ducted by The Jewish News,
Wayne State University and the
Jewish Community Council
show that community members
in large numbers still are choos-
ing to live near each other, work
together and even shop in the
same grocery stores.
According to the survey, the
perception that Jews are "co-
cooning" still exists today even
though Jews as a group have
the social and economic means
to live anywhere they want.
"It is not surprising at all that
Jews have a sense of Jewish
community and a commitment
to Jewish life," Dr. Schoem said.
"But they also want to be mix-

For community planners, the

identifiably Jewish, yet as a
partner at the Honigman Miller
Schwartz and Cohn law firm,
his community involvement ex-
tends beyond Jewish Federation
circles.
"There are some segments of
our Jewish society who feel they
don't want to integrate more
than they have to," Mr. Page
said. 'This is legitimate if this is
how they want to live their lives.
But it is equally legitimate to
say that Jewish heritage is im-
portant to perpetuate, but not if
it means failing to integrate
with the rest of the world.
"Jews can be part of the
broader society without losing
ethnicity and religiosity," he
said.
Among those members who
have become prominent in the
larger community are industri-
alist Max Fisher, one of Detroit's
most influential Jewish leaders.
In addition to his continuous
support of Jewish charities, Mr.
Fisher has remained a close
friend and adviser to Republican
U.S. presidents throughout the
past four decades — Dwight
Eisenhower, Richard Nixon,

ing for the ever increasing ag-
ing community and dealing with
rising intermarriage rates —
have come more clearly into fo-
cus.
"I have worked here for eight
years," said Federation Plan-
ning Director Larry Ziffer. "The
sensitivity to the Jewish con-
tent issue is significantly differ-
ent today.
"This is not an either/or
proposition," Mr. Ziffer said.
`Me trustees of the Jewish com-
munity are always struggling- to
decide where priorities are and
where dollars should be spent."
As an observer who lives in
Oak Park, Mr. Ziffer wonders
how any community can reach
the people who choose to live in
far-away suburbs.
But he is optimistic that the
organized Jewish community al-
ways will do its best. The com-
munity, Mr. Ziffer said, certainly
can preserve its Jewish heritage
and strive to become more inte-
grated.
"We can do both," Mr. Ziffer
said. "The question is how do we
decide how to allocate resources
for both. We can not live in a
