Congregations, Symphony,
Franklin Hills Aid Drive
Jewish Organizations Mobilized in bth War Loan; Bond
Buyers to Be Admitted to Concert; Temples Israel
and Beth El, Shaarey Zedek Push Campaign
Congregations, landsmanshaften, women's organizations,
schools and youthgroups are mobilizing their forces to spur
efforts for the Sixth War Loan.
As in past campaigns, Henry Wineman and Irving W.
Blumberg again head an important division in the campaign
and they will have the cooperation of committees f r o m
Temple Beth El, Temple Israel, Congregation Sharey Zedek
and many other groups whose teams have been organized to
sell a record number of War Bonds.
The team headed by Mr. Wineman and Mr. Blum-
berg—originally known as Team 7 and now listed as
Team A—has been highly praised for its achievements.
At a recent organizational meeting, Ed Hoover of the
U. S. Treasury Department praised the Wineman-Blum-
berg team as being exemplary in its activities and in its
attainment of successful results.
Franklin Hills Country Club again will take an active
part in the drive, with Jerry Tobias of Allen Industries and
Max Zivian of Detroit Steel Co. as co-chairmen.
Admit Bond Purchasers to Symphony
Maj. Harold Allen is chairman of the Temple Beth El
drive.
Of particular interest in the present • drive is the an-
nouncement made this week by Leonard N. Simons that the
Detroit Symphony Orchestra concert on Saturday night, Dec.
2, will be devoted to the 6th War Loan.
Mr. Simons announces that every purchaser of a bond
will be entitled to a seat at this concert — the tickets to be
distributed in the order in which the applications will arrive.
. Checks are to be made out to J. L. Hudson Co. and to be
mailed to the 6th War Loan Committee, care of the Detroit
Symphony Orchestra at the Masonic Temple.
Chilean Pianist, Met Star on Program
Bond purchasers will be entitled to as many tickets as
the number of bonds they purchase.
The guest artists at this concert will be Claudio Arrau,
famous Chilean pianist, and Josephine Antoine, coloraturo
soprano of thel Metropolitan Opera Co.
The concert will commence at 8:30 p. m. sharp, the first
half to be broadcast on a coast-to-coast radio hook-up.
Frank Isbey, chairman of the Michigan bond drives, has
taken occasion to commend the Jewish groups of Detroit for
their efforts during war loan campaigns.
At a rally of Arlazar off Branch of Jewish National Work-
ers' Alliance, Mr. Isbey especially commended the work of
Harry Schumer, who is in charge of bond drives for the Far-
band and other groups.
The 6th War Loan officially opens next Monday and will
continue for a month.

Sorbonne Greets
Returning Jewish
Students, Teachers
PARIS, (JTA) — Jewish stu-
dents, expelled from the Sor-
bonne during the German occu-
pation, were greeted with cheers
when they returned to their
classes at the opening of the new
semester. A rousing welcome was
given Jewish professors who re-
turned.
Jewish students are being re-
admitted to all colleges through-
out France. The majority fought
with the French maquis during
the occupation, and many of
them were imprisoned by the
Gestapo.
Among the Jewish professors
who returned to chairs at the
Sorbonne are Gustave Cohen,
professor of literature, and Louis
Halphen, professor of history.
Some Jewish professors are still
inactive—although they are being
paid—because their posts 'were
filled during their exile.
Pointing out that repeal of
anti-Jewish laws has not yet
been officially announced, the
article declared it would not be
easy to face the economic and
financial consequences. "Regula-
tions prohibiting the practice of
medicine and law by Jews can
easily be rescinded," the article
said, "but would those concerned
be able to resume their profes-
sions where they left off?"

Supervise Transportation of $250,000 Worth of
Food, Clothing to Destitute Survivors
JERUSALEM, (JTA)—Charles Passman, of the Joint
Distribution Committee, has left for Teheran by plane to ar-
range the transportation of food and clothing to needy Jews
in liberated Poland. The first trans -port, valued at $250,000,
will leave the JDC warehouses in Teheran within the next
week, he said.
Dr. Emil Sommerstein, head of
the Jewish Relief Committee in
Lublin, was informed by cable
that more relief supplies will be
forthcoming. In the • meantime,
he was asked that his committee
take all possible steps to assure
expeditious transportation and to
arrange that no custom duties are
charged when the supplies enter
Russia in transit to Poland.
Second Big Shipment
To Lublin Planned
NEW YORK — Fifty tons of
food and clothing valued at $250,-
000 are being sent to Lublin for
distribution to Jews in liberated
areas of Poland, the American
JDC announced this week.
Another shipment of food,
clothing and medical supplies also
valued at $250,000 is to be sent
from the U. S., making a total of
$500,000 at this time.
The action resulted from an
exchange of cables between the
JDC and Dr. Sommerstein who
co-operated with the JDC as a
co-worker for many years prior
to the outbreak of the war.
10,000 Packages Sent
Since 1942 the JDC has been
conducting a program of material
aid to thousands of Polish Jew-
ish refugees in Soviet Asia
through an effective system of
packages individually addressed.
At the present time, 10,000 pack-
ages are sent to them from
Teheran each month. Each pack-
age will keep a family three
months. Names and addresses
of the recipients were, made
available to the JDC by families
of the refugees and organizations
concerned with their welfare.
The materials were purchased
in India, Palestine, Egypt and
South Africa and are shipped.
from Teheran, where the JDC's
stockpiles are located. In recent
months these were augmented by
the purchase of $480,000 worth of
Lend-Lease supplies from U. S.
authorities in the Middle East.
For its package program in 1944
the JDC has allotted $1,200,000.
Joins UNRRA Mission
The first opportunity for an
on-the-scene survey by the JDC
will become possible with the
entry in Poland of the UNRRA
delegation soon to arrive. there.
Jacob Trobe, a member of the
overseas staff of the JDC, is in-
cluded in the UNRRA mission to
Poland.
Dr. Joseph J. Schwartz, JDC
European chairman, has left the
U. S. by clipper for London to
resume direction of European ac-
tivities. He had been in this
country since August, consulting
with JDC officers and executives
regarding immediate and postwar
plans for the rescue, relief and
rehabilitation of Jews in Europe.
Assist Alliance Schools
It is estimated that $1,000,000
will be required to provide em-
ergency relief in Romania.

Distribution Committee has al-
located 2,000,000 francs for main-
tenance of the schools in Morocco
