Louis Oungre, General Manager of the Jewish Colonization Association, declared: “Louis Marshall is one of those remarkable personages of American Jewry who has awakened American Jews to a sense of responsibility toward their unfortunate coreligionists in Eastern Europe. I am joining wholeheartedly on behalf of the Ica in the celebration of Mr. Marshall’s seventieth birthday. I am particularly appreciative of Mr. Marshall’s devotion to Jewish matters. I lay particular emphasis on Mr. Marshall’s active part in the work of aiding the Jewish emigrants and refugees. May he be spared for many more years and continue to work for the benefit of Judaism.”
