en- as rabbis was proposed last
night by the president of the
Central Conference of American
IRabbis, a reform Jewish group
DR.. Barnett r. Brickner OF
Cleveland advocated the move
in the presidential address at
the opening of the 66th annual
convention here.
The convention will vote
Thursday whether to put DR.
Brickner's proposal to a years
study.
DR.. Brickner. asking that q
study committee look into the
suggestion and report at next
years convention, said women
had a special spiritual and
emotional fitness to be rabbis. >
They should not be denied the
right of ordination, he added.
Does 1t not accord with oul
Liberalism" he asked.
He cited the scarcity of rab-
bis in reform temples.
DR.. Brickner's stand was given
immediate support by Rabbi
Maurice N Eisendradh, president
Iof the Union of American He
brew Congregations, who is at
tending the sessions with more
than 400 reform rabbis.
The convention continues

tered Bridges.
Mr.. Gillard produced a tran
script of Bridges testimony al
his 1899 deportation hearing
when Bridges freely described
and defined a Communist Party
fraction, but said his knowledge
came from asking party mem
bers about it.
Neither Bridges nor his at
torneys appeared discomfittec
by the former testimony about
Association with Communists
Bridges contends he merely used
Communist connections to fur
ther the fortunes of waterfront
unions at a period when they
were weak and needed help.
i This point was touched on al
length in a pre-trial deposition
by Bridges and entered yester-
day as a Government exhibit.
In answer to Mr.. Gillard's
questions then the labor leader
freely admitted conferences with
such Communist Party leaders
as William Schneiderman, Wal

A jump from $50 to $54 in the
maximum weekly benefit pay
Iments made here to the jobless
will be considered by the Senate
District Committee at a meeting
scheduled for tomorrow at 3 pm.
Such a change in the District
unemployment compensation in
surance law will be recommended
by members of the Welfare sub
committee headed by Senator
Mcnamara, Democrat, of Mich
igan.
The amendatory bill is said to
be in line with recommendations
of President Eisenhower for
liberalization Of the District law
so it would be a model for the
States.
1t is backed by labor spokes-
men and opposed by employer
groups. On May 13 Commis-
sioner Samuel Spencer sent to
the Senate committee a report
opposing key features Of the bill
Including the proposed boost in
maximum payments. He said an
increase in maximum benefits
from $40 to $50 had gone into
effect only last January ! and 1t
was too soon to check the re-
suits.
The bill does not specify $54
a week for the new maximum. It
eliminates the present ceiling OF
$50 and substitutes formula.
Under this the eligible unem-
ployed person would receive as
a maximum 1928 of his earnings
in the quarter of the year in
which his earnings were the
highest: or 81 per cent Of the
average weekly earnings Of all
covered employees in the District
whichever is the lesser.

According to the Defense Of

by Philip Swain, a former OSI
employe and a retired editor Of

Mr.. Honaman and the Army
did not agree as to whose idea
1t was to use the form.
Mr.. Honaman said that the
form was discussed at a meet
ing of the OSI and that the
Army had asked for copies SO
they could try it out.
Another Version
An Army information officer,
however, told this story: Mr..
Honaman asked Maj. Gen. Gil.

nation chief, If he would try
them out among his officers to
see what value the forms might
have. Gen. Mudgett agreed and
then asked the Commerce De-

Mr.. Honaman said that if the
forms proved of value in the
Army tests they would be recon-
to the other services.

said in its covering letter:
