Young, Old Enjoy Vacation
at Samson's Resort

Samson's Resort — famous for
more than 30 years as the ren-
dezvous of the gayest crowd in
South Haven—announces the addi-
tion of new-large, airy rooms and
a spacious recreation hall as its
contribution toward making the
1941 season a signal success.
As ever, the highly praised
meals, modern rooms, and complete
facilities for every sport and en-
tertainment requirement combine
to make a vacation at Samson's
a never-to-be-forgotten experience.
Here in the "coolest spot in
Michigan" you can rest and play,
and have a wonderful time doing
it. Young people like Samson's
because they enjoy its informal
atmosphere of fun and gayety.
Old people like its acres of sur-
rounding grounds and restfulness.
If you are planning a Michigan
vacation, be sure to write to Sam-
son's Resort, South Haven, Michi-
gan, for full information about
rates and accommodations.

If you have a musical genius
in the family send him to Mrs.
Elkan Voorsanger, famed war-
relief worker and sister of Judge
Anna Moskowitz K•oss, who is
the discoverer of 11-year-old Lo-
rin Maazel, the genius who is to
conduct the NBC Symphony Or-
chestra in a series of Saturday
night concerts. Mrs. Voorsanger,
wife of the Milwaukee Welfare
Fund director, has a hobby of
developing musical prodigies and
her latest discovery is just one
of many. Maybe NBC ought to
call her to New York.

Deaths of the Week

SAN FRANCISCO (J P S)—
One of the outstanding leaders of
American Jewry on the West
Coast who achieved nation-wide
distinction passed away on July
4 when Judge Isadore M. Golden
died at the age of 63.
His death occurred as he was
preparing to take an active role
in the district Bnai Brith con-
vention at Seattle in his capacity
of vice-president of the national
Bnai Brith organization. His rami-
fied service to the Jewish people
included office as honorary vice-
hcairman of the United Palestine
Appeal and as president of the
Pacific Coast region of the Zionist
Organization of America.
Judge Golden was born in Ger-
many on May 2, 1878, the son of
a cantor. He was brought to the
United States at the age of six
and educated in California, taking
his law degree from the Univer-
sity of California Law School in
1899.
Judge Golden's first public office
was as justice of the peace, in
which capacity he served from
1904 to 1910. From 1918 to 1932
he was chief deputy District At-
toryney, and in 1932 he was made
a superior court judge.

NEW YORK (JPS)—Sol Ull-
man, former State Assemblyman
and from 1935 to 1939 Assistant
Attorney General, died here at
the age of 48.

Nazis Force Jewish Soldier to
Laud Hitler

LONDON. — (JPS) — Broad-
casting in Yiddish to the Jewish
soldiers of the Russian army, a
man who said his name was
Simon Rednitzky and who was
a Russian Jewish soldier taken
prisoner by the Germans told his
hearers that Hitler was better
to the Jews than Stalin and of-
fered as evidence the fact that
Hitler was planning a Jewish
State in Lublin. He called on
the Jewish soldiers of the Rus-
sian army to desert.
Where the fake began cannot
be easily determined. It is pos-
sible that a Jewish prisoner of
war was tortured into making
the broadcast. It is equally pos-
sible, however, that a Nazi who
knows Yiddish did the job.

WINS ENCYCLOPEDIA AS PRIZE
FOR JEWISH NATIONAL FUND WORK

Vice-President of
Polish Federation

will be announced from the pul-
pits.
"We feel confident that the Jew-
ish community of Detroit will help
the bakers maintain a dignified
and self-respecting position in ob-
serving the sacred Sabbath and
closing their establishments for
that one day during each week.
Our future in this country de-
pends very much upon the elimi-
nation of such abuses from the
Jewish street as the seven-days'
operation of bakeries. We are cer-
tain that with the closing of
shops on Shabbos there will also
be a marked improvement in the
economic status of the trade."

Rabbis Pledge Help

At a meeting of the Detroit
Council of Orthodox Rabbis, held
on June 30, assistance was pledged
to the Sabbath-closing movement.
Rabbi Moses Fischer is chairman
of the Rabbis' Council and Rabbi
Wohlgelernter is secretary. The
rabbis' resolution follows:
"The Detroit Council of Ortho-
dox Rabbis, which has on previous
occasions negotiated with the local
Jewish bakers for the closing of
their stores on Shabbos, was
happy to hear that after several
months of preliminary work by
the Jewish Baker's Association,
their shops will be closed on the
sacred day of rest, beginning
Saturday, July 12.
"It was gratifying to us to
learn that more than 3,000 Jew-
ish women of Detroit have signed
a petition circularized by the Wo-
men's Branch of the Michigan
Synagogue Conference among con-
gregational auxiliaries and sister-
hoods and other women's groups
in the city, pledging themselves to
refrain from patronizing those
Jewish bakeries that are open on
the Sabbath, and giving further
assurance that they will buy only
Jewish bread for their homes.
"On behalf of the Vaad Ha-
Rabbonim, we pledge to the Jew-
ish Baker's Association and the
Women's Branch of the Michigan
Synagogue Conference every pos-
sible assistance. It is high time
for the Jewish community of De-
troit to help the bakers maintain
a dignified and self-respecting
position in observing the sacred
Sabbath and closing their estab-
lishments for that one day dur-
ing each week."
Mrs. Abraham Caplan, a lead-
er in the Women's Mizrachi move-
ment, Rabbi Morris Adler, Rabbi
Joshua S. Sperka, Wolf Cohen, in
addition to the officers already
listed, assisted in visiting the
bakers and in enlisting their co-
operation in the Sabbath-closing
movement.

American Jewish youth organizations recently concluded their
1941 effort in behalf of the Youth Settlement Project on Jewish
National Fund land in Palestine with the award of valuable prizes
to the youthful participants. Outstanding among the prizes was a
$100 set of the Universal Jewish Encyclopedia awarded to Nathan
A. Levine of Scranton, Pa., a member of Hapoel Ha'Mizrachi, the
Orthodox Zionist Youth Organization. In the Encyclopedia, of
which the first three volumes have been published, the story of
Israel, past and present, is told in five million words on 6500
pages to which 613 scholars and experts in various fields of
research have contributed. Isaac Lendman is editor and Louis
Rittenberg is managing editor of this, the most modern Jewish
reference work.
The above photograph shows the Jewish National Fund's com-
mittee on youth activities examining the Encyclopedia volumes
which have been presented to the Keren Kayemeth by the pub-
lishers. The members of the committee (from left to right) were:
M. Furmansky, Mrs. Mordecai Soltes, David Breslau, Naomi Cher-
toff, Isidore Epstein, Mendel N. Fisher, Max Hagler and J. Bin-Nun.

NEW YORK.—(JPS)—A new
group called the Americrn Wom-
en Against Communism, with
headquarters here, says it is
purely American, but Mrs.
Charles G. Ransom, secretary-
treasurer, says:
"It would have been far bet-
ter if Roosevelt and LaGuardia
had kept their mouths shut and
had stopped calling Hitler names.
Of course, this organization is
against all subversive activities.
We are not anti-Semitic but
everybody knows there are a lot
of Jews among the Communists.
Why, among the 65 members of
the first Soviet government,
there were 53 Jews and the
other three had Jewish wives."

misrepresentations of

U. S. Expects Immigration Drop

WASHINGTON. — (JPS) —
Though between 200,000 and
300,000 aliens have applied for
admission to the United States,
the closing of United States Con-
sulates in many foreign coun-
tries will probably affect the
consideration of their cases, the
State Department has indicated.
A drop in immigration is, there-
fore, expected.
