Many thousand Jewish (Yiddish) newspapers are
circulated in Detroit every day, and the responsiveness of
this reader-public is indicated by their generous adver-
tising patronage.
None of these papers, however, is printed in Detroit.
They are from New York or Chicago presses. The largest
circulation is that of the Jewish Daily Forward, which
prints a Detroit edition in Chicago and sends it by express
to Detroit for distribution.
This newspaper, which prints an aggregate of close to
300,000 copies daily, is an organ of the Socialist Party. It
is edited by the distinguished Abr. Cahan, and has proven
an eloquent and practical argument for socialism, being
in every respect a commercial success, though edited and
published for the benefit of its public.
A layman may get some idea of the influence wielded
by the Jewish Daily Forward by reflecting that it has a cir-
culation larger than that of the New York Telegram. The
Cincinnati Enquirer, or The Detroit Free Press.
The Detroit edition is edited and managed by Joseph
Bernstein, who has always shown a fine public spirit, co-
operating in the furtherance of all recognized social, phil-
anthropic, and communal efforts.
The Day (Der Tag) and the Jewish Morning Journal
likewise have a considerable circulation in Detroit, and
help to keep the Jewish public informed in matters of com-
munal or general interest.

Our Best Wishes Are With You for the Ensuing
Year-5687.

WARSAW-1J. T. A.1—A revival

ing the economic existence of many
Jewish manufacturers and workers,
is predicted here as a result of large
orders received in the textile centers.
Textile manufacturers of Lodz have
received large orders from China,
India and Persia. Experts state that
a general revival of the industry, in.
eluding that in Bialystock, is not dis-
tant.

At this time of year it is customary to recall the vari-
ous forces that have been at work, affecting the life of our
people.
Tribute will be paid to the temple and the synagogue

ice and philanthropic groups. Who will consider the Jew-
ish Press and its potent influence?

that, like the heart or lungs in an individual, it is taken
for granted until something goes wrong.
First of all. as an integral part of our Jewish cornmu
nity life, there is The Detroit Jewish Chronicle.
In a city that grows with the rapidity of Detroit, there
is always a sizable group of people who have but recently
arrived. In fact, it is almost safe to say that the Jewish
population of Detroit has doubled during the past 12 years
—period which, I believe, marks the life of The Detroit
Jewish Chronicle.
This was not, however, the first Jewish weekly publi-
cation in Detroit. It had been preceded by the Jewish-
American—a journal that, happily or unhappily, retired
long before "hyphenated Americans" came into disrepute.
.9
The Jewish-American was the social arbiter of its day,
and if memory serves correctly, was a product of the edi-
torial pen of the late Sol M. Goldsmith. I believe Dr. Leo M.
Franklin also had a connection with this newspaper during \ -
the early years of his occupancy of the pulpit of Temple
Beth El, as did Jacob Langer.
Following the permanent suspension of the Jewish-
American, the local community was deprived of an English.
organ for a period of perhaps 10 years during which time
many abortive efforts were made, looking to the establish-
ment of a sound, responsible, helpful publication.'
The leaders of the Detroit Jewish community, espe-
cially Dr. Leo M. Franklin, realized the need of a Jewish
weekly newspaper, printed in English, but they hesitated
to give sanction to any that could not give guarantee of a
sound, sincere editorial and business policy.
It remained for Anton-Kaufman, now of Newark, N.
J., to secure the support which made possible the establish-
ment of The Detroit Jewish Chronicle.
Schooled in old world journalism—Mr. Kaufman had
served his apprenticeship on the Berliner Togeblatt—he,
nevertheless, sensed the need that existed in a newspaper
sense, and proceeded to satisfy it. In this effort he was as-
sisted by Samuel J. Rhodes, a successful practicing attor-
ney of Detroit and by Nathan J. Gould, the present pub-
lisher of the Wisconsin Jewish Chronicle.
It was a difficult task. Jewish factionalism, always
alert, found in the struggling publication an inviting object
of attack. Now one, now another, each of the various
groups and sub-groups, aided by insistent individuals,
sought to intimidate and harass the publisher of his paper.
All such efforts failed and with a fine oneness of purpose
the editor continued to serve his public without fear or
favor.
This policy has since been steadfastly pursued.
After firmly founding his paper, Mr. KaufMan turned
his efforts into new fields, and The Detroit Jewish Chronicle
was purchased by a syndicate.
Under the new management, The Detroit Jewish
Chronicle rapidly .established itself as the outstanding
7
Jewish newspaper, printed in English, in America. A com-
parison with the many journals of similar character, as
they come to this writer's desk, indicates an editorial and
typographical supremacy that is beyond question.
But The Detroit Jewish Chronicle is more than an at-
tractive, readable newspaper. It is a forum for the expres-
sion of individual opinion—a newspaper giving, concisely
or in detail, accounts of Jewish happenings of world, na-
tional, or local interest—a communal organ that has been
ever ready to assist in the furtherance of worthy Jewish
projects of a non-controversial nature.
One need only think of the void that would exist were
there no Detroit Jewish Chronicle awaiting one on Satur-
day morning, to appreciate its value.

Other Publications.

That Detroit Jews are alive to the importance of the
Jewish national press is indicated by the frequency with
which various Jewish magazines are seen on the library
tables of our local Jewish homes. Notable among these
publications, most of which are of a high editorial and typo-
graphical character are The American Hebrew, The New
Palestine. The Menorah Journal, The B'nai B'rith News
and the Jewish Tribune—the latter edited by the distin-
guished man of letters. Herman Bernstein.
Jews of Detroit are deeply interested in the activities
of their people everywhere, and this interest is reflected in
the enthusiasm and eagerness with which they turn to the
J•ish press for information.
