Hold Arab-Jewish Parley on Plight Of the 1 krus Crop
Helsinki (JTA) — The entire press published a message from Chief Rabbi Simon Federbusch to Jewish soldiers in the ' Finnish Army declaring that "this fight of defense is based on the ideals of the Hebrew prophets." Dr. Federbusch stressed the patriotism of Jewish youth and pointed out that numerous Jews had volunteered for front-line service. Recalling that the liberated Finland had granted equal rights to Jewish citizens, the message concluded by quoting Psalm 27 as follows: "The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Annual C. B. Talmud Torf'- Dance to Be of whom shall I be afraid?

U. 0. C. DINNER THIS SUNDAY
Washington (JTA)—Attorney General Robert H. Jackson declared this week that the Grand Jury Investigation of the alleged seditious conspiracy by 17 Christian Frontista in New York should produce "a clear identification of any persons or groups who have provoked or financed or otherwise conspired with these defendants." Such persons, the Attorney General said, "should be held responsible for their conduct if they have Violated or Induced the violation •f any Federal law." • The statements came after growing demands that the Justice Department investigate Fa ther Charles E. Coughlln's connection With the Christian Front activities and while the radio priest himself, In one of his weekly, broadcasts from Detroit, announced that "I do not disassociate myself" from the Front.

THE CHALLENGE OF INTOLERANGI (Continued from page 2) spiritual values without which life would be a barren and brutish thing. : ...There are sonie_ things in this era of transition oil which we all cannot agree — some matters of national policy about which there We bound to be honest differences of opinion. -I But there is one Question of policy that should not and must pot divide us. Should it eventually 4o so, thp end of American democracy will not be far behind. •'• That policy is the creed of tolerance which for a century and a half has sustained civil liberty and representative government in this land. - There is no hope for us in turnIng away from that policy. And those who preach that we will prosper by doing so preach a black and destructive doctrine. They preach a doctrine that is the betrayal of everything that the Fathers of the Republic hoped and planned-for. They preach a philosophy that can bring nothing but hate and misery and ruin to this nation which has become great Only through harmony and mutual faith among those who built it. America Not Built by "Antist" America was not built by antiSemitism, on anti-Protestantism, or hatred for the Catholics, or by the fantastic doctrines of racial superiority that are practiced else•Rhere. America was built to greatness by a partnership of men and women who represent every race and nationality that inhabits the globe. The good things of life that you and I enjoy we owe not to Catholics alone, or Jews alone, or Englishmen or Irish alone— •We do not owe them to Aryans or, non-Aryans a l o n e , or to •flfhite or black alone — we owe them to all God's children of every color and nation and creed— tp all God's children whom He loves each alike with that same love which "passeth all understanding." What folly, what awful tragedy, what disloyalty, to talk of dissolving that God-Inspired partnership now when d e m o c r a c y needs it most! America's mission is not the propagation of hate. Our mission is that of helping to prove that only in peace and brotherhood will men find happiness on this earth. Our mission Is to show that by reasonable and peaceful means, men of different natures can build a common security in which justice, and liberty are d e n i e d to

Usual toppers in the league had the worst series of the year, which will not be probed at this moment. Empire Cleaners topped t h e leant performance for the night, ending with a three-game win over the Wardrobes to go into a tie for leadership with the State Goals, who held their position with a two-game lead over the Pioneers.

His 223 was elso high. Paul Steinberg cam« close for second with 6«3. Team top was the Empires' 2322, and high game .was the State Coals 887 In the second game. Meleher was the main cog in an jempire attack on tho Wardrobe* which left tho latter badly, beaten* by 40, 130 and 70-pin Margins. The Wardrobes had a disadvantage in lacking a bowler. Second high for the Gleaners was Blacker with a 491. Paul Steinberg's mark of 663 was Che only score showing an 'average on the Wardrobe team. Herb Marks followed with 448. . Tretiaks blanked the Shriers, both minus their captains tor a night, with Zweiback leading the gang with 646. Another 600 series? on the team was Morrle Pine's nice 629. The nearest the ' Carters came, was in the second game when the loss was only by S3 pins.
