The Record of Our Doctors

A statement issued by the committee for a
Jewish Hospital, headed by Max Osnos, declares:
"Of the 2,000 doctors in Wayne County, ap-
proximately 400 are Jews. Many of them are in
the armed services. North End Clinic, alone, with
a staff of 115 men, is represented in the armed
services by 76 of its doctors and at least 50
more Jewish doctors are now in military service.
This is a record in which the entire Jewish com-
munity can take pride.
"In that spirit, the community will have the
opportunity, as soon as the availability of ma-
terials and general conditions permit, to proceed
with the construction of an arsenal of health as
a special tribute to. our doctors now in - service.
Those doctors, too, who are carrying on the
home front program of health and healing in
behalf of the parents and wives and children of
our servicemen, and in behalf of all the rest of
us in a community at war, deserve our thanks.
This great humanitarian profession, which so
capably assumed two-fold responsibilities, min-
istering to our fighting men on the battlefronts
and to their families . at home, has earned the
tangible appreciation of all of us. A modern hos-
pital — a voluntary, compassionate organization,
prepared to serve all classes and all creeds, is an
expression of the best elements of our democracy.
The hospital will furnish evidence of our whole-
hearted interest in the welfare of the entire
community, and in a special sense, it will
demonstrate our regard for the guardians of our
own health. In serving the doctors, we shall be
serving ourselves as well.

Report New Plan

To Include Zion
In Federation

Proposal Is Being Discussed
In London and Cairo, New
Zionist Group Says

LONDON, (JTA)—A plan to
establish a cantonized. federation
of Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and
Transjordan is now under dis-
cussion in London and in Cairo,
it was reported by the New Zi-
onist Organization;

discussion, the joint boards of the. Jewish Welfare
Federation and Detroit Service Group, have de-
cided that this is the time to proceed.

Suggested Approaches

"Certainly, there are a number of families in
Detroit who are prepared at this time to assume
the leadership in giving for this cause. To these
leading families this message is being addressed.
Whether they turn to their current income, or
to their accumulated wealth; or _ to both, is a
matter for them to decide. Whether they turn to
their corporations, or to their personal income,
or both, likewise is a matter for them to deter-
mine. Whether they give individually, or pool
the participation of every member of the family
in a grand demonstration of total family gen-
erosity in this "once-in-a-lifetime appeal" for
heroic giving, they will know best. It isn't often
that an entire community can rally around a
cause so universal in its humanity as to win the
interest, the sympathy and support of all.
"Every person, every family, knows best its
own situation and how it wants to play. its role
in community life.

A Plan for Giving

"The campaign leaders have recommended a
plan of giving, which will make it convenient
for those who wish to share their good fortune,
to give in amounts commensurate with a $2,000,-
000 need.
"A total pledge at this time irom all possible
sources within a family group—with due regard,
of course, for the benefits of tax .deductions—
should be made when your friend and fellow-
citizen will discuss the matter with you, at your
convenience. In advance of that time, perhaps
with the advice of your tax consultant, perhaps
also after talking it over with your friend to
whom your name will be assigned, please figure
out what is the greatest total amount you can
give between now, and June 30, 1946. That Will
permit you to spread your total gift over three
different tax years, if you wish. - If you find it
more convenient to pay your entire pledge now,
at the time you make it, that certainly would
be welcome, but if you wish to space out the
payments otherwise, you will, naturally, be free
to do so. The main point is that we need to. Secure
the greatest possible amount in pledges now, for
the. entire project, with the payments coming
through as rapidly as - poSsible, so that when the
go signal for construction is given, we shall be
in position -to move forward promptly.
"For some people, the time is never opportune.
For some, all times are opportune, except the
present. For the majority, the time is NOW."

The scheme suggests the immi-
gration into Palestine of 250,000
Jews within 10 years and addi-
tional compensation for the num-
ber of Jews who may leave Pal-
estine during that period.
France and Britain allegedly,
become the guarantors of the
sovereignty of the planned fed-
eration, with the right to veto
foreign agreements endangering
its • independence, as well as ad-
ministrative measures discrimi-
nating against minorities, the
statement said.
It appears, the statement con-
tinues, that the parties interes-
ted in the project agree more
or less on the general conditions

under which the scheme is to
be carried out, but there is still
disagreement as to whether the
Jews of Palestine should be Of-
fered only internal autonomy,
or a state in a partitioned Pales-
tine.
Those of the sponsors of the
project who insist on the estab-
lishment of -a Jewish State in a
partitioned Palestine argue that
such a proposal is likely to se-
cure American approval of the
general plan.

Mr. Allen has especially urged that gifts to
the hospital fund be made as memorials. He
stated:
"There is perhaps no nobler way to perpetuate
the life of a family, or the memory of the de-
parted, than to build an enduring monument of
social service, properly inscribed in the Hall of
Life of the hospital, or among the 'Names That.
Will Live,' and through the the 'Building Me-
morials.' These provide for the establishment cf
units and sections- in the Hospital Building to be
designated by permanent plaques, suitably in-
scribed, according to the donor's wish. An ap-
propriate committee is prepared to confer with
donors and to submit a list of opportunities for
giving, so that those desiring to associate them-
selves and the names of their loved ones with
an institution dedicated to the spirit of public
service, will have an opportunity of applying
contributions to specific needs and to perpetuate
the good that men do."
