Against Savagery of Nazis in Germany

Rabbi Hershman
Address
Action to Be Planned Here Over Week-End to Be An-
nounced at Public Meeting of Jewish Congress
at Central High School
The next meeting of the Sis-
terhood of Shaarey Zedek will be
held on Monday, Nov. 14, at
2 p. m.
The program chairman, Mrs.
Nathan Spevakow, reports that
Rabbi A. M. Hershman will speak
on • timely subject. Since world
Mobilization of liberal and Christian world sentiment Wedne:day for
against the wholesale extermination of Jews in Germany and
their pauperiiation through violence and vandalism is announced by national
Jewish organizations as a means of forcing the cessation of savagery in
Germany.
The Detroit chapter of the American Jewish Congress announced on
Friday that plans for action will be formulated over the week-end and that
community action will be taken at the meeting at Central High School, Tux-
edo near Linwood, on Wednesday evening, at 8:15 o'clock. Although this
meeting is called for the purpose of electing officers and hearing reports on
the Congress sessions held last week in New York, the community at large
is invited to this rally in view of the rising emergency situations which will be
discussed at that time.
The burning of more than 40 synagogues throughout Germany, hun-
dreds of suicides, the murder of at least two Jews, the molesting of children,
the interpretation of confiscation of children's toy guns as the finding of
weapons in Jewish possession, are among the horrors reported from Germany
where infuriated and inaaned brown-ahirted Nazis are exacting vengeance
for the death of von Rath who was assassinated by a 17 year old Polish-
Jewish youth in Paris.

Jewry is paying tribute to Mena-
hem Ussishkin on his 75th birth-
day, Rabbi Ilershman, who has
been a warm personal friend and
admirer of Ussishkin, will give
an evaluation of the personality
of the man and the contributions
which he has made. Mr. Ussishkin
is world president of the Jewish
National Fund.
Mrs. Lillian Wittenberg, mu-
sical chairman of the afternoon,
announces the following program
of Hebrew. Jewish and English
songs, which will be rendered by
Ruth Braman, soprano, well
known in musical circles and also I
for her radio work. Miss Brot-
man will be accompanied by Lil-
lian Sarnoff, an outstanding pian-
ist and accompanist.
The songs to be rendered are:

hefts; 121 "Volt Mein Tette

(3) "Joy," by Wintter Watts;

Because of the nature of this
program, the sisterhood invites
the public to attend. A social
hour will follow the meeting.
Mrs. Charles ( Robinson, presi-
dent, will preside.
This outstanding achievement, coming at the close of the
summer season and well ahead of normal expectation, is
significant of the return of confidence throughout the
country in business improvement —significant, too, of
established public confidence in the security of life insurance
as represented in the policies of this strong, progressive,
soundly administered company.
The Great-West Life records its acknowledgment to those
policyholders, new and old, whose confidence made possible
this achievement.

A Persian Jew by the name
of Yerushalmi is now in this
country trying to raise funds to
build a hospital around what
tradition says is the tomb of Mor-
decai and Esther, central figures
in the Purim epic.
An entirely new note in styl-
ing has been achieved in the
1939 Buicks. Not only is there
a striking improvement in the
appearance of the cars due par-
: A. H. BELFIE
Director of Merchandising,
Buick Motor Division
ticularly to the adoption of cat-
walk cooling, but the changes
have also been of material bene-
fit both from the standpoint of
aerodynamics, popularly known
as streamlining, as well as in su-
perior vision. In the new entrance
lines of the car which are the
focal points in the new styling,
the grilles are set in rakish con-
tours in the cat-walk section of
the front end, bringing them
lower, thus resulting in better
streamlines while at the same
time permitting a narrower hood
for better vision and bringing
air to the radiator at greater
pressure, promoting increased
cooling efficiency.
A. H. Beale, director of mer-
chandising of the Buick Motor
Division, stated: "It is well recog-
nized among engineers that a
design which is right looks right.
This is particularly true of ob-
jects which are considered in
connection with velocity, such as
a bullet, torpedo, bird-in-flight,
an arrow, etc. Low, long, sleek
lines are associated with high
speed operation and they must
be no because of the need for re-
ducing wind resistance. For 1939
the Buick car has these qualities
of length, lowness and rakish
lines to an unusual degree. These
lines have beeli achieved by a
substantial Traction in the
height of the chassis due to im-
provements in design as well as
by the introduction of the new
front end made possible by the
cat-walk cooling system."
