Atom Pioneer
ho pes Discovery
Will End War

NEW YORK (WNS) — Coop-
eration betwen nations for future
,ontrol of the atomic bomb was
arged last week by Dr. Lise Melt-
r, the woman scientist whose
ne
search
aided in its develop-
re
ment, in a radio interview with
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Dr. Meitner spoke from her
home in Leksand, Sweden, the
country to which she fled after
being exiled from Germany be-
cause of her Jewish origin. Mrs.
Roosevelt was in the NBC news-
room.
Mrs. Roosevelt asked Dr. Meit-
ner if she realized, when she
heard of the bomb being drop-
ped, whether it might bring the
war to a close.
"Women have a great respon-
sibility and they are obliged to
try, so far as they can, to pre-
vent another war," the scientist
replied. "I hope that the con-
struction of the atom , bomb not
only will help to finish this awful
war, but that we will be able,
too, to use this great energy that
has been released for peaceful
work."
Asked by Mrs. Roosevelt how
she believed the new force should
be controlled, Dr. Meitner re-
plied:
"I hope that by the coopera-
tion of several nations it will be
possible to come to better rela-
tions between all the nations and
to prevent such horrible things as
we have had to go through in
the last few years."
Mrs. Roosevelt congratulated
Dr. Meitner and said she hoped
the United States would see her
some day, "just as we saw Ma-
dame Curie."

The World Rabbinical Congress,
because of its inherent Rabbini-
cal nature, is not part of the
merger and will function as a
separate, independent until spon-
sored and directed by the Presi-
dency of the Union of Orthodox
Rabbis of the United States and
Canada. This Congress will be the
first modern attempt to create a
World Jewish spiritual authority.

families peace came with a note
of poignant sadness, for more
than 225 Detroit Jewish soldiers,
sailors and marines had given
their lives for their country. It is
estimated that there are nearly
10,000 Jewish servicemen from
the Detroit area.
The outstanding Detroit Jew-
ish hero was Lt. Raymond Zuss-
man, winner of the Congressional
Medal of Honor, the highest mili-
tary award in the land. Hundreds
of other Detroit Jewish heroes
won awards for bravery and
achievement. (His achievement
was described over a nationwide
radio network last week in which
his family participated.)
The Detroit Jewish community
was active in every phase of war
work and bought hundreds of
millions of dollars worth of bonds
and contributed millions to the
Red Cross and war funds. Every
Jewish congregation, every group
in Detroit has its roll of honor.
There wasn't a Jewish home
that was untouched by the war.

Temple Beth El is now pre-
Paring for the High Holy Days.
The services in the Main Audi-
torium will be conducted by Dr.
B. Benedict Glazer, who will also
preach the sermons.
The musical program will be
rendered by the Temple Quartet
under the direction of Jason H.
Tickton. Admission to the Main
Auditorium will be for members
and their families only.
The Holy Day Services will be
open without charge to all Serv-
ice Men and Women. No cards of
admission will be required for
those who present themselves in
uniform.

Agree Memorial Society, of
