A Weekly Survey ©I Peoplo aad Ideas Ey A. A. KOBACS When Asch's Tillim Yid ("Salvation" is the English title) appear serially, I had a hunch, if psychologists are allowed to have such things, that one of these days Asch "would join the army of scholars and novelists, many of them Jews, who have been intrigued by the personality of Jesus. Asch'a "The Nazarene" has succeeded in calling forth a storm of controversy. The Jewish Daily Forward, which for decades has brought out Asch's writings serially, this time declined _to print the novel; and at any rate, from a material point of view, for a good reason. The Book-of-the-Month Club, on the other hand, selected it as the prize novel on its list. Either of these opposed reactions proves nothing. Mr. Cahan, editor of the Forward, may be wrong in classifying it as religious expression rather than literature; for religious sentiments, as embodied in the Psalms, may for all the fine prose and chiarcscure effects it exhibits, may not have chosen it, were it not for the tribute paid to the figurehead of Christianity by the foremost Jewish novelist.

(Continued from page-1.) escaped to the Soviet area was described by a J. D. C. staff member who has just completed a tour of the Soviet zone in a telegram from Wilno. The telegram outlined the situation as follows: The half million homeless Jews include 300,000 massed in Lwow, 120,000 in the Galician provinces, 60,000 in Bialystok, 60,000 in Rovno and 40,000 in. Lutzk and Kowel. They comprise SO per cent of all refugees from Nazi Poland. Migration from the German area to the Soviet zone continues, but the Soviet authorities are beginning to introduce difficulties for the migrants, explaining that the problem is becoming too large to be handled. The Soviet authorities are permitting organization of local Telief committees and for the time being are not hindering their activities, including the raising of funds for the maintenance of kitchens, which is being done with the assistance of the J. D. C. In Lwow, the authorities are co-operating in distributing food freely to refugees, but resources are limited. Food is also available for payment in Polish zlotys, but tens of thousands are penniless and need food and clothing. Thousands of deaths are certain if winter clothing is not delivered by foreign relief organizations since it is impossible to obtain clothing supplies in Russia. In Bialystok the authorities arc feeding 20,000 Jewish refugees daily but this Is inadeuate. A large-scale relief program for the feeding and clothing of Jewish refugees In Wilna and needy local Jews there, has beea completed by Morris.-C. Troper, J. D. C. European director, and transmitted to the J.. T>: C. in New York; following receipt of . detailed : information by European headuarters of the organization from its representatives in Wilno,
Kaplan, treasurer of the Jewish Agency, urged American Jews to increase their support for the upbuilding of Palestine. Meanwhile, High. Commissioner Sir Harold A. MacMichael received a joint, delegation of Arab and Jewish citrus growers in Jerusalem to discuss the new season's problems and the question of a Government subsidy for citrus production, made e x c l u s i v e l y through the Jewish N a ti o n a 1 Council, Robert E. H. Crosbie, District Commissioner for Lydda, has informed the Rishon-1«"-Zion local council, which had asked financial aid to cope with unemployment and other dfficultles. The statement is regarded as having some politieil importance since the local councils of Jewish villages, generally representing middle-class farmers, had refused to send representatives to the Jewish National Council^ thus blocking President Pirichas Ruttenberg's efforts to.; establish political solidarity in the Jewish community. The local councils had demanded much greater representation than was offered them.
gees Involved resided in seaport cities such; as Naples, Genoa, Trieste and San Remo. This fact is thought significant of the Italian Government's intention of either discouraging or completely eliminating concentration of refugees near strategic naval points. In past months, refugees in Italy have tended to settle in seaport cities either to await their turn in the American quota or because of the instinctive feeling it instills of proxmity to happier shores. Many against whom expulsion action has been taken are converging towards -Rome in the hopes of receiving stay extensions from the Interior Military Ministry. Others have used their free tickets to Tarviso. Also teing attracted to Rome are numerous other • refugees expected a smiHar fate but hoping to avoid' it by' change -of residence to-the capital. For the moment, the refugee situation here is somewhat more tranquil than in. other Italian cities. Especially sad is the plight of the more recently arrived contingent of German refugees, in Trieste. Genoa and Naples.- Many were able to enter Italy by producing ship tickets; to the -United States on Italian lines,' which had been purchased in Germany. Since the outbreak of the' war. however, these tickets have" not been honored by the Italian shipping companies. Some of the refugees-had purchased ticKetsrin* Germany as it .was .the only means of leaving, the war zone and entering Italy, although they had not yet been called Into .the United States' quota for immigration.
