position of depending upon calami-
ty for success.
They expect to nominate the
same candidate as in 1852, and the
candidate is already campaigning.
However, the candidate does not
seem to have gained in voting
strength in the last three years and
is now under the handicap of hold
ing no official position from which
he can speak with authority or
some measure of responsibility. He
is, to be sure, the "titular leader"
of his party but is not as yet ac-
cepted as its real leader, which
depressing fact he has found out
on his recent quiet visits to Wash
ington. He is not, his intimates say,
complaining but he is disappointed.
On the other hand, Democratic
congressional leaders say he has
no reason to think that he must
now make party policies or plat
form. What they mean when they
tell him they are for him, say these
leaders, is that they are for him as
of now"
Functioning as the "titular lead
er" he may make a blunder as
easily as anyone else constantly
making speeches. Also, if the
present prosperity continues an
other year and Mr. Eisenhower
runs again there would hardly be
a chance to beat him. Considering
these things it is not too surprising
that Democratic leaders, willing as
they are to join in his renomina-
ton, should not want to turn the
party over to him now The reason,
of course, is their basic belief that
with a prosperous country at peace
no one can beat Mr.. Eisenhower
That makes it easy to understand
their willingness to renominate Mr.
Stevenson. Also, it accounts for
their determination to hold the
making of Democratic policies in
their hands, secure in the convic-
ton that if nominated Mr. Steven
son will accept those policies as
his own.

AT CIVIC PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION
Mrs. Rennie Will Wear
Three Hats This Year

Of executive secretary to the
Illinois Welfare Board. Later
she came to Washington with
the ONCE of Defense Mobili-
zation and, at the present time,
is on leave as head of the
Women's Division of the Eisen-
hover Foundation in Kansas
City, Mo.
Goal of Tour
The mother of four grown
children-a daughter and three
sons who served in the Pacific
during World War II-Mrs.
Rennie is mainly interested in
the European tour because of
the chance it will give women
of many lands to become
acquainted with each other.
Her philosophy is summed
up in her statement in the
official brochure on the tour.
Never in the history of the
federation" she wrote in part,
"has so appropriate an oppor-
tunity been afforded the Amer
lean clubwoman to find out for
herself what the women of
Europe are thinking and doing
that there may never again be
hloodshed."

Dues Increase
Proposed for
Federation

A proposed boost in per
capita dues from Is to so
cents is expected to set of
a lively debate at 6he annual
convention of the General
Federation of Women'S Clubs
opening tomorrow night in
Philadelphia.
Opponents protest that the
increase recommended by the
Executive Committee more
than doubles the amount each
member of a federated club
now pays into the General
Federation treasury.
Advocates point out, how
ever, that so cents annually
means only s cents a month.
Mrs. Theodore s. Chapman.
CIVIC president, considers the
additional funds essential If
the federation is to continue
its present services and extend
its program materials to areas
such as health and public edu-
cation.
Highlight of the convention
will be an address by Adlai
Stevenson Tuesday night. Sec
rotary of Labor Mitchell will
speak on the closing program
Friday and the following day
$50 delegates will start flying
to Europe for an international
session in Geneva and a
month-long European tour.

