Isadore M. Tretiak, prominent Omaha businessman, communal and civic leader, has accepted the post of General Chairman of the 19G3 Jewish Philanthro-

1. M. Tretiak pies Campaign, Arthur H. Goldstein, Jewish Federation President announced this week. Brings Valuable Experience "Isadore Tretiak brings to the campaign valuable experience, dynamic leadership, and a sincere devotion to our Jewish community. He ha^ a clear understanding of the needs in Omaha, the requirements of the national agencies which we support through the Campaign, and the vital program of saving Jewish refugees and settling them in Israel and elsewhere. I am confident that the li)G3 Campaign wil benefit greatly from his direction and consecration and will be a success," Mr. Goldstein said, in making the announcement. "Obligation to Help" In accepting the appointment as Chairman of the Campaign, Mr. Tretiak stated: "Despite my many heavy commitments, I have accepted the assignment to lead the All-In-One Philanthropies Campaign out of a sense of deep obligation and duty to help save Jews, to help maintain American Jewish institutions, and to raise the necessary funds for our own Omaha Jewish agencies." Exodus of Refugees "Our campaign is communitywide, and 1 hope that Omaha Jewry will give us the "manpower and woman-power" to join me in this campaign. The exodus of refugees from 'closed

countries' has added to our responsibility, and will require additional efforts and funds. "Unfortunately, many of the dramatic and exact details of where Jews escape from cannot be revealed by ordinary publicity channels. This can he related only by word of mouth from person to person, so that the escape routes of the refugees will not be placed in jeopardy. Ask Community to Respond "I hope, therefore, that the community will respond in this urgent test and challenge," Mr. Tretiak, emphasized. Mr. Tretiak, a member of the Jewish Federation Board, was the 13G2 Initial Gifts Chairman. He has served as president of the Highland Town and Country Club, and presently, is a member of its board. He is a past president of American Legicn Post No. 102, and has been active in many community affairs and has participated in a number of fund-raising projects. He is the owner of the Tretiak's Omaha Jobbing Company and serves on the Beth El Synagogue board. Mr. Tretiak, also, is a member of the Omaha Transit Co. board.

$2,800,000 Credit The B.B.Y.O. groups, AZA and BBG chapters, are making great advances in completing their respective programs. Last month, the Omaha Jewish Youth Council held its annual Stage Nite. The performance was one of the best in many years. The member chapters all put on terrific skits . . . our teenagers have talents. The new AZA Chapter, Chaim Weizmann, is going to hold a "Mom and Pop" dance in May of this year. This is something new in this area and the evening promises to be very enjoyable.

Urges Repayment of Its Indemnification Claim in Oermany The International Council of B'nai B'rith "urgently appealed" to the West German Government recently for full repayment of an indeminfication claim for B'nai B'rith properties in Germany that were confiscated by the Nazis in 1938. Half of a settlement, involving a total of 10,000,000 Deutschemerks, $2,500,000 was paid by West Gernmny to B'nai B'rith in May, 1959. A resolution adopted at the conclusion of a two-day meeting of the Council noted that the final date for payment specified in the a g r e e m e n t -was March 31, 1962. Indemnification funds are being allocated by B'nai B'rith to assist in the restoration of the Jewish community programs and institutions for surviving members of the B'nai B'rith ..movement' in prewar Germany who are now scattered throughout the world. The Council re-elected Label A. Katz, B'nai B'rith national president, as chairman,

last month. The speaker originally scheduled became ill on the Saturday preceding the meeting; a substitute program was arranged and it, too, had to cancel out on the day before the meeting, due to illness. As late as mid-morning on the day of the meeting no

Oilman program was set . . . until a brainstorm, in answer to tho tornadoes in the South and tho blizzards in the North, hit Chairman Sobrin. Why not an ADL meeting? The ADL, originally scheduled a3 the program for the March meeting, was the thought. Ted Sennett, ADL head in this area, was contacted and asked if he'd reschedule his program on such short notice. Like the true soldier and ardent Ben Brith that lie is, he came through. He and Dick Fellman had put on an ADL program in Lincoln the night before, It had been very well received. So, with only a few hours to get ready, the ADL arranged for some slides to be shown that would depict scenes from the 50th Anniversary ADL celebration in Washington. Ted was never .better . . , and Dick was outstanding. In the estimation of many, this was tho most i n t e r e s ting and best-received program in the last several years. The enthusiastic response from the audience overwhelmed our orators. This program is still the topic of conversation; the most repeated remark being, "It's too bad that a thousand members weren't present." How lucky can the Lodge get . . .Ted and Dick are returning for a repeat performance . . . Wednesday evening, March 27th at 8 p.m. For early arrivals there will be cocktails starting at 6:30; dinner at 7 with tho meeting to follow. It all happens in the Corral Room at the Diplomat Hbtel . . . and wives and guests are invited.

Good, Welfare The Henry Monsky Lodge extends condolences to the family of Mr. Ben Noodell. We wish a speedy recovery to: Mr. Sam Epstein, Mr. Jack S. Frileck, Ben Minkin, Horaca Rosenberg and Eli J.
