The “Hajnt reports that the Rabbinical Union has decided to demand that the government should recognize the Rabbinical Union as the authority on all Jewish questions. Hitherto Adalberg had been the authority on Jewish questions in the Ministry of Education. Since he has recently resigned, the Union now asks that his duties with regard to Jewish matters be turned over to it. The “Hajnt” is opposing this demand because the Agudath Israel controls the Rabbinical Union and would hence be in a position to influence Jewish matters with the government.
