Rabbis of 3 Branches Ask Community to Keep 'Sanctity of Sabbath' Dec. 31 Dr. Samuel Krohn, president of the Jewish Community Council, announced that the Council has forwarded to all of its member or- ganizations a statement by Detroit area rabbis calling attention to the fact that the secular New Year's Eve occurs on a Friday this year. Signed by Rabbi Leizer Levin, president of the Council of Ortho- dox Rabbis; Rabbi Benjamin H. Gorrelick, chairman, Rabbinical Assembly, Michigan Region; and Rabbi Leon Fram, chairman, Mich- igan Association of Reform Rabbis, the statement calls upon Jewish or- ganizations to respect the sanctity of the Sabbath by refraining from the sponsorship of activities that conflict with the observance of Sabbath services. Further, the rabbis empha- sized that "parties and celebra- tions associated with New Year's Eve can be neither in keeping with the spirit nor respectful of an appropriate observance of the Sabbath." The statement concluded, "The leadership and example estab- lished by our organizations can contribute, in this instance, to our dignity and self-esteem as a com- munity." In forwarding the statement to presidents of Council-affiliated or- ganizations, Dr. Krohn noted that the statement corresponds with policy approved and adopted by the Council's Delegate Assembly. First Massachusetts Legislator Isaac Rosnosky, an American 19th Century legislator, was the first Jew to serve in the Massa- chusetts State Legislature when he was elected to that office in 1880.

MARSHALL MOHEL Serving at Homes and Hospitals DI 1-9909 Rabbi Shaiall Zachariash Mohel Phone: 863-0256 Detroit Prominent Detroit physicians, members of the special group formed to assist in the work of the Hebrew University in Jeru- salem, last Saturday night created the foundation for the Reuben L. Kahn Laboratory in Immunology at the Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School in Jerusalem. More than 250 doctors and their wives joined in the initial task, with gifts to assure the construc- tion of the laboratory in honor of the eminent medical authority. Two giants in medicine, Dr. Kahn and Dr. Albert B. Sabin, were among the evening's speakers, at a black tie dinner at the Statler Hilton. Other speakers were Dr. Bernard Cherrick, executive vice- president of the Hebrew Univer- sity; Drs. Abraham Becker and Max L. Lichter, co-chairmen of the physicians' committee. The Hanukah lights were lit by Charles E. Feinberg, who also re- cited a Hanukah prayer, and the invocation was by Rabbi Milton Rosenbaum. Dr. Kahn, in a speech respond- ing to the honors accorded him and to the certificate presented by Dr. Becker, spoke of the im- portance of research and com- mended such efforts in Israel as serving the needs of all man• kind. He expressed confidence that discoveries as a result of research in Israel will have an impact on peace efforts between Israel and the Arabs because of the benefits Arabs will derive from them. Dr. Kahn placed greater empha- sis on the importance of the im- munology laboratory to Israel and the need for research as a contri- bution to science and to mankind than on the fact that his name will be honored by it. Dr. Sabin heaped praise on the Hebrew University and especially commended Hadassah for the "re- markable job" the women's Zion- ist organization is doing in its en- couragement to research activities and its support of the medical pro- gram in Israel. He said there is need for an additional four-and- a-half million dollars to provide vitally needed buildings for the medical school and hospital in Jerusalem and urged Detroit's physicians to assist in this effort. Dr. Sabin regretted that Heb- rew University faculties are scattered all over Jerusalem, and he pleaded for support of the new building projects as a way of solving this problem. Dr. Cherrick pointed to the im- portance of the Hebrew Univer- sity as a heterogeneous result of 41 years of effort since the univer- Interest Rate Raised Dec. 7—To Dr. and Mrs. Stuart by American Savings Falk (Lois Ash), 24649 Harden, American Savings & Loan As- Southfield, a son, Neil Allan. sociation announced that it would * * * increase earnings payments to all Dec. 5—To Mr. and Mrs. Sam regular savings customers from 4 Pearistein (Sophie Hyman), 14161 per cent to 41/4 per cent, begin- Victoria, Oak Park, a daughter, ning Jan. 1.

"The university shows how a 20th century democratic state conducts itself," Dr. Cherrick said. Describing the cross sec- tion of the student population, he told of the positive ways in which friendships are being created at the university with representatives of underdevel- oped countries. "Our efforts denote a positive Jewishness and are not based on pressures from anti-Semitism," the university vice-president stated. He took pride in the fact that the He- brew University is a university - for all peoples.
