An Impressive three-day cele-

tire Jews and many non-Jews, at-
tended the anniversary dinner at
Hotel Stetter on Sunday evening.
Speaking for Temple Beth El,
Morris Garrett, president, who
was toastmaster of the evening,
announced that a silver plaque
with an appropriate inscription
will be presented to Dr. Franklin
recording the event. This plaque,
Mr. Garrett said, will be placed
in Rabbi Franklin's home "so that
those who come there may read
it."
Dr. Goldenson's Address
The principal address at the din-
ne• was delivered by Dr. Samuel
H. Goldenson of Temple Emanu-
El, New York, who lauded Dr.
Franklin as "a good rabbi." Dr.
Goldenson called the Detroit cele-
bration "a happy occasion" be-
cause it served as a pleasant in-
terlude after many weeks of grief
and sorrow during which Jews
had met to lament the sorrows of
their people and to protest perse-
cutions. "Tonight," he said, "we
are in a totally different mood,
thanks to Dr. Franklin and his
services in this community."
