Yielding to the insistent de-
mands and importunities of his
neighbors and many friends, Sol
Berman, the well-known Jewish
clothier and business man, has
finally announced his candidacy
for Alderman of the Third Ward.
Mr. Berman's name is one
which is familiar to the members
of the Jewish community of De-
troit. A life-long resident of the
Third Ward, which incidentally
possesses the second largest num-
ber of Jewish voters of any ward
in the city„ lie has long been ac-
tively identified with every move-
ment tending to uplift and purify
local politics. his high moral
JEWISH FAMILY DRIVEN
ACROSS GLOBE BY WAR.
The Sufferings of Albert Ben-
rouby, Turkish Jew, and His
Wife and Children. From
Salonika to Buenos Ayres,
South America, and
Finally to New
York.
The ship Vestris, plying between
Buenos Ayres and New York,
brought to this port, among its pas-
sengers, the family of Albert Ben-
rouby, a native of Turkey. The
European war is distinctly respon-
sible for the sufferings and wander-
ings of this Jewish family. A drug-
gist by profession, Benrouby lived
happily in Salonika with his wife,
Marie, a graduate midwife, and
their three children, two sons, stu-
dents, and a seven year old
courage and firmness of cnnVIC
tion were demonstrated last fall
when he resigned from member-
ship in the I )etroit Board of Com-
merce because that organizati ■ fn
undertook to indorse the D. U. I:.

question to a vote of its members.
His unqualified success as a mer-
chant and business man is a trib-

daughter. All speak several lan-
guages fluently and are highly
cultured and educated.
When the war broke out ken-
rouby lost his fortune, and he and
his family were compelled to leave
Salonika. They settled in Italy,
and when that country joined the
war, they went through the same
experience and migrated to Buenos
Ayres. Ihienos Ayres, however,
did not prove to be the promised
land, as the economic crisis caused
by the war was felt in that southern
land, It was impossible for the
father and bread winner to find
employment.
In the effort to support the family
Mrs. Ren•ouby endeavored to prac-
tice her profession in a provincial
town named Alberty. The popu-
lation of this town consists entirely
of Italians. This Jewish family
