Washington (WNS)—President Roosevelt? was expected in political circles here to ask congress for a substantial appropriation in finance distribution of food and clothing to millions of Europe's war refugees. Italy's entry into the war, it was said, hastened the President's decision to r-eek funds for war relief.

Officials of the agricultural department said that additional funds would be needed to aid the Red-Cross in its purchase of surplus foods for shipment to Europe. The first cargo of food was scheduled to leave today for Europe.

In some quarters it was said that the President may ask Congress to appropriate from1 $59,000,000 to.$100,000,000-for war relief.

By FLORENCE ROTHSCHILD The splendid and unusual exhibit now being conducted by the Iranian Institute in New York is A source of comfort and inspiration during this troubled period in our history.

ious tolerance. Under its regime art and culture flourished.

Today too, when every bomb that falls destroys, not only human life, but also the symbols of the great cultural heritage of our civilization, when barbarian attacks are threatening the Louvre itself, it is comforting to know that every object in this remarkable exhibit is the loan of a Museum or private collector in America. At least this part of our heritage of beauty is still safe from the Nazi threat.

Because it is symbolic of the values which we must preserve $t all costs through this t i m e of crisis; because it provides a restful and inspiring haven in these times of hysteria, and finally because of the exceptional beauty of the objects that are on display, the exhibit is one which no one should overlook. It is a rare opportunity, which cannot o c c u r more than once in a life time, to view the artistic achievements of a tradition that goes back 6,000 years — a tradition with which our own heritage has had so many contacts and points of influence.

THE JEWISH PRESS

Plain TaSk It) Al REGAL OTHER REFUGEES I. used to be troubled much ; about Jewish refugees. In fact, I still am troubled about them but lately my sympathy has had to be diffused.

I beieved that in the unhappy lot of Jews, refugees were t h e ultimate of all cruelty. They were people who came to my door peddling things, or they came to my desk for help to find jobs, or they were remote people still in Germany for" whom I was asked to sign affidavits.

They had been men like my friends and neighbors — people Jiving comfortable lives., bringing up their chidren in the ways they should go, feeling deep-rooted In their native land. Then for BO reason other than that they were .Jews they had been torn out of their ancestral soil, had beep robbed of all they had gathered in the years of their toil, had been driven out to make new lives in distant lands.

Now here they were at my door; This middle-aged gentleman asking me to buy a necktie from him, this younger man hoping I may buy a dozen oranges from him.

When I looked at them I could not feel that Hitler was something remote from my house; he •was like some murdered who had come to my. door to throw the body there.

To my non-Jewish friends, as •well as to Jews, Hitler appeared to be only a Jewish problem. He •was only the curse of Jews. Even now non-Jewish friends kid me . . . "Don't worry, Segal," they say. "When the Nazis come over here we'll give you shelter in our house. We'll see that they don't get you."

Not Feeling Lately, however, I have regarded our refugees as people particularly blessed. Only l a s t evening I said to refugee Mr. M,, who was visiting at our house: "Mr, M, you are to be congratulated."

Mr. M didn't at first understand on what he was being congratulated. Nothing h a d happened to alter the difficult struggle he has had since he came here two years ago. Besides, his two children had whooping cough.

"You are to be congratulated that you are not a Belgian refugee or a French refugee fleeing before the Nazi army."

I had in mind the pictures I had seen: The thousands of Belgian women and children on the roatis seeking refuge in a world that suddeny had become full of death T death that roared out of the skies and came down with . machine guns and bombs. They used to look to the skies for God but now Hitler was there.

I remember the reports of the Red Cross I had read: Women and children perishing on t h e 'roads....- . thousands of children lost from their parents . . . hunger .-..- . families separated and many never to be brought together again. In time, if and when they are allowed to return

to their villages, they will find only heaps of rubble where their habitations stood.

"Yes, Mr. M, you are to be congratuated on being a refugee who has suffered no more than being robbed of everything save his

has come to you in your house.

The way to do something is forthwith to send a contribution to the nearest Red Cross office. By this we may help to perform something of the miracle for which we wait so despairingly from God—at least the miracle that will succor these innocent. I am bemused by the wistful face of the lost refugee child I saw in the movie.

