Unity among all Jewish groups, Zionist and non-Zionist, Orthodox and Reform, was urged last night by Judge Joseph M. Proskauer, president of the American Jewish Committee, in an address at a dinner celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of the Menorah Journal, at the Hotel Commodore.
Jews of various beliefs "must see to it that each will show decent respect for the opinions of other and that all dwell together in unity," Judge Proskauer said. "That unity, to which all may yield allegiance," he added, "rests on common loyalty to our spiritual and cultural heritage." Four hundred persons attended the dinner, which was also addressed by Henry Hurwitz, editor of the magazine.
