Pisgah Lodge to
Hold Special
Midweek Meeting
A special meeting of Pisgah
Lodge No. 34, B'nai B'rith will
be held in the main auditorium
of the Jewish Community Center
next Wednesday night at 8:30
In response to many requests
as a pre-Passover treat another
great night of movies has
been scheduled featuring a
surprise feature and interesting
short subjects including the latest
release of war films. This meet-
ing is for members and their
male friends and there is no
admission charge. Another fea-
ture of this meeting will be a
talk on subversive forces in our
midst today by a personality who
has knowledge of these groups.
Pisgah Lodge meets regularly
the first and third Monday night
of each month, according to Ru-
dolph Meyersohn, president of
the lodge. The next regular
fleeting was originally planned
for Monday, April 19. As this
night is the first Sedar night,
the meeting scheduled for the
third Monday in April has been
cancelled and this meeting of
April 14th arranged in its stead.
Mr. Meyersohn further states
that Max Blumenthal, chairman
of Pisgah Lodge's entertainment
committee promises the same type
of films which have made Pisgah's
Movie Nights popular. Those who
have attended our previous movie
nights know that a real treat
is in store for them.
Last Monday night Pisgah
Lodge held its business meeting
for the month of April and the
first group of applications •e-
ceived in the membership drive
to honor B'nai B'rith's hundredth
year were elected to membership.
Isadore Starr, chairman of the
membership committee, was very
gratified at the early returns.
He announced that special teams
had been organized by the new
members of the lodge who were
members of Pisgah's 85th anni-
versary class. These new mem-
bers are working as a unit to
secure new members during this
drive to honor B'nai B'rith's cen-
tennial. Teams have also been
organized by the regular mem-
bership as well as by Pisgah
Bowling League. This d r i v e,
which will be of short duration,
will culminate in a public initia-
tion during the month of May.
Any male Jew of good moral
character, 21 years or older, is
eligible for -membership in B'nai
B'rith. Members who are called
into service have their dues
waived for the duration. Mr.
Starr states that any reader who
is not approached during this
drive and desires to affiliate him-
self with America's oldest and
largest fraternal and service or-
ganization can secure an appli-
cation or have a representative
call upon him by calling the
lodge secretary's office, 606 Mur-
phy Bldg., CHerry 3372.
Max Goldhoff, chairman of
Pisgah's War Service Committee,
announces that the lodge is join-
ing in the Blood Donor Week to
be sponsored, starting May 17,
by the Greater Detroit B'nai
B'rith Council.

this meeting a nominating com-
mittee will be appointed for our
coming election of officers.
The first meeting in May will

paign. It has been suggested

arranged, each member bring a

worker, has returned from her
vacation, and reports two cases
satisfactorily hospitalized and
disposed of, and also 2 new cases
pending.

tion and a playlet, written and

REPORT 39,227 REFUGEES ENTERED
PALESTINE IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS
LONDON, (Palco•)—The to-
tal number of refugees who en-
tered Palestine between April 1,
1939, and February' 18, 1943, is
39,227, it was reported by Rich-
ard Law, Parliamentary Under-
secretary for Foreign Affairs, in
the House of Commons yester-
day. Mr. Law revealed that ap-
proximately 32,234 Polish refu-
gees had been or were in the
process of being received by the
British Empire exclusive of Pal-
estine and excepting all persons
who joined the armed forces. No
differentiation had been made be-
tween Jewish and other Polish
refugees, he stated.
The Undersecretary added that
approximately 78,000 refugees
from Germany, Austria and
Czecfhoslovakia were in Great
Britain at the outbreak of the
war and that since the beginning
of hostilities 66,000 refugees
from enemy-occupied countries
have come into the United King-
dom.
This information was elicited
in response of a query by Regi-
nand Sorensen, Laborite M.P.,
who asked for a reliable esti-
mate of the number of Jewish
political refugees from Poland
and elsewhere who had escaped
before the war and the number
who had escaped since the out-
break. of hostilities; the number
of Polish Jews who died since
the beginning of the war through
Nazi treatment, and the expendi-
ture of the Government to assist
the refugees.
Mr. Law, speaking for the For-
eign Secretary, said that the
answer was long and detailed and
that he would therefore circulate
it in the form of an official re-
port. Mr. Sorensen asked if the
report would give any indication
about guarantees to neutral coun-
tries covering the cost of main-
taining the refugees. Mr. Law
replied: "I must ask you to
wait." Miss Eleanor Rathbone,
Sabbath Observance
League to Honor
Mothers and Daughters
Independent, inquired: "Will the
report give the definition of a
refugee, since the word is rather
vague?" Mr. Law answered tha.
the report would do its best to
answer the question, which was
complicated.
He was unaware, Mr. Law de-
clared, that the Polish people had
left Poland as refugees before
the war. After the invasion,
there had been a very consider-
able movement of the refugees in
various directions. For further
details, he referred the Members
to pages 3-5 of the 1942 report
of the League of Nations' High
Commissioner for Refugees. As
regards information in the pos-
session of the Government as to
the number who had escaped from
Poland since the war, he said:
"I can only refer to the figures
on Polish refugees already or in
the process of being received by
the British Empire."
"It is obviously impossible," he
asserted, "to state the number of
Polish Jews murdered by the . Ger-
mans since September, 1939, but
the figure is put at about 1,-
000,000.
"The expenditure of the Gov-
ernment to date with respect to
assistance to refugees since Oc-
tober, 1939, amounts to £1,210,-
000. This figure does not in-
clude the expenditure incurred by
the Ministry of Health, inas-
much as no separate record is
kept of the cost of the work of
this department with respect to
the accommodation and support
of alien, as distinct from Brit-
ish, refugees."
