-
OF ALL THE towns we like
best to visit . . . Chicago holds
a top priority for our traveling
bag . . . and since the 80th Mid-
West convention of Bnai Brith
was held there . . . it was a wel-
come chance to spend a few
days in the city of much windy
hustle and bustle.
WE'VE BEEN TO Chi many
times . . . but still can't figure
out the best way to cross its
downtown avenues without get-
ting a fender in our pants . . .
The traffic cops in the loop are
only interested in one thing .. .
to keep cars moving . . . and it
wouldn't be an uncommon thing
to see some victim picked up
from the street and given a ticket
.. . because he got in the way.
THE MEN WERE convened at
Drake Hotel . .. while the gals
had their sessions at the Stevens
. . . an arrangement that met
with distinct disapproval of the
local delegation . . or so they
said . . . Pisgah led the male en-
tourage with nine representa-
tives . . . Aaron Droock, Rabbi
Herbert Eskin, Milt Weinstein,
Elias Goldberg, Vic Bloomfield,
Sam Lieb, Iz Starr and Harry
Yudkoff . . . while Louis Mar-
shall ran a close second with
seven • . . Dr. Lawrence Yaffa,
Al Farber, Bob Nathans, Tom
Zohott, Jimmy Laker; Dave Rosin
and Nate Maxman . . . Five from
the newly-organized Phillip
Handler Lodge proved the in-
terest of that group in Bnai Brith
activities ... Dave Katzman, Jack
Wasserman, Ben Garrison, Al
Magitz and Gene Harwick show-
ed that getting a charter means
more than getting together to
say hello . . . From other lodges
were: . . . Sid Karbel, Morry
Direnfield, Sam Ka/van and Dr.
Mike Engleman, Keidan . .
Sam Shulman, Moe Miller and
Sam Dubrinsky, Brandeis . . .
Harry Parr and Harry Shephard,
Downtown . . Lou Barden and
Jack Charlip, Tikvah . . . and
Dave Weisberg, Israel.
THE CONVENTION was a
great success for the fellows .. .
Not only was Sam Lieb elected
first vice-president of District 6
. . . but Detroit will soon have
. . . for the first time . . . a paid
director to take charge of doings
in the local area.
SO FAR AS OUR senses of
recognition were concerned . .
plus the memories of a couple
of aides . . . here are some of the
women-folk who came as dele-
gates: . .. Tillie Sims, Lil Aarons,
Netty Shulman, Lee Gould, Eve
Ketai, Mildred Fogel and Fran-
ces Solovich, Pisgah . . • Molly
Banks, Jean Maxman, Lena Zo-
hott, Irene Rodman and Yetta
Yates, Louis Marshall . . . Jean-
ette Sheplow, Annabelle Cog-
gan, Rita Fisher and Sarah Rob-
bins, East Side . . . Belle Bloom,
Anne Hartstein and Helen Tack,
Detroit ... Mel Benson and Nora
Parr, Downtown ... Mamie Bar-
den and Jane Weisman, Tikvah
. . . Prudence Bly_ield and Shir-
ley Munson, Morgenthau . . .
Lena Miller, Brandeis . . . Apolo-
gies to the many other lassies
whose names we didn't get.
THE LADIES DIDN'T do so
bad by themselves . . . getting
four district officers from our
town . . . Most important, of
course, was election of Tillie
Sims as president . . Molly
Banks was made guide .. . and
Lil Aarons and Ann Hartstein,
general committeewomen.
IT PROVED TO BE quite a
trip for Jack Wasserman . . .
who called a former Army buddy
he hadn't seen since three years
ago in the Southwest Pacific . • .
The khaki-pal took Jack and
wife, Elaine, to a local nite-spot
. . and the fellows almost raised
the roof . . . after discovering
that the master-of-ceremonies
was an old buddy who had gone
overseas with them on the U.S.S.
Set Witch.
BACK TO DETROIT . . and
what's going on round the home-
town community . . . talk has
it that the nominating commit-
tee may ask Sam Rubiner to ac-
cept the presidency of the Mid-
West Section of the Jewish Wel-
fare Board.
AT THE CLOSING dinner of
the Allied Jewish Campaign .. .
folks were allowed an oppor-
tunity to offer special gifts in
honor of people . . . Ad-man
Leonard Simons gave a gift in
honor of his future sons-in-law
. . . Leonard has two daughters
... 15 and 11 years old.
GOOD BET for fun-filled fes-
tivities . . . the old-fashioned
Barn Dance slated by'Raymond
Zussman Post and Auxiliary .. .
July 11 at Magnolia Riding Club,
16250 W. 8-Mile Rd. . . . Trudy
Sedon is chairman of the affair.
DETROIT IS AMONG the top
group of large cities . . . in in-
creased giving over last year's
campaign . . . Two other towns
in this select circle can also point
to Detroit for much of its suc-
cess . . . since Herman Pekarsky
is executive director in Newark
. . . and Abe Sudran heads the
Kansas City Federation . . . Both
are former associate directors of
the local JWF.
FACES AT THE DETROIT
News are pretty red these
days ... It recently ran a paid
ad appealing for funds for the
Irgun . . . the likes of which
has been refused by New York
newspapers.
