The Conference also asserted that
"while fully aware that difficulties
must arise from the presence in
certain districts of large popula-

and social habits, asserts the fact
that Jew and Christian are chil-

on all Christians to stand firm
against any and every attempt to
arouse anti-Semitic feelings for
political or any other ends."

Vatican Seeks to C

ROME (WNS)—Publication of
the Vatican's program of contem-

Church proposes to undertake an
extensive missionary campaign
among the Falashas, or black
Jews of Ethiopia.
In an obvious attempt to allay
widespread fears that the recent
anti-Semitic utterances in leading
Italian newspapers presaged the
beginning of an about-face by
Italy on the Jewish question, II
Popolo d'Italia, personal organ of
Benito Mussolini, published an
article bitterly assailing Sir Os-
wald Mosley, British Fascist chief-
tain, for introducing a racial is-
sue into British Fascism. Gen-
erally believed to have been writ-
ten by II Duce, the article de-
dared that Mosley's anti-Semitism
befouls Fascism by copying the
non-Italian forms of Fascism. At
the same time, however, Regime
Fascista renewed its attack on
the Jews by emphasizing that
Mussolini agrees with its argu-
ment that Italian Jews must sever
all connections with the World
Jewish Congress and with the
Jewries of Spain, France and Rus-
sia. The paper also deplores the
rumor that an influential Ameri-
can Jew is going to Italy to look
into reports of Italian anti-Semit-
ism.

and THE LEGAL CHRONICLE

harsher curbs against its Jewish
population jelled into official con-
firmation when Propaganda Min,
ister Goebbels told a Berlin mass
meeting that harder anti-Jewish
laws are in the offing. "I am told
that the Jews are becoming im-
pertinent again," he said. "Let
them beware. The more imper-
tinent they become, the harder
will be our laws. At another
meeting General Hermann Wil-
helm Goering, recently named
economic dictator, charged the
Jews, the World War Allies and
the foreign press with joint re-
sponsibility for Germany's eco-
nomic plight.
Earlier reports that the Nazi
secret police had banned all Jew-
ish meetings are now shown to
have been unfounded. The sec-
ret police have merely issued or-
ders that 10 days advance notice
must be given before any such
meetings are held. It is also re-
quired that the purposes of the
meeting and the names of sched-
uled speakers must be registered
with the police.
The Nazis rate mania is now
being extended even to pigs.
A survey of Germany's pigs
by Nazi experts disclosed that
10 per cent of the porcine pop-
ulation of the Reich is, sad to
relate, "without a race" and
hence of qo value. The survey
divided Germany's pigs into
those described a "German
noble white hog," "ennobled
country bred pig" and just plain
Pigs.
Elimination of a large number
of Jewish organizations in var-
ious parts of Germany was fore-
shadowed here with the receipt of
instructions by the officials of all
Jewish groups calling upon them
to furnish the secret police with
all their records, membership
iists and other pertinent data. On
the basis of information obtained
from these records the police will
determine which organizations may
continue to function. The ban
on all Jewish meetings and gath-
erings is believed to be connected
with the same matter,

BUENOS AIRES (WNS)—Ar-
gentine Jewry is now the ninth
largest in the world and the Jew-
ish community of Buenos Aires
holds a similar place among the
world's principal centers of Jew-
ish population, according to a
census made by Suprotimis, Jew-
ish immigrant aid society. The
census reveals that at the end
o f 1935 there were 260,235 Jews
in Argentina, 55 per cent of them
in Buenos Aires. This figure was
increased by more than 5,000 this
year through immigration and a
surplus of births over deaths. The
census also showed that in 10
years, from 1926 to 1935, there
were 50,606 Jewish immigrants
admitted to the country, includ-
ing 3,195 in 1935. Principal oc-
cupations in which Jews are found
are commerce, industry, artisan-
ship, liberal professions and agri-
culture.

German Jew Must Migrate

the changed attitude of German
Jewry and the utter despair of
its leaders, Dr. Jacob R. Marcus,
well-known .scholar and author,
returned this month from an ex-
tended European tour and sur-
vey. Dr. 'Marcus who is professor
of history at the Ilebrew Union
College and author of the re-
cently-published "Rise and Des-
tiny of the German Jew," de-
scribed a pall of apprehension
which has spread itself over all
the Jewish communities of central
and eastern Europe with the ex-
ception of Soviet Russia.
"I did not meet a single leader
—including the so-called assimila-
tionist Jews," Dr. Marcus assert-
ed, "who saw the slightest hope
of a future for Jews in Germany.

The Smaller School

By A. J. EPEL

While some of the large schools.
such as the Philadelphia-Byron
and Tuxedo branches, have become
very popular in Detroit, some
smaller schools in the outlying dis-
tricts are hardly known. Such
schools generally serve not only
the children of the neighborhood
but the adults as well. These
schools are invariably a school for
children and a center for grown-
ups. One of these schools, with
which I have been connected for
a number of years, is known as
the Six-Mile Road School, and is
located at Brush and Minnesota
Ayes. It was built some 12 years
ego and it has always had all the
activities of the entire local com-
munity centered around the school
building. The school was built with
the cooperation and assistance of
the United Hebrew Schools and
has since been fully connected and
completely supervised by the
United Ilebrew Schools. It has,
however, retained its autonomy.
It has its own board of directors,
its own officers who meet periodi-
cally and are very closely con-
nected with all the activities of
the school.
While this school has had only
one graduating class—I refer to
the 1936 class—it nevertheless has
many students attending the He-
brew High School at both the Tux-
edo and Philadelphia -B yron
branches, some of them rating
very high in their subjects. This
is due to the fact that many par-
ents moved from this neighborhood
before their children had fully
completed their elementary course
an dhad been transferred to the
main branches where they had
graduated and entered the high
school.
At the present time, because of

the tendency to move away from
this section, the school has an en-
rollment of about 50 children.
Much credit Is due to the Wo-
man's Auxiliary of the Hebrew
school who watch Carefully the
attendance of the pupils and visit
the home of those who are tardy
or absent. This woman's group is
part of the large men's board and
participates in all matters per-
taining to the school.
The school building also has
facilities for a synagogue where
services are held daily.

