deviate from the age old custom of marring the beauty of the Temple nnd the ob j eels therein .

either commemorating contributors "ho passed a\\ a). or honoring

l;i,rge donors slill ali,c. h, perpetuating their names and gifts through plaques and
inscriptions on the walls or an) other part of the building.

As a

l B TITUTE. the Board thoughtfully recommended that all those

'"ho earned the affection of the community through gifts and deeds. and deserved
lo be remembered . be inscribed instead. in a special book to be named as the
GOLDE

Le

BOOK. Through this BOOK not only will the beauty of the Temple

pre erved. hut EVERY O'\'E "ill hc1, e a chance to BE l.'\ISCRIBED and

remembered. he his gift large or small. The rerommendation of the Board was un ~tnimously adopted. hence~a GOLDE. - BOOK.

THE WILLING GIVER
He did the little that he could
Choosing to do it now
Not waiting for the larger good
The future might allow.
No one had ever heard him say
When he was asked to share
"Come back again some distant day
When I have more to spare".
He never asked to see the list
Of gifts by others made
But gave his little, lest he missed
His chance the cause to aid.

�Dear friends:
Between the coYers oi this hook i:-; inscribed 111 cold figures, hut from warm hearts,
a rC'cnrd of g-enerosit) and philanthropy e,talili,he,I h) ;\lu,keg-011 Jell'ry in a decade JUSt
closed.
Ten }"C'ar, have passed since a group of local learlers met at my home and decided to
orgaPize the United Jew;sh Charities of Greater :\Tuskegon. Since that noble and modest
heginr.ing ten years ago, a total of $480,300.00 J,a, been raised $374,400.00 was allocated to
Unite I Jewish Appeal and other overseas agencies $83,000.00 was allocated to National
ano local reliei.
The launct-ing of tlie Cnited Jl\nsh Charities was a re\·olutionary and enltghtening
landmark in &lt;JUr comm unit). It 1.fforded all of us an opportunity to help sa\·e a pe"ple, and
help build a nation.
A. we nndC'rtake our 1953 carrpaign for l'nitcd Jewish Charities on December 28th,
under the leadrrship of Fierman Grossman, Samuel Lipman and Harold Rosen, we cannot
rest on our past performance, hut must giYe thC'm our utm"st support.
I should like to congratulate the leaders and all other men and women listed in this
hook on their achieHments in a decade of fruitful philanthropic effort. The generosity
and l•igh sense of communal responsihihty that haYe characterized these encleayors ha\·e
contributed immeasurably to the suni\·al and \\'ell-being- of countless thousanrls of men.
\\'omen and children all oYer the \\·oriel. and to the establishment of brae! as a stronghold oi democrac) in the ;\[idrlle East. It is therefore, my hope and expectation that our
enlightened community will meet the challenge on December 28th with commensurate
unrlerstan,ling and generosity.
The stor) 111 thi book is of sacrifices made by our men and \\'Omen in order to help
build a brighter future for our brethren oYersea~ . But, at the same time, we did not neglect our home front . \\'e built a $250,000.00 Temple, and maintained a high le\'el of religious and cultural activities for ourse!Ye:--. At the ,;ame time, the Jewish community leaders
participated in and supported The Hackley Hospital. l\fercy Hospital, and Y\\'CA building campaigns \\'e support annuall) the Community Chest. H.ed Cross, Polio, Cancer,
Yl\1 CA, Boy Scouts, and all other community wide projects and undertakings. Our hearts
and pocketbooks ha Ye and al\\ ays will support desen·ing causes, regardless whether they
are Jewish or Christian.
To 111) associates-Francis Fine. Harry A. Fisher, Kelly Kaufman. Sam Lipman. Harold
Rosen. Leo Rosen, ,\Trs. Syd Strifling, and others too numerous to mention-may I say
that you ha\ e heen a source of inspiration, not only to me hut to the entire community.
I extend to you my sincerest heartfelt thanks and best wishes in the years to come for a
full measure of good health. happiness, and prosperity as Just Iv befits those ,Yl10 ha Ye e,;tablished so brilliant a record of charity and sen ice over the decade just ended.
Faithfully Yours,

�_About Our Chairmen
PAUL M. WIENER
The historic year of 1930 is remembered as a turning point in American history. For
the Je11·ish community of :!\1uskegon it marked the emergence of a young man into a role
of leadership which he has held for almost a quarter of a century. At a time when people
e\'erywhere ,Yere holding on to "·hatever they could salvage from the stock market crash,
responding to the call of the late Issac Grossman. Paul 1\1. \Viener undertook to organize
the Finances of the Synagogue to carry it thn, the depression years. In 1941 he organized
the C'nited Jewish Charities whose tenth annh ersary we are celebrating this year.
At times as the official lea&lt;ler and more often as the unofficial leader, his guidance and
moral support were indispensable. Gifted with a dynamic personality he always directed his
energies where they achie,·ed the greatest good. First for the Jewish community, and then
for the larger community, his ability for leadership was felt keenly. No cause of any worth
escaped his attention He was citizen par excellence. He contributed incessantly of his time
and money to the common good. In his liberal distribution of his gifts we find personified
the familiar prayer in the Union Prayer Book; "Let us be, 0 Lord, just and great-hearted
in our dealings with our fellow men, sharing with them the fruits of our common labor,
·acknowleclging before Thee that we are but ste,vards of whatever we possess."
'.\[uskegon Jewry is fortunate in being able to boast of Paul \\'iener as one of it,-. 110st
honored citizens. \\' e consider him the embo1.'.iment of the truly pious man. not in the sense
of isolating him~eli from his frllow man in prayer ancl meditation. but m a larger ancl more
real sense. He sen·es family. friend, community, and nation These have become for him
thoroughfares to God. By his deeds he has made God's will his own. :ind for all his benefactions he lays no claim to reward. He abhors slander, ancl chicanery, and disdains the
shahbine,-;s of human selfishness. By these signs and many more we recognize Paul \Viener
as a s111cere man. !\fay God grant him a long life of happiness together with his dear ones,
and the realization of all his hopes and dreams.

LEOS. ROSEN
It can he !'aid that he is one of the strongest pillars of the community. Not only is the
Jewish community blessed by his presence, but he is a blessing to the entire community as
well. for he participates in eYery worthwhile ch·ic enterprise in :\luskegon. Before the organization of the United Jewish Charities Leo Rosen raised fund~ for the Joint Distribution
Committee singlehamledly. The Congregation 13'nai Israel will be furc\er grateful to him for
his leadership and untiring efforts in organizing and completing our ne"· Temple. 1lay he
e,·er remain among us, an ideal worthy of our emulation

J.M. "KELLY" KAUFMAN
A former chairman of the United Jewish Charities and one oi its highest contributure-,
is a firm believer in the Rabbinic dictum; "'eparate not thyself from the congregation."
By his example he has helped to loosen the purse strings of many a donor for in the field of
charity, ''actions speak louder than "·ords." :-.;eYertheless, Kelly Kaufman does not stop
here. He is also one of the most diligent workers in the campaign. He shall always have
our undying thanks.

�HARRY S. BERMAN
Congratulations on a successful 1948 campaign, the year of your chairmanship.

SAMUEL LIPMAN
He was the chairman of the Unitecl Jewish Charities in 1948, the year which witnessed
the largest collectio•1 in its history. Thoroughly grounclerl in Jewish history ancl literature he
can di,cuss ]t·wish current eYents with ease ancl fluency , 'ot satisfied with hearsay reports
about Israel, only a personal tnp could satisfy his curiosity about the new Je\'vish State.
H 011·e,·er, a good min cl is not his only asset He possesses a "·arm and generous heart
which iinds expression in meritorious acts of charity ,d1ereYer the} are needed Blessed
\\ ith an abundant capacity for friendship he 11nt only giYes of his substance but he gives
oi himself. Ile is the kind of a person one instincti\Cly wishes to count as a friend. To
k1w11 Sam is to lo,·e him. \\'e pray that he will remain Ill our midst ior many more ytars,
a blessing to all who know him.

HARRY A. FISHER
A former chairman of the Gnited Jewish Charities, he is a man who has earnecl the
respect of all of his contemporaries. Ha\'ing once had to shoulder the full responsibility of
this campaign he is fully appreciative of the enormity of the task facing the present chairman. 1\' e are proud of Harry Fisher for his gene1·osit} and his many kind deeds which
ha, e endeared him not only to the members of his family but tn the entire community. l\Iay
Goel grant him many more years of fruittnl ,enice among us.

MRS. FRED RODOFF
'.\!rs. Fred Rodoff, Hadasgah\; representative in the United Jewi~h
Charities, is one of the principal mainstays of this drive. She is a firm
believt:r in the traditional Jewish teaching that gi\"ing doe&lt;, more good for
the donor than for the recipient. That i-, why her chief concern is with
the collections from donors of $20J and Je:;.s, and is the chairman of that
committee. \\"hen we realize that about 70% of all donors are in this
category, we are made mindful of the immensity of the task facing Millie
Rodoff.

SAM KLAYF
Sam Klayf has served a,; a member of the Board of the United Jewish

,,as one of those rare person~ who always hare plenty of timt: to hdp

The time many people spend in rushing from one meeting to another,

She was a woman with an understanding heart. who was always thinking of one more way to
help pl"ople to fullc-r and happier lives.

�I am grateful to the United Jewish Charities for this opportunity to extend greetings to
the Jewish community of :\I uskegon on the occasion of their annual dri\'e. The story is told
of a desert tra\'eler who was lost for many days in the hot, dry sand:, and was about to
expire from thirst. Suddenly he chanced upon a green, fertile oasis fed by a clear, cool
spring of "·ater. After slaking his thirst on this precious, life-gi\'ing water, he satisfied his
hunger on the luscious elates which abounded there. Then he lay clown to rest under the
cool shade of the palm trees. His heart overflowing with gratitude, he turned to the oasis
and said: "Gracious oasis, for your la \'ish and life-restoring gifts I would like to bless you.
Shall I pray that you have cool and refreshing water, you already have it. Should I bless
you with sweet and abundant fruit, you already possess more than you require. \Yere I to
pray that your trees pro\'icle a cool refuge against the hot desert sun, the shade of your
trees is already a refre;;hment to the soul. I :&lt;hall therefore pray that your spring of water
ne,·er run dry, that your trees continue to bear abundant fruit, and pro,·ide ample shade
against the hot sun.
:\luskegon may be compared to an oasis that is blessed with water, fruit and shade. Its
water is its substance and goods; its fruit is its people and their offspring; its shade is its
Temple and service organizations. Like the desert traveler I shall bless you as follows:
:\lay you e\'er be in a position to give of your substance to the less fortunate than you.
:\lay God bless you with many children who will be like you in generosity and kindnc:,s. :-.lay
your Temple e, er inspire } uu ,Yith a lo\'e of Goel which will enable you to find comfort in
sorrow. strength in trial. and the courage to do justly and to love mercy.

OUR FESTIVALS AND CELEBRATIONS
The Jewish festivals in their traditional forms,
take the Jew year by year, through all the imoortant periods of Jle.wish hisory. At Passover he
lives through the Exodus "as if he himself went
out of Egypt"; at Succoth he makes the juurney
throug'.1 the wilderness, at Shevuoth he receives
the Law. on the various fast days, culminating
on Tisha Be' Av, he passes through all the peop!e's wars down to the Destruction of the :::;·c cond
Temple, at Hanuccah he wins again the victorv
of the people against its attackers and of Judaism over Hellenism. And he who sees all this
again year after ye•w ca"'w&gt;~ b,1t root himself
deeply in his l)eople and strengthen his detel"mination to bring the renewed State of Israel to
fruitioi:i,. and to continue all the bright trends of
our ongmal culture. Even the Jew who is far
from Jewish tradition will admit that we would
have been lost had we not held to these tradiions through the thousands of years of exile.

