$553355000 QUOTA!
Record Detroit Allied Campaign Goal Set
In $170,000,000 United Jewish Appeal

Detroit Jewry must raise $5,335,000 as its 1947 Allied
Jewish Campaign goal in 1947 if catastrophe is to be
averted among the survivors in Europe and if we are to
continue uninterrupted support for local, national and
other overseas educational, health, welfare and relief
agencies.

THE JEWISH NEWS .

The Community Quota Committee, which includes key
leaders and workers in all walks of life in Detroit Jewry,
unanimously adopted this goal after hearing analyses of
overseas, national and local needs, at three meetings here
last Saturday, by prominent national and local leaders.

LONDON—Gloomy prospects are belived

10 be ahead for the London conference on
Palestine which opened here Monday.
British and Arab spokesmen alone are at-
tending the conference, Jewish participation
having been ruled out by the World Zionist
Congress held in Basle last month. Congress
conditions for participation, that guarantees
be made the White Paper provisions be nulli-
fied, have not been honored.
Observers here believe the present confer-
ence is more certainly doomed to failure than
previous sessions, and there is a possibility
the problem may be referred to the United-
Nations.
While the British Cabinet is most anxious
to arrive at an immediate solution, with par-
tition as- a basis for final negotiations, there
are so many obstacles in the way that failure
is envisioned by all interested parties.
The Palestine kidnapings last week-end
and the defiance of authority by the terror-
ists are believed to have aggravated the situa-
tion. One of the hostages still was missing
on Wednesday.
It has been indicated Colonial Secretary
Arthur Creech-Jones favors partition, but
the plan is opposed by Foreign Secretary
