Although in existence since 1896, the
Jewish War Veterans of the United States
have made the most rapid strides since
1933. During the past five years the or-
ganization has expanded phenomenally.
In the two years that Harry Schaffer has
served as its rational commander it has
become nationwide in scope, with posts
in 30 states ranging from Maine to Flor-
ida and from coast to coast. It now boasts
of a membership in excess of 25,000. Dur-
ing the past two years it created the first
Jewish youth patriotic movement, the Sons
of J. W. V., which has a membership of
8,000 boys organized in 115 units. Also
during Schaffer's administration J. W. V.
won recognition as a major veterans' or-
ganization, enjoying the fullest co-opera-
tion of the American Legion, the Veterans
of Foreign Wars and the Disabled Ameri-
can Veterans.
When the veterans gather in Detroit
for the 43rd annual encampment from Sept.
2 to 5, they will be assuming a new and
important role in American Jewish life.
They are bidding, with considerable justi-
fication, for recognition as an outstanding
national organization. They speak in the
name of 250,000 veterans who fought in
the World War, the Spanish-American
War, the Fillipino insurrection and the
Mexican border campaigns. Their gath-
ering here is a demonstration of American
Jewish patriotism and of active participa-
tion by American Jews in **life of this
country.
Jews and non-Jews will welcome the
veterans, and fair-minded people will
recognize and admit that there is not a
single activity of a national American na-
ture in which Jews do not participate.
We welcome the veterans to Detroit and
wish them success in their deliberations.

An Important Anniversary ;

In the early autumn, the Jewish Publi-
cation Society of America will observe its
60th anniversary with celebrations that
are already being planned pot only in
Philadelphia, where the headquarters of
the society are located, but also in numer-
ous cities throughout the country.
This event is of sufficient importance to
the Jews of America to make the occasion
a national celebration. The Jewish Publi-
cation Society is the movement directly
responsible for the printing of the monu-
mental "History of the Jews" by Heinrich
Graetz, the translation of the Bible by
a group of our outstanding scholars, "The
Legends of the Jews" by Dr. Louis Ginz-
burg, translation from the Yiddish of some
of the best classics, the publication of the
collected works of Israel Zangwill, the
Schiff Classics as well as numerous other
important literary products.
The listing of the complete works issued
by this society would reveal at a glance
that the celebration of its 50th anniversary
is not an event of importance for tpe Jews
of America alone but for world Jewry, and
more especially for the English-speaking
Jewries, since Jewish culture has been
greatly enriched in the course of 50 years
of publishing activities.
It is a source of regret that the Jewish
Publication Society's membership is so
limited; that it can not boast of a member-
ship of 100,000 or more rather than the
15,000 or less who are now on the rolls
of the organization. It is a pity that De-
troit should have less than 100 members
when we should have 1,000 or more. But
the current anniversary ought to be made
an occasion for the stimulation of a greater
interest in Jewish cultural matters and
for the enrolling of large numbers of Jews
as members in the society. The 50th anni-
versary of the Jewish Publication Society
should also be celebrated in Detroit; and
on that occasion every person who knows
the value of a Jewish book should enroll
as a member. A great cultural work will
thus be encouraged, and those who enroll
as members will at the same time receive
more than their money's worth in the form
of books released to members.
A word must be added here to give
credit to the executive secretary of the
Jewish Publication Society, Maurice Ja-
cobs, for having popularized the society
during the past three years. Mr. Jacobs
is a progressive executive who believes in
reaching the masses of the people and in
bringing the Jewish book to every Jewish
home. The policies he has instituted have
already brought splendid results, and the
membership of the society has increased
considerably thanks to his organizing abil-
ity. It is to be hoped that he will be given
the freedom to make his program so thor-
oughly workable that the Jewish Publica-
tion Society will become one of the most
important cultural factors in American
Jewish life.

.

Unlike 1936, when one could predict that
by October the Arab hostilities would cease
with the beginning of the orange shipping
season, in which Arabs are vastly interested,
this year the rebels apparently intend to ruin
the orange season and thereby force all Arabs
to join the rebellion. The present rebel lead-
en have not any particular interest in the
orange industry. Paralyzing this industry
means paralyzing the main economic activity
of the country, which is what the rebels ap-
parently aim to do. Unless all the Arabs
in Palestine feel the pressure of hunger the
revolt will not be complete, rebel leaders say.
While the Arabs are concentrating their
efforts more and more on an offensive cam-
paign of destruction and terrorism, Palestine
Jews also are carrying on activities. but of
an opposite character. They have organized
what they call the "Kofer Hayishuv"—Per-
sonal Redemption Fund—the purpose of which
is defensive: to collect money from Jews of
the larger colonies, enlist volunteers and help
protect smaller settlements by building barbed-
wire fences, watch towers and the like.
In Tel Aviv this week at all motion picture
houses a Jewish youth appeared on the stage
during intermissions dressed in blue working
shirt, baggy colorless trousers and dusty san-
dals. Ile announced that he came "from the
front" and spoke in behalf of the Kofer Ilayi-
shuv.
Collections were not made in the theaters
nor in a house-to-house solicitation. yet it is
reported that the Kofer llayishuv drive is a
huge success. Contributions are being taken
or sent directly to the fund's office—contribu-
tions of labor, money and jewelry, one unem-
ployed couple having brought their wedding
rings.
The Kofer llayisbuv does not make public
its achievements, but some of its activities
are known, When the safety of a colony is
jeopardized because of a bad road this fund
is financing the construction of a metal road.
One of the first settlements to benefit thus
was Ramat Ilakovesh, where Arab terrorists
have taken so many victims.

