Rabbits Protest
Carols In School

Kingston, N. Y. (JPS) : A pro-
test to the Board of Education by
Rabbi Harold Highlander of Con-
gregation Ahavath Israel, charg-
ing that the Christmas story, and
Christmas carols definitely of a
sectarian character" were being
taught in Kingston school in
violation of rules against religious
training in public schools, opened
a controversy in the Jewish COM
munity here.
Nathan Badian, President of the
board of directors of the con-
gregation, published a letter in a
Kingston newspaper, disavowing
Rabbi Englander's action. Mr..
Badian stated that the Rabbi had
written to the Board of Educa-
ton without the approval of the
congregation and that his OBJ
jections definitely were not the
views of the congregation nor are
they the views of Kingston's
Jewry as a whole" Rabbi Eng
lander's resignation followed and
was accepted by the board Of di-
rectors, but has to be confined by
a general membership meeting.
The Board of Education, mean
while, has appointed a non-sec-
tartan committee to study the
Rabbits charge.

THE JEWISH FRONT:

Negotiations between the Joint
Distribution Committee and the
United Palestine Appeal for the
renewal of a joint drive through
the United Jewish Appeal for the
coming year are now going on
And plenty of bargaining is
being done by both sides The
Zionist, is is understood, demand
a larger share of the funds and
the JDC is definitely opposed to
this Both sides are threat
ening to break the partnership,
but it is logical to assume that,
despite the present friction, the
partnership will continue since
the Federation and Welfare Funds
throughout the country would not
like to see the United Jewish
Appeal liquidated Leaders
OF the Joint Distribution Com
mittee had a very interesting con-
ference in New York with the
delegates of the Latin-American
countries who came to this coun-
try to attend the session of the
World Jewish Congress

THE ZIONIST FRONT:
By BORIS SINCLAIR

Telegraphic Agency, Inc.

THE ZIONIST FRONT:
The Iraqui Premier, who claims
to be the spokesman for the Arabs
of Palestine, is due to arrive soon
in Washington And Prof.
Selig Brodetsky, president of the
Board of Deputies of British Jews
and a member of the executive
of the Jewish Agency for Pales-
tine, is also due in the United
States soon Zionist leaders in
the United States have received
a letter from DR.. Weizmann con-
tanning the gist of his latest talk
with Prime Minister Churchill
The letter is very reassur-
ing There is a good deal
of grumbling among Zionist in
America as to why the House
Foreign Affairs Committee alter
ed the phrase "Jewish Common
wealth" in the Palestine Resolu-
ton Efforts are still being
made to have the word Jewish,
inserted before the word "Com-
monwealth" in the text, which
now reads: "that the Jewish peo-
pie may ultimately reconstitute
Palestine as free and democra-
tic commonwealth" And,
incidentally, Congressman Sol
Bloom, chairman of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee, now
admits that he did not consult
the State Department on whether
it was desirable that his Com
mittee recommend the passage of
the Palestine Resolution to the
Congress Nor did he consult
the State Department on whether
the changes he made in the text
of the resolution should be made
=. The truth of the matter is
that the u. S. Government now
has a clear policy on the Pales-
tine issue, and this policy will not
be made known until Hitler is
defeated An understanding to
this effect is said to exist between
the United States and the British
Government with the knowledge

American Jewish Conference
Opens; Monsky Warns Against
Usurping Functions of Others
By MAXINE BADER

PITTSBURGH, (JTA) = Oppo-
sition to establishment of the
American Jewish Conference as a
permanent organization. (which
shall function, supervise or direct
the activities in areas which are
not the special responsibility of
established, well-recognized and
responsible Jewish organizations"
was voiced this week by Henry
Monsky, president of the B'nai
Birth and co-chairman of the
Interim Committee of the Con-
ference, addressing the organiza-
tons second session, which open
ed at the William Penn Hotel
here.
Mr.. Monsky, who was instru-
mental in the establishment of
the American Jewish Conference
last year, warned the 48O dele
gates, representing 60 organiza-
tons, that an attempt by the
Conference to take over the duties.
of long-term Jewish bodies lis
fraught with grave danger to the
Conference. It threatens to deS-
troy its integrity and solidarity"
he continued. "It disregards GER
tain basic principles and funda-
mental understandings which
must be respected if the Confer
ence is to survive and perform
it's important tasks"
An indication that groups with
in the Conference who favors en-
largement of the scope of its
activities do not plan to force
through a decision to the effect
was seen in the address of DR..
Israel Goldstein, another CO.
chairman of the Interim Com
mittee. Declaring that he shared
the view of those who believe
that nothing related to Jewish
interests should be excluded from
the scope of the Conference, such
as American Jewish affairs, DR..
Goldstein added that since it
is apparent that it cannot be had,
we have no right to force it by
majority rule"
MOnsky LaudS Work on Overseas
Relief and Palestine
Organizations
Outlining his reasons for OPP
posing extension of the Confer
ence's activities. Mr.. Monsky said:
''Does anyone imagine even the
remote probability of this Con-
ference, as presently constituted,
developing the capacity to take
the place and perform the func-
tons of such agencies in Jew
ish life as the Joint Distribution
Committee, the United Palestine
Appeal, the National Refugee Ser
vice, HAS and other overseas
agencies, most of which for a
quarter of century or more have
built up recognized tradition Of
magnificent service to our strick-
en- brethren throughout the world.
These same principles apply to
the defense agencies.
All of these organizations" he
continued, deal with combined
budgets of upwards of so millions
of dollars annually. They have
built up tremendous machinery,
facilities and community support.
