to it.
Born in the Province of Po-
dolsk, in the Ukraine, Mr. Kogan
came to this country on March
5, 1914. Less than three years
later, he was in the uniform of
our country's Army serving for
17 months—nine months over-
seas as a private first class. He

WHY ZIONISM?
REV. ARON GROSSBARD
I regard as imperative the need for a Zionist Organization for the well-
being of the American Jewish Community .
Because it is spiritually and culturally rooted in Jewish histolry, Zionism
can make American Jews conscious of their spiritual link to Jews everywhere
and to Israel in particular
