City of Hope Businessmen's Group
Plans Annual Champagne Dinner Nov, 7
The annual Champagne Din-
ner of the Detroit Business-
men's Group of the City of Hope
is planned for Nov. 7, at the
Statler Hotel, it is announced
by N. R. Epstein, president.
Beginning with a cocktail
hour at 5:30 p.m., dinner will be
served at 7, followed by a pro-
gram, which will feature an
array of sparkling talent.
Bob Hall, popular master of
ceremonies, will introduce the
evening's guest artist, Georgie
Jessel. Mickey Woolf and his
orchestra will supply music for
dancing to follow.
Guest speakers include Ben
Horowitz, director of the na-
tional medical center—the City
of Hope—at Duarte, Calif., and
Rabbi Jacob E. Segal, spiritual
leader of Adas Shalom Syna-
gogue.
The City of Hope, located 20
miles east of Los Angeles has
been called one of the humani-
tarian wonders of the world.
Its motto is "no one pays who
enters and no one enters who
can pay."
It is for this project that the
Detroit Businessmen's Group,
under the guidance of chairman
Eugene Epstein, has assumed a
$100,000 goal, all of which helps
to defray the cost of curing
tuberculosis, cancer and leuke-
mie patients.
A non-sectarian hospital under
Jewish auspices, the City of
Hope shuns the word "charity,"
as each patient is treated as if
he were a paying guest.
Maintenance of the '75 acre
plant costs $10,000, and a back-
log of debts amounts to some
$750,000. Yet, care for patients
goes on, under the guidance of
Ben Horowitz, its national di-
rector, as though "the red ink
were blue."
Founded 40 years ago, in `two
army tents, City of Hope has
grown to a 482 bed hospital. Its
former national director, Samuel

1 Tercentenary Greeting
From Mayor to Mayor
NEW YORK, (JTA) — Dr. Is-
rael Goldstein, president of the
American Jewish Congress, pre-
sented to Mayor Robert F. Wag-
ner a special message of greet-
ing from Mayor joie de Rego
Maciel of Recife, Brazil, site of
the first Jewish settlement in
the New World.
Recife, where pioneer immi-
grants founded a Jewish com-
munity in 1634, is considered
the "'fountainhead" of the Jew-
ish community of the United
States. The first 23 Jews who
arrived in this country in 1654
came from Recife. In his mes-
sage, the Recife mayor ex-
pressed the "rejoicing of the
people at the current Jewish
tercentenary festivities.

That Suez Pact Will Lessen Tensions
LONDON, (JTA)—The British
government recognizes Israel's
concern over the Anglo-Egyptian
pact on the Suez Canal, but is
convinced that the agreement
will result in a general easing
of tension in the Middle East,
Foreign Secretary Sir Anthony
Eden told Israel Ambassador
Eliahu Elath in a letter handed'
the Israel diplomat.
The letter said that in the
agreement both governments
have pledged that the pact has
no agressive purpose, that no
great amount of armaments will
be surrendered with the bases,
and that the cornerstone of
Britain's Middle East policy re-
mains the Tripartite DeClara-
ton,
Sir Anthony declared that the
British government is convinced
however, that the Anglo-Egyp-
' tian agreement "will result in a
general lessening of tension in
the Middle East. By increasing
confidence between the Arab
states and the West it should
facilitate a solution of the ma-
jor problems in the area."
In reference to the Israeli
objections to the British hand-
ing the largest and one of the
best equipped military bases
in the world to the Egyptians,
Sir Anthony repeated the
"assurance given your Charge
d'Affaires by Selwyn Lloyd on
the 12th of July, that there is
no question of handing over
large quantities of arma-
ments."
The British government, Sir
Anthony emphasized, attaches
"great importance to friendly
relations with Israel, as with all
countries of the Middle East,"
and is prepared to do all in its
power. "in cooperation with the
United Nations and like-minded
governments, to help bring
about a peaceful settlement of
the tragic disputes between Is-
- rael and the Arab states. Such
a settlement is essential" the
I letter continued, "if the coun-
tries of the Middle East are to
develop their full prosperity and

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — T h e
discovery in Israel of the rem-
nants of a settlement believed
to be some 50,000 years old was
announced by its discoverer, Dr.
M. Stekelis, a lecturer on pre-
history at the Hebrew Univer-
sity.
Dr. Stekelis uncovered a cave
near Zichron Yaacov, some 25
miles south of Haifa, which con-
tained the bones of deer, wol-
ves, lions and other animals
which apparently served as food
for the prehistoric inhabitants
of the area, and hunting wea-
pons. The cave was unearthed
more than 21 feet below the
surface. It is presumed that
two landslides covered up the
cave and preserved the bones
and implements. The landslides
are believed to have , occurred
50,000 and 25,000 years ago.
The annual rally of the Israeli
Exploration and Archaeological
Institute opened at Migdal As-
calon, in southern Israel, with
an address by President Ben
Zvi. The theme of this year's
meeting is "T h e Philistines."
The scholars visited such an-
cient Philistine sites as Isdud
and Gat Ascalon.

Note Welcomed by Israelis
LONDON, (JTA)—Foreign Sec-
retary Sir Anthony Eden's let-
ter to Israel Ambassador Eliahu
Elath attempting to allay Is-
rael's concern over the conse-
quences of • the British surrend-
er of the Suez Canal and its
military bases to the Egyptians
was welcomed by Israeli diplo-
matic circles here as an impor-
tant and positive landmark in
the development of Anglo-Is-
raeli relations.
It is believed that the letter
opens avenues for further,
friendly discussion of the issues
which continue to give Israel
cause for concern, particularly
in • view of Anglo-American
plans for arming the Arab
states and the issue of free pass-
age through the. Suez Canal.
