Some Israelis who were fami¬ liar with both the Socialist ''Schutabind" in Vienna and with th Loyalist Spaniards who f< ght against Franco, had d< bted Beer's claimed "military" background.

History Professor Tells Of Atrocities JERUSALEai, (JTA)—An American expert In Jewish history, testifying as a witness at the trial of Adolf Biclimann, the Nazi leader charged With directing the annihilation of 6,000,000 Jews In Europe, told the court that the Nazi atrocities against Jews were unprece¬ dented in all of civilized history, "Nothing like this had happened even in the Middle Ages," said Dr, Salo W, Baron, professor of Jewisli History at Columbia Univfer- sity. He emphasized that the Nazis wiped out "overnight" the achieve¬ ments of full emancipation reach¬ ed by the Jews in Europe as a result of 200 years of struggle for equal rights, UNFOLDING A map of Europe, and tracing the march of nazism from 1938 on, over various Eiiro- pean countries, Dr, Baron showed where Jews were mass-murdered in cold blood. He told the court that, if not for the holocaust, there would have been 20,000,000 Jews today throughout the world, with slightly more than half of them living in Europe, In Poland alone, where there are now only about 30,000 Jews, there were 3,300,000 before the Nazis started sending Jews to the gas cham¬ bers, he said, Thc American Jewish scholar turned the court room into a col¬ lege classroom as he recited the history of European Jewry, show¬ ing that, despite oppressions and persecutions over the centuries, the Jewish communities in Europe had made vast contributions to learning in all fields until "the Nazi movement set the clock baclt." PROFESSOR BABON stigma¬ tized the Nazi regime as a sys¬ tem that made anU-Semitlsm the official policy of a Government based on the new thesis of racial and biological anti-Semitism. "The Nuremberg Laws of 1935 intro¬ duced now elements, turning back the clock of history," he said. "The Crystal Night destruction of Jew¬ ish property and synagogues in 1938 was conducted by the official Nazi apparatus Itself, Even in the Middle Ages, Jews could retain sonic sort of order, could enjoy some rights, even If those rights were restricted. But under the Nazi regime, the Jews became a classless society." Under cross-examination by Dr, Robert Servatius, chief defense counsel, Dr, Baron dwelt on major differences between age-old anti- Semitism and the Nazi type of anti-Jewish persecution. "In an¬ cient times," said the American scholar, "the antl-Semltlc scourge was religious. But In modern times it was simply what thc sociologist calls 'dislike of the imJike,' the hatred of something different," "THERE ARE MANY other reasons, rational and irrational," said Professor Baron ,"but one fundamental difference between the millenla of anti-Semitism and the manifestations of the Nazi era is this: Never, not even during the many pogroms, did anti-Semd- tlsm result in mass-murder and genocide," Judge Binyamin Halevi asked Dr. Baron about the influence upon anti-Semitism of the notor¬ ious falsehoods, canbraeod in the so-called "Protocols of the Elders of Zion." The scholar outlined the history of this falsification, detailing its origin in Czarist Rus¬ sia. "But oniy after World War One," he said, "was it translated Into many languages, becoming a major weapon of anti-Semi¬ tism." FOLLOWING DR.

Children were play¬ ing on the sidewalks, in the play¬ grounds, in their yards and on the strets. And that's where It happened. MARCIA WAS a typical four year old, sweet, lovable, briglht, full of life. She was playing on the sidewalk in front of her home when the bail she was playing with rolled into the street. Marcia had been warned, re¬ peatedly, about wandering Into the street or onto driveways, but Marcia forgot, she was <mly four. She Went to retrieve the ball. Then It happened, A SHRIEK OF brakes, a loud thud, a still louder scream, then silence. Sirens, voices, tender hands, speed, they all played a part in saving Marcla's life. Blood was lost, so much for a little girl. Surgery was tmperltlve and sur¬ gery was performed. Tronafuaions were given, six pints, because so much had been lost at the scene of the accident and on the oper¬ ating table. And more had to be given during the post-operative period, Marcia lived for many reasons. She lived because she was sped to the necessary medical facilities to save her life. She lived because her surgeons labored hard and long and lovingly, six hours, to save her life. She lived because the blood was there to be given at thc moment it was needed, THE BLOOD was there because the Jewish community was prea¬ ent on "B" Days in the past to give . to meet the quota of the Jewish community. The needs are still there, they are great and must be met so others like Marcia may have the blood if it is ever needed, SO PLAN to give btood on"B" Day, this Wednesday, May 3, Jewish Center, noon to 6 pjn. The bloodmobile will be there and doctors and nurses will be on duty to check you, to make sure you are fit to give blood. No one who isn't wiii be permitted to donate, and if you think you cannot, come anyway and let the doctor decide. You could be wrong and your pint of blood could be the one to save others like Maroia, Remember to give blood on "B" Day, Be Sure Your Pledge To UJFC Is Paid In '61 BE BLOOD DONORS GIVE TOGETHER Watch The Chronicle For Exciting News Next Week
