Dr. Bcnjanrtin Edidin of New York proposed thc use of Jewish centers as meeting places for all Zionist groups in tho com¬ munity, for spreading Zionist lit¬ erature, organizing discussion clubs devoted to Zionism and ad¬ vocating among the membership^ the desirability of visiting Pales-' tine to see and report the accom¬ plishment of the Zionist pioneers. Dr. Samuel- Dinin, president of the educators' group, declared in his presidential address, that for all persecuted Jews, included so- called "quarter Jews," "the "only road to' dignity and self-respect is the road back to their people, to the culturo and traditions and companionship of the people with whom they are identified whether they will it or not. The only way to travel this road is through a process of Jewish education and re-education. Young and old must go back to the fountain of Jew¬ ish learning and lore and get from them sustenance and strength to enable them to face the world fearless and unafraid as Jews." Assimilation theories, ho aaid, are "bankrupt." Harry L. Greenstein of Baltimore, president of the social workers, told his colleagues that Jevfish social work must find a new approach and adopt "a cleancut philosophy" if it is to adapt itself to changing conditions. "We must re-eicamine the goal of Jewish aocial work in the United States and try to develop ways and. nieans on the basis of which wo can broaden our aupport and, even more important, broaden par¬ ticipation ao that every alratiflca-

Urges Protestant Drive For Victims Of Anti-Semitism
PHILADELPHIA (WNS)— Charging that "the Christian churches of America to date have miserably failed" in their duty in meeting the Jewish problem, Dr. Conrad Hoffman, Jr., assist¬ ant aecretary of the Presbyterian Board of National Missions, toldi a conference preceding the opening of the ISOth general assembly of the Presbyterian Church that It ought to lead tho Protestant de¬ nominations in this country in raising a fund to aid Hitler's vic¬ tims of antl-Seraltisra. Empha¬ sizing that anti-Semitic sentiment in this country is on tho increase and that jliany denominations have repeatedly protested against it. Dr. Hottman said "wo aro duty bound to put our protests into action. Wo aro duty bound to help those who are victims of anti- Semitism. If we are to do our duty, wo -will consider firat the cause and ' consequence of anti- Semitismi -In the second place, we will realize thnt wo never will evangelize i the Jewa Bntil we Cbrlationlzel tho Christiana. Every¬ one of our churches which haa Jows in tho neighborhood should include thim in the Christian neighborly program of the church. Maybe then a pronouncement that all anti-Semltl&m here and abroad is contrary to the Christian faith would be in order. But we would havo to back up any such pro¬ nouncement with action. I have hoped that our church would ho tho flrilt t(> go out and raise a fund against anti-Semitism, but none has raised money,"
community programs. We must de¬ velop a greater Jewish cohcsive- noss artd solidarity in Jewiah life in America." Pointing out that "the original concepts 'on the basis ot which Jewish organizations and Jewiah federations were set up aro entirely different now than in years gone by," Mr. Greenstein said "we will need a new approach in the new and changing world in which we are living. Until we clari¬ fy our thinking with regard to the objectives of Jewish social Work we will bo merely temporiz¬ ing with the critical issues racing us, instead of following a clean- cut philosophy."

WASHINGTON, D. C.

No action is ic(|uii-ed by either thc Senate or the Proaident on this resolution but hofoiD the ^inquiry can actually Plot under way another resolution appi oprialing funds is needed ainco tlio Die-; resolution carries Mio au¬ thorization for funds. Opposition to tho resolution wai led by Eeprc- tontative Maverick of Texas who said there was no need for the investigation. Ho objected to it on tho dual ground that it would Ipad to red-baiting and race-bait¬ ing. Maverick said "it is tim6 this Houso quit four-flushing and bally- hooing. You know that this reso-" lution is aimed particularly at the Ka/i movement. It is not tho Dies resolution. It is the Dickstein reso¬ lution and, the investigation won't disclose anything that we don't nlroady k'now. We know about the Nazi camps but what ia an inveati- gation going to do about them? I wain you that thia investigation will cause race hatred and may prove the entering wedge for per¬ secution. Don't forgot thnt the Gel-mans may get the best of you. There are more Germans in this country than there are Jews."
The House voted after a two- hour debate during which Bepre- sentative Dies revealed he had in-- foiTOation that a member of the German-American Bund, in a speech at one of its camps, had advocated' tbe   assassination

Declaring that "it is a confusion of terma to call, as you do, the torture of religion and racial persecution as is practiced by Nazi Germany, a domestic policy," tho aigners of the tele¬ gram pointed out by references to statements by Presidents Benjamin Harrison and Theodore Roosevelt that tho exiling of large numbers of people hy -one country is not a local question because they have to ent''er another country.

"We Americans," ho aaid, "havo always heen, and I trust We always will be, alive to tho auflltrings of the oppressed. Today, vrithin thc limits of our existing legislation, wa ara preparing to join with 32 other nations in finding a way to afford help and refugo in aome other part ^ of the world to many thousanda of political refugees from Central Europe. Apart from legitimate humanitarian concern on oUr part, manifested in a constructive man¬ ner, we surely do not advance the cause of world peace by -under¬ taking publicly to assail the domes¬ tic policies of other nations."
He made it plain, however, that "when tho policy of another country endangers our rights or our interests as a nation or when it threatens the maintenance of those basic principles of interna¬ tional law and of conduct to which we have proclaimed our adherenca and' whi<;h wo believe essential to world order, thijn this govem¬ ment should feel frca to adopt such attitude aa it believes the best interests of the American people demand."

Participation In Jewish Congress Vote Rejected By C. J. W.
NEW YOEK (WNS)—A poUey of non-pacticipatlon in tht forth¬ coming referendum of tho Amcri- cili Jewish Congreas Was Voted unaniin(!uBly by the National Coun¬ cil of Jewish Women after a poll taken of tho views of 45 members of' its national board revealed a unanimous Uand on the question, it was announced by Mrs. Maurice Ii. Goldman,'president. The Council declared it considers "undesirable any referendum which seeks to give one group in AmeHca the* right to speak for all" and "inj- possible" to "reflect the thinking of all the Jowish organizations as Well as tha unafltiliated Jews" and omplmaized that "there'is no one group in America, no matter how large its membership or how great ¦ its vote of confidence, that could honestly and ail-inclusively speak , for all the Jews in America,"
At the same time. Dr. Samuel H. Goldenson, rabbi «f Temple Emanu-el, expressed oppoaition to tho referendum in a sermon. He said that in the face ot existine differences among Jows "to de¬ mand a single and oll-inclusive^-^^^ agency to speak for all Jewry ijt ' not only not calculated to fncroafc \ unity, but may even jeopardize/ • the very real unity that now exists among us." He alao expressed the fear that such an organiza¬ tion of all ''the Jews "that speaks of itself as a congreas or sn as¬ sembly, conducts plebiscites or referenda, and allies itself with Jewish organizations of other lands in one grand international body, cannot but give support to the charge tliat we Jews ara pt boltonj racially and r^difally different from the reat of the tJtizans of tlio country. In effect, such an orgunization is an indirect' accept¬ ance of the racial philosophy o! the Hitler rogimo." Kabbi Golden¬ son also oijposed the all-inclnsivo agency because he said he feared it might become involved ia poli¬ tics.
