Zion Jewry a Nation,
Waldo Frank Declares

NEW YORK (JPS)—Although
Palestine Jewry is already a
nation in the deepest sense of the
word, it is -a nation which finds
itself in a position of mortal
danger, "but this danger it shares
with all mankind," Waldo Frank,
author, declared at the dinner
which launched N e w York's
$450,000 campaign for the Amer-
ican Fund for Palestinian Insti-
tutions. Dr. Ira Eisenstein, leader
of the Society for the Advance-

mink
71:(04

Because mink is such an important investment,
we believe the selection of a mink coat deser' es
great care and careful thought.

Consider, first, your furrier. Victor, and the
Victor family have been concerned with fire
furs—particularly fine mink—for four genera-

tions.

A reputation that merits your utmost

confidence.

Consider, next, the quality of the mink itself.
Victor is one of the few in the midwest with
national recognition as an expert on raw skins.
The raw fur season opened on November 6.

We buy prodigiously of the finest mink pelts,
both for ourselves and for other furriers who
have entrusted us with their purchases for

many years.

We have always retained the pick of the most
prime, most luxurious pelts to be made up into
coats of Mink by Victor ... coats that will be
worn with pride by the loveliest women in the
* land.

Naturally, in our four-fold capacity of raw skin
buyer . . . style creator . . . wholesaler and
retailer, we effect certain economies that are

reflected in the price you pay for Mink by
Victor. The 1947 mink fashioned illustrated is
indicative of the unexecelled value presented in

our exciting collection.
