RESUME OF YOUNG JUDAEAN CONVENTION
AT CHATTANOOGA
By SIMON WENDER
Addresses by Mrs. A. H. Vixman,
executive director of National Young
Judaea, a complete revision of the
organization’s constitution, and the
establishment of permanent head
quarters in Atlanta were the features
of the twelfth annual convention of
Southern Young Judaea held in Chat
tanooga, Tenn., July 26-29.
Mrs. Vixman, speaking at the open
ing session on Sunday afternoon, on
“Young Judaea—a Challenge and a
Promise,” urged Young Judaeans to
make a thorough study of Jewish life
and carry on in a manner worthy of
the heritage of their predecessors.
“Good Jews,” she said, “are desir
able American citizens and are con
sidered assets in their communities.”
She described the growth of the or
ganization and pictured the work of
the Chassidim in building up Pales
tine.
On Wednesday morning Mrs. Vix
man discussed the workings of Na
tional Young Judaea and its relation
ship with the southern region.
The constitution committee with
Mr. Edward M. Kahn, executive direc
tor of the Jewish Educational Alli
ance of Atlanta, as chairman, made a
complete revision of the constitution.
The outstanding provisions are the
establishment of permanent head
quarters of Southern Young Judaea
in Atlanta and the appointment of an
executive board with authority to ap
point an editorial staff for the South
ern Young Judaean publication. The
committee will make further revisions
around these principles. The entire re
vised constitution will not go into
effect until next year.
The newly elected officers of the
Southern Association are Joseph Cu
ba, Atlanta, president; Nathan Hlass,
Atlanta, Fruma Belle Winer, Chatta

the other by Mrs. A. H. Vixman. Mr.

youth affairs, and showed the value
of the club as a recreational agency.
An informal discussion followed.
