The brothers had borrowed $200 to start this small venture . . . John had been a clerk in an- other grocery store and Nathan was selling cigars and tobacco before undertaking what to them was just a means of going into business together ... About 14 years ago, they were able to open another store at Chicago and Meyers, one of the first super markets . . . and picked the name Wrigley's because it seemed to be a good name that stuck with the customers . . The Wrigley Super Markets kept growing out of accumulated profits from folks who went all- out for the super market idea ... When World War II ended, John and Nate had added 14 more stores to the chain and started to build 10 more . , That $2'00 loan, 39 years ago, has, today, grown into a $75,000,000 business . with 65 stores, including the recently purchased Packers Out- let stores . . making Wrigley's one of the nation's largest super market chains . . . and that little grocery store on Grand River and Quincy was only recently sold by John and Nate . . . over the objection of their mother, Mrs. Ida Lurie, 80, who lives with Nate at 15362 Grandville. * * JOHN AND NATE are active in the community . . John was vice-chairman of the Food Di- vision in the 1951 Allied Jewish Campaign and is on the board of the Detroit Service Group • < . Nate was a member of this year's pre-campaign AJC Cabinet and is a staunch worker for the Jew- ish Welfare Federation. . * * IRWIN • COHN, lawyer who drew up -the papers between Wrigleys and Packers, spark- plugged organization of the Food Division in the '51 Campaign and served as its counselor . . Sam Frankel, now executive vice-president of the Wrigley chain, was co-chairman of the 1950 Food Division with Morie Rosenthal. * * * AT THIS YEAR'S Food Divi- sion Dinner John Lurie was toastmaster ... Fact is, though, to this day, John still doesn't think he is worth much as a speaker . admitting that he and Nate starting working after finishing the eighth grade . . But take it from others, he really is quite a guy with the words! * * SAM RUBINER, back home from his trip to Israel, tells of spending a great amount of time visiting various drug stores . . which, obviously, is near to Sam's heart since he is an offi- cial in the Cunningham stores. . • . One of the evidences of aus- terity in Israel, says Sam, was the fact that bottles were more precious to the druggists than many of the drugs themselves! . . . Every customer had to give a sizeable deposit . . . to make certain the bottles were returned. * * * SIGN REPORTFD on a road- side restaurant between here and Cleveland by Gertrude Ro- senzweig . .

During her performance, Sophie sang a song written by the composer of "Yiddishe Mama" that caught the emotions of the entire audi- ence and brought a tremendous ovation . . . After each perform- ance, Sophie sat in the lobby autographing her records and record albums . . . She has given over $600,000 to charity and makes no bones about the fact that her pet charities mainly include "helping my own peo- ple." . . . Ted Shapiro, pianist- accompanist for the grand lady of show business, who has been with her for many, many years says, "There just isn't anybody like here and never will be. Everything she does is from the bottom of her heart. She likes to help people because she has never forgotten how her parents had- to struggle for existence, and of the times when she didn't know where her next meal was coming from. Sophie is a great woman, on stage or off the stage. ". . . Sophie is now ap- proaching 70 although she'll never admit it except to say, "Son, I've been around a long, long time." * * THIRTY-FIVE YEARS AGO, Mrs. Bella Simon took leave of her family in Lithuania ... Her baby sister, Asta. then five years old, remained behind with the family . . . The intervening years, the war and Nazi barbarism wrote their tragic history . • One of Hitler's victims, Asta was deported to Germany, where she miraculously survived imprison- ment in a concentration camp. although here fiancee and an- other sister were exterminated. . . . Liberated finally by the Americans, Asta began her search for relatives . . . Her ad in a New York Yiddish paper brought contact with Mrs. Simon in Detroit . . . who, next week, will be re-united with the sister she remembers as a baby .. Mrs. Simon is the mother of Harriet Simon, efficient calen- dar secretary of the Jewish Community Council. * * DISA 'N DATA . . .

Dr. Henry A. Atkinson, honor- ary chairman and under of the American Christian Palestine Committee; the Rev. Dr. Daniel A. Poling, co-chairman; Dr. Samuel Guy Inman, vice-chair- man; and Dr. Carl Hermann Voss, chairman of the Executive Council, presented their views on American aid to the Near East in a statement submitted to Rep. James P. Richards, chairman of the Committee on Foreign Af- fairs. Expressing their views on be- half of the 20,000 members of the American Christian Pales- tine Committee, they declared their support for the McCor- mack-Martin and Douglas-Taft bills to authorize a $150,000,000 grant-in-aid to Israel. They pointed out that Israel is "a natural ally of the free nations to whose security in the threatened Middle East it can contribUte in no small measure by means of its uniquely high standard of technological skill and its trained and hardened youth."

Huyler'st State-Wide Hunt Continues For Leafleakoppipg Plane Federal authorities and Mich- igan State Police are combing airfields in this area for a clue to the identity of a mysterious airplane which Sunday dropped anti-Semitic leaflets near the Automotive Tank Center in Warren Township between De- troit and Mt. Clemens. Witnesses questioned a b o 0 t the two raids, one, at 2:15 p.m., the other at 7 p.m., said the plane was a red or maroon Stin- son or Piper Cub, with the num- ber NC364N on its wing. • Police checking, all planes in Michigan have not discovered the owner's identity. It is now believed that the plane is an out-of-state craft. FBI officials are checking the plane's registration with Wash- ington. The dropping of leaflets is a federal offense. Crossing state lines without notifying authorities is another federal count. The Jewish Community Coun- cil is cooperating with police in the matter. Boris Joffe, execu- tive director of the Council, re- ported that the leaflets closely resemble pamphlets distributed Open Daily: 11:30 to 8:30 p.m. Luncheons from $1.00 Complete Dinners from $1.60 Private Rooms Available for Showers — Luncheons Sweet 16 Parties Weddings — Receptions Supper Dances Cocktail Parties Business Dinners For Reservations TR 5-5100 "COME ON TO OUR HOUSE" We'll Give You . .

Another picture shows a bearded, black- hatted, robed figure, obviously a Jew: pushing Uncle Sam over the same brink. In the last frame, the caricature of the Jew is holding aloft three flags—the UN banner, -the hammer and sickle and a flag bearing the three-ball mark of the pawn- shop.
