Jewish National Workers'
Alliance Will Work for
Roosevelt's Re-Election

Maxwell L. Black
Dies at Age of 44

NEW YORK. — The Jewish
National Workers' Alliance, a
fraternal organization with
branches in more than 100 cities
throughout the country, came
out for the re-election of Presi-
dent Franklin D. Roosevelt.
In a special call to the mem-
bership, the General Executive
Board of the organization urged
the branches to form pro-Roose-
velt committees to work in con-
junction with other labor groups
interested in the re-election of
the President.
The action of the General Exe-
cutive Board is in keeping with
the resolution to this effect adopt-
ed by the recent 15th Conven-
tion of the Alliance, held in De-
troit in early June, at which
time it was not yet certain whe-
ther the President would again
be a candidate.
In its call to the members,
the General Executive Board
calls attention to the "unequivo-
cal opposition of the President
to Nazism, Fascism and Dicta-
torship, in the struggle against
which he has appeared as the
foremost banner-carrier of free-
dom and democracy."
The statement also calls at-
tention to the progressive legis-
lation enacted during the Presi-
dent's terms in office and to the
humanitarian stand he has tak-
en on behaf of victims of Nazi
persecution.
"As workers, as progressives
and as Jews," the statement says,
"we beieve that the present crit-
ical international situation de-
mands that President Boosevet
continue to head the forces of
American democracy in the strug-
gle to safeguard and preserve our
human civilization."
It adds further that in each
of the nine districts into which
the Alliance branches throughout
the country are grouped, special
conferences will be held before
the end of this month to map
out the participation of the Al-
liance membership in the cam-
paign to re-elect President Roose-
velt.

Mizrachi Conducts
Its Campaign for
Nachlath Herzog

The report last week of the
bombing of Tel Aviv was an
added incentive to the work of
the committee, headed by Jacob
Levin, president of the Jewish
Home for Aged, to raise funds
for the building of Nachlath Her-
zog, a colony for religiou s ref-
ugees in Palestine. This commit.
tee held a joint meeting with
the Mizrachi educational commit-
tee at the home of Daniel Tem-
chin of Gladstone Ave., Sept.

12.
Rabbi Max J. Wohlgelernter
reported that the Detroit region
of Michigan Synagogue Confer.
ence, at its meeting Sept. 9, ap-
proved the making of appeals in
the synagogues during the Hi gh
Holy Days in behalf of Nachlath
Herzog. The aid of Louis Dann
was enlisted to approach the
presidents of the synagogues in
Detroit to make appeals.
Rabbi Abraham Danzig of Wy-
andotte, a former resident of
Palestine and graduate of Pales-
tine Yeshivas, who has taken an
active interest in Mizrachi work
in Detroit, volunteered to ap-
proach the synagogues in Del-
ray, River Rouge and Wyandotte
for funds for Nachlath Herzog.
Meyer Beckman, president of
the Mizrachi Organization of
Detroit, pointed out that the
money would go to the Jewish
National Fund with whom the
Nizrachi is collaborating in this
project, and he asked that when
appeals are made in the syna-
gogues that the response be gen-
erous because "in this hour of
need our less fortunate brothers
over seas have no one else to
turn to but to us and we dare
not let them down."
The Mizrachi educational com-
mittee, of which Daniel Temchin
is chairman, and on which are
also Irving Schlussel, Isidore
Sosnick, Isaac Rosenthal and Sol
Lumberg, submitted plans for
M'Laveh Malkes to be held
throughout the winter months to
be addressed by prominent speak-
ers. The Ladies of Zion Miz-
rachi have volunteered to handle
the preparation of food for these
events.
Plans were also made for the
annual banquet of the Miz-
rachi. The date was tentatively
set for Jan. 12, 1941. Rabbi
Danzig and Mr. Beckman were
named co-chairmen of this af-

fair The
h following Mizrachi mem-
bers were named delegates to the
Zionist Council of Detroit: Rab-
bis Wohlgelernter, Isaac Stoll-
man, Danzig; Messrs. Rosen-
thal, Temchin, Beckman, Jacob
Levin, Sosnick, Sol Lumberg,
Edward Rottenberg and Miss Zel-
da Rosenthal.
