SOUTHEASTERN JEWRY ORGANIZES
(Continued from Pape 6)
He advised parents to have the
young share in Temple problems and
to give children a thorough acquaint
ance with their religious traditions.
Dr. Leo M. Franklin, Detroit, past
president of the Central Conference
of American Rabbis, delivered the
principal address of the convention
on the subject, “To Be a Jew”.
Looking Back
“I am thinking of the Jew not quite
comfortable and somewhat out of
place in the midst of this industrial
civilization of ours, his thoughts, his
prayers turned back a thousand
years,” he said. “Yes, if you will,
four thousand years, to the days when
his forbears dared to forevision a
time when man to man would be as
a brother, when nation to nation
would be friends not foes, when the
divinity of every man should be recog
nized.
JULIUS W. FREIBERG
“The Jew of whom I am thinking
is as real as any whom you know.
He represents to me that saving rem
nant through whom alone not merely
Judaism but the ideals and hopes of
humanity can be conserved. His type
is the prophet. Men of this type have
never been popular but they have
kept civilization alive. They have
been called impractical fools and
dreamers but they have saved the
world.”
Mr. Vogelstein Speaks
Ludwig Vogelstein, New York,
Chairman of the Executive Board of
the Union .spoke Monday morning on
“The Union of American Hebrew
Congregations”.
“The Jews are the great miracle
of history,” he declared. “A people
at no time of political importance,
which suffered repeated defeats, which
was driven into exile, persecuted, ha
rassed, massacred and cruelly mal
treated by every nation with which
it came into contact has survived the
conquerors of the world, the most
powerful states that have ever ex
isted.
“Not only have we survived phy
sically but spiritually, too, as our re
ligion has outlived the highest civi
lization of antiquity. The truths pro
claimed by our ancestors have be
come the chief cornerstone of the
present Western civilization which
governs one-half the population of
this planet.
“To maintain and carry on all these
activities,” he continued, in pointing
out the services rendered by the Un
ion, “requires the devoted co-opera
tion of our loyal staff and the unself
ish assistance of many men and
women all over the country, but it
also requires liberal financial sup
port.”
They Are The Grandchildren
At the biennial Union conventions,
present Western civilization which
governs one-half the population of
this planet.
“To maintain and carry on all these
activities,” he continued, in pointing
out the services rendered by the Un-
DR. LEO M. FRANKLIN
he said, “we see the grandchildren of
the men who stood at the cradle of
the Union and we realize that the
‘Zechus Ovos*—the merit of our an
cestors—is the blessing of this gen
eration. •
We have inherited this great edi
fice for the perpetuation of Judaism
in America which the two previous
generations built up laboriously. It
is our sacred duty to maintain and
extend it to satisfy the needs of the
present and future generations.
“There is nothing more helpful to
us in our standing in our communi
ties and in our contact with our fel
low citizens of different faiths than
the high standards of religious life
as promoted by the Union.”
Mrs. Louis Switzer, president, Mis
sissippi Federation of Temple Sister
hoods, Vicksburg, Miss., gave “A
Statement by a Sisterhood Represen
tative”; Edwin Wise, Montgomery,
Ala., “A Statement by a Brotherhood
Representative”; Rabbi Isaac E. Mar-
cuson, Macon, Ga., “Our Educational
Obligation”; Mrs. Israel L. Kaplan,
Jacksonville, Fla., “The Home”; and
Dr. Harry W. Ettelson, Memphis,
Tenn., "The School”.
Bring Greetings
The dinner at the Standard Club in
Atlanta brought greetings from A.
Leo Weil, Pittsburgh, in behalf of the
Union; Mrs. Maurice Steinfeld, St.
Louis, president of the National Fed
eration of Temple Sisterhoods, in be- j
half of the N. F. T. S.; and Charles i
P. Kramer, New York, for the Na
tional Federation of Temple Broth
erhoods.
Delegates were from Alabama,
Florida, Georgia, Carolinas, Missis
sippi and Tennessee.
