Full Support The drive for a Jewish hos- pital in Detroit is under way. It was officially opened last Monday at a luncheon meeting of the Jewish Hospital Associa- tion. In the coming weeks De- troit Jews will be asked to con- tribute a major share of the $2,500,000 which the Jewish hos- pital will receive from the funds contributed to the Greater De- troit Hospital Fund. The meeting, which was under the chairmanship of Max Osnos, president of the Association, was addressed by Dr. Charles F. Wilinsky, president of the Amer- ican Hospital Association and ex- ecutive director of Beth Israel Hospital of Boston. Dr. Wilinsky emphasized that a hospital is not only a place where the sick can be cared for, but has an important place in the overall community picture. The education and training of doctors, medical research and medical progress, he said, largely depend upon the existence of well-equipped and well-staffed hospitals. A community which helps build hospitals really helps itself. The doctor's main task, Dr. Wilinsky said, is to prevent dis- ease and to find ways for im- proving the chances of a longer and happier life. Such a task can be performed adequately only if hospitals and research centers are at the disposal of the medical profession. The Jewish community in particular, the speaker stated, has every reason to further a hospital project, not only in order to give Jewish interns a possibility to acquire experi- ence, but also to set an ex- ample to the greater com- munity. Pointing to the existing Jew- ish hospitals in Boston, Baltimore, Pittsburg hand St. Louis, Dr. Wilinsky said that the plan of a Jewish hospital in Detroit need not remain a dream but will be- come a reality if the project is supported by the entire Jewish community. Plans for the 200-bed hospital are already drawn up, it was stated by Osnos, who also an- nounced that the Greater De- troit Hospital Fund has raised so far $17,000,000.

We must take our partner- ship in the Detroit, drive ser- iously, Sobeloff said, and prove to the community that we are willing to share the burdens of the entire project. It will be necessary for Detroit Jews, he added, to conduct this cam- paign as if it were an inde- pendent campaign. Weekly report meetings will be held starting Nov. 29 in order to keep campaign workers in- formed about the progress of the campaign. G.N.

COHEN A bouncing, singing, joking, 58- year-old grandfather had them rolling in the aisles last Tuesday evening as he proved once again that he is still the grand old man of show business. The ever youthful Eddie Can- tor whirled through a two-hour one-man show before a capacity house of 5,000 at Masonic Audi- torium to put the Bnai Brith women's fund-raising and mem- bership campaign over its goal of $100,000. Singing the songs that he made famous during his 41 years in show business, Eddie recounted his rise in the theater, radio and television. He told the audience of his early acquaintance with Ziegfeld, Durante, Will Rogers, Irving Berlin, Marilyn Miller, Al Jolson, Groucho Marx and other greats in the tinseled world. Cantor closed his show with a moving story of what he had observed during his recent visit to Israel. He described the heroic sac- rifices that the Israelis are mak- • RATES ANYONE CAN AFFORD! i $4-5-6 per per room For December 1 to 21st $6. 7.8 ,:,!. r d ooy m. For December 21-Jan.

He called upon Detroit Jews to make a maximum contribu- tion to the next fund drive to aid Israel. In a press interview, Cantor expressed dissatisfaction with the efforts of American Jewry to date. "I haven't seen anyone do without another mink coat or new car in order to help the needy overseas," he told the Chronicle. He praised the cultural level of Israel and said that he consid- ered the Israel Orchestra better than any in the United States. "But they need food, blankets and housing more than cultural things right now," he added. Cantor left Detroit Wednesday to rehearse for his radio and television shows. In January he will assume chairmanship of a special board to aid the United Jewish Appeal campaign.
