For the past few ye.us there ha\e been many diseussiont. p o and con on tbe matter of broadcasting at the Bryden Road Temple, and nol until last Monday evening did the Boa^-d of the Tem|)le together with its president, Mr Jos.

The maintenance *ft>r a broadcasting progiam as outlined by the Bryden Road group was the big p •obleni which faced the finance com¬ mittee, hut this was solved when a group uf public spirited men of thi.s city contributed most liberally to this caufae, and made broadcasting from the Temple possible^ for the first year at least.

House Committee Adopts Johnson's Deportation Bill—^Ex¬ ecutive Session to Considet Le&slation tor Uniting Separated Families;Senate Committee Adopts Joint Resolution
WASHINGTON.—The House Immi¬ gration Committee, on a motion of Con¬ gressman Dickstein of New York, yes¬ terday decided to begiii consideration of legislation'for uniting separated families of aliens now in thc United States on the 31st of this month, when the commit tee will go into executive session for thi^ purpose.
According to this decision, no public hearings will be held as heretofore, in¬ stead, the committee will forthwith start acting on the proposed legislation itself Congressman Dickstein expressed satis¬ faction with thi>f decision, declaring the question of the separation of families has been thoroughly discussed before and to hold public hearings again would only waste valuable time and thus endanger action before adjournment.
Dickatein Makes Strong Fight
At its meeting yesterday the commit¬ tee also voted to favorably report Con¬ gressman Johnson's deportation bill. Congressman Dickstein made a strong fight against the most objectionable fea¬ tures of the bill, particularly that clause removing the limitation period for dc portation of aliens convicted of any of¬ fense committed after enactment of the bill involving an imprisonment sentence of one year or more. The committee decided to retain this provision and Con¬ gressman Dickstein succeeded only in obtaining a reduction of the limitation period from seven to five years for cer¬ tain deportations on other grounds Congressman Dickstein also attacked th? first mentioned ground for deportation because it would permit deportation for any offense, even a minor pne, where the alien, perhaps because of poverty, could not defend himself and is given a sen¬
tence of one year or more Under thc present law only crimes involving moral turpitude have a limitation period of three years for deportation.
Congressman Dickstein pointed out that the proposed drastic change will eiicouiage the blackmail of innocent aliens and destroy families after they have been in this country for many years. He alao opposed the clause calling for the deportation of persons of "psycho¬ pathic inferiority" which is such a vague clau'^c, he said, that anj one could be deported since thjs phrase has never been satisfactorily defined.
The bill will be formally filed in the House within the next few days Con¬ gressman Dickstein obtained leave to filb a minority report which in all probability will be signed also by Congressmen Sahath, Colder and McGregor.
WASHINGTON (J. T. A.).—The Senate Committee on Immigration or¬ dered a favorable report ou the Senate joint resolution by Senator Copeland, in¬ tended to permit wives and minor chil¬ dren of alien declarants to enter the United  States as nonquota immigrants.
The bill as reported is amended from the original so as to omit husbands. It applies to declarants between July 1, 1021, and July 1, 1924, and children under eighteen. Application must be made within a jear after passage of the act
The committee also ordered a favor¬ able report on a bill introduced by Sena¬ tor Reed, Republican, of Pennsylvania, increasing the salaries of immigrant in¬ spectors, and another bill by Senator Reed intended to amt;nd the law of 1024 so as to make more strict the admission of teachers from foreign countries.

Each of the speakers expressed much gratification over the prospects of the Brotherhood and stated that in the near future the organization will take tbe lead in the building of a new center for Or¬ thodox Judaism in the eastern section of the city.
In his installation address, Rabbi Werne said in part: "Our synagogue represents an ideal.' This ideal Is em¬ bodied in and expressed by the organiza¬ tion in our synagogue. An ideal how¬ ever noble remains valueless to ii com¬ munity unless it finds proper realisa¬ tion. I have implicit faith m the type of character that makes up our Brother¬ hood.
