OVAIN10111111.111aliMMOMPIIIIIMP. January 8, l'43 DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and The Legal Chronicle 12 COURT (Continued from Page 1) were recited • in all churches in England on the first Sunday of the New Year at the suggestion of the Archbishop of Canterbury, head of the Anglican Church in Britain, and J. S. Whale, Mod- erator of the Free Churches. The two church leaders issued a statement expressing "bitter grief that our nation can do so little to help" the unfortunate Jews, and declaring that "short of victory there is no way in which we can effect anything comparable to the need and the massacre which go on from day to day. We should be united in constant prayer to the Almighty that this monstrous evil may be checked and the Jews delivered from their tormentors." Writing in the London Daily Herald, Harold Laski appealed to President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill for "a policy of action which will light the flame of hope in those Jewish hearts which now see no future save the choice between the mer- cy of a swift death and torture which brings release more slowly." Mr. Laski explained that he asked for action "on the ground that a nation which does not act against the commission of monstrous wrong becomes an ac- complice in its infliction. After all, that is the outstanding lesson of the policy of appeasement." Earlier, the Bishop of Chi- chester proposed that the British government, through a neutral power, approach Germany with a plan to rescue as many Jews, especially women and children, as possible. The Bishop stressed: "Our only answer to the tragic cries of the Jews is steps to be taken now, before it is too late to effect their deliverance." FEDERATIONS (Continued from Page 1) time. In his presidential address, Sidney Hollander of Baltimore will analyze the Council's activi- ties in 1942, with particular em- phasis on the phases of the na- JAMES MARSHALL tional program undertaken in be- half of the member agencies. James Marshall of New York, chairman of the assembly pro- gram committee, will review the economic developments arising from the war and the impact of current conditions on welfare pro- grams and interests. The official Sunday morning session will open with a report from the committee on Civic- Protective Organizations. The 1942 assembly adopted a resolu- tion calling for unification of the programs of the four major na- tional defense agencies. At a meeting of the council's board the next day, a committee was appointed and has worked on the project continuously during the year. Following a series of con- ferences, with the defense agen- cies, the Council's Committee, at the direction of the board, sub- mitted to the civic-protective groups a comprehensive plan looking towards the creation of a central operating body for de- fense work in the United States. The committee met on Jan. 6 to review the status of its proposal and to prepare a report for sub- mission to the membership at the assembly. To Discuss Fund-Raising Next on the agenda will be a report from the committee on fund-raising policies which will include a summary for 1943, in- cluding the effects of war-time taxation and 'other economic fac- tors on the income of private Shedd Products Co. Introduces a New Margarine (Keyko) Bnai Moshe Sisterhood Pay-up Luncheon Jan. 11 Shedd Products Company, of 14401 Dexter Blvd., is introduc- ing a new margarine product. At this time the public is anxious to know what margarine is. For the information of the public the Shedd Products Company answers the question. What he margarine? It is an energy food with a flavor which makes it desirable for table purposes, seasoning and shortening. It supplies fuel you need for work or play. It is made of selected, whole- some oils and fats, such as cot- tonseed oil, soybean oil, corn oil, peanut oil One or more of these, blended according to individual formula, is combined with pure, pasteurized skim milk and salted to taste. Keyko is free from all animal fats. Margarine is made of a blend of hydrogenated and unhydro- genated oils, combined with pas- teurized skim milk which has been ripened to develop a palat- able flavor. The mixture is churn- ed or worked in various ways to develop a smooth, even texture, then automatically packaged. Every process is under rigid san- itary control. By adding 9000 U.S.P. units of vitamin A per pound, marga- rine becomes a "protective food," a dependable source of this im- portant food essential. Margarine is 80% fat and pro- vides about 3300 calories per pound. It is 97 per cent digestible. Shedd Products Company is the only margarine manufacturer li- censed in the state of Michigan, which means that all dealers re- ceive their merchandise fresh daily.

This story, as we now know it, is probably a combination of sev- eral Biblical concepts handed down through tradition.
