FLOYD B. OLSON
(CONCLUDED from EDITORIAL PAGE)
Mitzvah in his street Floyd
Olson was invariably in attend-
ance, awed by the religious
spectacle he viewed. On Rosh
Ilashonah and Yom Kippur,
when the occasion permitted,
he went to the synagogue with
his little Jewish friends. At
Passover time he was invited
to the "seder." Ofter he at-
tended "cheder" with them.
All this Governor Olson re-
membered as he matured and
entered into public life. When
he was county attorney in
Minneapolis, his office associates
recall, there were many callers
from his old home neighbor.
hood.
"You just tell Floyd that
Mrs. Shapiro is here to see
him. He'll remember."
"Sure," he would always
say when told of his caller
"send her right in," and regard-
less of what weighty matters
might have called for his atten-
lion he always took time out to
chat with his old friends. The
same was true when he became
governor.
An old Jewish tailor recalled
that when Olson was a youth of
13 he threw a ball through the
tailor shop window. Years later,
when he was chief executive of
the state, Olson met the old tail-
or in a state capitol elevator and
said. "Remember, 'Label,' when I
broke your window?"
His fight against the Ku Klux
Klan is considered one of the
high spots in Olson's career as
county attorney and one that
led him to St. Paul as governor
his state.
Mayor George F. Leach of
Minneapolis, running for re-elec-
tion, had come out openly against
the Klan, which was flourishing
at that time. The hooded night
riders, in an attempt to strike
back at the mayor, attacked him
in their organization publication.
Seven Klansmen were indicted
and County Attorney Olson pros-
ecuted the case personally and
secured convictions — the first
against the Klan in the United
States.
When he was governor, and
prior to that, while county at-
torney, Floyd Olson never re-
jected an invitation to appear at
a Jewish, function. Ile delighted
his audience time and again by
starting . his address in Yiddish.
More recently, just before en-
tering the Mayo clinic at Roch-
ester last December, he was one
of the speakers in a lecture series
sponsored by Beth El Synagogue
of Minneapolis.
As he stepped to the rostrum,
a "yarmelke" perched precarious-
ly on his red head, the audience
chubled .
His face wreathed in the tra-
ditional Olson smile, the Cover-
nor said, "Those of you who
marvel at my attire may rest as-
sured that it is not wholly with-
out precedent on my part."
At the conclusion of the lec-
ture he was presented with th e
following question: "Why didn't
the Governor of Minnesota bet
Governor herring of Iowa a
kosher cow instead of a pig?" re-
ferring to Olson's bet with the
Iowa chief executive on the out-
come of a football game between
the universities of the two states.
Olson's answer was:" Because
the Governor of Iowa isn't a
'kosher-esscr,' but a 'chazzer-
fresser.' "
Governor Olson's attitude to-
wards Nazism and Hitler was one
of scorn. In March, 1933, when
protest m e e t i n g s were held
throughout the country against
the Hitler regime, the Governor
addressed the huge gathering in
Minneapolis and voiced his ab-
horrence against the Nazis. He
was outspoken in his criticism
against race prejudice and perse-
cution of all kinds. He was al-
ways the champion of the "under -
dog."
Olson's closest aide and con-
stant companion during his gub-
ernatorial days was his Jewish
chauffeur, Maurice Rose. Rose
was ever with the Governor, sel-
dom leaving the "skipper's" side.
During Olson's fatal illness Rose
was the only person, besides Mrs.
Olson and their daughter, Patric-
ia, who was admitted to the sick-
room at all times.
Others closely identified with
him were Abe I. Harris, news-
paperman. a boyhood chum whom
he prevailed upon In take over
the editorship of the Minnesota
Leader, Farmer - Labor publica-
tion; and George B. Leonard,
Minneapolis attorney. Among the
Jews he appointed to high of-
fice were Judge Gustavus Loev-
inger, who was named to the
Ramsey County district bench in
St. Paul, and Edward J. Pealove,
appointed state comptroller.
Because he was a friend of all
the Twin City rabbis, Orthodox,
Conservative and Reform, Gover-
nor Olson's serious illness caused
the synagogues to conduct spec-
ial prayer services for his recov-
ery during his last days.
Governor Olson is dead, but
his memory will linter long with
the many friends he had. Minne-
sota Jewry. along with progres-
sive and liberal thinkers of the
State and nation, has lost • true
friend.

