FASCISM OVER SOUTH AMERICA
Is There a Future for BraziUan Jewry? By JAMES WATERMAN WISE'
This nrticle, of enpccial timely sttniiflcancc bccniijBG of I^rcsident Roosevelt's recent visit to the Inter-Amencan I'caco Conference, throws much-needed light on tho JcwiHh situation in Brazil. The author, who ifl DBDOcintc editor of I'cople's I'res.^, has just returned from that coun¬ try, which he visited as a member of a gueat delegation of thc Joint Committee for thc DcfcnHc of tho Brazilian People.—The Editor.

New Nazi Order Halts Emi¬ gration of Male Jews Between 18 and 45
B'ERUN (WNS)--The Nazi noose around the neck of German Jewry wa"? given another pull when thc govern¬ ment forbade all German males be¬ tween thc ages of 18 and 45 to leave the German borders without written pcrmiasion from the military oHicials of their districts, thus cutting off at one swoop virtually all Jewish emigra¬ tion from the Reich. Rumors that this sensational and unprecedented action was preliminary to a general civil mobilization order could not be confirmed but it was learned in well- informed quarters that such an order was an immediate possibility.. It was also reported that when and if such mobilization takes place thc Nazis will arrest a large number of im¬ portant Jews and hold them as hos¬ tages. Their property, it is said, will be confiscated. Thc ban on male emi¬ gration is likely to be followed by an¬ other decree ordering all young Jews into a special Jewish labor corps for emergency war service. Ten German army authorities are known to be op¬ posed to the continued emigration of young and able-bodied Jews. Although tlicy are not admitted to thc Reichs¬ wchr, they can be employed in various menial tasks, sueh a.<; ditch-digging and the construction of latrines.

TEL AVIV (WNS — Palcor Agency)—"Palestme has made an un¬ forgettable Impression upon me," Ar¬ turo Toscanini, famed Italian conduc¬ tor, declared at a Habima performance here which he witnessed and where the audience gave him a stormy ova¬ tion. Previously he had been euthusl- astically greeted by workers in the new Tel Aviv port, which he visited, Together with Bronislaw Huber¬ man, the violinist and founder of thc Palestine Symphony Orchestra, which Signor Toscanini is conducting now, the Italian conductor also called uimn He  was I Sir Arthur Wauthope in Jerusalem.
Three tliousand Jewish colonists and other workers were guests at the final rehearsal of the new orchestra, which was converted into a great popular concert with free admLssion as a tc- suit of a decision taken by Mr. Huber¬ man and Signor Toscanini. The members of the orchestra, mostly ref ugees from Germany, went through thc rehearsal in a spirit as enthusias¬ tic as that of thc audience.
Announcing that over 7,000 mem¬ bers have already been enrolled for the orchestra season, a proportion paralleled anywhere else, Mr. Huber¬ man declared tliat "Toscanini is de¬ lighted whh thc orchestra which has been formed here,
Rabbi Zelizer's Sermon
Rabbi Nathan Zelizer will speak at thc East Broad St, Temple Friday, January 1, at 6 p, m. on the theme, "Looking Ahead." Cantor Eugene Gottesman and the Choir will con¬ duct the services. All are invited to attend.
Rabbi Zelixer will speak on Fri¬ day, January 8, on the subject, *'Tlie Meaning of Faith in the World of Today".
Jamea Waterman Wise arc actually dominated by foreign im¬ perialist interests. In theory a con¬ stitutional democracy, thc government Is In fact a reactionary dictatorship Its "President," Getulio Vargas, pays lip-service to freedom while he abol¬ ishes civil liberties and holds thou¬ sands of political prisoners incom¬ municado. So too with the Jew in Brazil. His present status and future fate exhibit^'contradictions Gi'milar to those which characterize the country as a whole.
In ordinary times I should, white in Brazil, ha\x generally surveyed the Jewish community—its social history and composition, its religious trends and divisions, Its outstanding prob¬ lems and personalities. But thc times are troubled, tragically so for our people, and such attention as I de¬ voted to the Jewish situation in South America was focubcd on two specific problems:
1. The effect of Fascism, with Iti. world program of anti-Semitism on Brazilian Jewry.
2. Thc pos-sibilitics for large-scale inuni^ratlon tu and settlement in Brazil of a portion of the homeless and harried Jews of Central and East¬ ern Europe.
The two problems are not unrelated. For the very fury of reactionary na¬ tionalism which makes Jewish life In Poland and Germany insupportable also reaches across the seas to em¬ poison a distant land and to incite hatred toward those who will come as exiles to Its shores. Each anti- Semitic congress in Nuremberg has repercussions in Rio de Janeiro. Every excess committed against the Jewish population of Warsaw furnishes an ex¬ ample to Fascist hooligans In Sao Paulo and Buenos Aires.