�THE NEW YEAR
The New Year festival is far other than the
mere opening day, according to the olden ,T ewish
reckoning, of another year in the flight of time.
Unlike the New Year celebrations of many
ancient and modern nations, the Jewish New
Year is not a time, of revelry. It is a solemn season of self-examination and self judgment in thP
life of the Jew. Scripture prescribes a special
symbolic rite for this day, the sounding of the
ram's horn, the SHOF AR. Whoever has once
heard during the New Year service the shrill
notes or this oldest of wind instruments will never
forget them. And the meaning- of this ceremony
to the worshippers who listen to these notes in
solemn awe is as stirring as the sounds themselves. Since days immemorial, the sounding of
the ram's horn on the New Year has been interpretmd in Israel as the clarion call to repentance and spiritual renewal, saying: "Awake, ye
sleepers! Be not of those who miss realities in
their hunt after shadows. Consider your deeds:
purify your hearts. There is an Eye that seeth
all things: there is an Ear that heareth all things.
There is a heavenly Judge with whom is no unrighteousness, nor forgetfulness, nor respect of
persons."
And on the High Festivals the Jew thinks not
only of himself, but of pe,ace and blessedness for
all mankind. In the most ancient and solemn
part of the services, both of the New Year and
of the Day of Atonement, he prays God to hasten
the time when the mighty shall be just and the
just mighty; when al! the children of men shall
form one hand of brotherhood; when national arrogance and oppression shall have passed away,
like so much smoke from the earth.
-JOSEPH H. HERTZ
~Chief Rabbi of British Empire
(1872-1946)
A MESSAGE FROM OUR RABBI
The year just t,ided was a test year. Through
the will and determination of the Jewish people
everywhere, the D. P. camps have well nigh been
evacuated. Thousands of our brethren have
been given a new Je,3se on life in their new horn,~,
Palestine. The Israelis have proved to the world
by their a.bility and wisdom that they can carry
on as a free and indept111dent nation.
While there are still many pressing problem,
facing the Israeli government and the Israeli
peopTe1 as a whole, we are confident nevertheless,
that given time, they will go from strength to
strength.
For our own local community, the year past
was also a challenge. Our program called for
vision, courage, effort and a strong- will for
execution of same. The year being over, we can
say with a smile the work was done and don0
well.
Now we stand at the threshold of the New
Year. More, much more is expected of us in the
New Year. Only by doing better in the days
ahead, shall we know that we are progressing.
We have met the challenge before, with God's
help and a combined effort we can can do it
again.
Rabbi Samuel Umen
BEGINNERS' CLASSES IN HEBREW
Parents who are planning to register their children in the Heb1"f',W School are asked to do so at
the Temple Office. before October 24.
A beginner's class in Hebrew for Adults will
be gi~n on Thursday evenings from 8 :00 p.m.
to 9 :00 p.m. beginning October 27. All those
who are interested in this course, are urged to
notify the Temple Office.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT
Somehow around this time of the year, a new
spirit takes hold of us. We look forward to the
New Year. We feel that the ew Year will be
better and will have nicer things for us than
that offe1 1c,d by the past. All this is natural. We
can't do anything with the past. The past is
gone, dead. It is the future that can be lived and
translated by our life into things great and
memorable. Hence. standing before the New
Year in which we are about to begin to liYe, let
u1:: resolve to live every day granted to us to the
fullest of our ability.
Onlv by remembering our duty to ourselves,
our fellow-man, our community, our people and
our country, not only in thought but also in act,
shall we fully c-njoy the days that are ours in the
future.
May God grant that the New Year be for us
and all mankind one of happiness and rich in
achievement.
-PAUL M. WIENER
A MESSAGE FROM THE
RITUAL CHAIRMAN
I am happy to report to the community that
the year now ending was one that gave me and
my committee untold joy. It. was good to see the
large attendance at our Friday night service, the
many Congregants join and participate in the
Oneg S'habat programs after the service, and following through the Ritual Program as planned
by the Committee throughout the year.
Recently the committee met again and mapped
ou a pro,g ram for the coming year, which I am
sure will inclicate, as this program evolves, that
we are makin~ progress. that we are headine; for
a strong united community. All of us are responsible for the progress we made last year. I know
that the entire Congregation will continue to coperate in the future as in the past to the end
that we shall all enjoy the fruits of our labor.
May our heavenly Father bless us, all Israel,
and all mankind with a New Year of peace anrl
prosperity.
-SAMUEL G. KLAYF
A MESSAGE FROM
OUR SISTERHOOD PRESIDENT
We of Sisterhood are happy to wish the members of our community a year of peace, happiness. joy and contentment.
With our transitional year in the past, a difficult but happy one, we forge ahead to serve as an
auxiliary to our fine congregation to the fullest
of our capacity. May we be ever mindful of our
duties and obligations to our people and community so that every year produces greater and
more constructive achievements.
The beautiful and familiar words always
sounded at the New Yeal'--"L'Shono Tova Tikosevu" serve as a stimulus to fulfill our duties to
bring the ultimate of peace, happiness, joy and
contentment to all of us and our fellowmen.
-FRANCES AUGUST
GREETINGS FROM
B'NAI BRITH PRESIDENT
Through the medium of this Bulletin I wish to
extend my sincerest wishes to all the Temple
members and to all the members of the Abraham
Rosen Lodge. Judging from the enthusiasm expressed by most of our members with regard to
the B'nai Brith program for the coming year. I
feel that we can look forward to a very fruitful
year.
-HAROLD SILVERMAN

�A MESSAGE FROM OUR
U. J.C. CHAIRMAN
I recall at this writing, a thought from one of
the sermons delivered by our Rabbi during the
High Holy Day Service of last year. "We can
become better if we only will it to be. We can
make our community better if we so desire. It
is all within our will."
I fully agree with the Rabbi that the key to
success lies within the will. When a person sets
his whole heart and mind upon a certain goal, he
can in due time achieve his aim. Obstacles vanish
before the strong-willed.
In December 1948, a large portion of the
Temple membership, met at a dinner at the Occidental Hotel. Then and there we took counsel together and decided how much help our needy
brethren were to receive from us. We pledged
our help individually and as a group. We reported
our decision to those that were waiting for our
answer and who were countin_g- on us.
Thus far, on the whole, our pledge remains
nothing but a gesture. I feel that in any and
every language there is nothing more sacred than
a pledge. Let nothing stand in our way between
now and the New Year in keeping our word with
God and our fellow man. Before we ask God for
a New Year of life, let us make sure that we
through our promises have not deprived others of
the same.
-SAM LIPMAN
NEW YEAR GREETINGS FROM OUR
RELIGIOUS SCHOOL PRINCIPAL
With God's blessings of a New Year of health
and happine,ss for ourselves and our children, we
look forward to a year of gi:eat achievements in
our Religious School. Many outstanding Jewish
leaders and educators whose talents were given
in the last decade. to the pressing problems of
Jewish homelessness, are now directing their attention to the much neglected problem of Jewish education at home.--here in the United States.
There is no doubt in my mind that a new attitude and new spirit toward Jewish study will
seize the entire Jewish Community of America.
It is in the light of this happening, together with
what we ourselves are planning for our School
in the way of a program, that I feel confident
that the coming year will be one of outstanding
accomplishments in our School.
-Gene Berman, Principal
A TEMPLE NEEDS A SOUL
A Temple is in a way like a human being. The
bones, the flesh, the sinews, the entire body
structure is nothing but lifeless matter without
the breath of life-the soul. A house of worship, no matter how beautiful it may b~, wi~ho~t
the life that the Congregants pour mto 1t, 1s
nothing but a dead body. A Temple like a human
being needs a soul. It needs life. There are many
ways by which the membership can make their
Temple a living institution. . A~ this time we
should like to suggest the bmldmg and developing of our choir. The Choir is a necessary adjunct of the Temple. Ther~- are a number of men
and women in our Cong1 egation who can help
develop our Choir. By helping the Choir, we
shall be giving life and enrich the soul of our
Temple. Join the Choir. Call Rose Rosenberg,
chairman, and tell her that you want to lend
your voice. "LET US COME AND SING UNTO
THE LORD."

A MESSAGE FROM
THE HADASSAH PRESIDENT
I am very grateful to the Congregation for inviting me to extend Hadassah's New Year greetings to our community through this Bulletin.
Once again, I wish to say that the past year has
bern one of success for Hadassah generally and
for our Chapter particularly. Two things governed our action and stimulated our interest and
work. First, the cause itself and secondly the
knowledge that we were working for the enh:rncement of the State of Israeli.
The New Year, will I am certain make irreater
dr-mwds upon us. I am also certain that the untold satisfaction which we derive from our work,
will not permit us to slacken. Hadassah's healing
hand is needed now more than ever. I know that
Hadassah here as everywhere else, will not deprive her bre thren the care and comfort that is
due them.
During the High Holy Day Service, we ask for
life, let us also remember to help those in need
to life and liberty. May we all be privileged to
enjoy the New Year in peace, health and prosperity to the end that we may se,rve God anrl
man.
--Jessie Neumer
A PRAYER AND A DEAL
Once there was a poor man, a "schlemihl". He
was so unhappy that he took pleasure it1 daydreaming. One day he uttered the following
prayer:
"Dear God-give me ten thousand dollars for the New Year. I'll tell you
what---1'11 make a deal with you. I
swear to give five thousand dollars of
this amount for charity, the other half
let me keep. You say you have doubts
about my honorable intentions?-then
give me the five thousand dollars I ask
for myself and the other five thousand
dollars You give to charity yourself."

A MESSAGE FROM THE
YOUNG PEOPLE'S LEAGUE CHAIRMAN
It was a wonderful experience to work together with the younger member&amp; of the Congregation. Since we got organized late in the year,
there was little time had for planning a full program of activity. The few affairs conducted by
the Young People's League during the yeal', however, proved to be very successful. More careful
planning and a better organized group, I bdieve,
can do itself proud during the coming year. I
have faith in the Young People's League.
I want to take this opportunity of expressing
my deepest gratitude to the Congregation and
Sisterhood for the co-operation the Young
People's League received from them on every occasion.
May our Lord grant us all health and happiness
in the ew Year, so that we can go on in our
work from strength to strength.

PURPOSE OF LIFE
What is the meaning of life? This probably is
the most speculative question with which the
philosophers have wrestled in every generation.
Two things are certain. We are born and we die.
What of the years between these two events?
The average person uses about the first twenty
or twenty-five years of life to prepare for his
life's work. This last about forty years and then
he either dies or retires. It is with these forty
years that the average man is most concerned.
What is the purpose of them. For what purpose
should he prepare himself, only to know that at
best he has forty or less years to be alive. What
should be the goal of purpose. To what designation should we set our ambition to achieve. It
seems to me that joy is the answer. Not pleasure.
Pleasure is only an artifice of nature to guarantee that he living will continue to live; it in no
way indicates the direction of life. But joy always
announces he fact that life has succeeded, that it
has gained ground, has won a victory; great joy
has a note of triumph in it. Wherever there is
joy there is creation: the richer the creation the
more profound the joy. The mother looking at
her child has joy because she knows that she
"created" him, physically and morally. Take the
exceptional joys of life: those of the artist realizing his concepts of beauty, the scholar discovering truth. You may have thought that these men
work for the glory of it all, that they take great
pleasure in the admiration of others. This is a
profound error. Men depend on fame and honor
to the exact extent that they are no sure of having- succeeded. One who is absoluely sure of having done a good work has no need of praise; he
feels himself above glory, for the simple reason
that he is a creator; he knows he is a cre.ator and
the joy he has in knowing it is a divine joy.

FIRST FRIDAY NIGHT SERVICE
OCTOBER 21, 8:15 P.M.
As we are about to resume the Friday night
servic()S, we cannot help but think of Sisterhood
and the hostesses that Sisterhood furnished
throughout the past season. There is nothing
that hits the spot better than a hot cup of tea or
coffeo after the Service. Sisterhood with its
hostesses made this possible last year. We look
forward to the continuance of this lovely gesture.
TWO DEDICATIONS
TO TAKE PLACE SOON
The Golden Book will be dedicated at the first
Friday night service on October 21st. After the
Service, congregants will have a chance to feast
their eyes on the magnificent art work found
within the covers of the Book.
Later in the season, perhaps during the Thanksiriving week~end, we shall have the pleasure of
dedicating the Israeli Room now being made
ready for the occasion.

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT
THE HIGH HOLY DAYS
Rosh-means head
Shonnoh-means year
Ha-means the
Rosh Hasonnoh-means the head of the
year or the beginning of the year.
Rosh Hashonnoh is celebrate,d rn the month
of TISHREI.
TISHREI is the seventh month on the Hebrew calendar.
The first month on the Hebrew calendar is
NIS'ON.
Rosh Hashonnoh is obse,r ved two days by
Orthodox and Conservative Jews and one
day by Liberal or Reform Jew,;.
Rosh Hashonnoh marks the anniversary of
the world. Our Rabbis believe that the world
was cre.~ted in the fall during the month of
TISHREI.
Rosh Hasonnoh is known by several names:
a. YO.M RADIN-Judgment Day.
b. YOM HAZIKORON-Day of Remembrance.
c. YOM TRUOH-Day of sounding the
Trumpet.
Rosh Hashonnoh is known as Judj?'ment Day
because our Rabbis claim that God sits in
judgement on this day, reviews our deeds of
the year gone by and judges according to
our dessert. Some are marked for death,
some for life, some for health and some for
illness, som'e, for riches and some for poverty etc.
The reason why Rosh Hashonnoh is known
as YOM HAZIKORON is because God remembers the great sacrifices many of our
leaders have made on behalf of their religion and their love for God.
Rosh Hashonnoh is known as YOM TRUOH
because on this day the SHOFAR (or trumpet) is sounded during the Service.
Special prayers are re.,cited on Rosh Hashonnoh. We appeal to God for a New
Year of health, happiness and prosperity.
Many of the prayers for the New Year or
Rosh Hashonnoh Servic'e were written by
Rabbis amd poets of the middle ages. A few
of these men are:
J ehudah Halevi
Ibn Ezra
Eleazer Kalir
Solomon Ibn Gabirol
Rosh Hashonnoh is a major holiday. A major
holiday is one which is mentioned in the
Bible.
Rosh Hashonnoh falls on the first day of
the seventh month of Tishrei.
All holidays that are observed two days outside of Palestine, are observed only one day
in Palestine.
Rosh Hashonnoh is observed two days in
Palestine (both days are regarded as one).
According to Or+hodox law, no wo1·k, except cookinJ?: is permitted on Rosh Hashonnoh.
The SHOFAR (trumpet) which is sounded
during the Service on Roi'-h Hashonnoh, is
fashion'e,d out of a Ram's horn. It brings to
mind the ram which God sent to Abraham
as a substitute for the sacrifice of his son,
Isaac.
It is customary to dip bread in honey at the
supper hour on the eve of Rosh Hashonnoh.
This is to symbolize the sweeitness we hope
the New Year will bring us.

