Kosher Beef Supply
Dries Up in Atlanta
by VIDA GOLDGAR
A severe shortage of kosher
beef, even more scarce than non-
kosher, is having its effect in
Atlanta on those whose dietary
habits require it
Both major kosher meat
markets in Atlanta are finding it
impossible to supply their regular
customers. Arthur Strauss of
Arthur's Kosher Meats told The
Southern Israelite he’d sold his
reserve by last week. The little that
his suppliers could ship this week
was gone almost immediately In
the meantime, he says, “we are
managing with poultry, veal" and
lamb It's expensive because the
controls were lifted .but at least
it's available."
Mort Ciilner of Gilner’s Kosher
Market told much the same story.
“We ran out on Wednesday of last
week, got in a little bit but it was
gone by Tuesday of this week."
Gilner explained the shortage in
part this way. “Since the amount
of beef slaughtered for kosher is
the minority, we are the first
affected and hardest hit."
Meanwhile, the “kosher”
housewife is learning to make-do
and do without . . as is her
counterpart in the regular super
market.
One Atlanta woman questioned
hadn’t really felt the pinch yet.
She’s had a fair supply of beef in
her freezer (not last minute hoar

keep plenty on hand.’’) She, like
others, is stretching it with dairy
meals and llsh
Are prices higher? she was asked
"When you buy kosher meat, you
can’t be too fussy about prices It’s
always expensive."
Both Gilner and Strauss agreed
there was little chance of improve
ment until September when the
controls on beef prices are lifted
J ill then, they said, they’ll do the
best they can with what’s
available.
An Atlanta rabbi reportedly has
communicated with Sen Merman
Talmadge, presumably in an effort
to bring to the attention of govern
ment the particularly severe effect
Phase IV has on persons who keep
kosher.
A report in the Jewish Week of
Washington tells of Bernard II
Goldstein, meat-supply executive
who turned down a White House
order for 15 pounds of filet mignon
and New York strip steak because
of the meat shortage. Goldstein’s
firm has supplied meat to the
White House for the past 16 years
but last week for the first time
"refused to honor an order from
the Presidential mansion" offering
ground meat instead. Goldstein
said, “If Mrs. Housewife feels the
meat shortage, so should the
White House.”
It was learned that one
wholesaler was considering
purchasing some steers “on the
hoof to have ritually slaughtered.
This could ease the situation
somewhat for those willing to pay
the price.
Others undoubtedly will display
the same kind of inventive and im
aginative menu planning that has
come to the rescue before during
food crises . whether created by
depression, war, or Wash'ington.
CCAR Group Organizes to Counter
Atlanta Parley'Intermarriage’ Stand
JTA REPORT
A group has been organized
within the Central Conference of
American Rabbis, the Reform
rabbinate, by members protesting
a CCAR 1973 convention resolu
tion, opposing participation by
CCAR members in mixed
marriages. Rabbi David M.
Eichhorn, chairman of the new
group, Concerned Members of the
Conference, said members are
determined “to resist every
attempt to restrict the spiritual
freedom of American liberal
Jews." He said a letter had been
sent to all CCAR members asking
for support. Delegates to the 94th
CCAR convention in Atlanta
voted, 321-196, on June 19 for op
position to officiating in mixed
marriage but also approved an
amendment upholding the
CCAR’s long-standing position
that each CCAR member had the
right to act in such matters in ac
cordance with his interpretation of
Jewish tradition.
The opposition group’s letter
sent to all members noted that a
survey had shown that a least 40
percent of CCAR members of
ficiated at mixed marriages and
that “a considerable number" who
do not officiate at such marriages
recently signed a statement calling
on the CCAR “to refrain from
curtailing the right of every
member of the CCAR to
decide this matter for himself "
Accordingly, the letter asserted,
"it is very likely that the vote at the
Atlanta convention was not an ac
curate reflection of the real senti
ment of the entire Conference
membership." The letter added
that on the day after the vote, "a
large number of conferees, per
turbed about the possible adverse
effect that this blow to the
traditional religious autonomy of
the Reform rabbi may have on the
future of the Conference," met in
Atlanta and decided to organize
themselves into a group to be
known as Concerned Members of
the Conference. Membership in
the group will be open only to
members of the CCAR
A five-member administrative
committee prepared a statement
which declared that the /CCAR
had departed from its function
“only as a deliberative body” and
had now started “to legislate in the
realm of rabbinic religious prac
tice.” The statement called the
June 19 vote “not responsive to
the realities of contemporary
Jewish life and the problems of our
young people."
