The joint session of the two Zionist bodies went on record also as repudiating the program of the recently-established Ichud party, headed by Dr. Judah L. Magnes. president of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, which advocates a bi-national state in Palestine. The resolution, which had been adopted previously by both the ZOA and Hadassah at separate meetings, endorsed "the policy I of friendship and cooperation! with the Arabs of Palestine affirmed by successive Zionist Congresses, and will seek to find every possible avenue to establish good-will and active collaboration between the two peoples." At the closing session of the i ZOA's 45th annual convention, attended by more than 1,000 delegates from all over the coun-' try. Judge Louis E. Levinthal of Philadelphia was elected unanimously for a second term as president. Dr. Harry Friedenwald of Baltimore and Judge Julian Mack were elected honj ary vice presidents. Dr. James. SGT. MEYER LEVIN GETS 2nd DECORATION FOR ATTACK New York (WNS)Sergeant Meyer Levin of Brooklyn, N. Y.. the Jewish bombardier for the late Captain Colin Kelly, who was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for sinking the Japanese battleship Haruna, has now been awarded the Silver Star for gallantry in an attack of Jap warships in the Coral Sea battle, according to reports from General MacArthur's headquarters In Australia. The official citation describing Sgt. Levin's feat said that despite heavy anti-aircraft fire, "eight 500-pound bombs were dropped, bracketing the low of a 15,000-ton transport and inflicting heavy damage." Both when he flew with Captain Kelly and in the Coral Sea battle, the Jewish ace was forced to bail out. Brooklyn friends and neighbors of the twice-decorated Army Air Force hero have announced that they will celebrate Sergeant Meyer Levin Day on November 1. A feature of the celebration will be the dedication of a plaque in front of the Levin home, 1504 East 33rd Street, Brooklyn.

Its Many and Varied Activities By E. Albert Pallot Past President Y. M. H. A. I have watched the Y. M. H.

Lehman and Dr. Louis Finkelstein, president of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, to discuss the development of a consistent, integrated program for the seminary, in its efforts to strengthen the Jewish faith and democratic tradition. In his call to the conference, addressed to congregations affiliated with the seminary and to prominent members of the American Jewish community. Governor Lehman indicated that the challenge laid down by the enemies of civilization to the Jewish faith is "obviously but one phase of an onslaught of all western religions." "The preservation of Judaism thus becomes, more clearly than ever," the governor asserts, "an essential element in the defense and advancement of civilization." The Seminary Conference will deal with the contribution which the Jews of America can make toward national solidarity and toward overcoming religious bigotry and other forms of group dissension, and will stress the need for raising Jewish moral and spiritual standards. It will especially point to the intimate relationship and spiritual alliance between democratic life and religious tradition. The conference will open with a plenary session and will feature the convening of seminar groups to deal with the various departments and religious functions of the seminary in the light of new war-time conditions. It will mark the opening of Seminary Anniversary Week, commemorating the fifty-fifth anniversary of the founding of the seminary and the fortieth anniversary of its reorganization under Solomon Schechter and Cyrus Adler. Other outstanding events to be held this week include a special Commencement of the Rabbinical School in order to enable the senior class to enter upon pastoral duties in preparation for the Chaplaincy; a Conference of Adult Jewish Education; and a Fifty-fifth Anniversary Dinner. Among the outstanding members of the Miami Jewish Community who has associated himself with the Honorable Herbert H Lehman and Dr. Louis Finkelstein in calling the November 8 Conference is Stanley C. Myers. He is one of close to a hundred Jewish leaders who has undertaken the sponsorship ol the conference. GREATER MIAMI ARMY-NAVY COMMITTEE TO HOLD MEET On Sunday. October 25. at 10 a ii there will be a meeting of the Greater Miami Army-Navy Committee at the Miami Beach Service Men's Center, 1711 Alton Road. Miami Beach. Every member of the committee is urged to be present and attend this important meeting. Stockholm (WNS) Netherlands Jews are applying to be certified as lunatics and sent to insane asylums in order to avoid deportation to eastern Europe, the pro-German Stockholm newspaper "Aftonbladct," reorted this week. The paper said pnysicians were complying with these requests on the ground that the Jews had become lunatics, "owing to the horrible cruelty" to which they have been subjected. The newspaper denounced the practice as an "insolent imposture," and said that "among those confined are well-known Haarlem people who formerly never showed any signs of mental deficiency." "If they were taken to Poland and not treated over-kindly miraculous recoveries would take place," the pro-German paper said. "Netherlands physicians who so kindly send them to asylums should be sent with them." "Aftonbladet" also recommended that "Jewish lunatics be segregated in separate institutions." IF.L ASKS POSTDESCRIBES NAZI KILLING OP JEWS New York (WNS) Leland Stowe, noted war correspondent, in a special dispatch to the New York Post and Chicago Daily News, reported this week his meeting with Potya Kaputovski, a 12-year-old soldier serving with the Red Army on the Rzhev front. The youthful soldier, whose father was killed while fighting with a Soviet guerrilla unit and whose mother, brothers and sisters were massacred by the Nazi invaders, described to the American war reported the Nazi slaughter of Jews and guerrilla fighters: "I lived in a village near Kalinin. The Germans came in October. Right away they looked for all Jews and all relative:; of .partisans (guerrillas) in our village. My father and many other men had gone into the forest to be partisans. "The Germans came looking for people in every house. When they came to our house. I hid under the steps with my brother Shura. who is nine. The Fascists took my mother and my two younger brothers and my two sisters. They tied their hands with rope. Then they led them into the biggest house in our village. All the families of partisans and all the Jews they could find they put in the same house. "We were terribly frightened, but we could sec from under the steps. And then, when the Germans had filled the big house with people, they set it on fire they burned it down." Petya. who later was adopted by a Red Army unit on the Rzhev sector, said that some of the children "couldn't walk and their mothers carried them when ithe Fascist soldiers pushed them into the house." TORONTO (WNS) The American Federation of Labor, holding its 47th annual convention in this city, this week adopted a declaration condemning Nazi crimes against the Jews in occupied Europe and demanding that the United States take steps to guarantee freedom and equality to Jews in post-war Europe. The declaration, read by Mathew Woll. vice-president of the American Federation of Labor, urged also that the United Nations guarantee to the Jews "their independence under the Balfour Declaration on the soil of Palestine." It expressed organized labor's sympathy for the persecuted Jews in Europe and extended assurances of support. The adoption of the declaration followed a report by Julius Hochman, vice-president of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union, on Nazi crimes against the civilian populations of the occupied countries. The declaration said: "Traditionally, the American Federation of Labor has affirmed its sympathy with one of the most unjustly and tragically persecuted of all minoritiesthe Jewish people. At present this unfortunate group of the human brotherhood is enduring not only the usual barbarous and detestable excesses of the Nazis towards conquered peopleit is being subjected to a program of systematic extermination which (CONTINUED ON PAGE 3) NAZIS COULD HAVE TAKEN PALESTINE LAST SPRING New York (WNS).Palestine could have been invaded by the Nazis last May but the danger to the Holy Land. Syria. Cyprus and Turkey is past, at least for the remainder of 1942. according to a dispatch to the New York Times from Smyrna. Turkey. Palestine was said to be temporarily safe because of the withdrawal of Nazi and Italian troops from the Aegean Islands. "Allied military and naval circles say the enemy committed their gravest error since the German failure to attempt an invasion of Britain following the collapse of France in the summer Of 1940 when the Germans and Italians failed last May to attack the weak defenses of Syria at d Palestine simultaneously with their Libyan offensive." the N % York Times report said. "Only the Turks were ready last May and an operation aimed across Syria at Iraq's oil and into Palestine to sever Allied communications was feasible, according to leading foreign military experts. Fewer than 20 divisions would have sufficed to give the Germans a critical, perhaps fatal, foothold in Syria and Palestine and perhaps even in Cypress whose defenses early last spring were something that Allied military air experts would rather not talk about."

