This is a typical scene in • Jewish cooperative settlement in
Palestine. The happy boys and girls are engaged in dancing the
flora, the pioneer dance, during recess from their work on the field
in the busy season when they help their elders with the urgent work
in the colony. In addition to the major funds collected by the Jewish
National Fund and the Keren Hayesod, the health and educational
work of the pioneers is financed by the Palestine Labor Campaign
(Gewerkvhaften). The local Gewerkshaften campaign for a quota
of 815,000 is now being carried on.

STAGE AND SCREEN

A class in club leadership for
club leaders of the Jewish Com-
munity Center will be given by
Herman Jacobs, executive direc-
tor, of the Center, beginning Sun-
day, Feb. 7, at 11.
The course will emphasize
leadership in recreational insti-
tutions with particular applica-
tion to the Center organization
and program.
All registrations for the course
should be made with Mrs. Sarah
H. Selmin.

Kurt Well, whose music is so
important a part of "The Eternal
Road," has been signed by Walter
Wenger to do the music for a
picture of which Clifford Odets is
writing the script and which
Lewis Milestone will direct ... As
we mention "The Eternal Road"
we are reminded of the comment
made by one Aryan lady between
the acts of this Reinhardt pres-
entation . . . "I don't care—I'm
broadminded," she declared, "but
there'll be ■ lot of Christians
who'll object to the Jews trying to
make it appear that the Bible Is
their book.

All trade unions and labor
organizations are requested to
be on the lookout for commu-
nications from the so-called
"Kongress-Zentrale," Germany,
Berlin W. 95, Steglitzerstr. 28.
This organization is an agency
of the Gestapo, the German
State Secret Police, organized
for the purpose of spying on
anti-Nazi activities and utter-
ances abroad.
A warning to this effect has
been forwarded to the Labor
Chest by the International Fed-
eration of Trade Unions at
Paris, France. The I. F. T. U.
communication also points out
that the German agency is
writing to all conventions and
meetings held abroad request-
ing full information of these
meetings, their agenda, the list
of delegates, resolutions and
other activities.