The statement also said “our
rabbinic task is to strengthen
Jewish identity to make modern
Judaism sufficiently flexible and
meaningful to earn the allegiance
and to enrich the life of every
Jew," and that, in maintaining that
position, members of the opposi
tion group felt they would have
“the support of the majority of
liberal American Jewish laymen
who, like ourselves, are deeply
concerned about the future of their
children and the survival of our
people and our faith."
The statement said that "to ac
complish our determination to
maintain the spiritual freedom of
both th^ American Reform rabbi
and American Reform Judaism,"
the new group would prepare and
distribute literature on the issue,
organize a speakers bureau and
convene seminars to study in depth
the problems of mixed marriage
and other matters, including “the
issue of authoritarianism in
Judaism."
Israel Lightens
Military Time
For Immigrants
TEL. AVIV. (JTA) — The army
has decided to shorten military ser
vice for immigrants. According to
the Army Broadcasting Station,
the manpower division of the Arm
ed Forces has decided that im
migrants aged 20 and older will
serve 18 months if single, nine
months if married, or three
months if they have children. New
comers who served 18 months in a
foreign army will be called up for
90 days in the Israeli army Im
migrants who are going to school
will be able to defer their induction
date. Regular service in the Israeli
army will be 33 months beginning
April 1974 instead of 36 months.
A Yarmulke For
Every Occasion
WASHINGTON — If you’re
the kind of worshipper who always
dips into the synagogue's supply as
you enter the sanctuary, it’s
probably black.
But a yarmulke doesn’t have to
be somber, says Stanley Wiener,
executive director of Adas Israel
Congregation, the capital’s
best-known Conservative syn
agogue. Wiener has yarmiilkes in
all hues, like rose, tangerine, silver
and gold
In fact, for Sabbath services, he
coordinates his yarmulke with his
shirt color.
Wiener has been a yarmulke
collector for the past eight years,
finding them as far away as
Afghanistan, Iran and Bukhara in
the Soviet Union, and as near as
New York's East Side. Some of his
prized ones are elaborately em
broidered with metallic thread.
A Yemenite yarmulke of in
tricate silver-thread embroidery,
bought during a visit to Israel, was
the start of Wiener’s collection.
He’s partial to yarmulkes from
Islamic countries which, unlike
American make types, have high,
stiff sides that rise as much as four
inches above the head, instead of
molding to the skull. Generally
handmade, they are skillfully em
broidered with images of flowers
and geometric designs.
Wiener finds that yarmulkes, in
their design and ornamentation,
are an expression of Jewish folk
art. One yarmulke in the B’nai
B'rith exhibit was made to resem
ble a Hassid’s headgear — a
"streimel" — and is edged with
mink. Another is of Egyptian
cloth, with hieroglyphic symbols.
In a London synagogue, Wiener
discovered yarmulkes made of
grey pin-striped wool that matched
the formal garb of the
worshippers A more flamboyant
Iraqi creation rises to a peak and
has grape clusters worked out in
silver thread.
The Wiener collection includes
one from a U.S. official stationed
in Kenya who turned to traditional
tribesmen’s cotton hats to provide
yarmulkes for his son’s bar mitz-
vah. There are also colorful hats
worn by the Druse, a Moslem sect,
which Israeli youths use as yar
mulkes to their liking.
The yarmulke in his collection
Just Received!
most popular with American
youths, Wiener reports, is made of
— naturally — denim. Created for
a vice president of Levi Strauss &
Co it has the familiar trademark
tag sewn into a seam and bears a
rivet at the top.
Most American yarmulkes are
manufactured in New York,
skullcap style. But colors are far
removed from basic black. One
New York manufacturer has bolts
of cloth in every color of the rain
bow “To match the decor of the
room or the color of the bride’s
gown at a wedding," explains
Wiener
