Wodehouse is produced in London. "Americans are an uncultured, materialistic people;" yet nowhere is culture pursued so-avidly as in every American city where at Women's Clubs, forums, leagues of every kind, art museums, libraries, every .housewife and her daughter seeks to amass in" the shortest time the whole of universal knowledge, and materialism constantly quarrels in the land with the forceful, evangelical idealism of a Puritan which has become as native to the soil as the Thanksgiving turkey.

New Eternal uestion By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY Here is an exclusive article by George E. Sokolskyi outstandinff authority on the -Far. East and: eminent man of tetters, whose book, "We Jews," will be published this'winter bu Doubleday, Doran. He is the author of "The Tinderbox of Asia," a standard work on the political situation in *Ae Far East. In this brilliant article Mr. Sokolsky asks the eternal questions about the Jewish people in a novel way.—THE EDITOR..

Three thousand '.years'.ago, my ancestors, the Jews, then a tribal people out of the House of Bondage in Egypt, out of the desertj-emerging to the crescent of fertility, announced that they were the chosen people of God. Nobody believed them. Their neighbors resented their sense of superiority^ That resentment, increasing through Hie ages, multiplied a millionfold by the circumstance of history, comes down to our day in the form of anti-Semitism, a reversal" of the role, for the anti-Semite holds his head high and refers to the Jew as a secondary race. What are these people, the Jews, that in every country become a problem and an issue? From Caesar to Hitler, they have aroused bitter antagonisms and yet have helped to build empires and to weld together the world and peoples and states by their travels and wanderings and their Commerce and trade. Are they a race, a religion, a nation? Are they in any respect homogeneous? Do they really have a comMon bond that holds them together and sets them apart? Is it true that they are clannish, more clannish than «ny other people? Can you pick out a Jew among people or does he mold into his environment and become, in the end, as other people are? "They say . . ." Who says? Who is it that has blazoned upon the memory of man these tales of Jewish life, these distinctive features of Jewish living that frightens the ignorant and discourages the literate from recognizing the Jew as just a man, as a ipan whose ancestors discovered monotheism when all men worshipped sticks and stones and the sculptured mud that stood as gods? "They say Who says? It is the Jew himself who frightened by the antagonism of those who feared their religious virility set them apart to be hated. It is the Jew, who carelessly wove a tradition of aloofness, of distinction, of unsociability which alone saved him from absorption. But absorption was never his fear, for that in itself might be pleasant enough, it might smooth the path to wealth and glory and ease. The fear lay in this, that absorption, assimilation, association might deprive him of that light which alone beckoned him through the ages, the worship of one God, unassociated, unassisted, uncomplicated by minor and major gods, a monotheism which Abraham gave him in the desert, which Moses confirmed on the mountain, which David arid Solomon worshipped—a God that promised peace on earth—not in heaven, but on earth. This alone, and sufficiently, gave to the Jew vitality and apparently an everlasting existence and a capacity for suffering and privation, and a faith in ultimate justice. But it also made him aloof. And no one likes the man who is aloof.

stratification, distinguishes between Jew and Christian,- as in some effete European countries, they still separate nobleman from commoner; as in the older dispension, they set insurmountable barriers between man and woman. All know in this scientific era that biologically there can be no basis for such marked differentiation. It would be impossible, and not even a Nazi has attempted it, to work out a psychology which would prove that the mind, the neurons, the. glands, the hormones of Jews function in such a manner that it would be possible by instruments to measure the differences between a Jewand an-Irishmanv No one has yet been able to prove that if a medical student cut up a "stiff," he would find anything in a Jew that would prove he is a distinct species ?

She said: 'Oh, nothing!' When he asked again, she said, *He is calling bad word.' One day when he again leard the word, he wanted to know hat it meant and asked his mother: 'What does it mean?'

meet, on any basis of equality, that nurse's son. The child sees no difference between herself and the nurse; the adult had heard tell that there is a difference. This phenomenon is understandable when one realizes that it is more usual for the human mind to accept than to think, to repeat than to originate, to imitate than to strike an original path. "All Cantonese are gamblers," they used to say in China, but when in Canton one found millions of human beings, some gamblers, some misers, some just ordinary folks.

What makes the child so fearful of words? "They say . . .". He has listened to the conversation of adults; he has heard other children speak. Jew, wop, dago, sheeny, nigger—a racial and nationalistic category fills i i s mind with the very general assumption that everybody else is a bastard and that he alone is lily white. I was mce discussing a party with a Jewish girl from the South. I told of a negro poet whom I had met at this party and had dined with us. She shivered. What! Eat at the same table with a negro! Yet, had her ancestors remained in Germany, she would today be classified as belonging to a secondary race, and no blonde gentleman would be seen in her company. My own little son found himself in an intellectual confusion arising from the circumstance of his environment and education.

The acceptance of generalization is possible, however, only when it seems reasonable. And to the human race, it has always appeared reasonable that the stranger is different, is foreign in his ways and manners, and is suspect. The old adage, "Birds of a feather flock together," has been translated into the sociological axiom of "community of kind." The savage who flattens his baby's skull or elongates his maiden's lip, assumes that everyone who does not pursue this tradition is different and suspect. No one can reach God who does not speak God's own language which is as different in every island of the Pacific as it is in every country of Europe, Asia~ and-Africa. The other person- is always wrong, because they are different from hiin. The American com-

plains of the superiority of the British, but the British resent the American assumption that this is '.'God's Own Country." Lord Beaverbrook and Mr. Hearst agree fully that each is a citizen of the only country that has a monopoly of human perfection. It remains, in spite of all the efforts of philosophers and pacifists, and all the inventions which have made the world small and have eliminated time, that nationalism grows more intense, that racial differences are being emphasized, and that aliens and foreigners suffer everywhere more than at any time since the French Revolution ended political medievalism in Europe. Whenever, among any people, community of kind is emphasized, upon the Jew falls £he onus of proving that he belongs to the right kind. This is no recent phenomenon. During every period in Jewish history, in Babylon where the Talmud was written, in Spain during the Inquisition, in Europe during the Middle Ages where every prince and duke and bishop enriched his treasury by alternately giving Jews privileges and then robbing them, in Russia and Poland in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, in Germany today, the Jew has had to be ready to announce publicly whether-he-was-of their-kind or of his own kind. He has been allowed no alternatives. Just as in the Germany of

Hitler so in the Spain of Torquemada, he has been ordered to stand publicly and declare that he was different from other men. Whether he became a Marrono in Spain, that is a "swine," or a secondary race in Germany, he was not permitted to remain both a Jew and a Spaniard or a Jew and a German. He hid to be one thing or the other. Nay, in Germany, he is not even given, the •choice. Then when he becomes introvertish, he is accused of being clannish, because he does not associate freely with other people who reject him when he tries to associate with them. The history of the quality of dannishness among the Jews is fascinating because, left with no choice, he accepted it for centuries as the only protective against destruction, but when given a choice, he seeks to cast it off and is termed aggressive and all-pervasive. * * * (Copyright, 1934, by Seven Arts Feature Syndicate.)

