
B'nai Moshe can no
longer call the synagogue at
the corner of Ten Mile and
Church roads home.
United Jewish Charities,
the property and endowment
agency for the Jewish Wel-
fare Federation, closed on a
deal Feb. 6 to purchase the
synagogue for $1.6 million.
Federation officials offered
to buy the building in
November after it had been
on the market for a year and
almost sold to a church.
Rob Roth, the synagogue's
past president, said the
congregation must vacate
the building June 30. Offi-
cials are beginning to place
items in storage to prepare
for the move.
"When I drive by knowing
we don't own that building
anymore it is poignant. It's a
bittersweet moment," Roth
said. "It was never our pre-
ference to leave. It was a
natural circumstance."

But what improvements and
when the funds will be
available are uncertain."

However, Starr hopes
some improvements will be
made this spring.

"This center does not need
to be another Maple-Drake,"
Starr said of the JCC's ex-
pansive facility in West
Bloomfield. "It needs to be a
full-service community
center, not just for senior
citizens. You can't serve
families with a single gym, a
single locker room and a
single bathroom." ❑

"When I look back on all of
this, it (the sale of the
building) is the key devel-
opment. We were successful
in keeping the building in
the Jewish community," he
said.
Federation Executive Vice
President Robert Aronson
said the Federation will use
the building for Jewish
community projects.
Both Temple Emanu-El
and Yeshiva Beth Yedudah
have expressed interest in
either renting or purchasing
the synagogue.
"I hope to wrap it up in a
few weeks," Aronson said.
He is waiting for 10 Mile
Road Campus Committee
Chairman Hugh Greenberg
to return to Detroit so the
two men can discuss it fur-
ther.
"Our feeling is one of the
two will be an excellent
benefit to the community,"
Aronson said. "The deciding
factor will not be money. It
will be who will make the
best use of it and who can
close on the deal the
quickest."
