' • <: T h e Boss' Son >It came to pass that in the fullness of time (as I am told) Hitler came to heaven. To those -who •may at once protest that heaven JB*TIO place Hitler I should reply that this was also the opinion of most of those who abide in heaven. 'Though their earthly prides and prejudices and vanities have fallen away from them people still are quite particular there. Even the saints were not happy in the presence- of Father Coughlin who came to heaven about the time Hitler did. In the years before, the pure air of the interstellar spaces was made almost stifling by the venom of his voice. The saints were afraid of him and St. Theresa (who is of the Little Flower) had gone to her sanctuary to pray that Coughlin's soul might give itself only to justice and truth and kindness in heaven. .Yet the divine mercy of heaven IB lor everybody and so Hitler got in even as Coughlin did. And, indeed, afterwards when Goei*bels • came clumping on his short , leg he was admitted as welL Still there was no embracing o r Hitler as of a brother coming home at last. It is, indeed, the cuBtom -in heaven to embrace all the newcomers whatever their position on earth had been. Even men who "had been hanged were so pleasantly suprised by these brotherly 'manifestations t h a t they were glad to have been hanged..-" ':..- - "' ' "Oh, hanging was the best thing that ever happened to me," exclaimed many a hanged man as lie delighted in the friendliness of

But Hitler stood unattended at the threshold of heaven. Even -the numerous Nazis who had died for him "had no Heils for their former Fuehrer, though he addressed them with gutteral commands: It was even the more painful to him that some of them laughed at h i m . (I am not speaking as one who approves of all this,.for I am really one who believes that in "heaven even' Hitler and Coughlin " should be embraced and kissed. I am merely reporting what I heard.) In, short, uobody liked Hitler. All the Czecho-Slovakians remembered the humiliation their nelf-respect had suffered at his hands. The Austrians recalled what a joyous people they were until he cam back to Austria. SpaniBh children hadn't 'forgotten even in the' everlasting 'sunlight of the celestial, gardens the horror of bomb raids that had killed them. (Some of them had bedn iilled "by Nazi bombers in rehearsal for even bigger slaughters.) --In .fact, a little girl who had '. r treen torn asunder by a bomb tembarrassed l i m by asking, "Are yon really the one-that did i t ? " "Ah, myr dear child," he re~ pliedv"we were only practicing/' Englishmen a n d Frenchmen •*ere mindful of the dreadful fears that darkened their days on earth on his- account. To be an Englishman or a Frenchman had been a matter of living by the day, for nobody could see as far a s tomorrow; except that against tomorrow one must get his gas mask ready, or one must see to it that the door to the underground : shelter was open, since tomorr'ow one might need it. (Englishmen and, Frenchmen had been -glad to escape to heavehfrom all this.) ..Americans knew him- as .the one whose existence in the world had put an end to the happy security Americans always had felt before. Until his time Americans liad had nothing to fear except '. poverty and hunger and the breadline and going on relief. Between the two oceans they felt safe at least from sudden death by bombs- their democratic way of life, which while far from perfect still was the best in the world,, was safe . . . The Jews in heaven (German Jews, American Jews, English Jews; all varieties of Jews) trembled when it became known that Hitler had arrived. Must heaven, too, have him? Was there no escape from him? Death had been BO good to them until now. - Death had delivered many of them from concentration camps. Death Jiad reunited families he • had dispersed. In fact, all heaven treinblad and Hitler stood deserted at the thres'hold. (I am not mentioning this in gloating spirit. No! I am a man who believes that in heaven bygones should be bygones. I am only the reporter faithfully giving what he has heard.) Now, as everybody knows, there are • mansions for everyone . in heaven. Biff mansions in which the brethren dwell together in peace. As is quite natural Eng* lishmen. like to dwell with EUKlishmen, Germans with Germans, Frenchmen with Frenchmen, Jews with Jews. Yet there is no hostility between these groups which mis together socially, as is only proper in heaven. When it came time for the angels to find a house for Hitler the tenants in all the mansions were afraid to have him in any of their houses. "We remember him . We're afraid . . . We remember the pain . . . We're afraid . . . We remember our dread of tomorrow which was always so dark . , We're afraid." The angels who are ever meticulous to preserve the happine3s
of heaven saw there was nothing
to do b u t to give Hitler a mansion to himself on the edge of .heaven. Where the winds meet at • the outer bastions of' heaven there stood Hitler's mansion. He •was alone in the vast immensity of his house. "Yet there was one in heaven who pitied him . . . •'He's so lorialy and I shall go to live with him (Continued on page 8.)

