Dr. Stephen S. Wise, honorary president of the American Jewish Congress, and former Congress- man Nathan D. Perlman, vice- president, conferred with Presi- dent Green in Washington and an- nounced to him the readiness of the Congress to act in co-operation with the American Federation of Labor. Mr. Deutsch called upon Amer-• can Jews and all organizations prosecuting the boycott in this country, to pool their plans, re- sources and actions with the A. F. of L., and commended Mr. Green's instructions to the membership of the A. F. of L. as a courageous and exemplary upholding of hu- man rights. Untermyer Gratified, Samuel Untermyer, president of the Nonsectarian Anti-Nazi League to Champion Human Rights, ex- pressed gratification at the step taken by William Green, presi- dent of the American Feedration at Labor, in Washington in ask- ing that the boycott be more strictly applied to German im- ports. Mr. Untermyer declared that the boycott is becoming more effective with recent resolutions of Ameri- can buyers to refrain from pur- chasing wares made in Germany. Mr. Untermyer began an inves- tigation of Nazi propaganda activi- ties which are designed to incite race hatred against the Jews. Stickers, profusely distributed over the city, urge the boycott of Gen- tiles. Artistically designed, the stickers bear large black print reading: "Buy Jewish — Boycott Gentiles," That there be no doubt is to the authenticity of the kickers, their makers have in- ecribed the star of David in the center of which is the law of Moses, and other trappings sym- bolic of Jewish traditions appear in the stamp. Dutch Social Democrats, Unions Push Boycott. 1 The Dutch Social Democrptic party and the Trade Union Center In Holland have set up a central boycott committee and local com- inittees for boycotting goods made in Hitler Germany, according to the press reports of the Interna- tional Federation of Trade Unions (IFTU), The aim of the commit- tee is to engage young people principally in the propaganda ac- tion required. The Dutch labor movement is spending large sums Of money to make the boycott as effective and fruitful as possible. Since the boycott Is based on Individual, personal activity, the labor movement lays stress on in- fluencing the Dutch consumer, the eeports state. Articles and illus. trations on the boycott are printed is the trade union press. All pub- lications affiliated with the move- Went refuse German advertise- ments. No references are made In the trade union press to articles and reviews published in the Ger- man press. The union press con- tinually publishes lists of German goods and the substitutes for them. And also mass meetings Ire arranged and boycott agita- tion is carried on there. Proposed Nazi Investigation. Samuel Dickstein, chairman of the House of Representatives Im- migration and Naturalization Com- mittee, who has been conducting an investigation into Nazi affairs, announced that he would make no request for the chairmanship of a special committee expected to be appointed shortly after Con- gress resumes in January. In Jewish circles Dickstein's attitude is interpreted as a con- cession to the feeling that the value of the Nazi investigation would be impaired by having a Jew at the head of it. In recent months Dickstein has been the target for criticism from many sources in this respect. Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi Group. A new organization has been formed by the American League for the Defense of Jewish Rights which will have as its purpose to launch a campaign against the spread of Nazi propaganda in this country as well as to conduct the boycott, according to Samuel Un- termyer, president of both or- ganizations. The new group will be known as the Non-Sectarian .Anti-Nazi League to Champion Human Rights. Mr. Untermyer announced that the reorganized body will continue to concentrate upon the boycott, which he characterized as "the only effective weapon in defense of basic human rights and for the preservation of democratic insti- tutions, religious freedom and the inalienable rights of man against medieval barbarism, which has seized control of Germany, throt- tled its free institutions and is threatening the peace and free-, dom of the world." Mr. Untermyer is president of the reorganized League. Other officers are Rabbi A aba Billet Sil- ver of Cleveland, first vice-presi- dent; Victor J. Dowling, former Presiding Justice of the Appelate Division, First Department; Ar- thur S. Tompkins, Associate Jus- tice of the Appelate Division; James W. Gerard, former Ambas- sador to Germany; Dr. A. Coral- nik, associate editor of The Day, vice-presidents; J. David Stern, publisher of the New York Eve- ning Post, national areasurer; Louis Myers, acting treasurer, and Ezekiel Rabinowitz, secretary. _ ral off St. John the Divine, a gift of Adolph Ochs, as evidence of good will. Rabbi Ilenry A. Schorr, minister of Temple Adath Israel, who presided, said that the flag in the Temple was given by John I). Rockefeller, Jr. Brainbridge Colby, former secre- tary of state, referred to political affairs in Germany as an "unbe- lievable aberration.' Nathan Straus, Jr., former state senator and an outstanding leader in Jewish affairs and philanthro- pist, made a plea for "study of the other man's view-point," adding that an understanding of other cul- tures and other beliefs leads to to- lerance. Byrnes MacDonald, son of the Papal Marquis, declared that the persecution of the Jews in Germany "has been so hateful, so ugly, and so contrary to the social and civil precepts in so many lands that one is justified in stating that the pres- ent regime has tried to suppress political freedom and deny to men the right to think and express their thoughts freely." The American Good-Will Union sponsored the program. Nation's Honor Roll. The annual roll of honor com- piled by The Nation In its current issue features along with a list of eminentpublic figures who were engaged in national recovery, the recognition of Russia, the repeal of prohibition, six others who are enumerated for special recognition under the title: "Hitlerism Com- bated." In an introductory, paragraph, The Nation says: "The most dread- ful page in the history of 1933 is the cruel and Irrational fury which the Nazis vented upon Jews and radicals in Germany." Then follows a list of well-known names cited for their achievements, including Ed- gar Ansell Mowrer, "for his forth. right insistence upon the right of the press to gather and send the news of Fascist outrages;" Arthur Garfield Hays, "for his attempt to get justice for the defendants in the Reichstag fire trial;" George S. Messersmith, "for upholding the rights of American citizens in Ger- many;" Alvin S. Johnson, lir bringing a group of ousted German professors to this country and es- tablishing them as the staff of the University in Exile; Sherwood Eddy, "who as a leader of a group of American educators visiting Germany seized the occasion of a reception by the Carl Schurz So- ciety to denounce Nazi policy and state what bad effect it was having on world affairs;" Calvin B. Hoov- er, "for his revealing book 'Ger- many Enters the Third Reich.'" Jews who through outstanding achievements were selected' for honor by the magazine, including Mr. Hays, are the following: Samuel S. Llebowitz, "who un- der the threat of bodily harm has twice conducted the Scottsboro de- fendants through their trial." Morris L, Ernest, "who for years has led the legal fight against cen- sorship, who has just successfully defended Joyce's Ulysses, and who, more than any other one per- son, is responsible for the changed attitude of the courts. Magistrate Benjamin Greenspan, "who dismissed the case brought by the Society for the Prevention of Vice against Erskine Caldwell's 'God's Little Acre,' and who ruled that the opinion of recognized lit- erary critics was more relevant than that of the professional smut specialist." Sam H. Harris, for efforts to con- trol under NRA ticket speculation in the theater. Edward J. Bromberg, "for his interpretation of the role of the old doctor in 'Men in White.'" Felix Frankfurter and Jerome Frank for their part in national recovery, Refugees Receive Posts in Pales- tine Hospitals. Thirty-five German Jewish re- fugee phyaicians now in Palestine have received appointments or per- mission to do post-graduate study in hospitals maintained or subsi- dized by the liadassah medical or- ganization in Palestine, according to word received here by the Ila- dassah, Women's Zionist Organiza- tion. • Three doctors were given posts in the Hadassah-Rothschild Hospi- tal in Jerusalem, four in the Muni- cipal-Hadassah Hospital in Tel Aviv, one in the Haifa Hospital, and one in the rural medical serv- ice. The rest will do post-graduate I work at hospitals in various parts of Palestine. Seven scholarships which are to be used for establishing research followships for German Jewish stu- dents and which are valued at $2,500 each, will be distributed by the American Academy for Jewish Research when a fund-raising drive for the money is completed. According to l'rof Salo Baron professor of Hebrew Literature at Columbia University and secretary of the academy, more than 81,500 has already been subscribed for the ! fund.

