THE DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE PAGE TWELVE of the most unique books On e American Jewry, "The sbout American Jew—A Study in Back- ,rou nds," by Rabbi Abraham J. Feldman, editor of the Hartford Jewish Ledger, will appear next month . . . What makes the book different is that it shows the Amer- ican to be a composite of the his- toric background of Jews of Span- ish-Portugese, Russian-Polish and German origin.

JEFFERSON LEnox 2022 NEW TEAMS GREETINGS Cooper Brothers Mortuary LAUGHING THROUGH TEARS Gloom rather than gaiety was the dominating character of Jewish news last year. But from the mass of reports of suffering, tragedy ■ and sorrow there occasionally appeared ■ yarn that enabled the Jewish world momentarily to laugh through its tears. Some of the heartiest laughs were pro- voked by the story that the Joachim von Ribbentrop, Nazi envoy to London, and a notorious anti-Semite, found it neces- sary to allow • Jewish brain specialist to cure his young daughter. Similar grins spread over Jewish faces when it was disclosed that a number of blackshirt followers of Sir Oswald Mosley had been fed at the soup kitchen maintained for the Jewish poor in Manchester. The sh•dchen, long subject of merriment among Jews, again stirred good-natured raillery when a Canadian judge ruled that the Jewish mar. riage-broker was not an 'outworn anachronism but • positive benefactor of mankind who is entitled to be paid for his services. And loud was the glee of the Jews in Rumania as they watched two factions of anti-Semites battle each other in the streets of Bucharest, forgetting for the nonce their usual victims. The epidemic of strikes in America yielded • funny Jewish incident when • Jewish employer in Massa- chusetts picketed his own establishment so that one of his striking employes might have time to get • shave. Deeply concerned- over the political crisis, Palestinian Jewry still found a laugh in the sight of Jewish actors, singers and ar- tists, selling hot dogs on the streets of Tel Aviv to eke out a living. And the German Jews permitted themselves a few hushed chuckles when they learned that • sJewish film director had incorporated anti-Nazi scenes in a picture produced under the eyes of the Nazi film chiefs. 0 10400 MACK AVE.

At the same time the Journal of the Academy of Ger- man Law made public a decision by the supmere court barring Jewish charitable institutions from tax exemption. The decision was based on the theory that only such activities are charitable which are directed exclusively toward the support of German racial com- rades. Since the Nazis have no desire to facilitate the support of Jews, tax exemption is denied to their institutions. Non-Aryan Film Director Flees Reich When Goebbels Spots Anti-Nazi Satire Reinhold Schuenzel, Jewish film director who had been permitted to retain his job in Germany be- cause Hitler took a fancy to his work, left the Reich suddenly for parts unknown when Propaganda Minister Goebbels, dictator of the film world, caught on to a piece of anti-Nazi satire incorporated into the script of a film after it had won the approval of the Nazi censors. Enraged by the daring of Schuenzel, Goebbels or- dered the picture, "Land of Love." suppressed. The piece of satire takes a crack at the Nazis' stressing of physical development and control of literature. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. —Psalm 46:1.
