SEMINARY OPENS
SEMI-CENTENNIAL
NEW YORK.-(WNS)-A call
to Jews and Christians to turn
to their common heritage, the
Bible, for guidance and inspira-
tion in the solution of social prob-
lems and to meet intolerance,
economic distress and threats of
war was sounded by Governor
Herbert H. Lehman in the key-
note address at the opening meet-
ing of the semi-centennial cele-
bration of the Jewish Theological
Seminary of America. Emphasiz-
ing that only the spirit or reli-
gion can be depended upon to
meet these issues, the Governor
said that they result from the
fact that "men have lost faith
in one another," Religion, he
said, "with its belief in a univer-
sal Father, religion with its in-
sistence upon the reality of the
force working for righteousness
in the world, religion I say, is
the natural ally of all those who
would bring a real brotherhood
among men, and end for all time
man's inhumanity to man."
Nearly 1,000 people crowded
the Seminary's library to hear
the Governor's address and other
addresses by Sol M. Stroock,
chairman of the Seminary's board
of directors; Dr. Cyrus Adler,
president of the Seminary; Lewis
L. Strauss, general chairman of
the semi-centennial committee;
and Mrs. Felix M. Warburg. Mr.
Stroock, who succeeded the late
Louis Marshall as chairman of
the board, paid a tribute to Mr.
Marshall, pointing out that the
celebration coincided with Mar-
shall's 80th birthday. "Fittingly
can the Jews of America cele-
brate not only this 80th birthday
of Louis Marshall." he said. "but
in a grander sense can they give
thanks to the Almighty Father
for the gift of this great man's
life to America and to Jewry by
dedicating themselves to the con-
stant and continuing care of the
Jewish Theological Seminar y
which Marshall so happily and
forcefully called 'the light of that
civilization which our forefathers
gave to the world.' We have a
great, an ancient and a lasting
heritage. Let us demonstrate that
we are worthy of it."
BRACHAH ZFIRAH
A True "Alger" Story About a
Yemenite Artist
The story of Brachah Zfirah's
life might make an "Alger" ro-
mance. She is an example of great
talent overcoming almost every
conceivable difficulty. When she
was a year old, she was left com-
pletely orphaned and altogether
without relatives in a strange city.
Her parents had just brought her
from their home in Yemen to Jeru-
salem, and within a short time
passed away in abject poverty.
She had been born in 1911 so that
her early years were clouded by
the hunger, poverty and unsettled
conditions the Great War brought
with it. She belonged to the poor-
est section of Palestinian Jewry-
Yemenites who brought nothing
with them from their medieval
ghetto in southern Arabia and had
to do the worst paid and most
difficult work available in Pales-
tine. Brachah was a housemaid at
the age of nine.
The mature Brachah is one
Zionism's chief contributions to
the creation of a new Hebraic art.
Rescued from that early misery,
educated and net on her feet by an
institution suported and controlled
by a Zionist group in a far-off
country, Brachah was one of the
first orphan girls sent to the Chil-
dren's Village at Meier Shfeyeh,
the model children's community
and school conducted by the Junior
Iladassah, the Young Women's
Zionist Organization of America.
This school has always stressed
education for labor particularly
farming, but that first year was
spent not on farming, but on re-
moving the stones from the ground
to make farming possible there-
after. The years that followed
were happy, though difficulL Mu-
sic was a very important element
in the curriculum, and the chil-
dren even put on plays and
sketches, some of which they them-
selves had composed. In these two
aspects of village life Brachah
shone particularly.
When she graduated in 1925,
the Junior Hadassah's advisory
committee in Palestine helped her
to study dramatics for which she
seemed so fitted. She worked as
an apprentice student in the Pal-
estinian Theater headed by the
first Hebrew actor in Palestine,
Gressin. Ambitious to go further,
on the strength of her own earn-
ings and the help of the advisory
committee, she went to Berlin in
1927 and studied, most success-
fully, with Max Reinhardt.
In Berlin she meta Palestinian
from a very different world, a
Russian born artist with an ex-
ceptionally fine Western training
in piano and musical composition.
Nachum Nardi had come to Pal-
estine after the World War and
immersed in studying the rem-
nants of Oriental Hebrew music,
and in the idea of writing genuine
Palestinian music which would be
modern and yet Oriental. In Bra-
chah he found the Oriental singer
and interpreter of his dreams. Act-
ing was now subordinate to music
in her, and he made the little
Yemenite girl an extraordinary
musical artist. Since 1927 as hus-
band and wife. as parents of a
five-year-old child who is a "won-
derkind," combining the musical
gifts of both, as composer-accom-
panist and singer-interpreter, they
worked together with increasing

