(Continued from Page 1)
"would be going over ground
often and well covered. Wherever
in this country, Jews speak of
Detroit, they know and speak of
Fred Butzel. Honor is reflected
upon the Jewish Welfare Federa-
tion in announcing his accept-
ance of the general chairman-
ship of the 1940 Allied Jewish
Campaign."

A new feature of the Junior
Division's 1940 Allied Jewish
Campaign set-up, is a special
gifts committee, which will so-
licit those members of young
Detroit Jewry whose contribu-
tions should be in the higher
brackets. The committee began
its activity in the Pre-Campaign
field April 3, and will continue
working until the opening of the
campaign proper, on May 6.
when its members will throw
their forces into the general
division.

the special gifts committee and
his co-workers include: Wilfred
Doner, Julian Frank, Edwin
Gage, Louis J. Gordon, Harold
Robinson, Hanley Rosenberg, Cy-
ril Wagner and Edwin Wolf.
Maurice A. Glasier is chairman
of the entire junior division and
the three vice-chairmen are Ja-
cob L. Keidan, David Levy, Jr.,

two co-chairmen and eight cap-
tains. In turn, each captain has

Rabbi Wolf Gold Guest Speaker
Fortified with up-to-the-minute
research gathered on his recent
trip to Palestine and South Af-
rica, Rabbi Wolf Gold will ad-
dress a public meeting on behalf
of the United Jewish Appeal at
the Mishkan Israel Synagogue,
Blaine at Linwood, Sunday,

United Jewish Appeal will be the

Postpone Building of Syna-
gogue to Give Maximum
Aid to U. J. A.
Determined that the ruins of
the House of Israel in Europe
muct first be repaired before it
could build its own house of
worship in an atmosphere of
hopefulness and peace for Jews
everywhere, the Jewish com-
munity of Athol, Mass., post-
poned the construction of its
synagogue for the second year
in order to mobilize all its re-
sources for an over-the-top cam-
paign in behalf of the United
Jewish Appeal for Refugees and
Overseas Needs.
When synagogues were in
flames in Germany during the
riots of November 10, 1938, a
small committee in Athol was
drawing up plans for a new
synagogue building. News of
the increased suffering of the
Jews in Germany brought a de-
cision to lay aside the building
of a temple in order to give the
widest support to the Joint Dis-
tribution Committee, the United
Palestine Appeal and the Na-
tional Refugee Service, which
were combined in the 1939
United Jewish Appeal. This year
the emergency of war overseas
moved Athol to postpone once
again the building of its syna-
gogue. With the resolution to
achieve a record response to the
needs of the United Jewish Ap-
peal, Athol's campaign once
again went over the top.

meet at the synagogue Monday