REPRINT FROM LIBERAL JUDAISM

TO LIVE AGAIN
BY OBSERVER
In every service in the Jewish prayer boo_k, _there is 2. po1•tion called the Kaddish. It is recited by the
living in honor of the dead. We memonahze the dead, not because our wocds benefit those who have
passed away but because we desire to benefit by their qxample as we benefit by theit· works.
OUR DEBT TO THE DEA D
Only when we pause to think of it, do we realize the vastne s of our debt to those who prereded
us. The cities we. inhabit, sometimes even the very dw_ellings in which we live, the instruments we use,
the ideas we cherish, the knowledge whereon we bmld, the laws that govern us, Lhe institutions that
maintain our civilization-how few of them are the works of the living an&lt;l how many of them a:r'ie
the contributions of the dead.
Without any reference, at the moment, to per.3onal immortality, as this was pictured by our forebears, the _ck,'ld live in a very definite sense 3:nd ~enefit us by the acts they performed. We find in
this reflection a potent argument for conduct which 1s far from subtle.
What are we planning to do for the generations that will follow? A1;ei we living for ourselves alone
or shall we, too, help to perpetuate in an organized fashion what the wisdom of many o-enerations has
la bolled as good and beneficial?
,.,
At the moment we are thinking of the institutions of religion. We are passing through a period
of brazen materialism. Electric lights, dance music and the spirit of Coney Island are too much with
us. To be, sure. this will pass away as similar materialistic periods of the past. At the gwift pace of
modern life we might well ask ourselves whether the dawn of a new day may ,not find our children
impoverished because we did not remember to perpetuate these great truths that can hold a reeling
world from destruction.
Frankly, we might apply this iruth to ourselves. Are we devoting any of ihe wealth that the gifts
of the past enabled us to accumulate to keep aglow the flame of religion? We all make wills. Are we
by our testamentary gifts helping to pave the way to a noble Jewish life for our children? Why not
gratify the desire to live again 7
·
When the rabbi reads the Kaddish prayer and even when he mentions the names of the deceased
ii is not he who makes them live again. It is we who l'emernber what they did for u s and who resolve i~
their name, to do our share fo1, those who are to follow.
'
Tmi Kaddish service is more than a prayer of memorial. It is a service of consecration, wherein the
dead salute the living and the living salute the unborn.

A REQUEST
In order to ensure perfect decorum during the
High Holy Day Services as well as on Friday

added to our library shelves this summn· and a
~oodly number of other volumes have recently
been ordered. Much credit for the growth of our

library is dU(:I to Fred Rodoff, who as chairman
of this project is doing an exeellent job. On
birthdays, anniversaries, or on the day of commemorating dear ones, let u. remember the
Temple Library.

THE YOUNG PEOPLE'S LEAGUE

Our Young People's League met a few weeks
ago, elected officers and mapped out a cultural
program which will be without a doubt a great
contribution to our entire Jewish community.
We can all look forward to many an enjoyable
evening of entertainment and culture to be provided by the League,..
The old saying with regards to age is "it is
not how old you are, but how old you feel you
are". The Young People's League has no age
limits set for its group. If you feel young, if you
feel like participating in the Young People's
League program, theJ1 do not wait for special
inviti:i.tions, JOIN AND BE ACTIVE.

While September and October were busy
months for those connected with the Temple, yet
our children were not forgotten. A lovely service
was arranged for the children on Yorn Kippur
Day. This was followed by a beautiful party on
Simchath Torah for the entire Sunday School,
and another party a few days later for the little
tots, sponsored by the Cradle Roll committee.
Were it not for our beautiful Temple with its
fine facilities, all these affairs would be impossible. Thanks to our Lord for our fine Temple.

THANKS FOR THE SUCCOH DECORATIONS

It was thrilling both to the Rabbi and Congregation to enter our beautifully decorated Succoh
on Succoth eve and recite therein, the Kiddush
a.nd the traditional Succoth blessing. For our
children too, the lesson of Succoth was made
more meaningful and more vivid when their
Sunday School teachers showed them the Succoh, and the Rabbi explained its meaning and
history.
Our deepest thanks go to the good Sisterhood
members who in a pouring rain came to the
Temple and spent several hours making the
Succoh beautiful. May God reward these good
women with many beautiful blessings throughout the year.
FRIDAY EVENING SERVICE

This year as last, we look forward from week
to week to the lovely gatherings of our members
at the Friday evening service. From time to
time, some event will crop up either in the form
of a dinner, a movie a ball game etc. which will
test a Congregants loyalty and devotion to his
Temple. Let us therefore from the very start resolve that i •'riday night is dedicated to Temple
and prayer. Let us give at least one night of the
seven to our soul, to things spiritual.

THE HOLIDAY SERVICE IN RETROSPECT
Everyone who attende4 the Holiday S1:rvi~es
at the Temple this year W1ll agi·ee that begmnmg
with the New Yar Service and ending with the
Simchath Torah Service, there was !ittle that
was lacking to have made the Se_rv1ces_ i:nore
beautiful. There was beauty, a genume sp1l'lt of
holiness and a feeling of oneness in the Congregati~n, from beginning to end.
A vote of thanks for the magnificent manner
in which eve1·ything was done ot make our Service as beautiful as it was, goes to our Rabbi, the
choir the ehoir leader---.Mr. Paul Shultz, the Ore;anist-Mr. Hubert Baker, the ritual committee,
and Jack Steindler, head of the Ushers Committee.
Let us hope that from year to year, we shall
continue to grow and improve.

According to the finest educators and best
principles of education, a child will learn a lesson quicker through pictures, illustrations and
cbjects than by stories which taxes at time his
imagination.
In Sunday School, for example. as part of a
lesson, a description will be given of a Synagogue
Service. If, however, the child were to witness
and participate in such a service, the lesson
would be made much more understandable. In
view of this, the Sunday School staff has decided, that once a month the children of our Sunday School be asked to attend a regular Sabbath
morning Service.
This will give our children a chance to see
and experience theory in practice. We trust that
all the parents concerned will co-operate with our
C'chool and help carry out a project of invaluable
worth to the child and of great importance to the
School. THE FIRST SABBATH MORNING FOR
OUR SUNDAY SCHOOL WILL BE HELD ON
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, AT 9 :45 A.M.

�SUNDAY SCHOOL
Our S'unday School is already in full swing
with an enrollment of fifty five at this writing.
By the first week in November, we hope to have
P. few more children who, due to the holidays
and sickness were delayed in registering. A very
fine curriculum has bee·n prepared by the Rabbi.
and with the proper care and supervision we
hope to accomplish a great deal for our schoo1.
Our aim is to make our Sunday School second
to none in every respect. All we ask of the parents is to make sure that the children arc in
school at the exact hour-10 :00 A.M. sharp.
With our able staff of teachers, Gene Berman Principal, our Rabbi, and the parents cooperating, and with God's help we shall not fail
&lt;•ur children. The motto for our school is taken
from scripture: ''AND THOU SHALT TEACH
THEM DILIGENTLY U TO THY CHILDREN."
HEBREW SCHOOL
This is the beginning of the second year for
our Hebrew School. Hebrew School opened on
Monday, October 24th at 4 :00 P .M. All the children who started last year, returned to resume
their studies. Smilingly they are at their lesson~
again. No, the children are not preparing for
Bar Mitzah in these classes. They are studying
the Hebrew language as one tudies French,
Spanish. Latin or some other language.
Hebrew is a living language again. It is taught
in many high schools, colleges, and universities
throughout the United States. ot only are more
Jews studying Hebrew than ever before, but a
great many non-Jews have taken to the study of
Hebrew in lieu of another language.
TWO ADULT COURSES IN HEBREW
The a dult Hebrew class introduced last year
at our Temple, and not without success, met
again for this year on Monday, October 24th at
1 :00 P.M. to continue furthering its knowledge
of the Hebrew language and literature.
Since the adult Hebrew class meets in the
afternoon . several individuals who would have
liked to join the class could not do so last year
on account of the hour. So that no one may be
deprived of the opportunity to study Hebrew,
another Hebrew class has been added this year.
This beginner's class meets on Monday evenings
from 7 :00 to 9 :00 P .M. at the Muskegon Junior
College under the direction of Rabbi Umen.
While this class is already in progress, it is not
too late to register now. "Studies serve for pastimes for ornaments, for abilities. Their chief
use for pastimes is in privateness and retiring;
for ornaments in discourse; and for ability in
judgment."
THE BIBLE STUDY GROUP
RESUMES STUDIES
"If you have acquired knowledge" asks a great
teacher,, "what are you Jacking?" "If you lack
knowledge what have you got?" The chance to
study and to widen your knowledge on the Jewish religion, its origin and growth, its philosophy
and literature is at your door. Do not let this
wonderful opportunity pass you by.
The Bible Study Group meeting every other
Wednesday is studying this year (as a continuation of last year's course) the book of Ecclesiastes-(Solmon's philosophy of life) fo1· the first
hour, and the religion of the Prophets, the second hour of the session.
The nex t meetin g

of the

B ible Stud y Group

will be on Wedne s day e ven in g, Novembe r 9 at
8 : 15 P .M. in the recreation room of the Temple.

JEWISH BOOK MONTH
NOVEMBER 11-DECEMBER 11
WHY JEWISH BOOK MONTH?
The Jewish Book Council of America is a broad
representative organization "bringing toge~her
Jews of varying religious an4 cultural _group1r:gs
on a common platforI? of mterest m .Jew!sh
literature" and covering the field of Jewish
literary a.'ctivity in the Un~te4 States in i~s trilingual form of Hebrew, Yiddish and Enghsh.
One of the methods used to achieve this objective is the campaign for the observance of Jewish Book Month conducted annually by the Council as a means of stimulating interest in the
Jewish book and sustaining the interest aroused
throughout the year.
At no other time were there more cogent.
reasons for such an observance. The time has
come when American Jewry must play a positive
part in assuring the survival of the J e"'.ish cultural heritage. The great European J ew1sh centers of learning and literature are in ruin~, the
majority of the Jews of Europe have penc:hed,
the potential talent and creative energies of the
Jewish populations in Europe are destroyed. It
is clear that the responsibility for restoring these
ruins falls upon the Jews of America. The Jewish Book Council of America is one of the agencies of Jewish life in America which is assuming
a share in this responsibility and is seeking ways
of creating conditions favorable for the development of an American Jewish culture, and of preserving the age-old Jewish heritage. A deep consciousness of this need must be awakened and it,
is hoped that Jewish Book Month will provide
the impetus.
WHAT HAVE PUBLIC LIBRARIES DONE
TO OBSERVE JEWISH BOOK MONTH?
Originated in 1926 as Jewish Book Week by
a librarian (Miss Fanny Goldstein, Librarian of
th West End Branch of the Boston Public Library), Jewish Book Month has been teadily
gaining in importance as an annual observance
in public libraries.
Libraries in both large and small communities
have arranged many attractive programs and exhibitions in the past. Public libraries have also
participated in community-wide celebrations and
a number have prepared special lists of books of
Jewish interest for distribution.

OU R LIBRARY

This month being Book Month, our minds naturally tunn to books and libraries in general, anrl
to our own library and books in particular. Due
to the kindness of many of our members as well
'lS the commendable work of our library chairman, our library is growing from day to day.
lowly but surely some of the finest books arc
finding their way into our Temple Library.
During the summer. thirty new volumes have
been added to our lovely collection. May we suggest, that this month above all, is a very appropriate time to give a gift either in money or a
book to the Temple Library. Both the donor'i,
name and the name in whose honor or memory
the book is given are attached to the covers of
the book. "Books are the legacies that genius
leaves to mankind, to be delivered down from
generation to generation, as presents to those
that are yet unborn."
ISRA ELI ROOM TO B E DEDICATED NOV. 20

On November 2·1 of last year, during the din ner given in honor of Leo S. Rosen, and also at
the time when our Temple was dedicated, about
$4,000.00 do11ars were pledged by the dinner
guests and paid for a room in our Temple, to be
known 'lS the "Israeli Room". Between last year
and now, a mural has been set up in one of the
Temple classrooms, confirming the pledge and
promisf made by this Congregation last November. Th,s mural which was carefully and tastefully designed, will be on a long time and serve
as a symbol of the heroic deeds performed by our
brethren in the establishment of a democratir
Jewish i1tate, for which they hoped and waited
for two chousand years.
THIS ISRAELI ROOM, WILL BE FORMALLY DEDICATED ON SU DAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 20, AT 8 :00 P. M. OU'I'ST ANDING
PERSO ALITIES, INCLUDING GOVER ·oR
WILLIAMS WILL ATTEND AND P ARTI CIp ATE IN THE DEDICATORY SERVICE.
UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES

The time has come when we must take counsel
together once again and decide how much we are
going to do this year for our unfortunate brethren who wait for our help. Before doing so,
however, we must first consider the meaning of
1:1, pledge to ourselves and the person to whom it
is made. Last year too we met and pledged. Had
our brethren depended on some of us entirely,
there would be none of them left today to call
upon us again.
B etw e en now and Dece mb e r let us determine
to clean up last year's appeal, and decide what
our gift should be this year. It is wrong to play
around with other people's lives. It is well to
remember that every person in need is our
broth er and we, more fortunate are his keeper.
VIEWPOINT
The man got his ailing friend as far as t he
doctor's door, but there t he patient balked.
Patient: "I'm a little leery about going in
there."
Friend: "Nonsense, this is one of the best
doctors in the country."
Patient: "Maybe so, but I don't like the odds
he offers. Look on his door there-IO to 1."

