An Idea
To' Morris Margulies, cnergfeUc sec¬ retary of the Zionist Organization of America, goes the credit for the suggcs' fion that the German Jews who are having such -a hard time acclimatizing themselves in Palestine should go intp the same lines of business a^ they fol¬ lowed in Germany in the pre-Nazi era . . a Many of these Jews, it seems, have sufllcient capital to adopt such a course, which would have the additional advan¬ tage of replacing the "Made in Germany' label, now tabu among our best.'peoplcj with a "Made in Palestine" tag Those in the know declare that many fffeat American department stores, eluding Miicy'a, the world's largest, would be only too happy'to buy from Palestine the goods for which they for¬ merly went to Germany,

T o Address Columbus Jewry Sunday Evening At Agudath Achim Cong.
"A United Germany Offers a United Fleet to the United States," reads an in¬ vitation of two German shipping lines to American dollars. . . . Wc are happy to refuse to take advantage of the offer, but are magnanimous enough to point out to tl^e Nazis a serious blunder. . . . For ouc of the boats fchey puff is the Albert Ballin, named after the Jewish founder of the Hamburg-American Line. . a . As a matter of fact, wc believe there should be instituted a Jewish move- nieht to bring about the Aryanization of the S.. S. Albert Ballin. , . , As long as she's a Nazi ship we'd much rather have her called the Dolly Hitler . ., Another anomaly of the Nazi regime is. cited by Milton . Bronner, Scripps-Howard cor¬ respondent, who recalls that while Hit- larite leaders preach marriage and propa¬ gation to their followers, vital statistics reveal the following situation where the six outstanding Fuehrer are concerned; Adolf Hitler, Rudolf Hess, [ Captain Roehm arid Alfred Rosenberg arc bache¬ lors, Hermann Goering a childless wid¬ ower and Joseph Goebbels, though mar¬ ried, also childless. ... For.these bless¬ ings let us„be,thankful....„>.,. ..  ..    ,-.
Tales Out of School We hear that Otto H. Kahn, who re-. cciitly adopted the traditioiial costume of Justicer-a blindfold—when he judged an impromptu beauty contest down at Palm Beach, is seriously considering ac. ccptance of the treasurersliip of the New York division of the American Palestine Campaign. . . . At the time -of writinor the APC-JDC shidduch seems to be on again. League Commissioner McDonald for German Jewish refugees lijiving been .^pressed into service as shatchen, . The irony of the German Jewish relief situation in Hitlerland is that it must be administered from abroad. Dr. Bernard Kahn, head of the German Joint Distri¬ bution Committee,, being an exile it ^ Parif}, whence he distributes the relief funds received from America. . . . We learn that the powers that be are con¬ sidering the appointment of Herman Bernstein, former U. S. Minister to Al¬ bania, as an ambas.sador ot American Jewry to Germany, .. .His function would he to supervise relief activities on the spot aiid to confer with Gernian gov¬ ernment officials with a view to relaxa¬ tion of the Hitlerite anti-Jewish . ordi¬ nances.
Predictions As the health of that' grand old scholar, Dr. Cyrus Adler,; continues to give canse .for concern, it is becoming more and more probable that Joseph Proskauer, former Justice of the N. Y, Supreme Court, will attain the presi- deiicy of. the American Jewish Conunit¬ tec. . . . It has been suggested tliat in order to ease the transition the leader¬ ship bf that body be vested in a com¬ mittee of three in the meanwhile, an ar¬ rangement whereby I^r. Adler would share his burden wilh Judge Proskauer and Judge Irving Lehmatii of the N. Y. Court of Appeals. , . . That, indefatig¬ able Zionist leader, Louis Lipsky, we un¬ derstand, has declined an invitation to South Africa, but will revisit Eretz Is¬ rael ere long. . . . We may announce that Edsel Ford, son of Henry, is to be a member of the committee of sponsors for the Detroit performance of "The Romance of a People" pageant, . . . Which goes to show that this ambulant spectacle, in addition to getting funds for the settlement of expatriated German Jews in Palestine, is building up com inunal relationships in this comitry. , . Our Scallion Patch A bouquet of scallions to Jay Frank¬ lin, who_ in the current Vanity Fair re¬ fers: to t**^ American people's protests against Hitlerism as a "Jewish pogrom against Hitler.". . . And what of the son of Ivy 'Lee, America's ace publicity roan, who (we mean the misguided ;  (f^i^Umited ion fage 9)
similar affairs, held by Hadassah chap¬ ters throughout the country, are sent to| f^j to the above donors, hospitals and health stations maintained by Hadassah in Palestine. Mrs. Herman Lieverman, chairman of
sewing, and her comniittee are making towels, bed jackets, piUow cases and men's shirts which will be included wilh other linens to be sent.
The committee has stressed the fact that while linens are welcomed, the na¬ tional Hadassah office finds it easier and less costly to transport mon^ contribu¬ tions to Palestine where uniform sup¬ plies can be purchased. With a con¬ stantly increasing influx of immigration the demands on Hadassah haye increased accordingly and the cooperation of mem¬ bers and non-members will be. greatly appreciated.

Mr. Goldberg's interest in Zionism be¬ gan when he was fourteen years .of age and has continued with increasing tensity since that time.

