Governor Greets
Jews at New Year

Governor Kim Sigler greets
the Detroit Jewish Community
through the Jewish Nevis:
. As governor of Michigan,
please accept my warmest good
wishes as the members of the
Jewish communities of our
state celebrate their New Year.
Reaching far back into anti-
quity, this New Year has
symbolized a rededication to
God, whom we all worship,
and a hoPe for better days
ahead.
It is my earnest hope that
the year 5708 may bring you
and the suffering members of
your people abroad greater
peace, understanding and good
will.

Our Letter Box

Women Urged to Form
Army In Liberty Fight
Editor, The Jewish News:

In this crucial period, when
Jews are persecuted and annihila-
ted in gas-chambers and concen-
tration camps; when inhuman
Briton kill brave Jewish youth
fighting for the freedom of Eretz
Israel, we women are compelled
to join this titantic struggle.
In the spirit of Deborah, we
must enter the Zionist Army and
fight until we reach our destina-
tion. The time has come to real-
ize the necessity of a country for
our people.
But in order to achieve this
goal, we have to work as a uni-
fied group. We need a big volun-
teer army of American women to
fulfill the task made more criti-
cal by the wiping out of Jewish
communities in Europe and in
other areas. Alike the Jewish
women of ancient times, the
Jewish woman today is duty
bound to help fight for the re-
demption of our country and the
survival of our struggling people.

tion.
To the above, may I be privi-
leged to add my personal good