BERLIN.—(JTA)—More than one-third of the total number of stores in Berlin, some 23,877, are empty as a result of the ruin that has overtaken Jewish trade, Der Angriff, leading Nazi newspaper, disclosed.

P II I L A DELPHIA.—(JTA)— The ultranationalistic policy of the Hitler government, with its race hatreds and persecutions, was sai- led "distinctly anti-Christian" by Dr. Rudolph M. Binder, professor emeritus of sociology, New York University, at a meeting of the re- ligious section of the American So- ciological Society. "St. Paul was the first advocate of race equality and of the prin- ciple as • fundamental of the Chris- tian religion," Dr. Binder declared. "Race prejudice is removed by Christian love. "Anti-Semitism and national ha- tred,' in Europe are distinctly anti- Christian.

Protest Against Use Or German-Made Goods At New Year's Affairs Back from Honeymoon. Numerous complaints have been made through The Detroit Jewish Chronicle against a number of Jewish organizations in this city at whose New Year Eve functions German-made souvenirs and noise-makers were used. Upon investigation it woe found that in every instance the use of these materials was unintentional, in some instauces having been used by hotels as left-overs from last year's New Year parties. All against whom the com- plaints were directed were apologetic and expressed assur- ances that these mistakes will not be repeated. SLATKIN BROTHERS MANAGERS OF NEW DEXTER CHEVROLET MRS. SAMUEL SANDLER The Dexter Chevrolet Company, formerly doing business under the name of Faber Chevrolet, Inc., 11634 Dexter boulevard at Bur- lingame avenue, is the develop- ment in another field by Slatkin Brothers, Joseph B. Slatkin and Adolph Slatkin, who, in concen- trating their activities in the auto- mobile business, have met with unusual success in merchandising and servicing the Chevrolet car. Associated with the Slatkin brothers are men capable and ex- perienced in the automobile line. Claire DeVine, sales manager, has long been connected with Chev- rolet, and in no small measure has contributed to the good-will of the many patrons that have been well satisfied with the purchase of their cars from the Dexter Chevrolet Co. Their modern up-to-date service station, equipped to handle every phase of mechanical repairs, bumping and painting, together with the newest development in scientific car washing, combine to make it a most satisfying arrange- ment for their customers. George Woodward, with 20 years of Chev- rolet experience, is in charge of service. So well a job have the Slatkin brothers done in 1933 that the Chevrolet Motor Car Company's statistical department rate their dealership first in dealer accom- plishment among all dealers in De- troit who sell low-priced cars. With this record of accomplish- ment they start the new year con- fident of their ability to carry on their good work. Jewish Democratic Club To Meet Tuesday.

Scholars at Radin On Strike for Food WARSAW. — (JTA) — A unique strike was declared here by the students of the Radin Yeshiva, famous Jewish theo- logical seminary. The students announced that they would refrain from par- ticipation in Talmud study, the chief occupation at the Yeshiva, so long as they are not pro- vided with food. The Radix Yeshiva w a s founded by the late "Chofetz Chaim," aged Jewish scholar and sage, who died a short time ago. Since his death, officials in charge of the Yeshiva have been unable to provide the stu- dents with food. As long as the "Chofetz Chaim" was alive, hie,- enormous prestige among ortho- dox Jews and the world-wide recognition of his saintly char- acter brought heavy contribu- tions to the Yeshiva, which ap- pear to have stopped on his death.
