On several occasions Jewish m e e t i n g s were addressed by Czecho-Slovafe statesmen, stressing the community of Jewish and Czecho-Slovak interests in t h e ^present struggle.

Although officially repudiating the anti-Semitic policy of the former Polish government, the new government tolerated the publication, first in France a n d later in London, of Polish papers with an outspoken anti- Jewish tendency.

LasIs! was succeeded in December by Professor Selig Brodetsky, f o r many years head of the London political department of the-,Jewish Agency for Palestine.

A Most Happy Year

m. : j§ilf\ -a .••pi

Coatribtitiosnis . The new and more -. enlightened attitude of the old Americans to th© new has^ revealed itself not only in the common social relations of our general life, but has also found expression in. the literary and artistic productions of our time.

American art and literature has found inspiration in the life, strivings- and hopes .of the .immigrants' and. the. immigrant, loo in his turn has not failed to'become artistically creative, with the vitality, freedom and 'grandeur of America as' the center and most stimulating force of his aesthetic and spiritual achievements. , It is now more than a deftade since'Allen Eaton has written'Ms "Immigrants' Gifts to'America."

Since then many volumes and innumerable magazine and newspaper articles have appeared in-' appreciation of. the immigrants' part in helping to build up and to increase the greatness of America. Official and civic leaders, no less than distinguished authors and ^writers, have testified to the industrial, civic and artistic contributions which immigrants have made to American life and social progress and there are on record the speeches of presidents, the utterances of cabinet officers, governors of states and mayors of many large cities paying tribute to the loyalty, industry and perseverance of the new American's.

Expressed in a hundred different ways, the new relationship be^ tween the older and newer Americans is translating itself in : spirit of forbearance and mutual goofi will that promises greater unification of all elements of oa population. That spirit, too,, has invested the worfe of naturalization and Americanization ."with new meaning and solemnity. ;.„ Naturalization, . once largely 'a matter of routine, is now being lifted to the dignity of a ceremony of dedication. New Citisens Day celebrations held throughout the country last year and to be repeated during the coming Spring. with the participation of ail those naturalized within the .year, consist of impressive exercises intended to stf%ss. the significance of citizenship and to-offer to the new citizens .an. opportunity of voicing ; their .aspirations '.and hopes in a'new land. • The spirit of fellowship and human warmth, which .has recently agiin been shown in connection with the arrival •'. to cur shores of

Installation Made Qtsickly and Neatly without Upsetting Your Household*

The panorama whicli spreads before a Jew as lie views the. world at the approach of this New Year, is one which illustrates in graphic style the simple^words our Rabbis, incorporated in the New Year liturgy.

"Who by fire, who by sword?" These words which needed so much imagination a few years ago to make their significance meaningful to us, now touch the heart of every Jew and make us conscious of the critical juncture at which we stand. "Writing at this tno- . xnent, trying to bring a message which should, strike a note of hope and give our people courage and forbearance is a task which even a Rabbi finds difficult.

These times have touched the most undaunted, , events have penetrated the best armored.

However, the true Rabbi can still find an answer in the wisdom of our sages. In this same prayer where the fate of man is outlined, the Rabbis also speak of the destinies of mankind. The Lord sits . in judgment, angels tremble, all the world is awed. Behind this striking picture and its allegory is an unbreakable _ faith which has stood .our people in good stead in times' of greatest sorrow. Behind it is the faith that the des* tinies of mankind are not in the hands of man. 'The hearts of kings and rulers are is the hand-of ths Lord.

He turns them as He wills!' This faith gave us strength - in days gone by, it can also strengthen our hands today.

Times, are* sad; .the road is filled with sorrow as . -we travel along the years. But if the aim is great and '- the purpose is a world of prophetic beauty; if the end is a world of justice, honesty, and freedom, then our hardships are worth the bearing. The God who leads, judges, 'and' dirests Destiny, will bring comfort to us too. ** ' * / .

On this Rosh Hashanah we must learn again to handle the weapon of our ancestors. We must handle _ spiritual courage,.boldness of the mind, and tie great • ' ••intellectual forces we have gathered during the thousands of years of our existence as a counter -weapon to ' the whip of slavemasters, to the sword and the fire.

When we learn this, otir power to resist will be thousand fold, our hope.for the suxcease of our sorrow infinitely strengthened.

Speaking in this spirit, we can say without fear to ourselves, to our people and to all the world: The Lord will help us end make this a happy year. .

Shovuos is a striking1 example of the fact that festivals, like other living things, can grow a n d develop, gathering about them new expressions of the sentiment of a people.

Originally, this d&y was of purely agricultural significance, a spring festival of gratitude for the wheat harvest, expressed by offering to God two loaves of bread baked from the first grain of the new crop. Its name, signifying "Feast of Weeks" is derived from the fact that its date is'.fixed by the counting of seven weeks from the first cutting of the barley crop, which occurs on the second day of Passover.