Harry Cohen Thanks Heads
of Education Month
Committees

Editor, Detroit Jewish Chronicle:
Please permit me to extend my
personal thanks and that of our
board to those people who were in-
strumental in making our 10th an-
nual Education Month such a huge
success,
I want to make mention here of
Nathan Milstein, chairman of the
radio committee, who organized a
group of very fine speakers to de-
liver addresses over the various
radio stations: of Aaron Kurland,
Harry Weinberg and Hyman Alt-
man who gave us free time on
their radio hours; of Max Barahal,
chairman of the speakers' commit-
tee, through whose efforts many
addresses were delivered in the
synagogues and other houses of
worship, during the High Holi-
days; and of the teachers 'staff
of the United Hebrew Schools who
gave us their whole-hearted co-
operation in this Education Month
project.

The Kvutzah Ivrith

By AARON ROSENBERG

ish holidays that have become the
by-word in our Jewish life in this
city? Yet, the Kvutzah is very
modest.
The ladies' auxiliary has always
been and still is a great factor in
the life of the Kvutzah. For it is
the ladies that help along with the
material things, although they en-
joy the spiritual as well as the
men.
A splendid offering is the Chug
Ila-tzoir, consisting of an active
and aggressive group of young
men and women. They add color
and vivacity to the cultural un-
dertakings of the senior group.
For many years the guiding
spirit of this group was that great
Jew, scholar and thinker, the late
Aaron D. Markson. His wit, his
inexhaustible fountain of Jewish
lore was an inspiration to the
membership. And although his
passing left a void never to be
filled, his followers carried on
with his enthusiasm for every-
thing that is beautiful in Jewish
life and Jewish culture. Under
the present leadership, consisting
of men of the type of Bernard
Isaacs, M. Michlin, Abraham Pa-
nush, Maurice Landau, and other
outstanding Jews, the banner on
which is inscribed the beauty and
love for the Hebrew word is cour-
ageously and intelligently upheld.

The Kvutzah Ivrith, the only
Hebrew speaking group in Detroit,
is near and dear to those Jews
who understand, speak and ap-
preciate the Ilebrew word. Not
only is it a place of refuge for
those who speak the Ilebrew lan-
guage fluently, but a haven for
those who are willing to learn.
"East is East and West is West
and the twain shall never meet"
does not hold true in this group.
For the Palestinian pronunciation,
the Berditchever accent and the
Detroit Anglicized Hebrew feel
equally at home here. The old
fashioned "sholem aleichem" is
as natural in the Kvutzah as the
modern "shalom." Love for the
Jewish Ilomeland, the Hebrew
word and the Hebrew literature—
this is the quintessence of the
Kvutzah.
The leaders and members of
the Kvutzah, however, were not
satisfied with mere talk. During
the past six years, during which
this writer had the good fortune
to be associated with this splendid
group of men and women and en-
deavored to contribute his bit to-
wards the promotion of its diver-
sified program, the Kvutzah popu-
larized itself by going' to the
masses as well as the classes. Who BROADWAY NOTES

Talmud Torah
and Tuition Fees

By M. LACHOVER

gaged in the field of Jewish edu-
cation.
Our propaganda efforts and RS-
licity must be directed at the par-
ents, not only with a view of in-
ducing greater and more continu-
ous attendance in the schools, but
also with the aim of stressing their
first and foremost obligation to pay
tuition fees for their child. The
parents must be made conscious of
the advantages of a community
school, properly organized, with
high standards of instruction and
supervision, and must be influ-
enced to change their conception
of the term Talmud Torah.
We do not for a moment enter-
tain the notion that Jewish educe- ,
tion should become the private
concern of the individual parent
—Indeed not, Jewish education
must continue to remain the con-
cern and responsibility of the en-
tire community, but the individual
parent must not relieve himself
from the obligation of paying his
share of the school tax—tuition
fee of his child. We feel that this
is a project, worthy of concern of
all those engaged in the field of
Jewish education.

There is one aspect of Jewish
education that we have dlwiye
omitted or failed to emphasize dur-
ing our Education Month in all
our radio talks and other addres-
ses, and this is the problem of
tuition fee. This phase of our work
constitutes one of the most per-
plexing problems with which we
are confronted today. Although
our system of collecting tuition
fees has been greatly improved,
nevertheless, we feel, that
the results are sot commen-
surate with our efforts. Many of
our parents do not place the obli-
gation of paying tuition fees for
their children on the same level
as other necessities, let alone rais-
ing it above everything.
Analyzing this problem, we find
that although the literal meaning
of the word "Talmud Torah" is the
learning of the Torah, practically,
however, the Talmud Torah has
always served as a house of learn-
ing particularly for those children G ENTILES AND JEWS
