Have You Made Your Contribution?

Have you made your contribution to the
Emergency' Allied Jewish Campaign?
It is hardly to the credit of the commun-
ity that it should be necessary tit coax
75,000 Jews into giving $98,500 for the
support of the most important local causes.
During the coming few days, it is im-
perative that the loyal workers enrolled in
the campaign should make the desired ef-
fort to canvass all who arc able to give,
and that the full quota should be raised
in the period assigned for the drive.

Germany Rebuked.

Germany's reactionary and anti - Semitic
government stands shamed before the
tribunal of the nations of the world.
The discussion on the question of the
minority rights of Jews in Upper Silesia,
before the Council of the League of Na-

tions, was tantamount to a most serious

reprimand.

Germany stands condemned by enlight-
ened public opinion. The action of the
League of Nations in great measure serves
to assuage some of the sorrows which were
occasioned by the anti-Semitic outrages in
Germany.

It is a source of great satisfaction to
know that the more enlightened peoples
stand ready to condemn medieval bigotry.

The Next Zionist Convention.

It may safely be said that the next an-
nual convention of the Zionist Organiza-
tion of America, to be held in Chicago be-
ginning on July 1, is to be the most import-
ant conclave in the history of the Zionist
movement in this country.

Faced by problems which have never
before been equalled in seriousness, Pales-
tine today looms as the only possible solu-
tion io lhe problem of the Jew's homeless-
less. By virtue of being the only land
which is able to absorb many thousands of
refugees from Germany, Palestine assumes
position of priority in Jewish life.



Palestine's powerful position in Jewish
ife has now placed the Zionist movement
outside the realm of debates. The healthy
)osition of the Jewish community in the
and, and the vast opportunities for future
!xpansions, are now admitted facts.

For
proof it is sufficient to quote the follow-
eg leading note in a recent issue of Near
:;ast and India, under the heading "A

"rosperous Palestine:"

In the never-ending race between politics
and prosperity in Palestine there can be no

RS to the substantial lead established by
the latter at the present stage of the contest.
Practically the only indication of the existence
of the former is afforded by the half-hearted
attempt of the Arab executive to boycott Lord
Allenby on his arrival to perform the opening
ceremony in connection with the new Y. M.
C. A. building in Jerusalem, which was, no
doubt, intended to serve as a reminder that
the major scheme of a general boycott, cont.
bined with a policy of non-co-operation with
the government, is under consideration for
the next two or three months. In the mean-
time the country continues to flourish; the
Palestine exchequer has a substantial balance,
which must now be in the neighborhood of a
million pounds sterling, in spite of the remis-
sion of taxes for the agricultural population;
the banks hate on deposit more money than
they can conveniently make use of. and there
would seem to be no section of the community
laboring under the serious economic disabilities
that are to be met with in other parts of the
world. Little wonder that. across the Jordan.
where scarcity prevails, envious eyes are being
turned towards Palestine and efforts are being
made to tap for the neighboring Arab country
the same sources of wealth as have built up
Palestine's prosperity. The first attempt to
introduce Jewish capital and Jewish settlers
into Trans-Jordan has been checkmated. The
challenge to the Arab leaders in Palestine was
AO direct that they could hardly fail to mobilize
all the forces at their command with a view
to meeting it. Their success, however, has net
disheartened the Arab chiefs in Trans-Jordan.
and there was recently a meeting between them
. and the Jewish leaders in Palestine to establish
contact and co-operation. The real interest
of the two countries, however. will not be
served by promoting rivalry between two or
more sections of the Arab population. What
is needed is that the Arab leaders -1-n Palestine
should be helped to take a broader outlook, so
that in time they may come to realize that.

Arab cultivators were like stones In the same
.wall — if one slip!, the wall collapses.

To guarantee the continuation of this
appy condition in Palestine, and to make
a possible for any thousands of Jewish

faees from Germany to settle in the
,ewish National Home, will be the respon-
ibifity of the Chicago convention. The
mportance that is therefore given to the

■11

erations will unquestionably judge us by
the manner in which our people today set
out to solve the trying problem created by
the horrible events of the past few weeks.
If we fail to make use of the opportunity
now presented to Jewry to rebuild in Pal-
estine a permanent home and refuge for
Israel, the national effort may be postponed
for a long time to come.

