Brown War Clouds Over Europe

To understand the Jewish position in Europe one has to take stock of the Nazi strength. Pierre Van Paasscn's analysis proves that the.

American Jewish Committee Enlarges its Governing Body
Pursuant to a re'solution adopted at-the ^8th annual meeting to enlarge the execu¬ tive committee to 50, the American Jew¬ ish Comrnittee has added 13 men and women active in national organizations to its executive committee. This in¬ creases the .committee's rtiembership from 30 to 43. New. members elected froni the country at large are Louis B. Mayer of Los Angeles, president of Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer Studios; Henry Wine- man of,Detroit, Aaron Waildheim of St. Lotiis, Sidney Lansburgh of Baltimore, Judge Phillip -Fdrman of Trenton, N. J., Carl Austrian of New York, and Dr. Solomon Lowenstein, director of the N. Y. Federation for the Support of, Jewish Philanthropic Societies. To re¬ late the national bodies affiliated with the Committee more closely to the work of the . organization, the following were elected to the Committee's govet-ning body: Simon Moss, grand master'of the Free Sons of Israel; Louis Moss, presi¬ dent of the United Synagogue of America; Mrs.. Maurice L. Goldman, chairman of the executive committee of the National Council of Jewish Women; John L. Bernstein ol the HIAS; Mrs. David de Sola Pool, q& Hadassah; and Judge William B.

He is not Just plunging ahead wildly with- his feverish armament Therefore, what is ucrong with this nian Hitler any¬ way? Isn't.all the agitation against him just a; Jewish-inspired plot of revenge? Hear the man speak; peace,'democracy, social justice, human rights, amicable re¬ lations with the whole world. What's wrong with that? It is clear-^is it not? —that he really intends nobody any harm. He merely wants freedom to settle his score with the Bolsheviks once and for all. What does that matter to us? Is that something to get excited over? Let the man go ahead! If he tackles Russia he will be busy for the next fifty years trying to Prussianize the huge country. Why should we meddle in a private quar¬ rel? We are neither Bolsheviks rior Nazis, wliyvinterfere in a clash between two philosophic^, two world-systems, two Weltanschauuiigen i-yith neither of whom we have anything in common. Let Hitler have his way and he will probably leave the rest of us alone t
Those and similar sentiments are heard on all sides in Europe and, I doubt not, also in America. We cannot say of the men who utter these counsels tliat they are agents of the Nazis consciously en¬ gaged in spreading the brovirn propa¬ ganda, but we can say and we do say

exists no propaganda as powerful as the effect which unintentionally emanates from a work of pure art.
Xothing can give the Jews greater stature than the fact that this loftiest work, thc Book of hooks, was begotten by them.
This work glorifies only God, and not thc people. The people is portrayed As entirely human, all too human. It dis¬ putes with its leaders, it forgets its God und dances about the golden calf; but ever again it seeks the way to thc High¬ est Beitig, to its invisible God—with a moving tenacity, with an elemental yearning in even the least of its mem¬ bers, with a bright spirituality especially when a gloomy fate weighs heavily upon it.
Like all men, thc Jews are a mixture of good and evji. Let him who knows himself to be witliout sin be the first to ca.st a stone at them.
Yet they live in thc liail of stones that has been falling on them for thousands of years—that alone is no small miracle; and they shall continue to live as long as they seek the way to thc Highest Being and to their own essential being, which God created in Iiis image.— (Copyright 193d.)
New Anti-Jewish Campaign Sweeps AH Over Germany
BERLIN (WNS)—Encouraged by the recent inflammatory utterances of Goeb¬ bels, Goering and other high officials, Nazi mobs are again running riot against Jews ill many parts of Germany, indi¬ cating that a new anti-Jewish 'campaign is under way. In the Ncukoelln district of Berlin, once a labor stronghqld, sev¬ eral hundred uniformed members of thc Hitler youth plastered windows of Jew¬ ish shops with old copies of Der Stuer¬ mer and with posters reading: "Jews, go to Palestine." When the police failed to interfere, the Na^i hoodlums began to ' smash windows and threaten customers- seen patronizing Jews, Before that an¬ other Nazi mob had wrecked thc fronts of Jewish stores in the Bayerischer Platz. In Ncustadt-an-dcr-Aisch, Ba¬ varia, ' the Nazi mayor, Grabitcr von Schcllcr, was removed from office *for buying in a Jewish store. In Bad Her- weck. a summer resort, a Jevvish visitor was arrested after hc had declared pub¬ licly that hc had a legal right to be there. This incident followed an anti- Semitic demonstration at which a Nazi editor boasted thnt all Jews would soon "be driven out of town. The Black Corps, official organ of the Hitler black shirts, cautions its readers to avoid sitting at the same table with Jews, criticizes "so¬ ciety families" who buy 111 Jewish stores, and complains that the "poor man is ful-< filling his duty -better tlian these semi- Nazis." The Berliner Tageblalt had one of its editions suppressed because it pub¬ lished a laudatory obituary of Professor Caro, the Jewish scientist who helped Professor James Franck, Nobel prlie winner^ develop the process for extract¬ ing nitrogen from lime.
JERUSALEM (WNS — Palcor Agency)—Palestine's list of industries was enlarged with the establishment of an Oil, Trade Company, financed by Jewish industrialists with a capital of ^200,000 (approximately »1,0(K),(K)(».