It may be that God for whom people have been searching in vain in this darkness is not far off, after all. He may be in their hearts.

wife, his children and his good character."

Our refugees often are desperately poor but t h e y have the goodness of America, its generosity, its decency, its justice.

Should Aid Red Cross I am dedicating this entire column to the generosity of American Jews which should flow freely to the Red; Cross for the war (Copyright, 1940, by Seven Arts refugees of Europe. We have Feature. Syndicate.) done w e l l or our own during these seven years, and they still need us. But I have just been reading the report of a Belgian refugee, Professor Fernand Rigot: "On the way we passed a MORJUE ADLER child pushing his grandfather cramped into a baby carriage; an old man w^s wheeling: his blind STANDINGS and aged wife in a wheel-barrow; W.

By DR. THEODORE H. LEWIS Rabfci, Progressive Synagogue, Uros>klyns H. Y. PILGR1MK TO PALESTINE AND OTHER STORIES. BL1IA EHRLICH LEVINGER, JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY, 374 PAGES.

I

ii!

Blraa Ehrlich Levinger lias written much and well for American Jewish youth. Her many readers will delight with her latest volume of interesting stories and one which constitutes a welcomed addition to the existing meager literature for American Jewish youth.

The twenty stories or more fall Into four groups. 1) America the Beautiful; 2) Pilgrims to Palestine; 3) Back to the Homeland; 4) Jews in Far Off Lands. The one hundred pages devoted to Palestine which justly give the book its title because they are among the best, will increase the child's appreciation of the great role Palestine has played ia the history of his people, and the yet greater role it is destined to play in the rebirth of Israel and Judaism.

The first part of the Palestine narratives, "Pilgrims to Palestine," portrays the yearning for and pilgrimage to the Holy Land of three popular Jewish figures.

Jehuda Halevi, of course, is the most important of these, and the record of his visit is the most moving. The author wisely incorporates in "The Poet Who Came from Afar" some of the verses .this master singer in Israel wrote and in which he expressed his deathless love for Palestine. It is good to remember, and it is important that our children remember these unforgettable words— "Zion.wllt thou not ask if peace's wing Shadows the Captives that ensue thy peace, Left lonely from thine ancient shepherding?

Lo!

west and east and north and south—world-wide - All those from far and near, without surcease, Salute thee: Peace and Peace from every side." and these— "And who will make me wings that I may fly, That I may take my broken . beart away And lay its ruins where thy ruins lie?

II

ProBtrate upon thine earth, I fain would trust Myself, delighting in thy stones, and lay Exceeding tender hold upon thy dust."

Thus do loyal Jews speak of the ancient homeland.

"Back to the Homeland'1 includes episodes from modern Palestine and the new Jewish life which has so remarkaby transformed the land. The link between the old. and the new Palestine is thus maintained. • "Jews in Far-off Lands" deals with Jewish life in some of the distant corners of the world and will serve to acquaint the American Jewish child with the.ways and manners of his brethren in distant strange countries.

The stories have appeared in several magazines, and- in book form they are certain to entertain and benefit their readers for many years to come.

However, what is lost in this instance is abundantly compensated for by the rich contents.

To adequately summarize the book is difficult. It is the story of a Jewish community from tlie Roman period, through the Middle Ages and modern times. The relationship of the community to the Christian group, the bitter opposition of the Church leaders, the hostile attitude of the ««ivic authorites, are analyzed in detail and in most restricted manner.

Historical facts are given, without embellishment. Absorbing is the account of the magnificent inner life of the community, and how its leaders defeated the opponents of Israel with spiritual weapons alone. Every phase of Jewish existence — economic, social and political—is examined with clarity and insight. Though the entire volume makes interesting though melancholy reading, the fourth section, "The Community in Modern Times," and dealing with such subjects as religious services and customs, the community and its rabbis, synagogues and cemeteries, Jewish communal schools, etc., will appeal particularly to those interested in current Jewish problems.

The several valuable appendices at the end of the volume— a) by-laws of the Jewish community; b) statistics on the development of the Jewish population and the Jewish community; c) Jews in the schools of Cologne; d) religious instruction in the schools of Cologne; e) Jewish antiquities—will prove of great value to the student.

