32—Friday, May 8, 1970 THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS Danish Lutheran Minister Stresses Need to Pass on Holocaust Lesson In recognition of the Danish role in the rescue of Jews during the Holocaust, Shaarit Haplaytah (Survivors of 1945) presented a certificate for a number of trees in the Martyrs' Forest to the min- ister of a Danish church here. Rev. James E. Garrison of St. Peter's Danish Evangelical Lu- theran Church of Detroit accepted the certificate at the survivors' annual Memorial Academy in memory of the Six Million, Sunday afternoon at Cong. Bnai Moshe. Rev. Garrison told the audience of 300, all wearing black ribbons of mourning, that he was "over- whelmed by the task" of speaking at the memorial meeting. But "as I grow older, I sense the urgency of remembering, of telling the message of faith and of the Ilolo- caust. "Eli Wiese! asks, 'After Ausch- witz can we believe in man?' Wiesel says we must. After Auschwitz, can we believe in God? Wiesel says we must. After Auschwitz, can we believe there may be other Auschwitz events? Yes, we must believe that there may be. I must tell my son the message of those three questions and those three answers. Yes." One woman who lost her parents and family in the Holocaust brought her four American-born daughters — the youngest age 1 — to the meeting "because I want them to know," she said. Habonim, the Zionist youth group, was represented by five girls who read from "I Never Saw Another Butterfly," the volume of poetry written by youngsters age 10-18 who were inmates of Terezin concentration camp. Rabbi Milton Arm of Cong. Beth Achim delivered the memorial ad- dress, and Martin H. Rose, chair- man of the academy, spoke in Yid- dish. Cantor Simon Bermanis of Beth Achim chanted the El Molei Rahamin, accompanied by Bette Traub. Dr. John J. Mames, president of Shaarit Haplaytah, in his opening remarks, urged Jewish educators, community leaders and historians to correct what he called the lack of knowledge about the Holocaust. "Our Bar Mitzva boys are well prepared for reading the Haftora, but they know so little about the Holocaust," he said. "Without put- ting this into the curriculum, all the academies and monuments in the world will not help.

MARSHALL MOHEL 353-5444 Mrs, Leon Popowski, program chairman, led in the traditional candlelighting ceremony, and another candle was lit "in loving tribute to our fallen heroes in the state of Israel." Ruth Goldman presented a dra- , matization, "Pesach Has Come to the Ghetto Again," and violinist Gloria Kleinman presented two se- lections, with the accompaniment of Eric Roseno• at the piano. The Jewish War Veterans presented the colors. Associate chairmen Leon Halpern and Sally Fields also took part. A photographic exhibit from Yad Vashem, on display in the Bnai Moshe lobby, told the story of the Warsaw Ghetto, shut off by the Nazis in 1939, and the courageous but ill-fated uprising of April-May 1943. Among the documents is the let- ter from the Jewish Fighting Or- ganization calling upon "P o 1 e s , Citizens, Freedom Fighters: We may all perish in the struggle, but we shall not surrender." And the telegram from the lAt'arsaw police commissioner to the Superior SS on May 16, 1943: "180 Jews, bandits and inferior beings were annihilated. Th e former Jewish quarter of War- saw no longer exists. With the dynamiting of the Warsaw Syna- gogue, the major liquidation was completed at 8 p.m. . . . The sum total of arrested and proven annihilated Jews is 56,065. No losses of our own." But there were countless Nazi losses at the hands of the last-ditch resistors. Shaarit Haplaytah is em- phasizing that resistance with its annual observance.

Arab Official Declares: Somalia, Israel at War JERUSALEM, (JTA )—The for- eign minister of Somalia, Omar Arteh, has stated that his country is in the forefront of the Arabs' anti-Israel battle and considers it- self at war with Israel, according to the Cairo newspaper Al Akhbar. The report said Arteh was inter- viewed in Genet:a, the site of the UN hearings on Israeli treatment of Arab prisoners. The hearings are being con- ducted by a commission com- prised of Somalia, Ceylon and Yu- goslavia. The Somali Democratic Repub- lic, almost totally. Moslem, is located in Eastern Africa, sep- arated from Egypt by Ethiopia and the Sudan. It is run by an army-and-police junta that siezed power last Oc- tober after the assassination of President Abdirashid Ali Sher- marke and the arrest of Premier Mohammed Ibrahim Egale. The republic's population is 2,500,000. TINTI:HSET $800 HAIR DESIGN STUDIO Formerly of Seven Mile Road 29505 NORTHWESTERN HWY. — NORTH OF 12 MILE Thomas J.