(Editorial in New York Post of Saturday, Aug. 29.)
All the familiar Nazi stuff — Jewish
gold, Jewish international bankers, Jew-
ish Communists—appears among the sly
insinuations in "Father Coughlin on the
Jewish Question," the radio priest's
latest.
If this is an effort to explain away
the anti-Semitism in some of his recent
speeches, it only succeeds—like most of
Father Coughlin's apologies and ex-
planations—in compounding the offense.
Father Coughlin isn't even original.
He repeats Hearst-Tory vaporings about
Felix Frankfurter and Bernard Baruch
and Rex Tugwell. In one breath Father
Coughlin complains that the New Deal
doesn't go far enough, and in the next
assails it as an alien Communistic plot.
This strengthens his resemblance to
Hitler. For Hitler, too, combined vague
pie-in-the-sky radicalism with attacks on
specific social reform as a "Commu-
nistic" and, of course, Jewish plot.
Unfortunately for the Reverend
Father, we don't think this kind of hog
swill is going to go over as well with
Americans as it did with Bavarian
yokels.

prominent Christians have join-
ed the organization which will
shortly establish branches in other
cities. Its first activity will be
the publication of a weekly paper
to be called Free Man. This per-
iodical will devote itself to coun-
teracting every piece of anti-
Jewish propaganda spread by the
Endeks and other anti-Semitic
groups in l'oland.
Meanwhile', the Endek press is
demanding that all Polish Jews
who have emigrated to Palestine
be deprived of their Polish citi-
zenship in order that they should
not be able tee return to Poland.
The annual appeal for the He-
brew Sheltering and Immigrant
Aid Society (Hies) is to be made
in Detroit synagogues during the
Holy Days by Julius Rosenfeld who
has been delegated by the national
office to spend several weeks in
Detroit for this purpose.
In addition to appeals in the
slmagogues, Dr. Rosenfeld will also
visit a number of organizations In
order to secure their support for
the flies.
Dr. Rosenfeld, who is a well-known
journalist, points out in his cur-
rent appeal that the work of Hies
is of particular importance at this
time in view of the fact that the
organization is called upon to
render important service to Ger-
man-Jewish refugees.

Fascists Will Expel Jews in Event
of Triumph, Spanish Rebel Says
NEW YORK (WNS)—In the
event of a Fascist triumph in the
Spanish civil war the Jews of
Spain will find themselves victims
of a re-enactment of the Expul-
sion of 1492. This in effect was
the statement made by General
Emilio Mots, one of the leading
Rebel commanders, in a copy-
righted interview with an Assoc-
iate Press correspondent at Bur-
rebel headquarters. Asked
coo,
by the correspondent "What plans
have you for the new Spanish
state," General Mole answered
frankly: "'Spain will be governed
in a fashion which will make it
impossible for power ever again
to fall into the hands of dirty

similar parasites on human so-
ciety.' General Mola's statement

a total of $7,000 sent from this
city since the beginning of the
drive.
A considerable number of new
contributors, individuals and or-
ganizations, whose donations were
received during the past week, en-
abled the local branch of the Amer-
ican Committee Appeal to dispatch
this additional aomunt to New
York for transmission to Poland.
Outstanding among the new con-
tributors is the estate of David W.
Simons, which sent a second gen-
erous check to help the needy Jews
in l'oland. The Simons estate con-
tributed substantially early in the
campaign but because distress
among our co-religionists in Poland
is so great, they sent a second
contribution to Treasurer Ehrlich.
The Arlazaroff branch, through
Joshua Joyrich, one of the most
active workers in the relief drive,
brought a large list of contribu-
tions by members of the branch to
the last general meeting held on
Aug. 27. President Nathan Ep-
stein of the Lachewitzer Unter-

ous sum from that organization;
the Kelzer Umgegend Verein sent
its contribution through its presi-
dent, Sam Weiss, and vice-presi-

by Nathan Rose, its delegate and
spokesman in the drive commit-

urer, Louis Kasoff, sent their
pledge to the relief fund, while Sam
Seligson, president of Northeastern

in an additional contribution from
members.

Plan Synagogue Appeal
Final plans for the appeal for
Polish relief In synagogues during
the high holidays were perfected
at a meeting of the committee of
rabbis and presidents of congre-
gations at Shaarey Zedek last
Tuesday.
Rabbi Joshua S. Specks presided
and together with Rabbis M. Zager,
J. Eisenman and J. Thumim and
supported by President I. Rosen-
berg of Beth Schmuel, I Sosnick
of B'nai Zion and Morris Shatzen
of Shaarey Zedek, agreed to recom-
mend to the synagogues that a ape-
cial appeal be made for the relief
of Jews in Poland; that an appeal
be published in the Rosh Ilasho-
nah edition of The Jewish Chron-
icle under the joint signature of
all Detroit rabbis and that an ap-
peal also be broadcast over the
radio.
Rabbi Sperka undertook to con-
tact the presidents of the various
congregations to make final ar-
rangements. Where a congrega-
tion desires • special speaker to
make the appeal, Rabbi Sperka
will assign a suitable person for
that purpose.
The newspaper appeal is being
prepared by Joshua S. Sperka and
Moses Fischer with the colabora-
ties of other rabbis.
In attendance at the meeting was
also a committee representing the
American Committee Appeal com-
posed of Chairman Henry M.
Abramovitz, Judge Joseph San-
ders, A. Greenbaum, Morris Shatz--
en, J. R. Greenberg and Secre-
tary Nathan L. Welch.
An effort will also be made to
contact rabbis and congregations
in other cities in Michigan.
