days.

We, the undersigned, whole-heartedly support and indorse the
return of HENRY S. SWEENY to the Detroit 4 Common Council be-

cause of his outstanding public record which includes: 3 years' mili-

tary service in World War I, 6 years service as Assistant Attorney

General of Michigan, 6 years as Judge of the Recorders Court in

Detroit, and 8 years' member of the Detroit Common Council.

In addition to his fine record as a public servant, lie likewise

performed many other valuable services to the community, not the

least of which is the following:

I) He was Chairman of the Committee which drafted and presented to the Detroit
Common Council an F.E.P.C. Ordinance; and fought vigorously for a State Fair Em-

.

ployment Practice Commission.

2) He has advocated and strongly supported the Jewish struggle for a national homeland.

3) He worked for the Stratton Bill to admit 400,000 Displaced Persons into the United
States; and sought by Resolution and personal meetings, to get the State Bar of

Michigan to support the Bill.

4) As a member of the Common Council, he led the fight which broke zoning restric-
tions—thus permitting, when.ready, the construction of a JEWISH HOSPITAL.

We personally urge YOUR support of HENRY S. SWEENY, and respectfully solicit your
this progressive, humane and eperienced public servant
vote on November 4th to return
to the Common Council.