The epilogue, barely touching the beginning of the decline under Hitler, closes with this challenging note of hope: "The sun rises, the sun sets. One should add that it sets in order to rise again," and Dr. Kober's words apply not only to the Jewish community in Cologne but to Jewry throughout the world, and to the whole race now suffering under the crushing attack of Nazi barbarians.

This is another interesting volume in the important Jewish Community Series issused by the Jewish Publication Society. The volume tells the story of the Jews jn Cologne, in elaborate detail, with scientific accuracy, and in a lively style. The only criticism I have is against the format, -which made necessary small type, which in turn makes the reading a task,

(Dispatches from Switzerland reaching Paris said all Jewish physicians In Germany and Austria who had been ousted from hospitals as a result- of the Nuremberg laws and prohibited from treating "Aryans" have now been ordered to report for work in Nazi military hospitals for wounded brought from the western front.)

Jewish communities in Holland and Belgium have been ordered to provide labor squads to remove debris from the invasion, t h e Chronicle said. Jewish shops and houses w e r e reported being stripped by the military, everything of value being removed.

(A Chicago Tribune dispatch from Berlin reports pictures of German Jewish refugees captured in Holland are being displayed in Berlin newspapers with captions saying "They are now awaiting punishment.")

Norway and Denmark Budapest (JTA) •— Few reprisals have been taken against the approximately 1,000 Jews remaining in German-occupied Oslo, Norway, but the 5,000 Jews of Copenhagen, Denmark, along with the 1,000 or so German Jewish refugees there are beginning to suffer, step by step, all the well known humiliations of the Nazi anti-Semitic program, according to reports of Hungarians returning from these countries. .

In Norway, they state, most German J e w i s h refugees and those Norwegian Jews who had reason to fear Nazi persecution were able to escape to Sweden before the Germans completed the o c c u p a t i o n . ••••'

Poland ' Pari9 (JTA) — Reports reaching Paris tell of new measures against Jews in German-occupied Poland.

Official Polish circles in Paris said that after a visit of Heinrich Himmler, head of the Gestapo, to Poland, a new wave of terrorism was raging in Warsaw and other cities. People were being arrested en masse, without any reason being given, it was said. Women were being seized on the streets and none knew whither they had disappeared.

REFUGEE JEWS MAY BE SHIPPED TO NAZI POLAND (Continued from Page 1.)

600 refugees with American visas and 325 with Dominican entry permits in various parts of Europe whose immediate emigation depended on being able to cross Italy, in addition to refugees with visas for other countries. American and Dominican diplomatic officials had been making strenuous efforts to obtain a lifting of the transit ban.

With Italy's entry into the conflict, the Mediterranean is drawn into the war arena and the pos. bibility exists of attack on Palestine. , For the past several months the Holy Land has been rushing defense preparations, including nation-wide blackout, preparation for exacuation of civilians from coastal cities if necessary and other precautions. Although Premier Benito Mussolini, in his speech in Home today, indicated that he was trying to localize bis participation in the war to western Europe, the possibility of Palestine's becoming involved must be reckoned with.

Jerusalem (WNS-Palcor Agency) — The type of unit which the Jewish Agency had declared itself ready to mobilize for the British army was not Intended to be a separate outfit but an integral part of the British forces. Moshe Shertok, head of the Jewish Agency political department, explained at a press conference here.

The statement which War Secretary Anthony Eden made in the House of Commons on May 23 with regard to the proposed Jewish unit had aroused a wrong impression, Mr. Shertok declared.

It was true that the Jews had not offered to establish a mechanized formation at their own expense; Diesendruck, profesbut they had actually proposed a sorDr.of Zevl Jewish Philosophy at Hemilitary unit of which the govern- brew Union College, Cincinnati, ment was aware.

trained scholar when he went to Mayence, but he knew that he could find th'ere a d v a n c e d methods and f u l l e r traditions.

Golden Mayence, & main center of commerce and traffic, and beautiful traditioES. Golden Mayeace, a main center of commerce and traffic, and beautiful Worms, one of the Imperial capitals, were in continuous communication w i t h Italy a n d received through the scholars of R o m e treasures of comments and responsa from the ancient sources of Jewish learning in Babylonia and Eretz Israel.