MAURICE ARONSSON
To show appreciation for more
than a decade of service rendered
the Knollwood Country Club by
Maurice Aronsson, a testimonial
banquet will be tendered him at the
Book Cadillac Hotel on Thursday,
Jan. 7. Mr. Aronsson has just re-
tired from the presidency of the
club after serving for nine years
since its organization, and con-
secutively since 1931. The esteem
in which he is held by members
of the club was evidenced by an-
other honor given him at the re-
cent annual meeting at which
was elected honorary president.
Mr. Aronsson was succeeded to the
presidency by James I. Ellmann.
Although the dinner next Thurs-
day evening is planned for mem-
bers only, invitations have been
issued to a group of prominent
Jewish and non-Jewish civic lead-
ers who are close friends of Mr.
Aronsson and who have for years
worked together with him in com-
munity affairs. •
Mr. Aronsson's activities in the
Knollwood Country Club are mere-
ly a minute part of his numerous
community contributions which he
has been and is continuing to make
through his various affiliations
with important organizations. He
s the vice-president of the Jew-
ish Children's Home, a member of
the board of directors of the Jew-
ish Welfare Federation and is ac-
tive in many other local agencies.

Relief Sought for
Ostrow Residents
Polish Community Suffering from
Persecution
Mrs. D. Silverstein of 12056
Dexter Blvd., this week received a
heart-breaking appeal from a com-
mittee formed in Ostrow, the prov-
ince of Lomz in Poland, pleading
with former residents of Ostrow
now residing in Detroit to send
immediate relief in order to pro-
long the life of those living there.
The heart-rending appeal points
to the conditions in that city which
are apparently like the conditions
reported to be oppressing the Jews
throughout Poland, Mrs. Silver-
stein's correspondents state that
Polish hooligans surround Jewlesh
stores with bricks and bats and
threaten to beat up anyone who
dares to buy from a Jew.
The meeting of former Ostrow
residents will be held at Mrs.
Silverstein's home at 2 o'clock this
Sunday, and it is urged that all
people who lived in Ostrow should
come to this gathering and help
plan relief action. Those who are
absolutely unable to come are
asked to communicate with Mrs.
Silverstein at Townsend 6-3489.

THE JEWISH COMMUNITY AND
ITS AFFILIATED AGENCIES
EDITOR'S NOTE: The following is one of • series of brief sketches
describing the work of Jewish agencies affiliated with the Jewish
Welfare Federation of Detroit and receiving their income from
the Allied Jewish Campaign.
BNAI BRITH WIDER SCOPE
Bnai Brith was organized in 1843 and was intended
by its founders to "act as a unifying and cultural agency
for the whole of American Jewry." Lack of cohesive force
among the Jews of that period inspired the idea of a so-
ciety "which, based on the teachings of Judaism, would
be free in its deliberations from everything doctrinal and
dogmatic and which would ignore the geographical origins
of its members."
Through the establishment of Hillel Foundations,
begun in 1924 and now operating in 11 universities in
various parts of the country, Bnai Brith is attempting to
bring to the college youth opportunities for religious and
cultural development intended as preparation for leader-
ship in Jewish communal activities. Bnai Brith !fillet
Foundations now exist at University of Michigan, Penn
State University, University of Alabama, University of
California, Cornell University, University of Illinois,
Northwestern University, Ohio State University, Univer-
sity of Texas and University of Wisconsin.
The Anti-Defamation League was organized in 1913
for the purpose of combatting anti-Semitism. It finds itself
now to be one of the main activities in this country en-
gaged in combatting Nazi propaganda as well as native
organizations dealing in this traffic. The League extends
its vigilance to cover the press, stage and screen, schools,
business and other walks of life. Bnai Brith, the American
Jewish Committee and the American Congress formed
the Joint Council in which common action is taken, where
feasible, in matters arising from the German situation.
Under the title Aleph Zadik Aleph, popularly called
A. Z. A., Bnai Brith began to develop junior auxiliaries in
1924 as one of its major activities aiming at the promo-
tion of Judaism through the study of and participation in
Jewish affairs. Leadership is provided by the senior order
through a Supreme Advisory Council and administration
is facilitated by key people who serve as deputies in the
various regions. As a result of the impetus given this
movement through the Wider Scope Campaign, A. Z. A.
has grown to include more than 200 chapters with a
membership of 4,000 young men in all parts of the ccun-
try, with an alumni membership of 4,000.
Included in its good will activities, Bnai Brith main-
tains a medical social worker in the Mayo Clinic at
Rochester, where the special needs of Jewish patients are
met through personal service.