BIRON. THE B'NAI B'RITH The B'nai B'rith entered the hundredth year of its existence this past week. It is an occasion that well deserves commendation and celebration but President Monsky has indicated that the festivities which would ordinarily attend such an event will be postponed to such a time when the country is restored to peace. In 1841, when the oldest of Jewish orders was established, the Jewish population of the United States was about one-fifth or one-sixth of the present Jewish population of Palestine. The whole population of the United States, in fact, was not more than four or five times that of the present Jewish population of the United States. Railroad building on a miniature scale had just begun. There was no telegraph, no electricity. Industry as a whole was just beginning as far as the United States was concerned. "Old Hickory" had but recently left the White House. The country had but a short time previouslyin 1837 undergone the depression of Van Buren's administrationand was now beginning to get back into economic shape. The Mexican and Civil Wars had not yet been fought. In the space of this hundred years, not a long time when we consider that individuals who attain the age of one hundred years are to be found here and there, and yet in a society, a century brings an enormous difference. It is a mistake to think that all the revolutions come by arms and blood. Time itself brings about revolutions. It is a tribute to the original soundness of the Order B'nai B'rith that while numerous other orders have risen from time to time, and passed away, the B'nai B'rith has not only grown old with dignity but paradoxically we may say, it has grown younger with the years, if vigor and vitality are the criterions. RELIGION AND DEMOCRACY "Religion, whether it be Protestant, Catholic or Jewish, holds that the individual is fundamentally important because he is the child of God. It maintains that this status gives him inherent rights which no man-made government can deny. "There is great danger that a nation which fails to maintain an active religion will have egually little interest in protecting that individuality of its citizens which is so vital an attribute of democracy. "Without religious idealism to give it character in times of stress, a nation will tend almost inevitably to fall under the sway of totalitarianism as the easiest method of meeting emergencies." Governor Lehman. ALL-OUT DEVOTION ". All of the ordinary ambitions and occupations of man's normal life pass into the background, and the call is urgent for us to devote ourselves primarilyand well-nigh exclusivelyto bringing this barborous conflict to an end, before it shall have wholly destroyed or imprisoned the fundamental principles upon which our free and liberal civilization rests and must rest. "Great as is the responsibility to be borne by the older generation, the responsibility which faces the youth of today is greater still. They, and not their elders, will have to wrestle with the grave problems of a world which must be reconstructed so as to strengthen and protect the underlying principles of freedom and liberal thought. It is the fate of these which is now hanging in the balance. First must come victory and then a world so organized and so strengthened as not only to establish peace, but to protect permanent peace." Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. AMERICAN LABOR The recentiy-concluded convention of the American Federation of Labor, which includes in its membership several million American workers, called upon the United Nations to take adeguate steps to guarantee to the Jews freedom and eguality in post-war '< TtrvilCiVV REPORT Europe.

Ziff, author of "The Coming Battle of Germany," w a the off-the-record speaker at a dinner given last week at Ne York's Waldorf-Astoria by the Committee for a Jewish Army Yes, that was charming Mrs. Julian Sieroty of Beverly Hills, California, listening so intently to the stirrin address She stands in the vanguard of the fighters fa the Jewish Army idea And that distinguished gentleman sitting next to dinner chairman Louis Nizer was the Honorable Dave Hennen Morris, former American ambassador to Belgium. gathered from all parts of the country, demanded also that the United Nations extend to the Jews assurances of "their independence under the Balfour Declaration on the soil of Palestine." At a time when half the world is plunged in darkness and misery, this directive from organized American labor is a source of courage and inspiration. The AFL's uneguivocal expression of sympathy and support for the Jewish people is in the finest traditions of American labor. It will give renewed courage and strength to the hundreds of thousands of down-trodden Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe who now know that they have gained another powerful ally. The half million Jews standing guard in Palestine will be immeasurably heartened by the announcement that American labor is in complete agreement with their hopes and aspirations. It has been said that weapons alone will not win this war; that ideals and principles are more potent than weapons. The speeches of Hitler & Co. will not win this war. But the sense of decency and justice of the free people, of which the AFL is a notable example, will inevitably balance the scales for an Allied victory. UNITY "We must not only seek unity within our national borders, but we must safeguard that unity with the right motives. Through fear and hatred of a foreign foe we may secure a temporary amity between management and labor, between farm bloc and city consumer, between negro and white, between Jew and Gentile, between Romanist and Protestant. "But fear is a stimulant which eventually weakens, and hatred can easily become a boomerang. If all that unites us now as Americans is the threat of foreign danger, then beware of what will happen when the war is over. Our fears and hatreds may turn in on ourselves and weshall have a revival of the Ku Klux Klanism which disgraced our country after the last war." Rev. Dr. Ralph W. Sockman. FRENCH CHURCH PROTESTS VICHY POLICY "Without ignoring or misunderstanding the extreme complexity of the situation wherein the authorities find themselves, the Reformed Church of France cannot, however, further remain silent before the sufferings of thousands of human beings who have received asylum on our soil. "The Christian Church would have lost its soul and reason for existence if it did not maintain that divine law is above all human contingencies. And that divine law does not permit that families created by God shall be broken up, children separated from their mothers, the right of asylum and its compassion be unrecognized, the respect of the human person transgressed and beings without defense delivered to tragic fates. "The church demands of the faithful to bend with the compassion of the good before the distress of those who suffer and to intercede without pause before God, who alone can deliver us from all ills." National Council of the Reformed Church of France. Get in the scrap by giving your scrap, and by buying War Savings Stamps and Bonds regularly. Note to those who still grouse about the hospitality America is showing to refugees from Hitlerism: Sergeant Julius Schellenberg of Brooklyn, who is one of the little group of American heroes awarded the Purple Heart decoration for bravery in the Pacific war theatre, came to this country as a refugee only a few years ago There are any number of little eating places in Manhattan run by refugees from Nazi Germany and Austria, but we know of only one actual night club that belongs to a refugee, and he came here to escape the Nazi in France He's Arthur Lesser, who had had a night club in Paris, and, when the Gestapo marched in, came over here to open "La Vie Parisienne" on East 52nd Street ... All the entertainers in the club are, appropriately enough, from France to Korea. LISTEN HERE Typical of a New York election campaign is the exchange of courtesies between candidate Lieutenant Governor Charles Poletti and Supreme Court Justice Bernard Botein First the Lieutenant Governor gave a party for Yiddish newspapermen to enlist their support for Botein And then the Justice gave a party for Italian newspapermen to enlist their ditto for Poletti You haven't heard much about the War Production Board's Joseph D. Weiner, but he's one of its most important members, serving as deputy director of the Service of Civilian Supply and chairman of the Committee on Concentration, which aims at organization of our war industry at maximum efficiency Hats off to Harry Rosen, Brooklyn restaurateur, for evolving the bright idea that all service men in New York on Thanksgiving Day should get free turkey dinners from the town's eateries Other cities please copy. BOOK NEWS Over a guarter of a million books and more than half a million magazines have been sent to our soldier boys everywhere by the Victory Pastime Committee of the American Women's Voluntary Services, reports Mrs. Zachary Goldstein, who is in charge of'collecting the reading matter in New York ... If you want the real inside story of the first three years of this war, spend two bits for "I Saw It Happen," the Pocket Book people's compilation of eye witness accounts of practically every phase of the conflict, by nineteen people, who know what they're talking about Franz Werfel's "Forty Days of Muso Dagh" was a best seller, too, but we don't believethough we don't have the figures on handthat it came up to the record set by his "Song of Bernadette," of which 402,000 copies have been printed to date Among the interesting facts that come to light in Andre Maurois' autobiography, "I Remember, I Remember." is the revelation that it was at the reguest of the French censor that he changed his name from the original Herzog The occasion was the publication of his "Colonel Bramble" tales during the first world war The censor felt that the name Herzog was too German to be signed to a French book about an Englishman. BROADWAY LIGHTS The sensation of the Ballet Theatre season at the Metropolitan Opera House is the fantasy "Aleko," with settings and costumes designed by Marc Chagall, who until 1940 was celebrated throughout France as one of her outstanding surrealist artists Ferenc Molnar, famed as a writer of brightly witty comedies, is turning to the serious drama in there serious times, they tell us, and is working on a play about Napoleon The younger generation sure is making its bid for fame The company that's touring New York's subway circuit with the play "Stage Door" includes two actresses rather new to the professionMaxine Marx, daughter of Chico, and Marily Cantor, daughter of Eddie ... If you want to get the low-down on the career of Second Avenue's Mollie Picon, go uptown to 58th Street, where at the theatre that now bears her name, La Picon is appearing in, of all things, an autobiographical play ... At least, we think we may call it that, since it tells Mollie's life story, though its author is not the star but her husband, Jacob Kalich.

