"EDUCATION SALVATION
OF JEW"—FRANKLIN

The United Jewish Emergency Fund is not merely
an effort to raise $150,000. It is to be a test of the com-
munity's self-respect. Will you live only for your-
selves? Or will you meet your obligations to those less
fortunate.
I dislike to appeal to men's sympathy, because 1
have yet to meet a man who does not possess that qual-
ity. I prefer to appeal to their sense of justice, their
sense of duty.
The word "charity" does not exist in the Hebrew
language. "Zedakah" means justice. The passion for
justice has been the "leit-motif" of Jewish life from the
beginning.
"Am I my brother's keeper?" This has been the
cry of the ages and has always been answered by the
Jew in the affirmative.
Is there any Jew in Detroit who would answer it
otherwise?

Couzena Analyzes
Purposes of Drive

I have analyzed in co-opera-
tion with the directors of the
campaign the purpose of the
United Jewish Emergency Fund
and the desirability of securing
the quota. I recognize that the
activities to be taken care of
through this fund do not nor-
mally come under the Commun-
ity Fund and for that reason I
heartily endorse the campaign
and wish you every success in
obtaining the goal.