UKRAINIAN JEWISH RELIEF GROUP TO BEGIN LIQUIDATION Moscow (JTA). — The Ukrainian Jewish relief organization, "Do Pomoga," which has done constructive relief work in the Ukraine for the last ten years, will be liquidated. The organization devoted itself to helping tens of thousands of declassed Jews, deprived of a living when their property and businesses were confiscated, to become qualified workers. Some of the factories managed by the organization will be turned over to the Ozet, Russian-Jewish colonization organization, for the training of Jewish workers for settlement in BiroBidjan. "Do Pomoga," which is supported by the Agrojoint and the Ort, American Jewish relief organizations, maintains artisan shops and small factories in 300 Ukrainian cities and villages and employs thousands of declassed Jews. The announcement on the liquidation of the organization gave assurances that neither the shops nor the employees of the organization will b« affected by the liquidation.

The five biggest Jewish news stories of 5694 include but one positive story, the Biro-Bidjan declaration. The others deal with violence and persecution and efforts to prevent it or succor its victims. And that, it must be admitted, was the picture presented by Jewish life in 5694—many lowering and menacing shadows and but few glimpses of hopeful sunlight.

Vladimir Jabotinsky is not popular with the Arabs of Palestine, whom he has described as "having nothing in common" with the Jews, because of his insistence on maximum Zionism. Jabotinsky organized the Jewish Legion which fought under General AHenby during the World War.

The Jewish boycott league, which he headed, was reorganized into a non-sectarian group with Gentiles of the prominence of James W. Gerard at its helm. As Mr. Untermyer's scathing language in the morning papers began to shake the average Jew out of his breakfast stupor, the leaders were compelled to declare their stand on the boycott. Some were timid, repeating over and over again that the boycott was "a dangerous weapon"; others, no longer able to hold a middle of the road position, fell in line with Untermyer and reinforced his efforts to arouse the enlightened American citizenry to the full significance of the Hitler menace MEYER F.

Some things are as inevitable as fate. Summarizing the year's history, its high and low points, its tragic and blessed events, if any, its dominating personalities, has become as integral a part of the ritual of the Rosh Hashonah holiday as the very prayers themselves. Much of the chronological and analytical material has a justifiable raison d'etre. But in the selection of the "outstanding," most distinguished" men of the year, there has been a painful overproduction. The Anglo-Jewish press gets its full share of "ten bests," "fifty distinguished this-and-thats"; more, perhaps, than there are prominent or near-prominent figures to go around. Imagine the ludicrous spectacle of the same minyan of American Jewish leaders (they are a regrettably small group) being roughly hauled out to dance to the tune of the many and often unnecessary "review" parades merely because they have had the misfortune of establishing themselves as "big names." Let not the reader mistake this as the brazen disrespect of an upstart or the irreverent housebreaking of an iconoclast. Both disrespect and iconoclasm have been well crucified on Hitler's swastika. This is not the attempt of an enfant terrible to bedevil our acknowledged American Jewish leadership with backstairs gossip about its feet of clay. In any review of the year's march of Jewish events there are certain irreducible numbers without whom it cannot be complete. We have no intention of throwing a shroud of obscurity about them. And yet it would not be particularly illuminating or informative to repeat the names of these outstand-

Let the man who is awarded a scallion for his skullduggery beware of the Winchell curse. For when Mrs. Winchell's boy trains his guns on a public enemy, there's no stopping him until that enemy has been wiped out. Sandwiched in between his ga-ga gossip about divorces, affairs of the heart, marriages, births, and choice morsels of scandal about the looney luminaries of the megalopolis, the king of gossip has let fly a most withering barrage of derision and satire that has made the faces of many Nazi sympathizers a deep crimson. Winchell is thorough, fanatical, when he feels he has a cause celebre. For weeks, for months his column had without fail caricatured the homosexual habits of Nazis in high command. The effect on the American masses was amazing. These men and women, who were completely befuddled by the conflicting dispatches from Berlin and by the countless editorials and articles on Hitlerism (pro and con), suddenly saw its ridiculous features, its disgraceful mannerisms in WinchelPs barbs and turned against it as some- j

Budapest (JTA). — Three ancient, time-worn stone monuments have recently been discovered in central Hungary which throw new light on the antiquity of Jewish settlements there, as all three date from the third century of the present era. According to Austrian and Hungarian scholars who have deciphered the inscriptions, it would appear that Jews were established in Hungary at least five hundred years prior to the coming of the Hungarians in the ninth century. All three monuments are now in the Hungarian-Jewish land museum in Budapest. The oldest dates from the beginning of the third century. It was discovered on the estate of the Hungarian Archbishop Seredi and is evidently a tombstone. It bears the name of the deceased "Judatus" and his wife, and above the inscription, a seven branched candlestick or Menora is engraved. This, it is agreed by archaeologists, was extensively used as a Jewish symbol by the Jews of that period. The second monument, although discovered some years ago near Budapest was only recently deciphered by Prof. Krauss of Vienna. The inscription consists of two Menora candlesticks, the names of the deceased, and the words "Heis Theos" in Roman characters. Prof. Krauss interprets the two mysterious words as the Greek translation of the Hebrew words "Adonoi Echad" (God is "only one) written in Roman letters. The third monument is inscribed in Latin, in praise of the Roman Emperor Severus, who ruled from 222 to 235 of the present era. It is signed "Spondilla, Prefect of the Station and of the Synagogue of Jews." From the text Dr. Krauss infers that "Spondilla" was the name of the Jewish chief of a Roman outpost consisting of Jewish soldiers of Syria and that evidently a Jewish settlement must also have existed in this military community in the Roman frontier of those days.

thing not to be taken seriously, something far beneath them. And more. Wincheli undermined attempts to plant Nazism here by publishing the names of Hitler agents in this country and exposing them before they had an opportunity to sink roots. The Nazi-busting activities of Walter Winchell, daddy of the Broadway gossips, gave his colleagues and imitators a grand idea. They, too, joined the ridicule campaign against the Nazis, foreign or imported. In less time than it takes Mr. Winchell to say "Broadway" the entire country was re-echoing with laughter at the inanities and perversities of the Nazi regime. For all this Mr. Winchell seeks no reward. The knowledge that he can be of service in a critical hour repays him a thousandfold. American Jewry cannot pass over this notable achievement without pausing long enough to say: An orchid to you, Mr. Poles Suppress Anti-Semitic Winchell. Paper Warsaw. — Polish government offiMEYER W.

This shows how essential it is to provide Jewish pupils with a Jewish education, which will give them the feeling that they are racially equal to any others, that they belong to a great historically significant, creative community, which other communities regard with respect and honor." The paper also points out that this Jewish work could be promoted by acting on the order of the Reich minister under which Jewish pupils are released from school at request. The great task, the paper concludes, must be taken up immediately by the Reich Committee of Jewish Youth Organizations, for the new school year will be opening shortly.

