Needy Jews of Detroit Area
Get Helping Hand on Passover
Jews scattered around the city
of Detroit—aged persons who live
in downtown slum areas, needy
refugee families living in flats, re-
tarded patients in state hospitals—
will again benefit from the chari-
table spirit of their fellow Jews
on this Passover.
Harry Shulman, president of the
Mo'os Hitim Organization for
more than 15 years, is assisted by
his wife in supplying matzo pro-
ducts, bottles of Passover wine
and funds for holiday needs to
700 families. Funds are contribu-
ted by synagogues, organizations
and individuals.
Those who are unable to pick
up the parcels at the distribution
point, Cong. Beth Tefilo Emanuel
Tikvah, are serviced by truck.
Assisting in this vast project, Mor-
ris Dorn and young members of
Beth Tefilo take the parcels to
Jewish hospital patients, as well

Joseph Megdell, general cam-
paign chairman, announced that
Flint's United Jewish. Appeal total
raised so far in 1967 has reached
$237,000. This is ahead of the 1966
pace.
Megdell said that with almost
80 per cent of this year's goal of
$300,000 already secured, he felt
that the goal would be reached.
He urged all workers to complete
their cards in the next two weeks.
as needy residents of "off-Wood-
ward" hotels.
To reach all those requiring
assistance, the volunteer organi-
zation coordinates lists of names
supplied by all relief-giving
agencies in Detroit covered by
the Wayne County Department
of Social Welfare. These include
some 300 elderly persons.
Contributions will help provide
the average family of five with a
check for $28, plus 25 pounds of
matzo and matzo products and two
bottles of wine.
The Co-operative Council of the
League of Jewish Women, which
also provides lists of names and
contributes to Mo'os Hitim, will
again sponsor its Passover seder
luncheon for 220 patients from
Ypsilanti and Northville state
hospitals, Lapeer Home and Train-
ing School and, for the first time,
Wayne County General Hospital.
The luncheon is to take place at
Oak Manor Kosher Caterers
Thursday.
The 16 member organizations of
Co-operative Council will provide
the funds for the fourth annual
function, at which Rabbi Solomon
Gruskin, chaplain at the institu-
tions, will preside. Traditional
Passover foods will be served to
the men, women and children, and
there will be a brief service.
Rabbi Gruskin, who also serves
as chaplain for the federal prison
at Milan, said the two Jewish
prisoners will be serviced in Ann
Arbor.

Bnai Brith will release a first-
day cover of the Post Office De-
partment's new 20-cent James
- Audubon airmail stamp.
The cover includes a portrait of
Julius Bien, one of the leading
American lithographers of the
19th Century and president of
Bnai Brith from 1857-60 and 1868-
1900. Bien produced the first
American folio of Audubon's
"Birds of America," which con-
tained the naturalist-artist's aqua-

new airmail stamp.
The "Columbia Jay" was ori-

cent stamp issued as part of a
commemorative series on the works
of noted American painters. The
stamp, one of the most popular
commemoratives ever offered by
the Post Office, had a press run
of 175,175,000.
Copies of the first-day cover,
cancelled at the Post Office's Au-
dubon Station in New York City,
are available at 50 cents each from
the Klutznick Exhibit Hall, Bnai
Brith, 1640 Rhode Island Ave.,
N.W., Washington, D.C., 20036.
Purchasers should enclose a self-
addressed stamped envelope with
their orders.
