A. LITTMAN
Majestic Theater in honor of Abra-
ham Littman, manag,er of the com-
pany and the man who is mainly re-
sponsible for the last three consecu-
tive Yiddish Theater seasons in De-
troit.
Three years ago Mr. Littman
brought his first Yiddish troupe to the
Circle Theater on Ilastings street,
where it successfully performed for
40 weeks, a period that marked a
milestone in the history of Yiddish
drama in this city.
Last April, realizing that the vi-
cinity of the Circle was no longer
suited for a Jewish theater, Mr. Litt-
man sold the lease of that house and
undertook to build a new Yiddish
!theater on Twelfth street and Sew-
ard avenue as a permanent home for
the Yiddish drama in Detroit, and
meantime leased the Majestic theater
until the completion of the new
house, which, owing to unavoidable
circumstances, will probably not ma-
terialize before the end of the sea-
son.
For the time being, the Littman
Stock Company is giving regular
week-end performances and occa-
sional performances on Wednesday
evenings.
The farce-comedy, "With the Pow-
er of the Dybbuk," a parody on An-
sky's famous play, "The Dybbuk,"
written by two Yiddish newspaper-
men and humorous story writers, M.
Kipnis and B. Yoashson, will be pro-
duced on Feb. Ifi. "With the Power
of the Dybbuk" had a run of more
than six months in Warsaw (capital
of Poland), where Ansky's "Dybbuk"
was produced for the first time on
any stage by the original Vilna
Troupe. In addition to this play, in
three acts, a musical divertisement of
Russian ballads, Ukrainian folk-sons
and opera arias will be given by Mary
Korolova, Vera Zaslaysky and Betty
SimonofT, three members of the Litt-
man company, respectively.
Lewis and Minnie Birnbaum and
Mischa Fischson, the leading trio of
the Majestic, are endeavoring to
make this testimonial evening in
honor of Mr. Littman an unforget-
able event for the Yiddish Theater
public in the annals of its existence
in Detroit.

In other words, PERCENTAGE of annual gain
is not conclusive. The NUMBER of cars sold
is the true test.
That Dodge Brothers sales in 1926 showed an
increase of 27.6% over 1925 is not the MAJOR