Jerusalem • (Paleor Agency) — TIic production of most kinds of vegetables of Jewish, farms has been increased during the past two years By 100 per cent, and in the case of severe! vegetables even by more, according to a statistical survey prepared hj the Economic Research Institute of the Jewish' Agency.

The following figures indicate ike increase in soiae of the more important vebetable crops: Tomatoes (193S) 1,038 tbns, (1940) 2,051 tons; potatoes (1938) 793 tons, (1940) 1,801 tons; carrots (1938) 498 tons, (1940) 1.017 tons; cauliflower (1938) 194 t o n s .

(1940) 525 tons; cabbage (193S) 378 tons, (1940) 934 t o n s ; cucumbers (1938) 74 tons, (1940) 328 tons. Other figures are proportionate.

Owing to the different climatic conditions prevailing in'the newly established-settlements,: it has been possible greatly to extend the time of vintage on Jewish farms. The highest figures were reached in the second half of July, when daily quantities of 40 tons of grapes were brought to the market. In the same period the Jew-

Morry Arncvieh,. wnose work at the plate last year was just as powerful as . Damns g's, this'season slumped, in a power dive. However, traded to the Ciney Bads by the Phils, it is-' with the 1980- N. L. Pennant winners that the kid has really begun to go places.

The trio mentioned above were all • en the All-Star'- gams played in St. Louis on July 7. Only Greenberg and Banning saw action, while Arnoviehsat on the bench. It wa3 Banning who drove in one of the four runs for the National leaguers with a r i n g i n g double.

Milt Gantenbein and Harry Eisenstadt are veterans but not really Varsity material as yet. ? Milt plays at third for the Philly A 3, while Harry' has been turning in a few neat tricks o:a the pitcher's mound.. Dolly Stark, the only rJewish umpire . in the b i g leagues, ^i as forced into retirement because or a serious leg ailment.

So much for the major league players. The minors are replete with Jewish baseball players—both the up and coming kind and those who have seen their best days. To mention but a handful of former major leaguers now in the smaller associations: G o o d y Rosen, Fred Siagton, Andy Cohen, Phil Weintraub and Buddy Meyer . » .

Front-office- s e n who have mads good.--' are Earry Grabiner, the brain3 and drive of. the C h i c a g o White Sox; George Weiss of the Yankees; Babe Hamburger of the Dodgers. P r e s y Bes.s1va2.3er of the Pittsburgh Pirates still remains as the only Jswish major' 1

Some of the athletes mentioned on our honor roll of track and field hold national as well as intercollegiate records. Some have created speed marks at the Garden, the Penn Relays, the •I.

He again made the headlines when he was shifted in a draniatie move from first base to the outfield, a move which, experts predict, will result in the Tigers bagging another pennant.

He leads the American league in that division as w e l l as in the number of doubles; and triples smashed into the outfield. In only one phase of the game has this long-legged bambino seemingly fallen short—the matter of home runs. His achievements ia this division of the game are ay no sieana as illustrious aa they were two years ago when he reached a mark of 58, only two short of the-record created • foy Babe Ruth.

Two Sesoltttioss Two republics, Argentina and. Uruguay, presented resolutions on a program for admitting refugee children.

Mexico alone spoke out for the "need of admitting some of the European • adults, as well. ' Since the conference adjourned, a report has appeared.that the Chamber- of Deputies in Peru ha* recommended an investigation of possibilities for admitting 5,000 child refugees.

'• •.

Mexico took a strong position in her resolution. She explicitly'"stated that she has not incurred any economic complications through the admission • of European refugees. "Whether Mexico is ready in the near future, to go beyond taking Spanish refugees, was not indicated ia her resolution.

Our government is ready to admit children from some European countries, if our s h i p s can be assured against all dangers by entering the ports of belligerent areas. But we have not taken any big step toward accepting any considerable number of .adults.

To the contrary, the procedure is being followed of admitting a. highly limited number of adults.

From time to time, the Latin American governments give hope that areas will be opened to settlement. But the hope vanishes quite quickly. It- may. be_ that a more favorable atmosphere may be- developed within the next five years. Surveys are being made of the facilities ox the several republics for establishing industries comparable to European industries that s u p p l i e d many of the articles needed by our department stores.

It was a recommendation that the Fourth Pan American Bed Cross Goaferes.ee, meeting in Santiago, Chile, nest December, investigate the desirability of organising Inter-Jk^nerican S e d Cross Societies into -a league, so that the work ia this hemisphere could, be co-ordinated with • that «£ tlie international committee.