The Zionist convention
be provided
with an unprecedented attraction by the
• staging of "A Romance of a People" on
' the occasion of Jewish Day at the Century
, of Progress. Advance reports indicate
that this will be an unusual spectacle, and

that this method of participation in the

World Fair will serve to enhance .lewish

creative ability. The event deserves the
toliiiall•e of many thousands from all
cater I he r Oil ry, and it is a source of satis-
faction to know that large numbers of
Detroiters will attend this celebration.

Protocols Revived in Congress.
Itepro,,eotative Louis T. Ali:Fadden of

l'ennsc Ivania has chosen to revive the in-

famous lie of Jewish world domination its

charged in the Protocols of the Elders of
Zion, and to quote from them at length on
the floor of the United States HMIs(' of

Representatives, in spite of t he fact that
these were prov en to be forgeries.
Th, ghost of Henry F'ord's Dearborn
Independent was given a nett' lease of life
when Congressman JcFadden referred to
the Detroiter's famous organ of anti-Semit-
ism and amide these charges:

alr, Chairman, have not most of these pre-
dictions come to pass? Is it not true that, in
the United State• today, the "gentiles" have
the slips of papers while the Jews have the
gold end lawful money? And is not this
repudiation bill a hill specifically designed and
written by the Jewish international money
changers themselves in order to perpetuate
their power? What else do you make of it,
Mr. Chairman? Thies it not cancel the war
debts? Does it not defraud the holders Of
Liberty bonds and every other obligation call-
ing for the payment of money? floes it not
defined the veterans Of the World War and
take the value out of their adjusted-compensa-
tion certificates?

So, there you have it! 'Mr. McFadden
has made it a matter of record in the Con-
gressional Record of the Congress of the
United States that the Jews are responsible
for all of the world's troubles—and that
the prediction of the Protocols of the Elders
of Zion have come true! This gentleman
from Pennsylvania, Who boasted that the
Republican, Democratic and Prohibition
parties of his district all nominated him
for the high office he now holds, is not only
shaming the trust placed in him by accus-
ing an entire people of a stupid lie, but is
doing it in spite of the presentation of
proof that the Protocols were forgeries.

Congressman Emanuel Celler and Ham-
ilton Fish briefly replied to the McFadden

charges, the former calling upon the Penn-
sylvanian voluntarily to withdraw his
charges, but it was not until two days later
that the matter teas made an issue on the
floor of the House of Representatives when
Representative Joseph W. Byres Of Ten-
nessee, Democratic floor leader, expressed
the hope that Mr. McFadden would with-
dra• his remarks. Mr. Byrns' statement
followed his reading into the Record of the
following telegram from Dr. Cyrus Adler:

Philadelphia,

Pa., May :lo, I933,
Speaker, House of Representatives,
Washington, D. C.:
In view of the statement made in the House
of Representatives on May 29 by Mr. 'Mc-
Fadden, in which he referred to the "so-called
'protocols of Zinn' 1 deem it my duty to call
attention to the fact that these "protocols" are
a forgery, as WaS proved by the Constantinople
correspondent of the London Times years ago.
Mr. McFadden also referred in connection with
the so-called "protocols" to the Dearborn Inde-
pendent. Mr. Ilenry Ford, the then proprietor
of the Dearborn Independent, stated in a
written communication. dated June 30, 1927,
"I confess that I am deeply mortified that this
journal, which is intended to be constructive
and not destructive, has been made the medium
for resurrecting exploded fictions and for giv-
ing accuracy to the so-called 'protocols' of the
wise men of Zion, which have been demon-
strated. as I learn, to he gros s forgery." In
view II( the fact that the press reports that
Mr. NM:widen quoted at some length from
the protocols, I trust that the Hou s e of Repre-
sentatives will he willing to place this message
in the Congressional Record, so that the report
of its proceedings shall not be disfigured by
extracts from a forged document.
Cyrus Adler,
President American Jewish Committee.

