Waldman, secretary of. the American Jewish Committee.

elected honorary vice-presidents.

Leasing J. Itosenwald, of Philadelphia, was elected a vice-president, and David 'Sulzberger, Harold K. Cuinzburg, and Walter N. Rothschild, of New York, and Milton W. King of Washington, D. C , were elected to the Executive Committee. . A special tribute to Dr.. Adler, read to delegates by Morris D. Waldman, secretary of the Committee, recalled various episodes in the history of the Committee that reflected .the traits and capacities of Dr. Adler in his leadership. He referred to him as a living synthesis of religidn, scholarship and civic responsibility.

'To Dr. Adler," Mr. Waldman said, "religion was the very cornerstone of life, Judaism the warp and woof of the fabric of Jewry. Born in the United States, long before the great influx of Europeans which began in the eighteen nineties, he was in the position, Chief Judge Irving Lehman, of the in his formative years, to absorb New York State Court of Appeals, American traditions and ideal* free and Judge Abram I. Elkus were re- from those influences that effect na-

tives «f large cosmopolitan center*.

Perhaps it it because of this environ* merit that Dr. Adler's Judaism was fortified end tlsst he realized more clearly the harmony of Judaism with Americanism, and recognized more profoundly the impress of the Jewish prophetic traditions on."early Ameri* can Puritan life and the Hebrew in* fluence on, the spiritual foundation* of American democracy."

"To him Judaism, the religion of the Jew, was the fundamental basit for the preservation of the Jewish, people; without it there was no valid reason for their existence. Though not a nationalist Jew, Dr. Adier believed that the preservation of the Jewish people wai necessary for the perpetu* tion of Judaism. He deeply felt tho bond of kinship with all Jews regardless of their lesser religious or secular differences. Neither that Jewish bond nor that Jewish loyalty could, in hi* view, conceivably conflict with loyalty and devotion to America. On the contrary they could only 'strengthen those qualities."

Perhaps the best prize Hollywood acquired from the French "flitskrieg" is Rene Clair, greatest film director in France. And we have It on good authority . . . he's one of Our Boys. Best known to American audiences were his "Le Million," "A Nous La Llberte," and "The Ghost Goes Went." He's at present gracing the Universal lot, directing La Dietrich in "The Lady from NewOrleans."

Big and little ira-nozls: So Irate Is A certain powerful newspaper publisher about a film he claims was patterned after Ills life that the Hollywood air Is black with the smoke of threats and rumors.

The most serious being that he will rip MovJetown to shreds on the score of giving employment to refugees , . . and will thereby in* timidato the producer (who is not Jewish) and the studio (headed by a non-Jew) into shelving the too realistic picture.

Footprints on the sands of— Grauman's Theatre! Jack Benny this week left his trotters in the cement of the Chinese forecourt for the constant "awedificatlon" of posterity.

A newly-formed film company is taking root here—the Hollywood Yiddish Corporation—with a program to produce, four features in Yiddish . . . Moishe Oyshcr to star.

An Innocent little flower upset a sequence the other day. Director • Bernhardt, noting cornflowers in the lapels of two of his actors, instantly called a halt to the shooting.^ The Implication was too awful! In Germany, cornflowers displayed thus meant the wearer had given his contribution to the Nazi party.

Walter Wanger, the Prophet!

Six months ago, in filming "Foreign Correspondent," the producer Inserted a bombing scene of a London radio station for dramatic effect. A few days ago the fiction was fact at the British Broadcasting Station.

"Sciplo Africanus," the s(t)uper-colossal mado by Mussolini's boys, is again banned in Mexico.

The Confederation of Mexican Workers blacklisted it two years ago . . . then recently rescinded their ruling. It was set to open, when the employees of the theatre went on strike, declaring the picture is outright Fascist propaganda.

Peruvians ', . . suddenly aware of the Nazistic stain of its entire censorship board . : . ' . threw out the whole caboodle . . . and the President 'appointed a new group.

Little beads of sunshine—and rain: On a Hollywood corner is a drive-in food emporium titled, "Kpis Essen." And we note with appreciation that Italian olives are now called Greek olives. Chlcd Marx is being Bued for $15,000 . . , Plaintiff claims he tripped over the comic's legs at a Hollywood theatre; John Garfield was seen buying tickets for a bunch of goggly-eyed kids standing in front of a movie house.,. Several New York papers have discontinued reviews on all foreign films except the French. One writer asserts there are 1200 theatres In the U. S. - showing Nazi- Fascist - made propaganda pictures!

Two of Our Brethren carry off acting honors in "Tall, Dark, and Handsome." Milton Juerle . . • whoso first picture was, "New Faces of 1087," In' which he flopped . . . now nag himself a new'face and rated high praise at the preview. Sheldon Leonard,- a comparative. newcomer, proved himself capable of bigger parts,

ttj At SEGAL AN AFFAIR 6 F " R A K I T N O My friend, Sam Becker the clothing man in our town, was looking at one of bis several stores and feeling happy at the way everything had turned out for him.

