The Rabbinate is demanding the resignation of the famous Viennese opera singer, Herman Yadlowker, who was recently engaged as chief cantor in the Riga synagogue. His resignation is demanded because he asked for an organ accompanist which aroused great indignation among the Jews, especially when at yesterday’s celebration of the eleventh anniversary of Latvia’s independence Yadlowker was accompanied by a church organist.
