That the Jews of the United
States spend over $6,000,000 an-
nually for Jewish education was
one of th'e statements made by
Albert B. Schoolman, president of
the National Council for Jewish
Education at a joint meeting of
the Council with the National Con-
ference of Jewish Social Service,
held in Philadelphia in May, 1932.
After calling attention to the
progress that had been made dur-
ing the past twenty years, by •
handful of Jewish educators in
organizing a modern system of,
Jewish education, Mr. Schoolman
gave credit to the federations and
social workers for helping to pro-
vide a great part of the support
for this system and pleaded for
the continuance of this support.
Discussing the relationship of the
organized community to Jewish
education, at the same meeting,

determined to expand the func-
tions of an existing employment
bureau for Jews so as to include
an effort to deal with the problem
of anti-Jewish discrimination.
In December, an employment
bureau for this specific purpose
was set up in Los Angeles by the
B'nai B'rith Lodge and the Jew-
ish Social Service Bureau. In
April, 1932, a Committee on Un-
just Discrimination Against Jews
seeking Employment was estab-
lished in Chicago. The program
of this committee is interesting
because it reflects the most salient
elements which underlie efforts to
cope with the employment discrini-
Motion evil. The committee is
headed by Sigmund Livingston,
who is the chairman, and has set
itself a five-fold task, namely, (1)
to make a survey of eases of dis-
crimination; (2) to co-operets
with existing employment agen-
cies in discouraging such discrim-
ination; (3) to educate offending
employers as to the unfairness of
the practice, with a view to per-
suading them to deposit; (4) to
discourage individual volunteers
who may wish to attempt cor-
rective measures; and (5) to pre-
vent and discourage all false ru-
mors of unjust discrimination
against any employer.
The vexatious question of the
limitation of the enrollment of
Jews in medical schools was also
widely discussed during the year.
That there is a fundamental dif-
ference of approach toward this
problem among American Jews
was evidenced by the fact that,
at a convention of the American
Jewish Congress in October, 1931,
that organization reached the con-
clusion that solution of this prob-
lem lies in the establishment of a
medical school primarily for Jew-
ish students, whereas at the an-
nual meeting of the American
Jewish Committee, held in Decem-
ber, the executive committee of
that body expressed the opinion
that in view of the overcrowded
condition of the medical profession
the solution lies rather in better
vocational guidance for Jewish
young men and women wishing to
embark on a professional career.
Both of these attitudes found
their adherents in the community.
At the convention of the National
Conference of Jewish Social Ser-
vice in May, 1932, there was a
discussion of the question which
was led by Dr. Israel Strauss of
New York City, who upheld the
establishment of a medical school
for Jews, and by James Marshall
of New York City, a member of
the executive committee of the
American Jewish Committee, who
opposed it.
In February, great excitement
was caused in Jewish circles by
the publication, in the Army and
Navy Register, an official weekly
publication, of an anonymous ar-
ticle on the,subject of armament
limitation, in the course of which
the patriotism of Jews was im-
pugned in what the Jewish press
regarded as a highly scurrilous
manner, and they were changed
with unwillingness to do military
service, because "the pay is poor,
there is no profit in it, and worse,
they might be called upon to die
for the country of their adoption."
This part of the article was in-
spired by another entitled "The
Student Looks at Militarism," by
Dr. Felix S. Cohen, published in
a periodical issued by the League
for Industrial Democracy. Follow-
ing protests against and refutation
of the charges by several Jewish
organizations and some individu-
als, the editors of the Army and

the geld of Jewish culture are
noteworthy. In August, 1931,
the Jewish Braille Institute of
America began the publication
of the Jewish Braille Review,
a monthly magazine intended
for free distribution among
Jewish blind in English-speaking
countries. In November, the
Current Jewish Record, ■ new
monthly magazine, containing
articles and other features
culled from periodicals of all
kinds, came into existence in
New York City. This was fol.
lowed in December by a new
weekly called Opinion. In Jan-
uary, the American Hebrew ac-
quired t h e Jewish Tribune
which had suspended publication
in April, 1931. The Jewish
Herald, • new monthly publica-
tion, made its appearance in
Pittsburgh in April, 1932. Un-
see Folk, a new Yiddish weekly,
made its appearance in New
York City in September, 1931.
The fiftieth anniversary of the
beginning of mass Jewish Immi-
gration from Eastern Europe
and of the establishment of the
Yiddish press in America was
celebrated in April, 1932, at a
Among significant Jewish books ,
published during the year were
"Introduction to the Talmud and
Midrash," a translation by the late
Prof. Max L. Margolis, of the,'
standard work of Herman L.
Struck, the famous Getinan He- I
braist• this was brought out by
the Jewish Publication Society of
America, which issued also "Leg-
ends of Palestine," a translation,
with additions and rearrange-
ments, of the Ilebrew work "Aga-
dat Erez Yisrael" by ''lee Vilney,
which appeared in London in
1929. In November, 1931, Dr.
Cyrus Adler, president of the
Dropsie College for llebrew and
Cognate Learning, announced the
publication of the first part of
"The Book of Joshua in Greek,"
by Prof. Max L. Margolis, who had
spent 20 years on the work, Find-
ing it impossible to secure an ac-
curate text, Dr. Margolis had writ-
ten one himself, a facsimile of it
appearing in the book. The book
was issued under the auspices of
the Alexander Kohut Memorial
Foundation.
Other significant publications
were: As a Jew Sees Jesus" by
Rabbi Ernest A. Trattner; "The
Trial of Jesus of Nazareth" by
Dr. Max Raclin, professor of law
at the University of California;
"Josephus on Jesus," by Dr. Solo-
mon Zeitlin, professor in charge

mother of the second half of the
seventeenth century.

several years, and the Emanu-El