Pontiff Had Been Openly Opposed by Nazis
HAD SCORED RACISM Believe Pius XII Will Continue Policy of Predecessor "Vatican City (J'EA) -—A heavy blow was dealt to the forces of totalitarianism and racism when Eugenlo Cardinal Pacelli, Cardinal-Camerlengo and Papal Secretary of State under t h e late Pope Piux XI, was chosen as Pope in one of the quickest papal elections in history. The 262nd Pope, whose election had been openly opposed by the German press as t h e " h o p e of the People's Front and the Jews," took the name of Pope Piux XII — indicating that he would follow in the footsteps of the late Pontiff, who openly denounced persecution and racial doctrine. Pope Pius XH is known to be even more hostile to Nazism than was his predecessor. Der Angriff, organ of Reichsminister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels, warned on Feb. 22 that "Cardinal Pacelli's policy wonld lead to a crusade against the totalitarian states" and declared that if he was elected the anti-Nazi cardinals, Verdier of Paris and Mundelein of Chicago" will return home victorious." * Responsible For Policy I t is the general belief that Cardinal Pacelli. as Secretary of State, was largely responsible for the "Vatican's strong attitude against Nazism and racialism. His views on current persecution, were made clears in an address to the Bucharistic Congress in Budapest last year. "Where how," lie asked, ^'are -Herod and Pilate and Nero and Diocletian and Julian the Apostate, first century persecutors all? Ashes and dust are these enemies of Christianity! Ashes and dust and all that they^ coveted, pursned and perhaps for a, brief instant savored of earthly power and glory. The same inexorable law of human frailty that overtook them will hold good for their cognizant disciples and their incognizant emulators — will lay them low and will reduce to dust everything that does not respect the law of fundamental harmony between the natural order fo things and the supernatural order." German Reaction The German press did no't attack the election, as expected, but in a recent pamphlet issued by the official Nazi ' publishing' house it was state that Cardinal Pacelli had used his influence to favor, "an implacable struggle against National Socialism." The pamphlet said that "Pacelli is responsible for the sharp attitude of the Vatican against the Rome-Berlin (Continued on page 8.)
OR. MOSES GASTER, SEPHARDIG LEADER, DEAD IN ENGLAND London (JTA) — Dr. Moses Gaster, retired chief rabbi of the Sephardic Community of Britain and a famous scholar, died this week at the age of 82. "Hacham" (Chief Rabbi) Gaster was known as "the grand old man of English Jewry." Born in Rumania, he was expelled from his native land in 1S85 for leading a protest movement against persecution of Jews. He settled in England and later rejected an offer of the Bucharest government to return to Rumania. However, he complied with a request of the Rumanian government to write a report on the British educational system, which was accepted as the basis of education in that country. In England, Dr. Gaster lectured at Oxford university and for many years played a leading part in Jewish secular and religious life. In later years, although almost completely blind and in poor health, he remained intellectually alert and took a close interest in Jewish affairs. In 1934, he created a stir by suggesting a League of Nations loan to finance wholesale emigration of Jews from Europe to America and Africa. Later developments proved his prediction that a large part of the Jews of Europe would have to leave. Dr. Gaster was associated with Dr. Tlieodor Herzl, founder of political Zionism, and was vicepresident of the first three Zionist Congresses. During:-the World War he was prominent in the negotiations leading up to the issuance of the Balfour Declaration by the British government. An enthusiastic adherent of the Hebrew language, he was responsible for the making of mechanical adjustments in the typewriter that made possibe tlbe marketing of the first Hebrew typewriter. He is survived by-his wife, seven eons 'and six daughters.

