World Jewry is figlifing for its life. Thc forces of Hitlerism, not content with their complete destruction of Jewish cul¬ tural life in Germany and tlic relegation of the loyal and long established Jewish Community to the class of pariahs and outcast.<;, herding our brethren back into a social, political and economic ghetto such as our race has not known since tbe Mid¬ dle Ages, is bent upon arousing a con¬ flagration of anti-Semitlsin the world over.
Even in this dear country of ours, where freedom of conscience and belief liave hccn placed high uimn thc altar of public opinion .since thc founding of the Republic, wc already see thc results of this propaganda of hate and bigotry.
We must unite, wc must fight this men¬ ace. Wc niu!>t prove to the forces of reaction that back of us stand millions of right-tltinking, liberal Americans of every shade of lielief and political opinion.
Only try a complete boycott of Ger¬ man goods and services can Hitlerism with all it connotes be defeated. Only through the success of tlie boycott, the moral substitute for war which has proven lo be our only effective weapon can the present regime be destroyed and the restoration of their l<^al and human Congrers"'when I *''*''**'^ *'^ assured to Germany's persecuted 'racial,   religious   and   political  minorx-
