Chana Chizik Dies

Chana Chizik, one of the first
pioneers to settle in Palestine
and leading figure in the Wom-
en Worker's movement, is dead,
according to a cable from Beba
Idelson, member of Israel Par-
liament.
Chana Chizik's first task upon
arrival in Palestine 30 years
ago, was to venture into the un-
settled areas where ultimately
she established a girl's farm
near Tel Aviv which later be-
came a children's farm. She was
considered a model mother, and
directed the home in Tel Aviv
until last year.

sor of Hebrew Language in Lit-
erature at the University of
Florence. In 1932 he was ap-
poipted _to the chair of Hebrew

Mrs. Gladstone Honors
Late Husband with
Israel Music School

•

In memory of her husband
Lee Gladstone, whose second
yartzeit will be on Jan. 5, Mrs.
Sadie Gladstone has undertaken
to equip the Spitzer School in
Jerusalem with a complete
music department.
The school, which has 1,300
women students, includes Buk-
haran, Yemenite, Iraqi and
Oriental Jewesses. .
It, is under the supervision of
Prof. U. Cassuto, one of Jeru-
salem's outstanding scholars.
The late Lee Gladstone had a
deep devotion for music. Mrs.
Gladstone deemed it a proper
memorial to build a department
of music in Israel. With the
help and advice of Julius and
Marguerite Chajes a piano was
purchased in Vienna and
shipped to Jerusalem, and a
great' collection of long playing
recordings, together with record-
ing machine and sheet music for
educational and r e c r eat ional
purposes, have already reached
the school. The formal open-
ing of the music department
will take place Jan. 5.
Mrs. Gladstone is planning to
visit Israel next spring and will
confer with heads of the music
school, covering the granting of
scholarships to outstanding ta-
lents.

`Cross-Section' Bulletin
To Cease Publication

NEW YORK, (AJP)—A "be-
hind-the-scenes" weekly Jewish
newsletter is scheduled to cease
publication because it lacks
funds to carry on for another
year.
Disclosure that "Cross-Section,
U.S.A.," launched two years ago
by publisher Allan Lesser, would
suspend publication was con-
tained in a final item in last
week's edition of the four page
mimeographed bulletin.
Lesser told the American Jew-
ish Press that one of the prime
problems in publishing a "be-
hind-the-scenes" newsletter was
a lack of education in the mar-
ket. "With so many organiza-
tional publications swamping
potential readers," he said,
"many of them are accustomed
to receiving material gratis. It's
a great difficulty that must be
overcome if independent news-
letters such as 'Cross-Section'
are to survive."
Labeling "the trend toward
organizational house organs" as
"dangerous," Lesser said that
"independent, alert journalism is
an absolute necessity for an edu-
cated Jewish community."
Lesser, in reporting that every
top Jewish leader on a national
level received his newsletter, es-
timated that 35 per cent of
"Cross-Section's" readership was
composed of rabbis.
