Rift Among CABINET SHIFT Reveal Nazi Groups ih\J» S. MAY AFFECT WHITE PAPER Lord Lloyd Appointed as Npw-Colonial Secretary London (JTA — The Cabinet reconstruction will have a marked effect on the British Government's Palestine policy, it was be. lleved. The, Government hitherto has been committed to the White Paper of 1030, which calls for eventual establishment of an independent Palestine state with the Jews as a one-third minority.

Reasons for the expected change In policy are Prime Minister Winston Churchill's past opposition to the White Paper, the inclusion in the new Government of Laborites, Liberals a n d Conservative element such as the pro-Zionist ex-Colonial Secretary Leopold A. Amery, and the departure from the Colonial Office of Malcolm MacDonald.

Former Governor of Bombay Appointment of Lord Lloyd as Colonial Secretary was announced. Lord Lloyd, who is 61, was Governor of Bombay from 1919 to 1923 and High Commissioner of Egypt from 1925 to 1929, having succeeded Lord Allenby in the latter post. In October, 1938, Lord Lloyd proposed in the L o n d o n Chronicle that a permanent Arab majority be guaranteed in Palestine. He visited Palestine in 1937 and during his stay interviewed David Ben-Gurlon, chairman of the Jerusalem Executive of the Jewish Agency for Palestine, and other leaders.

Because of the political situation, Dr. Chaim Weizmann, president of the Jewish Agency, has postponed his scheduled departure for New York, it was learned, but he has not abandoned plans for the trip entirely.

Labor Support Bournemouth, England (JTA) — The Labor Party conference received a resolution on Palestine, reaffirming the L a b o r Party's "traditional support" of the Jewish national home policy, introduced by tiro Labor Zionist Organization. It expressed conviction that this policy provides the basis for increasing peaceful cooperation between Jews and Arabs.

Demanding that the Jewish people should be allowed to make the most of Palestine's absorptive capacity, the resolution reaffirms last year's resolution condemning the British policy on Palestine and endorses the Labor parliamentary group's criticism of the P a 1 o a t i n e land restrictions. It urges the Labor parliamentarians to continue their efforts for abolition of the White Paper policy.

Jewish peace aims, including restoration of Jewish rights in Germany and Eastern Europe and continued development of t h e Jewish - national home in Palestine, are set forth in a memorandum. "The War and' the Jewish People," submitted to the conference by. the l a b o r i t e Zionist3 (Poale Zioh.) . . . .

Offer Hitler $3,000 To Return Replica • Of Liberty Bell Harrisburg, Pa. (WNS) — An offer of $3,000 was m a d e to* Adolf Hitler by the Pennsylvania World's Pair Commission for the return of a replica of America's Liberty Bell, donated to Czechoslovakia w h e n that country became a republic. ' ....

Richard P. Brown, State Secretary of Commerce and chairman of the Fair Commission, cabled Hitler: "We understand' all bronze articles are being melted down and Blnce we have use for this valuable bell we offer $3,000 If delivered to New York- in good condl11 o n for use In Pennsylvania's building at World's Fair."

New York (WNS) — Recent reports that internal .dissension has split the ranks of the GermanAmerican Bund w e r e confirmed here with the announcement that an affidavit, charging that high officials of the Nazi Bund had abandoned Fritz Kuhn and "misled" the membership; has been filed in Bronx Supreme Court.

The affidavit, filed by Frederick William Yockel, former treasurer of the Bronx unit of the Bund, accused the Bund officials of misleading Bund members into believing that t h e i r donations would make possible a prompt appeal for Kuhn, now serving a prison term for embezzling the organization's funds.

Recently, factional d i s p u t e s rocked the Nazi Bund. Many officials were ousted and others red u c e d to ordinary membership. Bikur Choli Perfor; Dissident groups have held their own meetings. . 19

gium London (WNS) — The fate of more than 207,000 Jews, including 45,000 Jewish refugees from Greater Germany, hung in t h e balance as Belgium and Holland, supported by Allied airplanes and troops, dug in to resist the Nazi invasion.

