Rabbi I. Stollman
Addresses Local
Mizrachi Organization

Rabbi I. Stollman, Congrega-
tion Mishkan Israel, addressed a
meeting of the Mizrachi Organ-
ization of Detroit held at Con-
gregation Beth Jacob Saturday
evening, Oct. 14,
In an impassioned and rousing
speech Rabbi Stollman declared
"There could never be coicentra-
tion camps or a Lublin in Eretz
Isroel. We must cease being
strangers in foreign lands where
we were never safe from degra-
dation and vicious attacks. He
stated that even Orthodox Jewry
has not fully recognized the trag-
edy of our lot in the Diaspora.
Our only hope of being a free
people is to assure our place in
Eretz Isroel. We must not he
satisfied to accept the Succah Ps
our symbol of Eretz Isroel. We
must accept nothing less than
Eretz Isroel itself. Resettlement
of our people in the foreign lands
from which they have been driv-
en is not the solution of our
problem. They must return to
their traditional home. "Regard-
less of what the future holds for
the Jews of the world, only in
Eretz Isroel will there he no con-
centration camps nor Lublin. If
need be, we will be able to fight
and die like heroes and not be
led to our slaughter like lambs."
Irving W. Schlussel, president
of the Mizrachi, announced that
the Organization will celebrate
its 33rd anniversary with a ban-
quet to be held in January, the
exact date and place will be an-
nounced later.
David Zeitoni of Palestine,
representative in the United
States of the Hapoel Hamizrachi,
also addressed the meeting and
read a letter from Rabbi Herzog,
Chief Rabbi of Palestine, recog-
nizing the great work being done
by the Hapoel Hamizrachi in the
establishment in building of col-
onies and in the settlement and
rehabilitation of refugee Jews.

HARRY F. KELLY

for Governor of Michigan

/

Let's NN
Face the Facts \

Good government requires practical men
with executive ability and a strong sense
of public responsibility. Michigan has
found the right combination in the group
of men who, under the leadership of Gov-
ernor Kelly, will administer our State gov-
, :rnment during the next two years.
Your Republican administration has in-
creased Government efficiency, brought the
State
through precarious war years in good
shape, and has carefully planned for post-
war employment, veteran re-employment,
care of the dependent aged and children and
a m titude of other immediate problems.
G ood government has always been hard
to get. Now that we, in Michigan, have it,
let's keep it!
