A fellowship of faith, with a local rabbi and an outstanding Jewish layman among its officers, has been organized for participation in the parliament of religions at the Morrison hotel in Chicago from August 27 to Sept. 17.
Rabbi Joseph L. Baron of Temple Emanu-El B’ne Jeshurun has been named vice-chairman and Circuit Judge Charles L. Aarons was appointed an honorary vice-president. The religious parliament, it was explained, is to “unite the inspiration of all faiths upon the solution of man’s present problems.”
