JNF Council of Detroit Elects
Prof. S. M. Levin as President

Prof. Samuel M. Levin was
unanimously elected as presi-
dent of the Jewish National
Fund of Detroit at a meeting
of the Council held Tuesday,
at the Labor
Zionist Insti-
tute.
T h e meet-
ing also elect
ed nine vice
pr esidents,
each of whom
will be in
charge, a n d
act as chair-
m a n of a
phase of the
JNF program.
Prof. Levin
Elected were:
Morris J. Brandwine, chairman
of Foundation for JNF, who was
named first vice-president; Mrs.
Samuel Croll, special activities;
Mrs. Aaron Friedman, Blue-
White Boxes; William Hordes,
Foundation in Michigan; Ruben
H. Isaacs, publicity; Mrs. Sid-
ney Ravin, organizations; Mrs.
Max Stollman, Ladies Auxiliary;
Phillip Stollman, religious
groups; Philip Taubman, build-
ing.
Philmore A. Leemon was re-
elected treasurer; Maurice Ba-
ker, co-treasurer, and Miss Sel-
ma Friedman, recording secre-
tary.
Prof. Levin was recently hon-
ored at a dinner tendered him
by the faculty of Wayne State
University on the occasion of
his retirement from the uni-
versity. He has the distinction
of being the longes -'. active
member of the Wayne State
University faculty.
The Council heard several
brief reports of the activities
of the local JNF. Among them
were the president's r e p o r t,
submitted . by Ben Harold, who
served as president for two
years; the treasurer's report by
Leemon and the executive direc-
tor's by Percy Kaplan.
Other reviews of year-end ac-
tivities were given by Brand-
wine for JNF Foundation; Mrs.
Max Stollman, president of the
Ladies Auxiliary; Harry Kam-
iner, for the Landsmanshaften,
and Harry E. Citrin, chairman
of the Peter S. and Pauline
Goldstein Forest.
In his survey of JNF work
in Detroit, Kaplan reported
that despite the economic reces-
sion, Detroit JNF's income from
its traditional activities from
Oct. 1 to May 31 is greater
than that of the same period
for the preceding year.
Among the outstanding fea-
tures of the year's activities,
according to Kaplan's report,
and those which brought out
the popularity of JNF and the
high regard in which it is held
in the community, were the
presentations of the Golden
Book certificates . on the stage
of the Shubert Theater, last
Oct. 7, to the leading members
of the cast of "The Diary of
Anne Frank," Joseph Schild-

-

kraut, Maria Palmer, Abigail
Kellogg and Lou Jacobi.
Another "historic event," he
said, was the Ladies Auxiliary
Donor in January. The Founda-
tion of Jewish National Fund
"gained in prestige" and in the
number of prominent indivi-
duals who have purchased
Nachlas and Miles of Trees,
etc.

ed at Tuesday's meeting in-
cluded the following:

Klutznick Nixes
Bnai Brith Draft
for Third Term

CLEVELAND, (JTA)—Philip
M. Klutznick said "no" to a
resolution at a Bnai Brith Dis-
trict 2 convention here propos-
ing to draft him for a third term
as national president of the
Bnai Brith organization. The
resolution, which was adopted
by acclamation, urged all Bnai
Brith districts to join in "a gen-
uine draft" of Klutznick.
Addressing a banquet which
concluded the convention, Klutz-
nick told the delegates he would
express "no
personal pref-
erence" for a
successor who
will be elected
at the national
convention i
Jerusalem in ,
May, 1959.
"The decision
will 'be the
delegates', not
mine," he said.
The Bna
Br it h presi-
Klutznick
dent had per-
sonally urged a two-term limita-
tion at the organization's last
triennial national convention in
1956. The convention then
adopted the proposal, but voted
down his request that it be made
retroactive to include his first
term. Bnai Brith by-laws, there-
fore, make him eligible for an-
other three-year term.
In telling the delegates that
he intends to abide by his own
1956 decision to limit his presi-
dencY to two terms, Klutznick
`consistent with the

in 1920. He has been an ardent
participant in religious, philan-
thropic and landsmanshaften

The Freedmans, who already

By the establishment of
nachlahs through JNF, newly-
arrived immigrants . to Israel are
drawn into agriculture, granting
independence to the families
and strengthening the economy
and security of Israel.
