The full executive board of the Central Conference of American Rabbis met here and fixed June 24 for the 1931 conference but failed to decide definitely on the place other than that it will be in the Middle West. Madison, Wis., Mackinac Isl-and, Mich., Cambridge Springs, Pa., were mentioned. The place was left to Rabbi David Lefkowitz, president and the secretary and treasurer.
Committes for the year were named, the regular subventions to literary, publishing and other organizations voted. Lucius Littauer of New York sent his usual gift of $5,000 for the subvention fund. A page in the forthcoming conference year book will be dedicated to a memorial honoring the late Louis Marshall.
Representatives named to the World Body for Progressive Judaism included Rabbis Lefkowitz, David Philipson. Morris Newfield, Edward N. Calisch and I. E. Marcuson, conference secretary. A study of group insurance for rabbis was reported on partially by a committee which was instructed to continue its work.
