FIRST GUN FIRED IN JEWRY DRIVE B’nai B’rith and Temple Brotherhood Hear Appeal in $25,000 Campaign. ‘The opening gun was fired in the wider scope campaign of the B'nai B'rith at the Jewish Community Center last night. The occasion was the joint meeting of the Argo Lodge of the B'nai B'rith and the Brotherhood of the Eighth Street ‘Temple. Prominent members of both organizations appealed for the support of Washington Jewry in the drive for $25,000, the District's quota in the $2,000,000 appeal of the Grand Lodge. The principal speaker was Judge Jo- seph L. Kun of the Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia. Others who ad- dressed the joint session were Maj. Julius I, Peyser, former member of the School Board, who acted as chairman of the meeting; Joseph A. Wilner, presi- dent of District Grand Lodge, No. 5, embracing the Middle Atlantic States, and Allen V. de Ford, president of the Brotherhood. This was the second annual joint meeting of the two organizations, the B'nai Brrith acting as hosts this year. Judge Kun's topic was “What Can We Do to Help American Jewry Sur- vive?” Speaking of the need for com- batting racial indifference and assimi- lation, he said: “If we Jews have no special contri- bution to make to life, there is no rea- son for our separate existence. We know, however, or ought to know, that Judaism has been a definite contribu- tion to civilization and it would be nothing short of the most ignominious disloyaity to the sainted memories of our fathers to surrender our tradl- tional duty.” Judge Kun then traced the growth of the Hillel Foundations from the establishment of the first one at the University of Illinois in 1923. “Foundations have since been estab- lished at the Universities of Wisconsin, Michigan, California and Ohio State,” he said. “Negotiations are now in prog- ress for establishing foundations at Cornell, West Virginia and Pennsylvania State College. “It is one of the great mocketies of human experience that some things which have been deserved through great sacrifice, much suffering and adversity are permitted to be dissi- pated through indulgence and indiffer- ence.” In conclusion, Judge Kun pointed out that the full benefit of the Hillel work cannot be realized until foundations have been established in 100 or more of the universities. A musical program of a .diverse nature followed the - speeches of the evenlt:g. Refreshments were served the guests. B COMPENSATION SOUGHT. Partial Dependency Claimed by Mother of J. D. Layton.