It was the 36th anniversary of his business and Mr. Becker was in a reminiscent mood.

On an occasion like this, Mr. Becker said, a man likes to look back at humble beginnings; in times like these he daren't look forward very far but only trust to God who has been good in all the years before.

Yes, Mr. Becker said, his busihess all began, you might say, with the pogroms that used to occur regularly in the village of " Rakitno which was not far from Kiev in Russia. Mr. Becker came ;• from Rakitno long ago.

"How did it happen that this dazzling clothing store started in the humble village of Rakitno7" I inquired.

There are a great many difficulties brought about by the chaos wrought in Europe and throughout the political world and as things now stand only the American Jewish community is in a position to assist in the transfer maintenance, and education of the children. Here is a challenge for all in this country who feel a responsibility for these Innocent victims of Nazi persecution. Since the outbreak of the war, Youth Aliyah has succeeded in bringing 1,500 children to Palestine, but there are still 1,600 boys and girls holding certificates under the April-October, 1940 Immigration Schedule (recently extended to March 31, 1941) who must be Bped on their way to the Jewish National Home.

Budapest (JTA) — Hungarian Jews breathed easier following publication of Premier Paul Teleki's speech to Parliament in which he not only ignored the "Jewish question" but entirely omitted any reference to the long-expected third anti-Jewish law in discussion of the parliamentary agenda hrough May. The premier thus strengthened the growing belief in political :ircles that Hungary's anti-Semitsm would be restricted to enforcement of the present law and no further measures would be taken as long as the war's outome remained doubtful.

Meanwhile, t h e government named a street in Nagyvarad, third largest city of Transylvania, in honor of the late Rabbi Leopold Kecskemetl, who until his death three years ago was spiritual leader of the "Neolog" Jews n Transylvania. He was strongly pro-Hungarian and anti-Zionist.

During the Rumanian occupation he was jailed on several occasions or Hungarian revisionist activities. .

The medical faculty of Debreen university sent a memorandunv to the Hungarian government condemning the practice of ircumclzlng Jewish children and urging that the operation be prohibited unless performed by Jicensed physicians. •

Jewe interned in Canada, the religious organization announced.

According to the protest, the deputy director of internment operations in Ottawa issued an order for internees in- Camp B, "in connection with internets declining labor on the Jewish sabbath." The order declared that internees must do compulsory }abor six days weekly, with Sunday, the only rest day. Punishment was proposed for violators.

An inquiry into the conduct of troops escorting interned Jews to Australia aboard the S. S. Dunera was promised by War Secretary David Margeson, replying in the' House of Commons to Col. Josiah Wedgwood, Laborlte, who said internees' luggage had been ripped open with bayonets and the internees deprived of m o n ey, watches, valuables and m u c h clothing.

War Aims

cently occurred in Italy, but at this crisis in Italian history they are significant.

Tbe other discordant note in German plans was the uprising In. Rumania. Sardonic humor lies in the announcement of the casualties of tiie Iron Guard revolt. After clays of fighting and conflietiiig reports came the terse news that a large number of. Jews had been massacred. To add another note of 'humor,' the uprising' of an antiSemitic, totalitarian-minded group is termed a revolt "inspired by Jews and Free Masons." One looks with contempt rather than pity upon this unhappy, bleeding nation which has suffered EO much within the past few months. But Rumania has always sought to solve its problems by myths rather than to face the realities of the situation.

Result of both uprisings will probably be the complete occupation of Italy and Rumania by German forces. Italian collapse at this juncture would be a eevere blow not only to the conduct of tbe war, but to the Fascist cause, for both Hitler and Mussolini have justified their regimes by claiming popular support.

Under the type of rule Hitler contemplates for Europe, the energies of Germany will be directed entirely to the task of subjugation. Eventually, perhaps, all Europeans will, become as passive as the Germans, but before that comes to pass a good deal of blood will flow. »

The achievements of the Labor Committee already in bringing to this country 400 Jewish and Labor leaders*, was reported last Week in the House of Representatives by Congressman M. Michael Edelstein of New York. In referring to the writers, scholars, and others brought temporarily to this country, Mr. Edelstein declared, "Had they not been rescued from Nazi and Soviet invaded countries, they would have faced death by the Gestapo and G. P. U. Their presence here is not only a contribution to the progress of this country, but constitutes the creation of a corps of missionaries who will return .o spread the new democracy In heir own countries."

Hundreds of leaders of liberal and Jewish life In Europe can yet be rescued by the Jewish Labor Committee if funds are made available. Dance tickets, which will help forward this worthy work may be obtained from the dance committee "or any member of 690-E, Workmen's Circle: Sol Ash, F a n n y Pezzner, Rebecca Tatalbaum and Harry Lerner.