Mrs David de Sola Pool of Mew York City was re-elected as president of Hadassah^ Mrs. Pool who will serve as Hadassah nresi'dcnt for the third consecum-e year, was prevailed upon to i accept the nomination after she -ad announced that she would run for re-election because jhe Hadassah convention had [ adopted the resolution repudiat% n tbe Ichud program. Mrs. Pool MS one of the Hadassah leaders who sought to have the convention endorse the Ichud program as announced in Palestine. The Hadassah convention I adopted a budget of $1,210,000 for its war emergency and regular health program, child welfare, feeding, refugee and land reclamation work in Palestine. The delegates also voted to send $5,000 as a gift to Miss Henrietta Sz'old, 82-year-old founder of Hadassah, now in Jerusalem, "to be used for any project which she wishes to further there." The joint closing session of the two organizations was addressed by Mayor La Guardia, Mrs. Pool, Louis Lipsky. former president of the ZOA, and Dr. Alexander Loudon. Netherlands ambassador to the United States. Dr. Stephen S. Wise presided. Mr. Loudon told the mass meeting that "in that reconstructed Dutch house after the war, the Jews of Holland, our Jews, will have their place again."

W. 32nd Street | Netherlands diplomat said"We sympathetically understand what a home means; what we can do | we will do." Mr. Lipsky assailed the failure of Britain to fulfill its declarations for the establishment of a Jewish national home in Pairstine. "England," he said, "has used its authority to liquidate its covenant and its promise. It has rejected all appeals from its decision. It has deprived mem. bers of the League of Nations of the right to intervene in an issue in which they were parties. It has acted as sole judge in a matter of self-interest." A call for a "bold and daring | program" on the part of American Zionists that would evisage the settlement in Palestine upon the conclusion of the war. of between two and three million Jews, coupled with the demand for the establishment of Palestine as "an independent and unfettered Jewish Commonwealth" was the major note in the keynote address of Judge Louis E. % Levinthal, president of the ZOA. In his presidential address. I Judge Levinthal declared that "we must think and speak in | terms of a Palestine in which' full control and supervision of imagination will be in the hands of the Jews and of the Jews alone, for they have shown in Palestine their capacity for selfgovernment. Zionists, he added, demanded the establishment of Palestine as a Jewish Commonwealth, entirely independent and unfettered, bound only by those reservations which the post-war world may determine to apply to all nations." They would not agree, he declared, to any proposals which would place "the Jewish Homeland" in a status of "constitutional inferiority" to other National Homelands. Recent proposals for the setting up of Palestine as a binational state were characterized by Judge Levinthal as but a continuation of the process of "whittling down on the pledges made to the Jewish people." Touching on the proposal for a Jewish army, Judge Levinthal declared that it was "painful" for him as "a sincere admirer of the British people to be compelled to record our keen disappointment. our deep chagrin at the humiliating manner in which the British government has rejected our persistent demand for the right to organize a distinct Jewish military force." The concession made by the British of joint Arab-Jewish battalions or regiments, ho described as "merely a palliative, stop-gap but a grudging admission of the validity of our demand." "We Zionists know that a homeland." said Judge Levinthal. "is not a homeland unless its men and women have the right to fight for it in their own name. The Jews of Palestine do not fear invasion or death, but they claim their right, the most fundamental right of human beings, go down if need be, fighting with flag in hand. But we are proud of the fact that in spite of the cloak of anonymity which has been thrown over the Palestinian Jewish soldiers and sailors, in spite of all the impediments placed in the path of self-defense, the leaders of our movement have permitted no obstacle to curtail Jewish Palestine's all-out war effort." Declaring that "America fighting to make the world a decent place in which to live interested in seeing that the Jewish People shall have the occasion and opportunity to develop their civilization in Palestine."

