shiva. "The Navarodok Central Yeshiva Beth Joseph" of
Brooklyn, New York, which was transplanted in this
country over three years ago. Prior to the present world
conflict, Rabbi Jofen was the Dean of over 70 Beth Joseph
Yeshivoth in Poland. At the present time only Navaro-
dok Beth Joseph Yeshivoth and one in Gateshead, England
(not including the great Refugee Yeshiva of Brooklyn),
remain in existence, while hundreds of Beth Joseph Schol-
ars are stranded in the many refugee countries of Europe.

The Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Brook-
lyn Yeshiva, Rabbi Hershel Stollman, is in Detroit for
over a week. He arranged appeals for the Yeshiva in most
of Detroit Jewish Congregations where he received the
utmost cooperation of the officers and members.

We

appeal to the officers and members of the Congrega-
tions where appeals have not yet been arranged, to dedicate
this Saturday to appeals for this Sacred Yeshiva. and to
announce our invitation to the M'lava Malka from the
pulpit.
