OUR NEW BUILDING
In response to many inquires re-
garding the status of our new home
at Tierwester and Southmore, our
Building Committee, headed by Joe
Weingarten, wishes to make the
following statements:
1. We are at present considering
various bids offered by contractors,
and we intend to start building as
soon as it is determined which bid
to accept. In any case, it will be
very soon.
2. We are definitely resolved not
to assume the heavy burden of any
mortgage on our new building un-
less it is for a short term and guar-
anteed by pledges made to the
Building Fund. We intend, there-
fore, to build only as much of the
new Beth Yeshurun as we have
money for, and, as more funds
come in, we shall build more of it.
3. We do not intend to compro-
mise, in any way, on the quality
of the structure we shall erect. We
are determined to make it as beau-
tiful and as inspiring as the skill
of the architect and the ability of
the builders can make it. We would
rather build less of it, for the time
being, but have it come up to the
highest standards of Jewish relig-
ious architecture and building skill,
than compromise with quality.
4. We, therefore, urge the mem-
bers and friends of Beth Yeshurun
who have not as yet made any con-
tribution to the Building Fund to
do so immediately, and make their
contributions as generous as pos-
sible so as to expedite the build-
ing of our structure. We also urge
those, who have already made
pledges, to pay as much of their
pledge as possible so that we might
have ready cash to proceed with
the project.

We extend our deepest sympa-
thy, in their sad bereavement, to
the families of—
SAM SILVER
BERNARD KOFLER
NATHAN WINOGRAD
Who gave his life for the freedom
of humanity.
May the bereaved families take
consolation in the memory of the
ones they loved, and find the
courage and faith to go forward
into the years.
RABBI MALEV TO BROADCAST
ON "FAITH OF OUR FATHERS"
By invitation of the Protestant
Ministerial Association, Rabbi Ma-
lev will broadcast on the “Faith of
our Fathers” program during the
week of Monday, May 10th.
These programs take place every
day except Wednesday, from 9:30
to 9:45 a. m., over Station KLEE,
and Rabbi Malev’s theme will be,
“T h e Eternal Commandments.”
There will also be a program of
traditional Jewish music in con-
nection with each of these broad-
casts. You are urged to tune in, and
invite your friends, Jewish and non-
Jewish, to do so as well.
Among Rabbi Malev’s
broadcasts in addition to the two
regularly scheduled for Beth Yesh-
urun on Sunday morning and af-
ternoon, were the ones sponsored
by the Houston Zionist Council on
the partition of Palestine; and also
the one sponsored by the Jewish
Community Couhcil on the United
Jewish Campaign.
Rabbi Malev also spoke recent-
ly at the United Jewish Campaign
dinner at Texas City at which last
year’s record contribution was
tripled by the thirty families liv-
ing there. He also spoke at the re-
cent joint meeting of the Rice Me-
norah, of which he is the sponsor,
and of the Hillel Foundation, at the
meeting of the Chirho Society of
the First Christian Church, and at
the Mother’s Day Program of the
Women’s Mizrachi.
