1000th Isssue of
Hadoar is Out
The 1000th issue of "Hadoar",
only Hebrew weekly in the
United States, is the largest sin-
gle issue in the history of Hebrew
journalism in America.
Published this month, the jubi-
lee number is rich in critical ar-
ticles dealing with "Hadoar",
valuable essays of Biblical inter-
est, poems by A. S. Schwartz,
Gabriel Preil, Hillel Bavli, Efraim
Lisitzky, Isaac Silberschlag, Is-
rael Efros, and translations by
Aaron Zeitlin of poems by Lord
Tennyson, A. E. Housman, Goe-
the, Lermontov, Pushkin and
others.
Daniel Persky has written a
warmly reminiscent article about
"Hadoar" and the people who
have worked with the weekly
throughout the years. A. R. Ma-
lachi's "From the First to the
Thousandth" tells of some of the
tribulations of the "Hadoar's"
existence, while Menachem Riba-
low, editor during the past 20
years, describes, in the leading
essay, the role of Hebrew in
America and the gradual progress
of each Hebrew journal up to
and including "Hadoar". He
movingly describes the years dur-
ing which "Hadoar" grew larger,
and at the same time that the
world has so radically changed.
Professor Yahuda's invaluable
article on "Moslem Theories Con-
cerning Moses' Burial Place" is
one of many essays on the Bible.
Dr. Kaminko has written on the
"Book of Ruth", Bar-Dromo on
the intriguing subject of "Where
Is Mount Sinai?"
Personalities are told about in
Yochanaan Twersky's "Rachel,
Daughter of Bashi", and Yocha-
naan Pograbinsky's "Ahad Ha-am
and Vladimir Jabotinsky".
From the literary point of view,
there are essays dealing with
"Yiddish Literature During the
Past Twenty Years", by Abraham
Goldberg, "Juvenile Newspapers
in Hebrew" by Chaim Lifshitz.

Bravery of British Jews Stirs
Praise, Says Bentwich
NEW YORK. (JPS)—Bravery
of British Jews in military action
and during air raids has over-
come entirely the backwash of
anti-Semitic suspicion that was
noticeable in England before the
war, according to Norman Bent-
wich, former Attorney - General
for the Palestine Government.
In an off-the-record talk to the
Committee of Jewish Writers to
Aid Great Britain, Mr. Bentwich
also said that the enterprise and
spirit shown by British Jews in
air-raid shelters was responsible
for much of the official entertain-
ment provided.

Grateful Guest
Highly Recommends
The Colonial Hotel
Max Elkin, manager of the
Colonial Hotel and Mineral
Baths of Mt. Clemens, received a
letter from Sam Friedman of
Cleveland in which the service
at the Colonial is lauded highly.
In his letter Mr. Friedman
stated:
"It is not quite three weeks
since I came here suffering from
a severe case of sciatica and
began my series of mineral baths
and treatments. I can already
say that I have had remarkable
results. I no longer need the use
of my cane, and feel that each
day brings more marked im-
provement in a condition which
was considered almost hopeless.
The curative powers of the Mt.
Clemens waters at your estab-
lishment have given me new
health and vitality, and there
are no words that can adequately
express my gratefulness and en-
thusiasm. You may rest assured
that I shall recommend my
friends and all those with whom
I conie in contact who are suf-
ferers of rheumatism of any kind
to your institution so that they
too will benefit."
