New Meanings for 'DP'
Detroit Women Tell Reaction
To Impressive UJA Parley
ORT Games
Party Jan. 12
By MRS. ROBERT S. DREWS
From Dec. 12 to 15, five Detroit women—leaders in our
community—were in Atlantic City. They were not there to
seek pleasure—they were there to seek new goals of endeavor
for a great cause—United Jewish Appeal.
This was not their first attendance at a national confer-
ence—but "something" had transformed this one into a new
experience—the stance of the
speakers appeared to be firmer,
the note of their voices seemed to
be the song of the Homeland,
their goal for the cause was
greater. That "something" was
Palestine—and the Jewish State.
Writers, orators, news com-
mentators and workers had at
one time or another referred to
"DP" as Displaced Persons, De-
layed Pilgrims, Destination Pales-
tine—but to these women it had
been given an added significance
—"DETROIT PLEDGES."
Mrs. Max R. Frank, president
of the Women's Division of the
Jewish Welfare Federation, stat-
ed: "We realize there was a dif-
ference in the atmosphere. For
so many years we seemed to be
in the depths of a bottomless,
dark pit—but now we can see the
daylight, its rays leading us on •
our way. Only the money that we
Jews in America will give will
put this state in the category of
all free, democratic nations. When
all displaced Jews will have a
new life in Palestine, self-sup-
porting and self-reliant, a pride
to all Jews everywhere, then we
will have become a constructive
force in world. statesmanship."
Mrs. John C. Hopp, chairman
of the Women's Committee on
Campaign Structure, to whom
"DP" has another additional
meaning, "DETROIT PLAN S"
stated: "I was deeply impressed
with the enthusiasm of the people
who were eager to give, and the
democratic manner in which the
sessions were conducted. These
sessions were led by important,
prominent men from all parts of
the country, whose thoughts and
energies were concentrated on the
promotion of the aims of a great
cause. I was convinced that the
workers of Detroit's Women's Di-
vision are _equal, if not superior,
to those of other large com-
munities throughout the country,
but we must follow Boston's suc-
cessful plan—See and contact a
lot more people.' We have lost
no time—we have already form-
ulated plans for our 1948 Allied
Jewish Campaign."
Mrs. Abe Kasle remarked: "I
was moved by the selflessness of
those attending the conference, in
dedicating themselves to bring
succor and hope into the lives
of thousands and thousands of
our people. I felt humble in the
presence of UJA's great leaders."
Esther R. Prussian, director of
the Detroit Service Group, also
attended the conference.
K. Palman Donates
Hebrew Library
With funds provided by K. Pal-
loan, in memory of his wife,
Brocha Palman, a nook of Pales-
tinian Hebrew books has been
established at the Rose Sittig
Cohen Branch of the United He-
brew Schools.
The library includes close to
e00 books, and weekly and
monthly magazines published in
Palestine during the last few
years. A widely assorted section
deals with modern Hebrew fic-
tion. Another section deals with
modern language study by emin-
ent Hebrew philologists and lin-
guists.
The books on Zionism in-
clude all aspects of modern Zion-
ism in all stages of its develop-
ment. In this section are numer-
ous research works on the geo-
graphy, topography, economic
status and development of cities
and kibutzim in Eretz,
