the radio, during the presiden-
tial campaign, terming the Jews
as war-mongers in effect, issued
a statement on Nov. 7, welcom-
ing the repudiation by General
Johnson of anti-Semitic preju-
dice.
In behalf of a large section of
Jewry, represented by the Amer-
ican Jewish Congress, Dr. Wise
stated that the statements made
by General Johnson would be
forgotten in the light of his own
retraction and in view of his pre-
vious long-time record of opposi-
tion to anti-Semitism and other
forms of anti-Democracy.
Dr. Wise's statement was
issued following the publication
of General Johnson's column in
the Nov. 7 issue of the World
Telegram, entitled "An Explana-
tion."

Dr. Louis L. Mann, rabbi of
Sinai Congregation, Chicago, and
successor of Dr. Emil G. Hirsch,

Odessa Progressive Aid
Society Games Party
on Nov. 20

The Odessa Progressive Aid
Society drive committee is spon-
soring a card and bingo party on
Wednesday, Nov. 20, at the Bnai

On Thanksgiving morning,
Thursday, Nov. 21, at 10:30, in
the large auditorium of the De-
troit Institute of Arts, there will
be held the 39th annual inter-de-
nominational community Thanks-
giving service. This service, which
was the first of its kind to be
established anywhere, has become
a prime factor for better under-
standing and good will among the
various religious groups in De-
troit.
Among those who stood at the
helm of the organization almost
two-score years ago were such
men as Dr. Lee S. McCollester,
then pastor of the Church of our
Father, and latterly dean of Tufts
Theological School in Massachu-
setts; Rev. Kehemiah Boynston,
one of the outstanding leaders in
the Congregational Church; Dr.
Herman P. DeForest of the same
denomination; Dr. Reed Stewart
of the Unitarian Church, and Dr.
Leo M. Franklin of Temple Beth
F.I. Of the original grbup who
founded the service, Dr. Franklin

is the only surviving clergyman
still living in Detroit.
There were a number of out-
standing laymen also interested in
the establishment of this service,
among them the late C. A. New-
comb, Frank D. Taylor and Wil-
liam C. Leland.
This year the preacher will be
the Rev. Joseph M. M. Gray of
Washington, D. C., where he has
served for a number of years as
Chancellor of the American Uni-
versity. Previous to his acceptance
of this post in the capitol city, Dr.
Gray was pastor of the Central
Methodist Church of this city.
Dr. Franklin will act as chair-
man of this year's service.
The music will be furnished by
the chorus choir of the Church of
Our Father. The offering will, as
usual, be for the benefit of the
Detroit Community Fund.
Services will begin at 10:30 and
will conclude at 12 o'clock. The
public is invited to attend this
inter-denominational service, which
is deeply religious in spirit.

JUNIOR CONGREGATION OF
SHAAREY ZEDEK

The Junior Congregation will
hold its services this Sabbath,
Nov. 16, at 9:30 a. m. in the
Kate Frank Memorial Building.
The Biblicals portion will be dis-
cussed by Lorraine Wine and the
Prophetic selection will be ana-
lyzed by Pearl Klein.

In these days of sorrow, when
there seems to be no future and
no hope for the Jewish nation,
it is inspiring to hear of the
announcement of Hashomer Hat-
zair, world Zionist youth organiza-
tion, that from its ranks has
arisen the fourth American kib-
butz (collective in Palestine).
In late August, over 100 young
adults, representatives of groups
all over the country gathered at
the Shomer camp and training
farm at Liberty, N. Y., reviewed
the world situation and the plight
of the Jewish masses. In the
light of this analysis they discuss-
ed their position and their task,
analyzing the full implication of
any decision they could make. By
unanimous resolution they formed
the fourth American kibbutz, fol-
lowing in the footsteps of three
older collectives, two of which arc
now settled on the soil of Pales-
tine. Although the final decision
had to come from the groups in
the various cities, whose combined
membership numbers over 200,
there was no doubt in anyone's
mind as to the final decision. They
would link themselves with the
Jewish nation and its future.
Theirs would be the task of put-
ting the nation on a sound basis,
by aiding in its return to Pales-
tine, and by working on the soil,
from which their people has been
so long estranged. Kibbutz Doled
was formed and would soon join
the ranks of the chalutzim in
Palestine.
Arrangements must now he
made for agricultural training at
the hachshara (collective training
farm), and financial arrangements
must he made for transporting
the embryonic chalutzim to Pal-
estine.
After much clarification the of-
ficial verification has come from
the central office. Every eligible
group has announced its accept-
ance of the idea and has definitely
joined he kibbutz. The young pion-
eers are forming another vital
living link between the Zionist
work being done here, and Pal-
estine, the land of Jewish hope.
Among those who are founding
the kibbutz are nine young men
and women of Detroit who are
carrying on the tradition of their
comrabe Ephraim Tikton who gave
his life for the Zionist ideal, and
in the tradition of several other
Detroiters who are now in col-
lectives in Palestine.