DELICATESSEN MEN in the
community frarikly don't know
what to do about the rising cost
situation . . . They say that if
things continue as they are . .
last week's raises on their menus
is but the beginning! ... Corned
beef sandwiches are already 35
cents . . . a far cry from the days
of the 12 and 15 centers . . .
How much higher can they get
is the question . . . "Just wait
and see!" say the delicatessen
men.
DISA 'N DATA . . . The old
Children's Home on grounds of
Home For Aged ... will be trans-
formed into a hospital wing for
the aged residents . . . Dr. R.
R. Goldstone is next year's
commander of Julius Rosenwald
American Legion Post ... He held
same position before . . . Dream
house of architect Monte Ferar
and wife, Josephine, finally be-
coming a reality • . . first shovel
of dirt recently caught in lens
of home movie camera . . . Irv-
ing Blumberg and Leonard Sim-
ons have turned authors . .
among their other outstanding
attributes ... They've had a story
published in "The Jewish Com-
munity," national mag. . . .
Opening of Kow Kow Inn out
McNichols Rd. way by Eugene
Foo, famous cook of Cantonese
delicacies . . . brings to mind
story of time he headed another
such type eatery . . . and had a
waiter who was scared stiff of a
neighborhood dog . . . Eugene
asked him, one day, if he didn't
know of the old proverb that a
barking dog never bites . . . and
the waiter replied, "Sure, me
know ploverb, you know plov-
erb, but do dog know ploverb!"
BEST BET COMING UP for
participation by young adults
will be the Garden Party of So-
cial, Inc. . . July 18 at Rouge
Recreational Center (former
home of Charles E. Sorenson).
IT'S GOING TO be pretty hard
to convince Paul Zuckerman, the
peanut butter man, that steel
gent Sol Eisenberg hasn't got it
in for him . .. At a recent cam-
paign meeting, Sol got up and
innocently said, "What some peo-
ple are giving is still peanuts"
. . and Paul immediately cried
out, "I resent that!" ... As if this
wasn't enough, the two were out
playing golf . • . and a ball from
'Sol's club landed smack into
Paul's face . . knocking him out
.. They're next-door neighbors,
though ... and the best of friends
. through it al/.

More than 9,000 Americans of
every race and creed have donat-
ed their blood for Israel since
the opening of the Red Mogen
Dovid Blood Bank at 326 39th
St., New York City, on April 19.
The men and women who made
the appointments for the donors,
served them fruit juices and per-
formed the non-medical tasks
connected with the big job of
running a blood bank, were all
volunteers. The same is true at
the Red Mogen Dovid Blood Bank
in Philadelphia which was open-
ed on Ma- - 20.
Three consignments of plasma
have left New York in the last
six weeks, one by ship, two by
plane.
Israel requires immediately
5,000 additional units of dry blood
plasma according to Dr. Meshou-
lam Levontin, president of Ma-
gen David Adorn (as Red Mogen
Dovid is known in Israel), the
Jewish counterpart of the Red
Cross in Israel and provides all
the blood plasma needs for the
entire country, including hos-
pitals as well as individuals.
Jewish Athletes Make Olympic Teams
NEW YORK—Competing with
the athletic elite of the world,
athletes from Jewish Community
Centers and YM-YWHAs affili-
ated with the Jewish Welfare
Board will play a prominent role
in the XII Olympiad in London,
opening July 30, according to in-
formation compiled by Charles
Ornstein of New York, who rep-
resents JWB on the U. S. Olym-
pic Committee and is chairman
of the Olympic Food Committee.
Besides athletes, there will be
a scattering of JCC and YM-
YWHA coaches, managers and
officials participating in the in-
ternational sports festival.
Fred Sharaga, of the 92nd St.
YM-YWHA, New York, who won
second place in the National
A.A.U. 10,000 meter walk, will
carry the American colors in that
event in the Olympics. Henry
Laskau, who represents the New
York Maccabi A.C., out-walked
Sharaga to win the event and the
top heel and toe Olympic spot.
Six members of the senior bas-
ketball team of the Montreal
IMHA will be among the 14
players representing Canada in
the Olympic basketball competi-
tion.
Joseph Salzman, athletic direc-
tof of the Elizabeth, N. J., YM-
YWHA, has been selected as one
of the coaches of the American.
women's gymnastic team.

Pamphlet Claims Jewish
'Nation' in Birobidjan
Influenced UN Decision
From the Pages of
"Jews in the Soviet Union:
Citizens and Builders," a pamph-
let published by American Biro-
bidjan Committee, 103 Park Ave.,
New York, contains two essays.
Paul Novick is the author of
"The New Jew in the Soviet
Union." The other essay, "Jew-
ish State Rises in Birobidjan," is
by J. M. Budish.
The latter essay, some of the
facts in which have been dis-
puted, maintains that "the fact
that the Jews have gained all the
attributes of a nation in Biro-
bidjan has contributed enormous-
ly to the obtaining of the decision
of the United Nations in favor
of an independent Jewish state
in Palestine." This sounds most
fantastic, but the author appears
convinced of its truth. To most
people it will sound entirely new
and as the pigment of a rich
imagination.
Budish claims that "Birobidjan
has provided the Jews with all
the attributes of a nation. It
has opened a new era in the his-
tory of the Jewish people." He'll
have to do a lot more convinc-
ing than he does in his essay to
make people believe that it is so.
