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?

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! Season's Greetings to All My Jewish Friends and Customers By ABRAHAM HERMAN President Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society of America. The end of the year is the time when we turn back the pages and 0(211111M' the records of yesterday. The Jews in America hove many. problems. There are many phases of Jews' life in this country. It is not my purpose to discuss all of these. I want to limit myself to one particular question, namely, that of Jewish migration. It is an old story this tale of Jewish wandering, the reader will impatiently exclaim. True it is an old tale, an ancient story, but a new chapter is written every year, almost every day. And so it has been during the year that has just gone by. material of this new migration so that it could adapt itself to the new life in the new lands. Money alone could not do that. It was necessary to provide human love and sympathy and understanding. ea 4 o 1;P I turn from the old year and look toward Gle dawning of the new and this prayer comes into my heart: May the millions of Jews of America be supremely happy. May they be prosperous. POLANSKI'S Bakery May they shore their happiness with those to whom happiness has as yet been denied.

We see so many of God's creatures seeking peace and shel- ter, asking for naught else but that they be given the opportunity, the • inalienable right of every human being, to he happy. Unfortunately we do not grasp the full signifi- cance of this wandering. For the most part we satisfy ourselves by giving a monetary contribution. I, by no means, minimize the value of these gifts, but we cannot con- tent ourselves merely by giving It donation. That alone will not solve the problem, that alone will not bring happiness and peace. We must realize that we are dealing with bun= lives and that we can- not give them a dole and then for- get all about them. 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 , following a new trek, leading away 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- come mere flotsam and jetsam upon the stormy sea of life.

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. Mt Rosh Hashonah Greetings Solomon Bros.
