Histadrut Acclaims
Resistance of Haganah

NEW YORK (Special)—The Na-
tional Committee for Labor Pal-
estine (Histadrut) ended a two-day
convention Sunday after condemn-
ing "the irresponsible acts of ter-
rorism" of the Irgun and the
Stern faction in Palestine.
The convention acclaimed the
"heroic members of the Haganah"
who, it declared, "were fighting a
courageous, disciplined battle that
the gates of Palestine be opened
to mass immigration and peaceful
colonization of their fellow Jews."
WILL SEEK 5 MILLION
The convention approved a cam-
paign to raise $5,000,000 for Pal-
estin'e in 1947. The Detroit quota
has been set as $150,000.
Detroiters who attended the con-
clave included Louis Levin, Mor-
ris Ross, Dr. Eli Harelick, Sidney
Shevitz, Julius Honeyman, Harry
Schumer, Morris Lieberman, Mi-
chael Taich and Sam Rabinovitz.
The 2,000 delegates, assembled
from 10 countries of the Western
hemisphere, heard Dr. Nahum
Goldmann, member of the Jewish
Agency executive, declare that
"the establishment of a Jewish
State cannot be postponed. If
necessary, we will have to make
territorial concessions in order to
establish a Jewish State in the
near future.
U. S. BACKS POLICY
"We have received the support
of the American government for
this policy. We are attempting to
make an agreement on this basis.
During the last year, reported
Isaac 1Iamlin, national secretary,
a fund raising drive brought over
$2,274,000 in 900 communities in
the U. S. and Canada. '

gation will launch its adult lec-
ture series at 8:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Sponsored by the congregation
and its affiliates, the course will
consist of 10 lectures, to be given
by Rabbi Jacob E. Segal on the
second and fourth Tuesdays of
each month. The central theme of
the course will be "The Jewish
Way of Life," the lectures tracing

ent day meaning of traditional
customs and ceremonies.
