When the Nazi-made picture, "Dr. Koch," was scheduled for showing here at the Pacific Electric Club, a crowd gathered outside protesting . . . the riot squad was called . . . but the film was cancelled. Elsewhere Nazi pictures continue to go on unhampered . . . often uncensored . . . as in the case of "Sieg im Westen," which got through the British blockade by way of France, Africa, Rio and New York. The Anti-Nazi League is protesting that the film should be subject to censorship, maintaining it is not a new&reel. In Philadelphia the German version of the conquest of Norway was screened for an audience which hissed the Statue of Liberty and applauded the Nazis. Officials of the Bund were called to account by the censor board for exhibiting a foreign film without the board's okay.

Zeta Beta Tau Lincoln (Special) —• A l p h a Theta chapter of Zeta Beta Tau celebrated its annual Parents' day last Sunday at an open house and dinner at which the houst entertained approximately seventy-five guests. The dinner was followed by a meeting of the Mothers' club. Roses were given to all of the mothers. Leonard Goldstein was recently reelected to the Student Union Board. This board controls the management and policy of the university student union. After a brilliant one-hit pitching feat by Joe Kirshenbaum, Zeta Beta Tau's baseball team met defeat in a heartbreaking 3 to 2 loss to Delta Upsilon. This game, which was a play-off of a three-way league tie, eliminated the ZBT's and ended their aspirations for the baseball title. Scholarship was again upheld by Zeta Beta Tau, for the house placed t h i r d in scholarship among all fraternities on t h e campus. . Last year ZBT finished second and have hopes of even a higher record for the present semester. This week the debate team, composed of Robert Passer and Yale Gotsdlner, will meet Delta Upsilon in the semi-finals of the intramural debate tournament. At meeting last Monday night a plaque w a s awarded to the sophomore class for outstanding all-around work for the house during the past year.

