are combined in the modern efforts
for the movement.
Mr. Ehrlich Reminisce..
Mr. Ehrlich, in his response,
took occasion to relate some of his
reminiscences on his Zionist ac-
tivities. He drew: a picture of
Zionist efforts in which he partic-
ipated in the past quarter of a
century. Ile described his first
interests and his work for Zion-
ism in Milwaukee and Chicago,
and then revelwed the activities in
Detroit, with the formation of the
Kadirnah, Yavneh and other soci-
ties which preceded the present
District plan.

new Detroit Jewish musical organ-
ization formed by the recent amal-
gamation of the Hal vy Choral So-
ciety and the lieu)! ir Choral So-
ciety. The new 11 0C ety will carry
on the work of the o riginal groups
in the field of Jewish music, but on
• much larger scale because of the
vastly greater resources of the
combined organization, whic h
should serve to bring it to the fore-
front among Jewish choral groups
in America.
The musical leadership of the
Halevy-Hazomir Cho ral Society is
in the hands of Rev. K Zaludkow-

tors of the individual societies.