Establishment of Suggested Arab State Not Definite INVITE JEWISH PLAN
Arabs Claim Cabinet Had Approved Proposal for State By VICTOR M. MEJJSTOCK Chief of J. T. A. Foreign Service London (JTA) — A threatened breakdown in the Anglo-Jewish talks was averted when members of the British delegation and the political department of the Jewish Agency met at the St. James Palace and explored the possibilities of continuing the talks on a new basis. Colonial Secretary Mac Donald and Foreign Undersecretary Butler reaffirmed assurances given the delegation by Prime Minister Chamberlain that the Government was not committed to the suggestion for establishment of » Palestine state and invited the Jews to put forward their t>wn suggestions as a basis for further talks. The Jew, "however, intimated that they preferred to have new suggestions come from the Government. The Jews made clear their refusal to consider the previous suggestions and said that this was not the time for a final solution of the Palestine question, which, they hold, must result from _ a gradual evolutionary process over a period of the next ten to fifteen years. They stressed the belief that the Palestine mandate must continue and the solution of the question must come within the mandate's framework. Resume Meeting The British and the Jews met Monday evening in an effort to find a basis for discussion which would permit resumption of the formal sessions of the conference. The situation thus is that after a month.of discussions the AngloJewish .talks are back where they started from, recommencing from a new beginning, if the talks continue they are likely to be conducted only by the Jewish Agency Executive since the Jewish conferehce committee is dispersing. M. M. Ussisshkin, chairman of the., ^Zionist General Council, left for Palestine. Chamberlain was understood to have assured a delegation comprising Dr. Chaim Weizmann, Dr. Wise and David Ben Gurion, that they had drawn incorrect conclusions from the brief and incomplete suggestions put before them, and he generally repeated the arguments used by MacDonald when he met the Jewish leaders in private and sought to induce them to resume formal discussions on the basis of the British proposals. Resumption of even, informal talks is taken in well informed circles to indicate that the Government -was not committed to any plan yet submitted to either the Arab or Jewish delegation. Arab circles declared, however, that the plan to establish an independent state had been approved by some members of the British Cabinet, in addition to the British negotiators. During' the (Continued on page 8.)
BAN ON BARTER WITH REICH ASKED New York (JTA) — A conference of 950 delegates representing more than 700 organizations in the metropolitan area under the auspices of the Joint Boycott Council at the Hotel Astor recorded its opposition to "any barter or exchange scheme that may be projected to facilitate a flood of Nazi-made merchandise into this country." It also called upon tbe government to abrogate the cotton barter scheme "perpetrated by the Nazis in contravention of Section 303 of the Tariff Act" and to impose countervailing duties on all o u c h subsidized merchandise which "has and is being dumped on our shores. by the Nazi government." Tbe conference backed the council's plan to extend the boycott into Latin America in order to meet the Nazi trade menace in those countries. It also went on record as opposing "any plan which would violate the Nazi boycott and would make of the refugees export agents for the Nazi regime."

The Betrayal The reported shameless betrayal of Jewish aspirations in Palestine marks another black paragraph in a rather shady chapter of British diplomatic history. Arab terrorism has been rewarded. Eebellion and lawlessness have been the victor. Jewish loyalty and restraint is penalized by the crushing decision of the British colonial office to make Palestine an independent Arab state unless a satisfactory Jewish'plan is offered. Might has asserted itself and gives truth to the oft-repeated charge that Britain is swayed by arms. "While we denounce the methods of a Hitler and Mussolini, we become skeptical of our own dependence on what are evidently out-moded ideals, for those malignedTmethods of the dictators now appear to'constitute the only language that impresses its meaning upon the statesmen of Downing street. For twenty-two years Jews, believing in the promises of Great Britain, have endeavored to rebuild broken lives in the one place in which they had faith, Palestine. Huge sums of money have been invested. Modern health practices introduced and Palestine alone among Arab countries has a healthy Arab population. Here a new civilization was being built, not on the ruins of an old one, but witfj the assistance of the powerful spiritual forces that made the ancient Land of Israel'truly a land of milk and honey. The rebellion on the part of the Grand Mufti arid his bedouin followers has not had popular support. It was inspired by a man, notorious for his agitation, and financed by the agents of Hitler and Mussolini. The Jews did not bear the brant of the terror, but Arabs and British fell before tie avenging guns. Prominent Arabs were not safe on the streets of Jerusalem because if their contributions to the Mufti's cause were not sufficient, or