Hitler will answer Roosevelt's fireside chat of December 29th by announcing even more cruel anti-Jewish measures for Nazl- occuplea territories . . . That's to teach the American Jewish warmongers a lesson, say his henchmen . . . It's true that the Vichy-washy govermnent isnft doing much standing up against Hitler, but did you know that the French food supply these days varies in direct proportion to the friendliness of Vichy's at¬ titude toward Berlin? . . . wnien no Nazis are listening the Noi> wegians always call Joseph "Ter- boven, Gennan governor of their country, by the Ipglcal- Bounding nickname Boven ; It's logical because in Nonveg- lan—at least, so we're told- the word Boyen means "thief" . . .Don't be surprised If it grad¬ ually becomes more difficult to get inside dope on Nazlland from foreign correspondents back home for a vacation . That is, unless they don't want to go back to their job . . . For example, Edwin Hartrlch, the CBS newscaster who had the temerity to tell Americans what's really going on in Ber¬ lin, has been advised by the Nazi authorities that he would be wiser not to come back to
In the eyea of the NbeI |[ov> ernment all Gennaps who live abroad—they're officially called Aujlandsdeutsche — can claliti the city of Stuttgart as their home . . And don't think that the term Auslandsdeutsche in¬ cludes only those who have emi¬ grated from Germany ... In fact, the leader of the "Ger¬ mans Abroad," Ernst Wllhehn Behle, was himBelf bom in Eng¬ land and brought up-in South Africa ... In Stuttgart, too, are cjchlaustlve archives in which complete and accurate Informa¬ tion on everybody and anybody connected with j^erican in¬ dustrial, commercial and politi¬ cal life is kept ... If, for ex¬ ample, Herr Bohle should want to luiow details on the life his. tory of Tankel Cohen or Mike O'Leary or Otto Schultz, who may be a machine operator or bookkeeper in some small fac¬ tory in a Uttle Midwestern town, he would be able to get the In¬ formation within twenty-four hours pf the filing of Ws re¬ quest . . , Did you know that II Grldo della . Stripe, a pviblica- tlon distributed In this country by the Mussblinl-lovers, carries antl-Semltlc propaganda as vir¬ ulent as that published hi Jul¬ ius Streicher's Der Stuermer? . . . And for a laugh, consider the plight of WUUam Dudley Pelley's lawyers, who had to at¬ tach the Silver Shirt fuehrer's furniture to obtain their fee for keeping Jihn out of Jail . . .

JJEW TORK (WNS)—A pro¬ posal .for the estabUshment by the CpunoU of Jewish Federa- tfdps- and Welfare Funds of a riailonal advisory budgeting service to "avoid the friction'' and chaos of competitive ap¬ peals" Is now under considera¬ tion by leaders of federations and welfare funds throughout the country following the dc- cision of the major national andill overseas agencies to condt^i| separate campaigns in 1941. 'JjB
The   proposal   has   been «e|!P, forward by Sidney HoUander Cif Baltimore,     president ' of    the Council,   in   a   letter   to   presi¬ dents ot the 202 member agen¬ cies ot the Council in the Uni¬ ted States and Canada and wUj _ be one of the   major questions ' to be acted on when the Coun¬ cil's General Assembly meets In Atlanta on February 1, 2 and 3.
Relating the events which led up to the decision of the Joint Distribution Committee, the United Palestine Appeal and the National Refugee Service not to renew their Joint fund- raising arrangement for the comiiig year, Mr. Hollander urg-" ed local leaders to discuss his proposal aiid to be prepared to act on It at the General Ab- sembiy.      ¦ ¦' ,¦
Under Mr Hollander's pro¬ posal, the Council would under taHe to set up Jtq own advls-
"    '     " ¦             ""16^4
_   _ ^5fl-'*^ii>niend8tions r^'soj*-'-' that tb^ can make tJjelr ,19'll ' declalohs oh a basis of   iiat^- fuUy detemjhied needs, t'^hcrr than as a result of competitive pressure."
Asserting that the present sit uation "contains many elementb of uncertainty and perhaps some hazards to welfare fund cam paigns." Mr. HoUander- stated • "I am firmly convinced that even with separate appeals, wel fare funds wlli continue as vig¬ orously as before to promote the policy of local cooperation I urge strongly that all possible steps be taken by local com munlties to avert any undesir able aspects ot competition for funds which were so detrlnnen tal to campaign efforts In the past and left trials of friction and ill-wUl. There can be no question that welfare funds will continue to put forth the same energies and enthusiasih In or der to secure adequate funds for these Important Jewish causes, jbut they should -not allow their communities to be¬ come battle groimds for com¬ petitive causes."
