D. C. Poor People's Campaign Draws Support From Many Jewish Groups NEW YORK (JTA)—The peace- ful Poor People's Campaign and the National Solidarity Day dem- onstration Wednesday in Washing- ton were endorsed by Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, 1 .a b o r and civic groups representing 5,000,000 New York residents. The partici- pating organizations chartered hun- dreds of buses to take members to the demonstration. Expressing support for the cam- paign and the demonstration were, among others, Rev. William S. Van Meter of the Protestant Council of New York City; Father Edward Dugan of the Catholic Archdiocese of New York; Rabbi Henry Sieg- man, executive vice-president of the §yn agogue Council of America; and Richard Cohen, assistant exec- utive director of the American Jewish Congress. The Jewish Community Council of Greater Washington and the Na- Temple Beth Jacob Re-Elects Horwitz Thomas A. Horwitz, was re- elected president of Temple Beth Jacob, Pontiac, at the annual congregational meeting recently. Other officers elected were Dr. M. Kenneth Dickstein a n d Dr. Harold L. Bienenfeld, vice presidents : Mrs. Herman Sten- buck, secretary; and Morton Metzger treas- urer. Elected to Horwitz three-year terms on the board of directors were Dr. Melvin Cherno, Judge Arthur Kollin, and Charles K. Zamek. Temple Beth Jacob, oldest Re- form congregation in Oakland County, will celebrate 45 years of service to Oakland County communities with a series of concerts, art exhibits and lec- tures. Horwitz, president of Michigan Fluorescent Light Corps, has been in many civic an _ d fraternal or- ganizations. He is a past president and area governor of Toastmasters Club, Council of Human Relations, Pontiac Bnai Brith and Pontiac Zionist Organization. Former vice president of the Michigan Region ZOA, he also is former vice presi- dent of Michigan Bnai Brith and the Free Press Fresh Air Camp, past master of Flower Lodge F & AM: and Monarch of Lalla Reek Grotto. Many bronzes he has sculptured are primarily of religious nature on Old Testament themes, and have been exhibited in art gal- leries throughout the country. tional Council of Jewish Women endorsed and supported the move. Kosher corned beef sandwiches were distributed to more than 1,000 policemen participating in the march. A militant Jewish youth group, "Jews for Urban Justice," learned that no provision had been made for feeding the New York Negro policemen and firemen who came to serve as volunteer mar- shals. The young people canvassed kosher delicatessens which, upon learning of the situation, contrib- uted the makings of the sand- wiches. The group, which feels that Jews should do more to aid the war on poverty and personally identify themselves, acted independently. They assembled early Wednesday to make and wrap the sandwiches for distribution in the course of the demonstration. Jews for Urban Justice recently generated a con- troversy here by publicly urging Jewish merchants, synagogues and groups to make a greater response to the needs of the poor. The Jewish Labor Committee withdrew its support from the mo- bilization after Bayard Rustin step- ped out as coordinator. The Ameri- can Jewish Committee, following a special meeting Tuesday, "reaf- firmed its support" of the mobil- ization "conditioned upon receipt and approval of the revised call for the mobilization, set of 99 points (demands made on the gov- ernment) and program of mobiliza- tion." The . Synagogue Council of Amer- ica, central coordinating agency for the six national rabbinic and congregational bodies of the three branches of Judaism, "reaffirmed" its support of the demonstration. The American Jewish Congress maintained its full support of the mobilization and chartered buses to carry members from New York to Washington to participate. Lebanese Kidnap 5 Boys, but Red Cross Interferes TEL AVIV (JTA)—Lebanese po- licemen kidnapped five Israeli high school boys from Israel territory June 12, but they were returned safely the same afternoon following representations by the International Red Cross. The five youngsters, all seventh graders at Haifa high school, were part of a group of 12 students spending a two-week period of na- tional service at Kibutz Misgav Am, near the Lebanese border. They were working in a field when two Lebanese policemen seized them at rifle point and forced them to cross the border into Lebanon. As soon as the inci- dent was known, Israeli authorities approached the International Red Cross which promptly intervened. Detroiters Aid Yemenite Settlement Special to Jewish News GIVAT YEARIM, Israel — There are 550 residents in this Yemenite settlement west of Jerusalem, in what was previously known as the Jerusalem Corridor. It started in 1950 with 350 adults and a few chil- dren. Today there are 340 children in the group of 550 and the settlers —seven of whom are of army age —are developing fruit orchards and have begun to expand a prosperous settlement. This site has a special interest for Detroiters because of the projects made possible by a generous gift from Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Ko- baker and Mr. Kobaker's sister, Mrs. Joseph (Sally) Handleman. The settlement's synagogue is known as the Beth David Syna- gogue and is in memory of David Kobaker, who was a well known De- troiter, the donor's brother, whose will also provided for a JNF forest in his memory in Israel. Primary among the memorials established by the Kobakers and Mrs. Handleman are those in tri- bute to their parents Jacob and Etka and sister Jeanette. The Jeanette Kobaker Kinder- garten is the specific memorial to the latter. The Givat Yearim Moshav also has a Samuel and Dora Kobaker Playground. David Gabai, secretary of the Moshav, speaks with deep appreci- ation of the Kobaker-Handleman gift. "Thanks to the Kobaker fam- ily, we have been provided with many facilities for which we are grateful," he said. "Now we hope to expand the synagogue and cultural facilities which already have be- come too small for our needs." The entire Kobaker project was developed under the supervision of the Karen Kayemet Lelsrael (Jew- ish National Fund), and under the direction of Hanan Yarden, a pio- neer Israeli JNF administrator.
