Rabbi Jacob Nieto, for the last 37 years rabbi of the Shearith Israel Congregation, has been chosen rabbi emeritus by his congregation. He will get his full salary all of next year and an annuity for life. At the special program arranged to confer the appointment on the venerable rabbi, a resolution was read saying that the honor was conferred upon him “as recognition of true and faithful service.” Rabbi Nieto is president of the Board of Jewish Ministers of Northern California.
