Breslow Auto Glass vs. Wardrobe Clothiers.

Everyone is convinced that this years J. C. C. Junior League is the closest in Center History. Two games separate the first place team from the last. In last Sundays Contests the fans witnessed the first overtime period of the season as the A. Z. A. No. 100 deeated their arch rivals A. Z. A . 1 in a thrilling Dick Merriwell finish. 21-19 The Mother Chapter boys were enalized four free throws for not aving enough men on the court t game time, Jack Epstein poting three of them to put them "ahead.

With Mort Soref leading the t way the A. Z. A. No. 1 went ahead and were leading at half time 116. The Century Chapter turned the tide in the last h a l f and caught up with the No. 1 boys, the •core ending the game 19-19 In the overtime session Jack Epstein recovered a loose ball at mid-court and fired at the basket with the ball hitting the meshes dean as a whistle. The victory was a birthday present to their faithful coach Paul (Pep) Bogdonotf.

In the Becond hotly e o n t e sted game the W a r d r o b e Clothiers took the sole possession of first place by downing the A. P. T. quintet 28-21. Jimmy Burroughs led the attack for the victorious Clothiers with 10 points while Marshall Geller played his usual good steady brand of ball for the losers..

The last game furnished the biggest upset ot the day aa the Breslow Auto Glass beat the Ornate Jobbing Co. 37-23. Jake Adler was putting (Dead eye Dick) to shame as he poured seven consecutive long field goals to take individual scoring honors with 16 points. Herb Melches was the defensive star for the Breslow team taking ball after ball of the backboard and bringing it down the court in convincing fashion.

On the program was a talk by the regional vice-president of Hadas&ah, Mrs. Lee D. Seelig, who is also the president of the conference of presidents and was a former president of Hadassah in Kansas City.

Henry Monsky At Fifty One of the best tests of an organization's vitality Is the calibre of the leadership It produces. By that criterion B'nai B'rith can lay claim to having given American Jewry one of its most forceful leaders in the person of Henry Monsky who on Sunday will reach his fiftieth birthday.

If that same criterion can be applied to a community, Omaha may well rejoice, for Mr. Monsky, Whose leadership is now recognized the country over, has spent all of those fifty years in this eity.

It was Omaha that first had opportunity to judge his abilities, for it was in local* communal affairs tht he b«gan his activities. The role he Is now. playIng Is a source of great satisfaction to his fellow citizens.

The presidency of as large an organization as the B'nai B'rith is in itself an important position In American Jewish life. But when the president can appreciate all phases of the current problem, Jewry is indeed fortunate. Since assuming the leadership of his organization, Mr. Monsky has become a figure of tremendous influence in communal welfare, education, and civic betterment. Ills conciliatory tactics, his deep appreciation for the spiritual and cultural values of Judaism, his opposition to fanaticism have been done much to keep Jewish life healthful at this particular period of history. In every speech he has made he has sounded a note of optimism tempered by reality, never bowing to defeatism of futility.

Henry Monsky at fifty is a notable example of a self-made Jewish leader who has reached the heights not through wealth, family position or tradition, but on the sheer force of merit and achievement. .

Arab-Jewish Relations

"New Depths of the Divine"

By RABBI FREDERICK COHN Life is inexhaustible. It is fraught with ever new experiences. .'New depths, of the divine'. Browning called it. Life is like & mighty Ocean. Aad as the ocean awakened awe &ni & feeling a majesty, so does life ia its ever-new revealmeats. 'Surely God is in this place' exclaimed Jacob with his head upoa the stone looking up to the mysterious and heaven-beckoning stars, beacons and beckoners of blessing. He at last comprehended the divine character of existence. And so do we all, the longer we live. We are awe-struck by the seemingly most oinmott events, particularly in their connections, coherence and significance. The events of the day take on a tremendous significance. The late G. K. Chesterton spoke of 'tremendous trifles', yet on such email hinges hang the doors of Eternity. Life is not aimless in any of its smallest actions or espects. It has a divine meaning. The story of life is a sacred Story, for all life is sacred.

The minutest circumstance is bound up with momentous meanings. Either it is that, or it is nothing. 'Life means intensely and it means good' said the deeply reflective Browning. 'Good' Is the highest word in the universe. From it comes our very word 'God*. Life is good, 'there is a soul of goodness In things evil' (as even the cold, calm unemotional Spencer said), the universe is good at the core, and goodness is its goal and crown; all this because there is a good God behind it all. He is pledged, by Ills divine nature, to the ultimate triumph of the good, thus Joseph in Egypt saw it long ago. He said to his cowering brethren bowing before him in abject terror because they had treated him so outrageously and abominably "Ye meant to do me evil, God meant it for good" So the Jew, the modern descendant of Joseph, and the incarnation of his spirit and of his fate, will some day say to his erstwhile bitter and relentless enemies who pursue him so mercilessly and maliciously 'Ye meant to do me evil, but God meant it for good': — all because a Divine Providence, 'believe it or not', admit it or not.rules the universe.

