RABBI S. H. GOLDENSON
IS PRINCIPAL SPEAKER
Another epoch in the history of
Congregation Beth El and in the his-
tory of American Judaism was mark-
ed Tuesday afternoon, October 4, in
the laying of the cornerstone of the
new Temple Beth El, at Woodward
and Gladstone avenues.
Four months ago, on June 17, un-
der blazing skies Emanuel Wodic,
venerable Warden of Congregation
Beth El, turned the first sod of the
new Temple in the presence of hun-
dreds, beginning a new era for prog-
ressive Judaism in Detroit.
Tuesday the same hundreds, brav-
ing the chilling winds of Autumn,
crowded the large tent erected for
the ceremonies and struggled for foot-
hold among the bricks and atones of
the new edifice.
A letter from President Harding
expressing his good wishes and con-
gratulations upon the occasion of the
laying of the cornerstone received by
Rabbi Leo M. Franklin was read by
him while the audience stood with un-
covered heads,

"My Dear Rabbi Franklin:
"Having the most pleasant recollec
tins of my meeting with you at the
time of the Central Conference of
American Rabbis last spring, I am
writing this note to congratulate you
and your congregation on the occasion
of the corner-stone laying of the new
house of worship of Temple Beth El.
The occasion seems to be an appro-
priate one for a recognition of the
great contribution of our Jewish pop-
ulation to the advancement of our
common country. The Jew in Ameri-
ca has not only been a particularly
industrious and useful citizen, but has
demonstrated an unswerving national
loyalty and patriotism. The race has
given us a fine example of the broad
charity and generous tolerance 'oat
must be the invariable aim of our
people.
Comprising as our citizenship does,
representatives of so many races and
creeds, it is obvious that only by the
exercise of such an attitude can we
hope to establish a truly national con-
ception of citizenship and its duties.
Very sincerely,
WARREN G. HARDING.
On a flag-draped platform were
seated Rabbi Samuel II. Goldenson of
Pittsburgh, the principal speaker,
Rabbi Leo M. Franklin, Rabbi Henry
J. Berkowitz, Isaac Goldberg, Presi-
dent of the Temple, Emanuel Wodic
and Samuel Ileavenrich, pioneer mem-
ber of the congregation.
H
ich Places Stone.
Mr. Ileavenrich placed the stone.
In it were laid the Service flag of
the congregation, with 205 blue stars
and four gold ones, various legal
papers, a G. A. R. button won by
Flmanuel Wodic of the 10th United
States Infantry who served in the
Army from November, 1056, to No-
vember, 1864, the Anniversary num-
ber of the Detroit Jewish Chronicle
commemorating the twentieth anni-
versary celebration of Rabbi Frank-
lin, copies of the Chronicle des-
cribing the turning of the sod of the
present Temple and other incident
activities of the Congregation, coins
of the present day and other papers
and documents. Slips bearing the
names of all those who witnessed the
laying of the cornerstone were also
placed with the others. Adolph
Freund, another old member assisted
in the rite and read the list of the
articles that were to be placed with
the stone. Rabbi Berkowitz, Assist-
ant Rabbi of the Temple, gave the
opening prayer.
In his introductory address, Presi-
dent Goldberg expressed the belief
that the new Temple, which is to be
built at the cost of approximately ■
quarter of a million, will be completed
within a year. Plana for the new
Temple were drawn by Albert Kahn
who will personally supervise the
building of the structure. Mr. Kahn
was also the architect of the present
Temple.
"Monument to Faith."
"We are about to lay the corner-
stone of what will be the finest house
of worship in the State of Michigan,
and perhaps one of the finest in the
United States," Mr. Goldberg de-
clared. "It is a monument to our
faith and to the growing sense of res-
ponsibility that we have in the
knowledge that our religion should
have every opportunity for its proper
dissemination.

TO HELP HIAS DRIVE
NEW YORK—Dr. Abram Simon
of the Hebrew Congregation of Wash-
ington, D. C. and member of the Ex-
ecutive Board of the Central Confer-
ence of American Rabbis, is in full
sympathy with the work of Hies and
heartily endorses its campaign for
the One Million Dollar Emergency
Fund. Recently a representative of
the Society called upon him in Wash-
ington and Dr. Simon gave him the
following letter:
"In welcoming you to our city, I
do so because of my knowledge of you
and of the worth of the Hebrew Shel-
tering and Immigrant Aid Society of
America. This society is doing •
blessed work for our suffering breth-
ren. All local problems are very small
when compared with this great tra-
gedy of wandering Israel. I wish you
good luck."
