HOME (WNS)—Italy, is official ly, committed to a policy of anti- Semitism based on ihe rntfo mem¬ orandum drafted, by Italian proles- sor,s in which Italians are classified ns Aryans and JevVs are read out of the'Italian race, Achillo Starace, secretary, general of the Fascist Party, announced, in an official coinmunique giving an account-of, the meeting hotwfJeir himself, Dlno Alfierl, .minister of, popular, cul ture and tho, ten professors 'who wrote the * racist document. The communique stated that^he major activity of institutions, of Fascist culture during (tha coming Fascist year, which begins October ZSth, would be devoted to "inaugurating and popularizing Fascist principles in the matter of race, principles, which already have aroused much;interes,t in Italy and thrc^ugh- oul: tlio 'World."
Starace made it plain that the'! Jews would be ;the principal target of these activities when he said that "Jew's have ;considcred themselves for thousands of years, in Italy, and elsevvhere, as'a 'race', superior aiid apart from other races, and it is a notorious fact that, desipite the tolerant policy of.the regime, Jews of ;oll nations, have constitnted-- witlr their men and money—the general' staff   of   anti-Fascism;"
Warns GOP Voters fe Kansas Against Anti-Semite Wiisrad
Stnraco also declared that thc Aryan theory would be translated into action in the form of precise political measures intended to pro¬ tect tho Italian race against "hy¬ bridism" and "contamination." Fur¬ ther details, concerniiig .the pro¬ posed unti-JeWlsh restriction's ,aro expected to be ,made public in the first ispue of a new racist publica¬ tion tp be issued .early in 'August by the-government's race depart- inent. ,
.Opposition to the new .racial theory.on the part of the Catholic Church has now extended to mili¬ tary circles,. Tho Forza' Armota, of¬ ficial organ of the Italian army, is the only Italian newspaper that has not joined the anti-Jewish press drive, thus indicating its dis¬ pleasure. High army circles, are known to be definitely against tho adoption.of an anti-Jewish policy. -Two reasons aocoiint for this at¬ titude. The first is; tlie traditibnal record.of- Jewish, heroism' in all Italian wars and.the, large number of ranldng Jewish officers. The second'is the fact that many of the highest army officers belong'to families; that; are of -lirewiish origin.

"In.this connection I recall a personal, intei^icw T had with Mussolini In lEonie: six years ago. The Fascist leader assured me most .forcefully and uiiiaquivocally that anti-Semitism would never be, tol¬ erated liy him in Italy. The Jews of; Italy, Il Duce stated, are as old-established Italians as the reBt of tho population. Mussolini quoted from the Uoman historian Sueton- iua concerning how Roman and Jew .mourned sido fay side at the bier of the assassinated JuliuB Caesar. I remember that I supple¬ mented Mussolini's - quotation by lerainding Wm that if the Jews were amplig the chief mourners on that occaaion it was because they had good reason to love Caesar; for; in order to insure the sanctity cf their Sabbath he had changed tho. distribution day of the dole fdr the, Jewish Boor. History, Mussolini told me, will not stand for antl, Semitism in Italy."

The pope's new blast against racism,was made in a talk to 200 ecclesiastical assistants, of. Italian Catholic Action associations. His reference to racism came when he said that "many people seem to forget that in the explicit article of Credo, 'I believe in the Catholic Church,'. Catholic mans universal, and not racist, not nationalistic, not separatistic;" "The spirit of faith,'!, he aaid,' "must fight against the spirit of separatism and against the- spirit of exaggerated nation; alism, which are; detestable, and which just because they are not Christian, end not by being even human;' He also made a reference interpreted.as ah attack on Fad- ciam when he said that the basis of cooperation . between laity nnd clergy underlying the organiza¬ tions-pf Catholic Action Is a con¬ ception that is "greater than won¬ derful; And is one of true democ¬ racy in oppoaitipn to all the fpolish- ness and blasphemy that is uttered nowadays with such facile levity on this subject."
Meanwhile, the general-secretary of the Fasciat Party has ordered a special registry of all party mein- bers according to the new racial theory. Similar inatructioris have been issued-by the associations of lawyers, doctors,.'- engineers and government corporations. Leaders of the assimilations wing of Italian Jewry and representatives of Jew¬ ish converts who called on tha minister of the Interior received assurances that" adoption of the Aryan theory would not., affect their siatua.

