NEW YOHK (WNS)—-American youth, 3,000,000 strong, has joined the world^vido prote.it movement nKninst tiic establisiimont of ghet¬ to henchCT in tho ncndcmic insti¬ tutions of Poland, The American Youtli Congress, representing 3,- 000,000 young men and women, has made public a cnmmimication to tho Polish minister of education urging him to l>ring nn end to the practice of ghetto benches nnd "all bad educational practices which thoy imply." The text of the com-* munlcation reads as follow^;
"On October i, 19,17 ghetto benches were introduced into the academic institutions of Poland with your sanction. This alarms the youtli of America as a viola¬ tion of the constitutional guaran¬ tees of cijuolity to tho Jews as a minority population of Poland. On bfehalf of the young people of tho United States, I urge that the prac¬ tice of segregation of Jev/ish stu¬ dents bo stopped. Ghetto benches are a direct infringement of the principle of academic freedom, which is a principle upon which academic learning must bo based throughout the world. American youth nnd especially the students of the United States, honor those in Poland who have resisted and protested the anti-Semitic program epitomized by ghetto benches.

Committee   For
Polish Jews
NEW YORK (WNS)—An emer¬ gency committee to aid the Ameri¬ can Committee Appeal for Jews in Poland in its campaign to raise $1,000,000 for Polish Jew¬ ry was formed after 100 Jewish leaders had heard tho plight of Pol¬ ish Jewry explained by Samuel Un¬ termyer. Mr. Untermyer, who call¬ ed the meeting, accepted tho honor¬ ary chairmanship of tho committee and pledged $6,000. Mrs. Bebeknh Kohut accepted the honorary cbair^ manship of a woman's division. Mr. Untermyer read a cablegram received from 13 members of a committee of Polish Jews who had distributed $100,000 sent over by tlio Aqicrlcan Committee Appeal, In tho course of his appeal for Im- mediato aid to tho Jews of Poland, Mr. Untermyer lauded tho activi¬ ties of tho J.'D. G. in Poland but said "its resources aro wholly in¬ sufficient" for meeting tho pro¬ blem. He emphasized, however, that he could not "subscribe to tho view tliat its existence makes it mandatory upon other organiza¬ tions, or advisable, that they lliiul- date their activities."
Soma forty years ago the Ezras Noshim Society was founded by a group of Jewish women headed by Mrs. A. Goldberg, well known community worjcer and patron. This' organiaition, th'tooglr itil many charitable endeavors, has been a real asset to Columbus Jewish Community. Thousands in distress havo during the many years been assisted through the eOiorts of this splendid society.
Every year tho Ezras Noshim Society sponsors a charity dinner, the proceeds of which goes toward its budget t6 meet the urgent calls of iho needy during the winter season. The dinner this year will be held this Sunday evening at the Aguadth Achim Synagogue, at G o'clock. On the program as speak¬ ers will be Rabbi Mordecai Hirsch¬ sprung, Rabbt Leopold Greenwald and Miss Rose Sugarman ot the Schonthal Center, Ben Z. Neu¬ stadt, Publisher of the Ohio Jewish Chronicle, will be tho toast master for this occasion and will bo ably assisted by Allan Tarshish. Can¬ tor P, H.