Jitj tery over the prospects of an j Allie% invasion, have intensified their persecution of Jews, ac1 cording to reports received here. The Free Belgian News Agency | reported this week that 600 Jews had been sent from their homes in Brussels to the French coast, where they were put to work as slave laborers on anti-invasion fortification. Reports from occupied Norway stated that Premier Quisling's anti-Jewish program had taken a violent turn and the Jewish population was said to be in a state of panic. All Jews under treatment in Norwegian sanitariums were ordered expelled from the institutions. Rabbi Max Shapiro By invitation of the executive director of the United Palestine Appeal, Henry Montor, Rabbi Max Shapiro will serve as official representative of the "Speakers' Bureau" in the southeastern area for the coming year for that organization. BEACH CHAPLAIN 1 cial floating of a Zionist $2,500,000 loan for the purchase of new land tracts in Palestine in order to meet the war-time needs of the population and the military forces in the Holy Land and to prepare the ground for largescale Jewish colonization. Speaking of the launching of a S2.500.000 loan for the acquistion of more land in Palestine, Senator Barkeley declared that this was "desirable not only for the immediate benefit of homeless Jews throughout Europe, but it seems to me essential in -the preparation of the case of Palestine and the Jews located there before the peace conference which must ensue following the victory which we anticipate on the part of the United Nations." Stressing the "full support of its membership in the total war effort," the ZOA convention pledged "To continue to increase even further the participation" in all branches of civil defense. Another resolution expressed "pride in the ever-increasing numbers of members of the Zionist Organization of America and the sons and daughters of members now serving in the armed forces of our country." It was resolved that the dues of all such members be waived for the duration of the war. The convention also went on record demanding the creation of a Jewish army in Palestine. Chaplain Camillus Angel, first Jewish Army chaplain to be stationed in this area, arrived here to assume his duties last week. During his rabbinical experiences, Rabbi Angel has served Jewish congregations in such widely scattered points as St. George's Settlement synagogue in London, Mt. Sinai temple in Texarkana, Texas, and St. Charles, La. When commissioned as regimental chaplain in July of this year, he was assigned to the 134th regiment of the 36th BEING MADE OF MAIL DELIVERIES Due to conditions brought about by the war, a reorganization is being made of the city delivery service in the Miami area. The reorganized service will provide: Two deliveries of mail a day in the down-town business area, where the volume of mail is heavy. One delivery of mail a day will be provided in all residential areas. Effective November 1, mail deliveries will be reduced from three to two trips a day in the down-town district. Carriers will leave on the first trip at approximately 8 a. m., and on the second trip at approximately 12:40 p. m. The one delivery in the residential areas will leave the post office at approximately 8 a. m.; mail on approximately 75 per cent of the routes will be delivered by or before 12 noon, the remaining 25 per cent of the routes will receive service in the afternoon. In order to utilize fully the manpower in the city delivery service under the onetrip-a-day arrangement, it is necessary to make a part of the deliveries in the afternoon. Business establishments located in residential territory will have but one delivery of mail each day. If it is necessary for a business establishment or an individual to receive mail more than one time a day. or at an hour infantry division.

These will be held exclusively for the service men. At a later date, the place of worship will be rotated so that all synagogues on the Beach are utilized. In this manner, a maximum number of men will be reached because of the convenience of each location for a particular group of men.

The archduke, who said he was confident about the equal status of Jews in post-war Europe, declared: "We Austrians believe that before God and the nation all men are equal.

If additional information regarding the reorganized city delivery service is needed, patrons should see the superintendent of the post office station or branch nearest them, or call at Room 103.

PAGE EIGHT vJewlstnoridfon FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23. 1942 FROM THE SWIVEL CHAIR William I. Boxerman The viiw exprtMed by Mr. BoxermAii arc his own and do not necenmrily represent the opinion of Th Jewish Florldlan. "To All the Gallant Men" There are many idealists for whom the world of reality does not exist. There are also a few men of vision who do not alone spin laudable theories but put them to the test in actual practice. To this latter rare company of mortals add the name of Willis Thornton. Who is Thornton and why do we single him out as for mention? Not so many moons ago he was just plain Mr. Willis Thornton, distinguished student of American history and chief editorial writer of Newspaper Enterprise Association. In his love for America and the democratic ideal he recently wrote a book called "Almanac for Americans" which he dedicated, in a spirit characteristic of his faith, "to all the gallant men and women whose past struggles helped to make American life good, and to all those today who seek to make it better." Crowded Story of America We chanced to read Mr. Thornton^ opus and were carried away by the patriotic fervor motivating the author. In reviewing it for the Miami Daily News we had occasion to say. in part: "Almanac for Americans" should have definite value in the public schools and for those civic \ groups, which, as a means of fos-1 tering morale in the war effort,' plan patriotic events We feel j that the writer has achieved his stated purpose, to give to many REAL ESTATE HOMES. MIAMI BEACH WAR BONDS AND REAL ESTATE ALONG WITH WAR BONDS REAL ESTATE IS THE SAFEST WARTIME INVESTMENT. ITS SAFE, profitable and patriotic to own your own home. President Roosevelt says: "Each home has given an American family a stake in its own country." TODAY I am selling more homes than ever before because war conditions and readjustments in Miami Beach compelled a number of owners to sell.

BRONSTON REALTOR % TRUSTWORTHY SERVICE' 605 Lincoln Road, Ph. 5-5868 the sense of fullness of the crowded story of America And we meant every word of it! This week's mail bag brings us a letter from Willis Thornton, now Corporal Thornton, stationed with the Army Air Force Technical Command at a midwestern training center. He didn't get there via the draft, either. But let part of his letter to us speak for itself. "Dream. Work, and Sweat" "My publisher has just sent on to me a clipping of your review of "Almanac for Americans" I'd like to express my appreciation of a very sympathetic review which divined very clearly just what I was driving at ... I thought it might amuse you to know that I enlisted last February, in the army, although I'm an old dodderer of 42 and a veteran of the other war ... I now am stationed at ---... So my aim. at least, has been to practice what I preach." No, Corporal Thornton, we were not '"amused" when we learned of your presence in the army We were deeply impressed with the depth of your convictions Only men with your spirit can win this war and, what is infinitely more important, the kind of peace that | must follow Only men like 1 you who dream and work and I sweat "to bring to still greater I fruition the bright promise that is America" arc worthy of its heritage. Mirror of the Past Particularly timely during this | anniversary year is "The Jews in Spain," a two-volume history by Dr. Abraham A. Neuman. president of Dropsie College Issued by the Jewish Publication of Philadelphia (S2.50 per volume; S5.00 per set) this gives a graphic picture of the social, political and cultural life of the Jews during the middle ages. Too many histories are written in a dry-as-dust textbook style Notable exceptions are such works as those of Dr. Salo Baron of Columbia University (whom we had as our instructor during graduate school days) and the present account by Dr. Neuman ... As we read, there passes in review a moving panorama of characters and movements in Jewish life of the period under consideration We view men of all classes, scholars and merchants, rabbis and financiers, the good and the bad, wise men and scoundrels, saints and sinners. The Cherem Because of our concern about the internal Jewish problems of today we found especially fascinating those portions of Dr. Neuman's work dealing with the kahal and the Jewish courts We have remarked before that there could be more housecleaning within the Jewish community if some such moral weapons as the cherem of the! middle ages could be resurrected MIAMI JEWISH BEACH CENTER (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6 Key Shop, 804 5th St. will be glad to explain the work to anyone calling upon him. Men and women of all ages arc eligible. Service Men Socials With the increased facilities which the new social hall affords the Center. Tuesday night socials and entertainments will be better than ever. Only men in uniform and young ladies willing to serve as dancing partners will be admitted. Refreshments are served through the courtesy of the Sisterhood. Bar Mitzva The bar mitzva of Eugene ChekanOW will be celebrated at jthe Center Synagogue on Saturiday, Oct. 24 at 9 a. m. We extend heartiest congratulations to the boy and his family. Once upon a time in Spain, as Dr. Neuman well points out. the cherem was a powerful means of whipping recalcitrant Jews, who had violated the good taste of the Jewish community into line Invoking the cherem meant virtual excommunication of the culprit by the community. Picture, if you can. the severest form of the cherem in which "no one was permitted to teach the culprit, nor was he permitted to engage in study and have the solace of books: he was not to be engaged for hire by a co-religionist, nor was any Jew permitted to work for him Only if he faced starvation was it permitted to help him with the bare necessities of life The instrument of excommunication served efficiently as a means of discipline of its flexibility ... It could be made severe or light, permanent or temporary." Yes, as Dr. Neuman shows, these internal controls were of inestimable value Those of us in Jewish communal life today can learn much about this and other means of community organization from reading "The Jews in Spain." ^JGUST BROS RV^ 4 Is the BEST' Al iVERTISKMENT KENHOLZ KOSHER MEAT PRODUCTS Incorporated 1343 Washington Avenue Miami Beach PHONE 5-39S2 Is Under the personal supervision of Rabbil Joseph E.