"The Merchant of Venice" Makes Hitlers—Anspache By Vivian Cohen New York (JTA)—"Why make little Hitlers out of school children?" Dr. Louis K. Anspacher, founder of the Drama League and fellow of the League for Political Education, stated emphatically. "For years I have tried to get the 'Merchant of Venice' out of the hands of the public schools. And I wish everyone would help me. There is no excuse for patterning children's minds to a religious prejudice." Thus spoke a leader of the theatre whose bible is, in the orthodox tradition, Shakespeare. The statement is not heresy for him. He contends that "The Merchant of Venice" is an inferior play. It contains one role—but one that has presented enough difficulty even in the hands of the great. When Mansfield or Warfield undertook to play Shylock, there had to be much changing of the script, and elision of the most glaring brutalities.

Jewish Love By STANLEY BERO In this article Mr. Bero, who for Hears wa,3 active in the work of the Baron de Hirsch Fund and who headed the Joint Distribution Committee's overseas relief campaign during the world war and the early post-war period, gives the impressions gathered by a trained sociologist on a tour of inspection of the Jewish farms in northern New Jersey,-—THE EDITOR. Some forty years ago, in the ancient nineties, as a boy, I helped in the making out of applications for farmers' loans at the office of the Baron de Hirsch Fund. The number of chickens and cows, the likely number of eggs and the quality of milk, apart from the size of the family, ages of children and the general morale of the applicant were factors in the recommendation for the amount asked for by the initial Jewish pioneer farmer. He as a rule was one of the many who came to this country in the early days, and considered himself Baron de Hirsch's grandchild. If the chickens didn't lay as many eggs as expected and the cow didn't yield the amount of milk or the quality that would meet the computations, nobody was to blame, because after all one factor, the biological argument that entered into this whole process of approach, was ignored. Today the Jewish farmer is viewed arid reviewed from the scientific angle. Scientifically, the present method still leaves the matter of adjustment and likely yield to the rooster. He partially determines to what an extent the pullets may yield the large white eggs raised by the leghorns. The latter seem to be the prize specialty of the majority of the Jewish farmers located IS to 2i hours' ride from the city of New York, throughout the counties in New Jersey known- as Monmouth, Somerset, Middlesex, Mercer, Ocean, etc. Here are some 500 Jewish farmers.

Those spoken to provoked an interest sufficient to afford a cross-picture of the Jewish farmers in northern New. Jersey and gave an idea as to how long they were on the land. They likewise gave the reasons as to why they came there from the big cities, mainly New York and Philadelphia. Near Bound Brook, within a few miles from that city, an avenue cuts through known as Davidson Avenue. It is so named in honor of Gabriel Davidson, the manager of the Jewish Agricultural Society of New York with the sanction of the County Court House. Some 30 Jewish farmers are located here. The first of the farmers is a Turkish Jew from Smyrna. His name is Jacob Farhy, the only S«phardic Jew in the lot; he speaks English and reads Spanish written in Hebrew characters, Ladino is* a Castilian language which Christian Spaniards can understand but' not read. Farhy has been on the land seven years, in America 20 years. Living in the vicinity of Allen Street, New York, before that thoroughfare was

Standing at the threshhold of a New Year, in the presence of Him "from out whose hand the centuries roll as grains of sand," let us not feel that our days are not given to us for a purpose. We know our time here is brief, pitifully brief in the estimation of God's measureless might. But, knowing that, and without ceasing to wonder while we worship, let us devote our lives to the accomplishment of that which is seemly and good for the advancement to that state of perfection for which the Maker destined his creatures.

On Rosh Hashonah let Jewry, grateful for 5,694 years of glorious history, enter upon the NewYear with confidence, not unmindful of a past that is full of honor, but setting eyes on the future to the end that effort bemore and more directed to the fulfillment of the promise and the realization of the hope that has guided the Jews through so many years, sustained in light and darkness, in prosperity and adversity, to the sunlight of the present. "The wilderness and the parched land shall be glad; and the desert shall rejoiceand blossom as the rose." As the Prophet spoke so long ago, itwill be with this New Year. and "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer *«, winter, and day and night shall not cease." Oppressors have been broken in their strength, calamities have been sustained, and through the steadfast greatness of the soul Jewry has overcome evil and wrought good n R lember this, and go forward.

The Omaha Federation and Center is a member of the National Council of Jewish Federations and Welfare Funds, which was organized in 1932, with the object of offering a medium Community . Forum. , . for the consideration of the common _ Last year; the Budget comjnittee interests and problems of the Jewish did not allot: any funds for a Com- federations and centers, and to munity Forum. The committee, however, felt that irrespective of the condition of the times the Forum should not be abandoned and undertook to carry on the Forum on its own responsibility. Under the able leadership of William Grodinsky, this past year the Forum was both a success as an institution and fi-> nancially. There was no deficit this year. It was no easy task to do this. Many people felt that the Forum should be dropped for one year, but the committee reached the conclusion that to break the continuity of the Forum would spell complete loss. The educational committee consists of: William Grodinsky, chairman; Milton Abrahams, Frank Ackerman, Mrs. Jeannette Arnstein, Dr. O..S. Belzer, Eugene Blazer, Arthur A. Cohn, Harry B. Cohen, Rabbi Frederick Cohn, Dr. Leon Fellman, Mrs. A. D. Frank, Mrs. Max Fromkin, Rabbi D. A. Goldstein, Mrs. Sam Green, Rose Grodinsky, Mrs. Max Holzman, William L.

, The record of the activities of the Jewish Community Center for the past year is overflowing with signs of its necessity in this community. The events of the past twelve months so far as our Jewish citizenry is concerned, has again proven to our people that "In unity there is strength." Omaha Jewry is recogn zing more each day and month the value of an institution that houses all forms of Jewish activity, and brings within its doors for good, men, women, and children. To this institution come our people to get strength of mind, culture, body, soul and learning. In this unity of purpose the Jewish Community Center will continue to grow. The general program of this unity and strength in the Jewish Community Center is divirsified. We have attempted by it to embrace every known form of activity. The obvious purpose of such a program is to find some activity that will enfold the aspirations, ideals, hopes and; desires of every person. School of Music An Active Community Center.