"Jewish press" engaging in
"atrocity stories," is sent to the
embassy of that country ... Our
informant also insists that Italy's
anti-Jewish campaign is traceable
to a cartoon attacking Mussolini
that appeared in a recent issue
of popular American magazine
owned by a Jew.
Germany pulled out of the New
York World's Fair a long time
ago, but the Nazi flag is still dis-
played on all festive occasions
from the fair's flag poles, together
with the emblems of other na-
tions ... The swastika flew from
two staffs at the Longwood Crick-
et Club while the German Davis
Cup team was playing there, but
two custodians were hired to see
that nothing happened to the Nazi
flag.
Is it true that certain New
York banks are permitting nets
of the German government to ex-
amine the bank accounts of Ger-
man Jews, and thus facilitating
their confiscation?

It is unfortunate that it has come to a
point demanding the creation of defense
organizations and the raising of defense
funds to provide protection for the Jews
in Palestine. But it is not of our own
making. It is not a condition that has
been created by the Jewish pioneers in
Palestine. It has been brought about by
Arab terrorism, and Jews are obligated
to defend themselves.
Jews will continue to adhere to the
policy of Havlaga—of restraint and of
refusal to retaliate against the Arabs. In-
nocent Arabs will not be made the victims
of attack by the Jewish pioneers and must
not be made to suffer for the wrongdoings
of their leaders. But let it never be said
that Jews refused to offer battle for their
existence and that they consented to die
in a state of helplessness.
The plans of the Arab terrorists as 're-
vealed by Mr. Levy in his cable to the New
York Times indicate that the masses in
Palestine are not in accord with the de-
structive policies of the leaders. It is to
be hoped that instead of leading to unity
in favor of terrorism, the Arabs will rebel
against the propagandists and will take
steps to bring about peace and security in
the land. Jews pray for peace and con-
tinue to bid for it—but not at the expense
of their national existence. The restora-
tion of peace is possible as soon as the
Arabs force an end to acts of terrorism
which affect their own masses as much as
the Jewish settlers.

Jews in India

A report from Madras, India, states that
the 200-year-old Jewish cemetery, which
the city council had ordered converted into
a park, has been saved as a result of a
protest by the Madras Jewish Association.
The report states that the order was origi-
nally given because the Jewish community
has been dwindling in recent years, and it
adds that one bf the graves dates back to
1701.
Of primary interest in this report is the
fact that Jews have lived for many years
in remote communities in the world, and
that our people are to be found every-
where. It is noteworthy especially at this
time that wherever there are Jews there
is proof that they have become an impor-
tant part of the general community and
have established traditions for existence
dating back hundreds—in some instances
a thousand or more—years. In the in-
stance of the Jewish community of India
it is a cemetery that provides proof that
Jews have been a part of the life of the
land for hundreds of years.

BEHIND THE SCENES

Now that Prof. Felix Frank-
furter is being talked of as a
likely appointee to the Supreme
Court vacancy created by Justice
Cardozo's death, it can be told
that he actually was offered the
appointment when Justice Van
Deventer resigned last year .. .
But Frankfurter declined, because
he would have been the third Jew
on the high bench ... That's the
appointment that went to Senator
Black . . . Our hunch is that
Frankfurter won't be offered the
post again unless Brandeis also
resigns.

unpopular but are considered detrimental to their
new environment by the children settled in Pales-
tine. "Rhea" becomes "Ruth," "Max" turns into
"Micha," "Brunhilde" blesses herself with a name
like "Brocha," and Biblical names that have be-
come extinct are revived again.
Self-respecting Jew's will not mourn over the
new decree on names. They will wear the yellow
badge with dignity. They will go back to tradi-
tion and will courageously so reconstruct their
lives as to make the name Jew and the philosophy
and ideology of Judaism symbols of honor and
respect.

The standard question will henceforth undoubt-

There are a few good names that are not in-

So his wife, Chana. But the sons are not: Gabriel

Maurice A. Enggass, co-
chairman of the collection com-
mittee of the Detroit Service
Group, the fund-raising arm
of the Jewish Welfare Federa-
tion, urges returning vacation-
ers to give first thought to the
payments due on their Allied
Jewish Campaign pledges. De-
fining regular payments as an
important part of the sacred
obligation subscribers to the
drive have incurred, Mr. Eng-
gess states:
"For us, who live ordered
lives, adequately provided for,
it is sometimes hard to picture
the plight of those of our own
people whose paths are more
difficult.
"Away on vacation we may
have forgotten for a time that
there is much unhappiness in
this-world. This is only natural.
But now that we are back at
our familiar tasks we must re-
member that one of them is an
obligation we have assumed, a
debt we owe. It is a sacred ob-
ligation—to share what we
have with those who have less
or nothing at all. An important
part of it consists in meeting
payments on our Allied Jewish
Campaign pledges regularly,
faithfully. I know I am appeal-
ing to an interested and atten-
tive community when I ask
that September installments of
subscriptions to the drive be
paid NOW."
