SIDNEY GARELICK, who heads a Jewish War Veteran's' post
•
Friday, June 27, 1947
DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE
and a Bnai Brith lodge, is one of Detroit's up and coming
young Jewish leaders. He started early to participate in com-
munal affairs to demonstrate that he already thinks seriously
about the problems facing the Jewish youth in the community.
Service in the army in World War II provided GarOck with
the inspiration to take an active interest in veterans' affairs.
"Veterans" he said, "can get the
4.
benefits they deserve only by
banding together and becoming
an effective voice in the Coun-
try." And Garelick didn't go
into an old established organiza-
tion to carry out this plan. "I
wanted to get together with
fellows of .rny own age who
have common ideas and ideals.
That's why I helped establish
a new group."
With that philosophy, Gave-
lick was instrumental in orga-
nizing the Lh Raymond Block
post which now has 100 mem-
bers. Upon its formation he was
unanimously elected president.

AS A VETERAN who wants
to do his part to curb intoler-
ance, Garelick hopes that more
Jewish servicemen will join
SIDNEY GARELICK
Veterans organizations. "One of
the prime functions of our, group is to combat the defamation
which the Jew constantly flees," he said. "We Jews are in the
minority and for strength we need numbers. Becoming active it\
one of the vet units is one way of building up that unified
strength."
Garelick was born in Brooklyn on Aug. 23, 1921, and c me
' 1 0 Detroit when he was two and one-half years old. He gradu fed
from Central high School in 1938 and then spent two years a
Wayne University. •
In the army, Garelick was a staff sergeant in the 97th division
and taught infantry tactics at numerous army camps. Besides his
• rmy activity he has been a member of the Bnai David chapter
314 of AZA, assistant scoutmaster at Bnai David and vice-president
of the Detroit-Windsor Council.
Garelick and his wife Marian have a seven-month old daugh-
ter, Sheryl Barbara.

AS PRESIDENT of the George Gershwin lodge of Bnai Brith,
3arelick carries the fight against rccgious prejudice further. "It's
Air duty as an organization to promote better relations between
Jews and non-Jews. We have to live in the same communities
ogether so we have to find methods of working in harmony.
With racial fights still prevalent in the world there is great need
or cooperation."
Since he is an automobile parts salesman, Garelick frequently
'ravels out of the city, but he always finds time to give his services
'o the betteiment of Detroit's Jewish youth.

A timely documentary film on
the displaced persons problem,
"Passport to Nowhere," will be
shown at several Detroit theatres
starting this week-end, according
to the Jewish Community Coun-
cil. The Council, in cooperation
with the Michigan Committee on
Displaced Persons, has been work-
ing actively for the enactment of
the Stratton Bill, H. R. 2910,
which would admit 400,000 dis-
placed persons to this country.
"Passport to Nowhere" is one
of the "This Is America" series
produced by RKO' Pathe. The
film was taken by official army
photographers, UNNRA camera-
men, and by a special crew of
RKO Pathe which returned from
Germany on June 1 with the lat-
est material on displaced persons.
In the opinion of the Michigan
Committee on Displaced Persons,
the film is of increased effective-
ness because it is the product of
an impartial motion picture-news-
reel .organization and is not spon-
ored by any interested group.
Its message is important and it
is hoped by the Michigan Com-
mittee that it will be seen by as
many Americans as possible.
Thhe picture is being exhibited
locally at the following theatres:
Fox, Adams, Palms-State, Broad-
way-Capitol and Telenews.

JERUSALEM (JTA)—The ma-
jority of the UN Palestine com-
mittee is inclined at the moment
to favor partition, cantonization
or a UN trusteeship. in that
order, as the best solution for
the Palestine problem, the Jew-
ish Telegraphic Agency learns.
However, it must be stressed
that this is only' a preliminory
decision, based on first impres-
sions and exchanges of bits of
information at informal talks.
It is learned from excellent
authority that the oral and writ-
ten material submitted to the
ommittee in dosed session by
the Palestine Government in-
cluded the following statements:
There is not a single dunam
in the Negev which is not be-
ing cultivated. (There ore
thousands of barren acres in the
Negev. In recent months Jewish
colonists have established 14
settlements there and piped wa-
ter from distant sources, de-
spite obstacles placed in their
way by the government.)
NO CULTIVATION
All of the 1,600,000 dunams
in the northern part of the
Negev are occupied by Bedou-
ins, who are excellent agricul-
turalists, whose use of tractors
is increasing yearly.
LOWDERMILK HIT
The Lowdermilk plan for
electrification a n d irrigation
based on exploitation of the
Jordan River and the Dead Sea
is unworkable because of a prior
concession for use of the Jor-
dan for hydro-electric power
given to the Ruthenberg inter-
ests in the early '20s. and he-
cause it is dependent on the
goodwill of the neighboring Arab
NEW YORK — A complete clo-
thing factory, the MacDane plant
in Baltimore, Md., has been pur-
chased by the Joint Distribution
Committee for overseas shipment
as part of the committee's pro-
gram aimed at the economic re-
covery of Europe's surviving
Jews.
JDC officials in New York re-
vealed that the factory would be
dismantled within the next 45
days and shipped to Europe. Cut-
ting tables, sewing machines,
pressing equipment and other ma-
chinery involved in the purchase
will, when set up, give jobs to
Jewish men and women as well
as turn out 2.000 suits and over-
coats per week, it was stated.
The clothing manufactured will
be distributed among needy Jews
