Miss Geraldine Kassover, of
Bayonne., New Jersey, national
membership co-chairnan of Junior
Hadassah, the Young Women's
Zionist Organization of America,
has been speaking to capacity
audiences in New York, Chicago,
Milwaukee, Indianapolis, and Buf-
fa lo about the part which the
Jew ish youth of Palestine is tak-
ing in the war effort. She is tell-
ing about the enlistment of thou-
sands of young men and women
in the Birtish Army units, about
the work in the factories and
.farms to produce munitions and
food and the contributions of
overtime work pay to a fund aid-
ing the families of Jewish sold-
iers.
The Detroit unit of Junior
Hadassah is sponsoring two spec-
ial meetings featuring Miss Kass-
over. These meetings, under the
chairmanship of Ida Sandra Mil-
stein, will be held Oct. 26 and
27 at 7:30 p. m. at the Jewish
Community Center, and are open
to all members, prospective mem-
bers, and other Jewish girls in
Detroit who are 'interested in the
work of Junior Hadassas.
In addition to being a member
of the national board of Junior
Hadassah, Miss Kassover is first
vice-president of the New Jersey
Region of the organization. She
studied at New York University,
where she majored in English.
She has devoted most of her
time in the past four years to
promoting the American and
Palestine program of Junior Had-
assah. In this country the organ-
ization takes part in all aspects
of civilian defense. In Palestine
it supportsa children's village
for underprivileged and refugee
boys and girls, a citrus farm for
special training of graduates of
the children's village, and a
nurses training school; and aids
in the settlement of young Euro-
pean refugees in Palestinian
agricultural colonies and trade
centers, and in acquiring land
for cultivation by Jewish settlers.
Anne O'Hare McCormick
Cass Theater Town
Hall Speaker Oct. 30
Anne O'Hare McCormick, auth-
or, journalist and outstanding
foreign correspondent of The
New York Times, speaks for the
Detroit Townhall, in the Cass
Theater, next . Friday morning,
Oct. 30, at 11 o'clock.
For twenty years Mrs. Mc-
Cormick's penetrating articles on
European affairs, in the New
York Times, have won her inter-
national recognition as America's
foremost journalist and as an
authority on contemporary poli-
tics. In 1927 she was awarded
the Pulitzer prize for her dis-
tinguished reporting of Europe
during that crucial year.
Mrs. McCormick's lecture "Men
of Destiny" is more important
than ever in these critical times.
In her extensive world travels
she has interviewed all the na-
tional political leaders — Hitler,
Stalin, Venizelos, Dollfuss, Stres-
emann, de Valera, Schuschnigg,
Blum, President Roosevelt, Mus-
solini, and Winston Churchill, of
our day.

This experience — plus the vigor to follow