It is evident that Rashi availed himself of all these sources. He was not a bookworm, confining himself to his library. He travelled about with open eyes, observing the everyday life of the town, viewing the ways of the farmer, the artisan and the merchant. In Rashi's busy home town of Troyes he saw well-attended fairs and rich stores of merchandise. He watched, he inquired, he attendd what he saw and found explanations for m a n y secrete of his texts.

People who have clear minds know how.to express themselves well. Rashi was able to flex the Hebrew language and to enrich it.

Besides being a great commentator, he was a master builder of the Hebrew style of the Middle Ages. It is for purposes of clearness that he employed the numerous foreign words in his commentaries. His intention was not to make our generation boast of our possible contribution to French philology, but to remind his con. temporary readers of the corresponding words in t h e i r mother tongue. He saw his task as one

primarily of clarification.

Humility of Great Man In his commentary on the Pentateuch, Rashi was not as definite and as restrained in his exegesia as in his ether works. One fine day hie grandson, Samuel ben Meir, dared to utter openly his dissatisfaction with his grandfather's antiquated m e t h o d . The aged scholar did not repulse the youngster, but confessed frankly that he was right, and that in reality, were he not too busy, he would rewrite the book. This Is the true humility of a great man, quite in accordance with what we read elsewhere of Rashi's noble character.

Tfae Jewish people hare pronounced a different Judgment on the book. It adopted Rashi's commentary on the Pentateuch just as it was, as one of the most fas* cinating works of Jewish literature and as one of most effective educators. Even in Spain, where there were broader foundations for Biblical study, Rashi'a interpretations were acknowledged and embodied in the source books.

Right up to our day, Jewish learn* ing begins with Rashi's common* tary on the Pentateuch, and many a man among us is proud to have " l e a r n e d with Rashi" in h> youth.

Rashl was less successful with his commentary on the Prophet* and the Hagographa, partly because its text was too concise, partly because these books were neglected in Jewish studies. On the other hand, his explanation of the Talmud became part and parcel of this great work, which with very few exceptions, was never printed without the commentary.

Twenty-years ago, ' Dr. Cyrus Adler took a particular liking to a clear-eyed, clear-headed young student at the Jewish Theological Seminary, The liking ripened into one of those friendships between an o l d e r and a younger man which are as fine a flower of humanity as the world has to offer.

The young man became rabbi of a Bronx congregation. A few years later, when an opening occurred, Dr. Adler offered him a lectureship at the Seminary. Thus, in 1919, Louis Ftnkelstein entered upon the career of religious teaching which has brought him today to the desk where Dr. Adler, until a few weeks ago, guided the great rabbinical Institution and, to no small degree, American Jewry.

- To say that Dr. Adler's mantle has fallen on Dr. Finkelstein's shoulders is something more than rhetoric. At the age of 45, he had achieved renown as religious leader, as educator, as a sound scholar with a fresh and 1 i v o Tlewpoint, even before his elevation from the post of Provost, Dr. Adler's second-in-command at the Seminary to the presidency. And be bas no doubt he is moving along the path charted by Dr. Adler and by Dr. Solomon Schechter before him.

Battle of Ideas That path is one of preparation

by America and American Jewry to fight Nazism, not on the battleground of guns and bombs, but of ideas. Put in that way, It may sound like a limited objective, but as Dr. Finkelstein analyzes it, It is all embracing. It is, he explained In an interview with the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, a task on which depends the survival of civilization. f LVI"

.

It is now generally realized, he said, as at first it was not, that the Nazi attack on the Jews was the opening maneuver in the cam' paign to divide the forces of democracy, in order to win world domination. He hopes that the realization has not come too late.

There remain two spheres in which Nazism must be opposed, as Dr. Finkelstein sees it: that of physical conquest a n d that of Ideas, "the defense of American institutions,against an American Hitler."

"A victory of Nazism in the ideational sphere," Dr. Finkelsald, ' 'would be as disastrous as a military victory in . France or • England."

It is here, he believes, that Jew- lsh leadership has i responsibility - to serve the whole of civilization.

