work such as the fight against
anti-Semitism, efforts to strength-
en democracy in Detroit, action

ing decisions on policy and action.
The only formal address will
be delivered at the evening din-
ner meeting by Dr. Samuel C.
Kohs, director of the Bureau of
War Records of the National
Jewish Welfare Board.
Dr. Kohs, a graduate of the
College. of the City of New York,
Clark University and Stanford
University, has had a distinguish-
ed career as a psychologist, and
is regarded as one of the coun-
try's leading statisticians.
He has been active in Jewish
community work since 1924,
holding executive posts in Oak-
land, Cal., San Francisco, and
Brooklyn. For 10 years he was
on the faculty of the Graduate
School for Jewish Social Work,
directing the department of so-
cial technology. A number of
Dr. Kohs' former students are
on the staffs of Detroit Jewish
social agencies.
Chairman for Evening
Dr. Kohs' address will be on
"The Organized Jewish Commun-
ity of the Future."
Dr. Shamarya Kleinman, co-
chairman of the program corn-
mittee,_ Will be chairman of the
evening session. After Dr. Kohs'
address there will be discussion
from the floor..
All sessions are open to the
public and regular Community
Council delegates.
The program committee in-
cludes in addition to the co-chair-
men Mrs. Morris Adler, Samuel
Brainin, Charles Driker, Rabbi
Leon Fram, Dr. B. Benedict
Glazer, Joseph Haggai, William
Hordes, David I. Rosin, Irving W.
Schlussel and Mrs. Leonard H.
Weiner.'

The Jewish Community Coun-
cil date-clearing bureau, headed
by Reva Reichman, is a wonder-
ful thing and should be taken
advantage of by every group,
large or small, young or old .. .
Organizations that would
jeopardize the success of an en-
deavor when a simple phone call
can mean so much are definitely
lacking in some degree of in-
telligence! . • . Non-cooperation
with the other fellow is no boon
to their respectful acceptance in
the community, either!

Sheikhs Express
Hope for Friendship

40

JERUSALEM, (Palcor)—About

40 Arab sheikhs and notables of
the vicinity visited the Jewish
settlement Givat Hairn Dec. 4 to
express their condolences for the
seven Jews killed during a Brit-
ish' military and police raid last
week in search of so-called "ill-
egal" Jewish immigrants and for
the damage suffered by the vil-
lage.
Received formally in the Cen-
tral Hall of the Jewish settle-
ment, a spokesman of the visit-
ing Arab group stressed the de-
sire of the Arabs in the vicinity
to maintain their friendly rela-
tions with the Jewish settlers, "in
the future as in the past."
One of the Arab speakers gave
assurance that "no external fac-
tors can adversely affect the
neighborly relations between the
Arabs of this area and the Givat
Haim settlers." A representative
of the Jewish settlement said:
"Armies come and armies go, but
neighborly ties always remain
the same."
