Without this co¬ operation, J/lr. Brown continues, '-'we would iipthjjve been able to-.toild up,ari iiiiderstahding .attitude . on the part -of Anierican. Jewry, toward our organiza¬ tion. ' . "As one who; has 'had much to do with fund-raising activi¬ ties of many organizations I have always realized the powdr -and strength of the Jewish Press and have never failed to extend to them their share of credit, VI sometimes wonder though,'* he said* "if the Jews in .those cities that haye an Anglo-Jew¬ ish newspaper appreciate their debtto it for the important part it pla;^s in the American Jewish scene. . "If one is interested in the Jewish news of the world, one must read the Jewish pres^^ for it is well known that the secular press carries a minimum of Jew¬ ish news". iiiiiiority ill Germany and the menace of the growing exodus call for frieiidly but firm intercesi^ion with the German gov¬ eriuncnt, by all pacific iDean.'i, on the part o£ the Lcaguti of Nations and other mem¬ bers of the community of nations," Mr. McDonald warils that "pity aiid reason aliice must inspire the hope that .inter¬ cession, will meet ¦ivith response" because "withoiit such rcsponBC the problems caused by the persecution of. the Jews, and the non-Aryans, will not be solved by philanthropic action, but will continue to constitute a^ danger to international peace and a source of innury to the legiti¬ mate interests,of other states. > Predicing that "desperate suffering in the countries adjacelit to Germany, and an even more/ terrible human calamity within the German -frontiers, are inev¬ itable, unless present tendencies ifi the ¦Reich ;are checked or reversed," the're¬ tiring High Gommlssioner, who has di¬ rected , the refugee work since October lOyn,': declared that "the moral authority gf the League of.Nations and of states members of the league must be directed towards a determined appeal to the Ger¬ man gbvernirieht in the, name of humaiv ity and of ¦ the principles of the public law of Europe. They piust" ask for, ¦.modification, of policies which constitute a source of unrest and perplexity, in the world, a challenge to the conscience ot mankind, and.a menace to the legitimate, interests of tHi; states affected by theim^ itiiigratioTi of Gierman refugees." \ Emphasizing that "when domestic ppl- lcfes'',;threateh;:''the^ 'd^ and exile of hundreds of thousands of human beings, considerations of diplomatic ebr- rccttless must yield to those of coinmon humanity," Mr. McOoriaid pointed out that "the problem,must be tackled at its source if disaster is to be.'ayoided," since the' efforts of, the¦ private, orgaiiizations and of .any League organization for ref¬ ugees , can , bnly mitigate a problem of growing grayity and' complexity." Urg¬ ing the/League to make the Refugee Commission, a , part of its organization working directly under ;it, rather than as a separate unit as, it ha.s been during his term, of office, Mr. McDonald said that ."this Ls a function of the League, which is essentially an^ association of states for the consideratipn of, matters of "common, concern.

' PICKET NEW YORK STORES HAN¬ DLING GERMAN MERCHANDISE N'HW YORK ¦(WNS)-Taking the offensive, against violators of the anti- Nazi boycott, the American Jewish Con¬ gress and the Anti-Nazi Minute Men are planning to picket every store in New York that fails to heed the plea for co¬ operation .with the boycott inovement. The picketing began when Mrs, Stephen S, Wise, president of the women's divi¬ sion of the American Jewish pongress, headed a group of six members of the Congress who paraded in front of the toy and novelty store of B. Shackman at Madison Avenue and li4th Street. The .pickets'carried signs reading "Shackman Buys From Hitler" and "Boycott Shack¬ man". Mont Shackman, president of the firm, called tlie police to disperse the picketers but the police-did npt disturb the picketers when Mrs. Wise declared that tbey were engaged in peaceful activ¬ ities. Shacltman said that most. of the directors of the firm were Christian, that he would "continue to sell Gennan toys as long as my customers demand it" and that "the action of these people in picket¬ ing the store is doing mpi-e tb hurt the Jewish pepple'than anything else." The Anti-Nazi Minute Men have mobilized 100 of their ni,embers to picket the Woolworth, Kress and Kresge stores. Temple Is Host to Franklin County Ministerial Assn. ..

