Rubiner Issues Federation Appeal
To Synagogues for Drive Support

Samuel H. Rubiner, president of the Jewish Welfare
Federation, called on rabbis of all congregations in Detroit to
include a "message of emergency" in their Passover services.
In a letter to the rabbis he said:
"As the Passover. holiday season approaches we move
more swiftly towards the manifold activities of the 1953
Allied Jewish Campaign. This year, the plight of the Jews
behind the Iron Curtain means that quick and concerted
action is needed.
"Once again we request your cooperation in order to
bring a message of emergency to your congregation. The
dollars that I are provided through the Allied Jewish Cam-
paign will mean aid to the Jews of Eastern Europe, aid to
the Jews of North Africa, aid to Israel and aid for our own
community projects whose work must be continued un-
abaited.
"We ask that you include in your sermon a message to
your congregation explaining the need_ for contributions to
the Campaign and request that pledges be made this year to
the fullest degree'possible."

Eisenhower Greets
Denver Jewish News

In a message of congratula-
tions to the Intermountain Jew-
ish News, of Denver, on its 40th
anniversary, President Eisen-
hower wrote:
"Your anniversary comes at a
time when freedom of the press
is but a bitter memory in- many
parts of the world where Jewish
people are again struggling
against ruthless oppression and
tryanny. This should emphasize
anew to all of us the need to
maintain the tradition of a free
and• courageous press, which has
been one of the chief glories of
American journalism."
The President also greeted
Robert Gamzey on his 10th an-
niversary as editor of the paper.

and became editor of the "Yid-
disher Kempfer," Yiddish lan-
guage organ of the Labor Zion-
ist Organization of America. In
1934 he became editor of the
group's English . magazine, "The
Jewish Frontier," holding both
posts until his death.
He was elected to the Jewish
Agency executive at the 22nd
World Zionist Congress in - Basle,
Switzerland, in 1946.
Dr. Greenberg, who was self--
taught in both Hebrew and Rus-
sian, joined the Zionist move-
ment at 15 and delivered his
first address at an illegal Zion-
ist demonstration in Russia.
While still in his teens he moved
to Odessa, then one of the great
centers of Russian Jewry, and
plunged into the Jewish cultural
and Zionist circles dominated
by such historic figures as Bia-
lik and Ussishkin.
Dr. Greenberg's advice on
opinions were always solicited
by the top Zionist leaders. In
recent years Prime Minister-
Ben - Gurion had frequently
sought his analysis of problems
affecting - the relation between
Israel and overseas Jewry.
Surviving are his wife and a
son, Emanuel, an attorney.
