tration fee or the enrollment dues

Those who cannot join the can-
vassers corps are asked to work
in their own street and in their
own neighborhood. All checks
for Zionist enrollment should be
made out to the Zionist Organ-
ization of Detroit.
In his proclamation designat-
ing Zionist Registration Day,
Rabbi Leon Fram, as president
of the Zionist Organization of
Detroit, states:
"There is hardly a Jew in De-
troit who does . not hope and
pray that the United States gov-
ernment may use its good offices
at the Councils of the United
Nations to establish a Jewish
Commonwealth in Palestine.
Gauge Jewish Interest
"But very few Jews have
thought of registering their will
for the realization of this urgent
need of their people. There is
only one way by which an Am-
erican Jew may register his de-
sire that a Jewish homeland
shall be established in Palestine,
and that is by enrollment in the
Zionist Organization. Our gov-
ernment, as well as the United
Nations, will gauge Jewish in-
terest in Palestine by the size of
the Zionist enrollment. There-
fore, we have set aside the day
of Sunday, July 1, to give every
Jew the opportunity to register."
On Thursday night, July 5, the
annual meeting of the Zionist
Organization of Detroit will be
held in the Prayer Room of Con-
gregation Shaarey Zedek, Chi-
cago at Lawton. The meeting
will be in the nature of a mem-
orial, observance of the annivers-
aries of Theodor Herzl and
Chaim Nachman Bialik and will
be featured by a report on the
results of Zionist Registration
Day and by the annual reports
of the president and the treasur-
er. Rabbi Fram will lecture on
"Theodor Herzl, The Idealistic
Pessimist." The Kevuzah Ivrit
will provide a Bialik program.