NEW YORK (WNS)—IncLislon of the teachings and wi'idom of .Tesua in the litcraturo ot thf sy¬ nagogue nnd perhaps in its lifur- gy was urged by Jtltsbbi Willt6i'n F. Roscnhlum of Temple Israel in his Sabbath sermon to hla congrega¬ tion. Painting out that tho place of Jesus in tho syndgogue ia a question always present in -the minds of Christians nnd Jews eager for a 'finer sense of broth¬ er hood," nnd Tccnlllng that "Je¬ sus- had a place in ancient Isrhel," liabbi Roscnblum said "there seems to be no reason why his resumes of Jewish teaching and the absorbing account ot bis life nnd work among tbo lowly should not bo made part of the syna- gogne literature today. They will not add a jot or title to tho wenllh of ethical instruction already con¬ tained in the Bible. Jesus was the firsC to disclaim any new levc lotion but thpro arc many repeti¬ tions in tho present Old Testa¬ ment and Judaism lias not aufTcr. ored thereby,
"Great progtcDs has been made in tho field of good-Will between Christian and Jow on the economic, social and civic fronts, and not a single Activity which brings Chris¬ tians ond Jews together should o'c discounted or disturbe<L But it is not enough to bring them togctlicr. Something must be done to keep them from drifting apart. There should be a place for Jesus in the synagogue comparable to- that which Moses and tho prophets oc¬ cupy in the chuf:ch. Christianity docs not deify them, but i% lesog- nlzes the strength and the truth of their doctrine. Judaism, In a its literature and perhaps ie Its world that may be reactionary for the moment bui; is destined to re¬ gain its sense of proj^ress in tiie future, need not place Ctirts^ on'ifs altar of worship, but clin'fmd '

Dr. Edelman Says 60,000 Babies Bom With Syphilis Yearly
Sixty thousand babies are bom in tho United States each year with syphilis, Dr. S. D. Edelman, as-^ sistant professor ot diseases of
said Wednesday night on the WBNS educational program of the city health board and Community Fund.
"It is estimated that there are 3G,000 fatal deaths from congeni¬ tal syphilis in tho United States cacli year. The probabilities are that the figures are very conserva¬ tive," he said.
'"To prevent congenital sypliil- is one must go back to tho father and mother—back to a period in their Uvea beforo they anticipated parenthood," he added.   Be said:
"rott often tho only Intorma- t!u!i the 'boy or girl receives 1^ (roia some other wise boy or girl, Bsually incorrect and told in an off-colored or boastful manner. It should be told to thejd by one who haa their cunBdcnce, a parent or fsuiliy pbysidau.
"These children should have in¬ culcated tn them a sense ot respon¬ sibility for tlirir future health and woU boiflg."
Rabbi Lee J. Levingcr spoke re¬ cently in two local pulpits on the topic, "Tho Spanish Conflict and the Jews,'' By request tho Chroni¬ cio io printing this summary of his address for its wider audience of readers.
"Over four hundred years ago," nnid Rabbi Levingcr, "tho Jowfl wcto expelled from Spain by the King and the Church, Today the snmo forces are once again mak¬ ing war oh the forces of liberal¬ ism, on tho Spanish republic,' the rights of the people, and even On tho Jews tHemselvefl, Backed by Hitler and Mussolini, the Spanish rebels aro openly proclaiming that their enemy is -modem liberalism, tho work of the Masons and the Jews.
"Tho.-Jews-have a double stake in the Spanish conflict. Jews are enrolled in the International Brig¬ ades, coining from Germany and Poland, from America aiid.the Bal¬ kans together. with fifty other peoples, because they know that the growth of fascism.means the downfall of Jewry. Hitler's friends aro our enemies; Hitler's eineinies are our friends.
"The Spanish republic in its. short six years has actually es¬ tablished, a constitution giving equal rights to all citizens. It has repealed the laws against the Jews made in 1492 and has welcomed back the Jews to Spain, There are in Spain today some four thou¬ sand-Jews who have entered dur¬ ing these six years, moat of them refugees from Germany and, Po¬ land. Driven out of .their modem home by Hitler, they have gone back to their medieval home in .the confidence that Spain itself has become modern at last.
"The defenders of these pitiful refugees are tho liberals, tho So¬ cialists, the various parties which have bonded together to protect, the republic. Their enemies are the Church and the army, the iden¬ tical forces which drove their an¬ cestors from Spain four hundred years ago. Modem fascism is the enemy of tho Jews cvery-whcre; it builds its unity and its power on tho oppressed minorities; and wc see in Germany and Poland how the outstanding ono of these mi¬ norities, tho most oppressed of them nil, is our little Jewish folk. Wo have also a second stake in the Spanish struggle, our hope for Palestine. As Dr. Stephen Wise aaid recently, the fate -of Palestine may bo decided on the hills of Aragon. Tho conspiracy of the Arab leaders against Great Britain and the Jewish National Homo is being backed by Musso¬ lini. If ho should win control over Spain, he'would also control the Straits of Gibraltar and the entire Mediterranean Sea. Britain would weaken in its hold on the Near East and our infant Jewish state would be at the mercy of Musso¬ lini and his Arab allies. . "It is no wonder that three hun- dl!ed Palestinian Jews are enrolled in the international Brigades, not only to fight Fascism but even more direbtlyj to defend, Jewish Palestine at the point where it is being undermined.
