key will be two large bronze
memorial tablets containing the
names of all Jewish servicemen
from Detroit and Michigan
who fell in World War II. These
tablets are now being manu-
factured.
Committees of - the Jewish
War Veterans have been com-
piling the list of nearly 300 Jew-
ish heroic war dead from De-
troit and Michigan, according to
Samuel J. Rhodes, president of
the JWV Memorial Home Asso-
ciation.
To minimize the possibility
that any names may be left off
the list of honored dead, the
JWV asks the help of all Jewish
residents in Detroit and other
state communities. Anyone who
has lost a relative or friend in
the last war is asked to write or
call the Jewish War Veterans

MRS. JACK SEDER, president of the Jewish Women European
Welfare Organization, is shown signing . the agreement between
the Jewish National Fund, her organization and its North-Wood-
ward Branch for the establishment of a Nachlah (estate) in the
Jerusalem Corridor to perpetuate the name of the organization in
Israel; The group, which was founded in 1920, bought, in previous
years, two groves in Israel consisting of 2,000 trees. It is intended
to open a first aid station on the Nachlah. This establishment
was purchased through the Kupat Cholim, the Israeli Workers'
Health Insurance. Following its tradition to support widows and
orphans, the organization hopes to settle such newcomers on the
Nachlah and to establish a village which will become a refuge for
the survivors of Nazi.persecution. The organization has sent thou-
sands of dollars in recent years to Israel to help orphans and
widows.
Ever since its inception, the organization has helped orphans
and widows in Europe to come to America.
