Claims Deadline
Set at Sept. 30
The Jewish Social Service Bu-
reau, local representative of the
United Restitution Organization,
announces that the deadline for
filing restitution claims for dam-
ages suffered under the Nazi
regime is Sept. 30, 1955.
All persons eligible under the
German indemnification law
must submit their claims to
German indemnification author-
ities by that time. Persons al-
ready making application but
wishing to make additional
claims also must file by Sept. 30.
By regulation of the German
Federal Republic, the outstand-
ing amounts to be paid for de-
privation of liberty have now
been releasen to claimants. Per-
sons represented by URO in the
prosecution of the claims and
who have already received the
first installment do not have to
contact the German authorities,
as payment is being supervised
by URO.
Mrs. Irina Bernstein, of the
JSSB staff, states that it is her
experience that many people do
not know they are entitled to
claim immigration expenses or
loss in transfer transactions.
Others have not made any
claims for restitution at all, al-
though they are eligible for com-
pensation.
For information or assistance
in processing the proper forms,
call Mrs. Bernstein, 13327 Lin-
wood, TO. 8-2490.

Local Groups Set
Memorial Tribute
To Israeli Writer

essayist and editor of the Israeli
Hebrew monthly, "Gilyonoth,"
will be held at 9 p.m., Saturday,
in the Esther Berman Bldg.
auditorium, 18977 Schaefer.
Under the sponsorship of
Kvutzah Ivrith and the Hebrew
Teachers Association of Detroit,
the program. will include a talk
by Dr. Ephraim Shmueli on "the
mission idea" expressed in Mr.
Lamdon's poetic
writings.
Others on the
program include
Morris Nobel,
speaking on
Lamdon's prose;
Rabbi Jacob
Chinitz, outlin-
, ing the religious
content in his
works, Bernard
Mr. Lamdon Isa.acs, who will
speak on his personality; and
Israel Elpern, who will recite
Lamdon's latest poems.
Ezri Atzmon, the Hebrew poet,
will be the evening's chairman
Addresses will be delivered both
in Hebrew and English.
Mr. Lamdon, who died re-
cently in Tel Aviv, wrote exten-
sively in poetry and prose. His
greatest poem is considered by
many to be "Masadah," which
contains the words to the popu-
lar marching song of the Pal-
mach, "The Chain Has Not Been
Broken." The song has been sung
by the settlers and those in the
resistance movement, before and
during the war for liberation.
Deeply concerned with the
cultural life of Jews in America,
Mr. Lamdon established a liter-
ary bridge between American
and Israeli Jewries by dedicating
an issue of Gilyanoth to Jewish
life in America.
In his memory, the Israeli
government has decided to cre-.
ate a fund for Hebrew writers.

How green the grass in morning
dew!
The °waking birds rise to the
light
With pledge of bloom with vari-
ed hue
In web-like tendrils, in a flight
To reach the sun and breathe
again
The golden life, the aureate
breath,
The silent vow, the sweet re-
frain:
"From birth through life and
unto death— and Ad Ultra."
