Convention.of American Reforni Rabbis Warns Against "Theocratic Tendencies" in Israel BRETTON WOODS. N. H., (JTA) — The inclusion of Jeru¬ salem within the boundaries of Israel wa.s asked by the Central Conference of American Rabbis in a resolution adopted this week following tiie report of its Comml.ssion on Justice and Peace to its to Its 60th anniversary convention. The Reform rabbis urged that "Jerusalern should he incorpofat- ed with the boundaries of Israel wher^ it bfeiongs by virtue of history and population." They ' rejected the suggestion of some that Jerusalem be international¬ ized and epressed confidence that under an Israeli adminis¬ tration the "Holy Places will en- joypeace and security.' The 'conference also went on record.in opposition to "Federal or state aid to educational Insti- ¦ tutions maintained Ijy religious groups, Jewish or Christian." The action was taken following tile report of its CommitCSe ort Churcii and state, headed by Dr. Joseph L. Fink of Buffalo. Dr. ,/fFlnk said that the problem of separation of church and stiite "is growing in vehemence .as Well as in interest. There ai'e signs tliat the people of America are becoming increasingly aware of the far-reaching implications of the Issue." The report ex¬ pressed "atJsOlute devotion to the principle of religious free¬ dom in America and an un- breachable wall of separation between church and state." In the annual conference lec¬ ture. Rabbi Abram M. Granison of Newt York, a.ssistant te the president of the Jewish Institute of Religion, attacked both the National Conference of Christ¬ ians and Jewfs and the Council of Judaism, declaring that Jew¬ ish support of both of (hem Is an evidence of Jewish group In ferlorlty complex. 'Rabbi Granl son said "that Jewish dignity should demand "something more from the good will movement than th? make-bejieye brother hood, at which Jews rub elbows with Christians at round-tables under the auspices of the nation¬ al conference of several Christ¬ ians and a few Jew.s—just to some sweet, sweet nothings in the form of pious and Inocuous platitudes." In the. annual conference ser¬ mon, delivered by Dr. Bernhard J. Bamberger of New Ygrk, (t was pointed out that Judaism is more, than "a valuable phase of Jewish national culture, thatjt has a prophetic message of the universal good to all mankind." Rabbinical Assembly Opposes Priority for Israel; Stresses SpirituafNeeds of Jewry KIAMESHA LAKE, N. Y., (JTA) — In a resolution adopted at the concluding se.s.slon of the 49th annual, convention of the Rabbi¬ nical Assembly of America here last week, unanimous endorse¬ ment was given to,current efforts to support Jewish life in Israel. The resolution added, however, that "the needs of our own com¬ munity must not be tabled at this crucial moment." The resolution said: "VJg can¬ not approve of giving that pj-iori- ty to one Jewish need which would give a sacohdary place to the religious and cultural up¬ building of American Jydalsm." The Assembly warned Jews In this country that they,risk "ir¬ reparable damage to our survival as a community unless they-pro¬ vide a fuller measure of support for religious and cultural institu¬ tions." It's Not Too Late To Do Your Share in tj^JF^rive J^R the United Jewish I-'und campaign enters into its final stage for lO-iD, the news of the Bank of America's S15-mil!ion loan to* Israel Is Indeed most significant and heartening. It marks the first large private ioan to the Infant State of Israel and indicates tliat the country's progre.ss and prestige as a nation have won recognition, and that the world's foremost bankers have accepted Lsrae! as a good Investment. finish the job URtlerTaken two months ago by loeal leaders. He pointed out that many per.sons will soon be leaving for vaca-- tlons, imd that It Is of -utmost importance that they make their contributions before leaving the city. y.i it Is interesting to note that the Junior Division of the Unit¬ ed Jewish Fund again demon- strate<l a realization of its re- sponsihlllties to the UJF; and has made substantial contribu¬ tions to date. Reports coming, in from many boys and girls of thiit Division indicate a most successful effort on their part forahe drive now in progress. .N'ews reports from Israel re¬ veal that fiO.OOtr-refugees are living on bare ground; .20.000 without even '11 tent over tiieir heads. We dare not let their homecoming turn from a tri¬ umph Into a tragedy. This mom-' ont In the history ot Israel calls not for tears, not for lives to be lost, but for MONEY—money to lie rUrned into- hou.se.s, clothes, ¦ fdod ami medicine. If you have nol jis yet made, your pledge lo the Uniled Jew¬ ish Fund, do so now! Help make this year the year of fulfillment —a homecoming which is lo be the liegirining of a new and crea¬ tive life for many thousands of our brethren. It also is an indication of their desire to help the country deve¬ lop Itself to the fullest extent of its polentiaillles, and to per¬ form tbe humanitarian mi.ssion to which it.s founders are dedi¬ cated. The loan is of direct impor¬ tance to those contributing to the United .Jewish Fund drive and to similar campaigns in other communities throughout the country. In Columbus, as elsewherfe, Jewish men and women have been called upon to contribute toward tbe resettlement of the vast number of wai" refugees, now iJouring into Israel al tbe startling rate of 1,0()0 per day.
