Many people do not fully realize
what Life Insurance can mean to
them after the immediate need
for family protection has passed
—say from age 60 onwards. Having provided for your fam-

BNAI DAYID HONORS RABBI SPERKA
WITH GIFT OF TRIP TO PALESTINE
Last Sunday evening, Congre-
gation Bnai David tendered the
testimonial dinner to Rabbi Joshua
S. Sperka, on occasion of his
fifth anniversary with the syna-
gogue. An overflowing audience
attended and many were turned
away.
Myron J. Solomon, toastmaster,
introduced the heads of the vari-
ous auxiliary organizations of
the synagogue, who greeted and
thanked Rabbi Sperka for his co-
operation. Mendel Slobin, Hyman
Rottenberg and David J. Cohen
spoke as past presidents express-
ing their appreciation of the prog-
ress made within Bnai David un-
der Rabbi Sperka'a leadership.
Among the organizations and
movements greeting Rabbi Sperka
on this occasion were Rabbi Saul
Silber of the Hebrew Theological
Seminary of Chicago, the Ameri-
can Jewish Congress, the Zionist
Organization of America, the
Mizrachi Organization of Amer-
ica, the Jewish National Fund,
the Jewish Publication Society,
Vaad Horabonim of Detroit, the
Michigan Synagogue Conference,
'
local and national rabbinical
groups, and individuals. Nearly
100 telegraphic messages were
received.
The guest speaker of the eve-
ning was Dr. Bernard Heller, who
returned from Philadelphia to be
present at the event. As an inti-
mate friend, Dr. Heller presented
an evaluation of Rabbi Sperka
and his accomplishments. Rabbis
Thumim and Wohlgelernter spoke
briefly.
The climax of the evening was
reached when Louis Please, who
earlier in the evening reviewed
the progress and achievements of
Rabbi Sperka as it had developed
from a membership of 90 to
nearly 600 and to a state of
throbbing activity, presented Rab-
bi Sperka with a gift of a trip to
Palestine in token of Bnai David's
appreciation.
Rabbi Sperka, in a stirring and
eloquent response, pledged him-
self to further service of God,
Israel and the laws of Israel.
Rabbi Sperka will leave for Eu-
rope and Palestine this summer.

the Jewish people are now trapped

Julien Bryan, eminent lecturer and traveler
whose descriptions of conditions in Germany cre-

a complete resume of his findings in the Nazi-ruled
Reich at a large meeting in the main auditorium
of the Masonic Temple on Thursday evening, March
16, when he will speak on "Ilitlerism Exposed: In-

Mr. Bryan's address will be based on personal
findings. As a result of his travels in Germany, in
the course of which he interviewed not only officials
but also peasants and workers, Mr. Bryan has be-

the spread of the poison unless it is checked at
the root.
