זיי שטאמען פון דעם רב מטעם, ווייט פון קנאים
When Rabbi Weinberger died suddenly in 1925, there was a serious disagreement as to who will replace him. This conflict became so serious that
the government had to interfere by appointing a lawyer, Roter, from Bratislava to run the congregation. The turmoil did not quiet down even after Rabbi Hillel Weinberger was appointed as chief Rabbi.
Those who did not agree with the choice quit the congregation in 1927 and organized themselves as a separate congregation, Adat Israel. The dayan Rabbi Asher Anshel Katz was chosen as their Rabbi and a separate synagogue was built. Since then there were two yeshivas, each run by one of the Rabbis. In 1929 they built a Beth Midrash, a Talmud Torah and an elementary Jewish school.