At least 3,000 Jews, including several hundred refugees f r o m Nazi Germany, fell into the hands of the Nazis when the German army s w e p t into Luxemburg, which has a standing army of 700.

Unlike the Jews in the Scandinavian countries who were taken by surprise when the German army invaded Denmark and Norway, the Jews of the Low countries had expected the German Invasion and remained calm. The Jewish population in both Holland and Belgium is centered in the big cities, which have been (Continued on page 12.)

Soeiety Editor MORRIS AIZENBERG—Sioux City Correspondent

A New Sore Spot Increasing tension in the Mediterranean points to the sad, but undeniable conclusion, that It Will not be long before serious difficulties occur in that region. Constantly growing troop and naval concentrations by Italy, France and Britain, indicate that trouble is expected momentarily. A vicious anti-Allies press campaign adds to the general . feeling of uneasiness.

Withdrawal of the allied troops from Norway may be directly traceable to the fear the war is soon to break out with unprecedented violence in the Mediterranean, a region of greater importance to Great Britain than any part of the Scandinavian penninsula.

Trouble in the Mediterranean would have serious consequences in Palestine. It would draw the Mandate into the very theater of war since it Js of great strategic importance at this time. Alleady large detachments of Australian troops have been quartered in Palestine and in Syria a Btill larger contingent of French troops under General , [Weygand await the first sign of trouble, Britain has cautiously planned for a Mediter* ranean war. Malta has been virtually deserted as ; a naval base because of its proximity to Sicily and ' Its vulnerability from the air. Alexandria has been outfitted to provide .safe harbor for* the British Mediterranean fleet.

A strong show of power may discourage any adventures on the part of II Duce, but it is evident that the Norwegian fiasco has awakened new ambitions In the heart of the Italian dictator. One news commentator would have us believe that only the Intervention of American authorities prevented the blow last week; But the purpose of American intervention was not made clear.

Whatever happens and whenever, it becomes dear that this is no phoney war as some wisacres claimed. It also becomes clearer that this is to be no easy victory for the allies, but there is no reason as yet for those who sympathize with their aims to feel discouraged. Germany has been forced to take the offensive on all occasions and .this was the avowed British strategy at the very outbreak of the war. '

Professor Finkelstein's Appointment

As successor to the late Dr. Cyrus Adler, the board of directors of the Jewish Theological Seminary has named Professor Louis Pinkelstein, at present the Seminary's provost. . Appointment of Professor Pinkelstein assures" t h a t the distinguished tradition of the Seminary will continue, for his three predecessors have, all been. men of outstanding ability and scholarliness.

Dr. Sabato Morals, the institution's first president; Dr. Solomon Schechter, and Dr. Adler—their names have been engraved upon the tablets of American Jewish learning. And already Professor Finkelstein has himself gained an enviable reputation as a man of letters.

Professor Finkelstein is well-known here in Omaha, having been. the guest of the local Conservative community on several occasions. Each vi3lt has been remembered, for he awakened new feeling for Judaism and its tenets.

He has a long and distinguished record of scholarship, too long to be repeated here. His two best-known books, "The Pharisees" and "Akiba" have been widely acclaimed for they represent exceptional research and have been distinct contributions to Jewish letters.

It can.safely be prophesied that under the leadership of Professor Finkelstein, the Seminary will enter a new epoch and will clothe itself in •new glory. ,

Senator W. Warren Barber, Republican Sen'• ator from New Jersey, has become famous- as the Senate's outspoken champion of the American doctrine of religious freedom and tolerance. He has fought a courageous battle and has shown genuine desire to eradicate the latest manifestation of illwill, . Moved by events abroad, by the "fifth column" tactics of ;the Norwegian Nazis, Senator Barber has Introduced a bill ID the Senate to bar from the U. 8. mails such matter as tends to incite religious ftnd recial hatreds.

One can find no fault with so noble an intention, although there may be some doubt as to the . advisability of such action. The fear always exists that such a law will be utilized at future date to curb other views, once the precedent is there.

Americans are, and should be, jealous of their liberties.

It is to the interests of public safety that some measures be taken to curb the activities of the various 'hate' groups.

