At Home for Aged
Two rooms in the Jewish Home
for Aged have been dedicated
to the memory of members of
the Jewish community by their
families.
Sidney J. Allen, vice president
and member of the board of the
home, has dedicated one of the
sitting rooms in the main build-
ing in memory • of his mother i
Maimie Lumberg Allen, while
Louis Schlussel has endowed the
sun room in the new corridor in
memory of his wife, Anna.
The Maimie Lumberg Allen
sitting room is being decorated
and furnished by the Allen fam-
ily, and, Mr. Schlussel, besides
furnishing the Anna Schlussel
sun room, has furnished a sitting
room in the main building and
has supplied a large size tele-
vision set for residents of the
Home.
In addition to the memorial,
Mr. Allen has provided uphol-
stered benches in various sections
of the Home for comfortable
lounging facilities.
To provide better lighting for
the residents, the Allen family
has installed new lighting in the
Allen Memorial Synagogue.
Due to the increasing demand
of Detroit residents desiring to
send food parcels to friends and
relatives in Israel/ the office of
the ZOA in Detroit has added to
its many projects the Service for
Palestine project of the Keren
Hayesod of America.
Service for Palestine is an of-
ficial non-profit organization
which ships kosher gift 'food par-
cels to individuals in Israel. The
U. S. Post Office at present is
not accepting gift parcels for
Israel. However, through ar-
rangements made with export-
import firms, Service for Pales-
tine has been able to have depots
set up in Israel for disposition of
the food packages.
The Detroit office of the ZOA
is now accepting orders for four
types of parcels. Daily lists of
orders will be sent to the Keren
Hayesod from Detroit. The four
packages are:

Detroit Businessmen
Active in Support of
Los Angeles Sanitarium
Republicans Not Bound
By Bernadotte Report
Creation of the first national
medical center under Jewish aus-
pices, with extensive facilities for
study and treatment of long-
term illnesses is becoming reality
at the Los Angeles Sanitarium.
The Sanitarium, merged with
the Mount Sinai Hospital and
Clinic of Los Angeles, has, for
three decades, provided facilities
for treatment of tuberculosis,
chest diseases, cancer, heart dis-
ease and other major illnesses.
Soon, a new Medical Center,
with six hospital wings, research
laboratories, surgeries, X-Raj
rooms, physiotherapy and treat=
ment centers, nurses' home,
physicians' quarters, personnel
buildings, power plant, mainte-
nance shops and recreation cen-
ters for ambulatory patients will
be completed at the Duarte, Calif.,
institution.
Funds for these improvements
are provided by groups in Jew-
ish communities throughout the
country, including the Detroit
Auxiliary of the Sanitarium. The
Businessmen's Group of that
Auxiliary has set a goal of $50,000
for the year.
Meeting every two weeks at
the Furniture Club, they are
working steadily toward reaching
that goal. The next meeting will
be Thursday, Oct. 21,
Thomas J. Hamilton reports to
the New York Times from Paris
that "Secretary of State Mar-
shall's statement endorsing the
plan of the late Count Folke
Bernadotte, the slain United
Nations Mediator for Palestine,
for final settlement of the Pales-
tine question was issued without
having consulted John Foster
Dulles or other leading members
of the United States delegation
to the United Nations General
Assembly." His cabled report
continues:
"As a result it is understood
that neither Mr. Dulles, who is
expected to become Secretary of
State in the event of a Repub-
lican victory in November, nor
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, the Re-
publican candidate for President,
is bound to support it as part of
the bi-partisan policy that the
United States is following in the
United Nations.
"Sources in close touch with
the situation emphasized two
points. First, Palestine was never
a subject included in the informal
agreement regarding a bi-partisan
policy. Secondly, this reservation
does not mean that Governor
Dewey and Mr. Dulles have yet
decided whether they are for or
against the Bernadotte report."

Federation Sets Up
Permanent Offices
In Owen Building
The Jewish Welfare Federation
of Detroit, social planning and
coordinating- body for 14 local
Jewish welfare agencies and
sponsoring organization of the
Allied Jewish Campaign, has
taken permanent offices in the
Owen Building, headquarters on
the 6th floor, 250 W. Lafayette.
The new office space will pro-
vide ample facilities for both the
Federation's year-round activities
and the annual Allied Jewish
Campaign. Funds of the Allied
Jewish Campaign are used to
support' more than 50 local, na-
tional, and overseas causes, in-
cluding the United Jewish
Appeal.
In.,,,the past, the campaign was
conducted from a headquarters
removed from the Federation
offices which were formerly at
51 W. Warren in the Community
Chest Building. This arrange-
ment necessitated moves twice
yearly of staff ,and equipment.
The telephone number of the
Federation is the same as that
for the 1948 Allied Jewish Cam-
paign, WO. 5-3939.

28, to the State of Israel.
Among this shipment was the
Bnai Brith Aid to Israel caravan
of trucks, jeeps, food and cloth-
ing which left Sept. 26 from De-
troit and arrived in New York
City in time to be rolled on the
boats which left the same day
for Palestine.
Eli Springer of Louis Marshall
Lodge, who was in charge of the
drivers of the caravan, which in-
cluded Irving Fields, chairman
of Bnai Brith Aid to Israel
Drive, reported the thrilling and
enthusiastic reception by a dele-
gate of the Metropolitan Council
of New York and by dignitaries
of Bnai Brith.
Automotive equipment, espec-
ially trucks, are in the A-1 prior-
ity rating at the moment. Many
more trucks of specific type and
size are badly needed, and the
Bnai Brith Aid to Israel Com-
mittee of Detroit has received
an appeal from the supply mis-
sion to obtain as many of these
as possible.
Sam Atlas and Yale Simons, of
the automotive division, were
largely responsible for seven of
the 10 vehicles which left De-
troit.
The machinery and war sur-
plus groups have taken on mo-
mentum. Many valuable pieces of
machinery have been obtained
by Ben Weiss of the machinery
group and Arnold Michlin of the
war surplus division.
The plumbing division of the
hardware committee, headed by
Harry Davidson, Harry Richmon,
M. J. Bechek and Lou Barrish,
made a large contribution of
plumbers' kits, together with a
11/2 ton truck. Ben Bavly, chair-
man of the drug division, esti-
mated that over $15,00.0 of the
drug quota has been reached and
that the Handleman Co. ware-
house is fast filling up with valu-
able drug supplies.
Among the recent contributors
are: Jewish Metropolitan Club, a
1 1/2-ton truck; Jewish Women's
Welfare OrganizatiOn, a jeep;
Lachowitcher Aid Society, 103
cases of food; Wilner Society, a
jeep; Friendship Club, food.

Top Communities Meet
To Plan '49 Campaigns
A special conference of the 30

perience in meeting local operat-
ing and capital funds needs which
