It. was under his direction that American Jewry poured mil¬ lions of dollars into new center buildings. In addition to his posi¬ tion ns head of the Jewish Welfaro Board, tho parent body of tho cen¬ ter movement, he was prominently identified with many phases of Jewish life. Glucksman was one of the founders and first president of tho National Asaociation of Jewi.sh Center Workers.

BERLIN (WNS)—Fear in Jew¬ ish circles hero that Hitler's ad¬ dreas to tlie Reichstag would, con¬ tain an announcement of new and more rigorous anti-.Tcv/ish mea¬ sures proved groundless when he ended his speech without discuss¬ ing tho Jewish question at all. His only reference to Jews came during his reiterated attacks on Soviet RuBBia. Once he said "if we had acted during these fivo years likp the democratio world citizens of Soviet KuBain, that is liko tho.'^c of the Jcwiah race, wo would not have succeeded in making out of a Germany, which was in thp'deepest material collapse, a country of material order." At another point ho aaid Germany would have no relations with Soviet Rusaia be¬ cause 'wo see in bolshevism more than ever before the reincarnation pf human destructive forces. We do not blamo the Russian people as such for this gruesome ideology of destruction. Wo know ifc lis a small Jewish Intellectual group which^led a great nation into this poaition of madneaa."
