Building Trades Council Launches Jews Want to Leave Russia, Harvard Student Earlier Deadline for Our 3-Year Drive for Israel Trade Schools Finds During Festival 5718 Bosh ilashanah Issue GREGORY BARDACKE, labor relations director, Mayor LOUIS C. MIRIANI and MORRIS LIEBERMAN, chairman of the Detroit Histadrut Campaign, meet informally before the dinner of the Detroit Building Trades Council, which was held to establish a series of trade schbols in Israel. * * * Over 700 members of the De- troit Building Trades Council, several representatives from the construction industry and many city dignitaries were pres- ent last week at the kick-off dinner of a three-year program to sponsor trade schools in Is- rael's three major cities of Je- rusalem, Tel Aviv and Haifa. Over $100,000 will be raised by the series of annual dinners, with funds raised here to be matched by Histadrut, Israel's General Federation of Labor to erect the trade schools. Midway through the dinner, Louis C. Miriani, president of the Detroit Common Council, who was chairman for the eve- ning, rose to tell the audience that Mayor Albert E. Cob() had just died, and a moment of si- lent tribute passed before the program continued with greet- ings by Sen. Patrick V. McNa- mara. The Senator, brother of Thomas McNamara, secretary- treasurer of the Building Trades Council, who was toastmaster, stated that the Council had been aiding, for many years, "a strug- gling democracy to gain a foot- hold in an area of the world where there is no democracy." In saying that American unionism is drifting away from the moral basis upon which the union movement was founded, Sen. McNamara said, "We could now take a lesson from Israel where labor unionism is such a vital force to the growth of the country and its general wel- fare." Gregory Bardacke, of New York, director of the American Trade Union Council and a rep- resentative of Histadrut, was the evening's guest speaker. After paying tribute to Mayor Cobo, he said Detroit was fortunate that it had a man of Mayor Miriani's courage to replace h Tn. Bardacke was referring to the recent action of the new De- troit Mayor in refusing to attend an Arab rally in Detroit, which was to have been addressed by Syrian Ambassador Farid Zein- . nedine, the spreader of anti-Is- rael and anti-Jewish propagan- da who was declared persona non grata by the U. S. Govern- ment shortly after Miriani's action. Bardacke responded to the "generosity of trade unionists" who have worked to make pos- sible the erection of the new trade schools in Israel. He also explained that Israel not only was a trade union country, but had the first trade union gov- ernment in the history of the world. He condemned U.S. shipment of arms to Iraq, Jordan and Saudi Arabia and charged that the U.S. GIs who delivered these free arms were not permitted to wear their uniform in Jordan, while U.S. planes delivering the arms were forced to pay $75 for each plane landing with the free arms shipments. Bardacke concluded by urging the union members to work for peaceful solutions to the settle- ment of the Middle East prob- lem—not by arms but by eco- nomic and cultural exchanges with Arabs and Israel alike. Rabbi Moses Lehrman, of Cong. Bnai Moshe, gave the in- vocation. Dr. Lowdermlk Lauds Israel for Progress UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (JTA)—Israel is making "tre- mendous" progress in its gen- eral economy, and its advances in agriculture are particularly "striking," Dr. William Clay Lowdermilk, outstanding American agricultural author- ity, declared upon his return from a two-year stay in Israel as a technical assistance expert on behalf of the United Na- tions Food and Agriculture Or- ganization. He made his observations at a press conference arranged by the FAO at which he sum- marized his experiences in Is- rael. He had been assigned by FAO to help the Haifa Tech- nion develop a new depart- ment of agricultural engineer- ing. HOROWITZ•MARGARETEN GEFILTE FISH / \ luscious, fluffy fishballs... the taste of the town ! BY INF BAKERS OF "OVEN CRISP" (UNSALTED) MATIONS BOSTON (JTA)—The young Harvard law student who spoke. 10 to 12 hours a day to the Russian crowds in the street during. the recent Mos- cow World Youth Festival has returned with a report that "almost every Jew I spoke to over the . age of 25 expressed the desire to leave Russia ,--and go to Israel." New- George S. Abrams of New- ton, Mass., told the Jewish Ad- vocate of Boston that the Jews in the crowds he talked to in Moscow besieged him with questions about Jewish life in America. He said they wanted to know what Reform Judaism was, whether every American Jewish family attended syna- gogue services and about many other aspects of American Jewish life. Abrams said that the three synagogues in Moscow were well attended and that at the central one, where he went for worship, many Jews told him of the horrors experienced un- der Stalin and of their fear that, while conditions had im- proved under the post-Stalin leadership, life would return to what it had been under Stalin. The law student said that Moscow Jews were "intensely curious" about Israel and that the older Jews wanted "des- perately to leave Russia and go to Israel, but had no hope that they -would ever be al- lowed this privilege." Citing Prime. Minister David Ben- Gurion's speculation that 1,500,- 000 Russian Jews would emi- grate to Israel if they had the opportunity, Abrams said he felt the number would be even greater.

AR-PARV What is MAR-PARV? MAR-PARV is a Kosher and Pareve, Margarine — it was the first of its kind on the market. What is the advantage of MAR-PARV? Because - MAR-PARV is Pareve, it may be eaten at Jewish meat or dairy meals. See the "U" on the package— that "U" is the seal of the Union of Orthodox Jewish Con- gregations of America. They supervise the making of MAR-PARV from beginning to end. Why Have Persons of the JEWISH FAITH So Enthusiastically Received MAR-PARV? As stated, no d'airy products can be served with meat meals. Therefore, with meat meals, bread must be eaten dry — likewise dry potatoes, dry vegetables, etc. BUT — MAR-PARV Margarine can be used at meat meals! So, now, no more dry bread and "flat" vegetables at Kosher meat meals. How Does MAR-PRAV Differ from Other Margarines? For one thing, other margarines contain milk — This makes other margarines a dairy product. Also most mar- garines contain glycerides, which generally come from an animal source. This mixture of the "animal" and the milk makes it impossible for the common margarine to be Kosher. What Is MAR-PARV Made of? The ingredients used in the making of MAR-PARV are pure soybean oil, a mixture of ground soybeans and water, and lecithin. Each pound is enriched by the addition of 15,000 units of Vitamin A and 2,000 units of Vitamin D. What Doe's MAR-PARV Taste Like? MAR-PARV has a fresh, sweet taste. Can MAR-PRAV Be Used in Cooking or Baking? Now, baked goods made with MAR-PARV will be par- eve! But they couldn't be, if made with a dairy shortening or regular margarine.