The advantages of this new form of,remittance, according;to Intria, Ltd., are two-fold: it gets funds into the hands of the recipient as quickly and at as low a. cost as any method of remittance; and at the. same time' it enables Jewish emi¬ grants to get sufficient funds put of Gcrmjiny to permit emigration.

Panic Grips Italian    ,' Jews As Anti-Semitic Measures Impend
ROME (WiiS)—A veritable panic has gripped Italy's 45,000 Jews as a renewed antl-Semltlc outburst in' the Italian press fore- shadowcd the speedy translation of the recently proclaimed Aryan theory into specifio anti-Je^vish measures* Government circles con¬ tinue to profess complete ignorance concerning any proposed antl-Sem- itle regulations biit it is. widely rumored that jews will bo ousted from the Fascist party and exclud¬ ed from Kalian culture. Meanwhile,' tho Catholic Church again served notico that it will oppose tho antl- Jewish racial drive ns anti-rellg- ioua-by permitting the circulation of leaflets urging Italian Catholics to defy the racial" doctrine. The leaflets,. which were widely,dis¬ tributed during Sunday services, state: "the racial theory seeks to replace the rule .of law by the rule ;of blood hatred. It is an attack againat religion..
Virginio Gayda, authoritative government spokesman, soiinded tho keynote for the press out¬ burst, in the Giomale d'ltalia when ho wrote that tho defense of the Italian, race against non-Aryan, infiltrations ,is duty deriving frpm "the accentuated experience of con¬ temporary ppliticni' and spiritual history. The race problpin, there¬ fore, ceases to be a doctrinal prob¬ lem and becomes an essential, con¬ crete, immediate question of policy.

NEW-YORK (WNS)—Recbgnl- tiou bythe 32 participating govern¬ ments that the refugee problem "wna one of humanity nnd not the concern of a few groups of peo¬ ple," was the. principal achieve¬ ment of tho Evaln refugee . aid conference, Rabhi Jonah B. Wiae, national campaign chairman of the Joint Distribution Committee, who attended the conference as an un¬ official observer for thc J. D. C, tho only American agency, repre¬ sented, declared on his return from abroad; Praising Myron C. Taylor, chairman of tho American delega¬ tion for doini? "a marvelous job in kcepinif ttie confprence to its task and from the failurS freely predicted for it by cynical observ¬ ers. Rabbi Wisp said that as a re¬ sult of tha leadership of , the United States, 'the nonference "marked the beginning of a new ere in the rise of democracy from its humiliating deference to world tyrants" and "served., principally to sound a note of humanity and protest against tho problem aris¬ ing out of the actions of a totali¬ tarian government."   .
Estimating that about 5BO,000 Jews are affected by the present regime in Germany and Austria, and that about 130,009 Jews havo emigrated from Germany' since 1933, Rabbi Wise aaid, that tho conference had no expectation, of furthering mass emigration frpm. Germany. ;"Rather, the cphference seemed to bo resolved that Ger¬ many should be made to understand that the nations of tho world, can¬ not expect to absorb :a mass exodua from that; country," he said. 'While Germany waa not mentioned by name but. only alluded to, it can be: reasonably expected that onciof the next steps to he taken by the con¬ ference; would -be, :t» contact the German:government on:the ques- ,tion pf allowing, .these; emigrants $fetHi&*«ffiSSn!3fl^51Soft!ori^-^5S^ iJheir'possessipns ivitii .them;s6 ai to facilitate their entry In.coun¬ tries 'where theJr can Pnter legally under' establiahed; quptas.".

They comprise tha great middle class of artiaahs, -professional men and women and trained buaineaa men that is the backbone of.every nation'; It is a noteworthy fact that this omigration has been gping on since 1933 and that thoso people have net become a burden to; theii cpmmunities."
Asked if there was any conllici bet-ween American Jewry's philan. thrppies hero and. abroad, ^Babbi Wise stated: "The American Jew¬ iah agencj;:! aiding Germnn refu¬ gees have primarily the interest of America and Americana at'heart They will not dp anything to In¬ jure these intereata.Their sym¬ pathies for America's need^ come first and in no lyay have their cf- forts in behalf of German Jewiah refugees and thoir brethren in faith in other European lands caused American Jewiah philanthropies to devis^te in any 'way .from local re, SRphaibilities."

While tha Joint Diatribu- tinn Committee was the only Am¬ erican; agency represented at ths conference at.Evian,'it offered no advice; but it did pledge to support the program of the Conference.
