MRS. PHILIP J. CUTLER
Mrs. Philip J. Cutler, president
of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the
JeWish National Fund, has issued
an appeal to all Detroit women
to support the fund's current .pro-
ject for land-redemption
estine and for the completion of-
the Nachlath Ladies' Auxiliary
in Palestine.
"Family settlements, by re-
deeming 10 dunams of land, may
be established by Detroiters to
aid in the land-purchasing pro-
gram and in the rescue work of
the Zionist movement in Pales - .
tine," Mrs. Cutler stated.
"Another means of assisting the
fund and of aiding in retching
the Auxiliary's quota of . $100,000
for its Palestine Nachlah is by
inscribing loved ones in the
Golden Book.
"Dunam land purchases and
general contributions are also ac-
cepted.
."This is the time to aid in thiia
great effort. We invite the coop-
eration of all Detroit women."
