tendant upon the worldwide economic depression,
with the result that for the first time in the history
of the American Jewish community a tragically impover-

in the United States, receives the reply from many quar-

distress rules in the ranks of a people that was not so long
ago the most prosperous element in Israel. Because
American Jews have thus akiffered from the realty and
stock crashes, the challenge that will come to them during
the new year will be the test whether our community, even
under present distressing economic conditions, dare deny
its responsibilities to its kith and kin who are threatened
by pogroms and stanation.