�B'NAI BRITH

EVENTS OF INTEREST

Under the inspired leadership of its new
president, Eugene Fisher, our B'nai Brith is
making· rapid strides in its expansion program.
With a memberi;hip at an all-time high o.f more
t.han 100, the organizaiion is looking to&lt;lay
toward its most active year as a community
service group. The dedication in conjunction
with National B'nai Brith Week on Friday, Octcber 14th, started the new ball a-rolling. Rabbi
Samuel Umen spoke on "Looking Backward and
Fonvard", and deceased presidents of the lodge
and the national organization were commemorated. This event was followed by a highly successful Polio Fund Benefit at the Temple on
Sunday, October 16th, where an impressive
turnout danced to Buddy Friend's music. Preentation of our check for $355.00 to a representative of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis highlighted the intermission program. Our B'nai Brith rates a low bow for this
very worthwhile affair, which was one of the
community's most successful Polio benefits.
Strictly on the sccial side was the B'nai Brith
meeting Monday, Oct. 24th. At least 60 members
spent a thoroughly enjoyable evenin.e.-. thanks to
an entertaining and enlightening program. Three
films were shown, the first dealth with the popular sport of fishing, the second was a "Manch
of Time" tribute to the F.B.I., and the third
was a timely documentary on Palestine narrated
by Frederic March. On Sunday morning October
30th, fall and winter bowling begins. All members are urged to come down to Demos Bowling
Alleys and participate. This year we have something special to work for; and that something is
our entry into the Michigan B'nai Brith Bowling
League which will be held in Grand Rapids in
1950. And finally, on the academic side of the
ledger, in the near future we are going to have
an opportunity to hear Mr. Haskell Lazere of
the Anti-Defamation League, the exact date of
Mr. Lazere's talk will be announced later.

THE JEWISH population of Smyrna, Turkey,
has been reduced from 16,000 to 4,400 as a result of large-scale migration to Israel during
the last few months. In August alone, 2,000
Turkish Jews left the country for Israel,
which brought the total number of Jewish
emigrants from Turkey to Israel to above
25,000 in one year.
A SYNAGOGUE in Frankfurt was attacked by
three Nazis during Yorn Kippur eve services.
Two of the vandals were arrested; the third
escaped.
THE SECOND Rosh Hashanah since the state
of Israel was established was observed in
packed synagogues throughout the country.
Prime Minister David Ben Gurion and Cabinet
ministers and other Government officials
offernd their prayers in the new temple in
Northern Tai Aviv.
200 Ford trucks., paid for from funds which
I rael receivea in the Export-Import Bank
Joan, have been shipped to Israel.
THE ESTABLISHMENT of a Department of
Culture and Education to work in cooparation
with local Jewish educational and cultural
groups outside of Israel, has been announced
by the Jewish Agency. The department will be
headed by Dr. Hayim Greenberg, member of
the Amarican section of the Agency executive.
DISCRIMINATION against qualifid Jewish students seeking admission to colleges is widespread in p1;vate colleges in the Northeastern
section of the country, according to Elmo
Roper, public opinion analyst.

THANKSGIVING DAY
We give Thee thanks, 0 Lord!
Not for armed legions, marching in their might,
Not for the glory of the well-earned fight
Where brave men slay their brothers also brave;
But for the millions of Thy sons who workAnd do Thy ta k with joy-and never shirk,
And deem the idle man a burdened slave;
For these, 0 Lord, our thanks!
We give Thee thanks, 0 Lord!
Not for the palaces that wealth has grown,
Where ease is worshipped-duty dimly known,
And pleasure leads her dance the flowery way;
But for the quiet homes where love is queen
And life is more than baubles, touched and seen,
And old folks bless us, and dear children play;
For these, 0 Lord, our than ks!

MUSKEGON ' MxoH XGAN

September 28, 1960
To the
President and
Board of Directors,
Congregation B1 Na1 Israel,
Webster Avenue,
Muskegon, Michigan
Gentlemen:
You have seen several letters from me from time
to time, 1n which I have expressed my sat1sfact1on with the
progress of our community, my respect and adm1rat1on for
our Babb1, and my pleasure at attending well arranged and
conducted services at our Temple.
Now I come to cr1t1c1ze. I feel that I must express to you my great d1s-sat1sfact1on with happenings at
and the conduct of our evening and morning services of
Rosh Hashana last week.
I refer first, to the stat1on1ng
of a police officer at the very door of the Temple. This I
consider an insult to every one of us, every member of the
congregation. This must have been authorized by the Board;
1f so 1t was a sorry mistake.
I respect our Babb1 very much, he 1s a wonderful
man and leader, but I regret to say I think h1s •sermon" of
that first evening, references to the policeman and moneys
was, to say the least, 111 advised. It was undign1f1ed to
discuss such matters at a time when our people were 1n the
Temple for prayer, worship and instruction.
I abhor the apparent attitude of the present
Board toward the pledges and contributions of our people.
They seem to oYerlook the fact that these are recession times,
that 1t 1s not as easy for people to give now as 1t has been
during past good years.
I am well aware of our f1nanc1al
cond1t1on and our budget of some $32Aooo., but diplomacy 1s
needed to secure money, not clubs~ We need understanding and
tolerance amo#ng us, not antagonism. The bulldozing tactics
we have seen do more harm than good, instead of encouraging
people to come to the Temple, we are dr1v1ng them away.

�- - -/

I\.

This 1s my own personal opinion, but I fear that
our Board, while having on it a group of very fine young
men, 1s being controlled by just a few members--wh1le the
others just go along with them. In past years we have
accomplished a great deal in our community, end, in the
main everyone was happy and co-operative.
But--these few
directors have, by 111 advised tactics and actions, undone
much of the good accomplished 1n the past.
This letter 1s prompted by my anxiety for the
future of our congregation and my heart-felt desire that
that future be most successful in every sense.
Si~cerely yours~

TEMPLE B' NAI ISRAEL
MINUTES OF BOARD MEETING
9/28/61
A meeting was held on September 28, 1961, of the officers
and Board of Temple B' Nai Israel.

The meeting was called to

order by the President at 8 : 15 P.M.

Present were the following:

Abe Ashendorf, Rose Lawsj, Robert Li bner, I sad ore Ashendorf,
Alan Oppenheimer,~~§~cker, Arthur Bell, Dr . Arthur Greenberg,
Dr . Morris Teles, Rabbi Kaplan, Jack Lipman, Douglas Rosen,
Marvin Gudelsky, Or. Morton Kantor, Joel Wiener, Max Rothschild,
and Louis Grossman.
The Treasurer's report was read by Dr . Singer and approved.
The minutes of the previous meeting were read by the Secretary and

-

approved .
Old Business
1.

President Ashendorf advised us of the zone change

requested by Dr . Tyler for the property adjacent to the Rabbinate
and the hearing notice in this matter was referred by the President
to Sam Klayf and Leo Rosen for investigation .
2.

A letter of appreciation from Mrs . M'rmel was read and

acknowledged, as was a letter of appreciation to the Finance
Committee by Mr. and Mrs. Fonstein.
3.

Rose Lawson proposed that Dr . Singer be commended for his

excellent work and tact by the Finance Committee in the dues and
pledges for this year .
4.

Everyone concurred .

Marvin Gudelsky reported on the Board of Education and

the following matters were discussed pertaining to Re l igious and
-

1 -

�Hebrew School problems:
a.

That a definite contract is to be entered into between
the Board of Education and Mrs. Teles.

b.

The problem of prompt or earlier leaving for Sunday School
children, particularly in the younger grades, is to be
referred to the Board of Education .

c.

The matter of tuition for Hebrew School is to be reported
on and the possibilities of a Hebrew class for adult women,
if enough are interested.

d.

The parking and safety problem for the children on leaving
the Re ligious School was discussed, as was the mud, mire,

.,-

water and lighting problems and pipe problem in our adjacent
parking lot.

All of these matters were referred to the

Board of Education for further study and recommendations .
5.

Concerning the Ritual and Usher Committees, there was

extensive discussion and recommendations concerning the matter of
decorum at services, particularly at Holy Day services.

It was

suggested that these suggestions be formulated into formal ritual
or rules by the Usher and Ritua 1 Committees, to be acted upon,
approved or disapproved, in part or in whole, by the Board so
that the matter could be finalized amply before the next Holy
Day services.
It was suggested that it wou Id be preferred if no one cou Id
leave or enter the services during crucial points of the service,
particularly when the congregation is standing, when the Ark is
open, or prior to the conclusion of the Rabbi's sermon.

Further,

that no one shou Id leave during the Torah service or during the
- 2 -

�sermon, except in the case of emergency.

It was thought that

perhaps one way to obtain decorum in advance of the commencement
of the service would be for Mr . Bourziel to play the organ several
minutes prior to the commencement thereof .
6.

It was suggested that the small sanctuary be used for

children's services - that this be given consideration .

Abe Ashen-

dorf insisted that we should all, as Board members and officers,
urge attendance of our friends at the Friday evening services.
New Business
l.

It was agreed that we should send a letter of thanks to

the Adult Youth Group for their succah construction activities .
For the excellent work of the choir we should send special commendation .
2.

The fire alarm went off during the children ' s services in

the Holy Days and it was agreed that Max Rothschild construct a
hinged box over the fire alarm box .

This was referred to the

House Committee.
3.

To the House Committee was also referred the mattet of

inadequate lighting of our parking Jot .
4.

Louis Grossman proposed that we recognize Joseph Singer

for his cantorial services for this and past years and for this
year it was particularly appropos that we give him financial
recognition .

The amount of $500 . 00 was suggested by Mr . Grossman,

which was put in the form of a motion by Douglas Rosen , seconded,
and then discussion was had on the question of whether or not Mr .
Singer was to be paid $500 . 00 for his fine cantorial services for
the past Holy Days.

The motion was then amended by Mr . Rosen
- 3 -

�. . . . ..

to allege re imbursement for expenditures rather than a r ecognit i on
for services rendered .
Rosen ' s motion and

Thereafte r

fr, Teles '

&amp;i&gt;t Teles

moved to table Mr .

mot i on to table carried .

The motion

for presentation at the next meet ing w i 11 be the or i g i na 1 motion
to give Mr . Sfl,IP'th~a $500 . 00 g i ft in recognit i on of his past
cantorial services rather than as a reimbursement for expenses .
Mrs . Klayf and Mrs . Sarah Klein are in the hospital .

We

should go up and see them .
Abe Ashendorf was commended for his fine participat i on in
the Holy Days services .

A,r.

Rosen moved to congratulate the Rabbi for his f ine sermons

for the Holy Day services .
We are to send a letter to Dr . Philip Mil ler for his nice work
on the Shofar .
The meeting was adjourned at 10: 45 P. M.
Respectfu ll y submitted ,

Robert Libne r, Secretary .

Mr, Herbet't Steinman

Dear Mr. Steinman:
'1be postal department has asked the Temple to have a
larger opening put in the Webster Street door for mail.
The regular mail delivery is made in the late afternoon after
the office is closed and o6ten large pieces will not go through
the small opening. Also the postal department has a problem in
truck deliveries when the office is closed, as packages of
Sunday School papers and books must then be left outside the
door or returned to the post office,

Joel Wiener asked me to contact you and ask you to get
someone to make the mail opening larger as soon as possible.
I have the $S in cash at the office here for you which
you gave to Mrs. Penny for Coca Cola bottle deposit refund,
Anytime you are in the neighborhood stop in and pick it up,
Shall I put you on the list of dignitaries to be reminded
that the bulletins are about to go to press in case you have
anything relating to the House Committee that you would like
to have included in the bulletin? The next date is February 21.

Mr. Herbert Steinman

Dear Herb :
As promised, I've had duplicate Temple keys made for you and, from
the tags, you ' ll note they're for:
1 - Outside front door
2 - Boiler room door

3 - Master Key for inside doors

(At one time a master key
also operated the front doors, but the locks were changed,
and therefore a separate key is required for the outside
doors . )

It ' s 'ltl/f understanding, Herb, that you will assume the responsibility
of supervising the necessary changes, installations, etc . to improve
the operation of the Temple heating plant. In this connection, as soon
as I get the quotation which Johnson Service Company is to send me, I ' ll
relay the information on to you. In the meantime I understand that you
are already taking steps to have certain work done without waiting for
this particular quote .
I also understand that you now have in your possession the complete
plans for the building so t hat you can familiarize yourself with the
various mechanical aspects that will be helpful in carrying out the corrective procedures above mentioned. As soon as you have finished with
the plans, I will appreciate your having them returned to me here at the
office so that I can again take steps to have them placed in a secure
location.
Thanks again, Herb--I feel we're extremely fortunate to have a person of
both your capabilities and willingness for such undertakings.