Many a person, like the little boy who had eaten a green apple — though in a much pleasanter manner — has 'inside information.' Immemorial experience confirms the homely proverb: "Man proposes, God disposes." And the humblest person in tho events of daily life, of joy and sorrow, of pain and disapointment, of loss and failure, and at times even of unhoped for, even almost despaired of success, is made to feel — though he cannot express it so sublimely — as the inspired Isaiah "My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor My ways your ways; yet as the heavens are higher than the earth so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts." For God's thoughts are 'thoughts of good and not of evil! so do us good In our latter days.' To 'fill out full our unfulfilled careers'. To gratify, in His own high, holy way, our hopes, our aims, our ambitions, our ideals at last!

Optimism regarding Arab-Jewish .relations in Palestine may be premature, but the fact remains, agreeable or otherwise, that actual necessity is bringing about a co-operation that augurs well for an eventual settlement of differences.

For over three years Palestine was convulsed by a campaign of terror that was for the most part Inspired by German and Italian propaganda and God's mercies are 'new every morning.'

BIBLE The show of their countenance dotliwitness against them, and they declare their ein as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their souls, for they have wrought evil uato themselves.

Say ye of the righteous, that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.

Woe unto the wicked; it shall be ill with him, for the work of his hands shall be rewarded to him.

What mean ye that ye crush my people and grind the leaders of the poor.

TALMUD Abba Sikra, the leader of the rebels in Jerusalem, was the eon of the sister of Rabbi Jochanan.

The latter sent word to the former: "Come in secrecy unto me."

When he came, Rabbi Jochanan said to him: "How long are you going to commit these things which causes death of starvation to a great part of the population?"

His nephew answered him: 'What can I do? Should I say a word against them, they will execute me." "Find a Way," said Rabbi Jochanan, "so that I should be able to get out of this town and try to see the enemy; perhaps there will be a little help."

His nephew then advised him, saying: "Feign sickness and let the people come in and visit you as a sick person. Procure something that causes a bad odor and leave It with thee overnight, and let the Rabbis announce that you have died. Your disciples shall then enter to carry you, but none else shall enter, so that they should not thereby feel that you are light in weight and understand that you are alive."

He did so. Rabbi Eleazer entered on one side and Rabbi Joshua on another, and began to carry him away. When they came to the gateB and waited to take tho body out for burial, tho watchmen wanted to stick their spears into the body. Whereupon Abba Sikra said to him: "The Romans will say that their own Rabbis, have pierced thee with spears."

They then wanted to throw him over the gate. Whereupon he again Bald to them what the Romans would say. Consequently they opened the gate for the body and they left.

When Rabbi Jochanan appeared before Vespasian, he said: Peace unto the king." The latter said to him: "You deserve twice execution; first I am no king; secondly, had it been true that I am king, why have you not omo unto me until now T" Rabbi Jochanan said: "To me your power is as great as a king's power, and the reason I did not come to you before—I will say that the rebels who are among us prevented me from doing so."

Vespasian told Rabbi Joohanan: "Before leaving, ask me for a favor and I will try to grant it to you." Rabbi Jochanan said: Give me the city Jobnia with its sages and also the entire noble family of Kabban Gemallel.V (This was the great favor which preserved the Jewish nation from extinction for more than eighteen hundred years.)

duces crows and eagles, vultures and canaries.

Liked to Annoy People This crow liked to annoy people especially on Sunday. On ft day when people desired only to have rest from all the clatter of . the work-week, the crow sat on the topmost branch of the highest tree and gave out its sounds.

At the hour when citizens would rather be listening to the Phiiharmoaic on their radio sets this crow set loose its clatter with such a loudness as to disturb the peace that was ordained for the Sabbath.

Not that everybody considered the crow a nuisance. There were those who said, "There must be something in these sounds. They are so loud and for that reason there is something in them. The crow certainly is trying to say something."

Now this was flattering unction to the crow's soul. It began' to think about its happy situation: What the world needed were many more crows like it . . . "If I am multiplied many times we can have a symphony orchestra and fill the world with our sounds. I'll guess I'll lay some eggs."

And so it did.

It laid eggs and sat upon them and announced to the whole com* munlty: "Soon you shall see what you shall see. I have been just a sole voice, but soon we shall have a big orchestra."

The Hatching As the hour of hatching approached, the big black crow could scarcely contain its pride; "Her* they come! Now see, everybody, what I have produced."