if their zeal was not convincing-, the terrorist's bullet would count them victim. Many Arab leaders fled from the Arab cities and villages to the Jewish settlements and to the Jewish city of Tel Aviv. Britain is motivated by the consideration of an impending crisis in the Mediterranean. "Within the next few months, it is now generally feared, France and England will be faced with the growing, unceasing demands of Italy and perhaps Germany and Japan. The time is ripe for the annual spring diplomatic maneuvers of the totalitarian. Palestine, strategically situated, is of primary importance to Great Britain. A peaceful Palestine is essential at this time for the proper maintenance of British lines of communication with the far eastern possessions. Idealistic concepts, rarely if ever recognized by Britain's ruling class, are easily thrown to the wind and justified even though they have robbed millions of homeless and persecuted of hope. « Yet in the face of the present crisis, it is still difficult to understand Britain's complete capitulation to the Arab, desires. By he> magnanimity and concessions-she-has given tfre impression of weakness and the Arabs are no longer satisfied with the terms, terms for which they had not dared to ask. Britain has in time of stress turned, like the Fascist nations, from its solemn obligations. The last word remains to be said. There can be no permanence in a decision reached without justice. The Jewish people will not abandon, their restraint, they will not adopt the methods of their enemies. • For two thousand years the longing for Zion has existed. More bitter disappointments have been swallowed. Yet today the Jews have laid the foundation stone for a new and greater Judaism. A Jewish community, enthusiastic, exists and determined they will not be halted in their-work.

Gems of the Bible and Talmud By Dr. Philip S&er
A new Pope will be crowned on Sunday. The Catholic press is surprised and not a little pleased by the interest shown in the new successor to the throne of St. Peter. It is true the Pope is a Catholic dignitary, now a spiritual rather than temporaL ruler. But to the non-Catholic world he represents a great moral force. In times so critical a Pope not measuring up to the dignity of his office and the expectations of a morallyinclined world, could be a tragedy not only to his own followers but to those who are not Catholics. .. In the selection of Cardinal Pacelli, it is believed a more than unusual personage occupies the place of dignity. Wellversed in diplomacy^ widely-traveled, his benign countenance reflects the cares that have been thrust-uponliinu The Jews know the new Pope as a man who has challenged in no -uncertain terms the "superstitions of blood and race." As Secretary of State, much of what has been said and done regarding the stand of the Vatican toward German and Italian racialism and persecution, has certainly originated with him. There is great significance in his taking the name of his successor, for perhaps it means the continuation of what has, in most instances been a wise and intelligent policy. • Courage and wisdom at this critical date means a strengthening not only of the Catholic church, but of the morale of the world/ In a world of hatred, the sympathetic words of the late Pius XI gave new hope to the world's oppressed. We do not doubt that Pope Pius X E will be as encouraging a voice as his predecessor. •

By DR. THEODORE N. LEWIS Rabbi, Mount Sinai Jemple, Sioux Qty; "DATS OF OUR YEARS,", BY PIERRE VAN PASSEN. HELLMAN-CURIi, INC., NEW YORK CITY. 504 PAGES. In the course ot this stirring and noble work, the author recalls a sad a n d unf orgetable event that took place in his native Holland during the sixteenth century, when the Spanish armies conquered his land and established the dreaded Inquisition. An early victim was a certain Kales, of independent mind and character. His •widow placed some of the ashes of her husband's body in a sachet, fastened it to the neck of her son, Thyl, and charged him as follows: "Whenever or •wherever in this world there is injustice or a wrong committed, these ashes -will beat on your heart and you will speak out without fear even at the danger of death, for all those who are reviled and oppressed for their conscience sake." Pierre van Passen, * son of Holland, has been conspiciously and unreservedly faithful to this moral charge. His "Days of Our Years" is not only a comprehensive and revealing panorama of the last three decades, but also a magnificent and overwhelming defense* of the "reviled and the oppressed" of all lands, races and creeds. After an uneventful but formative youth in the Netherlands, adversity drove the author and his family to Canada, where'he soon found himself, by the Irresistible force of. popular pressure, in the Canadian army. Like thousands ot other "heroes" he hunted vainly for work after the war. By accident, he hit upon journalism, and within two short years he became European correspondent for the Evening World, with headquarters In Paris. From that day to this he has been the peripatetic journalist, witnessing and reportIng major world events in all parts of the world, passing Judgment upon affairs and personalities, and observing keenly and accurately the ways of international politics. The reader will find in "Parisian