It was reported further that attendance had shown a 25 per cent increase during 1932 particularly as concerns cultural features. Samuel I. Kessler is president of the Association and Rabbi A. G.

The Jewish Community Council here today decided to sever its relations with the Union of Schochtim because the latter refused to permit the Council to allot a certain percentage of its income for the maintenance of Jewish educational institutions.
The Council ordered its Executive Committee to engage new Schochtim and to find means to subsidize the educational institutions.
Local communal leaders see in the subsidy of the Community Council the only solution for the acute financial situation of the Talmud Torahs which have been closed for months by a teachers’ strike as a protest against the non-payment of salaries.
