Eleven members of a kosher butchers code authority, seven of them from Greater New York, were appointed yesterday at a conference of representatives of 10,000 kosher butchers from every part of the United States, who gathered in the Hotel Pennsylvania.
The New Yorkers, who were chosen by the Federation of Kosher Butchers of Greater New York, are Charles Cohen, president of the Federation; Emil Horn, Oscar Spitalnick, Isidore Molmud, Morris Harris, Abraham Avreen and Isidore Batkin.
Others elected to the code authority yesterday are Hyman Schulman of Boston, David Goldberg of New Jersey, Isidore Ascann of Baltimore and David Solomon of Philadelphia.
The newly-appointed authority will meet at the Hotel Pennsylvania this morning to draw up plans for administration of the code.
In February the code administration will sponsor a convention which several hundred butchers are expected to attend, and which will feature an exhibition of the entire process of kosher meat ###andling and retailing.
