Reform Rabbis Assail Catering
Places for Religious Occasions
CINCINNATI (JTA) — The
use of catering places, public
halls and vacation resorts for im
portant religious occasions by
“unsynagogue-minded Jews” was
assailed by the Central Confer
ence of American Rabbis which
concluded its convention here.
The 500 delegates to the 76th an
nual convention of the CCAR
elected Rabbi Jacob J. Weinstein
of Chicago as president to suc
ceed Rabbi Leon Feuer of Tol
edo.
A report embodying the crit
icism of use of such facilities was
approved by the delegates. The
report charged that such use un
dermined the sancity of the syn
agogue in the process of “salving
the conscience” of “peripheral
Jews.” The rabbis hit hardest at
the resort hotels “which offer va
cation opportunities during the
High Holy Days and other fes
tival periods” along with “religi
ous services.”
On the occasions, the rabbis
charged, the setting and mood
were more ‘in tune’ with ‘holiday’
than ‘Holy Day’ and the accom
panying religious service was “at
best artiflicial and at worst a
mockery.”
Use of public halls and cater
ing establishments for Jewish
weddings and Bar Mitzvahs was
similarly condemned. The rab
bis said that such settings were
“not conducive to the solemnity
of the ceremony” and that this
demeaned the rabbi into a pos
ition “of a hired functionary, one
of the staff.” The rabbi also con
tended that the “traditions” ob
served in such settings were oft
en “the invention of the entre
preneur or caterer” far from the
meaning of Judaism.
The report also criticized the
“mushroom synagogue,” a “pri
vate enterprise” organized sole
ly for the High Holy Days and
“organized primarily for profit,”
to the detriment of the syna
gogues as ‘the basic institution of
Jewish religious life.”

Everyone knows that Hitler is
dead.
Everyone knows that Hitler
never came to
the United
States.
Alas, my friends,
Hitler is in a
sense alive, and
he’s right here
'in our beloved
country.
Where?
In our immi
gration laws,
that’s where. If you would care
fully examine the regulations
governing who may come into
this country of ours and who may
not, you will ultimately come
across Hitler and what he rep
resented.
It was he who said that some
people are better than others be
cause of their blood.
Our immigration laws say that
too. The same phony anthropol
ogy which produced Hitler pro
duced our laws.
Hitler said that some people
were innately superior to others;
so do our statutes of immigra
tion.
Hitler said that blood is a
criterion of worthiness. Our im
migration law says that too.
There are details of that law
which say, for example, that
folks from the Orient can enter
the United States only if they
have some white blood in them.
When I was an Army chaplain
in the Philippines I learned that
some Filipinos were more elig
ible than others for entrance into
our medinah. Which were more
eligible according to our laws?
Those who could prove that their
blood had been rendered super
ior by a white ancestor. In that
kind of legislation the grim
visage of Hitler is all too dis
cernible.
Now President Johnson has
proposed a change in our immi
gration laws. But so far little has
been done about it. In this res
pect the Congress is moving with
gelatinous pace.
I’m sure that if the Congress
men heard that Hitler was found
in this country, they would be
alarmed into action. Well, Hitler
ism is lurking in those immigra
tion rules and our legislators

ought to get moving on the
change.
Of course, nf you and I, aware
of this monstrous inequity, sit
back and do nothing, then we are
collaborators with evil. •
So, let’s get out a post card or
a piece of writing paper. And
let’s write a letter to our rep
resentatives. Let’s write the let
ter in our own words. Let’s re
mind them that our country is
contaminated. Let’s tell them that
the bright prestige of our nation
as a haven for the oppressed is
tarnished. Let’s ask them to
speed up the process whereby the
Statue of Liberty may again hold
up her head with pride.
Let’s scour our nation clean of
moral obloquy. Let’s get off the
Hitler parade.