Foreign News Note The Jews in China

By Joe I. Sargon BDITOR'S NOTE: The Author «ft|ie following article, Joe I. Sargon, recently completed ft rownd-the-world trip that started from Bombay, where be is editor of the Jewish Tribune.

In the course of the last two years the Jewish population of China has increased by leaps and bounds and today it is estimated that there are more than 36,000 Jews in the country. Prior to this the largest number r e s i d e d fit Harbin — about 8-.000 — hut now pride of place goes to Shanghai, where it is estimated that there are more than 21,000, of whom 15,000 are recent refugee arrivals from Germany and Austria. Other l a r g e communities may be found in Tientsin a n d Mukden where they number 3,500 and 1,000 respectively.

The community in Shanghai is the oldest. It has been gradually growing in numbers. The earliest members of this community came from Iraq and India. They were engaged in the opium trade, then legal, and made fortunes. With the subsequent migration of Jews from Russia, their number was considerably enhanced, but they lived as two d i s t i n c t groups known as Sephardi and Ashkenail.

Shanghai Shanghai is divided into three parts — the French Concession which is governed by the French Consul General and Commission; the International S e t t l e m e n t •which I« controlled by the Municipal Council and the Consular body, and Greater Shanghai which is predominantly Chinese and now under Japanese occupation. Most of the Jews have always lived in the International Settlement.

I could not help but notice the tremendous difference since my last visit to Shanghai about 15 years ago. I was surprised to Gee th£ appalling state of the city.

There seemed to be so much need and poverty in a one-time flourishing city known as "The Paris of the East."

The ravages of war had 'left fearful marks a n d the masses seemed to be in a state of destitution and misery, their plight betas greatly aggravated by the increasing refugee problem. T h e elty is no longer as clean as it used to be and there is always a feeling of danger to life and security.

The Chinese dollar has depreciated considerably. It is now possible to get 16 Shanghai dollars.

While on the one hand there is a serious unemployment problem on the other hand living expenses iaVe soared.

Jewish Contribution The Jews of Shanghai h a v e made many important contributions to the development of that elty. They are actively engaged In banking, in industry and 6ther commercial enterprises. The fam-

There of our Kashruth laws and our is also a Hebrew School where Jewish boys and girls receive fine training on modern lines. The community is fortunate in having the services of the. Rev. Mendel Brown, who ably serves its spiritual and education requirement?.

Mr. Brown has been with the community for a number of years and much has been achieved under his guidance.

• No account of Shanghai Jewry would be^ complete without mention of ttfat exponent of traditional Judaism and Zionism, "Israel's Messenger," now in its 35 th year.

Many notable leaders in American Jewish life spoke to me in terms, of the highest praise when I was in the States of the services rendered by its founder-editor, N. E. B. Ezra. It is indeed gratifying to be able to record that the paper is being carried on with the same energy by his widow.

There are two papers also published in Shanghai which serve the Jewish community; these are printed in German and have been founded by newly arrived refugees. The Revisionists have a paper of their own which they print in English and Russian.

The Refugee Camp What was of the greatest Interest to me was my visit to the ref-

Torah. Hitlerism can never destroy us.

Hongkew Most of these c a m p s are in Hongkew, the Chinese area under Japanese control. Formerly they were warehouses, but these now have been placed at the disposal of the Refugee Committee by Sir Victor Sassoon, who pays regular visits. Prior to this the refugees lived on the streets and had to beg for food.

In some of these- camps could be seen the destruction wrought by bombing operations of the Japanese froia the air a b o u t two years ago. These camps look like barracks. They are kept neat and tidy and resemble small colonies.

They are provided with dormitories, bath-rooms, hospitals, dispensaries, k i t c h e n s , etc. The rooms are so large that there space for more than 190 beds. The services of fully-qualified doctors and trained nurses a r e always available. A recent addition is a confinement ward for expectant mothers. The visitor cannot help but feel impressed with the excellent sanitary conditions.

The educational needs of the children are also well cared for.

Schools are provided where more than 600 refugee children receive education.