Dade County Draft Board No 4 wrote to Mr. Fennell, chairman of the Dade County Defense Council Morale Division that "our" send-off party was conducted in an exemplary manner. ... no man was missed, and there was no confusion. We noted that the reaction of the men was that of the spirit of good comradeship," wrote Mrs. Storm, chief clerk of the board. Mr. Fennell wrote to Louis Hemian and calling attention to the fact that our organization should be pleased with the letter sent by the draft board, a copy of which he included. When he tells us that this was the first letter of its kind received from the draft board, and aded to this is the fact that many organizations take turns in holding send-off parties, you know that Sholem Lodge B'nai B'rith excelled.

We've been associated with Sol, and hence shouldn't write about him. We know his virtues and his faults. He never harmed anyone in his life! And he enlisted in the Army. We know his parents, and his wife and child. We have been witness to the stricken, tight-lipped look on his father's faceand viewed the picture of bewilderment, that is his wife. His child is too young to understand. We have seen him set his house in order. We know his pride of ownership, but we have seen his worldly goods scattered, his office left a shellhe has scrapped everything, is leaving everybody near and dear to him. and is going to War. He doesn't know what lies ahead of him. We do know his path is beset with dangers and difficulties, and his life is endangered. But he goes with a smile and a word of good cheer for those he leaves behind. And the spittle has dried in our mouth and there is a lump in our throat. We tell you about Sol because his is the story of millionsbecause of all the Sols prepared to give everything.

The joint session of the two Zionist bodies went on record also as repudiating the program of the recently-established Ichud party, headed by Dr. Judah L. Magnes. president of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, which advocates a bi-national state in Palestine. The resolution, which had been adopted previously by both the ZOA and Hadassah at separate meetings, endorsed "the policy I of friendship and cooperation! with the Arabs of Palestine af- firmed by successive Zionist Congresses, and will seek to find every possible avenue to estab- lish good-will and active collabo- ration between the two peoples." . At the closing session of the i ZOA's 45th annual convention, attended by more than 1,000 delegates from all over the coun-' try. Judge Louis E.

The official citation describing Sgt. Levin's feat said that de- spite heavy anti-aircraft fire, "eight 500-pound bombs were dropped, bracketing the low of a 15,000-ton transport and in- flicting heavy damage." Both when he flew with Captain Kelly and in the Coral Sea battle, the Jewish ace was forced to bail out. Brooklyn friends and neigh- bors of the twice-decorated Army Air Force hero have announced that they will celebrate Sergeant Meyer Levin Day on November 1. A feature of the celebration will be the dedication of a plaque in front of the Levin home, 1504 East 33rd Street, Brooklyn.

Lehman and Dr. Louis Finkelstein, presi- dent of the Jewish Theological Seminary of America, to discuss the development of a consistent, integrated program for the semi- nary, in its efforts to strengthen the Jewish faith and democratic tradition. In his call to the conference, addressed to congregations affili- ated with the seminary and to prominent members of the Amer- ican Jewish community. Gover- nor Lehman indicated that the challenge laid down by the ene- mies of civilization to the Jewish faith is "obviously but one phase of an onslaught of all western religions." "The preser- vation of Judaism thus becomes, more clearly than ever," the gov- ernor asserts, "an essential ele- ment in the defense and advance- ment of civilization." The Seminary Conference will deal with the contribution which the Jews of America can make toward national solidarity and toward overcoming religious big- otry and other forms of group dissension, and will stress the need for raising Jewish moral and spiritual standards. It will especially point to the intimate relationship and spiritual alli- ance between democratic life and religious tradition. The conference will open with a plenary session and will fea- ture the convening of seminar groups to deal with the various departments and religious func- tions of the seminary in the light of new war-time conditions. It will mark the opening of Semi- nary Anniversary Week, comme- morating the fifty-fifth anniver- sary of the founding of the semi- nary and the fortieth anniversary of its reorganization under Solo- mon Schechter and Cyrus Adler. Other outstanding events to be held this week include a special Commencement of the Rabbin- ical School in order to enable the senior class to enter upon pasto- ral duties in preparation for the Chaplaincy; a Conference of Adult Jewish Education; and a Fifty-fifth Anniversary Dinner. Among the outstanding mem- bers of the Miami Jewish Com- munity who has associated him- self with the Honorable Herbert H Lehman and Dr. Louis Finkel- stein in calling the November 8 Conference is Stanley C.

Every member of the commit- tee is urged to be present and attend this important meeting. Stockholm (WNS) Nether- lands Jews are applying to be certified as lunatics and sent to insane asylums in order to avoid deportation to eastern Europe, the pro-German Stock- holm newspaper "Aftonbladct," reorted this week. The paper said pnysicians were complying with these requests on the ground that the Jews had become lunatics, "owing to the horrible cruelty" to which they have been subjected. The news- paper denounced the practice as an "insolent imposture," and said that "among those confined are well-known Haarlem people who formerly never showed any signs of mental deficiency." "If they were taken to Poland and not treated over-kindly mi- raculous recoveries would take place," the pro-German paper said. "Netherlands physicians who so kindly send them to asylums should be sent with them." "Aftonbladet" also recom- mended that "Jewish lunatics be segregated in separate institu- tions." IF.L ASKS POST- DESCRIBES NAZI KILLING OP JEWS New York (WNS) Leland Stowe, noted war correspondent, in a special dispatch to the New York Post and Chicago Daily News, reported this week his meeting with Potya Kaputov- ski, a 12-year-old soldier serving with the Red Army on the Rzhev front. The youthful soldier, whose father was killed while fighting with a Soviet guerrilla unit and whose mother, brothers and sis- ters were massacred by the Nazi invaders, described to the Ameri- can war reported the Nazi slaughter of Jews and guerrilla fighters: "I lived in a village near Ka- linin. The Germans came in Oc- tober. Right away they looked for all Jews and all relative:; of .partisans (guerrillas) in our vil- lage. My father and many other men had gone into the forest to be partisans. "The Germans came looking for people in every house. When they came to our house. I hid under the steps with my brother Shura. who is nine. The Fascists took my mother and my two younger brothers and my two sisters. They tied their hands with rope. Then they led them into the biggest house in our vil- lage. All the families of par- tisans and all the Jews they could find they put in the same house. "We were terribly frightened, but we could sec from under the steps. And then, when the Ger- mans had filled the big house with people, they set it on fire they burned it down." Petya. who later was adopted by a Red Army unit on the Rzhev sector, said that some of the children "couldn't walk and their mothers carried them when ithe Fascist soldiers pushed them into the house." TORONTO (WNS) The American Federation of Labor, holding its 47th annual conven- tion in this city, this week adopted a declaration condemn- ing Nazi crimes against the Jews in occupied Europe and demand- ing that the United States take steps to guarantee freedom and equality to Jews in post-war Europe. The declaration, read by Ma- thew Woll. vice-president of the American Federation of Labor, urged also that the United Na- tions guarantee to the Jews "their independence under the Balfour Declaration on the soil of Palestine." It expressed or- ganized labor's sympathy for the persecuted Jews in Europe and extended assurances of support. The adoption of the declara- tion followed a report by Julius Hochman, vice-president of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union, on Nazi crimes against the civilian populations of the occupied countries. The declaration said: "Traditionally, the American Federation of Labor has af- firmed its sympathy with one of the most unjustly and tragically persecuted of all minoritiesthe Jewish people. At present this unfortunate group of the human brotherhood is enduring not only the usual barbarous and de- testable excesses of the Nazis to- wards conquered peopleit is being subjected to a program of systematic extermination which (CONTINUED ON PAGE 3) NAZIS COULD HAVE TAKEN PALESTINE LAST SPRING New York (WNS).Palestine could have been invaded by the Nazis last May but the danger to the Holy Land. Syria. Cyprus and Turkey is past, at least for the remainder of 1942. according to a dispatch to the New York Times from Smyrna. Turkey. Palestine was said to be tem- porarily safe because of the withdrawal of Nazi and Italian troops from the Aegean Islands. "Allied military and naval circles say the enemy committed their gravest error since the Ger- man failure to attempt an inva- sion of Britain following the col- lapse of France in the summer Of 1940 when the Germans and Italians failed last May to at- tack the weak defenses of Sy- ria at d Palestine simultaneously with their Libyan offensive." the N York Times report said. "Only the Turks were ready last May and an operation aimed across Syria at Iraq's oil and into Palestine to sever Allied com- munications was feasible, accord- ing to leading foreign military experts. Fewer than 20 divisions would have sufficed to give the Germans a critical, perhaps fatal, foothold in Syria and Palestine and perhaps even in Cypress whose defenses early last spring were something that Allied mili- tary air experts would rather not talk about."

