The Central Conference of American Rabbis has announced its official affiliation with the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, as a step to unify Jewish life in America and strengthen the cooperative efforts of Jewish organizations in this country. The Conference of Presidents includes 18 civic, religious and Zionist groups.
In announcing the affiliation, Rabbi Leon I. Feuer, Toledo, president of the Central Conference of American Rabbis, called for “an end to the duplication” of Jewish life in America. He claimed that “the general public at the present time gets a totally confused picture of the character of American Jewry. If we are to effectively meet the problems confronting us domestically and internationally, America’s Jews must learn once and for all to unite,” he said.
