This, we would like to point out. would be worse than an outright refusal of the plea for the formation of a Jew¬ ish Army, since it would com¬ pletely nullify whatever political effect a Jewish armed force in Palestine might have on the fu¬ ture of the Jewish Homeland . ..

THIS AND THAT Olf you want to get an excel¬ lent idea of what is happening to the Jews in what used to be Poland, put on your list of must reading "The New Order in Po¬ land", by Simon Segal . . .

E. .1. Schanfarber. president of the local United .lewish Fund since its organization Ifi years ago, declared this wecik Ihat American .lewry has already re¬ sponded 10 Ihe unprecedented .suffering of .lews throughout the world Svith inci'cased contribu¬ tions to Ihe United Jewish Ap¬ peal, according to reports re¬ ceived from other communities already engaged In campaigns. This respon.se Is expected to have Its reflections in Columbus m attendance at the formal open¬ ing event and in contributions. According to 1-W.Garek, chair¬ man ot the campaign organiza¬ tion committee, the men's wo¬ men's and youth divisions have been folding a series of individ¬ ual team meeting's At these they prosi)pc{9-»dtjCtiiiSfghe*it|ieto£.t<( those workers who eari do the most good In securing the larg¬ est rounding up of Columbus Jews and getting them to do whal is required of them in meet- In.g their responslblHtles and ob¬ ligations as members of a com¬ munity of free men. The chairmen of all divisions are gralified l>y Ihe fine response given to them by the workers in this year's <irlvo. There Is a wave of enthusiasm among these men. women and youth which Is indeed encouraging to the Fund leaders. Everybody real¬ izes ihe seriou.sness of the lfl'12 emergency. The needs are real and much greater Ihan hefore this counlry's entry Inlo the world conlliot. "Each year Columbus Jcwrj' has shown Ihat 11 can in a uni¬ tedl effort succeed in producing results worthy of the ciommun- ily and of which 11 can be proud." Robert W. Schiff. gener¬ al campaign chairman, stated. "The war challenges us to do more anfi nol less", he said. "The loss of a large group of givers who have joined the arm¬ ed forces of this country and a number of substantial contribu¬ tors who died during Ihe past year makes incTeases on the part of all of us Imperative," Mr. Schiff declared. It is the opinion of the Chron¬ icle that every man, woman and child of the Jewish faith in Co¬ lumbus should respond to one of the most vital responsibilities which a great and Bolemn his- y toric moment has P^ced ujion Jewish Fund this year Is not a gift to' others. It is an Invest¬ ment in self-defense. It is a mo¬ bilization to defend our far-flung battle lines, our morale and our spirit. It Is a move to strength¬ en our Allies while developing at tho same lime in ourselves and in our children thai .spirit which alone will enable us to re¬ build Ihe world for which we are fighting. I'he maximum one can give is nol loo much for these noo<is.
