The Suburban Community
Humphrey Talk at Emanu-E1 soc
Ambitious Project in Suburbs
(
By the Oak-Woodser
One of the most ambitious
undertakings ever tried by a
suburban community group will
be attempted this weekend as
Temple Emanu-El brings to De-
troit U.S. Senator Hubert H.
Humphrey.
The Minnesota Senator will be
making his first appearance this
year in the Detroit area. His
talk will have special signifi-'
cance at this time when the
Middle East is a hotbed of Arab
nationalism which, to date, has
prevented peace in the area.
Sen. Humphrey's specific topic
will be "America's Stake in
Israel." He will speak on Sun-
day evening, at the Royal Oak
High School auditorium, 709 N.
Washington, in Royal Oak.
Earlier, we mentioned that
the program is one of the
leading projects undertaken
in suburban South Oakland
County. The Royal Oak High
School auditorium seats up-
wards of 1200 people, so that
a full house is almost a must
to break even on expenses.
Although Temple Emanu-El is
currently constructing its own
building, on 10 Mile, between
Coolidge and Greenfield, Satur-
day's program is not a fund-
raising venture.
According to Dr. and Mrs.
Abraham Becker, who are in
charge of arrangements for the.
lecture, it is sponsored as a serv-
ice to the community, to inform
the temple's membership as well
as the community-at-large of
the major crisis that now exists
the Middle East and what
we, as American Jews, and our
Government should do to avert
war and aid struggling Israel.
Pending the successful out-
come of the Humphrey lecture,
the congregation is making sub-
seqiient plans for a series of
speakers. These programs are
designed to add to the cultural
program of Jewish residents not
only of the suburbs, but of the
entire Metropolitan Detroit
area.
Actually, it would be difficult
to find a more competent speak-
er to talk about the Middle
East. Sen. Humphrey, known as
one of the Senate's most liberal
Democratic leaders, has been a
constant champion of the Jew-
ish state's right to exist in the
Middle East.
He had not yet been elected
to office in 1948 when Israel had
achieved her independence, but
since taking office early in 1949
he has Worked with other legis-
lators to provide the young state
with , American financial assis-
tance -in attempting to fortify
Israel's economy.
In the current emergency
situation which now exists in
the Middle East, he has gone
on record as a supporter of
defensive arms for the young
democracy, and has joined
other liberals in Congress in
attempting to get a State De-
partment commitment for a
border guarantee to Israel.
In many other fields, besides
