Dear Mr.. Moscovitz:
T want to express to you my
very deep appreciation for the re-
leases you carried in connection
with our Regional Summer Semi
mar held in Osceola Lake Inn,
Hendersonville, N. c.
Since you and Mrs. Moscovitz
were there, you know that this
was an outstandingly successful
experiment, and will definitely be
repeated again and again. The
high level of discussions and the
lectures by DR.. Horace M. Kallen
and DR.. Joseph Dunner, were the
kind of stimulating experiences
which gave the participants the
feeling of having sat at the feet of
great thinkers in Jewish life in
America If iS thn sincere hone Of
the entire Southeast Zionist Re-
gion that this project will be
emulated in the rest of the coun-
try and join us in the Return of
the Remnant"
With sincere thanks,

Dear Mr.. Segal:
Your column in the June 18th
issue of The Southern Jewish
Weekly, recalled to mind an event
which may be appropo of COM
ment on the, plight of the Jewish
maiden and cher Jim
Will you bear with me, while 1
relate as follows:
Harry was of the Jewish faith,
the son of a pious orthodox Cha
IAN. Harry was a black-face CO.
median whose father frowned on
his chosen profession. The pater-
nal objection was passive only to
the extent that Harry was no
longer welcome sojourner in the
parental abode. Family ties were
not severed, rather they were
extremely strained. So Harry took
to the road to make his mark and
struggled his way to the top of
his profession.
Lillian was reared as Catholic.
She was beauteous, both of char
acter and externally. She was an
artists model; her services were
in great demand because of her
extreme facial beauty and sin
cerity.
In 1909 Harry and Lillian spoke
the marriage vows before JUS
tice of the Peace. No Rabbi or
Catholic prelate would consent to
unite them as man and wife. So
spiritually they were cast adrift as
was the man without country"
But they were. devoted to each
other and 1t seemed as though
their unity as man and wife dedi-
Gated them each to the other.
They travelled through this vale of
tears, sans family ties, being un-
recognized by their immediate
families. They were. disowned in
spirit, if not in fact.
Harry had a vaudeville engage
ment in a midwestern city, a city
in which an uncle of his officiated
as Rabbi of additionally Or
thodox congregation. Through the
grapevine it became known to
Harry and his uncle that they
were so near to each other, at

The split between the Lipsky group and the
present administration of the Zionist Organi-
cation of America may eventually lead to the
formation of new Zionist party in the Uni
ted States :. The Lipsky group, which terms
itself the "Liberals,' is in it's political ap-
proach, closer to the Progressive Party in
Israel than to the General Zionist Party :.
It is. therefore. no wonder that it opposes so