Days," a brilliant portrayal ot the European scene immediately after the war, and of the forces and personalities which practically assured the triumph of Fascism. MoBt revelatory are the author's personal encounters with some of the keymen of Europe, with Mussolini, with Hitler, Clemenceau, Laval, Leon Blum, and a host of others . over whom he passes discerning and forthright opinions. Also significant are his personal experiences in the lands he reports on. We obtain a shocking picture of the perpetual intrigue going on behind the scenes. The ruthless exposure of this game should teach wisdom to the friends of democracy and of liberalism. The fascinating chapter on Africa, which is still a land of mystery, constitutes a scathing indictment of the "civilization" which the white man has brought to the continent and to the simple primitive folk who inhabit it. "Everything In Africa is done with the aid of whips," not excluding the imposition, of slavery. Untold millions, innocent of all wrong doing, are helpless victims ot the greed and rapacity of the white man. The blackest record Is that of Italy in her efforts to subjugate Libya, where the natives are so resperate that they risk being shot in order to escape to French territory. His concluding sentence, "greed is turning a continent into a world of blood and tears," is a rebuke to our religion, morals and civilization. "Ethiopian Interlude" describes vividly the rape of Ethiopia which the author witnessed from its very inception down to its tragic end. Little love is wasted on Selassie, a tyrant who treated unmercifully those whom he found disloyal, or suspected of disloyalty. Neither is any defense offered for the religion, culture, and life of the people, primitive and backward. However, this does
Mussolini.. The natives made one fatal error. They should not have met their superior opponents In open battle, but resorted to guerrila warfare at which they were .expert. The conquest of Ethiopia with the silent and secret approval of the democracies, is a crime •which history will neither forgive nor ever forget. The author rises to the peak ot literary eloquence, and moral Indignation in his chapter on Palestine and the Jew entitled "After Seven Centuries." He first pays moving tribute to the unprecedented, -miraculous, achievements, material as well as spiritual, ot the Jews, in reclaiming a neglected and barren Boil and In bringing about the rebirth of the ancient and glorious Hebraic tradition. He then proceeds to expose British treachery and duplicity, as no one has ever dared do before. He was in Palestine during the riots of 1929 — for which he blames the British and their puppet, the Mufti, whose interview with him, reported in detail, is exceptionally significant. It is beyond doubt British determination to sabotage the Jewish National home by all means, the foulest if necessary, to encourage the Arab chieftains to harass the Jew, to embroil the country in civil war, eo as to create the impression before world public opinion that the Jew and the Arab simply cannot cooperate, that the mandate is contradictory and unworkable. The Jews will, of .course, be deeply outraged a£ such startling and plain spoken revelations,, as will the world, at least that portion of It that still has a conscience. Yet they should serve a beneficent purpose in compelling us to strengthen our forces and resolution in battling British opposition and sabotage. We may rest assured that with the ultimate triumph of the democratic forces, the Chamberlain chain of betrayals will be rectified — and the Jew will be permitted to rebuild Palestine — and the Balfour Declaration will be fulfilled. An illuminating example ot the .bigoted opposition of the Jewish aristocracy to Palestine is revealed by the author when he reports-that the New York World, whose accredited correspondent he was, eliminated a statement from a dispatch in which he predicted a great future for the citrus industry in Palestine, because Louis Marshall maintained that Palestine was incapable of such a development. Today, it Is the second largest exporter of citrus in the world. The final chapter in the book, "L Infame," graphically portrays the incredible betrayal ot republican and democratic Spain to tha devouring and brutal forces of Fascism. The author speaks here as throughout the volume from personal and intimate knowledge, and his overwhelming indictment of the Church, the aristocracy and the military ol Spain remains unanswerable. The damnable strategy of Chamberlain and his secret, treasonable, efforts to make democracy weaker and Fascism stronger is analyzed with a ruthlessness a n d ' a heartrending frankness that leaves the genuine liberal exclaiming, "How long, oh Lord, how long?" The fact that civilization is literally collapsing points to a God, and an inexorable moral law. We have flouted, violated and ridiculed it, and we will pay an awful price for our folly and wickedness. This uncompromising insistence upon morality, truth, justice, and honor, renders "Days of Our Years" not only memorable, but timeless. It is more than an authentic record of contemporary international life. It is a bitter protest against the barbarism of our day and age coming from the depths of the heart of a man, who Is Godintoxicated, in the truest sense of the term.
