(Jewish Daily Bulletin)

Less than a day’s campaigning for the United Jewish Appeal which opened in Detroit last night netted close to $400,000.

The United Jewish Appeal in Detroit is a joint drive for the United Hebrew schools of Detroit, whose share is $180,000 and the United Jewish Campaign. The quota of the joint drive is $600,000.

In recognition of the service rendered the Jewish community by the “Jewish Advocate,” Phi Alpha, a national college fraternity, has extended honorary membership to Joseph G. Brin, LL.M., Managing Editor of that publication. Mr. Brin was formally welcomed into the fraternity through Pi chapter of Boston University, of which he is an alumnus, at a banquet held in the Bellevue Hotel. Boston.
