R. E. Gutstadt Delivers Most
Inspiring Address Before
Local B'nai B'rith
New Members Aro Enrolled by Cam-
paifj^n   Committee   Headed   by
I. W. Garek
Thrilled by the masterful flow of ex¬ pression, by the oratorical power, and by the sincere convention of the speaker, Richard E. Gutstadt, close to 200 mem¬ bers and guests of-Zion Lodge No. 62, of the B'nai B'rith, were inspired last Monday evening at a banquet held at the . East Broad Street Temple.
Richard E. Gutstadt, national chairman of the B'nai B'rith ineinbership commit¬ tee, was the honor speaker lo open the mcmhcTship drive of Zion T-odge, under the chairmanship of Isadore Garek. This drive is jiart of the 90th anniversary . celebration of B'nai B'rith throughout.^the U'liited States. Similar campaigns arc being held in all B'nai B'rith lodges un¬ der tbe leadership qf Joseph Cohen,-and vice president of District No. 2, who is district chairman of this campaign.
Past presideiits of Zion Lodge were al! .'ntroduccd to the audicnqe at the banquet Monday night. Harry , Schwartz, presi¬ dent, acted as chairman and introduced Edwin J. Schanfarber as the mastei". of ceremonies. Isador Garek, director of Zi:;ii Lodge membership campaign, intro¬ duced the speaker, Riclmrd E. Gutstadt, announcing him as one of B'nai B'rith's greatest orators and most sincere workers.
The speaker reviewed the situation in German;^ and .indic;\tcd that ^vep in Ainerica there, are forces carrying on a malicious false propaganda in a weekly paper to malign the Jews and create an aiiti-semitic spirit. . He mentioned that remnants of the old Kii Klux Klan were bein;^ drawn into this new group calling themselves "silver shirts."
Urging the forces of American Jewry to strengthep their solidarity and unity by allying, themselves as B'nai B'rith members, the speaker extolled the tunc- , tion of B'nai B'rith and what construc¬ tive force it has played for many years in the anti-dcfafiiation program. Pages could be written of numerous instances where false impressions of Jewish life had been corrected. Mr. Gutstadt men¬ tioned that more than 2G0 cities have eliminated the study of "Merchant of Venice" from high school study. 'Cer¬ tain objectionable poems have also been removed from college study. He re¬ viewed the wrtrk of Hillel Foundation, philanthropy program, and the immigra-. tion activities of B'nai B'rith for the past-number of years. ¦ At the conclusion of the address, which was commented on by Edwin J. Schan¬ farber, as one of the best he ever heard, the audience arose and applauded tre¬ mendously for several minutes, highly elated and overcome with enthusiasm for B'nai B'nth.
.^bout 30 candidates were signed for the next initiation class to he held the latter part of April.
