Rabbi Nathan. Zelizer wit! preach at the East Broad Street Teinple the ccnn- iiig Friday evening at 8 p. in. on the'sub¬ ject—''The iNfeaning o'f Faith." Reason argument, and logic have almost .failed iu the almost unbearable task of coping with the present financial and social prob¬ lems. President Roosevelt as well as other leaders have been appealing lor a restrengthcning of our Faith as ;i means to hel|) us emerge from the crisis. What is Faith? in what way can it help us overcome our difficulties? What part did Faith play iji the progress of mankind? Snch and other questions R;ibhi Zdizer will answer fully in this interesting and timely theme,    .-Ml are .welcome.

LONDON (J, T, A.)—Since ihe vir¬ tual suppression of the German press, with the exception of the Nazi organs, Iviropcan newspapers outside Germany are'devoting a great deal of space to re¬ ports from all over the Reich. In them, stories of excesses, attacks, and imprison¬ ment are given in considerable detail.
This nioniing's London •"Times" car¬ ries a detailed rciKirl of the attack on Edward Dahlberg, the American author, whose case threatens to become a diplo- niatic issue. . It reports that Dahibcrg was beaten up in the presence of police. The "Times" goes on to say that after Dahlberg had lodged a protest with the American Consulate and had instituted proceedings against his Nazi attackers, the Nazis asked him to withdraw his com¬ plaint. The American Consulate, liow- eyer, advised him to proceed with the charge. ' , ¦
A Pestilence
Describing the appearance of Berlin's fashionable neighborhood, imrticularly iu the evenings, today's "Daily Tele¬ graph" says that "it appears to be de¬ populated, as if visited by a pestilence." It gives a great deal of detail of tlu Nazi terror and tbe ferocity with which the National Socialists are directing their campaign against the Jew.s. It says that the terror is producing a wholesale ex¬ odus of Jews from Ciermany into Aus¬ tria, Czccho-Slovakia and other iiei^^b- boriiig .countries, and enumerates a list of inen prominent in the arts and sciences, including Max Reinhardt, the noted im- l)ressario, who have escaped from Ger¬ many.
Two Jews Killed in California
Earthquake,   So   Far'
Ascertained
LOS ANGELES (J. T. A.)~-A.s far can be ascertained, there have been two Jewish fatalities in the earthtpiake that struck California last Friday night. They are Mary J. Seclig, forty'-five years of age, of Long Beach, and Frank Tobais, tliirty-five years of age, 18-7)3 Crenshaw Boulevard in Los Angeles, Tobais was killed by a faltingWall.
Among the several hundred names of those taken to the hiospital at Long Beach, there appear but a scant- dozen oi' so Jewish names. The lists, how ever, are still incomplete and it is difli cult to determine the exact number of Jcwisli casualties.
Fortunately, the quake occurred at too early an hour, in the evening to affect the worshippers in the synagogues at ,Long Beach or Los Angeles.
Dr. Heno Giittenberg, recognized as one of the world's forenmst Seismolog- ical authorities, and a member of the Iri-^ dependent Order of B'nai B'rith. maiie a trip through the stricken areas for scien¬ tific purp.oscs. He has arrived at the con- elusii.u that the eartht[uake was due to a faulting in the earth's crust, and not to any volcanic disturbance.

The Vienna press also learns that Na :i troops yesterday entered the Cologne Meat Market and ordered the immediate ^ suspeuaioii of shechita, confiscating the schechila appurtenances and forciiig jtw- i.-;li butchers to leave the market.

More   Power  To   Him
I am glad to see that so many of my readers are in agreement' with me re¬ garding the present occupant of the White House. It seems tb be the consensus of opinion of alT thinking, people tnat our, newly-clccted Chief Executive embodies in his personality the finest ideals of tilt ages. There is no question now.but that Franklin D. Roosevelt's heart beats in Iiarninny with the sul.tlinie principles ujwn which our Democracy was founded. In bis inaugural address on March -1, he pro-- claimed that hence forth the paramount function of the executive department at Washington will-he to guard the rights o;. the rank and file of '.-Vmericaii citizen-; ship without fear oi- favor. He liiade it clear (hat it was his intention to drive out the parasites ami financial barons from their dens of iniquity and compel tTicm to give an honest account of their activi- ies. lie feels that in order to restore the :onfidcnce of tbe public in our govern- inciit and in oiir busiiiess and industrial leaders a tlu7roiigli bousecleaning will have to take iilace. He has already taken the broom in his hands; he wil not lay t down until his job is complete.'. More power to him in this laudable endeavor | . Hitler At It Again The Hitlerites in Germany are plan¬ ning to eliminate their fellow-Jewish citizens frnm the theatrical profession. Just the other day Paul Barney. sUperin-¦ teiideut. of th*^ Loebe Theatre in BrcsJau, vvas carried off in a motor.car by five uni¬ formed Nazis. He was taken to a neigh- iiuriiig wood where his clothes were torn from him and he was, flogged for one- half hour wilh rubber b;itons and dog whiles. On tile..approach of police, the hooligans disappeared laeving Barney half-naked. As has been the case in other places, the Nazi leaders at Brcs- lau . oiTicially condemned the attack. At the same time, however, the "Boersen Courier" announces tliat^thc Nazi headT quarters of Breslau had taken o\'er the ; nianagcment of the LocLe Theatre dis¬ missing all Jewish employees inchiding Barney. '
Suggesting that the incident at Breslau is part of a regular plan, the Theatrical Exchange, the actors employment agency, has forced the witlulrawal of. all Jewish artists including the provincial districts, where the process of expulsion of Jew- . ish managers and actors is proceeding with the utmost vigor.
1 really cannot .see how Hitler expects to establish a sound government as long as his followers are behaving in this manner. Activities of this nature tend j to evoke the condemiiatian of all civilized countries and at the same time to create discord in Germany proper. If Hitler wants to succeed and become a real Qian- cellor of the Bismarck tyjie, he will, have to exercise a greater and better control over his. followers. Hooliganism must be banished to .the limbo of forgotten things and the spirit of concord and co¬ operation must he inculcated into the hearts aud minds of all the people. A Tragic Death I'roni New Vork City comes the news of the tragic cud of Moses W. Dyhaar, the noted Jewish sculptor who. executed busts of Calvin Coolidge, Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, and other well-known figures. He took his own Hie on Marcli 13 by lea|)iiig iu front of an elevated exprt'ss train ill the Dronx. Dykaar was under a physician's care. His actiun was'at¬ tributed to a nervous ailment from which he was suffering, which bad Ijeeii aggra¬ vated by worry c,>ver econoinic conditions. Dykaar had been :ilU>ted space in the new National Museum hy the U. S. gov¬ ermnent. His busts nf the late President Harding, \'ice President Curtis,, General I'ershing, and Chief Justic ' Hughes brought him a great deal'of favorable publicity. He is survived by his widow ami two cliildren, Uaymoml, 9 and David, "I.
