FORM SENIOR COUNCIL
OF DETROIT JUDAEANS
Steps are being taken this week by
the Young Judaea leaders to form a
senior council, to he composed of dele-
gates from the senior Young Judaea
clubs of Detroit. The leaders feel
that the formation of such a council
will in time help make more leaders
from among the Young Judaeans
proper and will also stimulate the
Judaeans to greater efforts for the
movement.
The clubs entitled to representation
in the council include the Defenders
of the White and Blue, the Knights
of Judaea, Tikvas Zion, Forget-Me-
Nots of Zion, Buds of Judaea.
The organization meeting of the
council will take place this Wednes-
day evening at the Jewish Women s
Club, CS Rowena street.

Are your Fall Wraps ready? Get them out and look them over.
Then do the sensible thing—have our driver call for them.
When he returns them to you they'll be fresh, cleaned, carefully
shaped and pressed; any breaks in the lining repaired; loose buttons
tightened and other motherly touches; a good job generally.
You'll find it a paying practice to let us do this work for you
regularly. Our system of cleansing is thorough, but harmless. We
know just the solvent to remove each particular kind of stain,
whether from perspiration, fruit, coffee, grass or any of the many
others.
We have the most up-to-the-minute equipment, both for clean-
ing and pressing; and our charges are so reasonable that you will be
surprised at how little it costs to relieve you fo this important work.
Phone for our representative to call. Early action, before the
season's business is at its height, will enable us to give you extra
good
service.

Palestine Trade Secretar ∎ Sug-
gests Many Immediate Un-
dertakings.
The Secretary for Trade and In-
dustry of the Paleatine Zionist Exec-
utive recently visited Gaza to inquire
into the causes of the dwindling
population and to study the possibili-
ties of the development of a Jewish
industrial center there, and subse-
quently published a report showing
the position of the Jewish commun-
ity and the economic possibilities of
Gaza.
There are three classes of possibili-
ties:
1, Immediate developments which
it is advisable that private people
should engage in.
2. Development which it is not ad-
visable to take up before a thorough
investigation has been made.
3. Finally, the big plans, such as
development of a Jewish suburb of a
fishing harbor, involving marine work
and road work construction and the
building up of an industrial settle.
ment on the banks of the basin form-
ed by the mouth of Wadi Gaza.
Barley and Wheat Town.
The town people own land in the
neighborhood, where the soil is fam-
ous for its fertility. Gaza is princi-
pally a barley and wheat town; there
are also extensive fruit orchards
chiefly apricots and several cucur-
bitaceas gardens, watermelon being
principally cultivated. The tobacco
plant is prominent in the gardens sit-
uated within the town.
Apart from the usual small indus-
tries, the following are worthy of
note: fishnig, weaving and dyeing of
obayas (kind of overcoat worn by
peasants), floor tile making, primi-
tive black pottery making.
As is usual in this country, the
land is concentrated in the hands of
• few effendia who lease it to fallahin
against payment of sine-third of the
crop. These effendis are also the
wholesale grain merchants.
The Jewish community of Gaza
dates back about 40 years. Before
the war practically all the Jewish
residents were Sephardim. During
the war many left the country, some
died, some have settled elsewhere in
the country. Out of the 40 families
of the pre-war period, only one sur-
vivor has just returned. Fifteen fami-
lies have remained in the country,
while four have returned from
abroad. Out of the 40 families, 36
were Sephardim and four were Ash-
kenazim.
The old residents have had a room
which served as synagogue. There
was also a Mikvoh.

brought by local currents to this por-
tion of the coast. The necessity of
building a small fishing harbor near
Gaza is also insisted upon.
There is a deep basin which evi-
dently abounds in fish. The water is
slightly salty. It is fed by the Wadi
Gaza, which originates in springs
situated not far from the railway
line.
The southern bank of the basin is
high, while the northern is low. In
order to transform the sleep basin
into a fishing harbor, perhaps also
into a small commercial harbor to
serve Gaza, it would be necessary to
cut through the tiny isthmus and to
protect the entrance against sand
storm by means of a breakwater.
If a settlement be .developed here,
the low land would be excellent for
the commercial ansl industrial under-
takings, while the residential quarter
could be situated on the high ground.

The Union of Orthodox Rabbis of
the United States has endorsed the
work of the Hebrew Sheltering and
Immigrant Aid Society of America,
(Hies.)
In an appeal signed by Rabbi B. L.
Levinthal, the president, the Union
says that in view of the financial situ-
ation in which the great organization
finds itself, it is the solemn duty of
the entire Jewry of America to come
to its aid.
The appeal says that it would be a
calamity if the European activities of
Hies should cease and there is grave
danger of that by reason of the lack
of funds.
The Rabbis in particular are called
upon to support the request of Hies
that appeals he made in the syna-
gogues on Kol Nidrei Night.
Presidents of synagogues are ask-
ed to comunicate with Ilias, 425-437
Lafayette street, New York, so that
the necessary arrangements can be
made fur these special appeals.
DODGE BROTHERS
ADD BODY PLANT
$1,500,000 Comtruc•ion Project Nee-
•s Demand for Cara
Grows.
Following recent completion of a
vast construction program costing
$8,000,000, Dodge Brothers, Detroit,
have broken ground for another huge
eight-story building requiring an ad-
ditional investment of $1,500,000. In
this new unit, 440,000 feet of floor
space will be provided. It will be
devoted largely to closed body work.
The new principle of all-steel
closed body construction developed
by Dodge Brothers has generated a
rapidly growing demand for this tvne
of body. The new plant will provide
much-needed space for assembly,
enameling and storage of the all-steel
closed bodies. Many large presses
and enormous electrically heated
enameling ovens will he installed and
warehousing space will be provided.
The announcement of proposed in-
crease of manufacturing facilities
comes as a welcome one to Dodge
Brothers dealers throughout the
country, as the demand for cars has
been far in advance of present pro-
duction.
The newconstruction project, on
completion, will increase Dodge
Brothers floor space to • total of 130
acres, and will give employment to
hundreds of additional workmen.
SPECIAL NOTICE
It is expected that every member