FREEDOM * * *• * * A NEW YEAR! We are all glad to see it eome. But in our rejoicing, let's not cast aside the old year without some word of praise. Let's pause a moment and reflect. Are we better off today than we were a year ago? In material things, perhaps not. But in faith, in the stability and future of this nation, we've grown rich; It's just history repeating itself again. You recall that history relates back in 1776 —an old man pulled lustily on a great bell. The joyous sound was heard around the world. It surged into-the hearts of the op-

pressed from all lands... and they came to America for a new deal. During the past year that old liberty bell rang out again. This time swung by the hand of our peerless leader and beloved President, Franklin Delano Roosevelt. The message of another new deal is heard. I don't know much about economic charts and averages and all that, but as I look back I recall that all through this last old year everybody seemed more hopeful and happy. We were born to the tune of that old liberty bell. As we greet the bright dawn of a New Year, let's keep it ringing. SAM JOSEPHSON.

of Jewish Women

Under its new administrative plan renewed interest will be aroused in the- Omaha Council of Jewish Women through the extensive scope of the year's program, according to Mrs. A. D. Frank, administrative vice-presijdent. The organization will function as three distinct departments; namely, administration, social, and education,

with a chairman and committee for each department. During the past year, one of the most active groups of the council has been the International Relations group, headed by Mrs. Manuel Grodinsky. Pertinent topics formed the basis for talks by various civic leaders, and discussion followed by the group, in open forum fashion. It was with regret that the council was forced to accept the resignation of its president early in spring, when a change in residence made it necessary for Mrs. Robert Glazer to submit her resignation. Mrs. A. D. Frank and Mrs. Max Holzman, ably carried out the season's program, however. Another group to gain much from its meetings was the child study class of which Mrs. Sam Stern was chairman. Meeting weskly at the Community Center to study problems of child care, these members heard discussions by experts in this field, and extended their course for an additional period of time so as to include more of the subject matter. As usual, the council's annual bridge party climaxed the season,

raising funds for the ways and means committee, under the chairmanship of Mrs. Philip Levey.

Highland The Highland Ccruntry club enjoyed a highly successful season during the summer just past, with more and more of Omaha Jewry being lured by its well-balanced program. Abe Herzberg was re-elected president. The other officers who served were: Sam J. Leon, vice-president; Harry Malashock, treasurer; Ed Treller, secretary. The board of directors included the officers and Jerome Heyn, M. E. Chapman, Al Mayer, Dave Feder, Dr. A. Greenberg, Ben Danbaum, Manning E. Handler, Dr. M. I. Gordon, Louis Hiller, Morton L. Degen, Milton Livingston, I. B. Zimman, Morris Milder, H. A. Wolf, Leslie L. BUTkenroad, J. H. Kulakofsky, Morris Fcrer. The committee chairmen who assisted in making the season so enjoyable were: Harry Malashock, house committee; Louis Hiller, (Continued on Page 8.)

History teaches usthat a provident God provides a balance in life ... that for every nisfJif there is a daton, for every shower there is a rainbow, for every sorrow there is a joy, for every death there is a new life born. History teaches us that the Jewish people in their epical past survived prehistoric paganism, Babylonian polytheism, Roman sanguinii». Spanish inquisition ... that across the Jewish path there rose and fell a Pharoah, a Haman, an Antiochus, a Torquemada . . . that under each, Israel suffered untold anguish, hut true to her ideals, she rose through God's [ providence to ever greater glory, living on—cen-

turies after her oppressors returned unto dust The Jewish history of 5694 was written in blood and tears, through IVazr barbarity directed by a Hitler. . .but we bury deep in our consciousness the tortured memories of the travail-laden year just passed, as—heeding the lessons of history—we greet the birth of a new year in humble hope and hallowed resolution. Borne on the billows of sacred memory and cognizant of the historical significance of these High Holydays, We look to a provident God for the golden era which inevitably must follow the age of iron.

grants and. the anti-immigration protests, but these are insignificant when the whole picture is viewed. Most of the Arabs are thankful for the rising prosperity Jewish industry, finance and initiative have brought to the country and realize fully the benefits the Palestinian Arabs have derived from the Jewish influx, in health and in a much higher standard of living. As a result of tiie Arab betterment, Moslems from the bordering countries have been coming to Palestine to reap the fruits of booming times. The Arab-Jewish relations should be improved in all respects possible, as the years roll on. But, this must necessarily be a byproduct in Jewish efforts—for us, the upbuilding of the homeland is the supreme task. Man-power and money-power are the backbones of the land rebuilt, in which both Arab and Jew "will live as neighbors, once more making Palestine the promised land.

Able hands are needed to steer a true course through the stormy waters of a changing age. Century after century Israel — guided by a spiritual compass, constant and eternal, always pointing toward a greater social justice and brotherhood of man—Israel has ever lent loyal and able hands to help weather the tempests of commercial, social and political uncertainty which have beset each changing age . . . Today, the fast-moving currents of history are fraught with perils. More than ever, able hands and level heads are needed to bring the new era to safe harbor. As Israel in the past has given generously of the power of her intellect and the genius of her trade—which have proven indispensable to the progress of civilization—so may the New Year witness an even greater role by Israel in the charting of humanity's future course of greater promise.

This skeleton map of the vast territory served by Union Pacific indicates graphically why we say "Union Pacific serves more of the West and its National Parks than any other railroad.". In such a limited space, only few of the innumerable attractions along the Union Pacific can be shown, but this map shows how the Union Pacific blankets the West between Omaha and the Pacific Coast.

party at the Blackstone hotel, and an initiation slumber party. This group holds its bi-weekly meetings at the homes of the members, every other meeting being a combination of business and social gathering.. Several entertaining, cultural, and interesting programs have been-presented at the meetings. Included in these have been a book review by Rabbi Goldstein, a lecture by Dr. Victor E. Levins, a lecture by Mrs. Lorig, and several musical and bridge socials. For the coming year, the following officers have been elected. President, Miss Sarah Baum; vice-president, Miss Sadie Tatleman; secretary, Jeanette Resnick; treasurer, Etta Tatleman; reporter, Rose Saks.

Minnie Froom of the Junior Vaad and Joe Fellman and Hascall Cohen of the Young Men's Vaad were the participants. In its religious activities the Junior Vaad conducted forum discussions every Friday night immediately following religious services. It also participated in "Vaad Night,'' a .special Friday night service, which included a symposium pertaining to the Jewish girl in the home, in the synagogue and her relation to the outside world. Sarah German, Marion Wienberg, and Dora Freshman represented the Junior Vaad. The Jnior Vaad, in February of 1934 pledged itself to contribute to the Women's Devision of the Senior Vaad $100.00 a year and for the remaining term of 1934 contributed as an initial gift $50.00, Some of the social activities as well as fund raising conducted by the Junior Vaad were a weiner roast; a bridge, and a Mothers' and Daughters' Tea. All of these affairs proved socially and financially successful. The Junior Vaad and the Young Men's Vaad provided the winning team in the Jewish National Fund Drive. Sam Hahn and Dora Freshman were in charge of the teams sent out. The Junior Vaad since its formation has always contributed to the Com-

munity Chest and the Jewish Philanthropies. The year's activities were climaxed in June by a farewell party given at Peony Park in honor of Rabbi Uri Miller, spiritual advisor, who at that time was preparing to leave for a tour of Europe and Palestine. 5695 activities will be in charge of Dora Freshman, who was re-elected president; Sara German, vice prcddent; Rose Kirshenbaum, secretary; Bess Kirschenbaum, treasurer; and Mae Tucker, reporter. Mrs. Neveleft and Mrs. N. Greenberg were unanimously re-elected as sponsors.