The Philanthropies Campaign The course of the current Jewish Philanthropies campaign lias been a source of great pride and satisfaction to our community. From the chairman, "who lias infused the drive with a spirit of sincere understanding and sacrifice, to the workers in the field, there has been an almost prophetic seal to accomplish a purpose. The smallest giver and the largest has evinced a genuine desire to share with the less fortunate of our people. The goal to some has seemed staggering and still remains to be raised, but the desire to raise whatever sum is asked, is firmly implanted In the hearts of every Omaha Jew. The people of the community may 4)6-proud of their part in this campaign. They have responded generously and sympathetically. The pleas of the suffering have not fallen on deaf ears, nor have any been content to close their eyes to the horrible plight of our brethren overseas. Milton Livingston, the chairman, has inspired his associates in the campaign by his unremitting efforts, his deep appreciation of the work the funds will further, and by his own generosity. Omaha was extremely fortunate that he envisioned the need enough to take time from his own personal affairs to lead the drive at so critical a moment. Much of the success of what has been done is due to the spirit he brought. The same may be said of his assistants. It is not for us as a community to be smug or self-satisfied over any achievement. We in America are a blessed people. Certainly not one person will be inconvenienced in the slightest by his gift to the Philanthropies. To us has been given the obligation to help and by giving we are doing- no more than our duty. The full sum remains to be pledged, but Omaha Jewry will not fail when the goal is so close to fulfillment.
The Youth Conclave
control of the rich resources of tliis region and in doing £o fliut Britain from a source ©f oil and agricultur&l products. TLe Jews of Palestine know one thing. They will fight to the titter end if the Nazis attack them, because they are aware they can expect n'o mercy frcia Hitler. If he conquers the country, it will be a greater disaster than Titus' victory. But the Jews have BO intentions of giving in. They iiave no intentions of being put on the rocky road ot exiie once more or of seeing their hopes and dreams brought down. For them there is no alternative but to fight to their utmost to impede the German advance. But even in the face of 60 grave a danger, Palestine has not given up faith or hope in its cause. Ttumors of rioting in the country are unfounded and tbe Arab population has remained loyal to Britain. The whole nation is preparing not only for war, but also for the peace. They have not hesitated in their struggle to make Palestine a haven for the oppressed and once again the land of milk and honey. In the threat of war, they have strengthened their defenses. Recruiting is going ahead for a defense corps to fill the ranks of the thousands who are fighting with the Anzacs in the Egyptian and Lybian deserts.. Air-raid shelters are being prepared in Tel Aviv and In Jerusalem, the city of peace. At the same time, new industries are being established, new colonies opened, new forests planted. The Anzac troops stationed in Palestine have entered Into this spirit of construction by themselves planting trees in memory of a pleasant stay. This spirit cannot be ruthlessly uprooted by all the Panzer divisions a deranged tyrant can mobilize. Not all the bombs from the sky nor all the death and destruction a devil can devise will stay the hand of the Jews in their desire to build anew the Land of Israel.
Return of Haile Selassie Despite the gloom of the present critical world situation, there is something very cheering in the reports from East Africa that Haile Selassie has returned to his remote capital of Addis Ababa. The Negus was the first victim of the series of aggressions that culminated in the present world struggle. His capital was the first to suffer from the bombs of the totalltarians. And he is the first to return in triumph. The Ethiopian war, which once hogged the headlines, seems far removed from what is happening today. Yet Italy's aggression of that African kingdom was the first indication of the course of world events. Had the leaders of France and England been men of vision, Ethiopia would never have been conquered. The common people of the democracies were more far-sightd than their socalled statesmen, and it was they who demanded a halt to this aggressive action. But the people were betrayed by a handful of selfish, men who had their own interest at heart. With the unashamed connivance of that evilest of Europeans, Pierre Laval, the Independence of Ethiopia was violated and its persevering emperor sent into exile. « , Strengthening the hand of Laval was Sir Samuel Hoare, the present British ambassador to Spain, who in his own well-bred manner cut Ethiopia's throat. Paul .Baudoin, another of the men of yichy, was an undercover man in France for Mussolini. In condoning and even assisting the violation of Ethiopia, these men* likewise weakened the League of Nations, the only institution capable of bringing permanent peace to Europe. Between Italy and the Negus, was for the people of Ethiopia like being between the devil and the deep blue sea. One need only read the revealing chapters on Ethiopia in van Paassen's "Days of Our Years" to see that Haile Selassie was a tyrant In his own -way. This was never, a ques tipn of a democracy against totalitarianism. This was no Ideological conflict. But it was the right of a small nation to survive and preserve its Independence against the thievish instincts of a neighbor. ' Ethiopia is once more an independent kingdom, than>2 to the assistance of the British army and to the perseverance of the Emperor. Justice has come, belatedly, but it has come and even in this dark hour, the world still has reason to hope that justice will eventually triumph wherever it has been betrayed. .
Sunday will see the gathering in Omaha of the Jewish Youth of the Midwest for their first annual youth conclave. This meeting is only a phase in the larger program for our young people — a program designed to make them good Americans /and good Jews, to enable them to fulfill their obligations to nation and religion, to give them the opportunity to contribute to the well-being of all. People are sometimes tempted to compare the position of the youth of America with those of Europe, particularly Russia and Germany where all young people are in the service of the state. There is something a little awe-inspiring in these mass demonstrations that occur in the great squares of Berlin and Rome and Moscow. Some are impressed and think that the problems of youth are solved by shaping them into an arbitrary, subservient pattern. But these same people fail to realize that the"-problem? these young people will have to face in the years ahead will not be solved by ^startling designs or demonstrations. What we in. America are attempting to do is not raise a generation of slaves, dependent for .their thinking on a chosen few. We are anxious to develop well-rounded personalities—people who are mentally balanced, who are capable of meeting the manifold problems of life with intelligence. We have, all of us, become a little too im - patient with methods of this sort. In a world where a tyrant's word Is capable of sending mil lions to their doom, we are apt to think conclaves and discussions a little out-moded. But it is well i to remember that wo are building for generations ahead, not for the conquests our armies must make tomorrow. We are thinking of the men and worn en of the future and their children. We are thinking not in the terms of an aggregation of people but of individual. human beings. From their social gatherings and discussions, the young people who come Irere Sunday will en rich their lives a little more, they will whet their Rosh Chbden Sivanf. .Tuesday, May appetites for iripre knowledge.

MBLK He that goefh about, talebearing revealed* secrets; therefore meddle not with him that openeth wide his lips. The thought of the diligent tend only to pleiitiousness but every one that is hasty hasteth only to want. It is better to dwell in a desert and than with a contentious and fretful woman. Fret not thyself because of evildoers; neither be tbou envious at he wicked, for there will be no future to tbe evil man and the lamp of the wicked shall be put out. TALMUD Rabbi Abuha and Rabbi Cniya happened to meet in a certain place. Rabbi Abuha lectured on Agoda (legends). Rabbi Chlya lectured concerning Halacha (traditions). Tbe consequence was that the audience left Kabbi Chiya and ame to hear the legends of Rabbi Abuha. This caused the former to feel indignant. Whereupon Rabbi Abuha said to the audience, "I shall give you a parable. Thig may be likened unto two men who entered a town. One sold precious stones and pearls while the other was selling junk. Who was the busiest? Surely the junk man had more customers." Rabbi Elazer said, "Every man who possesses the habit of flattery will fall in Gehinnam. With the death of Rabbi Joshua, real thinking and planning came to naught. With the death of Rabbi Akiba, deep scholarship ceased, and the fountain of wisdom stopped off. With the death of Rabbi Chanim, there ceased men of action. With the death of Rabbi Jose, real piousness ceased. With the death of Rabbi Maier, the composing of fables ceased. With the death of Ben Az'zai, devotional study of the Torah ceased. With the death of Ben Zoma, real expounders of the Torah ceased. With the death of Rabbi Jochanan, the glory of l e a r n i n g ceased.