Among the refugees there are a number of musicians and it has been found possible to form a fine orchestra. There are also a number of. engineers who have got together and have worked on different projects to improve these camps.

It is distressing to see the sad plight of these refugees but nonetheless they are glad to be away from Germany, from persecution, in spite of their uncertain future.

A few of them have been absorbed fa the life of the country but there are many who are unable to find any form of employment in a city teeming with thousands of Chinese refugees and so m u c h poverty.

And yet more Jewish refugees

continue to come from Greater Germany, but not in the same numbers as in previous y e a r s .

During the past two months thereu has been an average of 40 refu gees per month. The only country in the world that was open, to them has recently introduced restrictions. Tbey cannot now go to Shanghai unless they have a sum of moaey as required by the auth-. orities. T h o s e who are in the country are facing a great problem. The Sfa&Bgfaai Refugee Committee lias a formidable task before it and it looks for assistance from Jewries in other parts ©f the world.

U. P. Schedules Trip To Bryce Canyon O n e of the most interesting and unusual areas in America's scenic west is Bryce Canyon Na« tional park in southern Utah, one of five scenic wonders located near enough to each other to be covered conveniently by motor tours in a few days' time. It it reached by only the Union Pacific railroad's main line to Lund, Utah, from where large, modern buses take the traveler to Cedar City and then into the parks themselves.

Bryce Canyon National park it 5 5 square miles in size and has been under jurisdiction of the federal government since It waa first named a National Monument in 1923.

The "canyon," which in reality is a great horseshoe-shaped amphitheater three miles long and two miles wide, was named after Ebenezer Bryce, a Mormon pioneer who settled there In t h » early 70's. It is filled to t h e brim with a myriad of. fantastle figures cut through the pink and white limy sandstone of t h e Paunsaugunt Plateau.

Mobilizing Science For Europe's War

By Roman Slobodin Thousands of* eggs have been mobilized for the war by scientists of the Hebrew University at Jerusalem. . Ranked in trim platoons in a s h i n i n g incubator in the new Rothschild-Hadassah - University Health Center on Mount Scopus, Just north of the Holy City, they are being used to fight one of the great wartime plagues which it is feared the present conflict may unleash in Eastern Europe and the Levant, as did the last one.

A glass 'window" about half an Inch square has been inserted in the shell of each egg. Through these openings Dr. Manfred Aschner, Hebrew University bacterlolpgist, and .his co-workers, watch the development of t h e deadly Tirus of typhus fever, with which the eggs have been inoculated. < The virus grown In this medium is used to manufacture vaccine against typhus. It is the first time this technique, cheaper and simpler than other methods, has been used for manufacturing typhus vaccine.

It m a k e s Palestine and the Near East independent of European supplies — a highly important achievement, since one of the principal sources In the past was Weigel'a institute in Lwow, Poland, now in the hands of the SoTiets.

Science Mobilized Dr. Aschner's work is tylcal of w h a t is happening in scores of laboratories a n d studies at the mllllon-d o 11 a r American - built medical center and on the campus of Hebrew University, where Palestine's scientific brain trust has turned its attention to the problems the war has created for the Holy Land and neighboring Countries.

- Already, the eastern world is turning for help to these institutions, where the greatest aggregation of scholars and scientists in the Orient, many of them refugees from Nazi persecution, are exploring new scientific frontiers With the finest equipment in that part of the world.

• . Palestine Government departments consult t h e m ; inquiries have come from as-far away as Bombay, India, and the Turkish Government is preparing to send a scientist to observe new developments in the university's bacteriological' department. . A few doors away from Dr. Aschner's laboratory is another where Dr. Leo Olitzkl, termed by his colleagues one of the world's leading experts on typholdfever, la on the trail of a germ which has been killing hundreds of camels belonging to the Arabs around Gaza. Dr. Olitzki has developed clues indicating this is a strain of a type of paratyphoid which has hitherto only been known to attack human beings — thus uncovering the first clue to transmission of the disease between camels and men.

of which Palestine has a practically unlimited supply f r o m its oranges. In the test-tube, Dr. Leibowitz and Dr. Guggenheim have found, the vitamin neutralizes the poisons produced by many disease germs, including those of smallpox, diptherla and lockjaw, and even powerful inorganic poisons such as phenol a n d potassium cynanide. Application of this discovery to prevention and treatment of disease is another problem, but the possibility is at least suggested by the fact that diptherja is almost unknown among the orange-eating Inhabitants of Palestine.

