Chronicle
Our 35th-Year Experiment
Beginning with our issue of Oct. 5, the Jew¬ ish Chronicle'will embdrk upon an racpansion pi:o- gram which will test the loyalty and cooperative spirit of our readers and advertisers. In spite of increased cost of paper and labor, the new Chronicle will go to six columns, instead of the present five, and 17 V& inches column length, from the now 15^ inches. Better news coverage on both tbe local and national scene as well as many interesting features will be the result of the en¬ larged size Chronicle.
As we approach our 35th year of unin¬ terrupted publication in Columbus, we can loolc bacli with a great deal of satisfaction on the im-~^ portant role the Ohio Jewish Chronicle has played in the Jewish community's growth and progress. Thirty-five years is a generation. We have seen Columbus grow from small beginnings until to¬ day it stands as one of the most outstanding and progressive cities in the United States.
We are proud to have contributed our bit towards this development of Jewish life here. Our cooperation with some 35 Jewish organi¬ zations as well as many important non-Jewish groups in Columbus year after year has produced outstanding results in Jewish achievement and developing Jewish dignity and honor. During World War II, the Chronicle served some 800 of our men and women in service; sending each an individual copy wherever he or she was sta¬ tioned, a regular feature of which were hundreds of letters from servicemen which appeared regu¬ larly in our columns.
To make this enlarged Chronicle possible, we are appealing to the public spirited Jewish busi¬ nessmen of our community who can help us thru regular advertising space or using, the facilities of our commercial printing plant, a 100% Union shop, which can produce everything from a call¬ ing card to a big magazine or newspaper. It is one concrete way of showing your appreciation for the Chronicle's 34 years service 'to our com¬ munity.
Realizing that the record of the past is useful only, as a foundation for the future, the Chronicle looks forward with confidence to the years ahead —ready to do its part h) supporting all that is good and constructive in Columbus Jewish life. We consider it a duty and a privilege to serve, and we are indeed grateful to our many friends, readers and advertisers who appreciate our en¬ deavours. \
