There is much that the world needs to
learn about Nazi Germany and the IIitler-
ite persecutions. Daily we learn addi-
tional facts about the dictatorial and op-
pressive methods of one of the most bru-
tal regimes known to history. Only the

Among the latest names to be included
in the inscriptions in the Golden Book of
the Jewish National Fund in Jerusalem is
that of Ben Leider, who died a martyr's
death fighting, as a flyer, in the Lincoln
Battalion for the cause of the Spanish
Loyalists. His parents sent the fund $100
for the inscription and thus perpetuated
his name in the famous record in Palestine
in which are inscribed the names of the
world's greatest men and women and the
names of those chosen by their families
and friends for such honors.
This tribute is significant. The young
man fought in the ranks of the anti-fas-
cists in Spain. His parents chose to sup-
port the Jewish liberation movement when
they sought means of honoring their son's
name. More than 300 years ago Spain ex-
pelled the Jews. Now, many young Jews
are fighting on the side of the liberals
against the forces of reaction which would,
if they succeed in gaining control of the
country, revert to inquisitional methods.
But on the Palestinian front there are
martyrs whose names will be speedily for-
gotten, but not their work. They, too, are
fighting against reaction. When the great
Palestinian monument is erected the world
will know their martyrdom. The histor-
ian will he in position to link Ben Leider's
parents' generosity with their son's mar-