The question of moving the Friday night service to Saturday

�C
mo1·n ing on any weeKend where a Bar Mitzvah was to be scheduled
Saturday morning was discussed but the general feeling was against
such a move and was strongly in favor of keeping open all Friday
night services .

with the Rabbi and give consideration to the Rabbi on any occasion

sermon on Fr i day night , where a Bar Mi tzvah was to be held the

Abe Ashendorf .

Present were:

Abe Ashendorf, Dr . Irving Singer,

Rabbi Kaplan; I sad ore Ashendorf; Bernard Becker; Max Rothschild;
Alan Oppenheimer; Arthur Bell; Rose Lawson; and Robert Libner .
1.

The Secretary read the minutes of the previous meeting

and they were approved .
2.

The Treasurer's report was read by Dr . Singer and was

approved .

Ur . Isadore Ashendorf suggested that the Treasurer

earmark on his report the accumulation of funds for the parking
lot improvement contemplated in the total amount of $2,000 . 00 .
The dues collections were reviewed and the delinquencies were
assigned to various Board Members for attempts at collection .
OLD BUS INESS
l.

Office Efficiency Committee (Alan Oppenheimer and Max

Rothsch il d ) indicated there was noth in g to report thus fa r .
2.

Arthur Bell indicated some dissatisfaction with the

wording concern i ng Yortzeit services in the Temple Bulletin and
this was to be clarified by the Rabbi in the next Bulletin so as
to indicate that it would be permissible to have the Yortzeit
service on the next Fri day night following the ann iversary of
the death .
3.

The Rabb i suggested a meeting be scheduled for the Ri tual

Comm i ttee to take up the matter of the appointment of various members of the congregation to take part at the services for what aid

�•

it may be in inducing additional attendance .

It was noted by the

group that there was an excellent attendance at the last Temple
Youth Service .
3a .

Max Rothschild and Arthur Bel 1 were designated to work

with the Rabbi in considering the appointment of various congregants
to take part in the services in the future so as to help attendance .
NEW BUS INESS .
1.

The Raobi gave a aetai led report on the Board of Education

and made known a problem of a delinquent dues congregant and parent
of a Sunday School child who was making slanderous statements concerning various people .

This was to be followed up by the Rabbi

and reported back to the Board if it got out of hand .
2.

The Rabbi advised that the Board of Education was con-

sider i ng the need for Youth Group Scholarships from the Temple
funds because the need for same surpasses the ability of the
Youth Group and the Board of Education to raise the money independently .

These scholarships are for the general purpose of

sending some of our youth to leadership conclaves and summer
camp, etc . , when the opportunit ies arise .
3.

Concerning the proposed planned additional classrooms

for the Religious School, the Board of Education desires some
voice in the planning of this project so as to enable suggest i ons
to be made by the Board of Education directly to the Temple Board
members work ing on this project in the hope of getting everyone ' s

•

viewpoint on this and perhaps solving problems in advance of the
erection of the new schoolrooms .
4.

The House Committee reported, through Dr . Singer, that

- 2 -

�$800 . 00 was collected from the insurance carrier for damages
created by the boiler in the Temple .
5.

Clher committees had nothing to report at this meeting

but it was generally felt that more committee meetings were going
to be scheduled in the future and the Social Action and the B' Nai
B' rith groups were going to integrate activities concerning the
Jewish problem in the community, wherever it existed .
GOOD AND WELFARE
Rabbi Kaplan reviewed the progress of the ill memoers of our
community, including Justin Gudelsky, Phi lip Gran i k, Selma Cahn,
~rs . Jacobs, Charles Rabinsky, Mrs . Klayf, Regina Ross and noted
that l.lrs . Kantor ' s father had passed away from a heart attack .

Proposals and plans were submitted by Rabbi Kaplan for

the expansion of the Religious School classrooms and also for a

beyond the present level.

not approve it now, this will be commenced no earlier than with
the present seventh grade and no late r than for the fifth grade .

The Soc ial Action Comm i ttee was represented by Rabbi Kaplan,

Edd ie Penney to stay long enough so that the 10 ch i ldren attending

not come to the Temple when it was unattended and unchaperoned .
The matter of starting services at 8 : 15 rather than 8 : 30 was

the Rabbi ' s schedule, since he had confirmation classes extending
to 8 : 15 or 8:30 on Board Meeting nights .
Leo Rosen advised us that the matter of the Temple's
contribution to the Rabbi ' s pension fund was resolved on his trip
to Chicago recently.

He suggested that the mortgage burning ceremony

be held in abeyance to be celebrated in conjunction with the proposed
Temple expansion program and this wi 11 be brought up again at the

presently existing Temple building expansion program .
of this recommendat i on was decided at this meeting .

BOARD MEETING
TEMPLE B' NA I I SRA EL
Apri 1 26, 1963.
Ml NUTES

The meeting was called to order by President Marvin Gudelsky
at 8 : 07 P. M.
OFF ICERS PRESENT :

Marvin Gudelsky; Alan Oppenheimer; Joel

Weiner; Rose Lawson; Robert Libner; and Max Rothschild .
TRUSTEES PRESENT:

Mrs . Helen Parker; Mrs . Lawson; Mrs . Elaine

Friend; Dr . Maurice Stromberg; Douglas Rosen; Sam Singer; Bernard
Stern; Dr. Greenberg; Arthur Bell; Leo Rosen; Rabbi Kaplan; Or .
Teles; Jack Steindler; Bernard Becker; Abe Ashendorf; Isadore
Ashendorf; and Jess Levin .
The first order of business was discussion by the President
of our very embarrassing financial predicament .

It was noted that

we needed at least an additional $400.00 by the end of this month
to pay our current bills and delinquent pledgees were discussed and
names allocated to Board members for collection .
Good and Welfare .
1.

A condolence letter was to be mailed to the Reuben Berman

family, Rose Lawson to prepare same.
2.

Rabbi Kaplan was to prepare a message for i nscr ipt ion upon a

plaque consisting of a resolution of recognition of the past services
of the deceased Reuben Berman to the community and this plaque was
to be given to the widow at a suitable opportun i ty .
3.

Mrs . Cherin asked for unskilled labor from the Board members to
-1-

�fix the shelving for the Religious School and Sisterhood in the
office and also advised us of her need for a lock on her drawer .
Leo Rosen wisely suggested that a professional be hired to avoid
the probab i l i ty of a botcned job .
4.

Alan Oppenheimer, on behalf of B' Na i Brith, requested a place

for B' Nai Brith mater ials i n our Temple library as well as a bulletin
board .

The bulletin board request was for posting literature of

the Anti-defamation League .

Because of objections to the public

nature of the 1 ibrary space , the bu! let in board concept was denied .
The library space request was granted .
Minutes of the February meet i ng were r ead by Secretary protempore, Rose Lawson , and were corrected to include other Trustee
membe r s present, consist i ng of Bernard Stern, Dr . Greenberg and
Alan Oppenheimer in addition to those prev i ously noted in the
minutes .

The minu t es were approved as corrected .

Marv in Gudelsky discussed the advisability of a Temple contribut i on to the Al l Fa iths Chapel .

This matter was informally

tabled .
Ma r v i n Gudelsky indicated the need for his appo i ntment of a
Nominating Committee and proposed several names .

Not r equiring

Board acceptance or approval , he is to undertake this on his own .
Mrs . Helen Parke r welcomed the assistance and help of the
Board of Trustees in the sale of the Murray Banks tickets .
New Bus iness .
The Rabbin ical contract was discussed at length and culminated
in a mot i on on the part of Douglas Rosen that the existing contract

~

now had with Rabbi Kaplan be extended for a period of an additional
one year commencing August 30, 1963 and extending through September

- 2-

�'

I, 1964.

The motion was seconded by Bernard Becker and there was

considerable discussion, after which the question was called for
and the motion carried, 23 yeas, I nay (the nay vote being a Board
of Trustee member who had expressed a desire for a continuing open
contract) .
Respectfully submitted,

Robert Libner, Secretary .

�June 27, 196.3
The Board Meeting of Tenple B1 nai Israel was called to order by the President
Marvin Gudelsky at 8:00 rM in the Temple , Those present were: Helen Parker, Bernard
Becker, Jack ~teiooler, Jack Lipman, Robert Libner, Jesse Levin, Dr, Arthur Greenberg,
Dr. Irving Sinl;E!r, Isadore. Ashendorf, Joel Wiener, Marvin Gudelsky, Abe Ashendorf,

Robert Libner, ::,ecretary, read the minutes of the
meeting of May 2.)rd and they were accepted as read. The treasurer's report was presented
and the financial status of the Temple was discussed.
A report was made b, the chairman of the Board of Education, Joel Wiener, about the
prQjected 196.3-64 budget, The Board of Education a1 proved a budget of $h, 780 and recommended the approval of said budget by the Temple Board. A detailed description of the
budget as relate.4 to the Hebrew and Sunday Religious School Classes was presented. It
was emphasized that by adopting thi.s budget, it would be in part decreasing quality, The
possibility of increasing tuition was introduced . Rabbi Kaplan stressed the importance
of Hebrew Education . It was stated by Jack Lipman that we should continue to provide a
Hebrew education to as many as possible,and therefore, not to increase tuition for
Hebrew or,for that matter, Sunday classes.

Dr. Teles offered a plan to put the Hebrew School under his jurisdiction with
laason with the Rabbi and the Board of Education and partially su~ported by the Temple
tu help alleviate the financial problems of the Te.'llple. Strong feeling was expressed
that the Tem~le retain full responsibility for the Hebrew School even though Dr. Teles•s
offer was aF-preciated and could still be considered at a later date . Rabbi Kaplan
stressed the importance of a united school emphasizing the fact that we have an excellent
staff in both areas - our problems are mainly financial and its solution should be encouraged by private donation.
Douglas Rosen moved that the Board of Education budget of $4,780, 00 as recol!lllended
to the Board be a,proved as a minimum budget for 196.3-64 year. Eugene Fisher seconded
it. After Rabbi Kaplan finely detailed the proposed budget in comparison to last year• s
budget 1the motion was carried.
A

thank you note was received and read from Ira Schwartz.

An a weal was rre.de to find additional funds to improve the quality of education
to be provided by this approved budget.

There being no further business the meeting was adjourned.

TO THE MEMBERS OF CONGREGATION B'NAI ISRAEL:
On the occasion of the fiftieth Anniversary of
Congregation B1Nai Israel, it is a pleasu:re and a
privilege to send you personal good wishes and to
greet you on behaU of the people of Michigan.

In these days when change and confll8ion are rife
throughout the world, it is heartening to find a
people whose devotion to the ancient faith of their
fathers remains unaltered through the centuries. If
eTery American pledged the same ateadfast allegiance
to the principles of liberty and freedom upon which
our great democracy is founded, the future security
and welfare of the United States would be assured.
During the fifty years eince Congregation B 1l!ai Israel
was established, it has not only served its members
well bet has contributed in no smAll meaoure to the
community life of the City of Muskegon. It 1a my
earnest hope that 1n the years to come, au in the past,
Congregation B 1Na1 Israel will continue steadily to
grow and prosper.

Loss to Community.
It is )luskegon's misfortune to lose
simultaneouslr two young clerg)•men
who have served not only their congre,..
gations but in the larger fields of ci\'ic
opportunities. The R•"· Arnold. Brink,
pastor of Bethan; Christian Reformed
chur&lt;:h, has accepted the post of educational sec1·ctar)' at Calvin college,
Grand Rapids. Rabb' J9uil~_tl.9)v.
pastor of the c;o;;'grcgation, Sons of
Israel, is taking a similar position in
Warren, Ohio.
The Rev. )Ir. Brink came to )luskeiion ten years ago. While still a student in the theoloiical seminar; of
Cah-in college. he was given chargo of
lhe ncwl)' organized Bluffton chapel.
Receiving permanent appointment as
assistant pastor oi Bethany church on
his graduation in 1938, Rev. )Ir. Brink
has since given of hi• lime and talenl5
in the service of many cMr&lt;:h and
1
other community betterment endca, or~.
Likewise Rabbi Satlow, who came to
'Muskegon early in 1945.
Young leaders such M these two
men are an asset any community can
see Jost to iUJ service only with deet&gt;·
est regret.

JACK STEINDLER, CHAIRMAN

UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES
OF GREATER MUSKEGON

1965

....

�MESSAGE FROM THE U.J.C. CHAIRMAN

Dear Fellow Jew and Fellow Contributor

Just a few days ago, as we observed Passover, we read the
story of the Exodus. For those of us who are participants in a U .J .A .
drive, this is not just the retelling of an ancient event, for we realize
that in almost every generation there is a new Exodus. But it is
our generation that has been fortunate in helping to secure a land
for those who must leave their "House of Bondage".
I wish to thank each of you for the contributions that you have
made during the past year, and will continue to make to our current
campaign. Our task has not been completed, nor will it be as long
as so many of our fellow Jews must wait in hostile lands for their
chance to enter Israel.

