Poultry Dealers Bow
To Rabbinical Edict
New York (WNS) — Confronted
with heavy losses because Orthodox
Jews are observing the rabbinical
ban on all poultry not bearing the
label of the Kashruth Association,
more than half of the 132 poultry
markets in New York have bowed
to the rabbinical ultimatum and
signed agreements With the Associ
ation pledging themeselves to ac
cept rabbinical supervision of kash
ruth and to place the special labels
of the Association on all kosher
slaughtered,! poultry. Widespread
picketing of recalcitrant markets
by Orthodox Jews, rabbinical stu
dents and Chassidim is reported to
be forcing the market men into
line.
While the Orthodox rabbis and
the Kashruth Association feel that
the rabbinical ban is having the
desired effect and confidently ex
pect that the entire poultry indus
try will have to grant the rabbis’
demands under the pressure of the
religious ban, a number of unfore
seen complications have developed.
In the first place the schochtim’s
union has instructed its members
to continue to slaughter in defiance
of the rabbis. Individual schochtlm
are Ignoring the union but by and
large the schohctim are slaughter
ing as usual. City officials have
warned the schochtlm not to defy
the rabbis. In the Bronx, market
men who are inclined to deal with
the Kashruth Association are pre
vented from doing so because the
Bronx Kosher Butchers Association
refuses to accept poultry tagged
with the label of the Kashruth As
sociation. The butchers feel that
the tagging policy opens the way to
racketeering. In support of this
contention there are reports that
a group of rabbis is already defy
ing the Association and planning
to set up Its own system of tagging.
Certain Brooklyn rabbis are report
ed to be coercing butchers into us
ing their tags instead of those of
the Association. Meanwhile, Leroy
Paterson, regional poultry code su
pervisor, indicated that If the dead
lock between the rabbis and market
men lasts much longer the Agricul
tural Adjustment Administration
may be forced to intervene in be
half of the market men.