The public gathered around the tree expectantly, waiting for the hatching. Then when people saw what had come out they were at first horribly shocked. The biff old black crow was black enough but the blackness of the new rows was blacker than nights in which to commit murder. They could tolerate a blackness like that of the old crow, but this was a blackout you might Bay. Besides, the new crows had a re* semblance to vultures.

But after the first shock at the sight of this, people laughed at the big black crow. They remembered the pride of tho crow as it waited for the hatching.

Then the crow said: "It's all a He. These crows are not mine. I repudiate them roundly. And whoever says they are my crowa is a liar."

At this there arose such a blast of laughter that the big black crow was .spun away -from 4he tree - - «uch a blast of laughter.

Indeed, AS carried the crow as far as the horizon whence it never, came back.

How much like Coughlin was • this crow. How like Coughlin It disturbed the peace of Sunday and how like the crow Coughlin laid an egg. Yes, he said, out of this egg shall come tho Christian Front and I shall be multiplied many fold. , First Repudiation How like the crow he clattered in expectance of the hatching: "We will fight . * . in Franco's way if necessary. Call this inflammatory if you will. It is inflammatory. Rest assured we will fight you, and we will win. The Christian Front is no longer a. dream. It is a reality. A reality; that grows stronger, more courageous and more determined."

How like the crow; he sat proudly on his egg. How like the crowhe felt devastated when the public first was shocked and then laughed to see the' Black Front he had hatched: A Jot of little guncarrying dupes marching to cap-,

According to the terms of the bill, two gift accounts totalling £8,573,200 will be paid over by the Treasury to the Czechoslovakia Refugees Fund after deductions of sums already advanced by the Treasury. The a d v a n c e s - t o t a l £500,000, according to an explanatory memorandum accompanying the bill.

The bill specifies that the refugee fund will be> under the control »f the Treasury. The memorandum states that payments will be made from this fund to trustees for the purposes of the trust.

Some to Palestine The gift accounts Include the balance of £427,000 r e m aining from the £500,000 transferred to London by the Czech Government following the Sudetenland occupation for the transportation of 2,100 Jews to Palestine. The sum of £75,000 was paid over to the Jewish Agency for Palestine prior to the Nazi seizure of Prague.

Sir Herbert Emerson, League High Commissioner for Refugees, has heen asked to convene the Liaison Committee to consider the deteriorated position of refugees *ince the outbreak of the war.

The request was made. by H. A. Goodman, political a e cretary of the Jewish religious organization Agudath Israel. Sir Herbert, declaring the request would be given sympathetic consideration, pointed out that the war had raised issues not envisaged when the Liaison Committee was formed.

, A REMARKABLE CRIMINAL Assuming that the report or Urke Nakhalnik's death at Otwock, Poland, at the hands of the Nazis is true, we might take occasion to say that Farbarowicz, or as he was known in the underworld of Poland, "Urke Nakhalnlk" ("ace crook") was the author of the best criminal memoirs I have ever read. This autobiography (up to his release from prison) appeared in Yiddish and in Poland with an Introduction by a- Polish professor of psychology, who pointed out the sociological value of the work. . It was my Intention to bring out the memoirs In an English translation and to this end received Urke's authorization, but after translating part of the volume I-doubted the wisdom of promulgating the dessription of the JewlBh? underworld at this time.

Perhaps, too, it was just as well that' the publishers to whom a sample of Che manuscript was submitted were not so keen as I was about the merits of the work. ' Nevertheless, I am quite convinced that Urke Nakhalnlk was an observant and reflective individual with an unusual sense of 'humor; and I still contend that th» autobiographies extant in English by such characters cannot compare with Urke Nakhalnik's Mein Lebensveg.

Budapest (WNS) — In order to aid Jewish, actors, artists and writers who have not been admitted to the Stage Chamber or are otherwise deprived of the possibility of earning a living in consequence of anti-Jewish laws, the Cultural S o c i ety of Budapest's Jewish community has acted to alleviate the situation.

A club has been formed, membership fees serving to pay regular salaries to destitute artists who, in return, hold r e g u l a r weekly theatrical p e r t ormances and concerts for members. Since these are international affairs the Stage Chamber is said to be unble to interfere with the performances.

As vraraing to the Jews that the expulsion would begin in earnest on tue first of tiie month, the Gestapo loaded several hundred Jews 00 two cattle trains and transported them to an unknown destination, reports said. These Jew* were said to be all of Polish origin.

In preparation for the mass expulsions, all Jews in the Protectorate were ordered to submit to the Gestapo within 24 hours detailed lists of their belongings.

Germans were told they cowld select any Jewish house they wished to move into and occupants were evicted on a few hours' notice from those houses chosen by Germans.
