Mayors in 300 American Cities Urged to Ban Race Issue from Political Campaign NEW YORK (WNS) — The mayors of 300 cities in the U.S., with populations of more than 300,000 persons, were called on today by the National Conference of Christians and Jews to issue a proclamation urging political leaders in their communities to ban the injection of racial and religious issues in the current campaign. The conference asked the may- ors to issue such statements dur- ing the week of Oct. 8. The May- or of Baltimore has already agreed to do so, it was learned. In a letter to the mayors, the Women's Aux. Jewish Home for Aged to Hold Membership Tea At an executive board meet- ing held on Thursday, Oct. 12 at 1:30 p. in. at the home of Mrs. George Koven of LaSalle Friday, October 13, 1944 DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE and The Legal Chronicle Page 8 Rev. Dr. Everett R. Clinchy, Con- ference president, said: "The campaign managers of the two major political parties, Robert Hannegan and Herbert Brownell, Jr., on Sept. 14 com- mitted their parties against the injection of racial and religious animosities into the current po- litica I campaign. "This was an unprecedented event in our political history but it. is essential that the influence of all American leaders be exert- ed to keep this campaign free from hate and bigotry. "We now turn to you and to all other members of the U.S. Conference of Mayors for assist- ance. We are confident that a proclamation along these lines from you to the people of your city would prove to be . of im- measurable significance. if you will do so you will be making a vital contribution to the integrity and security of the American system of government."

The observance of the 18th annual education month, which began with the month of Tishri, will soon come to a close, which means that the formal observ- ance will end, but the work which was begun by the United Hebrew Schools during this month will be continued throughout the year. The gist of this project is to constantly remind the parents that they owe their children a Jewish education — a knowledge of the fate, the history and the culture of their people, and the process of reminding the parents of their greatest and most sac- red duty will be continued. Last Saturday evening, a brief radio talk, in Yiddish, was de- livered over Station WJLB, Alt- man's Hour, by Joseph Haggai, a member of the staff of the United Hebrew Schools. The fol- lowing Sunday morning, Joseph Colten, an alumnus of the school and a member of the hoard of the United Hebrew Schools, was the speaker.. Saturday evening, Oct. 14, Solomon Kasdan, prin- cipal of the Rose Sittig Cohen Branch of the United Hebrew Schools, will be the speaker on Altman's Hour. The Hebrew Teachers' Organi- zation of the United Hebrew Schools is ready with the publi- cation of a Parent-Teachers' Bul- letin, in Yiddish and in English. The bulletin contains a good deal of information about the schools, and many excellent articles on the problem of education of our children in the United States. This bulletin will be mailed to all the members of the schools, as well as to the parents of pupils attending the school.
