(Continued From Page 1)
At the same time the Commis-
sioner for Jewish Affairs in
Hungary, Dr. Lazlo Endre, an-
nounced over the Budapest radio
that the government has decided
to move Jews from places of
comparative safety to zones ex-
posed to bombing by Anglo-
American fliers. Budapest papers
are demanding that Jews in
Hungary be regarded as hostages
responsible for damages and loss.
of life suffered by Hungarians
during air raids. The papers carry
severe attacks against Hun-
garians who display sympathy
for Jews wearing the yellow
badge.
The Nazi Transocean news
agency rep-orts that an order has
been issued prohibiting Jews to
conduct public worship in syna-
gogues or in any public place.
"The ban on public worship was
instituted in order to prevent un-
controlled gatherings of Jews,"
the report says.

Hungarian Churches Aid
Jews Fleeing Germans
STOCKHOLM (JTA)—Ca tho-
lie and Protestant churches in
Hungary have assisted many
Jews who are fleeing from Nazi
persecution, according to an
article in the Swedish newspaper
Stockholms - Tidningen. T h e
newspaper said its information
came from a traveller who left
Budapest in April.
The traveller reported that at
least 25,000 Jews were deported
the first 10 days of the occupa-
tion. Jews were often kidnaped,
he said, and then completely dis-
appeared. One by one, members
of families were arrested.

Following its two successful
appearances this year at the Ma-
sonic Temple, Halevy Singing So-
ciety continues to meet every
Tuesday at Roosevelt School, Lin-
wood and Burlingame, to wel-
come new members and to plan
for its 20th year which will open
in the Fall, with Dan Frohman
continuing as musical director.

Tentative plans include a ju-
bilee concert with the choral
program consisting of selections
of numbers from the previouS 19
concerts. Former members and
all singers are invited to join the
Halevy chorus and to participate
in this event. Those unable to
to attend Tuesday evening should
phone Mamie Freeman, TO
6-3374.
Remaining sessions of the cur-
rent season will be marked by
special programs, rehearsals and
the election of a new executive
board in June. Halevy members
who have sung at recent gather-
ings of the society are Hyman
Horowitz, tenor,. Rose Golden,
soprano, Mamie Freeman and
Helen Rubin, altos, in duet. Piano
accompaniment was provided by
Bella Ritten Goldberg.

Northwest Area
Plans 2nd Mobile
Blood Bank Visit

Following a tradition set
three months ago, a group of
residents in the northwest sec-
tion of Detroit have arranged
for a Red Cross Mobile Blood
Bank to be at the Mayflower
Church, Curtis and Monica,
from 2 to 6 p. m. Wednesday,
- May 17.
Residents of that section are
urged to respond to the call
for blood donations and to be
at that church during those
hours next Wednesday.
Those desiring further in-
formation are asked to com-
municate with the Jewish

committee sponsoring this
blood donor collection—Mrs.

In view of the dire need for
'blood by the Red Cross, this
call to residents of the north-
, west section is of particular
and urgent importance at this
time.