Yet anti-Semitism was unknown in Brazil four years ago, I spoke with recent immigrants, with long-estab¬ lished Jewish-families and with Amer¬ icans and Europeans who have known the country over a period of time. Uniformly they stated that such feel¬ ing as jcxi>;ts against the Jew in Brazil today can be precisely dated by thc advent of Nazism and its "Aryan" crusade. Anti-Semitism is being ex¬ ported from Germany today exactly like Dresden china or Zeiss lenses. Unlike them, however, it need not evade custom duties or outwit pro¬ tective tariffs.
In this respect the situation In Brazil differs from that elsewhere. Hitlerism, through its propaganda, has doubtless intensified anti-Jewishncsa in most countries. But in those coun¬ tries there liad existed—In political, social or tronomic circles—at least a prior base for that prejudice. Bra/Jl was Indenhassrein, totally free of thc virus, before 1033. Today anti-Semi¬ tism is a factor to be reckoned with.
The significance of this factor must not, it Is true, be stressed out of pro¬ portion to the entire picture. The fifty thousand Jews of Brazil, two-thirds of whom inunigrated since 1020, stilt live in such segiirity and peace as the
icpressix'C policies o)^ the present gov¬ ernment permit any Inhabitants of the coimtry There have in the past been manifestations of {food will on the part of thc Brazilian people, which, as a conglomerate of races, ignores or ridicules the pseudc}*sclcnce of racial superiority. There is still instinctive mass sympathy for the persecutions undergone by German Jewry.
But if the Jewish future In Brazil is not wholly black, thc shadow of the Swastika has fallch heavily athwart it. A growing Fascist movement, known as Integralism, apes the Ger¬ man, variant, and Jew-baithig is part and parcel of its pfOi^ram. Its youth¬ ful adherents have fcecn incited to at¬ tack Jewish residences and' Individ- iial.s. One such attack, courageously beaten oil by Its Ititbiidcd victim, took place during my visit. Newspapers in Portugese and German repeat every .-mcient antl-JcwIsV libel from ritual murder to malodorousiiess. And every new one which Goebbel's propaganda factory emits. Posters and pamphlets are Issued, especially in the larger cities, through "utiknown" sources. They aim to divert popular unrest from economic into racial channels and a.scribc to thc Jew 'sole responsibility for every evil from capitalist ex¬ ploitation to Communist international¬ ism.
At first the govertimctit frowned on these manifestations of prejudice. B'ut Nazi influence and viwcr have grown until today they aiir ItaHan Fascism are the.strpnjfcst Ptd-most effective of the imperialist lobbies in Brazilian national life. ' Moreover, the govern¬ ment, fearing a rising tide.of mass dis¬ content with its exploitive and op¬ pressive policies, begins to sec the advantages of a scapegoat. It is mov ing rapidly toward open alliance with thc Fascist Intcgralists, to the cuU' sternation of Brazilian Jewry. How far and how fast it proceeds in this direction it is still difficult to say. But there are ominous portents. The most recent was a discriminatory police reg¬ ulation against Jewish settlers, and there are indications of further re¬ strictions to come.
It is in the light ol these facts that inunigration, the other prime problem in relation to Jews and Brazil, nutst be considered. Briefly stated, the sit¬ uation is as follows: Thc pressure of Jewish persecution in Eastern and Central Europe and the limited fields for immigration (Palestine and Biro¬ bidjan included) arc such that no pos¬ sibility can be left unexplored. Brazil, an ,underpopulated land, needs immi¬ grants, particularly agricultural work¬ ers, and in the past has shown willing¬ ness to permit large-scale Jewish de¬ velopment of the land. There are alsu limited prospects for skilled craftsmen and artisans. There is, however, a definite policy of excluding immigrants from commercial and industrial pur¬ suits and from thc professions. And there is—I teamed tbat it exists in Argentina and other South American countries as well—a gi'owing Fascist danger.
In the circumstances, the number and type of Jewish immigrant must be subject to strict limitations. Brazil itself will impose some. Th? Min¬ ister of Immigration of the State of Sao Paulo informed me that Jews be¬ came good farmers but refused to re¬ main sot Almost invariably, hc com¬ plained, they returned to Industrial, professional and urban Hfe. Hence the government has determined to pre¬ vent this by making It illegal for "agricultural" immigrants to leave the land within five years after their arrival.
Yet I believe that under proper auspices-cooperative colonies, organ¬ ized and functioning through respon¬ sible Jewish agencies—there are im- Lwrtant possibilities for Jewish settle¬ ment in Brazil. 'Prospective inliab- itants will fnter no r^ady-madc heaven. They will Umporarily face material hardships and cultural loneli¬ ness. They will be far from the cen¬ ters of Jewish life. They will find certain hostile influences ranged (Continued on page 4)
