More than 350 leaders of American Reform Judaism tonight paid tribute to Louis Broido, prominent civic and religious leader, as Liberal Judaism’s “Man of the Year” at a dinner in the Waldorf-Astoria.
The dinner marked the inauguration of the 1954 Combined Campaign of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations and the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, the national institutions of American Liberal Judaism. The Combined Campaign is seeking to raise $2,195,000 nationally, including $548,000 in the metropolitan area, to provide the annual maintenance needs of these institutions.
