WARSAW — The peasant
strikes have been turned into anti-

As a result of the new disorders,
two were killed and many injured
on Tuesday.
Two peasants were killed and
22 injured when they overturned
a lorry containing vegetables,
which a Jew tried to bring to

raided the Jewish market at
Bransk, injuring 50 Jewish ped-
dlers.
World Parley on Polish Jewry
Shuns Attacks on Poland
ANTWERP (WNS)-Attacks on
Poland and the Polish govern-
ment for their treatment of the
Jews are being carefully eschew-
ed by all speakers at the second
world conference of the Federation
of Polish Jews Abroad which is
meeting at Harmonic Hall here.
This policy has been adopted be-
cause the Belgian authorities ex-
acted a guarantee from the spon-
sors of the conference that no at-
tacks on Poland would be per-
mitted. It is understood that the
Belgian government took this at-
titude to mollify the Polish am-
bassador who had insisted that
the whole conference be prohibit-
ed. The opening was addressed
by Benjamin Winter, president of
the Federation of Polish Jews in
America and also of the World
Federation; Jacob Fishman, editor
of the Jewish Morning Journal;
S. Liber leader of the Polish Jews
in Belgium, and Rabbis Bradt and
Shapiro of Antwerp.
A hint that the economic boy-
cott may be invoked against Po-
land if the government of that
country continued to tolerate
pogroms was conveyed to the con-
ference in a letter by Samuel
UnturtnYer...nresillent of the Non-
Sectarian Anti-Nazi League. Mr.
Untermeyer warned that Ameri-
cans would refuse to aid Poland
economically "so long as pogroms
are tolerated by the Polish govern.
ment" and added that "should the
Polish government decide to guar-
antee protection and the rights of
Polish Jews, Americans will help
Poland become once more an ec-
onomically independent state."
Wealthy English Jews Refuse
Backing for Polish Jewish
Relief Drive
LONDON (WNS)—The unwill-
ingness of England's wealthy Jews
to contribute to a special fund for
the relief of Polish Jewry has
forced the Board of Deputies of
British Jews to abandon plans for
a Polish Jewish relief drive. The
well-to-do Jews are reported to
have argued that they cannot do
anything for Polish Jewry at this
time because they are still raising
funds for German Jewry. To meet
this situation the Federation of
Jewish Relief Associations of Eng-
land has issued its own appeal for
the Polish Jews but this plea has
not received the support of the
Board of Deputies. As a condi-
tion of its support the Board had
insisted that the Federation turn
over all money it raises to the
Joint Distribution Committee but
the Federation insisted on distrib-
uting the funds in its own way.
Friend and Guide
By SIMON SHETZER,
Chairman of the Board of Detroit
Service Group
I gladly avail myself of this op-
portunity to congratulate Mr. But-
zel on the occasion of his sixtieth
birthday and to extend to him my
warmest wishes for happiness and
many more fruitful years.
I greet Fred Butzel as friend and
guide. I salute him as leader and
hail him as Michigan's most dis-
tinguished Jewish citizen.
Fred Butzel is eminently de-
serving of the honor which the
Detroit Jewish community and his
host of admirers outside of De-
troit are according him through the
Butzel Forest in Palestine, linking
his name permanently with the re-
building of the Jewish National
home, with the rebirth of the Jew-
ish people and the renaissance of
our cultural heritage, to which
causes he has contributed so gen-
erously, as he has to all worthy

his unceasing sacrifice of his per-
son and of his means on behalf of
the less fortunately circumstanced
and of the under-privileged, par-
ticularly his appreciation of the

earned him the sincere respect and
regard of his fellow citizens but
constantly evoke the admiration

the additional privilege to know
him more intimately.
Fred Butzel's birthday is more
than a gladsome personal event; it
is an occasion of rejoicing for the
whole community, both Jewish and
non-Jewish, which he has made no
infinitely richer because of his par-
ticipation in its affairs and of the
inspired leadership and guidance
he has bestowed upon it. It Is onr
fervent hope that God in his wis-
dom will spare Fred Butzel in
health and in vigor for many years
to come in which he will continue
to render his unique and invaluable
service and to enrich the lives and
the personalities of those men and
women who are blessed with his
benefaction and his friendship.
A Pivotal Figure
In Communal Life
By JUDGE HARRY B. KEIDAN
Fred M. Butzel, whose reaching
three score of years we are grate-
fully celebrating, is one of the
finest men Detroit has produced.
He is unique in the life of the
Jewish community and in that of
the community as a whole.
Fred M. Butzel is a philanthro-
pist by every test and standard.
The strides made in the field of
social service in this city are in
large measure the result of the in-
telligence, vision and personal driv-
ing force of Mr. Butzel. Not alone
money, which he has given without
stint, but personal participation in
various forms of humane service
explains why Fred M. Butzel is, in
a real sense, a pivotal figure in
our communal life.
One would not have to go for
afield to point out what this fine
man has meant to the promotion of
good citizenship in Detroit. Any-
one who knows Fred Butzel is
aware of what his governing prin-
ciples are. Anyone who has come
under his influence is to that ex-
tent a better citizen.
But above all, what I like most
in Fred Butzel is his sincerity,
the ever-youthful simplicity, of his
character.
Many years to you Fred Butzel
and health and strength to do the
things which have made your life
so meaningful to us all.
Judge Jayne Lauds
Butzel's Efforts
In a letter to the editor of The
Chronicle, Judge Ira W. Jayne of
the Wayne County Circuit Court
writes:
I'm glad you included me among
those who are to congratulate Fred
Butte! on his sixtieth birthday. He
is such a forthright man that it is
difficult to tell him what you think
of him to his face, especially if it
is laudatory—he will probably give
you an argument about It.
But for a generation, Detroit's
most vital generation. he has been
an outstanding factor in efforts
for this city's civic and social well-
being. He has contributed aggres-
sive, objective, and intelligent
leadership.
He is now In the fullness of his
strength, and there is much to be
done in Detroit—more power to
him.

GENEVA.—The Mandates Commission of the League of Nations in its Palestine report
approves in principle the attempt to solve that problem by partition, but insists that the
Jewish and Arab States should continue under mandate until ripe for statehood, accord-
ing to the official summary of the report.
It suggests that the apprenticeship should be carried out either through both States re-
ceiving autonomy and full power to regulatte immigration while remaining under Brit-
ain's mandate for defense, foreign affairs, customs etc., or through separate mandates for each state.
The commission holds that the success of any partition policy will depend more on its effects on Arab-Jewish
relations than on its division of territory. It appeals to both peoples to recognize all that Britain has done for each.
It criticizes Britain for having so tardily taken decisive measures against the 1936 disturbances, finds that the man-
date obligations had not previously appeared irreconcilable, admits that the general situation, however, has been
worse and considers that the mandate became "almost unworkable" when the Royal Commission and Government
declared it to be.
It strongly favors the proposed
British mandate over holy places.
