Scores 'Inner Enemy'
NEW YORK—The American
Trade Union Council of the Na-
tional Committee for Labor Pal-
estin,e, representing hundreds of
thousands of members of the
American Federation of Labor

Organizations, pledged renewed
support to the Government of
Israel in the face of the truce
breakdown and the resumption
of Arab aggression in the Holy
Land. •
Adopting a resolution backing
the State of Israel, the trade
unionists called upon American
friends of the new-born state to
withhold all aid to the "inner"
enemies of the "first democratic
state in the Middle East," the
Irgun Zvai Leumi.

and Philip Murray, CIO presi-

cil for Labor Palestine.

Pioneer Labor Zionist Recalls
His 65 Years of Work for Israel
Abraham Katz, 75-year-old
labor Zionist, who makes his
home -with his daughter, Mrs.
Simon Slutzky, at 12836 LaSalle,
is one of the proudest pioneer
Zionists in our community.
A pre-Herzlian Zionist whose
family had dreamed of Israel's
redemption in the dark days of
Czar' Nicholas I, Mr. Katz, whose
75th birthday recently was cele-
brated by the Labor Zionist Or-
ganization of Detroit, claims that
this event coincided with 65
years of work for Eretz Israel.
His earliest recollection of his
family's interest in Jewry's re-
demption is the story his grand-
father told of the threat to his
nine sons whom Czarist soldiers
threatened to snatch up as chil-
dren for lifelong service in the
Russian army.
At that time, Jewish children
were kidnapped for such service
and were kept in service as Niko-
layevskiye Soldati for a mini-
mum of 25 years. Few of them
returned, many were forcibly
converted and only a small num-
ber returned to the Jewish fold.
Only by • turning farmers did
some families escape this tragic
fate.
Katz's grandfather turned far-
mer but never abandoned hope
of, instead, Settling in Eretz
Israel. His ideals were handed
down to the children, all of
whom became ardent Zionists.
Born in 1872, in 'Bogrinovetze,
in the Ukraine, Abraham Katz
came to Detroit in 1900. He be-
longed to the early midwestern
zionist movement — Knights of
Zion -7- and to most of the early
Zionist groups here and became
one of the organizers of the Poale
Zion, remaining a member of
Branch One since the labor move-
ment's • inception. Besides his
daughter, he has one son, Dr.
Joseph Katz, an eminent chem-
ist, and four grandchildren.
Mr. Katz has two sisters —
Mrs. Sheindel Gach and Mrs.
Lester M. Goldbergs
Chaya Greenberg. He had three