Jack Steindler

RICHARD KAUFMAN, CHAIRMAN

UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES
OF GREATER MUSKEGON
1963 - 1964

�MESSAGE FROM THE U. J.C. CHAIRMAN

Dear Fellow Jew and Fellow Contributor,
You and I accomplished our goal in the 1964 campaign. We
con find satisfaction and toke pride in this achievement. As Jews,
we helped other Jews and helped ourselves.
For example, contributions of $325 each transported a Jew
from North Africa to Israel and provided for him or her while in
transit; a contribution of $150 bought hot nourishing lunches for
four school children in North Africa for the entire year; $450
provided six speakers from the Anti-Defamation League to speak
at col'leges and universities to refute anti-Jewish Arab propaganda;
and a $1000 subsidy permitted a young Rabbi to finish his studies
at the Hebrew Union College.
Our job is not done. There are still one million Jews abroad
who exist only to be delivered to Israel. There ore still Arab
inciters in the United States who would destroy Israel. There are
still Ku Klux Klanners and Nazis who would destroy you and me.
Therefore, with the satisfaction of having accomplished our
goals in 1964 and having helped fellow Jews and ourselves: let us
re-set our goals to the needs of this year. Let us thank God that we
are the charitable port of World Jewry who are able to contribute
to the future.

Dick Kaufman

JOEL WIENER
Chairman

�MESSAGE FROM THE U.J.C. CHAIRMAN

In this day and age of tremendous speed and scientific advancement, we of the Jewish faith are dealing with on archaic problem.
That of helping our fellow Jews.
This is not a new problem and with the passage of time it has
taken many forms.

We in the United States are greatly blessed.

We have the freedom and rights other Jews were unable to have.
Israel is providing the rights we toke for granted.
We must help our fellov.. man; it is our duty and privilege. The
resettlement of Jews released from Iron Curtain and other countries is costly.

To accomplish this aim, UJA needs your help.

As a member of UJC and our community, your participation,
no matter how large or small, is necessary.

HERMAN GROSSMAN'S-U.J.C. MESSAGl:
THE recent Eichmann trial is symbolic of Israel's role in the total
universal mosaic, of which it is a vibrant, living, growing part. As
members of a world community, in whose name Israel acts in this
case, we place Eichmann on trial, not for his life, but for life
itself, and in a greater compass we talk of the survival of the
life of the State of Israel itself. This is of course a big port, but
only a part, of United Jewish Appeal participation in world
wide charity. "TZEDAKAH" embraces all forms of those in need,
and loving thy neighbor encompasses a conviction that we help
oil brethren, wherever they may be, who are in need. Our religion should teach us that ritual is only a port of being religious;

it should consist also of service and charity -

and this means

participation to what ever extent, however smal I or large, by
every member of our community. For each member who is weak,
the surviving must be strong. Our work in the great experiment
of the instinct of the human will is the ultimate response and
fulfillment of replacing weakness with strength.

Here's to a

great campaign for 1961- 1962.

HERMAN GROSSMAN,
Chairman -

LOUIS M. BERMAN
Chairman

�TO OUR CHAIRMAN, LOU BERMAN
"THE ONE AND ONLY 0
Yes, we've known them all over the years and still say
"The One and Only." And from Lou, each of us can take a
lesson in the connotations of charity at its loftiest levels. For
this means not only giving of one's worldly means ( as Lou has
always done) but also giving of one's self to serve your fellow
man, your coreligionist of less fortunate status and your brethren
rn Israel.
To Lou the U.J.C. 1959-60 chairmanship was a personal
challenge as well as an honor. His concept of responsibility was
so profound that he personally assumed the task of seeing that
the U.J.C. story was presented personally and properly to everyone in our entire community be they $1,000 or $5 givers. The
demands of time, the expenditures of gasoline and shoe leather
did not dissuade him, nor did the pains of illness deter his efforts.
Our community was "blanketed'' as never before. No one
was overlooked or forgotten.
the main part of the task -

Lou, and Lou himself, performed

did it painstakingly, thoroughly, and

with genuine dedication.
May the advent of time bring to our community and to the
cause of U.J.C. more Lou Sermons. In absentia all of us salute

him!

TO MEMBERS OF JEWISH
COMMUNITY IN MUSKEGON
First I want to thank all of you for giving me the opportunity to be your chairman during the past year. It gave me a
great deal of pleasure to have been received with kindness
and gratitude in quite a number of homes because they had
a chance to participate in this great work.
When the younger generation of the religious school, the
Junior U. J. C., gave us money to help the less fortunate people
abroad, it was an indication that the future of U. J. C. will be
in good hands.

The adage "A child shall lead them" is still

a good slogan.
I owe my deepest gratitude to our treasurer, Leo Rosen,
and our secretary, Rose Lawson, as without them I could not
have carried on.
I am proud of this community.

I have known all of you

thru the years and as my friends I do appreciate your cooperation and help in putting this campaign across.
When you give to those whom you do not know and may
never see, but whom you still want to help, your brother Jews,
so they may enjoy the good things of life, you are living the
life of a gracious and good Jew.
In conclusion I ask that the good lord bless you all and
keep you well.

I.

JOSIAH WIENER
Chairman

�TO MEMBERS OF JEWISH
COMMUNITY IN MUSKEGON
As I complete this year as chairman of Muskegon United
Jewish Charities, I feel I owe my deepest gratitude to my coworkers: especially to Mr. Milton Steindler, co-chairman; to
Mr. Leo Rosen, Treasurer; and to Mrs. Samuel Lawson, Secretary.
Handicapped by unforeseeable illness, they have stood by me
in facing another sorrow-laden and turbulent year of world
Jewry. Though we have not been aware of the difficulties of
our people abroad during this past year to the degree we have
been in previous years, nevertheless the problems of the last
decade are still with us and therefore our responsibilities are
still enormous.
The response by our total community has been good and
we pray will continue to be good.

However, our goal for the

coming year can be even higher as a community if we will be
strengthened by those who can help even more than they have
in the past. Let no reason, even present adverse economic conditions, cause us to shirk our duty here and overseas.
The Jewish concept of charity, if our attitudes and understanding are properly directed, is very contagious and once it
enters the heart one is forever and hopelessly a greater person.
And moreover CHARITY as TSEDOKOH

(righteousness)

calls

upon all of us to give freely and generously according to the
blessings God has bestowed upon us.

�MESSAGE

FROM

THE

CHAIRMAN

CONGRATULATIONS, MUSKEGON JEWRY! Your generosity has saved over 25 lives this past year. Yes, 1957 was a
refugee year - with more than 100,000 Jewish men , women
and children facing disaster and death. To save a single refugee
costs $1000.00. This is the average amount needed to see him
through his first year - to resettle him, house him, and start
him on the road to self-support in Israel or any free land.
Through your unselfish contributions, you have shown your true
way of life.
As my administration comes to an end, all of our funds
collected, ( except for a small customary working balance,)
have either been expended or ear-marked. Thus we are financially depleted, but spiritually enriched by having expended
and allocated generously to the support of the United Jewish
Appeal and the other charities as detailed in this report. Now
my successor finds himself with no carry over of funds, and
therefore, he too must have the same financial support you so
generously gave to save lives during my campaign.
In all humbleness, I give thanks to my Co-Chairman, Secretary, and Trustees for their untiring efforts in wholly supporting
this campaign throughout the year. Special thanks to Mr. U. J . C.
himself, Mr. Leo Rosen , our dedicated treasurer . Thanks, Mrs .
Robert Rosenberg and your committee, for a job well done .
I should like to close this message with this thought: Only
if Muskegon and American Jewry will it, can inhumanity be
answered with humanity . Only if YOU will it, can lives be
saved, not lost.
May God bless you.
Frederick W. Stein,
Chairman 1956-57

�December 3, 1957
United Jewish Charities,
Muskegon, Michigan.

Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request, I have audited the books and records
of the UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES, of Muskegon, Michigan, for the year
ended November 30, 1957, and submit, herewith, my report on my
findings.
The books were accurately kept and were in balance at the year end.
Included in the report are the following:
Statement of Receipts and Disbursements.
Statements of Charitable Allocations.
Schedule of pledges for various funds.
Balance sheet as at November 30, 1957.
Cash on hand consisted of checks collected subsequent to the last
deposit, some of which are post dated, and are to be deposited within
the next few days.

Bonds in the amount of $1500 were received on

account of pledges and are being held for disposition. During the year
the prior pledge of Mike Goldberg in the amount of $50.00 was cancelled.
In my opinion, according to the accepted principles of accounting,
the attached statements and schedules truly reflect your operations for
the year ended November 30, 1957, and your financial condition as
of that date.
Thanking you for this opportunity to again serve you, I am,
Respectfully yours,
WALTER A. DIXON.
Certified Public Accountant.

�MESSAGE

FROM

THE

CHAIRMAN

On behalf of the officers and trustees of the United Jewish
Charities of the year 1955-56, I wish to thank all in our community who had a part in making this drive the success it has been.

Personally, I am grateful for having been selected chairman
of the Muskegon United Jewish Charities for the past year.

I

have gained a knowledge of service work that is priceless and
have learned how essential are these funds to the multitude of
services that the organizations perform for the cause of humanity.

I have found that when the need is present men who feel
the responsibility arise to the occasion. My sincere thanks to my
co-chairman, Fred Stein, and my treasurer, Leo Rosen who have
responded so magnificently and my sincere gratitude to all the
board of directors.

Best wishes and success for the 1956 - 57 drive to the chairman, the officers and the board.
Joseph S. $trifling,
Chairman 1955-56

�MESSAGE

FROM

THE

CHAIRMAN

As we approach another campaign in behalf of the United
Jewish Charities of Greater Muskegon, I would like to express
my thanks to all who have contributed during the past year,
and to the members of the Board who have given unselfishly
of their substance and their efforts. We have found happiness
in the realization that we are our brothers' keepers. Our brothers
in many parts of the world are facing serious crises. They need
our help desperately.

It is only through our organized U.J.C.

that we are enabled to unite with Jews everywhere in extending a
helping hand . Israel, faced with isolation, surrounded by hostile
states, craves our assurance that she has not been abandoned.
By our gifts to U.J.C. we are giving Israel our support which will
enable her to weather the present crisis as she has weathered
other crises in the past.

Let us continue to give, work, and sacrifice, for "God loveth
a willing giver."

�November 30, 1955
United Jewish Charities,
Muskegon, Michigan.
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request, I have audited the books and records of
the UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES of Muskegon, Michigan, for the year
ended November 30, 1955, and submit, herewith, my report on my
findings.
The books were accurately kept and were in balance at the year end.
Included in the report are the following:
Statement of Receipts and Disbursements.
Statements of Charitable Allocations.
Schedule of pledges for charity and milk fund.
Balance sheet as at November 30, 1955.
Cash on hand consisted of checks detailed in this report, which
were in the hands of Mr. Ted Neumer and one note which was for
60 days, in the amount of $100.00.
In my opinion, according to the accepted principles of accounting,
the attached statements and schedules truly reflect your operations for
the year ended November 30, 1955, and your financial condition as of
that date.
Thanking you for this opportunity to again serve you,

am,

Respectfully yours,
WALTER A. DIXON.
Certified Public Accountant.

�MESSAGE

FROM

THE HONORARY CHAIRMAN
We are deepiy grateful to Mr. Herman Grossman for his assuming
the chairmanship of the United Jewish Charities during the past year.
His was a leadership that was forthright and dynamic.

With Herman

in the chair, there never was a dull moment at meetings.

His deep-

rooted interest in the cause which he championed was expressed not
only in his hard-hitting words, but in his traveling many hundreds of
miles to regional U.J.A. conferences where he drew inspiration to carry
on in the community.
For his devotion and self-sacrifice, we extend to Herman Grossman
our most heartfelt thanks.
PAUL M. WIENER,
Honorary Chairman.

�MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN

As the 19 52-1953 year in the United Jewish Charities program
closes, I give thanks and gratitude on behalf of the officers and trustees
to a splendid community which continues to take its place among the
Jewish communities of Michigan. I say splendid because our community,
through its local efforts, has manifested its desire to help bring to fruition man's instinct and determination to be free, an event we witnessed
in Israel. I say splendid because our community, through its local efforts,
has asserted its faith that there is a force for freedom and for good in
Israel. I say splendid because our community, through its local efforts,
has declared that the experiment seen in the rebirth of the world's
youngest democracy shall not fail.

I say splendid because our commun-

ity, through its local efforts, has affirmed the strength of the Israeli soul
which boasts a vastly greater power than any material consideration, a
power which has settled for nothing less than freedom, a power so great
that it surpasses the violence of the sun itself.

I say splendid, too, because I know that you will not relax your
efforts to help my successor.

This work for the United Jewish Charities

is a life-giving work for the entire community. I believe we can, I believe
we must, mold and recreate the spiritual and moral leadership which
has always united our peoples.

I say splendid, again, for from this

power to unite has come the rare gift of providing so much more for
such a greater cause. Continue to encourage this young man who has
just gone into business for himself.

And for your generosity, and for

your overflowing hearts, God bless you.

HERMAN GROSSMAN
Chairman

�December 9, 1953
United Jewish Charities,
Muskegon, Michigan.
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your request, I have audited the books and records of
the UNITED JEWISH CHARITIES of Muskegon, Michigan, for the year
ended November 30, 1952 and November 30, 1953, and submit, herewith, my report on my findings.
The records were accurately kept and were in balance for both years
under audit.
Included in this report are the following:
Statements of Receipts and Disbursements.
Statements of Charitable Allocations.
Schedules of pledges, for charity and milk fund.
Balance sheet as at November 30, 1953.
Cash on hand is shown in detail and the bank account was reconciled with a statement from the depository.
In my opinion, according to the accepted principles of accounting,
the attached statements and schedules truly reflect your operations for
the two preceding fiscal years and your financial condition as at November 30, 1953.
Thanking you for this opportunity to again serve you,

am,

Respectfully yours,
WALTER A. DIXON.