When the freight cars reached Bessarabia and the doors opened, the report continued, many ot the Jews were found dead. Most of the others were ill.

"We again reiterate and em- phasize our profound sympathy with the Jewish people. We as- sure them of our warm support in their just claims to that moral and practical recognition which is due to any histronic ethnic and cultural group. "We deplore the incredible brutality which activates the be- havior of their Nazi oppressors. We declare our complete sym- pathy with the national aspira- tions of the Jewish people to- wards collective security at the end of the present war. Since a start towards such security was made in the establishment of the national homeland in Palestine for the Jewish people, we re- affirm our belief that the United Nations owe to them the con- tinuance and the maintenance of this homeland as a relief from their dreadful and inhuman per- secutions, as a guarantee of their cultural unity and continuity, as an instrument for their legal and international standing in the court of nations, and as a restitu- tion for their national dignity, honor and creative energies. "In the post-war period of world reorganization that lies ahead, when the United Nations come to the problems of restor- ing the integrity of nations and groups now suffering under the lash of vile tyranny, we urge that they remember also the claims and sufferings of the Jewish people, and take steps to guar- antee freedom and equality to them in their adopted countries, a well as their independence, under the Balfour declaration, on the soil of Palestine."

BIRON. THE B'NAI B'RITH The B'nai B'rith entered the hundredth year of its existence this past week. It is an occasion that well deserves commendation and celebration but President Monsky has in- dicated that the festivities which would or- dinarily attend such an event will be post- poned to such a time when the country is restored to peace. In 1841, when the oldest of Jewish orders was established, the Jewish population of the United States was about one-fifth or one-sixth of the present Jewish population of Palestine. The whole population of the United States, in fact, was not more than four or five times that of the present Jewish population of the United States. Railroad building on a miniature scale had just begun. There was no tele- graph, no electricity. Industry as a whole was just beginning as far as the United States was concerned. "Old Hickory" had but re- cently left the White House. The country had but a short time previouslyin 1837 undergone the depression of Van Buren's ad- ministrationand was now beginning to get back into economic shape. The Mexican and Civil Wars had not yet been fought. In the space of this hundred years, not a long time when we consider that individuals who at- tain the age of one hundred years are to be found here and there, and yet in a society, a century brings an enormous difference. It is a mistake to think that all the revolutions come by arms and blood. Time itself brings about revolutions. It is a tribute to the original soundness of the Order B'nai B'rith that while numerous other orders have risen from time to time, and passed away, the B'nai B'rith has not only grown old with dignity but paradoxically we may say, it has grown younger with the years, if vigor and vitality are the criterions. RELIGION AND DEMOCRACY "Religion, whether it be Protestant, Catholic or Jewish, holds that the individual is funda- mentally important because he is the child of God. It maintains that this status gives him inherent rights which no man-made gov- ernment can deny. "There is great danger that a nation which fails to maintain an active religion will have egually little interest in protecting that in- dividuality of its citizens which is so vital an attribute of democracy. "Without religious idealism to give it char- acter in times of stress, a nation will tend al- most inevitably to fall under the sway of totali- tarianism as the easiest method of meeting emergencies." Governor Lehman. ALL-OUT DEVOTION ". All of the ordinary ambitions and occupations of man's normal life pass into the background, and the call is urgent for us to devote ourselves primarilyand well-nigh exclusivelyto bringing this barborous con- flict to an end, before it shall have wholly destroyed or imprisoned the fundamental prin- ciples upon which our free and liberal civiliza- tion rests and must rest. "Great as is the responsibility to be borne by the older generation, the responsibility which faces the youth of today is greater still. They, and not their elders, will have to wrestle with the grave problems of a world which must be reconstructed so as to strengthen and protect the underlying principles of freedom and liberal thought. It is the fate of these which is now hanging in the balance. First must come victory and then a world so or- ganized and so strengthened as not only to establish peace, but to protect permanent peace." Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. AMERICAN LABOR The recentiy-concluded convention of the American Federation of Labor, which in- cludes in its membership several million American workers, called upon the United Nations to take adeguate steps to guarantee to the Jews freedom and eguality in post-war '< TtrvilCiVV REPORT Europe. The hundreds of union delegates, PALESTINE ANGLE Behind David Ben Gurion's threat to guit his party ik Zionist Laborite group, is his disappointment in his cof leagues, who have shown themselves reluctant to follow him in his political feud against Dr. Chaim Weizmann u)T liam B. Ziff, author of "The Coming Battle of Germany," wa the off-the-record speaker at a dinner given last week at Ne York's Waldorf-Astoria by the Committee for a Jewish Army Yes, that was charming Mrs. Julian Sieroty of Beverly Hills, California, listening so intently to the stirrin address She stands in the vanguard of the fighters fa the Jewish Army idea And that distinguished gentleman sitting next to dinner chairman Louis Nizer was the Honor- able Dave Hennen Morris, former American ambassador to Belgium. gathered from all parts of the country, de- manded also that the United Nations extend to the Jews assurances of "their independence under the Balfour Declaration on the soil of Palestine." At a time when half the world is plunged in darkness and misery, this di- rective from organized American labor is a source of courage and inspiration. The AFL's uneguivocal expression of sym- pathy and support for the Jewish people is in the finest traditions of American labor. It will give renewed courage and strength to the hundreds of thousands of down-trodden Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe who now know that they have gained another powerful ally. The half million Jews standing guard in Palestine will be immeasurably heartened by the an- nouncement that American labor is in com- plete agreement with their hopes and aspi- rations. It has been said that weapons alone will not win this war; that ideals and principles are more potent than weapons. The speeches of Hitler & Co. will not win this war. But the sense of decency and justice of the free people, of which the AFL is a notable example, will inevitably balance the scales for an Allied victory. UNITY "We must not only seek unity within our national borders, but we must safeguard that unity with the right motives. Through fear and hatred of a foreign foe we may secure a temporary amity between management and labor, between farm bloc and city consumer, between negro and white, between Jew and Gentile, between Romanist and Protestant. "But fear is a stimulant which eventually weakens, and hatred can easily become a boomerang. If all that unites us now as Ameri- cans is the threat of foreign danger, then be- ware of what will happen when the war is over. Our fears and hatreds may turn in on ourselves and we- shall have a revival of the Ku Klux Klanism which disgraced our country after the last war." Rev. Dr. Ralph W. Sockman. FRENCH CHURCH PROTESTS VICHY POLICY "Without ignoring or misunderstanding the extreme complexity of the situation wherein the authorities find themselves, the Reformed Church of France cannot, however, further remain silent before the sufferings of thou- sands of human beings who have received asylum on our soil. "The Christian Church would have lost its soul and reason for existence if it did not maintain that divine law is above all human contingencies. And that divine law does not permit that families created by God shall be broken up, children separated from their mothers, the right of asylum and its compas- sion be unrecognized, the respect of the human person transgressed and beings without de- fense delivered to tragic fates. "The church demands of the faithful to bend with the compassion of the good before the distress of those who suffer and to intercede without pause before God, who alone can de- liver us from all ills." National Council of the Reformed Church of France. Get in the scrap by giving your scrap, and by buying War Savings Stamps and Bonds regularly. Note to those who still grouse about the hospitality America is showing to refugees from Hitlerism: Sergeant Julius Schellenberg of Brooklyn, who is one of the little group of American heroes awarded the Purple Heart decora- tion for bravery in the Pacific war theatre, came to this coun- try as a refugee only a few years ago There are any num- ber of little eating places in Manhattan run by refugees from Nazi Germany and Austria, but we know of only one actual night club that belongs to a refugee, and he came here to escape the Nazi in France He's Arthur Lesser, who had had a night club in Paris, and, when the Gestapo marched in, came over here to open "La Vie Parisienne" on East 52nd Street ... All the entertainers in the club are, appropriately enough, from France to Korea.

