Detroit's Jewish cultural activ-
ities, if the circulation of books is
a criterion, have gained a few
points in the past year. Judging
by the figures that are being quoted
by Miss Ruth Cowgill, chief of the
foreign division of the Detroit Pub-
lic Library, continued gains are to
be expected during the cooling
year.
Miss Cowgill has prepared a re-
port on the progress of her depart-
ment, and the result is a very in-
teresting one. In the first place,
10,800 books in Yiddish were cir-
culated by the library last year.
Secondly, Yiddish ranks fourth
among the foreign language circu-
lations, and because French, which
ranks third, is said to have such a
large circulation for academic and
school purposes, Yiddish is placed
in third place by library authori-
ties. All told the library has 20,-
000 books in 26 foreign languages,
and a circulation of 100,000 is reg-
istered for the past year.