With' Europe's population suffering through the havoc of war, and with the extension of the Nazi' code to several • new countries, eould the Havana Conference be.._silent on t h e s e problems! ^~-_ Several of the American, republics' apparently felt that something ougivt to be said and done about the human crisis in Europe.' Thej.. therefore1 came armed: with' resolutions about opening the gates of the 'Amaneas- to the suffering peoples aeross the Atlantic. But those resolutions ware referred to the Pan-American Union for study. • It' would be unjustified to- conclude that'the'Havana Co&feranee was materialistic and selfish, in" its spirit. It is 'true that the conference was summoned to consider primarily the • economic problems that' faced the American republics because th/eir trade had been largely a£fectedr'by • Surope's war.

It is also true that the conference was concerned about "Fifth. Column" activities about which so' much has been written in our press.-.-There was also the problem of what to do and how to do it if Germany should attempt to control territories in this hemisphere that belonged to European nations she had conquered.

If Hie Havana Conference failed to spi d a y time on the human distress of Europe's, peoples, it was not because the conference was selfishly centered on hemispheric problems. It must be remenibpred that the Havana Conference was not one of the usual interArru'rk'an conferences, like the one in Lima, I'eru, two years ago. It was a limited meeting w h i e b represented only the F o r e i g n Ministers • of the American Republics, '"like'-"the meeting at Panama last fall. It was not within the province of the special Havana gathering to consider the comprehensive, scope of questions that are normally included on an Inter-American Conference agenda.

Fortunately, however, several of the delegations' ignored the limitations of. the Havana agenda and presented resolutions in the interest of Europe's refugees. Their^eountries thereby gave

It is quite important that this requirement be fulfilled. The need for increasing the income and employment opportunities of the native population, lias influenced tha American governments to restrict the admission and employment of. foreign executives and technicians.

At the present time, any discussion .of the immigration opportunities must necessarily be theoretical. "When men like-Mr. Saul Cohn of New York City, . prominent, in our nation's retail field, and his associates return from t h e i r , survey, we shall be more adequately informed on what foundations might be used, for drawing enterprising industrialists and entrepreneurs f r o m Europe, and technicians or e x p e r t . workers, to build new industries in these republics.

It seems to me that we ought to make up our minds thai; though we cry, "Open the gates!" the gates to the many American countries will not be widely opened. It takes a long time to get the American republics to agree upon a hemispheric policy. At Buenos Aires, in 1938, the proposal was adopted by the Inter-Acjerican Conference, providing for a committee of experts to study the ability of each of the 21 republics to receive immigrants. T i e Committee of experts was 'never appointed because only three countries replied to the questionnaire' of the Pan American Union when it requested data on the immigration subjects.

Mexico's resolution, submitted to the recent Havana Conference, served an extraordinary purpose. I t stirred the conscience of the American republics anew and reminded them-that the developments in Europe's war h a Ve ' placed numerous groups in a very precarious situation. Mexico appealed to the generosity of the several republics to take steps toward finding a place in their economies .for the unfortunate European men and women. . Now and then we hear the sugges-..

Jerusalem* October 19, 1910.

The strains ox' the melodic song, "Bezalel," disturbs the calmness of the slumbering Jerusalem. It is the song of New Life, exhorting the proud heavens of the future, composed as it was amidst collective aspirations of "Bezalel's" founder and his students.

As Americana we shall pray for the preservation of democracy and for the redemption of free, peoples everywhere in the world, We "must have complete faith in the ultimate defeat of the enemies of democracy and when that day shall come Israel in Palestine will find its proper place among the nations of the world. • On the threshold of this New Year our thoughts go out to our people everywhere — here and abroad, in' Europe v and in Palestine who must face the future with courage "and with faith."

We, toOj must have that faith. We, too, must have that courage; and the victory shall be 'ours."

Dr. Israel Goldstein, president of the Jewish,National Fund, said: "As we usher in the year 5701, we rededicate ourselves to the defense — despite the ferocity of the" onslaught and the temporary' setbacks—of the spiritual fortresses which, guarded, protected and sustained us in the past. Taking up these tasks of defense, we squarely face the responsibilities of this grave ' hour.

We of B'nai B'rith are not among such doubters' and never will be.

"We- have confidence that the dynamics of "democracy are far more powerful than any totalitarianism can ever be.

Somewhere in Newark,-N. J., there is a Jewish hoy who is being educated for the rabbinate in. part- with funds contributed annually by a Catholic priest. When an annual • scholarship fund of $5,CC0 for Newark boys attending Yeshiva college wss established, M^r. John G.

Taking stock of JawMi eemmsnal errors, Mr. Baer, direelor ef B'nai B'ritii'31 ¥ocatioaal ienrica Bureau,, discusses tk& sias of comalsnion- asd ©mission against 3swish youth in iha fiaM of ecssjatiosal 'couasalmf ss»d calls for a S9t7 iaal in tha ociaia^ yea?,—TBS 3BJT0S. On the occasion of each-New Year it has been traditional lor u$ Jaws to taka stock of ourselves, and- to eosslde? errors and transgressions • of the year past.

