“I commend the Jews to you as a race to whom we are deeply indebted”, Park Meek, of Meek and Wearstier, national advertising agency, told the Advertising club here today.
“The history of the Jews is the history of as great a people as ever lived,” he added.
Meek, though not a Jew himself, used as his topic, “From Solomon to Judas Maccabeus,” and reviewed the life and achievements of the Jewish people.
