Mechanical Trades Leaders Hold On the Record
Series of AJC Planning Sessions
By HAL BRUSS

Our orchid this week goes to
the Jan Peerce recording of
"Bluebird of HappinesS." It's stir-
ring and melodious strains will
want you to make it a - part of
your collection. Mr. Peerce's re-
cording of "Because" on the other
side is also very good.
Now that the holiday season is
here we would like to suggest
the following:
"Prayers and Songs For the
Sabbath" byeRabbi Stephen Wise;
"Songs of the- Ghetto" by Emma
Shaver; "Gems Of the Synagogue"
by Cantor Josef Rosenblatt; "Ha-
tikvah" and "Ich Fur Aheirn" by
Detroit's Cantor Hyman Adler,
Lovers of the lighter classics
are finding Katchaturian's "Gayne
Ballet Suite" a fine interpreta-
tion on modern music. Opera
lovers will thrill to "The Heart
of La B.ohme" by Albanese, Gi-
gli, Menotti and Poli.

and their new • recording of
"There's No You," and "Together"
promises to be another hit. Spike
Jones' arrangement of "My Old
Flame" is probably one of his
best.
Oklahoma, Carousel and Porgy
and Bess still lead the field in
'popular show albums.
The non-breakable kiddies nur-
sery-rhymes and stories are the
answer to a mother's prayer. They
are packed with interest and just
the thing to keep brother and sis-
ter occupied.

Leaders in the Mechanical Trades Division who are faking an
active role in the 1948 Allied Jewish Campaign are shown here at
two of the section meetings which are- being held this week, prior
to the "Over the Top" signal on March 30, when the Campaign of
Destiny for $6,200,000 gets under way.

Mother, 'Dead' Son,
Meet in the U. S.
With USNA Aid-

MRS. TOVA SANHEDRAI
Allied Jewish Campaign, at 8 p.
m. Sunday, March 28, at Central
High School.
Rabbi Max Kirshblum, execu-
tive vice-president of the Miz-
rachi Organization of America,
and Mrs. Tova Sanhedrai of Pal-
estine, president of the Women's
Council of Hapoel Hamizrachi,
will discuss the Palestinian situa-
tion and conditions among the
DP's in Europe. Cantor Jacob H.
Sonenklar of Shaarey Zedek will
present a prograin of DP sand
ghetto songs and memorial pray-
ers.
Mrs. Sanhedrai is the wife of
a prominent rabbi in Palestine
and the mother of a two-year-old
son whom she left in a Kibbutz
to come to the United` Statesto
enlist the cooperation of Ameri-
can Jewry in the struggle of the
Yishuv for the upbuilding of the
Jewish homeland.
Arriving in Palestine at the
age of 14 from Galicia, Mrs. San-
hedrai worked her way up to the
leadership of the Women's Coun-
cil of Hapoel Hamizrachi, which

Approximately 1,000 people
filled the social hall and adjoin-
ing foyer of Congregation
Shaarey Zedek to overflowing,
on March 17, to honor Emma
Schaver on the appearance of her
recordings of DP songs she had
gathered while in Germany.
Highlighted by an inspiring ad-
dress by Rabbi Morris Adler, the
program on that memorable eve-
ning included the playing of the
records, a number of songs by
Mrs. Schaver and piano selec-
tions by the brilliant Detroit
musician, Seymour Lipkin, who
now is assistant director of the
Cleveland Symphony. Wolf Sny-
der, director of the Farband
Schools, spoke in Yiddish. Aaron
Droock, president of the Jewish
Community Council, was chair-
man. A floral presentation was
made to Mrs. Schaver by the Pio-
neer Women's Organization.
Rabbi Adler, in his stirring ad-
dress, gave an outline of Jewish
cultural achievements in Eastern
Europe. Tracing -the background
of the devotion of Jewry to
learning, Rabbi Adler gave an
historical analysis of Jewish con-
tributions to the cultures of the
world and the ethical ideals
which symbolized them even un-
der the most trying circum-
stances of life ip the ghetto. He
paid a glorious tribute to Mrs.
Schaver for her efforts and her
deep-rooted Jewish feelings.
Analyzing the title "I Believe,"
which Mrs. Schaver selected for
her records, Rabbi Adler de-
clared that the "Ani Maamin"
which is so splendidly enhanced
by Mrs. Schaver's song is sym-

bolic of the Jewish will to live,
strengthened by an undying
faith.
Deeply moved by the encomia,
Mrs. Schaver, responded with a
brief address of gratitude to her
many friends for the reception
given her and her recordings.
"Anyone who has experenced
the DP camps, even as a Visitor,
can never forget them," she said,
"The emotional impact upon the
observer in speaking of her re-
cent trip is so great that it
causes a terrible restlessness.
Whoever has felt this must tell
the world about what is happen-
ing to the Jews there and how
magnificently they are reacting
to it."
After the program a reception
and tea was held in the social
hall. A committee from the Pion-
eer Women's organization, of
which Mrs. Schaver is a member,
served as hostesses. The commit-
tee consisted of Mesdames Harry
Kay, chairman; Gilbert Miller,
S. Goldoltas, Philip Stellar, Nor-
man Kanter, Diane Hirschhorn,
Gerson Berris and David Sislin.