There ii no reason -way this 1 practice should be limited to us as individuals. Why should we not also recall sniatakaa attitudes far which we • 83 a group may well repeat I In the field of Jawish occupational adjustment we have sinned by doing a great deal of muddy thinking. Some of our orators and writers have had unbridled opportunity to -project -ball. baked ideas -and pet theories- which have confused rather than clarified our understanding ox the subject, and many of our young people have been misled. This then is a good time to expose the humbuggery that has been tittered concerning Jewish vocations} problems, with the resolve to begin the New Year .with a more sober ap• proaeh to the. subject.

The writer, ia til a aoursa e£ Ma vocational work, has s e t two different groups of people, both ax "<vhleh h-avs been projecting falsa tiiaoriea <sf Jawi a h oceupatioaal adjustment. T h a first of these we shall call t^e "shasba" ^ o u \ a a rej. C2i «*» -i z ™

economic world. Like' youth ia general, they ara badly £a need of the facts on oceupatioaal trends w h i e b only scientific resaarcliars can discover.

Another, statement whieli is ©ftan made, but which .we cannot aecept, is that tha problem- of Jewish cecupaticnal adjaatserst ia so inextricably bound' up with gesaral economics t h a t .we Jews can do nothing about it. If this thought w e r e sound,. it would also mal:a good sense to disband tha Ma-' tional Urban League, which is seeking eecnesnc battaraant fcr tha N.agro, aid to cease., all efforts to isiprovs tbe eeoaoaic lot of Aaeriean yoatli, t h e - workers over 40, the aged, war . veterans, married wosnen and other' such groups. For is ii cot true that tEe problems of all o-r these groups would find amelioration ia a general- Aserican eeonoEsie reconstruction ?

•Tha truth of tha zaatlsr m t h a i about 54 millions of Americans a x e competing for about 44 millions jobsj.. that Jew3 are handicapped' in this jobscramble by reasoa oi bias on the part of employers; that we can give CUT JU2J Jer/ijh p peoplj sszzi by t:o-i r'jr this ian 3 a i 3 tj.j£i szzT-3 voCwtiomlly 2l*?i*

that xti eaa to sona estest leosea dis> ileas with

'miliar ring ia that-young Jewish men should taJje up manual crafts instead of studying for professions. Such advise, gjvea without careful qualifieatioa, .is botis illogical and harmful.

•A'career -should be. chosen in aecordancs with an individual's interests and abilities. If he is qualified for a 'professional career and has opportunities 'for success ia such a field, it is foolish tocrge him to "become a bricklaysr, a machinist or a farmer. If on. tha other hand, fca demonstrates a aschanka] - aptitude, he may well be encdarsgsd to study for a skilled trade.

It is trae, of coarse,- that many Jewish ycuth v?bo sr@ interested in electrical engineering would make -better electricians, that some who are studying for dentistry are overshooting their and should consider an occupa-

tion such as -dental mechanics, that others might achieve greater suecess as printers than as newspapermen, etc.

But we cannot wildly prescribe a manual occupation for all Jewish youth who are interested in the professions.

It is sincerely believed by some that anti-Semitism would receive a severe blow if Jews distributed themselves in occupational fields m o r e nearly in accordance with the distribution of the general population. @urrent world developments have made it abundantly clear that this is m e r e wishful thinking. T r u e , the antiSemites would lose some of their ammunition if they could not point to Jewish concentration in certain middle-class occupations. Anti-Semitism, however, has become so closely bound up with the onward march of Fascism, that no self-changes on the-part of Jewry are likely to make any "substantial difference in the security of its position. Of. course, notwithstanding the'above, it is still sound to hold that the Jewish people would be better off economically in the long run if their occupational activities rested on a broader base.

Quota Basis Finally, there are those among the "alarmists" who would have Jews participate in various vocations on a quota

Apart from its infeasibility, the proposal is utterly fallacious.

Why should we Jews confonU to an occupational pattern whieh in itself is imperfect? Then, too, the presence in certain vocations of a large number of Workers of the same etbnip group is. not phenomenal in American economic life.

• ' Negroes are heavily represented in unskilled labor and in domestic pursuits and are employed as porters in the larger cities to the, exclusion of other, wjorkers. Our metropolitan, police forces have many Irish names on their roster of personnel. Chinese laundrymen, Italian barbers and Greek res. tauranteurs a r e , familiar figures in American b u s j n e s,s establishments.

Though we want to- see the Jewish youth of tomorrow as broadly distrib' uted as possible in the economic life of the nation, .let us not be so unrealistic as to want to shackle ourselves to a quota system..

Whether it emanates from the "ahasha" or the "alarmist" camp, any and all nonsense about Jewish occupation-

These questions a y scon prova snore than academic; d they n a y turn out to be critical. Tha totalitarian are making their plaaa en the assumption that our adherence to democracy is unreal and irreligious; that we are in truth, decadent, spiritless, and selfindulgent. They expect to starve 123 into submission, though their ancient predecessors w e r 3 unable to starve either the Jews or tha Christians who founded jsodern civilisation.

