Lehman Cites Neglect
Of Jewish Education

NEW YORY, (JTA)—"Mean-
ingful and constructive education
in Judaism," is being neglected
because of lack of teachers, fa-
cilities and modern educational
techniques, Herbert H. Lehman
said in an address opening the
local drive for the $15,000,000
University of Judaism sponsored
Must Report Now "
by the Jewish Theological Sem-
In a statement announcing the inary.
drive, Mr. Jacobs asserted that it
will afford Detroit Jews an oppor-
tunity to show that strong sup-
port to Zionism "is not merely
restricted to the 'Jews of New
York.' as Bevin falsely and con-
temptuously claimed. We in De-
troit must prepare now for action.,
We must stand up and be counted
within the ranks of the Zionist
Organization of America in order
to strengthen the hands of our
legislators in Washington in tak-
ing affirmative American action
on behalf of' the Jews of Europe
and Palestine.
"We in America must overcome
our present complacency if we are
to save the surviving remnants of
European Jewry and give -them'
their just rights of statehood and
security in a Jewish national home'
in Palestine," declared Mr. Kritz-
er. "We cannot continue to 'let
George do it.' We must make our
strength and opinion felt in the
council of the United Nations.
We must mobilize our strength
NOW."

Instead of going back over the years to show you
the continuity of Boys' town since it first had its
small beginning, we're giving you a modern up-to-
the-minute picture of ,tine great, new Boys'town
(now known as Boys'town - Girls'town) as it stands
today.
Through the years Boys'town has been a store dedi-
cated to serving the Youth of Windsor and Detroit.
Today, with wealth of experience and breadth of
outlook and responsibility for leadership, Boys'town
has grown to become the largest store of its kind
in Canada . . . yet in spite of its bigness and beauty,
it's human and personal.

Sure we're proud—mighty proud of our appearance
but we're counting on those little personal things to
make Boys'town-Girls'tewn a great institution. Little
things like the friendly smile of a salesclerk when
you're tired and "out of sorts" . .. on the quick and
unquestioning way in which a refund or exchange

count with you . . . for it is you, the people of
Windsor and Detroit, we have to thank for our suc-
cess.
