TO. 6-9804 25 DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and the Legal Chronicle 0 +ober 4, 1940 *4 Hosh Hashonah- Holiday of Pride By RABBI LEIZER LEVIN All our holidays have their distinguished characteristics and their messages which they convey are different one from the other. Passover, for instance, is known as the Holiday of Redemption, of Liberation; Shevuoth, the day of the giving of the Torah; Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement; Sucoth, the Feast of Ingathering. But when we come to the holi- day Rosh Hashonah, we are at a loss to find a clear concise message. The Torah refers to the blow- ing of the Shofar. What does that really signify? To me it seems that this conveys the idea of grandeur, of pride. It is a holiday which speaks not only to us Jews, but to all mankind. It speaks of the greatness and the holiness of God and the great- ness of man. How great is man that God Himself thinks of him, watches over him and even calls him to judgment when his ways do not find favor in His eyes. How proud ought, a Jew be when he hears the voice of the Shofar who calls to him, warns him to wake up, to arise from his slum- ber. This voice tells him and re- 'minds him that God Himself is concerned about him, his deeds and his manner of living. This thought gives us a feeling of great importance, and it tells us at the same time that we must improve our ways, that we must deserve this care and attention given to us by God Himself. When we look around we see what goes on now in this world, when we see that the earth is drenched with blood, that the very air is saturated with hat- red, that brother kills brother, that men have turned to act like wild beasts; when we see that nations rejoice over the fact that they murdered large numbers of people, that they annihilated other nations, that their sword is mightier than the sword of the others, that they succeeded in subduing and oppressing other people; when we see all this, how our heart aches for man- kind that has gone down so low. Indeed this great and deafening noise of the cannons and tanks and bombs have stifled the quiet unassuming voice of the Shofar which tells us in its modest man- ner to live and act like human beings. Let us hope that the voice of the Shofar will reach the ears of our people, the Jewish people, the voice which speaks of noble ideas, noble thoughts, spiritual values, that this voice will be heard by our people. Let the .day Rosh Hashonah remind us that we have to con- nect our children with the learn- ing of our Fathers, with Talmud Torah, where they are connected with the God of Israel, with the people of Israel, and with every- thing which is good and noble in this great world of God. Vaad Hakashruth Activities for the Coming Winter Because of the approach of the High Holidays and the vital prob- lems of Kashruth confronting Detroit Jewry, the following reso- lutions were adopted at an exec- tive meeting of the Vaad Hak- ashruth: "That, in order that Jews of the city of Detroit shall be en- lightened in the arising daily problems of Kashruth and the great importance for the strengthening of the Vaad Hak- ashruth, a series of public gath- erings and mass-meetings is plan- ned, one of these to be held Sun- day, October 6, 7 p.m., at the Congregation Bnai Zion, Holmur corner Humphrey Ayes, at which the world famed Bialstoked Ma- gid, Rabbi Rappaport, who is visiting here, will be the guest speaker, along with members of the Detroit Council of Rabbis. "That the Detroit Synagogous that have been asked to co- operate with the Vaad Hakash- ruth, shall not fail to send offi- cers and members to the above mentioned meetings. "That two Rabbis, members of the Detroit Vaad Harabonim will meet every Tuesday and Thurs- day at the Yeshivah Beth Yehu dah from 3 to 5 p. m., to deal with every Kashruth problem aris- ing daily."

In Aden, there are now crowded several thousands of these Jewish refu- gees hopefully waiting for a pas- sing steamer for transportation to Palestine. The war has now brought added hardships to the already hard lot of the unfor- tunate Yemenite Jews. Food and shelter is lacking and the suf- fering and distress is intense. A message and urgent appeal has just been received from Jo- sef Ben Daveed, the representa- tive of the Jewish Agency sta- tioned at Aden, excerpts from this heart-rending letter are quo- ted. "The suffering of our brethren that I witness daily on the streets of Aden is beyond description and beyond our means to relieve. A complete book would not picture all the hardships endured by these thousands of Yemenite ref- ugees, several hundred of whom are orphans and widows lacking in food and shelter. Where can these poor refugees go? To whom can they appeal for aid. They dare not return to the yoke of the oppressor in Yemen. They have but one alternative, they must wait here in Aden hoping for relief from abroad, praying that Jewish hearts will have pity on them in their misery. "I feel assured that in America many noble-hearted Jews will re- spond to this appeal for aid for the downtrodden and neglected Yemenites. American Jews are known for their charitable na- ture; they will not deny the help so urgently needed to save thou- sands of souls, especially now amid this dreadful war being fought directly over our very heads." This appeal has the sympathic support of leading rabbis through- out the country. At a recent con- vention of the Rabbinical As- sembly of America held at De- troit, a resolution as adopted urging financial support for the relief of Yemenite Jews. A na- tion wide appeal, signed by a group of rabbis, has ben sent to Jewish Congregations, requesting that part of the funds secured from the Yom Kippur eve or Shemini Azereth appeal be de- voted to Yemenite relief. Contributions from sympathiz- ers and friends of the Yemenite cause may be sent to the Ameri- can Committee for the Relief and Resettlement of the Yemenite Jews, 41 Union Sq., New York City. The chairman of the com- mittee is Mortimer J. Propp ; the vice-chairman, Arthur Sherr; the treasurer. Abraham Mazer; and the Executive Committee is com- posed of Abraham Goldberg, Dr. Samuel H. Goldenson, Rabbi Leo Jung, Mrs. Rebekah Kohut, Judge Aaron A. Melniker, Dr. D. de Sola Pool, Louis P. Rocker and Rabbi Milton Steinberg. Mr. Za- charia Gluska, the president of the Yemenite Community of Pal- estine, is here in behalf of his brethren, and will visit the larger Jewish communities, to acquaint them with the plight of the Yem- enite Jews.