Thus the headlines read, telling the story of human gallantry in an unhappy hour. Actual sacrifice is being made by people with generous hearts so that others may be relieved of intense, unnecessary suffering. While it may not entail tremendous sacrifice on the part of a Smith college girl to forego one meal when others are foregoing many, it is a test of willpower and certainly a noble gesture that bears following. For most garment workers to give up one day's wages is charity at its sublimest. ( "Within the next few weeks, Omaha Jewry will have its opportunity to do its part by those less fortunate, the dispossessed of many lands. If we have any sense of responsibility to our fellow Jews, if we are not Uriah Heeps and heartless pindipennies, we must prepare to sacrifice to the utmost. Ours are comfortable homes. Ours is substantial food— and usually more than enough for our needs. Our evenings cau be spent as we desire—and not in constant fear of humiliation and perhaps worst.

BIBLE Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye. Neither desire thou his dainties. Apply thy heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge. Buy the truth and sell it not; also wisdom and instruction and understanding. My son, give me thy heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways. TALMUD Rabbi Juda said in the name of Rob: "A leader who imposes extraordinary fear upon the community in order to protect his leadership will never have a scholarly son." (Because his children, observing his conduct, will despite him and the education which •was instrumental to his leadership.) Rabbi Jochanan said:' "Whoever studies the Torah but does not teach it to others is likened unto a myrtle in the desert from which no one enjoys any benefit." Our rabbis were taught: "Jephthah was in his own generation like Samuel in his. Infer from this that even the most worthless of worthless men it once elected a leader should be respected as the highest of the nobility." Happy is the generation in which the leaders listen to their followers, because of this example the disciples consider it so much the more their duty to heed the teachings of the leaders.

427 JEWS EXPELLED FROM DANZIG CITY Danzig (JTA) — In trucks, taxis and busses, 4 27 expelled Danzig Jews crossed Germany bound for an unknown destination. The Jews were piled Into the vehicles by Danzig police and driven across the border. Expulsion of the Jews had originally beein slated for January and was postponed several times reportedly because arrangements for their transportation from aa Italian port had fallen through. Two British journalists, Miss Ruby Hobling of the Reuters News Agency-and Vaughan Jones, Berlin corespondent of the Daily Express, were arrested while watching the loading but were later released. Constanza, Rumania (JTA)—A group of 427 Jews expelled from Danzig arrived here and were put on b o a r d a Palestine-bound

ASK EMIGRATION FROM RUMANIA By BORIS SMOLAR (Boris Smolar is raakine a survey of the Jewish situation In Central- anil Eastern Europe. Below are his dispatches from Bucharest and Budapest.) Bucharest (JTA) — A member of the Cabinet has told this correspondent that the Government plans to establish "ghetto representation" for Rumania's 900,000 Jews as a substitute for the political rights of which they have been deprived, including the right to elect or be elected to Parliament. This right Is now accorded only to members of the National Regeneration Party, into which the Jews are the only minority group not admitted. He said the Government will soon start negotiations with Jewish leaders designed to give the Jewish population an opportunity of actively participating in all measures concerning solution of the Jewish problem as well as in defining the legal rights of Jews who are recognized as Rumanian citizens. Whether the Jewish leaders will accept such representation, which would relegate Jews to the category of second-class citizens, is a 'question involving much negotiation between the Jews and the Government. Revoke Licenses Meanwhile, revocation of liquor licenses held by Jewish restaurants, cafes and bars continues unabated,' the official <gazette daily publishing new lists. It is estimated that, to date 1,500 licenses held by Jews have been cancelled. All establishments whose licenses have been revoked must be liquidated within a fortnight. The licenses of 20 Jewish wholesalers were restored following intervention by a delegation ot Rumanian vineyard owners with the authorities. Considerable bitterness exists among the Jews over the fact that while Jews who are Rumanian citizens have been deprived of their licenses. Greeks, Armenians and other aliens have not been' interfered with, indicating that the measures are directed solely against the