SATURDAY M O R N I N G at Chicago Union Station From 8:00 to 10:00 every Saturday morning . . .and Sunday mornings tod . . . Chicago Union Station presents a scene of amazing activity as Century of Progress visitors from everywhere pour out of the incoming trains and East meets West in the great concourse--r-perhaps the busiest acre of floor space in America. Gay crowds — holiday crowds'— meeting friends, telephoning about hotel rooms, rushing for buses, taxis, street cars and elevated trains . . .everybody bound for the World's Fair. Hundreds of the visitors reach Chicago with the popular week-end tours organized and operated by the Burlington Railroad. Ak-Sar-Ben tours from Omaha and Lincoln; Black Hawk tours from St. Paul and Minneapolis; American Royal tours from Kansas City and St. Joseph . . all contribute their quota to the colorful throng.

They've had a good breakfast in the dining car; their baggage is taken in charge by the ever-present red caps; motor coaches await to wheel them over the boulevards to the Exposition Grounds; skilled escorts serve as efficient guides; rooms at one of the world's largest and finest hotels (the STEVENS on Michigan boulevard) have been reserved. Everything lined up in advance . . . nothing to do but have a good time. ' Ak-Sar-Ben Tours leave Omaha (on the Ak-Sar-Ben) every Friday and Saturday night at 8;30 PM. —2-day Tours at $16.00; 3-day Tours at $20.00.

Paper Is Suspended 2,000 EXTRA POUCE BYSAAR For False Accusation Geneva (JTA).—At least 2.000 additional police are needed in the Saar basin, the League of Nations commission governing the area informed the League, if the plebiscite to be held there in January is to be carried out peacefully. The inhabitants of the Saar are to choose whether they are to return to Germany, become a part of France, or continue under the rule of the League of Nations. Conditions in the Saar have become so bad in the last few months that it was utterly out of control, the commission said, asking for the recruiting of the additional 2,000 men in foreign countries, recommending countries which are members of the League and in which German is spoken. According to the commission the Saar gendarmerie is utterly useless and is maintaining relations with the Nazi secret police.

Warsaw, (WNS).—The newspaper Janige Bozanska, a conservative progovernment organ, has been suspended for publishing a sensational report alleging that French diplomats in Warsaw were supporting the anti-Semitic activities of the outlawed National Radical (Nara) Party. The basis for the paper's charge was the reported discovery of papers bearing the signature of M. La Roche, French ambassador to Poland, and of the French military attache, among the effects of a member of the National Radical Party who was arrested. Government officials would neither deny nor confirm the charges of Janige Bozanska.

He retired from business in 1914. His wife, who was his partner in all of his great works, Line Gutherz Straus, enjoyed the romance of life, simple, beautiful and inspiring. STRAUS

Many years ago, on a European trip, Nathan Straus lost a two-year-old daughter who died because of a lack of pure milk. It is a clear revelation of the character of Nathan Straus that the personal calamity did not drive him into fatalistic apathy, but sent him forth upon a career of active philanthropy, by which he saved the lives of millions of children. He founded, among other philanthropic endeavors, the Straus Milk Depots. It has been said tfea£ he saved more little children from premature death than perhaps any man in the world. President H o o v e r eulogized Nathan Straus as a Jewish leader whose vision of service transcended all limits of race and creed. When Nathan Straus retired from active business, he even disposed of his yacht so as to have more funds for his philanthropies in the service of his less fortunate brothers.

He set up permanent funds for milk stations in both New York and Palestine. His son, Nathan Straus, Jr., is carrying on his philanthropic work with children. CHILDREN O F TODAY ARE DESTINED TO MAKE HISTORY O F TOMORROW. AND SO . . . WE URGE YOU TO USE EVERY BIT O F GRIT AND DETERMINATION YOU HAVE, TO BUILD STRONG, HEALTHY FUTURE LEADERS.

Will the Coming Generation Be Stronger? More than twenty-five years ago the ROBERTS DAIRY COMPANY started in Lincoln, Nebraska. Now a second generation is using Roberts milk. During the time that the first generation has been maturing, scientists have found what different foods are needed to build sound teeth, to promote the greatest possible ^owth and best nutrition. Milk containing a very rich supply of the "sunshine" vitamin is one of the advances of modern science. Here are the reasons why. Milk is extremely rich in minerals essential to growth in childhood and health at all ages. "Sunshine" Vitamin D vitally helps the body to make use of these minerals needed to build sound teeth and sturdy bones. Roberts Vitamin D milk contains a very rich supply of "sunshine" vitamin D.

Sukendk, chief archaeologist of the Hebrew University, is in charge of the excavation. The Hasmonean dynasty came into power about 165 B. C, after Jehudah Maccabeus, great Jewish military leader, called by his soldiers "The Hammer," led a successful revolt of the Jews against Antiochus Epipanes, Syrian Greek ruler who attempted to make the Jews worship idols. The revolt lasted three years. In honor of the victory and to commemorate the cleansing of the Temple, Chanukah, or the feast of lights was instituted and is celebrated to this day. The Hasmonean kings, at first powerful rulers, held undisputed sway over the Jews. Later the family degenerated and while they were engaged in internal squabbles, the Romans assumed power. In 37 B. C. the last survivor of the Hasmoneans was executed by Herod, who assumed the kingly power. "Work Is Onr Life" is the new slogan of Jewish youth in Germany, who have emblazoned these words in Hebrew and German on the walls of a Jewish labor camp. of Polish Jewry during 5694, if such a thing were possible in view of its absolute destitution. A series of laws and government decrees struck devastating blows at the segment of the Polish population which still retained something which could be taken from it. But the worst blow which Polish Jewry received was the utter shattering of its confidence in the sincerity of the government. The present regime failed completely to take any steps to defend its Jewish citizens from Nara attacks and only suppressed the Nazas when the lives of the government members were imperilled by Nara gangsters. ; The government failed to remove restrictions which contributed largely t6 tha Polish Jawish economic de-

bacle and, in fact, sanctioned further decrees which advanced the. Jews along the road to bankruptcy. On the occasion of the visit to Poland of propaganda Minister Goebbels to Poland, the government forbade the Jews to make any public protest and abetted the affront to its Jewish population in permitting Goebbels to attack the Jews. Furthermore, the Yiddish press, on Hitler's usurpation of von Hindenburg's position, was or dared to print nothing derogatory concerning the head of the friendly, neighboring state. The attitude of the government toward the Jews was crystallized for the latter in the refusal of Col. Slawek, head of the government par(Continued on Page 11)

Palestine Calls I hear the call of Palestine From blood that flows within my chest,

••--"-

A yearning for this land has come, That makes me want to leave the west. I want a hoe, and go to work, Upon its sandy sacred soil. To pioneer like a true Jew, An ideal—the object of my toil. I want to build a land anew, Where peace itself shall fly above, Where justice, knowledge and honor, All shall mingle with brotherly love. To Palestine I want to go, Where Moses does on Sinai lie, Where others like him now do rest; In Palestine I want to die. —NATHAN CROUNSE.