If America is to survive as a free country, it must be prepared to resist the inroads of totalitarianism in all its phases. America' must become formidable not merely hi the three dimensions of modern war on land, en sea, and in the air. It must become espeeially formidable in the fourth diqiension in which, the straggle far centre! is being carried on—that We must bzing to the defense 01 democratic traditions the p a s s i o n which the enemies of democracy h to its destruction.

this twentieth Century of the. Common era. Jerusalem might have fallen, but there were the communities of Babylon, Alexandria, and Borne. Already, at .that.time,-.the diaspora h&d been initiated, and' well-eotablished roads could bear the burden of the exiles.

The Spanish Inquisition becomes a tiny incident, indeed, when one compares it to the Inquisition instituted^ the Nads.

Its activities had, for the most part, been confined to the Iberian Penninsula and there had always remained a way out for the Sephardic Jews-—even conversion. During the disastrous periods of the Crusades, one city might fall, but there was, another, close by. ; The current tragedy is continental in scope. Nowhere are the European Jews allowed peace, and there is little escape, for the seas themselves have become instruments, of war.

Yet the Jews have manifested an amazing desire to live, id continue an old and honorable tradition. Palestine, despite Italian raids, has not hesitated to continue plans for buildisjg.

Eelatidns with the Arabs have improved so there is indication of harmony between the two groups.

This Year of Tears * •_v

- lent September vrhen world Jewry celebrated its new year —tha dawn of another century—it was to the accoiripaniement of-the first rumblings of a new and disastrous war. It was a Jldly.Doy being grteoly observed-; yet all held the feint (though futile) hop© that maybe this war would clear the atmosphere-that coon Irasa&nity vauld bo freed of the .beasts who were threataniag to enclave it. The lcnauaae °£ tbico was being employed to impress tyrants who Iniow no other language, who.,, understood no gesturo but a threatening one. ' This is an oven grimmer New Year. This is a darker day than the one last year when Nasi planeo circled ovfer Polish synagogues and deliberately dropped their lethal cargoes upon men and women seeking peace with their God. From the Arctic to the equator m&ii have wrought destruction. On the land, in the air,' on the cess, in tho desert, death has extended its sway. Not even the American neutrality belt could remove this hemisphere from the .scene of conflict as proved by the naval battle -that aaw tho scuttling of tho Graf Spee, Norway, Pinland, Denmark, Belgium, Holland, Frcnee, Luxembourg—they have all joined tho realm oS the conquered and share the fate of the Austrian and tho Czechs.

In this wide vista bf deatli-—a process that has seen-the - destruction -.of the world's greatest cities, Shanghai, Madrid, Barcelona, Helsinki, Wateaw,. Rotterdam,' Amsterdam, Paris, • Oslo, London, and, yes, even Berlin and Milan*—it seems quite futile arid almost foolish to speak of Jewish pain; Suffering ha3 ceased to be thp monopoly of any one group, but is today the lot of nearly all "eivilteld" humanity. The road of exile has become cosmopolitan.

The Jewish ledger sheet 13 red, red with the blood of , martyrs. Polish Jewry, the largest in Europe, has totally disappeared from our midst aa though it had been sent hurtling, into space. The spiritual resource's of an old though povertystricken community, have gone. Some of the Polish Jews are now under the domination of thtf Nazis, som§ under the COminunista. The woll-established and flourishing and healthful flomniunitie3 df Esthonia, Latvia, and Lithuania have joined the , ranks of the ail eat. They, too, have gone fromois1 and their Jews, like the Jews of Russia, have been divorced from Judaism. by tyrant's edict. Of Rumania, there is no need to speak. I t has suffered long and much. .. ..

• But to these Jews of Eastern Europe these events are an old, old story. They have always endured suffering and dis.crimiisntion. In.addition, however, tha free Jewish communities of western Eurd»e have come under the heel of Hitler. French Jewry, Belgian Jewry, -DiJhish Jewry, Dutch Jewry, Norwegian Jewry, Luscnbourjj Jewry—thtzti, too.

In theStream of History Never, do we believe, in tlie resords 6f time-*eScept perhaps in the formative years of Christianity, have the Jews become so much a part of history, the lives of each so dependent upon the turn of events. "Where in. the past, wars aad aa&amade calamities, such as the present war, were apt to ®&&& fey since the Jews were a people apart, they are today iaestricsbly and unwillingly bound up with what is happening. This is due to til© prominence Hitler has given the Jews by his obses/ sion with them. r --This -war, it must .never'be" forgotten, is'more .taaa a con*' flict between nations and-their rival iaperlal interests. -In the ';Iong run, it will'be'revealed as a'straggle between ideoldgiea and if the Germans win what will result will be a W6rld»wide "revolution" that will institute a new dark ages that will make the previous era known by that name all sunshine and light.

