WHAT'S THE ANSWER?....
Ttie "Draft Davls-Byrd Com¬ mittee" (Cliarl*3 Da'vis for Pres¬ ident and Harry Clifton Byrd for Vice-President in 1948) Is circularizing the names in tlie Jewish Who's who. .We- receiv¬ ed a circular which glorifies Davis, "Honorary Grand Sachem of the Six Nations" and Byrd, President of the University of Maryland, a% a "truly national ticket"..But why is thla com¬ mittee appealing to us with these words: "We hope that 1,000 Jews in New York State will become Trustees and thus elect the Director to represent the great State ot New York".. We are puzzled...Trustees of what?..And who is the "Direc¬ tor"? . Or can it be that we are being given the first crack at donating $10.00 for the privilege ot "Enrolling as a Trustee".. What is it all about?..Do you know the answer?

The next quarterly meeting of the Jewish Community Coun¬ cil will take place on Thursday, October 24 th, 8 P. M., at the Schonthal Center, it was an¬ nounced this week by Justin L. Sillman, president.
This 'Will be the first meeting of the new administration, and all new delegates representing their respective Jewish Organ- Uations in the community have been notified to attend.
The annual reports of various Committees- will be given and tlje election ot officers and mem¬ bers of the Executive Commit¬ tee Win also take place.
"This Is a significant moment In the history of our commun- ty," toastmaster Herb Llnick stated in his opening remarks to more than 50 persons gather¬ ed at the Seneca Hotel last Tuesday evening for the dinner- meeting that launched a drive to raise a minimum of $100,000 for the Columbus Hebrew School Building Fund.
With foyr lots already pur¬ chased on E. Livingston between Fairwood and Bulen Avenues, and a complete set of plans of the proposed strueture finished, the meeting was an ultimate springboard for the drive that has become an actuality after two years of preparation and delay.
Continuing his message, Mr. Llnick said that the greatest fu¬ ture happiness of today's Jew¬ ish children will come trom their being Jews; their realization of the fellowship and understand¬ ing that goes with being Jews. "Now is the time," he said, "tn build a stronger sense of Jewish- ness locally so that there will be a greater Jewlshness nation¬ ally." •
Others who spoke on behalf ot the campaign were Harry Beckman, Herman Luekoff, Sol Shenk, Sam Melzllsh, WUUam Oivets, Arthur Goldberg, Dr. B. W. Abramson, and Daniel Harrison,  principal ot the He¬
brew  School.
"Figuratively speaking, we are In danger of losing our children," said Mr. Harrison, "and this danger can be elimi¬ nated only it we provide ade¬ quate facilities for Jewish train¬ ing NOW, regardless of high, costs of |abor and materials. No price," he continued emphatical¬ ly, "is too high to regain our children fbr.ourselves!"
He pointed out that it was the aim and hope of the Board of Directors, on this eve ot Suc¬ coth, to be able to have the Community Project completed by Succotji of 1947.
Announcement was made that four contributions to the fund, made that evening, already to¬ talled $4,000.
Campaign solicitors were ask¬ ed to work closely -with their in¬ dividual co-chairmen, and were told that the first report on the progress of the. drive will be due at a luncheon-meeting October 22,