HAIFA AROUSED BY SENTENCES Haifa (J. T. A.)—The Jewish popelation here has been stirred to indignation at the severe sentences meted out to fifty-two persons arrested for. picketing activities carried on in front of the building being erected by the Jewish contractor Borovsky. Forty-six of the picketers were sentenced to one month terms, while the other six were given sentences of three months each. On an additional charge of obtsructing police in their efforts to break up the picketing, twenty-five others were arrested and held for trial. The picketing is a result of charges that Borovsky is employing1 on the building project large numbers of Hauranese Arabs, many of whom it is reported have entered the country illegally, and who are displacing legitimate Jewish labor. Labor representatives interviewed District Commissioner Morris Bailey and pointed out to him that Haifa is harboring 3,700 Hauranese who entered Palestine from Syria without legal permits. Of this number, the representatives declared, 1,800 are employed by Jews and are thus depriving Jews of jobs to which they are rightfully entitled. The committee also protested to Commissioner Bailey against alleged harshness on the part of the police in dealing with the arrested picketers. In answer to the complaints, the Commissioner replied that it was the duty of the authorities to uphold the law without reference to private issues between Jewish contractors and laborers.

There are many ways in which terror can operate. The economic MILWAUKEE, weapon, used ruthlessly against the Jews, is no less a terroristic weapon ST PAUL / than are brass knuckles and strongarm tactics. A terror can operate merely by a consistent propagandizing to the effect that opposition will not be met by ruthless force—if everyone knows that the force is there and that there are no legal means to combat it. Civilization regards as a state of terror any condition under which people are not protected against assaults on their persons or liberties by an impartial law which circumscribes not only what the individual citizen may do to society but what society—organized in the state—may do to the individual. No individual and no group of individuals have any protection against the decisions or vagaries of the autocratic state in Germany. (Copyright, 1934.)

REFUGEES AID BRITISH TRADE, SAYS REPORT London (JTA).—The London Star reported that the German Jewish refugees who were permitted to enter and settle in England have proven an asset to the country, bringing with them their specialized knowledge of the trades and professions they were engaged in. According to the Star, one German Jew who sold coal in small quantities in Hamburg set up a similar business in England and now employs 180 people. Another Jew who was the owner of a mail addressing business now employs 120 English workers in the same business, which he has established in London. Other English newspapers have likened the flight of the German. Jewish refugees to the expnlsion of the Huguenots from France and pointed out that just as England benefited from the stupidity of the French kings, Britain would benefit from the folly of the Nazis. Lord Rutherford, noted British scientist, recently reported that already the German Jewish scholars working in England have made significant discoveries in their fields, particularly in chemistry.

The communication, simultaneously addressed to ail foreign chambers of commerce, told of the immigration department's desire to eliminate irregularities such as are produced by employment of special agents, commonly known in Mexico as "coyotes," who intervene en behalf of the immigrant. The various chambers of commerce were invited to send delegates to a meeting which was held recently and which was attended by many representatives of the foreign chambers of commerce. The department officials expressed a desire of instituting a System whereby the chambers of commerce will be responsible for citizens of their respective countries who seek admission to this country. Prospective immi slants will be requested to send in their applications, affidavits and other necessary documents to the proper chamber of commerce, j:which will study the matter together with the immigration authorities. The representatives at the meeting agreed to maintain weekly contact with the unmi'rration authorities. The American Chamber of Commerce immediately announced establishment of a special immigration department which will handle immigra-. tion matters for American citizens. Among the Jewish residents of Mexico, especially those who have relatives abroad whom they wish to bring here, the new plan has aroused great interest.

Florence Willner, the very competent secretary of many a Zionist leader, will tell you that speech is unnecessary — that a man gives himself away by all sorts of external indices. Thus, she points out that Rabbi Wise and Dr. Margoshes, for instance, have an extremely large handwriting, j Justice Brandeis, Morris Rothenberg and Louis Lipsky, on the con- ' trary, have a very small hand. ' The large handvrriting shows a leaning for the dramatic. The small for the more detailed and thorough type of mind. People with a tendency to "cross eyedness" are all clever, she says, and points to Dr. Schmarryahu-Lewin and Rabbi Wise. Left handed people generally, too, are bright, she holds, pointing to Louis Lipsky.

Spinoza, in his Theologicus Tracta tus, expressed himself in favor of the restoration of Palestine as the Jewish homeland. Sigmund Freud has written a special introduction for a Hebrew translation of bis works, which have just appeared in Palestine. Dr. A Wolfson, author of a recent volume on Spinoza, is at work on a volume on Maimonides. Dr. Harry Wolfson of Harvard, no relative of A. Wolfson, will soon have his tome on Spinoza published. Nathan Ausubel, author of the much praised life of Frederick the Great, is authoring a play on war. Sam Warshawsky, descendant, of .Wilna Gaon, has finished a play which will soon see prodnction. Secretary of State Hull's children would have a hard time of it in Germany, as they are "non-Aryans"— the Secretary's wife being a Jewess. Dr. S. M. Melamed is finishing another tome, Kant and the Prophets, in which he is expected to do some hard shooting at Karl Marx.

Savant Cook Says ites a Misnomer London (J. TV A.)—Stanley Cook, Professor of Hebrew at Cambridge University, writing in the Times says that the word Semite as used by antiSemites or "pro-Aryans'', first used about 150 years ago, was taken from Genesis, chapter. X.,; where Shem is the-ancestor of what is neither an ettinographical nor a linguistic group. But although the term is one applied by | Orientalists, for convenience, to a clearly defined group of .languages (including the ancient Babylonian and the modern Arabic), the lands in question are culturally of mixed-origin, and-were in closest contact with Negroes, Egyptians, Sumerians, IndoEuropeans, and others. There is no doubt, Professor Cook declares, that the Israelites, or Jews who lived in the "meeting-place of continents," were of at least two physical types, one of them apparently of Philistine or, rather, Aegian connection; and that there was intermarriage with Canaanites, Amorites, Edomites, and the rest is beyond dispute. Moreover, the descendants of the old population of Palestine are to be found, not only among the scattered

Jews, but also among the present population, which, naturally, is not entirely due to the Arab conquests, which changed the cultural history of the ancient land. "Indeed, if we regard the link between the Jews and Palestine as one essentially religious, those enthusiastic Zionists whose interests are more economic than religious do not necessarily consider their ancestral religion to constitute their strongest tie with the land of their fathers," he said. And, if on the other hand, the emphasis is to be laid upon the religious history of Israel, there is no doubt ;whatever that the -essential features of the religion of the Bible are due as much to the earlier Canaanites, Amorites and other peoples of Palestine as to invasions from the desert, of which the entrance of the Israelites was the only one.

