Balfour Ball May Provide
Setting for Gala Celebration

Zionist Organization's Annual Affair at Statler, Nov. 10;
Favorable Action by Attlee on Truman's Appeal
to Touch Off Great Victory Display

At the meeting of the Zionist
Organization of Detroit on Mon-
day evening, at the Shaarey
Zedek, Rabbi Leon Fram; presi-
dent, made this statement urg-

of rebellion and strife, the Bal-
four Ball will perform another
function—the Jewish people of
Detroit will gather to reenforce
their morale in the struggle for
justice for the Jewish people."

Harry Cohen, chairman of the
Balfour Ball committee, has ask-
ed all workers to strive for the
success of the Ball. He. notes the
example of Dr. Joseph Starman
who has been selling patron
tickets by the. hundreds. Dr.
Starman, member of the board of
the Zionist Organization of De-
troit,. was last year the leading
membership campaigner for the
organization, having personally
enrolled 100 new members for
Zionism

Proceeds of the Ball go to sup-
port the work of the Zionist Or-
ganization of Detroit. A feature
will be the dancing of the fam-
ous Palestinian folk dance—the
"Nora" by a group of local Zion-
ist youth. -

DR. JOSEPH STARMAN

ing strong community support
of the annual Balfour Ball to
be held at Hotel Statler on Sat-
urday night, Nov. 10:

"When the leading Jewish fam-
ilies of Detroit gather for the
Balfour Ball at the Hotel Statler
on Nov. 10, they may find them-
selves celebrating a great vic-
tory for the Jewish Homeland
in Palestine. By Nov.- 10, Presi-
dent Truman's demand of Great
Britain, that 100,000 of the dis-
placed Jews of Europe be admit-
ted into Palestine, may have
been satisfied. In this event, the
Balfour Ball will be one of the
most joyous celebrations the
Jewish community ever has ex-
perienced.
"If, however, the Labor Gov-
ernment of Great Britain should
hedge in meeting the demands
of world conscience and Palestine
should, on Nov. 10, be the scene
