IN USUAL MANNER BY'DER STUERMER'

Amsterdam (JTA) — The usual "ritual murder" story which the German anti-Semitic weekly, Der Stuermer carries every Passover week is published in the current issue. This time, however, the story is accompanied by a threat of wholesale vengeance upon "the whole Jewish people." ) Under a big red headline, "Ritual Murder in Bo h e m i a , " the newspapers features on Its first page the story; of the alleged "mysterious death" of a 19-year-old non-Jewish girl, Marie Falcova, in the Czech town of Welhartitz on March 19,1938. ..'

All the disproved accusations of former "ritual murder" campaigns are repeated by the Stuermer and the Czech authorities are accused of not having investigated the case because of the Influence of the girl's J e w i s h employer.

"The murder of the girl Faicova." the article warns, "has not yet been revenged. But it will be revenged. The revenge will- involve the whole Jewish people."

LEND US YOUE EARS Washington insiders insist that the next German government will be a monarchy with Prince Philip von Hesse as its titular head and Hermann Goering the actual boss . . . It sounds like a slight improvement on the present set-up but what we'd like to know is when the change will come . . .

The same sources claim that the change in the British government, with Churchill replacing Chamberlain, will come late this month or early in May . . . What with the war and all, and Fritz Kuhn in jail, the Nazi Bund is in such a bad way that Hitler has sent over a special representative to reorganize it, the. story goes . . .

The reason why that German - b o r n "Christian Fronter" hanged himself, they whisper, is because he was afraid that if he ever came on the witness stand the prosecutor would draw from him enough of the story of the N a z i conspiracy in America to put the authorities on the quivive . . . Actually, however, both our G-men and the government authorities of the Latin American countries are well aware that Hitler has long been planting his spies in the W e s t e r n Hemisphere . . .

Some of our Southern neighbors have, indeed, already had occasion to thwart Nazi-inspired c o u p s d'etat . . .

Ely Culbertson, whose autobiography is causing A furore, has almost completed a new book, a mystery story • • • Then — inspired no doubt by the example of Dr. Emonuel Lasker, the chess wizard whose "Community of the Future" will be published before summer— he will settle down to write a really serious book, which he plans to call "The Structure of the Mass Mind" . . .After that he proposes to go into politics . . .

Factional disputes and battle for the control of the party macliinery led Gitlow to place his ca$e before Moscow and Stalin, where the decision went against him. He was invited to sign a confession of error which he not only refused to do, but insisted defiantly that justice was on his side.

Though Secretary of the American Party and prominent in all its councils, he was expelled. Had he been a Russian he would have been imprisoned or shot as a traitor. His American citizenship

We should be grateful to Gitlow for caving given us the key to the mysterious conduct of Soviet Russia and its stooges over the entire world, who in the United States, as everywhere else, are in the truest sense of the word conspirators, in the service of a foreign power. How to annihilate them and their pernicious influence without doing violence to the democratic tradition represents a grave problem.

Lincoln (Special.. — The Nebraska chapter of Sigma Alpha Mu last week initiated five members of the freshman class at an impressive and colorful gathering of active and alumni members of the chapter.

The initiates were: Joe Raznick, Omaha; Bob Cohen, Sioux City; Bob Bramsou, Omaha; Irving Friedman, Sioux City, and Phil Kantor, Sioux City. A banquet was served at the chapter house following initiation.

Seven men associated with the Nebraska chapter of Sigma Alpha Mu were honored this week at the annual University of Nebraska Honors convocation held Tues^ lay in the University Coliseum.

All seven men were listed for scholarship and three were listed for membership in scholarship honoraries. Listed in the ranks of the honoraries were: Maurice Tatleman, Omaha, Phi Beta Kappa; Stefan Frankel, Berlin, Sigma Xi and Sigma Tau; Ervine Green, Norfolk, Order of t h e Coif; Harold W. Civin, Omaha, Alpha Omega Alpha, and Arthur Hill, Beta Gamma Sigma.

Others who were listed for their scholarship are E d w a r d Cbalt, Paul Crounse and Melvln Tannenbaum, all of Omaha.