"For good or bad, wo Jews are as always at the center of world history. Every event in this era of warfare is reflecteil In our lives. We. are necessarily enlisted in the struggle for liberalism; for demo¬ cracy, againat the rising tide of fascism, which threatens to over¬ whelm us. We are deeply concern¬ ed with the Jewish hopes for Pales¬ tine, which we seo threatened by theae same forces. Wo have a double stake in the Spanish conflict, that, the republic should win, that Hitler and Mussolini should be stopped in their victorious progress ta annihilate our people and to control Em'ope."
World  Renowned Cantor To Be Heard Here, Dec. M, 25, 26
Announcement has jusL been mado that Mordecai Hcrshman, world renowned cantor, is to con¬ duct services at the Bcth Jacob
MORDECAI HERSBMAN
Synagoguo on Friday evening, Saturday morning, Dec, 24 and 2C, He will also give a concert &t the same place on Sunday evening, Dec. 2C.
Having appeared in Columbns in Dec. 1931, Cantor Hersbman needs little introduction to the Jewish public, inasmuch as his fame is world-wide. It is a known tact that in every city of Europe, as well aa in all American syna¬ gogues or concert hallo where_ he haa been, heard, 'capacity audiences j have turned out. Music critics everywhere have balled Candor Hersbman as possessing the gront- eat tenor voice since Caruao, which he uaea with tho utmost skill and dexterity. It is no wonder, the critics have said, that Ills tri¬ umphs here and abroad have been most sensational.
Cantor Hershman's understand¬ ing of tho fiery passages in .the prayer book help him to bring out in song the yearnings, the hopes and aspirations of every Jewish man and woman who comes to pray in the house of God. It is also aaid that Hershman's interpreta¬ tion of folk songit are outstand¬ ing, especially whero tho words are of a Hcbrew-Ukranian mixture. Bom in tho Ukraine he infuses in his songs nil the joys and longings of the Jewiah people from that part of Russia, where tho Jew waa only tolerated and frequently had to suffer untold hardships.
When it comes to operatic and classical music, Mr. Hershmnn ia equally at home, possessing aa he does tlio voice and musical train¬ ing for such work. In short, here is an artist who should satisfy even tho most exacting tnates, and it is hoped that tho Jewish people ot this city and surrounding towns will take full advantage of this opportunity of-bearing ono ot tho truly great artists of the present day.
Tickets and,reservations can be made by calling any oJIicer of the Beth Jacob Congregation or Mr. Charles Fum^an, chairman of tho Cantor Commjtteo. Mr. Fur- man can be reached by phoning GA. 1183.
NEW YORK (WN3)~"Tho host Way lo combat nnil-Semitlsm in to ahow thai our religion atando for tho ethical principles that make for (jood clliaehahip,'* Governor Htirbort Lohman declared in on nd- drcuu at the 16th annua) Chanu¬ kah dinner of tho Jowlsji Education Asaociation.

In the course of his address, Govcc- nor Lehman said;
"A knov/Icdgo of the Jewiah tra¬ dition will bring to tho Jews of today a healthy sense of self-re¬ spect and Increased spiritual strength. In understanding the Jewiah past ho will know that tho prophecy that in the seed ot Abra¬ ham 'shall all the nations of tho world bo blessed' will bo fulfilled If tho spiritual ideals and moral values which nro embodied in the Law nnd In tho Prophets and in Jewish tradition inapiro and gnido tho every thought and every act ot Jews. It ifl our good fortune in this country that freedom of thought and conscience aro safe¬ guarded by a fundamental law and, what is perhaps more important, by tho character and spirit of tho people. It seems to mo that it is becoming every day moro dearly evident to ua that for tho solu- ; tion of the gic^t problema which face mankind, mankind needs free< ' dom of thoagbt and conscience, : needs moral viflues, needs spiritual ideals."
