American aviation circles claim that the reason Nutzi Germany ifi making such a big play to win Lindbergh's ' friendship is that the Nanis feel, they may he, able to.Ufle him to get tho helium they want from Uncle Sam.. .Which re¬ minds us. that, Lindbergh's home in Berlin will be tho swanky apart¬ ment formerly occupied by Sam¬ uel Einzfcld; a wealthy Jewish rug manufacturer who is now languish¬ ing: in a concentration, camp .

Those in the kntiw are far from optimistic about the various colo¬ nization schemes and territories being offeied to Geiman Jewry by the Biitish government..

There's a good chance, too, that the Red Cioss will shoitly take a hand in tbe refugee situation caused by the Gory Swastika...

Dr. Lew¬ isohn will bring to the Columbus audience enlightening observations and reflections on the many prob¬ lems .confroritihg Jewry, at the present time.
KabbiJ. G. Heller
The other guest speaker, who needs little or no introduction to the Columbus Jewish community, is Rabbi James G. Heller of Cin¬ cinnati, for many years a leader in the Palestine i upbuilding, move¬ ment. As on all previous addresses, here, Rabbi Heller's inspiring words .will no di^ubt again have a tremendous influence : upon .his listeners in the support of Hadas- sah's noble work in the Holy LaVid.
The Chronicle feels certain that a real treat is in store for, the many hundreds iri our community who will be privileged to attend this year's Donor event.

BERLIN (WNS)—The sweeping wave of anti-Jewish tei i or and ar¬ rests which followed the ahootuig of Ernst vom Rath hy a IT-yeai^ old boy in Pans, although bem^ conducted more quietly^ has not subsided. Many who escaped arrest by fleeing their homes just before the last Nazi onslaught are beittg rounded up and arrested now.
Word from Nazi-controlled Daij- 2ig reveals that large-scale raids are in progress there. Homes, hotels and boarding houses have been searched m Danzig, Zoppot and Oliva,: and Jews unable,to prove regular employment or show passports were herded across the border into Poland, In Kassal, where Jews are allowed no credit and where non-Jewish stores are closed to them, a special store haa been opened where they may pm- chase the necessaries'of life.
Aa Nazi excesses against the Jews continue here an .additional drain has been imposed on Jewish welfaie organizations already oveitaxed. In some quaiters the m- crease in the burden was estimated at 2,000,000 marks ,($800,000), a month.

BmiLIN". (WNS)—Unless tbe liemocraciuH evacuate tho Germnn Jews ftt once and at their own exuenae, they will be starved In¬ to crime and then exterminated with "fire and sword." This is Ihe lurid picture 'of the fnie con¬ fronting German Jews as spjashud across the front page of Schwnrxe Korps, organ of'the Gestapo (sec¬ ret police) and Flitler Elite Guard, which together dominote the Ger¬ mnn'domestic situation. The first stop toward carrying out.the plan which the Na7,i organ outlines will be a new anti-Jewish decree issued by Field Marshal . Herman Goer¬ lng: under whom all measures for "liquidation" of the Jews^now he¬ ing issued in rapid' succession- will   be  concentrated-    '
The new decree, it ia understood, will create definite gl;iett03 by com¬ pelling the Jews to live in' certain lestricted districts ih a restricted number of cities, probably 25. At the same time they are io be ex¬ cluded under pain of punishment from certain parts of, cities in which they will be, permiti^d tp dwell such as Berlin's government district, and from other cities such ns Potsdam, Weimar and Rerchtes- gnden; they will be bahned en- tireb.