Certified Public Accountant.

�-A MESSAGE FROM

-----

THE HONORARY CHAI ~AN

....,_,.. ____,,...._,...~

The un·ted Jewish Charities of Greater
}1uskegon should not be regarded merely as a
unified fund-raising instrument that swings
into operation only during the day~ of its
annual campaign.
Throug out the year, the United Je ish
Charities of Greater Muskegon is your community servant and trustworthy agent of your
humanity. It performs a multitude of services.
The organizations
hich it helps to support
encompass a large part of the globe and
include significant efforts in your behalf in
the United States and in our own community of
Greater 1uskegon.
So that you may kno
the sources of the
funds and ho
they are utilized, this annual
report is being sent to you by your Chairman,
Samuel Lipman.
The accomplishments of the United Jewish
Charities of Greater uskegon during the fiscal year 1948-49 evoked high praise among the
Jewish communities of the country.
fice
this
tude
task

For the outstanding leadership and sacriand devotion to the cause of humanity,
comI!lunity ackno ledges a debt of gratiand appreciation to Samuel Lipman for a
well done.
PAUL M. WIENER

Honorary Chairman

�-A ~AGE FROM -THE CHAIHMAN
In terminating the campaign of 1948-49, I look
back upon the years spent in the administration or
the United Jewish Charities of Greater Muskegon.
Arter tour years as Treasurer, the past year as
Chairman and a board member since the organization's inception, I have had the honor and the
privilege, as well as the heartfelt satisfaction of
contributing, in part, to the formation and maintenance or the new Jewish state.
Not only do I reel that I have contributed to
the welfare of my brethren, but in doing this, I
have seen the positive results or true values;
I have gained a working knowledge of religion and
altruism, The success of one's undertakings brings
with it a joy and spirit unsurpassed.
The Jewry of Muskegon can be proud . of the role
it played in the fulfillment or our dreams. However, we must be mindful of the fact that our task
is, as yet not completed. It is not enough to support financially; we must also give of our time and
effort. I hope and pray that those men and women
who are capable of leadership will assume their
responsibility and that the members of our community will co-operate to insure the success of future
campaigns.
I wish to take this opportunity to express my
sincere gratitude to my co-workers and to the community at large for their generous and unstinting
time, money and effort.
I'm sure all of us have
.benefitted spiritually and materially from participating in the worthiest cause in the history of
mankind.

�A STATEMENT OF SISTERHOOD PHILOSOPHY
BY JANE EVANS, EXOCtJrIVE DIRECTOR
NATION'AL FEDERATION OF TEMPLE SISTERHOODS
AT THE STATE PRESIDENTS' COUNCIL, NEU YORK, N. Y., NOVEMBER 1-2, 1949

We o.re the wor1en 1 s o.ru of J\L1erico.n llnd World Reforo, Libero.l or Progressive Judo.isc .
:1c o.re not o. social orgnnizo.tion; ue llre not o. philo.nthropic orgo.nization; we o.re
o. religious gro~ dedicated to the philosophy that the congrego.tion is the logico.l
unit of organizo.tion in Isro.el, o.nd that through congrego.tiono.l life the codern
jewess co.n raost effectively exercise her influence upon Jewish o.nd non-Jewish life .
Religion is the centro.l core of the vo.st contribution which we, the Jewish people,
uake to hUt?o.nity nnd to ourselves .

We will be better Sisterhood cei;1bers, Sto.te o.nd

District leo.ders o..~d officers of the No.tiono.l Fedcro.tion of Tenplc Sisterhoods only
o.s we understand that J udo.isu, the religion of our people, is the source of all our
service to Jewish and huoanita rio.n co.uses.

From this s tandpoint, we t1u»t reco.11

with sooe hu:lility a few of the cr.arges co.de a.go.inst us .

i-/e tend to welcone wor,en

to our Boards, whether of State Federations or of loco.l Sisterhoods, irrespective of
whether or not they are reo.lly expressing their interest in our central philosophy
through the accepto.nce of the obligations of regulo.r temple and synagogue attendo.nce .
It is not beyond the real.J:1 of possibility that we could use State and District conventions to educo.te our cet1bers and ourselves upon our central philosophy of Sisterhood life .

We o.re a fellowship of wooen religiously t1otivated, recognizing the

congregation o.s a logical unit of organization in Jewish life, dedicated to the
service of Jewish and hucanito.rian causes through the centrality of Judaisc, the
religion through which we translate our beliefs into deed for the benefit of K'lal
Israel (the whole of the household of Isro.el) o.nd cllnkind.

Si sterhood again meets the challenge of another year in our new
r

Temple - a year filled with more responsibilities , greater accomplishments , and further joys and satisfactions •. •' Our higher goals
and realizations of i ncreasing responsibilities belong to each
and every one of us .

Those who served faithfully in the past

have the inner satisfaction of an obligation fulf i lled .

Thi s all

presents a very favorable picture if we can lay aside the trials ,
tribulatioss , and decending faetors with which every organization
must contend .

However , many existing di fficult i es would never

come to be if we all realized that too much has been accomplished
by too few .

Let this thought serve as a lesson to gui de our

course in the future.
On behalf of Sisterhood , I wish to thank our offi cers
whose faf hful and efficient services are gr eatly appr eciat ed .
1.

Sophie Lebow who conducted all boa rd meeti ngs
and was in charge of membership and hospitality.

2.

Rose Lawson- Gener al Chairman of all fund rais ing
functions , unti r ingly re s ponded to all duties ,
requests and unsolicited needs.

J.

Dora Berman ' s r~i nutes are detailed , a ccur a t e and
beautifully written .

All necessary correspondence

was always assured promptly .
4.

Ellen Aron shows in great detail money received
and di_spersed .

Ellen also served with Mildred

Rodoff on the budget committee .

Milly ' s very

valuable knowledge and experience helped us greatly
in our financial goal .
Our briefly written thank yous to the fol l owi ng board
members is measurably small compared t o the f i ne result s .
/

However,

�- 2-

time not permitting may the ability and the satisfaction of bei ng
of service to others suffice .
PROGRAM :
'fhe climiix to our business meeting always brought what
we might term as "dessert ".

Our chairman, Mrs. Samuel Umen per-

formed outstandingly in her diversified program selections ,
which included book reviews , timely topics , dramatic productions ,
and entertainment of ga i e t y. and fun .

These programs were always

stimulating, interesting and informative .
UNIONGRAMS :
We can proudly brag for Mrs . Mary Pogel as chairman
l'lhen we say she is responsible with the assistance of Mrs .
Samuel Buckland of beating an all t ime record by selling six
hundred and eighty uniongrams .

This amount is l!learly doubl e

the requirement .
SEWING :
This project brought few , but steady fa i thful and
loyal workers under the leadershi p of Mrs . Milton Steindler .
Frances ' s wise and careful purchases and utilization of materials
so far have netted us ~82 . 50 .

We are most appreciative of

t hese ladies for their faithful service .

A very hearty t'1anks

goes to Esther Rubinsky who in the absence of our chairman efficiently
carried the responsibility of directing the .ladie~ in her own ho!le • . 1

It has been tol d that a t ~ served~ If you feel that you have or
will qualify , consider yourself invited.

Let this serve as an

inducement for the professionals or the amateurs wi l ling to learn .
In conjw tion with Sewing , Reeva Levy and Co- Chairman
fan Stern rnade very practical purchases of gifts and ceremonials
for different occasions throughti:&gt;ut the year .

The•1 many customers
(

�- 3-

,

were well pleased having purc hased gifts not readily available .
&lt;

ONEG SHEBBOTH :
Our Oneg Shabboth ' s were increasiry more interesting
and we were happy to serve our Temple., , Cha irma~ Esther Stein.&gt;
in obtaining hostesses assumed her duties very well .

The

delicious home made cakes added a pleasant taste to the vlose of
our Friday night services.
SUNDAY SCHOOL :
Sisterhood met its primary obligation , namely the
financial support and mainteniance of the Sunday Scg66l ahd
Hebrew School in all its entirety .

Mrs . Harry H. Berman as

Superintendant fulfilled her duties admirably , a·nd we certainly
want to extend our thanks to her and our teachers who served
us and our children .
The Sunday School parties were always lovely .

Every

holiday celebrated brought student particigation and interest .
One program that gave much pleasure was "A ::,ick Purim".

'l'o

many of us parents , greater joy was brought 1 than any Broadway
production .

Credit for this fine J irection goes to Jean Berman

with the assistance of Lenore Umen .
Refreshments are always a ,ifi ghli ght of most affairs.
Mrs . Samuel Price was li:n charge of all Sunday School parties
/ stimulated many appetites by bringing different , delicious
and appropriate foods for all occasions .
As a pre-e:::hool introduction to our Sunday schhol, our
Cradle Roll parties conducted by Rose Friedenberg , Lee ?isher ,
and Helen Roberts carried the desired purpose and showed the
joyful response of our little tots i n the beginning of their Temple
debut .

Our newly formed "Board of Education" consisting of
appointees of four members each of both Sisterhbod and Temple
boards , and led by Rabbi Umen

comp◊,sed

our very fine monthly

fu~tioning board,btand:~~1JY},,:'fquirements for Sunday School
and Hebrew Sc h o o l ~ ~ n y proliems , grievances , or needs
in general were presented at this time.
CHOIR:
Our i mpressive Friday and Ternple servi ces a r e partially
due to our choir .

Mrs . Robert Rosenberg , as chairman functioned

very efficiently .

Rose was willing to take the chance of bringing

in any new voice .

"The America All

our choir

represented the Jewish community was very impressive.
We offer our most hearty tha nks and a ppreciation to
the following .
Irene Steindler f or securing hostesses f or each meeting

Helen Roberts for her 1ink reports.

IJltt,

The past and potential members showed the desiree

interest when fifty - eight ladies out of our present ninety-two
members came with their ten dollar dues in order to partake of
the fa11 paid up rnembership"L~tke Dinner'' that .:&gt;isterhood offered.
Sophi e Lebow and her committee served a very delicious meal , amd well
worth the admitting pr i ce.

The money was ~reatly needed and wisely

spent for a stage curta in for our Recreation Room.

Mrs, Harry Fi sher

a nd co- chairman Mrs. Leo, Rosen assumed the responsibility of the initial
steps in the selection of the material and decorator .

Behind the stage

On Sunday evening , November 6 , the Gol den Book Dedication took pl a ce.
All local organizations l ent a helping hand.

Sisterhood assU111ed the g«N«tt

general chairmanship , along with the food preparations and t able decorations.
' When the treasurer 's report showed a u«~«x«f balance of$2OJ.S2
we felt the i mmediate need of another fund raising function.

Thi s activi -

Betty Price as Chair-

man left no home or store unsolicited. Her conscientiousness was clearly
shown when she collected the rummage almost singlehandedly.

Much appreci-

Purim tine brought t he whole family to Temple f or a supper, carnival and enterta inment.

Rose Lawson , as general chairman worked as

A baked goods sale, knick-knack

booth and a doll and apron display brought very remunerative results.
Many people lent a helping hand and to the chairmen of these indiviaual
projects , we offer many thanks .

Efficiency, organi~a tion a nd arrangements , not ~,i th-

s tanding the countless hours that our chairman and her efficient staff of
co-workers spent in elaborate preparations is an affair that will long be
remembered.

We are grateful to Rabbi Umen for his very impressive Seder

services along with his unique ability in RRh'.xi enhancing our treasu~y
with his handling of the "Afikomin" money.

Credit goes to the following

who served as sub-chairmaen; Beryl Rosenberg, Mr. &amp; Mrs. Fred Rodoff , Mr.
and Mrs. Mag Lebow, Mrs , Morris Levine, and Mrs . Esther Freedman.
A second rummage sale was held this Spring , which although not as
lucrative as our first sale , helped swell the general funds.
Our concluding project is a hand-made afghan, generously donated
by Mrs . Ida Ashendorf, and led by Mrs. Mary Fogel .

Our chairman has con-

scientmously made every possible effort to make this activity a financial
success.

An excellent suggestion of our chairman is to
Two tidkets purchased by each guest with ten

people present would sell one book of tmckets,

Try this and enjoy the free

luncheon wo which you are entitled.
In the above mentioned re port, you will note that no mention was
made of receipts or disbursements , and at this time it would be f itting to
have our treasurer Ell en Aron show us the status of our treasury throughout
the year .

�During the 20th century, the Jew,sn world has undergone radical chan91,,,s, yet the last classic
Jewish encyclopaedia, n English was completed 65 "years ago. New perspecti ves on Jewish
history and Judaism have been created in our lifetimes. A new world has emerged in our
generation. Intensive research into new areas of Jewish studies has brought new under•
standing to Jewish history up to the present moment.

�PROCEDURES TO BE FOLL017ED mtEN FOR'RARDING DUES TO
THE NATIONAL OFF~
l.

Membership cards must be sent at the SAME TIME as the dues remittance.
Otherwise, discrepancies occur between chapter and office records, and
the niunes of the members cannot be entered on the NE'/ISLETTER mailing list,

2.

Checks for dues should be made out to HADASSAH, INC.

3.