AntiSemitism", was an attack on religion and particularly Chrii* tianity—as German priests and pastors so soon discovered.

It is no accident that thousands of Genaaa clefgymen languish in prison and concentration camp. Like the Jew*, they represented doctrines which conflicted witb'Nasi ideology, . and it is the Nazi intent and-purpose to wipe out all vestiges of this ideology of Christianity sad Judaism. . ..Despite the prominence given to Jews 'by Nad policy, in. reality the Jews are-innocent bystanders.. The'Nazis chose them to bear the frontal attack for various reasons. First, it would be easy to utilize old prejudices (for the German people have'" an anti-Semitic tradition) to forestall the humanitarian reforms, for which the people clamored, by labeling them Jewish. AntiSemitism also became a central point of German morale. iWhen all else failed, the populace could be, made.to feel itself superior by the Very accident of birth. Even the most chauvinistic Jews who clung to a Chosen people concept, did this not on the b&sis of blood but for the tradition represented. Even those Germans who held little feeling against the Jews and., decried the persecutions could not help but have their ego* inflated by. the inference they were superior -beings. ; Anti-Semitism was also a blessing to the Nssis fer-a more important reason. It was the Trojan horse tactic that brought entree into the countries the Nazis wished to conquer. It was the opening wedge. So-called patriots could be enlisted in the Nazi cause. This is no wild theory but a statement proved by the actions of a Quissling, a de Grelle, a de Mussert, a Henleih, as well as a few of local vintage. ,

While present-day anti-Semitism has been of grave concern to us, in the long run, it may prove to be very fortunate to future generations. Already there is some evidence of-the abatement Of the present wave. For the first time since the beginnings of Christianity people are thinking seriously of the Jewish "problem"--which ..has beea so violently projected into.

Grow old along with me!

The best is yet to be, The last of life, for which the first was made: Our times are in his hand Who saith. "A whole I planned.

Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!"

Then, welcome each rebuff That t u r n s earth's smoothness rough, Each, sting that bids nor sit nor stand but got Be our joys three-parts pain!

Strive, and hold cheap the strain; Learn, nor account the pang; dare, n-ver grudge the throe!

Not on the vulgar mass Called "work," m u s t sentence pass, Things done, that took the eye and had the price; O'er which, frora level stand, . The low world laid its hand, Found straightway to its mind, could value in a trice: Eut ail the world's coarse thumb And finger failed to plumb, So passed in making Up the main ; All instincts immature, All purposes unsure.

That weighed not as his work, yet s w e l l e d the man's amount: Thoughts hardly to be packed • Into a narrow act, Fancies that broke through language &n6 escaped; All I coulS never be, All, men ignored In me, This, I v^as worth to God, whose wheel the pitcher shaped.

So, take and use thy work: Amend what flaws may lurk, What strain o" the stuff, w h a t warpjngs past the aim!

My times be in thy hand!

Perfect the cup && planned! .

Let age approve of youth, a n d death complete the same!

New Year's Edition—THE JEWISH PRESS—RoshHashonah 570i—Thursday, October 3, 1940 brew Congregations in 1878, the Board of Delegates of American Israelites rendered important services to t h e Jewish cause. Its leading spirits were for the most part, Jews of German descent.

The discussion of the relation of German Jewry to the Synagogue cannot be disposed of without. dwelling on the Reform movement. ; It is not unlikely that some kind of movement for the reform of the Synagogue ritual would have taken place of its own accord, and quite independently of influences emanating from Germany. It is doubtful, however, if an indigenous movement for Reform would have taken tUe\ same course or developed the same characteristics as marked the Reform movement under the influence of the German-Rabbis.

the Congregational authorities demands for the improvement of t h e liturgy. They were rejected. Thereupon, the Society formed its own Congregation on Conservative R e f o r m principles. Its membership consisted of Sephardic Jews.

In 1840, however, the old Congregation, under the guidance of Rev. Gustav Pqsnanski, a G e r m a n Jew, finally introduced an organ into its service and adopted a prayer ritual modified after the German Reform model. It was, therefore, the German influence which did finally' affect, even if it did not originally cause the first movement for Synagogue reform in this country.

The German R e f o r m movement,i propagated in this country by German Rabbis who came to minister to American Congregations, had a profoundly disturbing effect upon the currents of Congregational lifej a n d Synagogue ritual in America. Many new Congregations were organized on Reform principles to start with.

