The Successful Campaign
rz
Workers in the Allied Jewish Campaign
have reason to be proud of the results they
have achieved. It was a great and a highly
successful drive. It not only broke all pre-
vious records in fund-raising in Detroit,
but it reached new heights in enthusiasm
and in devotion to Jewish causes.
Three months ago practically all the
leaders of the drive would have predicted
that the campaign would fall 15 to 20 per
cent short of the goal. The fact that almost
the entire quota has been subscribed is a
tribute to the Jews of Detroit and to the
devotion with which they participated in
this important effort.
The satisfactory result of the drive,
while it does not compare with the tri-
umphs in San Francisco, Cleveland and
other communities where the quotas were
oversubscribed, is directly attributable to
the efforts of the men and women who
solicited the donors in the lower brqckets.
The fact that approximately 2,500 more
contributors were enlisted this year than
last is evidence of a hard job well done.
To Fred M. Butzel must go the major
portion of the credit that is being awarded
for able leadership in the campaign. As
general chairman of the drive he inspired
the workers with courage and with enthu-
siasm. His very conservatism was a great
asset in a drive that needed conviction and
not ballyhoo—and it is the conviction of
the workers that carried the campaign to
success. Behind the scenes, Isidore Sobel-
off; the executive director of the Federa-
tion, ably directed the campaign machin-
ery and helped to keep it working smooth-
ly during this splendid fund-raising pro-
ject. ,
In the Interest of Peace
In thb interest of peace and unity, the
administrative committee of the American
Jewish Congress has excluded from the
popular referendum the four original
questions dealing with Jewish State, the
boycott, the democratization of Jewish
communities and the unification of all Jew-
ish forces and has instead adopted one
question upon which American Jews will
be called upon to vote on June 25, 26 and
27. The referendum will instead be con-
ducted on the following question:
Do you favor a Union of all Ameri-
can Jewish groups engaged in safe-
guarding the equal rights of Jews,
which shall undertake to create for
the defense of such rights a single,
all-inclusive agency, organized on a
democratic representative basis, in ac-
cordance with American ideals?
There is a faction in American Jewish
life whose ideology is that it is not neces-
sary to unify all forces; that true democ-
. racy provides for every group to exist and
to express an opinion and to act in its own
behalf. This faction has a perfect right
to enter into the discussion, to propagate
defeat of this question by a majority of
the Jews of this country and to retain the
status quo in the conduct of Jewish af-
fairs. But the reality of the recurrent de-
mand for unity must not be overlooked,
and therefore free and calm discussion of
this question is in order.
The fact to be remembered is that there
is duplication of effort in the work for de-
fense of Jewish rights; that there are ex-
isting agencies each of which conducts its
own offices, has its owwiesearch bureaus,
: carries on its own prOaganda work, send
its own commissions to negotiate with gov-
ernmental agencies. Too often, as a result
of such action, non-Jews dismiss our peti-
tions with shrugs of their shoulders and
with the comments, "If Jews themselves
can't agree or} what they want, why should
we be bothered about them?" At the same
time, there is a waste of money and en-

"I would go into my library," Freud re-
plied, and Wells insisted that he leave
Austria he is reported to have said: " No,
I will not leave my country. If the Nazis
come, and if they offer me physical vio-
lence, I shall kill myself. Otherwise, I
shall stay in my library."
There is nothing left of Dr. Freud's li-
brary. It is said that many of his valuable
manuscripts have been confiscated or de-
stroyed, that Nazis were ruthless in the
search of his home. But Freud lives. Ile
has not killed himself. He is going to Eng-
land. Ile has packed trunks and has as-
sumed the role of an exile. As one of the
People of Exiles his life story will be re-
corded as part of the history of Jewry
which does not commit suicide but which
always survives its tormentors.