It is worth making note also of this fact:
Representative Bertrand II. Snell of New
York. minority floor leader, prevented ac-
tion on a motion by Representative John J.
Boylan, aLo of New York, to expunge from
the Record the damaging reference. The
matter is not yet killed, and will undoubt-
edly be revived . again in Congress. But
it is sad to record that Representative Mc-
Fadden. who not so long ago raised the
cry against the so-called Jewish interna-
tional bankers, should have seen fit again
to raise this stupid charge.

The whole issue goes to prove just one
thing:

The damage done by Mr. Ford's Dear-
born Independent and by the Protocols of
the Elders of Zion has not been wiped out
with the automobile manufacturer's apol-
ogy. The Protocols are playing a great
part in the spread of anti-Semitism in Ger-
many, they are being circulated in many
countries throughout the world and they
continue to incite the ignorant among the
peoples against the Jews.
Sadly enough. we know where to place
the blame. And what is much more regret-
table, we are witnesses to the repetition of
the lies contained in the Protocols on the
floor of one of the most enlightened parlia-
ments in the world.

TOMBSTONES SPEAK

This community, this com-
munion is felt most powerfully
in small towns. In my own little
North German native town, the
Jewish cemetery lies outside the
tovvn, on the banks of a big lake.
The gravestones record the his-
tory of my forefathers for the
Last two centuries, and thus, as
I Intik at them, I see myself as
a link in If chain of generations
which binds me intimately to
this town in which I have not
lived since my childhood.

It is one of the essentials of
the Jew that his realization of
this community stead stretch
SO fur back into the past. Old
Jewish cemeteries, old Jewish
tombstones, speak to him in it
language of their own. They
symbolize Jewish history, they
give memory not only to people,
but also to forms of life and to
laws that with all the changes
that have taken place, have yet
remained at bottom the sante.
Thal is why old •ewish ceme-
teries like those of Prague and
Fuerth grip one. They are
famous not only because they
make such an impressive pic-
ture, but because they are a
venerable and a grand witness
to the Jewish past.

The great city of Berlin has
no such witnesses to its Jewish
past, or at least it does not
know of them. There is indeed
an old Jewish cemetery in Ber-
lin that points back to the be-
ginnings of the history of the
Berlin Jewish community. But
it lies hidden away, and is 50
utterly forgotten that it is very

rarely indeed that a visitor
finds his way there.

'If he old Berlin Jewish ceme-
tery lies in the midst of the city
of Berlin, in the Grosse Ilani-
burgerstrasse, and from outside
you cannot tell what it is. The
big building of the Home fits
the Aged, maintained by the
Jtavisli community, is situated
in this street, and you have to
go through the gate of this
building to find y'ourse'lf in a
courtyard which adjoins this
tiny, ancient Jewish cemetery.
It is surrounded by big tenement
houses, whose walls constitute
the wan, the cemetery. And
tainsequently it look s cramped,
utterly cha n ,gi from what it
must have looked like when it
was first laid out. Yet it ini-
mit-ss es you with awe' like som•-

FROM 1672 TO 1827

The Jews of Berlin buried
their dead in this cemetery' from
1672 till 1827. It was laid out
in the days when the community
was in its infancy. It is re-
markable that very few fie:dill'
know of the existence of this
important volume of Jewish his-
tory.
Of all the once noted
folk who lie buried here, only
one, MOM'S Mendelssohn, is still
generally known.

first German-Jew to play a great
part in the life of the world out-
side and he was at the saint.

cipation. All the gravestones
in this cemetery carry inscrip-
tions exclusively in Hebrew, ex-
cept Moses Mendelssohn's, which
has the name in German char-
acters, but it was put up much
later, not till the nineteenth
century.

When this old cemetery was

closed, the community, which

had meanwhile grown in num-

bers and wealth, opened a new

big cemetery, which is also full

now, but occasionally there is
still a burial there. When it
Way opened, this cemetery lay
right outside the town, but the
town has grown, and now it is
situated in the very center .of
Berlin, in the Schoenhauser
Allee. In the oldest section
there are gravestones going

teenth century, but speaking
generally, this cemetery belongs
to the nineteenth century. There