Controversy'

It was a time of great religious controversy in American life. The Jewish pulpit and the Jewish periodicals resounded with theological debates. The outstanding ^figures in that controversy on the side of Reform, were David Binhorn, who held pulpits in Baltimore, Philadelphia and N e w York, and Isaac M. "Wise,' who held pulpits in Albany and Cincinnati, ed-_ ited- "The' American^Israelite," and was' chiefly instrumental as the organizing genius of the (Reform 'movement in America, having' organized .the Union of' American -Hebrew Congregations, the Hebrew Union College mjd . the Central Conference of > American Rabbis. .- - « The chief protoganists on the side of Orthodoxy were "Isaac .Lelaer, of German birth,- who- held positions i n ' the Sephardie Con'gregalions of.

out Europe, and the failure of the masses to establish l i b e r a l governments, especially in G e r m a n y , led many of them to seek homes elsewhere where the spirit as well as the body could be free. Thousands of German Jews, at the opening of the century, made their ways to America, and while the immigration never reached mass proportions it was highly significant in its effect upon the development of the Jewish community in the United Statea. ' Thirty years later there was another wave of immigration, this time of tidal proportions, as the Russian May Laws and pogroms of 1881 and 1882, and the years t h a . t followed, sent countless thousands to t h e s e shores.

The migration was one of the great mass movements of all time, and in one brief generation, less than half the century which now slips away, millions of Jews have made the adjustment to & new environment.

It need hardly be pointed out that the closing hours of the eentury witness another migratory movement or great importance in.Jewish history.

Conscription There were wars, many wars, during those hundred years. A r m i e s ' * marched back and forth across Europe, and everywhere the" Jews were the first victims, convenient and defenseless before the conquering hordes.

The. wars of France, Austria, Prussia, Turkey, Russia, found the Jews, as ever, the supreme sufferers. Almost half the Jews of the world, under the benighted rule of the Czar, f o u n d themselves subject to a military conscription far transcending anything in effect these days. Boys between the ages of 12 and 25, if not younger, were .called, and service was for 25. years.

Jews fought and fell in Crimea, in the wastes of Manchuria, and elsewhere, as slaves in the Russian army. Jewish l i t e r a t u r e has immortalized t h e

"Snatcbers," official kidnapers of the Russian army.

Two developments' during this period shed their glow over the* .entire century .and constitute historical alleviation of the endless succession of persecution and misery. One was the growth, of the American Jewish community and its assumption of leadership in world Je%vis!s responsibilities: the other was the creation of the Eionist organization and the beginning of the restoration of the Jewish Homeland in Palestine.

While one quarter of world Jewr> was passing under * Communist domr •• nation, and another quarter u n d e r Nazi rule, both constituting Jewish extinction, five million Jews in America composed a community, of free, comparatively happy people, 'conscious of their responsibilities to their brethren, and alert -" to • the necessity for safeguarding-American democracy.

IQ Palestine, in this century, Jews have served notice upon the world that come what may, they have determined

It is ••still too early to predict what may "come • from the social^ ex- • perimentation in Palestine, but it is very likely that history will record the century not only as the one in which •Jewish survival was again confirmed, • but also as one in which new social forms, first given expression by the - Hebrew prophets, were pioneered by their ancestors centuries later.

At the outset it was stated that the fifty-seventh "century was typicsi of many that had 'preceded typical in wars, in expulsions,: in persecutions, • in mass .migrations.- In this alone, in Jewish national -expression • is Eretz Israel, does the contrary stand alone.

And that night, ii more scmber, more gruesome, inora starkly and fantastically inhuman thaa anything the world ha3 witnessed from the days o£ the slavery in Mitzraim to the martyrdom in Spain. All the horrors of the paot are eclipsed. Helpless, bound hand and foot, as it were, witlio.it means of escape, the Jews of Poland, the millions of them, are delivered up to a cruel, sadistic foe, to creatures who take a delight in torture and humiliation and in the shedding of blood, who revel in the .sight oi luman suffering.

I call them creatures. I cannot call them men. I cannot call them human.

I am ashamed to be of the same flesh as they.

Poland is a house of horror. But not only Poland. The plight of inhumanity has spread all over Europe.

The gates ox hell have opened and the infernal forces have prevailed over Germany and Austria, Czechoslovakia, two 01 t h e Scandinavian countries, Holland, Belgium, and a p a r t oil France. Christian civilization has been blotted out in the betterj,part of 3urope. (Jreat nations he in chains. Immense and nameless is the suffering.

This time thesL. old <?od» take the form of t h e quasi-almighty leviathan state, which depersonalises man, dehumanizes him, and, as we see, bestializes him.

Concentration Camp The peoples of the conquered nation 3 of Europe are all in a concentration camp. They exist and toil and sweat and weep only to satisfy the needs the whims and the lusts of the conquering Najds. They exist as slaves of the people who call themselves Herrenvolk, the dominant race, the overIord3, who claim to be endowed with a Herrennatur, that is to say, who consider themselves selected and endowed by nature and tradition to Icrd it over other, lesser breeds.

