Among the deans, presidents, heads of departments of colleges, universities, professional schnols, who signed this appeal are: Prof. Robert C. Angell, University of Michigan; Prof. Ernest M.

Wygarden, Michigan State College, French Plea for Polish Jaws PARIS. — The committee for the Defense of the Rights of Jews in Central and Eastern Europe, of which Senator Justin Godart is president, issued an appeal to Polish public opinion over the sig- natures of 24 French political, intellectual and religious leaders calling upon the intellectuals and the clergy of Poland to bring to an end the persecutions and pogroms to which Polish Jews are being subjected. Calling the present situation of the Jews in Poland "intolerable," the committee asked for an equit- able settlement of the Jewish problems of the country and for the establishment of a regime of equality of civic rights which Po- land has guaranteed in interna- tional treaties. Distinguished Signers The appeal was signed by Dep- uty Maxence Bibie, Senator Aime Berthod, Henri Bergson, the Phil- osopher; General Brissaud-Des- maillet, Maurice Bene, vice-presi- dent of the Radical Socialist party; Madeleine Coulon, general secretary of the committee; Sen- ator Maurice Dormann, Paul Devinat, Professor Paul Faucon- net of the Sorbonne.

M. C. A.; Dr. Charles Laubry, Prof. Lucien Levy-Bruhl, • Pierre May, Prof. Jean Perrin, Nobel Prize winner; Deputy Ernest Pezet, General Vi- dal, Prof. Wautier tl'Aigalliers and Dr. Leon Zadoc-Kahn. The appeal recalled that more than a century ago Lafayette was honorary president of a commit- tee of Polish exiles in France that was set up to prepare for the attainment of equality of rights and duties for Polish Jews, and declared: "Nowadays the anti-Semitic agi- tators have succeeded in provok- ing several pogroms upon the noble soil of Poland, always tol- erant toward the minorities which dwell upon it, and have organized a pitiless boycott of Polish Jew- ish citizens, seeking to deprive them of the means of existence, and engendering terrible misery which spares neither children nor the aged. Third Reich Called Brutal "Our conscience compels us to launch a very heartfelt appeal to our Polish friends and to call upon them to be vigilant and fight against this criminal propaganda." Reviewing the contributions of the Jews during their 1,000-year history in Poland, the appeal hits at trouble makers who are wedded to "a brutal Pan-German and anti- Semitic ideology, even when their partisan feelings are not favor- able to the Third Reich," and continues: "The civic rights of national and religious minorities in Po- land are an integral part of the treaties which restored life to Poland. "The situation of the Jewish masses in Poland at the present time is a tragic one. We call to their aid the conscience of the country, the intellectuals and the clergy. Let it not be forgotten that the barbarous attacks which the Old Testament and the Jews suffered in Germany were very soon changed into attacks acainst the Catholic Church and the Gos- pel. "The solution of the Jewish problem in Poland is perfectly capable of realization. There is a strong movement for a more up-to-date distribution of the Jews among the different professions. Craftsmanship and even agricul- ture gain in importance at the expense of trade. The terrible Practice of excluding Jews from most of the branches of the na- tional economy must be brought to an end." American Teachers Protest Po. lish Ghetto Benches CHICAGO (WNS) — Jerome Davis, president of the American Federation of Teachers, has made public here a letter addressed to the Polish minister of education, Eugene Swietoslaski, protesting against the institution of ghetto benches in Poland's colleges and universities.

We cannot believe that the Polish government will defy the public sentiment of the world and continue this policy. As Ameri- can teachers we have been shock- ed beyond measure to hear that such outrageous regulations have been introduced. We should be very grateful to hear from you that these measures have been repealed." Defy Violence and Expulsion WARSAW (WNS) — Defying violence and expulsion, Jewish students throughout Poland are standing firm in their refusal to occupy the ghetto benches to which they have been assigned in all the colleges and universities. it was disclosed in a survey just published in the Jewish press. Risking bodily harm. as in Lem- berg University where 30 Jewish students were beaten up when they tried to break through na- tionalist pickets, or expulsion, as in the Warsaw Engineering Col- lege, where 13 Jews have been expelled and other threatened with similar punishment for re- fusing to occupy the ghetto benches, the Jewish students con- tinue to stand up in class and lecture rooms. Their resistance is being encouraged by the con- tinued hope that the discrimina- tory rulings will yet be lifted. The first accident on the War- saw-Palestine airline brought death to three Jewish passengers and three members of the crew when a LOT airliner was found wrecked by fire in the Piryn Mountains of Bulgaria. The pas- sengers were Dr. Freiman, an Austrian named Neugrassel and M. Rakowski, a Palestinipn indus- trialist. Streicher Teaches Danzig Nazis How to Deal With Jews DANZIG (WNS) — While officials of the Joint Distribution Committee are studying the plight of Danzig Jewry and the possi- bility of emigrating all of them, Julius Streicher, Germany's high- priest of anti-Semitism, arrived in the city to explain to Nazi leaders how to apply the Nurem- berg anti-Jewish laws. Address- Mg a conference of Nazi function- aries, Streicher declared that "all Jews of whatever nationality are Germany's enemies." Boasting that Nazism's ideas about the Jews are spreading over the world, Streicher promised that Polish Jews in Danzig will be treated as Jews and not as Poles. Meanwhile arrests of Jewish busi- ness men and expropriation of their property continued, the lat- est victim being Emmanuel Loew, owner of a biscuit factory, whose business was taken over by an Aryan. 1,000 WILL ATTEND HADASSAH'S AFFAIR COUNCIL SELECTS TWO COMMITTEES (CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE) committee on discrimination in employment.

On the basis of its findings, the committee on discrimination has provided the necessary ma- chinery for receiving complaints. Specific complaints of discrimina- tion in employment or in occu- pancy should be filed with Wil- liam I. Boxerman, executive di- rector of the council, at 51 W. Warren Ave., room 308. The complainant will be interviewed carefully and he must come pre- pared to give full and detailed information, which will be kept in the strictest confidence. Each complaint will then be turned over to the committee for con- sideration. Complainants are urged to exercise the greatest caution in the submission of in- formation. Much damage can be done and much created by lodging complaints which have no basis in fact, thus making it diffi- cult for the committee to ap- proach employers and landlords with legitimate claims.
