Shaarey Zedek Juniors to Conduct
Services in Main Auditorium May 22 PRENZLAUER GROUP'S
The Junior Congregation of
Shaarey Zedek will again take
charge of the services in the main
auditorium this Saturday. These
occasions have become long looked
forward to events by the entire
congregation. As In the past the
juniors will provide all their own
participants and in addition to a
rendition of the regular service
there will again be outstanding
features. Rosalind Arfa will give
a resume of the Sedra of the week
and Ruth Nagler will deliver a
talk on the prophetical portion.
Theodore Leibovitz will render a
short discourse on the subject "The
Problems of the Jewish College
Student."
This service, coming the Sabbath
before consecration, represents the
Junior Congregation's contribution
to this festive season. It is their
tribute to the members of this and
previous consecration classes. In
addition to this it is in carrying
out the Sabbath spirit that the
members of the juniors bring forth
the "Bikurim," their own just
fruits to the temple. Their rendi-
tion of the service merely demon-
strates the work that is being done
and it is for this reason that the
members and friends of Congrega-
tion Shaarey Zedek should turn out

daily, with the exception of Satur-
day and Sunday, the bureau will
receive and discuss employment
difficulties arising from discrimi-
nation, with applicants seeking
guidance. The service will be
granted gratis.
The purpose of the bureau is to
survey the extent to which eco-
nomic discrimination is current in
this community, to sift the causes
of such discrimination, and to seek
through negotiations to bring
about a change in attitude on the
part of employing groups in dis-
criminating against Jews.
The action of the commission
has been necessitated by a regret-
able increase in economic dis-
crimination against Jews and by
the failure up until now to deal
with this problem in an organized
and responsible fashion.

(CONCLUDED FROM PAGE 1)
an enthusiastic response both
within and without the synagogue.
This membership drive, carried
on by five division chairmen, 40
captains and nearly 100 workers,
turning over in his mind the prob-
lems relating to it, and during his
recent visit to South America he
once again examined the events
that have brought him as close to
the project of rehabilitating the
Jewish people through the rebuild-
ing of their ancient homeland. Per-
haps we should listen to him for a
moment:
"I have been visiting South
America and had some time away
from the hectic months through
which we have been passing as a
result of the disturbances in Pal-
estine. I have had time to reflect
rather carefully about the whole
position and I have challenged my
basic conception, my basic faith in
the whole proposition, and I have
said to myself: 'Have we been car-
ried away by a great romance, by
emotion, by resentment against op-
pression and persecution to defend
a policy which is impractical and
which cannot lead to the best re-
sults for the Jewish people?' I have
answered that question to myself
once more, and it always comes out
in the same way, that as a purely
practical and reasonable proposi-
tion Palestine is neither a senti-
mental luxury nor a wild ideal, but
basically jjust a simple and prac-
tical proposition for the Jewish
people of this generation and those
to follow."
To Lord Melchett the problem
of rescuing the oppressed Jews of
Central and Eastern Europe is a
wholesale project in slum clear-
ance that stretches from Warsaw
to Berlin. The lives of hundreds of
thousands have been made impos-
sible in Germany, Poland, Rumania
and Austria. Their plight is as
desperate "that we are bound as
Jews all over the world to find
some other place for them to go."
And Palestine is the only land
to which they can go, Lord Mel-
theft believes. "It is no use our
trying to solve this problem by
moving oppressed Jewish commu-
nities from one part of the world
to the other. As a result of the
Balfour Declaration we have a
country in which our rights have
been defined and accepted by all
the nations of the world. That is
our own. Surely our effort, our
whole work, should lie and must lie
in the direction of making a suc-
cess of this."
There is something profoundly
touching about Lord Melchett's
Jewishness. Brought up in the
Church of England, he was
Christian until his late youth.
When the German tragedy occur-
red he returned to Judaism, and
has since been a militant foe of
all the assimilationist pretexts and
evasions that Jewish flesh is heir
to.
Frankly, forthrightly be strikes
out against those Jews who seek
cover under the cloak of assimila-
tion. And he expresses his contempt
of this class in clear, ringing
words:
"I believe that there is a greater
and nobler destiny for the Jewish
people
In this generation than to

MEMBEIISIIIP CAMPAIGN
Honoring Rabbi Joshua S. Sperka
May 15 to June 8
Why Detroit Jews Should Belong to
Congregation Bnal David:
1.—SYNAGOGUE—Con gregation B'nai David has one of the
most attractive, accommodative and easily accessible
synagogues in the community.
2.—RABBI—Rabbi Joshua S. Specks, schooled in Yeshiva of
WILLIAM HORDES
started May 16 and will continue
until June 8, with a view of
doubling the present membership
of the synagogue. This would
permit the congregation to offer
its membership and the commu-
nity more cultural functipns and
to broaden its educational facili-
ties.
This membership campaign was
launched with a special radio
broadcast over the Jewish Radio
Forum and was participated in by
Judge Charles Rubiner, Aaron
Kurland, Rabbi Joshua Sperka
and William Bliznick, violinist.
William Hodres, active local
labor Zionist leader, chairman of
Division C of the membership
campaign, made the following
statement: "Congregation Bnai
'David deserves the growth it is
experiencing because of the able
leadership of Rabbi Joshua Sper-
ka and because of the progressive
policies it furthers within the in-
stitution. Congregation Bnai
David is one of the few syna-
gogues making a conscious at-
tempt to train youth in Zionist
ideology and providing adult edu-
cational and cultural facilities in
addition to being a traditional or-
thodox synagogue,"
Among the active workers in
his division, Mr. Hordes reports,
are Dr. $1. J. Kritchman, Hyman
Rottenberg and Israel Rosin.

Lord Melchett's arrival in this
country at the present time coin-
cides with a decisive moment in
the Palestine situation. As chair-
man of the Council of the Jewish
Agency for Palestine he comes to
us to crystallize and arouse public
opinion in the United States in be-
half of Jewish rights in the re-
building of Palestine. On the eve
of the issuance of the report of the
Royal Commission the Jewish

"Truly a Gay

put itself on record against the
partition or cantonization of Pales-

believe that some such proposal
may be part of the findings of the
commission. What American Jewry
will do in the event that a show
of strength is required comparable
to that of last summer, when there
was a threat of stoppage of Jewish
immigration, is a question of the
utmost concern to Lord Melchett.