Latvian Veterans In War for Freedom Given $500 Grants

Riga, Latzia.—Nine hundred Jewish veterans of the war for Latvia's independence will receive grants of $500 each from the government, it was announced. According to a recent law each veteran of the war is entitled to a plot of land at government expense. Since the government did net have sufficient lands available for this purpose, it has set aside $450,000 for cash, inLondon (WNS) — Employment of stead of land grants. non-Jewish labor in Jewish agricultural and industrial undertakings in all parts of Palestine is growing at an alarming rate, figures published in the July-August issue of The New Judea, official organ of the World New York (W.

PALESTINE COLONY Jewry of Greece FOR REFUGEES IS Urged to Remain NAMED FOR BIALIK Athens, Greece (J. T. A.)—Expressing regret that Jews were emigrating from Salonica owing to the economic crisis and declaring that the Greek government was well disposed towards the Jews, Under-Secretary of State Rhodopolus in a press conference termed the Salonica Jews necessary for the development of the city. "I regret greatly that Jews are emigrating from Salonica owing, to the economic crisis, but I hope that their departure will soon' be discontinued," he declared. "The Jews are a necessary and important factor in the development of Salonica and they have an interest in living there. The government is well disposed toward the Jews and is ready to hear their justified wishes. I personally am a sincere friend of the Jews whom I know closely. I have no feeling save that of sympathy for them," the Greek official concluded.

New York (W. N. S.)—Construction work on the new community named for the late Chaim Nachman Bialik, Kiryath Bialik, a settlement of 100 homes for German-Jewish refugees near Haifa Bay, is being rushed. . Kiryath- Bialik, adjoining Kiryath Chaim (named for the late Dr. Chaim Arlosoroff), was laid out from, plans drawn by Professor Amercrombie, famous city-planner, and is the first large-scale enterprise for the perman-r ent settlement of refugees in Palestine, under the auspices of the Hitachrut Olej Germania. The settlement, the second Jewish suburb at Haifa Bay, is being aided by the Central Bureau for the Settlement of German Jews in Palestine, one of the beneficiaries of the United Jewish Appeal. The Bureau has granted long-term second mortgages on the houses being built for the settlers, while the "Thou Shalt Marry an Jewish National Fund has allotted Aryan" Berlin.—The commandment to wed 600 dunams of land, 200 for suburban development and the remainder for Aryans only ranks high in the decaan adjoining agricultural colony on logue on marriage orders issued to all which 20 settlers are to be placed.

NAZI IMPORTS HERE DROP 3 3 PER CENT New York (J. T. A.)—The antiNazi boycott is strangling German economic life, Dr. Joseph Tenenbaum, chairman of the Boycott Committee of the American Jewish Congress, declared. Nazi Germany's trade with the United States has fallen thirty-three per cent in the six months between January 1, 1934 and June 30, 1934, according to statistics compiled by the Boycott Committee. While Germany's exports to the United States during the first six months of 1933, totaled 136,786,767 Reichsmarks, this figure has now dropped to 46,279,368. Coupled with this announcement, Dr. Tenenbaum addressed an appeal to the public not to desist in its determination to isolate Nazi Germany economically. He urged that the High Holy day season be permitted, to mark the beginning of a period of intensification of the boycott.

Mexico May Admit Refugees, Is Report Mexico City (W. N. S.)—That former President Plutarco ,Elias Calles told Bernard S.

Gen?ral Calles also promised Mr. Deutsch that the Mexican government would do its utmost to stop the anti-Semitic campaign of the Fascist Gold Shirts. The daily La Prnesa declares that government action may be taken because of the action of the Gold Shirts in sending a delegation to call on Mr. Deutsch to protest against his statement on anti-Semitism in Mexico.

Outstanding Record for first Six Months of 1 9 3 4 proves Standing of our. Association among People of America During the first six months of 1934, insurance sold by our Association exceeded the sales during the same period of 1933 by 16%! That record demonstrates two things. First, that life insurance has proved itself, during the - past four years, as one of the soundest investments—particularly in times of business uncertainty. Second, that the Woodmen of the World Life Insurance Association has built for itself a reputation for strength, soundness and conservatism, in order to be so handsomely accepted by purchasers of insurance.

IS WORTH A WHOLE LAND OF PROMISE" J D AKEK, air conditioning and refrigerating units take first place when judged on the basis of performance. JSTo set of claims or promises can overshadow the Baker record of service, which extends back to the very beginning of refrigerating science. And every Baker machine is built to match the Baker definition of performance — "many extra years of trouble-free sendee; dependable, flexible operation under all conditions at lowest cost." £* OR nearly thirty years the Baker Ice Machine Company has been an Omaha institution. Its employees are local residents who work the year 'round at building, engineering, and installing Baker machines. Their standards of precision workmanship have made the name Baker synonymous with quality the world over. Take advantage of Baker's long experience when you plan air conditioning or refrigeration— no job is too large or too small for Baker engineers.

But the visit of Ferris to Berlin and his assurances to the Germans coupled with an article published in the United States by Brundage hinting that American athletes would compete at Berlin, indicate that the American Olympic Committee has definitely decided on participation. On behalf of the Nazi regime, Dr. Lewald, himself of Jewish descent, declared that the Hitler government would give German Jewish athletes a place on the German Olympic team and would give those athletes every facility for training and competition. Immediately after the Nazi advent to power all German Jewish athletes were ousted from the German sport clubs and associations and deprived of opportunity to train or compete. The American Jewish Congress, in a letter addressed to the American Olympic Committee, challenged the truth of Dr. Lewald's statement and pointed out that this would indicate a complete reversal of the entire Nazi program. The Congress pointed cut that there was no indication of sucn a revolution in German .opinion. . •

FERRIS DECLARES REICH TO GET 1936 OLYMPICS

Tel Aviv (JTA). — The enormous growth of traffic through this city's railway system is revealed in figures published in the Tel Aviv Municipality bulletin. During the calendar year of 1933, the incoming tonnage handled was 122,871, and outgoing tonnage was 10,591. In all there were 85,666 passengers. Thus railway receipts for tha year show an increase of 11,969 pounds over the t.otal 1932 total of 10,395. Statistics on building construction activity, just released are interesting. No less than 103,481 square meters of buildings were added to Tel Aviv during the quarter ending May 30, 1932, representing an increase of some 22,000 square meters over the same quarter of 1933. The number of building permits issued was 540, compared with 560 in the same 1933 quarter.

WILL PUBLISH SPANISH BOOK ON RAMBAM South Americans Plan Work to Mark His 800th Anniversary.

Buenos Aires (J. T. A.)—The publication of a Spanish book on the life and works of the Rambam, great Jewish philosopher, commentator and scientist, the 800th anniversary of whose birth comes in March 1935, has been decided upon by the local "Hebraica" organization as a step towards popularizing the name and philosophy of the famous writer among Spanish speaking people. The book will contain essays and monographs on the Rambam's versatility as physician, philosopher, commentator on the Talmud, and codifier of Jewish law and of the dogmas of Nazi Flag on Jewish Jewish ethics.

