rey Zedek. Cantor Rosenfeld served
in this capacity for three years be-
fore Cantor Sonenklar was ele-
vated to this office.
Cantor Samuel Mogull was elect-
ed vice-president; Jacob Skolnik,
secretary; Cantor B. Moldaysky,
treasurer.
The newly elected officers are
contemplating a revival of the
cultural and musical activities of
the association. A concert will be
held soon in cooperation with the
Mizrachl Organization for the
benefit of unemployed cantors. It
is planned to make this an affair
which will draw the interest and
patronage of the community. The
date will be announced shortly.
Among the plans suggested by
Cantor Rosenfeld is one calling
for an exchange of cantors by the
different pulpits on a city and
country-wide scale, calculated to
be helpful to all congregations.
This suggestion will be taken up
by the National Cantors' Associa-
tion with headquarters in New
York in a short time.
The installation of the newly
elected officers will take place next

JEW SAVED FROM
DEATH SENTENCE
BY GEN. WAVELL
(CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE)
ing to overflowing, Dr. Chaim
Weizmann, president of the Jew-
ish Agency for Palestine, charged
the British government with
shackling the creative powers of
the Jewiskpeople, and causing an
economic crisis which is not the
fault of the economic structure
of the Yishub but the result of
an "artificially created" political
situation. Declaring that the
Royal Commission was "incorrect"
in its conclusion that the British
Mandate is unworkable, Dr. Weiz-
man said that the Palestine gov-
ernment had failed in giving it a
"fair chance." While any form
of partition involves • "real sac.
rifice" on the part of all Jews.
they are being asked to make this
sacrifice to make possible the real-
ization of the essential ideal and
to insure the scope of continuous
Jewish immigration for establish-
ing a comprehensive Yishub of
several millions," Dr. Weizmann
asserted. Palestine was precious
to all Jews and not merely to the
"Neinsager" (opponents to parti-
tion), Dr. Weizmann said.

bility to the community and pre-
paring them for future leadership.

RABBI S. Z. FINEBERG
pose of the conclave is to organ-

tions in the state of Michigan and
at the same time found Mizrachl
groups in various Michigan cities.
The state gathering is sponsored

sponses have already been re-
ceived from delegates and speak-
ers of Detroit, Mt. Clemens,

dent; S. Wineman, secretary; B.
Wineman, terasurer.

the sessions.
In commenting upon the passage
of the New Housing Bill, Eugene
W. Lewis, president of the Indus-
trial Morris Plan Bank of Detroit,
stated than in his opinion the next
recovery will be greatly aided by
the revival of the building indus-
try, which has not yet gotten well
under way since the major depres-
sion,
With plenty of money available
for building on the most favorable
terms ever offered to the public, he
expects that there will be • sub-
stantial revival in the industry
during this year. He thinks that
the revival of Title I of the Na-
tional Housing Act, to assist in the
modernization of property, is a
step in the right direction, and he
looks for much activity along this
line this spring.
His bank mime more the 15,000
modernization loans within a peri-
od of less than two years, while
the former Act was in force, and
he hopes that it will be able to do
a large volume of this business
again. Under Title I of the Act
during the short period it was in
force, over $500,000,000 was loaned
by banks and finance companies,
and the effects of the elimination
of this service were immediately
noticed as soon as the Act was un-
fortunately permitted to expire on
March 31, 1937.
Detroit Mizrachi Efforts
MONTREAL. — The Sun Life
of Canada—the Dominion', larg-
est life insurance company—is-
sued over $250,000,000 of new
paid-for life assurance during
1937, $30,000,000 more than in
1936. The total assurances in
force held by more than a mil-
lion policyholders now exceed
$2,890,000,000, an increase dur-
ing the year of $120,000,000.
Marked increases in both new
business and assurances in force
were recorded in Canada. United
States and Great Britain. The
assets of the company were in-
creased by more than $53,000,-
000 during 1937, bringing the
present total to more than $831,-
000,000, the highest in the his-
tory of the company.
The 1937 statement released
here at the 67th annual meeting
by Arthur B. Wood, president
and managing director, discloses
the wide scope of the company's
operations, which practically en-
circle the globe. It also reflects
economic conditions in the coun-
tries where the Sun Life does
business and offer striking evi-
dence of the stability and serv-
ice of life insurance.
At the meeting of the execu-
tive committee of Detroit Miz-
rachi, Wednesday, Feb. 2, at
Lacher's, plans for the activity of
