Lerner Blames Military Clique
for Truman Turnabout on Zion

Charging that a small military
eabal controlled American for-
eign policy, Max Lerner, his-
torian and editorial director of
PM, labeled President Truman
a tool of this group when he
agreed to reversal of the Pales-
tine partition plan.
Lerner spoke at the annual
meeting of the Jewish Welfare
Federation Sunday.
HONOR IS SCORNED
"This clique," he said, "was
not concerned with justice, his-
torical commitments or Ameri-
can honor but only with oil and
strategy. They had the convic-
tion they could not take a
chance with Arab feudal lords."
Declaring that world peace
can only be preserved by a
United Nations with world au-
thority, Lerrier ridiculed the
military leaders' belief that
trusteeship would strengthen
American security.
9 NAMED TO BOARD
Nine new members were nam-
ed to the board of governors of
the Federation. They include
Sidney Alexander, Joseph Bern-
stein, Irwin I. Cohn, Rabbi Leon
Fram, Mrs. Maurice A. Landau,
Henry Meyers, Morris Schaver.
Ben L. Gilberste;n and Leonard
N. Simons.

Julian Krolik, Federation
president, who presided, gave
his annual report.
Ile revealed that practically
nothing has been done in re-
cent years for capital expendi-
tures for local needs in view of
"our feeling of maximum obli-
gation to the needs of the Unit-
ed Jewish Appeal."
LOCAL NEEDS LISTED
He listed as major needs of
the community the construction
of a Community Center branch
in the Dexter and northwest
areas to cost $500,000; improve-
ments and additions in the Fresh

Air Camp; and additional funds
for the Jewish Hospital.

The 1948 campaign, he said,
provides for an initial $200,000
for the Dexter branch center.
"One of the things of which
our Detroit Jewish Community
may well feel proud," Krolik
commented, "is the absence of
any vested rights in any one
group to run the community.
"Each year, and especially this
year, has produced a group of
devoted, capable new leaders
who pick up responsibilities
where the older ones have left
off and carry them on to greater
heights."

pect that the worker will be
calling on him within a short
time.

lar contribution and that of the

Jews of Warsaw to Unveil
Ghetto Martyrs' Memorial

WARSAW (WNS)—A monu-
ment to the Jewish martyrs who
died in the revolt of the War-
saw Ghetto five years ago is to
be unveiled here on April 19
at a service to be attended by
delegations representing Jewish
organizations from various coun-
tries.
Similar ceremonies will be
held at Oswiecim and Treblinka,
sites of the liquidation of most
of the millions of Jews who
were murdered by the Nazis.
The Warsaw ceremony will be
attended by a six-man delega-
tion from Palestine. The delega-
tion will bring soil from each of
the Jewish colonies in Palestine
and comingle it with the soil
on which the monument was
built.
Special commemorative tablets
will be set up in the crematoria
of Oswiecim and Treblinka and
along the railway station in
Warsaw, from which hundreds
of thousands of Jews were de-
ported to death camps.
All letters leaving the War-
saw post office on April 19 will
bear special stamps.
To accommodate the thousands
of Jewish survivors in Poland
desiring to attend the unveiling,
railway officials will sell 5,000
tickets at a reduced rate. The
test of the monument was 28,-

000 zlotys, of which 10,000 was
contributed by the government
and 18,000 by the Jewish popu-
lation of Poland.
At the same time it was re-
ported this week that the Jew-
ish community in Poland has
raised 80,000,000 zlotys ($209,000)
for the Jewish defense forces in
.
Palestine.

This mobile dental hospital, destined for Kupat Cholim,
medical organization in Palestine, for use by Jewish defend-
ers, will be exhibited in Detroit this weekend under the
auspices of Branch 552, Jewish National Workers' Alliance
of Detroit (Farband). The hospital, to be brought here from
Cleveland by Drs. Louis and Harry Goldblatt, former U. S.
navy men, is completely self-sufficient, having its own water
and electricity and an air-conditioning system. In time of
emergency, it can be used as a first aid station. The hospital
will be on display from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday, in front
of the Hotel Statler, and from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m., Sunday, in
front of Central High School. It will tour the northwest
section from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Sunday, equipped with a land
speaker. The above hospital will be the first to be sent to
Palestine from America.

"The State to be established
will be ruled through justice,
freedom and equality for all in-
habitants, regardless of race or
creed.
"Faced by the prospect of irn ,
minent chaos in Palestine as a
result of the policy puns ,:dby
the mandatory power in the
course of laying down the man-
date, we have determined that
the Jewish government shall
then be established to ensure
orderly succession of power in
the Jewish State.

offer peace and friendship.
"We desire to build our State
in common with the Arabs as
equal citizens. Our freedom and
theirs, and their future and ours,
rest on a common endeavor."