Jewish Meetings in Germany Curbed

British Jews Amazed

Berlin (WNS).—Jews are to hold as few meetings as possible, and notice of any meetings scheduled to be held in private Jewish homes must be filed with the police, according to a ruling made public here.

London.—The report that a group of British Jews headed by Lord Reading is planning a jact with Hitler reported in the Echo de Paris, has called forth great amazement here.. It is pointed out that the Board of Jewish Deputies would never sanction such a move.

Berlin (JTA).—According to a letter received here by an American Jewish resident in Berlin, Pinchas Dashevsky, Russian Zionist who in 1903 attempted to kill Peter Krushevan, prime mover in the incitement leading to the bloody pogrom of that year .in Kishinev, died recently in the Soviet Union. Dashevsky was sentenced to serve five years in jail for the attempted assassination, but was freed after serving only part of his sentence. He was defended by Dr. O. O. Grusenberg, brilliant Russian Jewish attorney, who later defended Mendel Beilis in the famous Kiev trial. Dashevskys bullet grazed the throat of the notorious anti-Semite. , In March, 1914, Dashevsky, together with Krasovsky, Kiev police chief who was dismissed from his post because- he was convinced of the innocence of Mendel Beilis, came to the United States and stayed for three months, questioning American Jewish witnesses who cquR: ??Te ^ S 1 ? ^ proof of the innocence of

anti-Semitic violence, as have other countries to the south. Establishment of commercial undertakings, bombings, beatings, street parades—these are part of the South American antiSemitic technique. The increase of these symptoms puts into question the numerous proposals that have been , made for -the colonization of . large bodies of Jews in Central and South; American countries. South Africa, where the Jew was gradually- becoming integrated into the body politic; Turkey, whose die-, tator-president has established social and political reforms of far-reaching, importance; Japan, where the Jewish population is negligible; Czechoslovakia, ruled by one of the most distinguished men of our time, President Thomas Masaryk; Cuba, where the" local population should have learned the lesson of brutal domination—in each of these countries there has occurred in some form or other, mild or violent, a manifestation of that ageless, baseless, endless animosity toward the Jew. ; The year 5694 ends on a particularly sad note, not only because of tho blood and tears that strew this dreadful chapter of history, but because there seems no bright hope on the horizon, pointing to the clearing up of th« dark and menacing clouds.

^Ladies Should listen"

In the prize ring Jews gained their greatest athletic triumphs this past year. Four of the world's hexing- titles are now held by Jews: Max Baer, leavyweight; Max Kosenbloom, lightleavyweight; and Barney Boss, lightweight and welterweight. Shasta Eotholz, a mite of 122 pounds from 'oland, won the atateur featherweight hampionship of Europe and then came to Chicago, where he was the mly member of the invading Polish team to win a bout in the Polish-Chicago Golden Glove matches. Harry Mizler captured the lightweight championship of England. In Canada Maxie Berger, a 17-year-old lightweight, who represents the Montreal Y. M. H. A., carried Canada's colors in the Royal Games in London. Oth-1 er Jewish champions in the American j amateur ranks during the past year were Al Demedowitz, Metropolitan A. \ A. U. heavyweight winner; Eddie Hass, New England bantam ehamp; Bob Bloom, New England heavyweight titleholder; Jake Friedman, 135-pound champ of the U. S. Navy; and Izzy Richter, National A. A. TJ. champion. The triumphs of Baer and Ross overshadowed the doings.of the lesser Jewish fighters, notably Art Lasky, who may yet be the party of the second part in an all-Jewish bout for the heavyweight title; Kingfish Levinsky, Abe Feldman, Natie Brown and Barney Fox. Rosenbloom's most persistent challenger is another Jewish fighter by the name of Bob Olin. Boss is looking for stiff battles from Eddie Kid Wolfe in the welterweight division and from Harry Bri

If anything, the plight of Israel in Germany seems worse now than ever. And the situation is of more than passing importance to the rest of the world. All that enlightened liberalism holds to be civilized — tolerance in religion and politics and thought, peace, human brotherhood, international cooperation, democracy —all these are hated by orthodox Nazis. If the fight of world Jewry and militant world liberal opinion, of lovers of peace, of advocates of social justice everywhere, fails, if the weapon of the boycott proves futile, then not only the Jews, but Christianity itself, all that we call civilization, will be extinguished in the Third Reich. And Nazism has already proved itself a disease which seeks to spread to other nations, which has spread to other nations, bringing with it hatred, and distrust, if not actual bloodshed.' If there be any who expect still to arrive at some peaceful understanding with the Nazis, let them give close attention to the words of Reichbishop Mueller, Hitler's chief executive for Christianity: "The plebiscite," says this humane pontiff, "is the beginning of the whole nation's Christianity, since the people had the courage to vote for and to stand behind the Leader in his fight against the Jews. Hitler's fight is for Christianity and against the Jews, the most savage enemies' of Christianity. The German people, united as they are, may go through bitterness and distress, but they will win this campaign for .Christianity even if the Jews get together and determine to destroy the nation." Thus he speaks, this modern representative of Jesus. But he speaks amid the universal horror of ChristiariZfclergy, Protestants and Catholics. : Even in Germany Christianity stillhas representatives with courage enough to stand up against the Nazi intolerance. Mueller and other German leaders have clearly indicated that the Nazis intend to wage a fight to ..the iinish against non-Nazis, both Jews and others. Only by a united stand of world Jewry with representatives of labor, democracy, peace and liberal religion can this danger be fought. Surely the lack of unity among Jews, the most brazenly persecuted of Nazi victims, is neither a credit to Israel nor a help to the cause. , •'•••-'• The greatly increased demand from month to month, and year to year, is the best evidence that can be offered—that Grant Batteries Nor is Muellers' voice alone.

If the enthusiasm evinced by young men of Sioux City in the local A. Z. A. chapter were a barometer of the youth of America, our leaders would have little to worry about thfuture of Judaism, Sioux City's A. Z. A. member have just completed a year filled to the brim with activi participation in all Jewish events and unusual interest in Jewish cultural and educational programs. Their well balanced calendar included social events, athletic contests, participation in religious services, and co-operation with other chapters in the United States. A. Z. A. Sabbath was celebrated at Shaare Zion Synagogue and Mount Sinai temple with A. Z. A. members participating in Friday evening services. A Passover dance and a summer dance received the patronage of large crowds. The eighth anniversary of the A. Z. A. was celebrated with a ritual program. Speakers at the regular meetings included Julius Bisnow of Omaha and Judge Munger of Sioux City. An A. Z. A. school for members and pledges was organised and a pledge system for new members was inaugurated. At the district convention in Lincoln, the local basketball team forged their way to the finals before meeting with defeat. The summer program included a number of outings, and the annual Round Table at Riverside. Rudy Shindler is the president of the chapter.