Melvin Tannenbaum, was this week, Initiated Into Scabbard nd Blade, military officers honorary..

Melvin is the first member of Sigma Alpha Mu to attain the membership in the organizationand one of less than half-dozen Jewish boys to make the organization since its Inception.

By INEZ h. RAZNICK In a country where the popu lation has doubled itself in six years, the service, too, must increase proportionately. This is i challenge to Hadassah's program, the opportunity to bring to Palestine's children more inclusive services which will more adequately safeguard them as future builders and citizens of the land.

But the land must be bought on which to put these children whom Hadassah is nurturing and land must be bought on which to put the people from the torture chambers of Europe. Land must be bought!

Rummage Bundles of clothing are gratefully accepted by the committee in charge of the rummage sale.

With spring cleaning on the wane there must be a great deal of discarded winter and last summer's clothing that has been brought to light by the onslaught of housewives into storage closets and seldom used shelves and drawers..

Claim Anti-Semites Aiding Nazi Spies Paris (JTA) — Agence Radio (French news agency) reported the existence in Berlin of a special department which conducts espionage activities in neutral countries through anti-Semites. Contact with the anti-Semites is made through apparently inoccuous letters which seek information on the activities of local J e w s .1 Eventually, the anti-Semites are invited to visit the Reich where, upon their arrival, they are given a warm reception.

Many of those who visit Germany in this manner, the agency said, return to their countries with instructions not only on how to improve their anti-Jewish propaganda but .also for general espionage activities.

By MORRIS C. TROPEIt

In tbis special article written for Seven Arts Feature Syndicate and The Jewish Press Morris C Troper, European director of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, describes conditions as he saw them in Europe. Mr. Troper, who during bis short visit to the United S t a t e s tbis ps£t month presented the American people with a first-hand picture of his work abroad, has again departed for the scene of bis activities.—THE EDITOR.

nto the neighboring countries when the war began, Lithuania, Rumania, Hungary and Latvia. It s in Vilna, which is now part of ithuaaia, that the greatest probem has presented itself. When he Viina situation opened up hiough cession to Lithuania, we ound a local population of 60,00 Jews and a refugee populaion of 15,000 Jews. Of the 60,00 local Jews, practically 30,00 must be supported today. We ave formed a co-ordinating comMittee in Vilna for the purpose f conducting the relief work. It as worked outt very well.

I realize how impossible it is o give you more than a skeleton utiine of the situation in Europe oday. It is my hope, however, hat from this bird's-eye picture t has become clear to you that nee again refugees-^men, womn and children—are stalking the ighways and byways of Europe, hat once again America and merican Jews are being looked o as the only source of assistance nd that once again the J. D. C, orn in war, has become a war elief organization.

Today there are hundreds of housands of our fellow-Jews on he other side of the ocean who re waiting to hear America's anwer to their question, "Will we ive or will we die?" The anwer is in the hands of American ews.

Catholic sovereigns, including Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria and Napoleon III of Prance wrote personal lettera to Pope Pius IX, beseeching him not to defy public opinion by holding the boy. S i r Moses Monteffore made a special mission to Rome without avail.

Mortara was educated in a convent, and was often p a r a d e d through the Ghetto. Later, he entered the Augustine Order, adopting the name of Pius. He preached before the Vatican Council and was sent as a missionary to Germany and to Italian Catholics in New York.

IGKES AWARDED BRANDEIS MEDAL New York (JTA) — Accepting the Brandeis Medal of The Jewish Forum, Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes declared before an audience of 400 at the Hotel Biltmore this week that "the fate of both Jews and Christians is so closely linked that one cannot be injured without serious damage to the other."

Reiterating his advocacy ot refugee settlement in Alaska, Ickes declared, "I am bound to say that Alaska would be f o r t u n a t e , as were our States in their early history, if it could absorb the talent and idealism which other nations unwisely cast out."

Max Manlschewitz, chairman of the award committee, said Ickes had been selected because he "had done much, not only in words but also In deeds, on behalf of helpless people by actually seeking a haven for the refugees."
