Jewish rabbis in the United
States and Canada. He is the

national and folk songs, 300 com-
positions for the piano, four
three-act musical comedies adn a
dramatic play.
The program of Sunday,
March 31, will include 30 num-
bers, some of which will be sung
and acted out by Mr. Small him-
self, and by pupils of the Oak-
land Hebrew School. Some of the
pupils will appear in solos and
others in a choir. An extra feat-
ure of the program will be vio-
lin solos by the famous concert
player, Madame Ida Divinoff.
The accompanist for the evening
will be Miss Ruth Sherman.
The program follows: "The
Spiritual World" by Ensemble,
"Mother's Tears" (song), "Chad
Gadya" (a legend), "Mar Mitz-
vah," "I Would Like to Be a
Child," "Children Dancing in a
Circle," "The Jewish Nation,"

All the foregoing songs, both
words and music, have been com-

Small.
Bernard Isaacs will be chair-
man of the evening.
I Unknown to a great many peo-
' pie in Detroit, there exists and
; operates within the Common
' Pleas Court a system unique in
the history of law.
This method, inauguarted by
Judge Joseph A. Gillis, one of the
Common Pleas Judges who is a
candidate for re-election, has
caused favorable comment in legal
circles throughout the United
States.
A "New Deal" for the working
man. That is what Judge Gilliis
had in mind when, in October
1932, he persuaded his fellow
judges in the Common Pleas
Court to permit him to establish
the Conciliation Division in the
court.
Judge Gillis drafted an act and
personally took it to Lansing
where it was enacted into law by
the 1932 legislature. This act per-
mits Judge Gillis to allow those
persons who have judgments
against them to come into his
court and file a petition to stop
garnishments. Judge Gillis states
the amount they should pay, and
then enters an order stopping the
issuance of any garnishment
against their wages during the
time that they make these pay-
ments.
Over 24,000 families have
sought relief in Judge Gillis'
court since its inception. At the
present time there are over 6000
families on budget in Judge Gil-
lis's court and through this unique
procedure of Judge Gillis, the
working man and woman do not
have to fear the dread of gar-
nishment or loss of their jobs, but
are working themselves out of
debt by the easy method of par-
tial payments installed by Judge
Gillis.

basis, there never were enough doc-
tors in Germany.
And Hitler, preparing to drive
still lower the national average
income of the German people, was
consequently attacking the already
below standard income of the medi-
cal profession.
Now Nazi economics, by lowering
the incomes of the population, does
not improve the conditions of the
professionals who expected to bene-
fit by the removal of Jewish pro-
fessional competition.
Hitler is not interested in the
welfare of the German professional
class any more than he is in the
welfare of the working or lower
middle classes. Hitler's masters are
the very small circle of munitions
makers, financiers and large indus-
trialists who are attempting by ter-
ror to prevent their historically or-
dained doom.
This is a terror aimed against
all those elements of the population
within and without Germany who
threaten the continued existence in
power of the present German
rulers.
Set
Hearts on Ukraine
Internally, these rulers—acting
through their puppets, the Nazis—
have declared economic war on all
economic classes whose conditions
can only be improved at the ex-
pense of the men at the top. As the
German economic structure careens
closer to hell on its long drop down-
ward, the owners of the Nazis em-
ploy one means after another of
protecting their own interests. And
the only way these rulers know of
holding on to their gold is to cut
the incomes and the wages of pro-
fessional men and workers in Ger-
many. As an additional step in
this process, they are cutting the
profits of the small shopkeepers
and business men
This, however, is still not enough
to save the situation for the powers
behind the Nazis. Consequently,
they are driving the standards of
living of all classes other than their
own down still further in order to
widen a foreign market. Hitler's
decree of March 16, 1935, ordering
the immediate establishment of a
conscript army of 500,000, is a
very clear indication of the methods
the real rulers of Germany expect
to use in their drive for a greater
slice of a foreign market.
The one thing the masters of Ger-
many, as it now exists, see as the
essential prerequisite for wider
foreign sales is new territory. This
territory must include certain na-
tural resources — oil, iron, water
power, coal, fertile wheat land, and
mineral deposits. It requires no
crystal gazing, therefore, to under-
stand that Hitler's backers have
their hearts set on a major slice
of the Ukraine.
Very well, but what about the
German Jews who were driven out
of their professions, and even—like
myself—into exile. I was born of
German parents in the Rhineland.
During the war, I served for four
years as a battalion doctor. Twice,
I was seriously wounded, and nip

a Red Cross stretcher. Yet, when
the Austrian alien Hitler came into

—Editor's Note.) Who were the
Dr. Manilocks of Germany? They
were the German Jewish profes-
sional who had served their coun-
try during the war, who identified
their interests with the status quo,
who were loyal to the traditions of
Ilindeburg and "order" and who
es-en tried to carry over their loy-
alty, as Germans, to Hitler.
Within all professions, however,
the Dr. Mainlocks constituted a
minority, and the policy of all
demogogues is to feed a helpless
minority to a duped majority. So
the 51amlocks were sacrificed to the
aims of Herr Hitler's masters.
Ilut what of the "Ilonorary Ar-
yans," and the Jews who are unmo-
lested by the Nazis—nay, protected
—even without honorary titles?
Their ranks do not include any
professional or working men. Nor
are any small lousiness men to be
found among them. They consist
of the reactionary elements who—
with their non-Jewish associates—
secretly supported Hitler long be-
fore the burning of the Reichstag.
A story popular in Berlin today is
to the effect that when one of their
organizations— the League of Ger-
man Nationalist Jews--meets under
its lickspittle leader, Naumann, all
the members arise, extend their
hands in the Hitler salute, and
shout, "Down with us! Down with
us!"
It becomes clear, then—and
every hour of Ilitlerism makes it
even clearer—that there is no spe-
cific Jewish problem in Germany
today. Nor was there ever any
isolated Jewish problem in Ger-
many at any period.
Battle Lines of Germany
In contemporary Germany, the
Jewish professionals were merely
the first to suffer. The attack on
the well-being of the non-Jewish
professionals was quick to follow.
The conditions of the professionals
—and the workers, and every one
but the select circle of rulers grow
steadily worse. And even these
rulers are preparing a new bloody
war to protect and extend the life
of their present positions.
These are the battle lines of Ger-
many, and within this framework
the future of the German Jewish
professional class must be settled.
The future of the German Jew-
ish professional class is the fut-
ure of the entire German profes-
sional class. Concurrently, the
future of the professional class is
irrevocably bound up with the fate
of the working and lower middle
classes of Germany.
What hope is there in sight for
these classes against the tiny, but
powerful, ruling class of Germany?
History is on their side; the arms
of the land are in the control of
their persecutors.
The small ruling class, its eco-
nomic structure collapsing under
its feet, must now turn to war to
preserve itself.
The vast majority of German
people, already hit by the Nazi eco-
nomic terror, will be asked to fight
their enemies' war. The German
people may not be able to prevent
this war. Should war be declared,
however, their only hope is to carry
out their historic mission of mak-
ing proper use of the guns which
will be thrust into their hands.
