Mail Campaign Asks 1,500
More Detroiters to
Join.

A city-wide campaign for 1,500
members was launched by the Jew-
ish Old Folks' Home.
J. Levin, president, in a state-
ment concerning this drive, said
that the decision not to hold the
customary annual dance has de-
creased the income, and it has be-
come necessary to appeal for a
fund to be raised through member-
ship fees.
The membership drive is being
conducted through a mail appeal.
The first two days following the
mailing of the membership appli-
cation cards brought a response of
$1,000, and a hearty response is
expected from the community at

from $6, $10 and $25 a year to

the smelter of the Men's Club of
Temple Beth El at g p. m. Tuesday,
May 22, at the Temple. Mr. Jos-
eph has taken for the subject of
his address the title of his syndi-
cated column, "Random Thoughts."
Mr. Joseph for 25 years ser-
ved an editor of the Jewish Criter-
ion of Pittsburgh, and during the
pest 15 years wrote his column
which is now used by Jewish week-
lies in 20 large American cities.
The Detroit Jewish Chronicle was
one of the first Jewish periodicals
to publish Mr. Joseph's column.
Writes Feature far Dailies.
Mr. Joseph also writes a "Ran-
dom Thoughts" feature for the De-
troit Sunday Times, Pittsburgh
Sun Telegraph, Baltimore Ameri-
can, Newark (N. J.) Star Eagle,
and other dailies.
This columnist also has other
"hobbies." He is publicity direc-
tor of the Frank & Seder depart
ment store in Pittsburgh. Occa-
sionally he finds time to lecture
and to take an active interest in
communal causes.
Fought Ford, the Klan.
Mr. Joseph was recently ap-
proached by the general manager
of an important daily to contribute
a short daily feature to his paper.
After thinking it over, Mr. Joseph
said: "Well, I have just one idle
hour and perhaps I could do that
job for you. That hour is from
3 to 4 o'clock in the morning,
when I don't sleep very well."
Mr. Joseph was one of Henry
Ford's bitterest antagonists dur-
ing the seven years' attacks upon
the Jews by the Detroit automo-
bile manufacturer. He also fought
the Klan and did not let an op-
portunity go by without attacking
the forces of intoleraece.