Dues to the national office must be remitted on the following basis only:
Annual Dues

First-Half Payment
Second-Half P~ent

$2.75
1.50
1 . 25

l'lhen a member pays semi-annual dues for the first time in the fiscal year,
the national office must receive $1.50 1 together with a first-half card,
regardless of the time when this payment is made, This is equally true
when a member joins the chapter late in the Hadassah year and pays $2.00
to round out that year, - the chapter sends the national office $1.50 and
retains 50¢ for administration ex,,enses.
Second-half dues should be sent in only for those members who have already
paid first-half dues.
(For your convenience we will provide you upon request with a supply of
membership remittance blank forms,)
4.

The proper annual or semi-annual cards should accompany your remittance.
Use the special Business &amp; Professional ~omen's Division cards . annual,
first-half and second half cards - for members of the division. Unless
this is done, the national office will not have an accurate record of
this grouping.

5.

All names should be plainly printed on the membership ca.rd.

6.

Use full name instead of initials.
In the case of a married woman, be careful to use the
name for every renewal. To avoid confusion, we
request that you conform to the rule of using the
husband's first name. The last name of the member should
AJ..7.AYS be spelled in the same we,y.
881118

7. IMPORTANT - INDICATE IN PLACE PROVIDED iiHETHER DUES ARE FOR RENEi'IAL OR NE'II
M».IBER.

8.

If a member was formerly in Junior Hadassah, please indicate this in
the space provided for this information.

9.

Be sure to give the member's former address on the membership card.

10.

REPORT PROMPTLY ALL CHANGES OF ADDRESS, GIVING THE OLD AND NE\\' ADDRESSES.
If a member moves to another community, please send us the
name of the new city and the local address, if possible.
Thus the member will be sure to receive the NEi7SLETTER uninterruptedly, Also, the new local Hadassah chapter president
will be abl
coii
t e
o ..that-the 1H111b♦r may eonttnue,-r.rr-----=:--~4M
e n our organization.

11,

Members who pay dues for the current year are entitled to receive the
NEWSLETTER through June of the next year. Please do not request the
national office to remove from the mailing list such paid.-up members,
unless the member has specifically requested it.

12.

Courtesy members are carried on the mailing list for a period of one year
only.

��BOARD !lINUTFS
•
Jul,: 7, 1941

The secrnd board meeting held during the summer recess l':as called
to order on Monday, July the sev~nth at nine o ' clock P. M. by our
president and hostess for the evening , Mrs . Harry H. Berman .
The reading of a letter signed by Mr . Leo Rosen and surrounding
the appointment of two members 1n addition to our president to
servP. on the general committee for the building of the ne1•·
templ 0 occupied the first discussion of the ev ning . The mescames
Harriet Talbot and Harry S. Berman were unanimously elected by the
board to represent Hadassah in this instance .
Inasmuch as Mrs. Talbot was the only member of the Muskegon chapter
to attend the Lansing conference on June the sixteenth, she was
callP.d upon to give a report .
Vrs . Talbot told us that we would have four speakers during the
Y"'ar, the first of whom should come early in the season in order
to stimulate membership . I t •as suggested that the corresponding
secr.,tary write headquarters in order to obtain this spea,.er on
th" fifth , tv1elfth or ninete&gt;enth of September with the idea that
ou,.. m"'mb rship rally ,,,ould be i n the form of Friday night serf ices
at th" t~mpl . As an altPrnatiVP , it was suggested that we have
this national sp.,.aker on either the corresponding Tuesdays or
"",,dn&lt;&gt;sdays to the aformmentioned dates . It was also oecided that
the board members would act as hostesses for the party to open the
1941-194~ membership drive .
0

The national speakers available to us will be the following :
Mrs . Gasella "iarburg, Mrs Jack Goodman , Mrs . I . H. Levin and Mrs . J .
Bender .
p point stressed at the Lansing conference was the fact that Hadassah
must be instrumental in enlarging Zionist groups insofar as husbands and children are concerned , in order to stimulate Judaism;
and in instituting a local program in this connection , our president
appointed Mrs . Talbot as Zionist Study Chairman with Babbi Aaron Cohen
as Inter-relations ehairman .

It was decided to again attempt a Young Judea chapter in Muskegon
patterned after the Cub Scout organization and to place
•xr . Abe Clayman in charge with Miss Irene Damstetter and
Mr . Bernard Speivack assisting . The conference revealed that
m&lt;&gt;mbers f or this group should be taken out of the age group from
ninf' to t·»elve . f
Mrs . 'l'albot suggested , too, that the corresponding secretary
writP Miss Rose Elum, 04 Patti Street , Toledo, Ohio who is 1:ducation
Chairman in order to obtain five cent student manuals for each
board member . 'l'hese. manuals arP to be studied ; and Miss Blum is
wi]Jing to come to the. first study group session in order to introduce
us to the subjPCts of the manual .

A membership drive idea suggested at the conference was to send
gifts and visit; new brides in order to interest them in the
organi7.ation. There '"ere many unique d!ues ra · sing ideas submitted,
th&lt;&gt; best of which was Muskegon 1 s already used paid up membership
lumch.,.on.

spiritual lei.der Y-ho deserve~, ~nd undoubtedly has, the r~spect and
the cooperation of yoxr entire JeVliSh community.
The article in the paper

it 1s fair for you to :aeet gcze of the expenae. I feel that I ?mtt support

Dear Chapter President :
The National Board is very eager to express to you , and through you to the officers and men:l&gt;ership of your chapter , our ver~• sincere thiutl&lt;s and deep appreciation for the remarkable results obtained by your devoted efforts to Radassah
work during the past year, This has truly been a banner year for our worl,, lfe
in the National Offico are keenly aware of the hours of thought , energy and
service that were given by all of your womon to make these results possiblo.
Each indivi&lt;i.ual who has contributed i n ~ way to this success should have a
sense of personal satisfaction in participating thus closely in work that is
doing so much towards rescuing some of our Je1•1ish peO:&gt;le e.,d helping to rn.'.l.ke
possible the speedier upbuilding of Palestine as the Je11ish National Hof.le ,
No one can foretell at this moment w!U\t the rapidly changing conditions of the
war picture may mean for the rescue of additional thousnnds of Jews and their
migration into Palestine, Hada~sah must be prepared to give the necessary
hospitalization and other forms of medical care to those 11ho will be received
so joyfully into the country,

,

To make these services possible , we have established the post- war Reconstruction
and Rehabilitation Fund about which we have written to your ffi.'.O chairman, We
would now like to appeal to you to send to the office icmediately all surnlus
HMO funds ~ may be in your trens'!!1': fO.!:, the year 1942- :!2_. These E-iO .tuuds
which you send us ov~ and, above ~.!:!'. quota will be put into this Reconstruction
and Rehabilitation Fund, and you will be included in an Honor Roll created
specially for this purpose, It is t,1is Fund on ~!hich we will have to depend to
help us meet uhatever emergencies ma:, arise as a result of migration to Palestine
and to cope with post- war problens there. Since these are such serious obligations , 11e bespeak your usual wholehai:rted cooperation in sending us all of
your surplus Hll.O funds .
Surplus funds :for Child Welfare , Youth Aliyah and Je··iish National Fund l'lill be
applied towards the emergency quotas for those activities,
Let us hope that the coming New Year will bring peeco to the world and rescue
and healing to our fellow Jews.
C dially yours ,

To American Affairs Che.irlllan:

We are ~riting to you to clear up eome confusion l'lhich seema to have arisen
in connection with o.lr new (Be.cit the A.ttack) campaign to sell 1~r bonda and
etampa for "Tanke, Jeeps , and Guns". As you doubtleao !mow, Hadaaeah chap..
tera mve been conducting an ilr »-made. camoaign ;vhich ;;as initiated on the
occasion of the ::.econd War L&lt;18n Drive, Th.1.t cam'Daign is no., completed - all
chapters r:hich could do so have already subscribed for a bomber to be named
for the chapter,
When the Third ,iar Loan Drive was annrunced, i.e felt it the du.ty of Radasaah
to make another ai&amp;1ificant contrl. bution to our country' a y,ar effort. This
ti.me we decided to subscribe to "Tanka, Jeeps , and Guns" in order to make it
possible for every chapter , larce or small, to participate. ~e realized that
many chapters would Join their cooi::.unitiea for the Third War Loan Drive , 'but
we AAe11 trAt oven after this drive ''Ills over, it would still be possible, and
certainly desirable, to have l!adaasah Chapter3 continue the sale of bonds and
a tamps. Al though we started this cacrpaign dlen tho Third 'olu' Loan Drive 1&lt;11&amp;
launched ~c set no time limit on it and~ did not expect to complete it
during the drive, We hopo, ho·.,evor, at the Convention to have reports from
our chapters that they have joined the campaign.
Our previous comnunication on this suoj,,ct ·-as addrossed to chapter nresidents

since at this ti?:,o .c did not have a comolctc list of tho ne,i Ar.:erican Affairs
Chairmen and nc rianted tho campaign to e:;et under nay ·.·ithout delaj'. A.a Chairman of American Affairs you ·ill regard it as your duty, I am sure , to bring
this =,paign to the attention of your chapter and to let uo know aa soon as
posaible your decision ,
W1 th heartfelt good c.1ahes for eucceae in your v:ork and !or a hapoy new year ,
I am,

P, S.

¼e arc €1'-thering pictures of Hadc.osah bombers for displ~y ~t the CoDvention; if you have received your~, please send it to ua at once. We

Dear Chapter President:
Altholl{;h the year 1s still young and it is perhaps too early to estimate t:.e results of this yN,:r 1 s fund-raisin;; effort , ·;e do v1ant you
to share ,,,i th us our deep concern over the pros:.,ects of the Hadassah
Medical Organization an&lt;&gt;. Child Welfare and Vo cational Education for
this year ,
When the increased budgets for our medical work and child c are ,1hich
remain our primai·y obligations "ere presented to t&gt;-,e delegates at our
convention, there was no sign of reluctanc~ o.t ncce1)ting heavier
obligations for the year 1943- 44, \'le cannot tell you how heartened.
and strengthened we at the center were by this indication of devotion
to our ,-1ork and of the implied ability on the part of the chapters
to raise increased. quotas , 'Je felt that yeers of intensive educational
effort were paying dividends and that our leaders throughout the country
needed no arguments to convince them that our medical system would require more funds and greater effort during this period of rising costs,
great e,q&gt;ansion and preparation for what we hope ,till be a period of

great i,mmigration,
These new demands for increased funds are cominr, to us at a time when
there is money in tho country , ·.then men and women are giving generously, aroused as never before by the Jewish case and its needs , UnfortunatelY, there has as yet been no reflection of this eneros i t in monies
received in the National Office for IDIO and Child Welfare, The last
financial r eport as of today , January 5, indicates instead.
that our
1
!lldO collections are $16,868 ,58 below those of last year s at this
time , We would be derelict in our duty if 1·10 did not face the fact
that in a year in which \le have accepted quotas of $660,000 for m;o
and $160, 000 for Child Welfo.re nnd Vocational Education (which t1eans

.JUDITH PAR8ER
OR. EMANUEL CAJlORAN
MICK&amp;Y KOD)UN
DR. NOAH NARDI
JACQUELl&gt;I&amp; N'ELSON
GILDA RICHTER

I am writing to you as Hadassab's Chairman for the Youth
Commission and as Vice-Chairman of the American Zionist
Youth Commission, in connection with the YOONG JUDAEAll magazine, published by National Young Judaea.

Radassah has como to reoognize that thousands of Jewish children throughout the
United States, whether they live in towns, hamlets or cities , have a deep need to
receive a publioation which writes about them ns Je'l.s, keeps them informed of
Jewish ourrcnt affairs in this country , in Palestine and throughout the world,
and brings to them the mecsagc of Jewish creativity, past and present .
For th3 Hadsssah mother nnd equally for any Jowish mother who wants to keep her
children in touch with Jewish lifo, and to supplement the many non-Jewish publioations for young people, 1Thioh though fine and worthwhile, do not answer their
special Jewish need, the YOU11G JUDABAN magazine will serve this purpoee.
Edited by Miss Deborah Pessin, author of "Giants on Earth•, and Dr. Aharon Kessler,
Executivo Director of Young Judaea, it is of high educational quality, and its
language and style are exoollent for children. It neither talks down to the
children nor propagandizes, but tells its message honestly a.~d artistioally. It
is enthusiastioally received by the ohildr~n themselves .
Hadassab, as you kno~, is greatly interested in furthering the Jewish and Zionist
education of the boys and girls in the United States, both from Had.assa.h and nonHadassah homes . We are therefor.-. cagor to have as mc.ny children as possiblo receive
the YOUNG JUDAEAll magazine , as an impor,ant part of their Jewish eduoat1on .
~e.y I th.rc:f'oro request that you ask either your Youth Commission chairman or youth

aoti,,1 ties chairman or tho Senior-Junior chairman of your chapter to conduct a campaign for the YOUNG JUDAEAN magazine in your community and get at least ten subscriptions.
The subscription re.to is $1 . per year. Through such a subsoription many a Jewish
ohild may become so inspired by an article, a story, or a oartoon, that he may be
influenoed to find his place among the Jewish people .
Uay I suggest that the magazine would make an eT.oellent birthday or holiday gift .
With Hadassah greetings,
...._, _Si~o~ rely, ~
