They emphasized that without
he co-operation of the Mufti's
circle, negotiations of any kind
ire considered impossible by
them, while negotiations with
Jews are altogether out of the
queetio nfrom their viewpoint.
Thus it is essential for their
cause, they declared, that the
Arabs continue the terror that
has gripped Palestine for the last
two years until such time as the
Arab demands are granted.
Reaction, to Report
NEW YORK. - (WNS) - A
boycott of British and American
trade throughout the Moslem
world will be launched "if the
British and Americans continue
their present policy in Palestine,"
it was announced by Jamil Bey
Beyhun, wealthy Syrian Moslem
landowner, on his arrival in New
York to put the Arab cause be-
for the American public. Ile said
the decision to begin the boycott
has already been taken by the
Palestine Arab leaders.
Expressing relief but no sur-
nrise at the Woodhead Commis-
sion's conclusion that the parti-
tion of Palestine is not feasible,
the executive committee of the
American Non-Zionist Members
of the Jewish Agency, which has
been consistently opposed to
partition, issued a statement here
declaring "we are glad that the
British Government has decided
to convoke a round-table confer-
ence of Arabe and Jews, which
we have long urged, because we
believe that once the different
elements of the population could
come together for a full and
frank discussion,' a great deal
would be gained."
The committee, composed of
Dr. Cyrus Adler. president of the
Jewish Theological Seminary; Sol
Stroock, chairman of the execu-
tivecommittee of the American
Jewish Committee; and Dr. Mau-
rice J. Karpf, expressed gratifi-
cation at "the assurance of the
British Government that they
'will keep constantly in mind the
international character of the
Mandate with which they have
been entrusted and their obliga-
tions in that respect.' We trust
that they will reconsider the ex-
pressed intention of inviting rep-
resentatives of the neighboring
countries to the proposed confer-
ence."
lfadassah also expressed gads-
faction at the proposal for an
Arab-Jewish conference but em-
phasized that "Jews could be a
party to further discussion only
on the basis of the Balfour Dec-
laration and the Mandate."

harmonious one. Any problem,
and any program concerning
Progress and whlfare in Detroit,
concerns us intimately. The meas-
ure of benefit implies a measure
of obligation. We would not want
it otherwise.
"During the days between Nov.
28 and Dec. 14, when the Detroit
Community Fund's 1939 cam-
paign will be conducted, we, as
Detroiters and as Jews, are going
to be asked to do our part. It is
only fitting that we do so because
the cause belongs to us.
"What the Community Fund
has contributed toward humani-
tarian service, and social progress
in the past is a matter of record.
And a record of which we can be
proud. Its program for the corn-
ing year is part of the same pat-
tern. We feel that Federation
members know the community
and its needs, but sometimes even
those who are informed of the
general plan lose sight of impor-
tant details, details which we, as
Jews should remember portico.

OUR SCHOOLS
Excerpts From Radio Talk
by Harry Cohen, President
of United Hebrew Schools
of Detroit
The United Hebrew Schools
are making it possible for the
Jewish people of Detroit to give
their children a thorough educa-
tion. The schools are located in
the most populated Jewish sec-
tions in the city. The main school
is in the Twelfth Street section,
at Philadelphia and Byron. An-
other school, equally as large,
is in the Dexter district. at Tuxe-
do and Hohnur. Still other
schools are in the Oakland sec-
tion, in the Fenkell neighbor-
hood, Six Mile Road section, and
in the Jewish Community Center.
We also opened classes in three
of thepublic schools. These
schools are located as follows:
MacCulloch Public School, at
Buena Vista and Wildemere,
Central High School, Tuxedo and
LaSalle, Brady Public School
Joy Road and Lawton.
Children are accepted. at a
very early age, as early as the
age of five. Such children are
admitted to the kindergartens
where efficient kindergarten
teachers are in charge of these
little ones. Children of the age
of six and over are admitted to
the regular elementary classes.
It takes a child seven years to
complete this elementary course.
The-child. is them •eady :for the'
next advanced course, the junior
high school, after which he en-
ters the senior high school. All
together, a course of four years.
TOe student who completes our
elementary school is not an Am
HaAretz any more, and one who
completes also the four year high
school course is indeed one of
whom we of the Schools are cer-
tainly very proud. These boys
and girls who have completed
these courses are now at the
head of various educational and
Philanthropic youth organizations
here in the city of Detroit. They
are looked up to for advice and
guidance in matters of Jewish
culture. The problem of educat-
ing our children must get our
immediate attention. It is a mat-
ter which must not be delayed
even for one day. Parents are
urged to connect themselves at
once with one of the schools in
their neighborhood.