The delegates also voted to send $5,000 as a gift to Miss Henrietta Sz'old, 82-year-old founder of Hadassah, now in Jerusalem, "to be used for any project which she wishes to further there." The joint closing session of the two organizations was addressed by Mayor La Guardia, Mrs. Pool, Louis Lipsky. former president of the ZOA, and Dr. Alexander Loudon.

Mr. Lipsky assailed the failure of Britain to fulfill its declara- tions for the establishment of a Jewish national home in Pairs- tine. "England," he said, "has used its authority to liquidate its covenant and its promise. It has rejected all appeals from its decision. It has deprived mem. bers of the League of Nations of the right to intervene in an issue in which they were parties. It has acted as sole judge in a mat- ter of self-interest." A call for a "bold and daring \| program" on the part of Ameri- can Zionists that would evisage the settlement in Palestine upon the conclusion of the war. of be- tween two and three million Jews, coupled with the demand for the establishment of Pales- tine as "an independent and un- fettered Jewish Commonwealth" was the major note in the key- note address of Judge Louis E. Levinthal, president of the ZOA. In his presidential address. I Judge Levinthal declared that "we must think and speak in \| terms of a Palestine in which' full control and supervision of imagination will be in the hands of the Jews and of the Jews alone, for they have shown in Palestine their capacity for self- government. Zionists, he added, demanded the establishment of Palestine as a Jewish Common- wealth, entirely independent and unfettered, bound only by those reservations which the post-war world may determine to apply to all nations." They would not agree, he declared, to any pro- posals which would place "the Jewish Homeland" in a status of "constitutional inferiority" to other National Homelands. Recent proposals for the set- ting up of Palestine as a bi- national state were characterized by Judge Levinthal as but a con- tinuation of the process of "whit- tling down on the pledges made to the Jewish people." Touching on the proposal for a Jewish army, Judge Levinthal declared that it was "painful" for him as "a sincere admirer of the British people to be com- pelled to record our keen disap- pointment. our deep chagrin at the humiliating manner in which the British government has re- jected our persistent demand for the right to organize a distinct Jewish military force." The con- cession made by the British of joint Arab-Jewish battalions or regiments, ho described as "mere- ly a palliative, stop-gap but a grudging admission of the vali- dity of our demand." "We Zionists know that a homeland." said Judge Levin- thal. "is not a homeland unless its men and women have the right to fight for it in their own name. The Jews of Palestine do not fear invasion or death, but they claim their right, the most fundamental right of human be- ings, go down if need be, fight- ing with flag in hand. But we are proud of the fact that in spite of the cloak of anonymity which has been thrown over the Palestinian Jewish soldiers and sailors, in spite of all the impe- diments placed in the path of self-defense, the leaders of our movement have permitted no ob- stacle to curtail Jewish Pales- tine's all-out war effort."

The Free Belgian News Agency \| reported this week that 600 Jews had been sent from their homes in Brussels to the French coast, where they were put to work as slave laborers on anti-invasion fortification. Reports from occupied Norway stated that Premier Quisling's anti-Jewish program had taken a violent turn and the Jewish population was said to be in a state of panic. All Jews under treatment in Norwegian sani- tariums were ordered expelled from the institutions.

BEACH CHAPLAIN 1 cial floating of a Zionist $2,500,- 000 loan for the purchase of new land tracts in Palestine in order to meet the war-time needs of the population and the military forces in the Holy Land and to prepare the ground for large- scale Jewish colonization. Speaking of the launching of a S2.500.000 loan for the acquis- tion of more land in Palestine, Senator Barkeley declared that this was "desirable not only for the immediate benefit of home- less Jews throughout Europe, but it seems to me essential in -the preparation of the case of Pales- tine and the Jews located there before the peace conference which must ensue following the victory which we anticipate on the part of the United Nations." Stressing the "full support of its membership in the total war effort," the ZOA convention pledged "To continue to increase even further the participation" in all branches of civil defense. Another resolution expressed "pride in the ever-increasing numbers of members of the Zionist Organization of America and the sons and daughters of members now serving in the armed forces of our country." It was resolved that the dues of all such members be waived for the duration of the war. The convention also went on record demanding the creation of a Jewish army in Palestine. Chaplain Camillus Angel, first Jewish Army chaplain to be sta- tioned in this area, arrived here to assume his duties last week. During his rabbinical experi- ences, Rabbi Angel has served Jewish congregations in such widely scattered points as St. George's Settlement synagogue in London, Mt. Sinai temple in Texarkana, Texas, and St. Charles, La. When commissioned as regimental chaplain in July of this year, he was assigned to the 134th regiment of the 36th BEING MADE OF MAIL DELIVERIES Due to conditions brought about by the war, a reorganiza- tion is being made of the city delivery service in the Miami area. The reorganized service will provide: Two deliveries of mail a day in the down-town business area, where the volume of mail is heavy. One delivery of mail a day will be provided in all residential areas. Effective November 1, mail deliveries will be reduced from three to two trips a day in the down-town district. Carriers will leave on the first trip at ap- proximately 8 a. m., and on the second trip at approximately 12:40 p. m. The one delivery in the resi- dential areas will leave the post office at approximately 8 a. m.; mail on approximately 75 per cent of the routes will be de- livered by or before 12 noon, the remaining 25 per cent of the routes will receive service in the afternoon. In order to utilize fully the manpower in the city delivery service under the one- trip-a-day arrangement, it is necessary to make a part of the deliveries in the afternoon. Business establishments located in residential territory will have but one delivery of mail each day. If it is necessary for a busi- ness establishment or an indi- vidual to receive mail more than one time a day. or at an hour infantry division.

