200 GREEK ORPHANS
ATHENS — A British vessel
carrying 200 Greek Jewish or-
phans has arrived in Palestine.
The vessel also transported 39
"stateless" Jews. Costs of trans-
portation were paid by the JDC.
The JDC has arranged for and
paid the transportation to Pales-
tine of about 4,500 persons in the
first seven months of 1945.
NEW ROME RABBI

Prato, who was Chief Rabbi of
Rome from the middle of 1936
until the end of 1939, has return-
ed to his post. He takes the place
of Dr. Israel Zolli, who became
converted to Catholicism. Prof.
Prato resigned the Chief Rabbi-
nate of Rome after the Mussolini
government adopted an anti-Jew-
ish policy and came to Palestine
to live.

The facts about the
ELECTRIC APPLIANCE
SITUATION
People come into our offices—and to department stores, hard-
ware stores and other appliance dealers—with one question
uppermost in their minds: "When can I get a new electric iron?
Or an electric clock? Or a washer? I understand they're being
made again. And I've seen them advertised in the magazines."
Here are the facts about' the electric appliance situation. Manu-
facturers are resuming production of a limited number of
appliances. Until they can reconvert their plants to full
peacetime operation, the number built during the first few
months will be small.
The demand will far exceed the supply. At least at first, what
appliances are available will be spread so thin among the
various appliance dealers that there will be very few on any
one dealer's shelves. It may be a year before the supply is 01:m-
aul—perhaps longer. The first appliances released by manu-
facturers will go to department stores, hardware stores, home
appliance shops, etc.—dealers whose very existence depends
upon the sale of merchandise. The Detroit Edison Company—
because it handles appliances only incidentally to its principal
business of selling electric service—will be among the last to
get them. Our policy has always been "See your dealer first."
Until the dealers' shelves are stocked, we shall have very feu ,
electric appliances for sale.

It is a coincidence not without
significance that the Hebrew Un-
ion College prepares to celebrate
its seventieth anniversary just
when, through the workings of
the United Nations Charter, man-
kind is about to step over the
threshold into a new and better
world. As Jeremiah, the prophet,
taught, 70 years marks a cycle
in Jewish historical experience,
the transition from independent
existence, through conquest and
subjection, to restoration and re-
newed vision, hope and faith.
Now, at the end of 70 years,
it seems as if something of the
vision, hope and faith, of the im-
mortal founder of the College,
Isaac M. Wise, has been fulfilled.
For he envisaged confidently a
better, a more just and righteaus,
and a happier world.
He envisaged even more, that
this new world and new society
would represent the realization
of Judaism's millenial dream and
70 years.
We share eagerly in the uni-
versal hope for the dawn of a
better world, a world in which
men and nations may dwell to-
gether in unity. In such a world
our brethren of the household of
Israel in all lands may well find
surcease of oppression and sor-
row, and may again walk proudly
as the eternal, though no longer
the suffering servant of God.
In this new age and this ,,ew
and enlightened world, we look
forward confidently and eagerly
to a deepening of the Jewish spir-
it and an intensification of Jew-
ish life, especially here in Amer-
ica.
We know that through the cir-
cumstances of history this Jewish
community of America has ba-
come the largest, most potent,
most responsible Jewish commun-
ity of the entire world, and that
in very large measure the destiny
of Judaism and of the Jewish
people is in our hands. This re-
sponsibility we accept humbly but
willingly and with a feeling of
reconsecration to God and Hi s
service.
Please remember that your dealer's supply will be short. He is
anxious to sell you the appliances you want, but he can obtain
ever suits you best .. .

would be achieved in no small de-
gree, through the influence of Ju-
daism's teaching and through the
devotion of Israel's sons and
daughters. And who dare say that
Judaism's teachings throughout
the ages have been fruitless, its
spirit barren, its service vain, its
testimony of God and His way of
life unheeded, and that without
Judaism and without the people,
Israel, its bearer, the world would
stand where it stands today?
ISRAEL HAS SUFFERED
Truly throughout the ages, but
especially through these last 13
years, Israel has been the suffer-
ing servant of God and of hu-
manity, through whose faithful-
ness under trial and through
whose inexhaustible message, the
world has in some measure come
at last to cherish a realistic hope
of salvation.
This hope and faith of Judaism,
this hope and faith of Isaac M.
Wise, breathed by him into this
College, we, his disciples both of
the person and of the spirit, its
alumni, together with its faculty,
its governors and its present stu-
denty body, reaffirm now, after
