Zionists to Discuss
`Religion in Israel'
symposium on "Religion in
Israel" will be the feature of
the annual meeting of the Zion-
ist Organization of Detroit, to
be held at 8:30 p.m., Wednes-
day, at the Esther Berman
Branch of the United Hebrew
Schools.
The viewpoints of the vari-
ous Zionist ideologies will be
presented by a panel of promi-
nent local leaders, including
Harold Berke, Labor Zionist
Organization; Mrs. Max Frank,
Hadassah; and Irving W. Schlus-
sel, Mizrachi-Hapoel Hamizrachi
Organization. Rabbi Moses
Lehrman of the host ZOD group
will be moderator.
Religion in the public schools
of Israel, the authority of rab-
binic courts over marriage and
divorce, and the controversy
over the need for diversified
religious viewpoints in Israel
are among the issues to be con-
sidered. A question and answer
period will follow.
The program is part of a
"This Is Israel" series presented
by the ZOD this year for the
purpose of reviewing contem-
porary life and problems in
Israel. Morris M. Jacobs and
Rabbi_ Milton Arm, ZOD pro-
gram committee co-chairmen,
planned the series.
The election of officers and
board members and a review
of the year's activities by the
president, Milton S. Marwil, will

ing- Refr4shtnents will be served

Refugees to Israel
Bring Livestock
For
the first time in Israel's his-
tory, immigrants arrived here
with livestock. The Jewish
Agency revealed it has made
arrangements for more im-
migrants to bring livestock
with them.
Seven Jewish farmers from
Poland arrived at Haifa with
61 head of cattle. Their fam-
ilies arrived two days earlier.
All of them will settle near
Affuleh after the cattle . are
released from -quarantine.
There are 200,000 Jews
throughout the world willing
to emigrate to Israel this year
and Israel plans to take in
100,000 of them during 195'7,
Zalman Shragai, chairman of
the Jewish Agency's immi-
gration department, said here.
The fact that Jews were com-
ing from countries where
there has been no Zionist or
Jewish education for more
than 30 years represented
the greatest victory for the
Zionist idea, he stated.

U.S. Tanker at Elath
LONDON, (JTA)—A second
American tanker, loaded with
oil, has reached the Israeli port
of Elath, according to a cable
from Amman, Jordan. The re-
port originated in Aqaba, Jor-
dan, which is a short distance
from Elath at the head of the
Gulf of Aqaba.
A report from Damascus said
that the Arab League boycott
headquarters there yesterday
officially announced the black-
listing of the American oil
tanker "Kern Hills" for carry-
ing oil to Israel. The "Kern
Hills" will henceforth be barred
from all Arab ports, the an-
nouncement said, adding that
any other American ship calling
at Elath will be dealt with
similarly.