Eycn though Germany, may not be bound by a treaty obligati'iri' providing for equal citizenship of racial, Tcligious, br linguistic minorities, nevertlieless/Mr. McDonald declared, "the principle of re- ^ spect for ¦ the rights of minorities has been during the last three centuries,' ¦hardening'into an obligation pt the pMb- lic law of Europe." That principle,, he . stai,d,'iiVasTdcogiMziedrirt i^ome^of'the. important international instruments, of the li>th century;. The assembly, of the League in 1922 , he reported, adopted i a resolution which, expressed the, hope that' "states not bound by specific legal obli-, gations in the. matter bf minorities will nevertheless observe in the treatnient of theii* owri minorities at least as high a istandard of justice; and toleratioin as is required' by the treaties in question." .This r,esolutio,n, he, pointed, oiit, was re¬ affirmed in 19.^3* at a meeting of the As¬ sembly and in order to dispel, doubts whether it applied to Jews in Germany, that the principle "niust be.appHecl with¬ out ,e;^ception to all classes of .nationals of a state which differs from thb major¬ ity of the population in race, language. ; or religion;" The Germaa Jews, ^Ir. McDonald said, on this ptrint, "although :, not claiming or desiring to be a minority arc within the scope of this principle, gs was stated at the Assembly, as soon as- there. is. legal discrimination, .a minority, exists, within-the meaning bf modern law.": ' '¦ ¦ - - Survey Shows Anti-Semitism Not Political Factor in America: .. NEW YORK (WNS)"Nowhere in the United States is anti-S.emitism as yet strong enough to be a political factor, -Fortune Magazine declares qn the basis of' replies received in various, parts pf the country to the question: "Do,you believe that in the long .run Germany will be better or. worse off if it drives out the Jews?" Conceding that "there is. certainly prppaganda at Tvork tugging it (antt-Seimitism) wider," Fortune: employed the indirect method to determine the extent of, anti- Semitism because it felt that "the use of a trial questionnaire putting the question indirectly showed that people iare almost 100 percent reluctatit to voice an out-and- out racial antagonism." The'results of its poll on the above;questiori were as follows: , . North- Mid- South- South- Pacific Total east west east west West Coast Better 14.0% 15.1% 16.1% 7.5% 14.7% 9.8% 14.3% Worke ...;... 54.6% 52.7% 55.1% 60.0% 32.4% 41.0% 61.1% Don't Know:.....:. 31.4% 32,2% 28.8% 32.5% 32.9% 49.2% 24.6% Commenting on these figures, Fortiine concludes that "Obviously, in no part . of the country is anti-Semitism at present strong ^ enough to count politically. The smallest amount w'as to be found in the Southeast and the West, where there ate very few Jews. On the other hand in the- Northeast, where 70 percent of the American Jewish population is concentrated, the percentage opposed to, the jews was only 15.1, and was actually less than that in the Midwest. , Most significant answer is the 'don't know' answer, fpr it probably tan be made only out of a com¬ plete dispassron about the whol6 subject. It is interesting that th'S balance wheel' of anti-fanaticism, one way or another, is ijowhere less than a quarter of the entire sainplc, except on the. Pacific Coast, and not significantly less even there, that it outvotes anti-Semitism by generally more than two to one, and rises tp a five-to-one ratio in the West. By size of. place and,by occupation, differences were negligible, except that farm hands were far our of ..line—20,0 per cent being anti-Jewish," Voliner Society To Install Of¬ ficers Sunday Evening The annual banquet and installation of officers of the Voliner Society will take place Sunday at 5:30 p. m. at the.social hall of the Agudath Achim. Following installation of oflicers a free dinner will be seryed to all members and their wives. During the dinner an entertaining pro¬ gram will be presented.