For a time he was associate editor of the Hatoren and subsequently became editor of that publication. He was for eighteen years editor of Dos Yiddishe Folk, of¬ ficial organ of the Zionist Organization. In addition to innumeVabte articles, mono¬ graphs, brochures that he lias written, he has to his credit three boo)cs in He¬ brew and two in Yiddish, composed of literary criticism, analysis of social movements and belles letters.
The meeting Sunday evening is opeii to the public, and it is hoped that the Agudath Achim Congregation will be filled to capacity to hear this: outstand¬ ing American Jewish leader on a subject of most vital importance to Jewry at the present time.

Berlin (WNS)—On the eve of the first anniversary of the Nazi regime's accession to complete iwwer a new. wave of Jewish persecutions, capped by an In- teiisification of the anti-Jewish boycott, is beginning to sweep ovcr Germany. Reports received from every section of the country tell of additional restrictions imposed and the re-enforccment of old ones against the Jewish population. The renewal of .the anti-Jewish boycott, stimulated by the consistent agitation in the Nazi press, is perhaps the most men¬ acing feature of the latest phase of the cold pogrom.
The "Red Feather", official Nazi organ in Dortmund, has publicly forbidden its readers to buy in Jewish stores. A simi¬ lar warning has been issued by the offi¬ cial German news agency which has been campaigning against Jewish depart¬ ment stores. Peasants in the Nuremberg district have been instructed by the Nazi commissar for that area that they will be ousted from the Nazi party if seen patronjaing Jewish enterprises. Impressed with the warning, peasant leaders pledged themselves to strengthen the anti-Jewish boycott. In Gotha all wearers of the swastika are being watched "to prevent them   from entering Jewish  shops.
Boasting that every Jewish doctor em¬ ployed in the Berlin medical and sanita¬ tion systems has been dismissed. Dr. M. Conti, chief of the bureau of inedical affairs in the Prussian interior ministry, has promised that before long the l,80fl Jewish physicians still engaged ih private practice will also be barred from the profession. Conti has been officially in-, strutted to rid all health institutions of non-Aryan practitioners as quickly as possible.
The plight of Jewish lawyers who have been permitted to practice because they are  war veterans  is emphasized by an
iippoal issued to the Jewish communities to patroiii/e Jewish barristers. Despite lhc lact that these attorneys are exempt from the Aryan law most Jews have preferred to employ non-Jewish lawyers because of the fear that a Jewish lawyer, would stand little chance of winning a case in a Nazi court. This condition has pauperized even those lawyers allowed to take cases. Their appeal to the Jew¬ sh people IS designed to overcome this situation.
The most recent physical attack on Jews took place outside of Berlin where a group of Mizrachi students preparing to become chalutzim were beaten up by storm troopers and ousted from a chalut- zim training farm hired by the Mizrachi with the approval of the Berlin police. When the first group of students arrived they were met by the storm troopers w:ho ordered them to leave. Informed that police permission had beeti granted, the troopers said that was unimportant and they refused to permit the students "to dirty German soil."
Although, the Ullsteiri erlag, famous Jewish publishing house, has been com¬ pletely Nazified, the Nazis arc now mak¬ ing "a determined effort to get rid of the few Jews still employed in this great enterprise. All Nazi employes have been ordered to stay away from the Ullstein offices and to send in their contributions by mail as part of the plan to eliminate the remaining Jewish workers,
A German school superintendent and one of the teachers under his, supervision have been dismissed" in Leipzig for're¬ fusing to iollow Nazi orders to teach the school children anti-Semitic poems. The teacher was fired when she decliiied, on pedagogical and humane grounds, to read a violently anti-Jewish poem. The, sui>erintendent was discharged when he upheld the teacher. .

Next Monday evening at the Winding , Hollow City Club on Parsons Ave, near Town, a gala event iu. the history'of the Columbus Jewish community .will. take place. ' Inasmuch as an invitation is be¬ ing extended to all Jewish women and young women over 18 years of age, a large turnout is anticipated. The ; im¬ portant matter to be brought before the wdmen's group will be the establishment of a B'nai B'rith Women's Auxiliary in Columbus, For many years women's auxiliaries . of this nature have iieen functioning successfully, in many cities throughout, the country and their -work has been commended highly at District Grand Lodge conventions. The general program of Women's auxiliaries will be presented to the ladies by Mr. I. W. Garek, vice president of Zion Lodge, after which there will be ^ general dis¬ cussion regarding the election of officers, future plans as to the activities of this body will be made, and a definite pro¬ gram decided upon. Refreshments will' be served to all the ladies in attendance.
As tlic B'nai B'rith Order has taken upon itself the tiniting of Israelites in the work of promoting the highest in¬ terests, and those of humanity,'" so the B'nai- B'rith Women's i^Auxiliaries have been born in many cities for the purpose of assisting their brothers in philan¬ thropic, humanitarian, and patriotic en¬ deavor. With womanly sympathy, and kindly deeds, and in a united spirit of love and loyalty to the Jewish faith, they aim, by influence and example—First, to help maintain that high standard of mo¬ rality which is the pride of our people, and to make the home its sacred safe¬ guard; Second, to cultivate social rela¬ tionship among the inembcrb of the Or¬ der and their families by joint gatherings and friendly intercourse.
Every Jewish woman of this city is therefore urged to attend this imiKirtant meeting next Monday evening, 8 o'clock, at the Winding Hollow City Club,