Even this method was an affront to the new, icy German efficiency and economy. They avoided all expense whatsoever by injecting an air bubble into the arteries, causing death when it reached the heart. While the story in harrowing enough as it is, this writer is convinced that it is «n)y (he beginning. If the Nazis kill their o m old and sick, so that they will BOt be forced to feed them, wbat will they do to the old and sick of tbe other nations of Europe? It is not at all unlikely t h a t when the inhuman beasts have finished organizing their "n e w order" the human being - - except for German "Aryans" who are both young and healthy — will be viewed not in the light of a human being at all, but as a producing machine. And just as a machine is scrapped when its cogs become worn, BO will tbe Europeans who have knuckled tinder to Hitler's "new order" be scrap* ped in the twilight of their productive life. There ere other dangers in the N&zi euthanasia plan which have not been spoken of, bat which most certainly exist, If the Ges* tepo is still the Gestapo. Imagine, if you will, that Otto Krause, the middle-aged bead of a German university, but a lukewarm Nazi, is head of a univer* sity. The first day that Prof* Krause goes to a hospital for a minor operation the Gestapo visits him. "Poor Otto!" says tbe Gestapo captain, shaking his bead, "you look very ill. Bat I can assure yon that it will be painless." If Prof. Krause protests, he will be told that he is giving his life for the State, for the Nazi attitude on euthanasia is this: "If young men, fighting for their country are forced to die In the field, why shouldn't older men who perform no useful work for the State also die for their country?" I regret to report that since the meager details of Hitler's enforced euthanasia leaked oat, I have heard a number of g o o d Americans say they thought euthanasia wasn't a bad idea. They saw a good deal of logic in it.

Thousands of young Palestine Jews bare enlisted in the armed forces a* a result of the Joint proclamation issued by the Jewish Agency for Palestine and the Jewish National Council (Vaad Leuml), Steps will probably be taken against unmarried Jews, between the ages of 20 and 30, who failed to enlist. " The attitude of the entire Yishur was reflected at a meeting of colonists at Beer Tuvia where action was takun to empower the colony's local council to punish unmarried men of military age who "are not ashamed to avoid the call of Jewish Institutions for enlistment."

Rokach, president of the Jewish Medical Association, reported that 78 Jewish doctors have already volunteered for A. R. P. duty while many others were expected to join soon. A meeting of t h e Palestine Zionist General Jewish Council endorsed t h e Jewish Agency's call for compulsory military service.

