New Book on Columbus Says Jews Financed Dis¬ covery of America NEW YORK (WNS)—That the "New World was discovered by an expedition totally financed by Jewish money; fhc Spanish colonization and early exploitation of the neiv 'Land to the West' was very largely financed from the same source; the money for the first expedition (by Columbus) was provided voluntarily and because enlightened Jews believed in the en¬ terprise; and the money for subse¬ quent exploitation was stolen from Jewish sources" are the assertions made by Charles Duff in "The Truth About Columbus and the Discovery of America", a newly published book. Mr. Duff also declares tliat "in view of these facts, it might seem reason¬ able that the Jews, that is to say, a large population of rich, intelligent and peaceful citizens, with a marvel¬ ous equipment physical and intellectual for colonizing and indeed a great heritage of experience in this sense, should have been allowed to go to that vast brave new world. But it was not so. Neither Moslems nor Jews nor even Marranos were permit¬ ted to settle there."

Davis Wilson revoked a permit granted by one of his subordinates to the German-American Volkshund, a Nazi organization, for a military pa¬ rade. Although the protests were based on the organization's Nazi character, Mayor Wilsort said the per¬ mit was cancelled "not because of any charges about Nazism, but because it is the policy of my administration to refuse i>arade permits to any fac¬ tional groups interested in controver¬ sies in other parts of the world."

A- Day on October I8th is to be featured by addresses by Outstanding rabbis and lay leaders in 2(H> ' communities throughout the United States and Canada, The day marks the rededtca- tion of members of Aleph Zadik Aleph, junior B'nai B'rith group, to their program of religious aiid social service and cultural, social and athletic activities. J E R U S A L E M (WNS-Palcor Agency)—A substantial reduction in the stringent military measures that were recently introduced to curb the disorders in Palestine was announced by the British military general staff to coincide with the termination of the six-month old Arab general strike. An officer of the general staff in stat¬ ing tliat the strong guard put on the Holy I-ind, would be lifted, said that the military had decided to adopt a defensive policy in the situation and "to rest>ond only to unprovoked ag¬ gression. Besides removing the con¬ voy escorts which used to accompany busses in transit from city to city, the troops will also decrease the num¬ ber of patrols designed to stamp out intimidation and sabotage." A<; part of the new military iKiliey, lafge cross-country pickets 'will also be eliminated, and there will be no more searching of villages for arm. Road and railway patrols which pro¬ tected rolling stock against the sniper and the saboteur will .ilso be reduced. In saying that these precautionary measures were being lifted as ,a re¬ sult of the end of the general strike, the general staff pointed out, hbwevcr, that these new arrangements will con¬ tinue until October I6th, when the sit¬ uation will be reviewed. It was fur¬ ther emphasized by tbe military au¬ thorities that the lessening of the pre¬ cautions did not mean that they would be less alert to emergency situations. If necessary, it was asserted, the for¬ mer stringent measures will be im¬ posed immediately. Unless the Arab Higher Commit¬ tee provides them with adequate com¬ pensation, the Arab bands that have been terrorizing the country for the past six months will continue their marauding activities, even though the Arab general strike was terminated today, the Arab Higher Committee is reported to have been warned by the chiefs of the Guerrilla gangs. Thcir financial position suddenly made pre¬ carious by the termination of the Arab strilcie, ~ the.' roving "hinds" are ' abk- ing large sums with which to com¬ pensate individual members, reports indicate. Negotiations 011 the ulti¬ matum are now proceeding between the band leaders and the Arab.Hijgher Committee, The end of the Arab general strike does not mean that the struggle of the Jewish population in Palestine are over, warns David ben Gurion, Chair¬ man of the Jewish Agency Executive, in a statement to the Palcor Agency. In commenting upon the official end of the strike and the accompanying campaign of terror, the Jewish leader pointed out: "Our claims upon the mandatory government did not begin with the strike and do not end with its downfall. Struggles .still await us. "We were not confounded by the proclamation of the strike and 'are not jubilant now at its end," he said. "The strike has been terminated in complete failure, and has not attained a single one of its avowed objects On the contrary, it has demonstrated to the whole world, if further evi¬ dence were required, that already to¬ day Palestine is not wholly Arab. The strike did not succeed in para¬ lyzing the country's life, and did not even embrace all the Arab villages, The workers in Haifa and its port, and the' Arab postal and railway v-'orkcrs did not go on strike. "Even those striking were forced to quit work by increasing intimidation and terrorism. The strike' did not hit the Yishub, but on the contrary re¬ vealed that the economy pf the Jews is not dependent upon the Arabs. Moreover, it indirectly consolidated the Jewish economy, as for example in the ease of the construction of the Tel Aviv port and the entrenchment of Jewish labor in agriculture, mari¬ time 'occupations ¦ and government works. The strike did not frighten the Jews, who inaintained uninter¬ ruptedly their work, traffic and immi¬ gration. The Arab leaders who are responsible for the strike and ter¬ ror must now prove that they are able not. only to rduse but to end that terror. The call of the kings was requested by. the Arab leaders to save their faces." HE WILL BE HONORED AT BROAD ST. TEMPLE MONDAY EVENING Dr. Vt, W. Abramson A grand reception will be tendered the beloved civic and communal worker. Dr. B. W. Abramson, by the Tifereth ^^llslracl Congregation at the Broad St. Temple on Monday, Octo¬ ber 10, at 8 p. m., and the entire Jew¬ ish community is cordially invited to come and pay tribute to the honored guest who will report on the World Jewish Congress which convened last .August in Geneva and which Dr. .Abramson attended as a delegate of U.