Long ago they began dividing the human race into men and mongrels, and they launched their a t t a c k s against the Jewish people first. Not only because the Jews were the weakest minority and because defense of

There can be no compromise, there can be no exceptions. It* is a struggle for life and death, that has been unleashed in this world. And it will not end, thia struggle, until the ens or tha other lias triumphed. » It started with ih.3 Jews in Germany. And when it started we nonJews did virtually nothirg about it. The voices of those who warned and pleaded were voices crying in tea wilderness. Tv"e shrugged our shoulders.

Of what concern was it to us that Hitler and StreicKr put the Jews of Geiv many in their place? "We did not realise, apart from our lack of an elementary human solidarity, that what Hitler attacked in the Jews were our own holiest possessions. "We did n o t see that he was driving a wedge in the forces of humanity and democracy, as he later, in the military field, drove a wedge between the Englishmen and Frenchmen. The Naz'i tacties are always the same. First the wedge and the Trojan horse, and then destruction and subjugation. The attack on the Jews was the first skirmish. It wa« scarcely worth bothering about. At most it wa3 admitted that there was % Jewish problem per se, but that problem did not extend beyond the rami> t fieations of purely local racial, sectional issues.

Now we know, now we see, now we are painfully aware of the reality.

Inextricably Jewish people Lave been our precursors in the road of sorrowa.

The Jewish people were our own outer rampart, and we forgot to watch that rampart. The flood of hatred and blood has swept it aside. It l a s engulfed one bulwark after tlis other.

Coercion Wrong I don't believe that the best way to get non.imembers to join congregations is by refuging them the services of Judaism in a time they think they need it most.

This is coercion and Judaisft\ imposed by force is no more desirable than Christianity was to the Maranos when they had to take It.

Bmk IMttsr RABBI THEODORE K. LEWIS Eociety Editor FRANCES BLACKEIl • - » ' MORRIS AI2ENBERG~-Siott3t City

Einstein Speaks on- God The Conference of Science, Religion an.d Philosophy recently concluded at the Jewish Tlts&logical 8emingry was marked by ealy eae discordant note—tbat the paper delivered by Albert Einstein.'

We call it discordant because it departed frota-'tlie general tenor of the papers read sad introduced an element of dissatisf&cticit.Elnsteln flatly denied ilia idea of a personal God. We doubt very much if God were annoyed, but we believe Einstein has cast & reflection ©a his own mental abilities.

This distinguished pbyeiclirt is a natural seleatist. His thinking is conditioned by the feet tbat every theory must be proven with eatisfaetoxy evl» dence, evidence that submits itself, to'mathematical equation. The idea of a personal God, he claims, is not subject to this discipline and, therefore, 1ms no place in modern life..

Eminent philosophers and, yes, even physicists, have been quick to deny hia contention. It is a struggle that i3 old—as old aa modern science. It la a declaration that gained headway under the Influence of Newtonian thought and under the Rationalists of the Eighteenth Century. To r e fute this belief the Koenlgsburg philosopher, Immauuel Kant, wrote his f a m o u s treatises that played BO important a role in the development of humanitarianisin. In his philosophy off Transcendentalism, Kant put the belief in God beyond the realm of proof—as Einstein does—and declared it with Immortality and Free Will intuitive qualities of the human mind. These arrange the events of our HveB and (synthesize our existence go life appears not as a series of meaningless events but aa a perfect and related whole.

Natural scientists, because of their subservience to the laboratory, have become quite parochial In their thought. Not long ago an eminent physiologist gave as proof of the non-existence of the human soul that in his half century of experimentation, not once did ho find a soul in a dissected cadaver. Yet this gentleman Is devoted to the Saturday evening concerts of the National Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra and would not deny Ha existence merely because he could not find it in a radio he had taken apart.

Einstein seemingly forgets that much of natural science is based on theories proved only by manifestation.. Ono can cite, for example, the "Molecular theory" on which a l l Physics a n d Chemistry In based. . , .... , . .

Tho truth's of nature have a way of evading all—philosophers, scientists,, and theologians. No matter how eminent the man, he may well remember Emerson's words: "Nature never turns'a mean face; nor does the wisest man extort her ee'cre't."'

Howling and Otherwise Wo cannot say .we are .watching, the current

conflict with objectivity; nor did we see it begin without preconceived prejudices. But had wo been able to preserve tho neutrality of mind, such aa President Wilson asked for in 1914, we are afraid that by watching the present Battle of Britain', we' would become one-sided.

Great Britain has been subjected to mfrcilesa bombings. The great city of London, the world's largest, has uridergo'rio* terrific." p6iinding at the hands of Nazi airmen. Yet the British do not cringe under repeated attacks; they do not denounce the bomblnga in shrill tones. They are grimly fighting the war with clenched teeth. They did not ask for the conflict, but since it has coma •they will see it through. They ask no quarter from-their enemy for they, have no illusions about war.

When bombings first occurred they remem' bored they had expected worst and merely expressed their gratltudo that the tremendous casualties had not been forthcoming. They went into their air-raid shelters and prepared for the onslaught with which they, had been threatened.
