Denominational Rally GENEVA — The World Jewish Congress early this week made representations to the League of Nations against a law being pro- posed In Rumania which would make racial quotas the basis of employment. Dr. Nahum Goldmann, chair- mann of the administrative com- mittee of the world Jewish Con- gress, represented the congress in presenting to the League of Na- tions the opposition of the organ- ization and the disclosure that the bill as proposed is in viola- tion •of the Peace Treaty signed by Rumania and the principal al- lied powers, including the United States. Contravention to Treaty The law as proposed would make it mandatory for industrial, professional or commercial enter- prises to employ a minimum of 75 per cent of Rumanians of "eth- nic' origin. The remaining 25 per cent may be 20 per cent Ru- manian citizens, irrespective of their origin, with the remaining 6 per cent those who are not Ru• manian citizens. In representations made to the League of Nations it is pointed out that the law, if passed, would be in direct contravention to Ru- mania's undertaking in the peace treaties—that there should be no discrimination against Rumanian citizens on account of race, reli- gion, creed or language. Inspired by Anti-Semites Informed circles point out that this measure has been definitely inspired by the anti-Semitic for- ces now on the upsurge in Ru- mania, and may be regarded as a concession to the anti-Semitic views of the Iron Guard. It is further pointed out that unem- ployment in Rumania is not very large, with the total number of unemployed approximating 30,- 000, and the bill for the Protec• tion of Rumanian labor cannot, therefore, be regarded as a meas- ure to reduce unemployment. I Since Jews, for historical reasons, live for the most part in large cities, they are principally en- gaged in commerce, industry and the professions and would bear the brunt of the attack should the bill become law. There is a dan- ger that despite the fact that the Rumanian parliament has adjourn- ed and new elections are set for the Fall, the government may ex- ercise the emergency powers con- ferred on it to enact the bill into law by decree. It is further pointed out that of the total population of Rumania, approximately 60 per cent are Ru- manians of "ethnic" origin; about 20 per cent are Rumanian citi- zens of German and Hungarian origin; 4 to 6 per cent are Jews and the remainder comprise var- ious nationalities. TELF-PHONR CADILLAC 1-04-0 THE LEGAL CHRONICLE DETROIT, MICHIGAN, FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1937 JEWISH CONGRESS! ATTACKS RUMANIAN A CRUCIAL COMMUNITY TEST Jewry Must Show Its Readiness to Come to RACIAL QUOTA LAW Detroit the Aid of the Distressed and Unfortunate Representations Made to the League of Nations by Dr. Goldmann IN MICHIGAN NEWSPAPER PRINTED RADIO APPEALS FOR THE ALLIED DRIVE • In Our Ranks The crucial test of the liberality and the giving power of the Jewish community of Detroit is being applied this week as a preliminary to the Allied Jewish Campaign proper. In view of the large demands upon the commu- nity necessitated by the extremely difficult situation in world Jewry today, it has become necessary for the executive committee of the General Division of the Allied Jewish Campaign to start solicitations in advance among the larger contributors in order to assure an encouraging beginning for the drive when it officially opens on May 2. A great deal is at stake at the present time. It is absolutely essential that the efforts of the executive committee should meet with success. The commu- nity at large is watching every move we make at this time and the success of the efforts of the executive committee will make for success in the efforts of the entire drive. Our executive committee must pave the way for a successful campaign. We are the advance guard that is striving for triumph for humanitarian efforts by Detroit Jewry. The burden of responsibility at this time rests upon this advance guard, and we therefore appeal to prospective contributors to strengthen the hands of this committee and to give us the encouragement that is essential in this crucial hour. We call upon the Jewish community of Detroit to set the high standard for philanthropic service that is demanded by the present hour. The result of our efforts will be analyzed as a test of this com- munity's liberality. We furthermore appeal to De- troit Jews to welcome our solicitors with kindness and to encourage them in their work. Our volun- teer workers are not only giving of their time, but also of their. own monitary contributions. By re- ceiving your encouragement, they will be in a posi- tion to approach other contributors with greater faith in their mission. We ask Detroit Jews to respond liberally and promptly and to assure the 47 agencies included in the campaign that they will receive the pledged amounts that they need for their sustenance. In the hands of the Jewish community of De- troit lies the destiny of thousands and in the name of these distressed we call upon our people to give us the encouragement we need in this campaign.

A Jewish Who's Who of Big League Baseball By IRV KUPCINET Serer. Arts Sports Editor (Bertram Jona., Pinch-Hitting) This Is the time of year when a Jewish sports writer has to call the roll of Jewish ball players in the big leagues. Not so long ago there was no roll to call, but things are different today. It wasn't so many years ago that the Jew in baseball was • freak. Press and public made a great to-do over every Jewish rookie. And if he had a name like Cohen or Levy he was a seven-day wonder. But today Jewish boys have done so well in the big leagues that they are taken for granted. A Hank Greenberg will stir up a lot of enthusiasm for a year but then he becomes just another base- ball star. That's why we want to call the roll for you, to remind you who's who among Jews on the big league diamonds. Green- berg, of course, is still the shining example of a crack Jewish ball player, but there are others, too. So here's the list: POSITION TEAM NAME HANK GREENBERG, Detroit Tiger., first base.

The quiet precinct near the Mosque of Omar in the Old City of Jerusalem was thrown into a turmoil when a Bedouin opened a volley of gunfire at Arabs leav- ing the Mosque. Four were ser- iously wounded and one slightly. The Bedouin, who is believed to have acted from political motives, was captured by bystanders im- mediately after the shooting, but members of the Mufti's family intervened and aided his escape.
