Mechanarama Dinner
Sets New High Mark
For Allied Campaign

A major, annual campaign
event was added to the list of im-
portant Allied Jewish campaign
efforts when representatives of
the automotive and allied indus-
tries and financial life of Detroit
gathered at the Mechanarama
Dinner.
The dinner, held in the Sher-
aton-Cadillac Hotel, featured
Reuven Dafni, Consul of Israel
in New York, as guest speaker.
Guests of honor included:
Denny Darren, vice-president,
National Bank of Detroit; James
Toohey, Jr., purchasing agent,
steel and scrap, Ford Motor Co.;
Don Valley, vice-president, Na-
tional Bank of Detroit; G u y
Ropp, president, Industrial Na-
tional Bank of Detroit; Allen W.
Merrell, assistant to the presi-
dent, Ford Motor Co.; Emlyn
Lloyd, general purchasing agent,
Chrysler Corp.
Jack 0. Lefton, who, with Na-
than Kolb, is co-chairman of the
mechanical trades division in the
1955 campaign, introduced Kolb
and the guests of honor.
"One of the great advantages
of participating in the cam-
paign," said Lefton, "is the op-
portunity of working with men
you are proud to associate with.
It is through a cause like ours
that we have experienced the
fine element of fellowship that
results in a concerted effort for
a common good." -
Max M. Fisher, treasurer of
the Jewish Welfare Federation
and 1955 pre-campaign chair-
man, was ch4irman of the din-
ner.
"This gathering," declared
Fisher, "represents a segment of
a great industry. Our contribu-
tions to the ever-expanding
processes of mechanization are
felt everywhere.
"Similarly, we are working as
a unit to assure a successful
campaign to meet human needs
throughout the world.
"Last fall, I was privileged to
visit Europe and Israel. I was
able to see the vital work car-
ried out for our people through
such drives as our Allied Jewish
campaign.
"I learned the full meaning of
the phrase none of us can be
free while some are in chains—
and its 20th century counter-
part—that none of us can be
content while others suffer mis-
ery and insecurity.
"Our presence here shows our
interest," Fisher added. "Our ac-
tions will demonstrate our de-
votion."

in "Sala-Chopin" concert hall
arranged by the Jewish National
Fund.
Highly laudatory reports of
her concerts appeared in the
Yiddish as well as Mexican
newspapers.

In the front-page review of
her concert, "Der Weg" (El
Camino) of Mexico City re-
ported: "The large audience
applauded each of Emma
Schaver's numbers endlessly
and literally refused to per-
mit her to leave the stage."

Mrs. Schaver was accompanied
to Mexico by her husband, Mor-
ris L. Schaver.
