Histadrut Reaches $250,000;
Campaign Enlists Groups

More than $250,000 was report-
ed raised as of Sunday night in
this year's Detroit Histadrut Is-
rael Campaign, at the closing
event of the drive at Music Hall.
Harry Schumer, chairman, in his
report to the gathering, express-
ed confidence that the total will
mount to $300,000.

Mr. Schumer announced that
many new groups were added to
the organizations' group con-
tributors under the leadership of
Louis Levine, the division's chair-
man, and Michael Taich, director.
He announced that four Work-
men's Circle branches emerged
with excellent results among the
new contributors and that Bnai
Brith and Jewish War Veterans'
groups participated in the drive.
All branches of the labor Zion-
ist movement actively participat-
ed in the work. Special recogni-
tion was given to the new, Eng-
lish speaking groups of the Pio-
neer Women, Farband and Labor
Zionist organization.
In opening the meeting, Mr.
Schumer stated that Morris L.
Schaver, one of Detroit's cam-
paign founders and leaders down
throughout the years, was miss-
ing at the closing for the first
time because of illness. A formal
resolution was sent by the hun-
dreds of Mr. Schaver's friends
and co-workers at the meeting to
Mr. Schaver and his family wish-
ing him a speedy recovery and
promising rededicated efforts to
Israel and the Histadrut, the
causes for which he has given
his leadership, efforts and means
for the past ,25 years.

Rabbi Morris Adler, in a brief
address, called on all Histadrut
workers to immediately begin
their efforts on behalf of the
Allied Jewish Campaign, point-
ing out that the great bulk of
funds were directed for the un-
precedented responsibilities of
bringing in thousands of new-

comers and preparing them for
their new, productive lives in
Israel. He stated that lie was
confident the loyal Histadrut •
workers, who had worked so
many years for Israel and rec-
ognized the great significance
of what was happening, would
be the first ones to throw them-
selves into the over-all United
Jewish Appeal and become
partners in the historic under-
taking.
Gershon Agronsky, editor of
the Palestine Post, making his
last appearance in this country
before leaving for Israel on Tues-
day, told workers that his stay
in the country had greatly im-
pressed him with the important
message that they were bringing
to Jews of every walk of life of
how Israel was , being built. He
underscored the fact that the
Histadrut, in blending the best
features of cooperative venture
with private initiative, was se-
curing. the future of a Jewish
State built on the sacred Jewish
principles of social justice. He
emphasized the important, "hu-
man" job that the Histadrut was
performing with the newcomers
in giving them the feeling that
"they belonged". •
Isaac Hamlin, national secre-
tary of Histadrut campaigns
(Geverkshaften) praised Detroit
Histadrut workers for again plac-
ing the 1949 Detroit campaign
among the top cities of the coun-
try and called for continued aid
to Israel, especially through the
forthcoming Allied Jewish Cam-
paign.
Campaign workers were thank-
ed by Sam Rabinowitz, campaign
director, for the outstanding ef-
forts and achievements in the
campaign which this year tested
their devotion and identification
with Histadrut.