BY FRANCES LIDE

Undoubtedly the busiest
woman in all of Philadelphia
this week will be Mrs. Irma
w. Rennie, who will be wear
ing three hats, so to speak. at
the annual meeting OF the
General Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs.
For months Mrs. Rennie
has been doubling in brass as
convention chairman and di-
rector Of the CIVIC tour OF
Europe which is to follow the
five-day Philadelphia session.
As a sort of sideline-
though it would be a full
time job for most people-she
also is in charge Of the ST.
booth homemakers' exhibit to
be set UP this week on the
18th floor of the Bellevue
Stratford, convention head
quarters hotel.
Biggest job Of the three, Of
course, has been preparation
for the federation's first over
seas meeting-in Geneva, May
30-June (which is being
combined, in a sort Of $l.195
all-expense package, with the
month long post convention
tour.
Final reservations far ex-
ceeded original expectations.
1--WE started out with 100 plane
seats set aside for the trip"
Mrs. Rennie said. "Then we
asked for $50 and soon made
1t ZOO"
$50 Reservations
BY the April / deadline the
total had reached 350-which
means that Mrs. Rennie will
have $50 women in tow for a
tour which will cover many
points of interest in five coun-
tries.
In addition, SO have signed
up for an extension tour to
Scandinavia and Is for an
extension trip to the Holy
Land.
Only $50 of the $50 will take
the full European tour as
planned. The 200 deviations
in the schedule were worked
out before Mrs. Rennie left
CIVIC headquarters here last
Thursday.
Everyone now has her
itinerary down on paper"
Mrs. Rennie reported early
last week. $50 in Philadel-
phia, I can devote my time
to the exhibit and my duties
as convention chairman.
Working out the tour has
involved a correspondence of
more than 5000 letters. Just
to be sure that all the details
were in order, Mrs. Rennie
went to Europe in February
to confirm reservations for
rooms. buses, planes, lunch
cons, banquets and the like.
This was just her second
trip to Europe, her only pre-
vious visit to the Continent
and England having been a
two-month stay in 1858.
Efficiency Well Known
But Mrs. Rennie's reputa-
ton for efficiency is such that
no one has been surprised at
the ease with which she has
arranged what promises to be
o record-h r eaking event.
Never in the history of COM
mercial airline travel, it is
said. has so large group
travelled to the same destina-
ton within 48 hours on a
regular fare basis.)
Mrs. Theodore S. Chapman,
general federation president,
who was a junior clubwoman
when she first met Mrs. Rem
ME, is one of her greatest
admirers. when the General
Federation met in Chicago
while I was president of the
Illinois Federation, she was the
convention chairman" Mrs.
Chapman recalled. $50 when
we started planning our inter-
national convention I was sure
no one could do a better job as
chairman than Mrs. Rennie.'
Mrs. Rennie also is a for

ident and, on completion Of
her term, was offered the post

form Judaism. he replied:
Reform Judaism is that form
OF Judaism which believes in
adapting the forms, customs, ira
ditions and even some of the
theological aspects of our religion
to the time. condition and place
in which we find ourselves"
A reform Jew. for instance, can
eat pork. His wife is not breaking
the Jewish Sabbath if she cooks
on that day.
A reform Jew can worship in
the synagog without wearing his
hat. Men and women sit together
in the synagog.
AT worship in reform synagogs
the language is both Hebrew and
English. Traditional observances
have been revised.
In Rabbi Eisendrath's opinion,
however, the greatest accomplish
ment of reform Judaism is in the
field of education.
Reform Judaism. for instance.
adapted Jewish education to the
American scene. The Jewish heri-
tage is now transmitted to JewisI,
children through about 500 reli-
sious or temple schools.
The union is also the patron
body of the Hebrew Union Col
lege-Jewish institute of religion.
Rabbits, teachers and cantors are
trained in this college which has
an enrolment Of 125 students.
The union owns one camp al

dozen others.
Rabbi Eisendrath said: 81 don't
believe religion is solely for in
dividual salvation. It also has a
role to play in society.
Reform Judaism. for instance,
has been active in such social
problems as juvenile delinquency.

What is the explanation of this
remarkable growth?
Is il because of the influence
Of q dynamic leader? Or is it the
appeal of a religion adapted TO
modern times?
The answer is because of both.
The growth has come about
under the ivewire leadership Of
Chicago-born DR.. Maurice N.
Eisendrath. who is So and looks
about IS.
He took over IL years ago as
president of the Union of Ameri-
can Hebrew Congregations, the
national organization for reform
Judaism in America.
His admirers. who are legion.
give him credit for much of what
has happened in the postwar
years.
But at the same time they agree
with his own explanation which
modestly leaves him out of it.
This is what Rabbi Eisendrath
told me as we sat down to talk
In the beautiful national head
quarters Of UAEIC on Fifth Ave-
nue. overlooking Central Park:
IA great many men and women
in the armed forces came out of
Jewish homes where they liter
ally could not understand the
religion that was practiced in
them"
But they were exposed during
the war years TO reform Jewish
chaplains who conducted prayers
in a language they could under
stand.
And they learned about reli-
gion that dealt with their prob
lens in a more liberal, modern
concept.