These are only a few of the many contributions being made

by University scientists to wartime health protection. Along the economic front, too, striking achievements are being recorded by the Mount Scopus institution. Dr. Samuel Sambursky, mathematical physicist who attained wide renown a few years ago with his "shrinking atom" theory of the universe, has turned from contemplating the outer l i m i t s of space and the innermost secrets of the atom to the problem of purifying orange juice for storage.

Citrus Industry This is a matter of vital wartime concern to Palestine, whose major Industry, citrus fruit growing, has been brought to the brink of ruin by shrinkage of its market due to the war. The industry is desperately seeking by-product uses for the enormous surplus of unsold fruit. One possibility is the canning of the juice for sale bet w e e n seasons. No satisfactory method of sterilizing and preserving orange juice without ruining its flavor has yet been developed.

Dr. Sambursky is trying to do it by means of high-frequency sound waves.

Ultra-sonic waves—sound waves too shrill to be recorded by the human ear — have the property of killing living cells. By exposing the orange juice to t h e s e w a v e s , generated by vibrating quartz crystals, Dr. Sambursky has succeeded in killing the bacteria without destroying the complex essential oils and other substances which give. the juice Its flavor and aroma. The process is quick and inexpensive. He is developing apparatus to do the Work on a commercial scale.

Another fighter on the orange front is Dr.- Adolf Relfenberg, the university's soil expert, who devised a system for manufacturing alcohol from citrus peel. Since the war began, several citrus by-product factories have been estab-

lished in Palestine to manufacture among other things, a l c o h o l There is even a possibility of manufacturing h i g h e r alcohols and acetone, used as a base for explosives. Hebrew University scientists may yet provide for turning Palestine's surplus oranges into munitions for the Allies.

One of the essential commodlt i e s which is likely to become scarce in wartime is sugar. As a matter of fact, Palestine had a sugar panic during the first weeks of the war, not because of a rea shortage, but because of public apprehensions reinforced by memories of the last war. Dr. Andor P o d o r , professor of biochemistry, is ready with a method for extracting sugar from orange peel which would help relieve a shortage. Professor Fodor's simple and inexpensive process produces 330 pounds of a thick honey from a ton of peel.

In the university's biology department scientists are developing new methods for sustaining the populace as far as possible on the products of Palestine's soil reducing dependence on imports from overseas which are not only vulnerable In wartime, but which constitute a strain on the country's import-export balance, already heavily unfavorable because of the throttling of the citrus market.

Among the projects on whicl Dr. Michael Even-Ari, Dr. Michael Zohary and other university botanists are working, are the use of spineless cactus as forage for cattle, the growing of crops in salty soils, and the utilization of Palestine's wild plants.

They have published a catalo-

gue of wild plants used by the Arabs, many unused in Europe, and Dr. Even-Ari believes that among these are eoiue which may prove valuable in science and medicine.

Already they hae brought to the attention of Palestine's infant pharmaceutical industry a number of medical plants and herbs, such as salvia, peppermint, camomile and thyme, for which Europe formerly depended largely on German, Czechoslovakian and Polish sources.

A recital of all the contributions Hebrew University is making toward strengthening Palestine and her neighboring countries to face whatever trials the war may bring would be too long for a single article. This work is, of course, not a sudden growth since the beginning of the war; it is founded in the research which has been in progress at the university since its beginnings twenty years ago, for the benefit of the Jewish National H o m e, of Palestine, of the Near East and of humanity.

Dr. Max Hirsch, another defendant, was acquitted.

It was urged on behalf of the defendants before the M III t ary Court that the seized arms were intended exclusively for defense purposes iu the isolated settlement, f o r which 22 authorized rifles had been regarded as inadequate.