These will be held exclusively for the serv- ice men. At a later date, the place of worship will be rotated so that all synagogues on the Beach are utilized.

"To All the Gallant Men" There are many idealists for whom the world of reality does not exist. There are also a few men of vision who do not alone spin laudable theories but put them to the test in actual prac- tice. To this latter rare company of mortals add the name of Willis Thornton. Who is Thornton and why do we single him out as for mention? Not so many moons ago he was just plain Mr. Willis Thornton, distinguished student of American history and chief editorial writer of Newspaper Enterprise Asso- ciation. In his love for America and the democratic ideal he re- cently wrote a book called "Al- manac for Americans" which he dedicated, in a spirit characteristic of his faith, "to all the gallant men and women whose past struggles helped to make Ameri- can life good, and to all those today who seek to make it bet- ter." Crowded Story of America We chanced to read Mr. Thorn- ton^ opus and were carried away by the patriotic fervor mo- tivating the author. In review- ing it for the Miami Daily News we had occasion to say. in part: "Almanac for Americans" should have definite value in the pub- lic schools and for those civic \ groups, which, as a means of fos-1 tering morale in the war effort,' plan patriotic events We feel j that the writer has achieved his , stated purpose, to give to many , REAL ESTATE HOMES.

This week's mail bag brings us a letter from Willis Thornton, now Corporal Thornton, stationed with the Army Air Force Tech- nical Command at a midwestern training center. He didn't get there via the draft, either. But let part of his letter to us speak for itself. "Dream. Work, and Sweat" "My publisher has just sent on to me a clipping of your review of "Almanac for Americans" . I'd like to express my apprecia- tion of a very sympathetic re- view which divined very clearly just what I was driving at ... I thought it might amuse you to know that I enlisted last Febru- ary, in the army, although I'm an old dodderer of 42 and a vet- eran of the other war ... I now am stationed at ---... So my aim. at least, has been to prac- tice what I preach." No, Corporal Thornton, we were not '"amused" when we learned of your presence in the army We were deeply im- pressed with the depth of your convictions Only men with your spirit can win this war . and, what is infinitely more im- portant, the kind of peace that \| must follow Only men like 1 you who dream and work and I sweat "to bring to still greater I fruition the bright promise that ' is America" arc worthy of its heritage. Mirror of the Past Particularly timely during this \| anniversary year is "The Jews in Spain," a two-volume history by Dr. Abraham A. Neuman. presi- dent of Dropsie College Is- sued by the Jewish Publication of Philadelphia (S2.50 per vol- ume; S5.00 per set) this gives a graphic picture of the social, po- litical and cultural life of the Jews during the middle ages. Too many histories are written in a dry-as-dust textbook style . Notable exceptions are such works as those of Dr. Salo Baron of Columbia University (whom we had as our instructor during graduate school days) and the present account by Dr. Neuman ... As we read, there passes in review a moving panorama of characters and movements in Jewish life of the period under consideration We view men of all classes, scholars and mer- chants, rabbis and financiers, the good and the bad, wise men and scoundrels, saints and sinners. The Cherem Because of our concern about the internal Jewish problems of today we found especially fasci- nating those portions of Dr. Neuman's work dealing with the kahal and the Jewish courts . We have remarked before that there could be more house- cleaning within the Jewish com- munity if some such moral weapons as the cherem of the! middle ages could be resurrected MIAMI JEWISH BEACH CENTER (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6 Key Shop, 804 5th St. will be glad to explain the work to any- one calling upon him.

We ex- tend heartiest congratulations to the boy and his family. . Once upon a time in Spain, as Dr. Neuman well points out. the cherem was a powerful means of whipping recalcitrant Jews, who had violated the good taste of the Jewish community into line Invoking the che- rem meant virtual excommuni- cation of the culprit by the com- munity. Picture, if you can. the se- verest form of the cherem in which "no one was permitted to teach the culprit, nor was he permitted to engage in study and have the solace of books: he was not to be engaged for hire by a co-religionist, nor was any Jew permitted to work for him . Only if he faced starvation was it permitted to help him with the bare necessities of life . The instrument of excommuni- cation served efficiently as a means of discipline of its flexi- bility ... It could be made se- vere or light, permanent or tem- porary." Yes, as Dr. Neuman shows, these internal controls were of inestimable value Those of us in Jewish communal life to- day can learn much about this and other means of community organization from reading "The Jews in Spain." ^jgUST BROS rv^4 Is the BEST' Al iVERTISKMENT KENHOLZ KOSHER MEAT PRODUCTS Incorporated 1343 Washington Avenue Miami Beach PHONE 5-39S2 Is Under the personal supervision of Rabbil Joseph E.

Send-Off Party. This is a head- ing, but it doesn't tell the whole story. Dade County Draft Board No 4 wrote to Mr. Fennell, chair- man of the Dade County Defense Council Morale Division that "our" send-off party was con- ducted in an exemplary manner. " ... no man was missed, and there was no confusion. We not- ed that the reaction of the men was that of the spirit of good comradeship," wrote Mrs. Storm, chief clerk of the board. Mr. Fennell wrote to Louis Hemian and calling attention to the fact that our organization should be pleased with the letter sent by the draft board, a copy of which he included. When he tells us that this was the first letter of its kind received from the draft board, and aded to this is the fact that many organi- zations take turns in holding send-off parties, you know that Sholem Lodge B'nai B'rith ex- celled.

We've been associated with Sol, and hence shouldn't write about him. We know his virtues and his faults. He never harmed anyone in his life! And he en- listed in the Army. We know his parents, and his wife and child. We have been witness to the stricken, tight-lipped look on his father's faceand viewed the picture of bewilderment, that is his wife. His child is too young to understand. We have seen him set his house in order. We know his pride of ownership, but we have seen his worldly goods scattered, his of- fice left a shellhe has scrapped everything, is leaving everybody near and dear to him. and is go- ing to War. He doesn't know what lies ahead of him. We do know his path is beset with dang- ers and difficulties, and his life is endangered. But he goes with a smile and a word of good cheer for those he leaves behind. And the spittle has dried in our mouth and there is a lump in our throat. We tell you about Sol because his is the story of millionsbe- cause of all the Sols prepared to give everything. We would like to compare the sacrifices the civilians at home! are asked to make with those the Sols of America have made, and are prepared to make. But com- parisons are odious!
