Editor, Detroit Jewish Chronicle:
Har Sinai Congregation in Bal-
timore is making preparations for
the celebration of its 100th an-
niversary. This celebration will
be a magnificent symbol of lib-
erty and freedom in the Amer-
ican democracy, and a great
testimonial to living liberal Juda-
ism on these shores.
We ask all people who may
have documents or reminiscences
bearing upon the life of Har
Sinai Congregation to loan them
to our Historical Committee.
Write us your personal memoirs,
send us your old family notes
or records. We promise to take
meticulous care of whatever •na-
terial is sent us, and to return
it as it was sent.
Please help us in our effort to
strike that keynote of hope, as
we prepare the saga of a syna-
gogue in America.
