A Station-to-Station call is one made to a certain telephone
rather than to some person in particular.
If you do not know the number of the distant telephone, give the
operator the name and address and specify that you will talk with
"anyone" who answers at the called telephone.
A Person-to-Person call, because more work is involved, costs
more than a Station-to-Station call. The rate on a Person-to-
Person call is the same at all hours.

Some Rosh Hashonah Reflections.
By DR. LEO M. FRANKLIN
May the year 5689 come as a messenger of
good tidings to the House of Israel! Despite the
signs of indifference on the part of many to the
traditions and the ideals of Judaism, those who are
clearly-visioned as well as objective in their judg-
ments, know that there is no cause for despair.
On the contrary we venture to believe that to the
vast majority of our people Judaism is as vital as
it has ever been. Forms change. ritual observances
pass away, but the spirit of Judaism remains un-
shaken.
The past year has been a notable one in the
story of our people. Sonia incidents that have
marked the year have been regrettable. but these
have been overshadowed by achievements definite-
ly constructive in character. The practical estab-
lishment of the Jewish Agencw will certainly serve
to weld into closer unity the various elements in
world Jewry who are interested in the rehabilita-
tion of Palestine. The World Union of Progressive
Judaism, which held its second biennial meeting
in Berlin only a few weeks ago, has laid down a
program for co-operation among the Liberal Jews
of all countries that cannot fail to have a marked
influence upon the Jewish life both of Europe and
America. In our own country signs are not want-
ing that Judaism is virile and vital. Millions of
dollars have been invested during the past year
in the construction of new Jewish synagogues, com-
munity houses and schools. While the mere rearing
of noble edifices may monument our people's pride
rather than their enthusiasm, it is fair to believe
that men will not invest vast sums of money in
causes in which they have not a sincere and deep-
rooted interest.
It is to he hoped that in our own growing com-
munity there will be an - increasing spirit of co-
operation among all groups of Jews. We have
many problems in common, we Jews, whether we
belong to the Orthodox or the Liberal group,
whether we are Zionists or non-Zionists, and in
these issues that belong to all of us should work
together loyally and harmoniously. The New
Year comes to us as a time of opportunity. Will
we have the courage and the conscience to meas-
ure opportunity in the terms of obligation, and so
to live and work together as to win equally the
approval of our own consciences and the commenda-
tion of all good men?

niEVentorr,
I appreciate the great privilege of joining The
Detroit Jewish Chronicle in washing the people of
Michigan the greatest blessings upon this occasion
of the New Year upon the Jewish calendar. While
it is a rich holiday belonging primarily to Jewry,
yet we are all Americans. Our hopes and destinies
inseverably inter-mingle, There are common loyal-
ties in all our citizens, regardles of racial or
religious roots. Except as we are one people, in a
national unity which defies breach, we are not the
great democracy which the fathers founded; we
desert the ideals which have been as a giant beacon
to light the world. It is in this spirit that I greet
the readers of The Detroit Jewish Chronicle upon
this significant occasion. We humble humans can-
not take inventory of our short-comings too often;
we cannot too often address ourselves to new and
cleaner resolves for a better, brighter future. New
Years affords an invitation to this reckoning and
this dedication. We live in a matchless Nation
and in one of its superlative States. May all of us
be worthy of this rare inheritance! Being worthy,
may we enjoy without interruption the grace of a
common God, approached by each of us according
to his heart. and may we continue to merit both
spiritual and material prosperity!

of Jews' life in this country. It

one particular question, namely,
that of Jewish migration.
It is an old story this tale of

we do not grasp the full signifi-

giving a monetary contribution. I,
by no means, minimize the value
of these gifts, but we cannot con-
tent ourselves merely by giving It

the problem, that alone will not

must realize that we are dealing

The problem of Jewish migra-
tion is not one of charity. Our
work during the past year has
strengthened us in that belief
more than ever. Jews have been

from the older and well established
immigration countries. It is by no
means sufficient that the ;Jewish
wanderer who follows this new
trek has the means of transpor-
tation, his steamship tickets and
railroad fares paid by himself or
by his relatives. It was necessary
to ascertain whether these new
countries were suitable for him.
Such conditions had to be created
that the migrant should not be-

"THE SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND
STATE IS A FUNDAMENTAL
AMERICAN PRINCIPLE."
By HON. ALFRED EMANUEL SMITH
Following my annual custom as governor, I
desire with the approach of the High Holy Days ,
to wish my fellow Jewish citizens a good and pros-
perous new year.
The conception underlying the Jewish observ-
ance of the new year has always appealed to me.
It is a day of self-examination with a view to cor-
recting one's shortcomings in the year to come.
It is not a day of contrition, but rather of the
religious spirit.
This is the spirit which animated the original
settlers of our country of all denominations who
came to our shores to seek freedom to worship God
according to their own conscience.
The separation of church and state is a funda-
mental American principle. The pursuit of virtue
sanctioned by religion is at the basis of any civil-
ized state. Because the Jewish people have a genius
for religion. they have made their great contribu-
tion to civilization from which men and women of
every race and creed have benefited.
May the new year bring to all of us a better
understanding based upon respect for our differ-
ences and the recognition of our commoun humanity.
Larger &dies Announced
For Victory Six Line.
larger and roomier bodies, af-
fording greater vision, in all closed
models of the Victory Six line
have been announced by Dodge
Brothers. The new type bodies
now in the hands of all dealers are
available in the sedan, sport sedan,
coupe and coupe-brougham. In
designing the changes. engineers
have retained the Victory Six
roadability featured by its low cen-
ter of gravity and sweeping, grace-
ful appearance.
Mechanical changes of the im-
proved Victory Six models include
an engine temperature indicator
on the dash board, grouped under
the glass panel with gas gauge, oil
pressure indicator, speedometer
and ammeter, and the location of
the starting button on the dash
hoard within each reach of the
driver.
Maximum vision for the driver
and occupants of the front seat has
been effected by an increase of 76
square inches in the area of the
windshield. The height and length
of the sedan models and coupe-
brougham have been increased to
the greatest head and leg room
for all passengers.
Doors of the sedans have been
widened approximately three
I inches, and are built higher. Glass
area cf each front door window
has been increased by HO square
inches. In each rear door window
the glass area has been increased
52 square inches.
The officers and directors
of this institution extend
sincere wishes to the
Jewish community for a
year of health, happiness
and contentment.