THE JEWISH PRESS
Chief Rabbi Herzog By Solomon Kerstein (UditorVNoto: Or. Isaac Halevi Herzog, Chief Rabbi of Palestine, recently arrived in the United States to seek support for the forces of orthodoxy and the rescue of rabbis and students in Europe. la this Interview he expounds his views on religious questions and foresees Palestine as the center of religious authority for the Jews of the world.) The reasons which prompted Chief Rabbi Isaac Halevl Herzog to undertake the perilous voyage from Palestine to America formed the main subject of an interview which he granted me. I asked him several questions on some of the most vital problems of Jews and Judaism today and the answers he gave me will help to throw light on the complexity of the problems with which our cultural ftnd spiritual life is confronted. My first question to Rabbi Hertog was on the aims and the functions of the office of the Chief Rabbinate and on the effect this office has had on the Jew-. ish community in Palestine. Rabbi Herzog said: . "The task of the Chief Rabbinate is to serve as the supreme religious authority of the Jewish homeland. The office carries out Its task in a measure which makes its influence felt among all classes of the Jewish population and in government circles in Jerusalem and in London. "The Palestine Chief Rabbinate was jointly elected by the Jewish communities and the rabbis of the Holy Land, and the election was confirmed by a special orderin-councll of the government, The Jurisdiction granted the C h i e f Rabbinate extends over such matters as the personal status In marital and domestic relations, marriage, divorce, separation, succession, guardianship, etc. Within •• the limits of that jurisdiction, tho decisions and sanctions of t h e rabbinical tribunals( beth<• din) or of the offices of the rab. binate where such tribunals of ' three rabbis do not exist, are legally binding without requiring . any sanction by the government coutrs. However, such decisions by courts of the first instance are subject to appeal before the High Court (Beth-Din Hagadol) of the . Palestine Chief Rabbinate situated in Jerusalem. Appeals a r e •heard twice a week," on Mondays *and Thursdays, in the presence of "the Chief Rabbi and two of the "members of the rabbinate. The language of procedure is usually ' Hebrew, but the use of other languages is permitted when necessity arises. Noted for Scholarship "Naturally the men chosen for • the Chief Rabbinate are renown. ed for their scholarship and piety. , It Is to be hoped that the pres•Jt tige of the office will grow and that in time the authority of the Chief Rabbinate will be recog. nized throughout tho Jewish comjmunities of the world and' that it 'will, h e l p to promote harmony among the Jews loyal to our traj flitlon. It Is also hoped that the i] number of members of the Chief .] Rabbinate will in'time'be increas•i[ ed beyond the present number of -| eight., I may add that Jerusalem tit is already a center of traditional J Jewish scholarship which has no /1! rival anywhere in the Diaspora.
This applies not only to the presnt moment, after the destruction of the Polish community and its centers of learning, but even to the days before the outbreak of the present war. Every day brings o the Holy Land famous Jewish scholars from abroad. "American Jewry ought to take a special interest in this imporant religious institution. T h e Chief Rabbinate must be assisted n insuring the economic position of its members, in erecting a proper structure to house the High Court so that it may command the prestige befitting such an institution. The present quarers in a rented nouse are hardly becoming." "What do you think of the favorite project of the Mizrachi," I asked Rabbi Herzog, "to convene in Jerusalem, after the war, a congress of Orthodox Jewry, with a view ot introducing unity in the ranks of traditional Judaism?" Rabbi Herzog asserted: "Needess to say, I am'very enthusias;ic over the idea of a world orthodox Jewish conclave in Jerusalem, to take place after the war and to be composed of the representatives of the orthodox rabbinate and ot recognized traditional Jewish communal organizations throughout the \ world. The proposed congress w o u l d have to settle all differences, to awaken an enthusiastic response in the ranks of loyal Jews and to unite the forces of traditional Judaism. I want to call upon all our loyal berthren all over the world to unite, to divest themselves of the petty squabbles and factiousness and to band themselves together for the sake of Him that dwelleth in Zion, to organize for work in behalf of our Torah and our faith. We must give support and insure the existence of our yeshivas and other institutions of learning; we must organize for the observance of the Sabbath, of kashruth aud of the sanctity of the home; so hat we may, with God's help, find strength to build together a Jewish Homeland in- Palestine based on the principles of the Holy Torah." Traditional Judaism and the • Political Situation # ;. "How far, in your opinion," I asked the. distinguished visitor, "could the Chief Rabbinate, as ;he representative body of rellgous Jewry, exert its influence on
the -political situation after the war when the terms of peace are discussed?" Here the Chief Rabbi Indicated in brief his plans for the near future: "It is of the utmost importance for traditional Jewry t h a t the Chief Rabbinate for Palestine should take its proper place iu the representation of the Jewish people at the peace conference after the war. The Chief Rabbinate has men who are fit to represent the Jews aud to lend prestige to Jewish representation. Needless to say, it is of vital importance for the Jews that the interest of orthodoxy in the religious and communal life of the Jews both in Palestine and in the Diaspora should be represented." "What is the aim of your trip to America?" I inquired. He replied: "The main object of my trip is, generally speaking, well known. Since the outbreak of the war I have b e e n making efforts to make it possible for the yeshivos of Lithuania and Poland to be transplanted into the Holy Land. It is the sacred duty of our brethren in America to salvage what can be salvaged from the terrible conflagration. Only two countries —Palestine and the United States of America—can be counted on in any project of this kind, Bring as many as you can into America, but it is impossible to bring all the rabbis and students of the yeshivos Into this country within a short space of time, and the time is very urgent. Nor do I think it w o u l d be possible to bring all of them Into Palestine in so short a time. Between the two countries, however ,a large number of scholars could bo saved. _ "I submitted a petition to the Palestine government asking for 1,500 certificates for students and 250 certificates for rabbis. In order to obtain the certificates for tho students, I must secure fui\ds sufficient to assure their subsistence for a period of time. I must also find money for their traveling. I require a sum of at least $400,000, "I am also very much concerned with the fate of the educational and charitable institutions of the old ylshuv. These Institutions, which have been in existence for mails' years, are now in a terrible pUgluv^Their sources of revenue from Europe h a v o
been stopped by the war, while, I am sorry to say, even the support from America is becoming increasingly meager. We must not neglect these mainstays of religious life in Palestine nor the sources of livelihood for its most loyal and steadfast members, I should like to repeat what I have already said—that our brethren in America are in the same position as Joseph was when Providence sent Mm on to Egypt so that he might be of sustenance and succor to his brethren, I now call upon you, Jews of America, in this most tragic of times in the history of our people since the Destruction, to rise to the need of the great moment and to the greatness of the task placed upon this generation by Providence. May the loving kluduess of the Almighty be upon us all and may we live to see with our own eyes the full salvation of Israel and the fulfillment of the worlds of our great prophets of truth, of righteousness a n d of peace." -