Jews. joint Action Establishment of a Joint policy on Jewish emigration is being sought by Foreign Minister Grigoire Gafencu during^ Warsaw conversations on questions affecting Rumania and **oland in the light of the present international situation. Gafencu assumedly will seek joint pressure on the Intergovernmental Refugee Committee to include in its scope of activity a study of the question ot organized Jewish emigration from Rumania and Poland. Some official approach in this connection has also been made by Government leaders in Bucharest to United States Minister Franklin Mott Gunther, since the intergovernmental body is considered the prodnct of President Roosevelt's initiative. Meanwhile, the Black Sea port
300 Polish Jewish families have been given a week's notice ' to leave the country. Another 200 families of Yugoslavian and Rumanian Jews were served with notices to leave Munkacs within a fortnight. . Almost all the Jews ordered expelled have lived in Munkacs for many years and all the I.- children were born there. Among those ordered to leave is the city's Chief Rabbi. Foreign Jews living in other sections of the ceded territory are also affected by the expulsion campaign. Of an estimated 80,000 Jews residing in the territory, by the authorities declare that at least 4,000 families must leave as foreigners, chiefly Poles, Rumanians and Yugoslavians. Meanwhile, the authorities have begun a roundup of German Jews, of whom more than 50 were arrested In one day in Budapest alone. Their German passports being valid, the authorities theaten to deport them to Germany unless the Budapest Jewish Community agrees to build special barracks for them and to maintain them at the community's expense. Justice Minister Andreas Tasnadi-Nagy was scheduled to report to the Lower House on his bill "to limit Jewish participation in the cultural and economic life" of Hungary. If the measure is adopted, the Hungarian Jews will be placed in a situation similar to that ot the Jews in Germany and Italy. In addition to limiting Jews to seven per cent participation ia the nation's economic and cultural life, the bill, which was drafted by the Justice Minister, provides for revision of naturalizations and authorizes the Government to introduce measures for enforced Jewish emigration. In his presentation to Parliament, the Justice Minister declared that the Jewish question could not be solved by Internal measures alone since neighboring countries were directly- affected by the above-listed provisions.

NEW ARRIVALS
of Constanza resembles a refugee
camp, with hundreds of young Jews and Jewesses f o r m ing queues in front of travel offices. Lured by agents of racketeering shipping companies, hundreds drift to Constanza with the. hope of finding means to emigrate and find themselves penniless and stranded after paying their transportation fares. Faced with the problem of hundreds of hungry and desperate Jewish youths, the Constanza Jewish Community Is warning Jews not to be misled by false emigration propaganda. Mass Colonization Salient points in the Government's policy on Jews, Including emigration of many thousands who have already been deprived of their citizenship or will be by March 31, were outlined to this correspondent, by a high Government official. He said (1) the Government will permit emigrating Jews to transfer to the country of Immigration their capital and property, despite existing currency regulations; (2) he Government has worked out in collaboration with another power a plan for mass colonization of a territory outside of Palestine, with at least S.000 Jews to be settled in the . first year. (The other power is assumed to be Poland.) Jewish leaders will be consulted on all emigration activities and machinery will be set up by the Government to intensify emigration and to establish conditions of transfer of property, the official revealed in the course of an. interview. Denationalized Jews who are unable to emigrate, he said, will be regarded as "stateless" and will not be permitted to work or to engage in trades or professions and will have to be supported by the 750,000 Jews whose citizenship has not been revoked. Jews whose citizenship is not withdrawn, the official declared, will be accorded liberal treatment for "tactical reasons," but will not be admitted to the tolitarian National Regeneration Party and to certain professions for several years. New anti-Jewish economic measures might be expected, he added, since the Jews are considered economically too strong. "Anti-Semitism 3s over," the official added, "but the Jewish question still exists in Rumania and will be solved ia a legal, logical manner in the interests of the country as well as Jews recognized as citizens. Violence will not be tolerated under any circumstances."