In addition to his versatile edu¬ cational background. Dr. Abramson is a keen observer of contemporary events. The guest speaker,visited number of Jewish communities Europe and has. a vital message to give to Columbus'Jewry. His report of what is' going on in Jewish life abroad should prove of deep and in¬ tense interest to Jews who are at all concerned with the problem of our brethren living around the volcanoes of modern hatred. A special invitation is extended to the Zionist Organization, the Hadas¬ sah, the Mizrachi and to all those who desire to join in this grand reception to a man whom the Columbus Com¬ munity is proud to have in its midst.

LONJ:)ON (WNS)—London got itt, first t.i-stp of anti-Semitic violence a scale commensurate with that hi Poland and Roumania when u gang of Fascist b]acksliirt.s swooped down on the Jewish quarter in the East End and ran riot while alt available police uerc protecting a parade of 5,000 anti- r'ascibts in another section of the city. Armed with razors, sticks and stones, the blackshirts smashed plate glass windows, stashed pedestrians, over¬ turned displays of merchandise and threw one Jewish merchant, Sam Jalin, through the window of a tailor shop, Tlicy set fire to two automo¬ biles and destroyed thousands of dol¬ lars worth of other property. The Mile End Road area was thrown .into uproar as the Fascists raced through the neighborhood shouting "down with tbe Jews! Hail Mosley." At least a dozen Jews suffered in¬ juries that required hospital treatment while others were treated on the spot. While this riot was in progress an¬ other mob of Fascists sought to break up the anti-Fascist parade which wound its way from Tower Hill to Victoria Park. When the blackshirts sought to grab some of the anti-Fas¬ cist banners, a free-for-all broke out in which two policemen and scores of civilians were injured. A similar outbreak occurred in Liv¬ erpool when Sir Oswald Mosley, Fas¬ cist leader, had a narrow escape from the hands of a mob of 15,000 which threatened to lynch him. Reports are current here that Mos¬ ley is preparing to abandon the familiar black shirt uniform of his followers and replace it by a more military-looking outfit. The Sunday Referee declares that many -wealthy Englishmen who have been cbntrih- uting large sums to Mosley have withdrawn .their support as the result of the recent violence precipitated by the Fascists. Mosley himself has is¬ sued a denial that his movement is financed by Hitler, asserting that he spends $350,000 a year, all of which is contributed by his members in dues. It is known, however, that he only raises $50,000 annually in membership dues. Emboldened by the assertion of Home Minister Sir John Simon that the government is legally powerless to check Fascist agitation. Mosley's blackshirts have so intensified their activities in the heavily-populated Jew¬ ish sections of London's East End that the Jews of that area have ap¬ pealed to the police to enroll a special Jewish battalion to protect the Jews. At the same time the East End is or¬ ganizing a non-sectarian citizens com¬ mittee of borough officials, members of Parliament, clergymen, professional men and business men to help maintain order. These two moves are regarded as necessary in view of the daring of the blackshirts. The police records in the East End show that Jews there are afraid to appear in the streets after dark. Blackshirts armed with iron bars and sticks weighted down with lead lie in wait for unwary Jews at every dark corner. Jewish pedes¬ trians are being attacked almost nightly. An aged chazan was seriously injured by a gang of bl.ickshirt hood¬ lums. Lighted firecrackers are being tossed into Jewish shops and every available wall is being plastered with signs urging a boycott of the Jews. The Fascists are also distributing leaf¬ lets in the vicinity of schools protest¬ ing against Jews being allowed to at¬ tend. Tlie increasing bravado of Mosley's followers was evidenced by the in¬ sistence of a blackshirt oh taking an oath in court by giving the Fascist salute. A judge in another courfc re¬ fused to hold a Jew for disturbing the peace when the accused testified he could Xioi endure the insults hurled at his race by speakers at a Fascist meeting. Jewish leaders expect an even more violent outburst of anti- Semitism by Mosley who has just re¬ turned from a flying visit to Berlin. Gets Canadian Radio Post MONTREAL (WNS)—Prime Minister McKenzie King has ap¬ pointed N. L. Nathanson, formerly of Minneapolis, and now engaged in'the motion picture business In <^nada, as a governor of the recently formed Canadian Radio iBoard.
