Palestine, and
"Whereas His Majesty's government
of Britain in the Balfour Declaration
of 1917 and the government of the
United -States in a unanimous - Con-
gressional resolution of 1922 have en-
dorsed the opening • of Palestine for
Jewish re-settlement, and
"Whereas the _actions of these gov-
ernments in no wise jeopardize the lib-
erties and right of the Palestinian
Arabs,
"Be it resolved by the Unitarian
Fellowship for Social Justice assembled

appeal to the governments of the
United Nations that they act effectively
and swiftly to the end that the dream
of a Homeland in Palestine as cher-
ished by our Jewish brethren be

CHILDREN'S
CORNER

Dear Boys and Girls:
Next Monday is Flag Day.
A Jewish immigrant from
Germany, Benjamin Altheimer,
was responsible for the move-
ment which led to the setting
aside of Flag Day as an Ameri-
can semi-holiday, and we should
feel proud of this fact.
I hope that all our Jewish
families will fly the Flag on
that day. Encourage your par-
ents not to forget this fact.
Vacation days are approach-
ing. Again I urge you not to
forget your Jewish studies, to
follow up Jewish events, and to
train yourselves to be well-
informed Jews.
A pleasant Sabbath to you all.
UNCLE DANIEL.
