WITH FORMULA '99'
WHEREAS The Jewish people answered this threat to their
existence with an armed resistance that lasted over
one month and reaffirmed to the Nazi regime the
determination of these people to fight for freedom
from oppress-ion and the right to life, and
WHEREAS The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising makes clear the fact
that only through the full realization of the threat of
racial and religious prejudice, which is present in
many of today's societies, can we hope to prevent
ghetto explosions executed by the oppressed, and
WHEREAS We must heed the message of the Warsaw Ghetto
Uprising which tells us that we, as a nation, are re-
sponsible for preventing injustice directed toward
any people or their culture and this can only be done
through understanding and positive action
NOW, THEREFORE, I Jerome P. Cavanagh, Mayor of the City of
Detroit, do hereby proclaim April 13 to May 13 as the
commemoration of the
25th Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

ish people who rose without great armament but
with great courage to fight to maintain their heritage
as well as their ancient humanitarian philosophy.

let organizations know of the pro-
grams designed to cope with prob-
lems cited in the Kerner Com-
mission report on civil - disorders.

Montreal's Man and His
World Will Open May 17
Opening May 17, through Oct. 14,
Montreal's Man and His World, is
planned for a five-month season
this year. This exposition is the
successor to the internationally-
acclaimed Expo 67, with many as-
pects making it an entirely newly
conceived world exhibition.
The national pavilions with their
striking architecture, plus other
building and facilities remaining
represent a total of more than 80
major structures constructed at a
cost of more than $250,000,000
The overall investment in con-
struction and land that Man and
His World is inheriting and putting
to use is nearly $1,000,000,000.
The exhibits of 44 nations will
be as originally presented, while
others will be entirely new and
produced by the staff of Man and
His World. Poland, not represented
at Expo last year, will exhibit for
the first time.
Missing from Montreal's Man
and His World Exposition will be
the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia and
Czechoslovakian pavilions.
The United States' 20-story plas-
tic globe, will become a botannical
garden and aviary and has been
renamed "The Biosphere."
For $499, Lufthansa
does more than give you
a 15-day Italian tour.
It keeps you from
feeling like a tourist.
We call it the "Roman Sojourn." It's our name for a special
tour during which we try to do for you what you'd do for your-
self if you had a real home-town knowledge of every major
city in Italy.
We take care of all the usual traveler-tormenting details
about food, lodgings,. transportation, tickets, tips. All you dO
is enjoy yourself.
We'll start by jetting you to Munich and give you a day in the
gorgeous Austrian Alpine country. Then we'll smooth your
way through Milan, Florence, Pisa, Rome, Naples, Capri,
Pompeii, and later take you back over the Swiss Alps to
Zurich, Stuttgart and Frankfurt.
For fifteen days we guide you to the places you want to sit",
help you do what you want to do. And if some morning or
afternoon you'd like to skip something; that's all right, too.
Fact is, long before your Roman Sojourn is over, you'll tell
yourself that if you'd known Lufthansa could make seeing
Italy this easy, you would have gone last year.
