Detroit (JTA)—Tlie 140-niember Reform congregation of the Birmingham Temple in suburban Detroit came to the defense this WPPU of its rabbi who has proclaimed himself from the pulpit to be an atheist. Rabbi Sherman T. Wine has also challenged a number of traditional Jewish positions in bis sermons. No issue of revoking his ordination for alleged heresy ha.s been raised because R e f o r m Judaism has no such procedures. The congregation is not affiliated with the U n i o n of American Hebrew Congregations or any other Jewish religious grouping. At a recent "godless" Chanukah Sabbath s e r v i c e , Rabbi Wine, who is 3B, declared that Judah Maccabee was not as great a figure as he is portrayed in Jewish history. He said it was "absurd" to believe that "all G r e e k s were adulterers and murderers and all Jews were good." He also said that the premise that there would be no morality in the world if it were not for the Jewish Christian tradion "is for the birds." He also expressed the belief that the Hellenist, or Greek, Jews of the Maccabean period were "the Reform Jews of their day." Mrs. Suzanne Velick, Temple secretary, issued the congregation's statement in support of Rabbi Wine which asserted that all religions have concerned themselves with the problem of human destiny and have tried to help man vinderstand and control his future. To solve this problem, the statement said, "man needs to know the truth about himself and the world in which he lives. He can best do this through use of the common sense or empirical method." "Commonsensical people ihvite every idea to be tested by the evidence of human experience," the congregation statement continued. "If the idea passes this test, it is worthy of belief. We at Birmingham Temple are committed to the use of this empirical method in the discovery of essential truth. Like the men of science, our minds are open. There is no belief we are unwilling to alter if the evidence proves us wrong." The statement emphasized that the congregations "will also use all customs and ceremonies that can effectively symbolize the values we hold sacred. We want to preserve whatever in Judaism is both rational and humanistic," it declared.
Arthur H. Guldblcin, President of the Jewish Federation of Omaha, has announced the Federation's grateful acceptance of the gift of an man-made lake for Camp Esther K. Newman. A gift of Henry A. Newman, the lake will be known as the JKNNIK n NEWMAN LAKE, in memory of Mr. Newman's late wife II is expected that the lake will be completed prior to the ISIi.") camping season Mrs Newman was an active member of the Jewish commun-

The December 18 issue of the Jewish Press carried a story of a meeting of Omaha Parents to discuss Bar-Bas Mitzvah parties. While no policy decisions were made, there was a general agreement that the Bar Mitz-' vah parties were too sophisticated and should be curtailed both in type and in number. This story was picked up by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency and released on their world wide hews wire service.

Schools Closed In Philadelphia On High Holidays Philadelphia (JTA)—All public schools in Philadelphia and the Board of Education administrative offices will be closed next year on September 27 and 28, the Jewish New Year, and October 6, the Day of Atonement, the Board has decided. The action means that J e w i s h employes of the School District of Philadelphia will no longer suffer a deduction in pay for remaining out on the Holy Days. New York and other major cities with large" Jewish populations passed similar resolutions in prior years closing schools for the High Holy Days.

If many Jews don't know jvliy lliey should remain Jews, and if we have failed in giving them a basis lor being Jews by choice, what's to be done? My children go to (he Omaha Hebrew Academy.

Now, the Hebrew Academy issues no guarantee that my children will remain Jews or marry Jews, but I am confident that if they do, it will be their own choice. They will have learned a great deal of Jewish culture and will have a foundation of Jewish knowledge and experience upon which to base whatever critical decisions they will have to make as Jews and as human beings.

1NTKK1 AITII DATING It was interesting to note that below the Teen Talk column on interfaith dating was an article where Iiabbis blame parents and tin- home for interfaith dating. I am a parent of teenagers and I disagree with the article. Jewish girls I think do not want to date non-Jewish boys. But when they see the Jewish boys (latin;.; non-Jewish girls and they sit home, it can get very depressing. I am opposed to interfaith dating. I was brought up this way and I brought up my children feeling this way. But when the Jewish boys let the Jewish girls sit home week-end alter week-end and date gentile girls I BLAME THE BOYS FOR THE P R O B L E M AND NOT THE PARENTS OF THE GIRLS. Out^ol sheer loneliness Jewish girls are forced into interfaith dating. There are a lot of unhappy Jewish parents fighting this, but the only .solution in my estimation is for Jewish boys to give the Jewish pr!s a chnnco and start dating them. I don't want to sign my name because as the teenagers would say—'Tin chicken.1' Hclieve me 'though, these are the feelings of a Worried Mother

Nazi Party Resumes Activity in Chile Santiago. Chile fJTA) — The tiny Chilean Nazi party, which was dissolved at the beginning of 3 !)(i4 under Government orders, appeared to be a c t i v e again. Under the name of the National Soealist W o r k e r s Party, the party was reorganized by Franz-Pfeiffer-Richter, who headed the banned organi/alion. He said the party had been legally constituted again. The reorganized Nazi group has been publishing a leaflet every two weeks bearing the name Cruz ft a in a d a, which mians 'Crooked Cross.'' n reference to the Nazi swastikas origin. The reappearance of the Nazi party was assailed by La Segunda of Santiago, one of Chile's leading evening newspapers w h i c h asserted that Nazism "can not take root in Chile." The newspaper recalled that many years ago when German Nazism was.in full power and opened branches for youth in Chile, it had failed.

Life in these camps is not unpleasant other than the.constant anxiety of waiting for the release. The children receive extensive Hebrew training so. that they will fit into the Israel education system. Those leaving the country legally are permitted lo take with them a maximum of 20 pounds of material possessions including clothes, lamily heirlooms, religious objects etc. And so this family of 5, after many long years of waiting and hoping were about to rcalizo their dream—a new-life'.in Israel. All they had was the few material possessions they wero permitted to take with them, but compared to the many still waiting for release, these people were aware of and grateful for their good fortune.
