itor of Independent Jewish . Press
Service, as a Message of En-

problem of discrimination.
Mr. Philip Slomovitz
Editor, The Jewish News
2111 Penobscot Building
Detroit, Michigan
Dear Phil:
It is a pleasure to extend New Year
greetings to the loyal Americans in the ranks
of Jewry, through the columns of a splendid
new publication edited by an old friend.
President Roosevelt, in stating the
Four Freedoms we are fighting for in this
war, said in a new way what the Jewish people
have said for centuries: that all men are
free and equal before God.
In the gigantic task before the
people of Michigan--the job of furnishing
one-third of the weapons of victory, of send-
ing many of their sons and husbands to the
fighting fronts, of each person contributing
in War Bonds and services to the needs of
total war--in this all-inclusive job, Jew
and non-Jew work and fight side by side, in
mutual respect and purpose.
Very sincerely yours.
GOVERNOR.
Congressman
Dingell Offers
greetings, Hope for Victory
It seems a bit ironic during
this Holy season to extend greet-
ings and good wishes when the
world is afire and when human-
ity, more especially the unfor-
tunate Jews, gropes battered and
bleeding,Ainto death.
But there is a brighter side
perceptible beyond this mad and
cataclysmic struggle which
threatens all religion, civiliza-
tion and humanity. We can see,
if we but raise our eyes from
the littered and profaned ground
and look toward the horizon, for
the legions of A merica are on
the march. They are eager to
liberate the enslaved peoples of
the earth and anxious to relieve
them from the forged German
yoke. Yes, to obliterate for all
time this sinful imposition of a
godless ideology of racial supe-
riority centered in Pan-German-
ism. America and her Allies will
not falter nor fail in this gi-
gantic undertaking. The fight
will continue if needs be until
the last vestige of oppression,
hatred, paganism and German
sophistry are destroyed upon the
smoldering ruins of what might
have been a happier land.
Therefore, let us, Jew and Gen-
tile alike, offer a prayer as we
break bread together, that the
God of all shall give us fortitude
MRS. ROOSEVELT
I am very glad indeed to have
this oportunity to send a mes-
sage to the young Jewish women
through the medium of the In-
dependent Jewish Press Service.
The problems which t h e
young Jewish women face in
this crisis are similar to those
of other minority groups, while
at the same time, they face the
problems which face all the
women of this country. We have
in this country, worked for
many years on a great adven-
ture, the experiment in Democ-
racy. We have not as yet
achieved a perfected govern-
ment or a completely satisfying
way of life for all of our peo-
ple, but our way of life seems
to us to provide the best means
of progress.
Flint, Mich., extend heartiest
congratulations to Mr. Philip
Slomovitz and his staff for the
tremendous success of The Jew
ish News. Already Mr. Slomovitz
has created a Jewish newspaper
for Michigan Jewry that is far
beyond our expectations. We
consider it the best of its kind in
America. We salute Mr. Slomo-
vitz on this New Year. May you
derive as.- much Nachas from
Michigan Jewry as it has de-
rived from you. May the New
Year have for you and your
House health, happiness and
peace.