And in order to serve, he said, it must unite.

V'Tho Nazis, he pointed out, en- joy- an apparent advantage over democracy of unity, even though a forced unity. We, he said, must attain v o l u n t a r y "Democratic unity."

calm and reasoned discussion, "they developed a vast respect for one another.'' • "The trouble is, they so seldom get together," he said.

There are hopeful signs in the domain of cooperation between Jewish and Christian leaders, too, Dr. Finkelstein said. Leaders of various religious denominations and various scientific groups realize the menace of Nazi ideology, he said, " and we have had more signs of wiling cooperating between these groups during the past year than would have been thought possible ten years ago."

Fellowship In the Seminary's Institute of Interdenominational Studies, Dr. Finkelstein said, rabbis and clergymen discuss the world crisis as a common problem, not in a spirit of "tolerance," but of fellowship.

By arranging lnterfaith conferences of clergymen and_ rabbis, and of Christian and Jewish theological students, by intra-Jewl&h meeting of rabbis, educators and other groups, and of students of varying ideas., the Seminary is making its own contribution to the understanding which is a prerequisite to unity, Dr. Finkelstein said.

Moreover, he a d d e d , he has made a practice of consulting with Orthodox and Reformed rabbis in matters of common interest. The Seminary is trying to contribute to the training of Jewish lay leadership by conferences on Jewish problems whose object Is not to pass resolutions, but to exchange i d e a s and educate the participants.

"Cooperation with men of other groups," Dr. Finkelstein said, "lnv o 1 v e s a deeper understanding and better appreciation of one's own tradition. Judaism Is a vital factor in modern civilization; and one of the ways in which wo can best contribute to the preservation of civilization is to strain every effort toward the preservation of Judaism.

"This involves far greater sacrifices than any of us have yet begun to make on behalf of Jewish life, as well as the further development of the Yishub in Palestine.

Must Understand Crisis "At the same time, we shall be called upon as citizens of America Jio contribute our share to the national defense, and as human being to help rescue the suffering in stricken countries. For the first time, we shall be called upon to give for spiritual causes, not from our superfluities, but from what

we have come to regard as necessities. . - • • : .

"But that will not be all. We shall have to give serious thought to understanding the nature of the world crisis, |or each* one of us shall have to contribute to the saving of civilization,, as each Nazi is contributing to its destruction.

"There are people who maintain that the hope for such a voluntary sacrifice on the p a r t of civilized men is visionary, and that we can defeat Hitler only by adopting Hitler's methods. If that is true,' the outlook for civilization is dark indeed; for it means, no matter what will be the outcome on the field of battle, the struggle for freedom and civilization has been lost.

"Jewish history, however, off e r s evidence to the contrary.

There never has been a dictator in Judaism, and certainly the defense of the Jewish faith in the last twenty-five hundred y e a r s has been entirely voluntary on the part of each individual. Nevertheless, the sacrifices made by our ancestors in time, energy, means, and life, on behalf of their faith, have been far greater than those which even the Nazis make for their Ideologies.

"The question before us, then, remains: Does the ancient Jewish spirit still live?"

Davidson, president of the Nebraska P o w e r Company, returning this week from the annual meeting of the Edison Elect r i c Institute in Atlantic City City stated that the electric industry went on record in connection with national d e f e n s e the same as the company did a week ago.

"The electric industry, nationwide, went on record pledging full support to the nation in the national defense program," said Mr. Davidson. "The same as the Ne-

Cooperation Needed There can be, and must be, Dr. Finkelstein said, a reversal of the • trend toward growing separation among rabbis, educators and social workers, between rabbis and laymen. Orthodox, conservative and reformed groups must learn to cooperate, he added. Cooperation must be established '.'between those who are interestd in survival of Judaism, and those who are interested in survival of the Jews.',' • Finally, Dr. Finkelstein said, f!the situation cannot be permitted to continue in which so many Jews a,re outside the synagogue."

In order to bring them in, those concerned must cooperate.

It isn't Impossible, Dr. Finkelstein is sure. He said the Seminary had arranged educational sessions In .which members of diverse Jewish groups participated, and that in an atmosphere of
