Honors for Dr. Franklin
Dr. Leo M. Franklin's 40th Anniversary
in Detroit is an occasion for nationwide
interest. The prominent national leaders
who are here to pay him honor this week-
end, and the spokesmen for the non-Jew-
ish as well as the Jewish groups who will
participate in the program on Sunday eve-
ning, are evidence of the esteem in which
he is being held.
In a sense this week-end's gatherings
are merely an occasion for reviewing Dr.
Franklin's accomplishments. Throughout
his ministry here the community—non-
Jewish as well as Jewish—knew how to
respect him and how to appreciate the
vitality that marked his participation in
important civic and religious movements.
His membership on the Library Com-
mission is a mark of recognition by the
City of Detroit.
The honorary degree given him by the
University of Detroit is a sign of respect
for the courage with which he fought
against a state measure that would have
closed the parochial schools.
He has been honored by having his
name inscribed in the Golden Book of the
Jewish National Fund in Palestine.
He is now being honored even more im-
pressively by the planting of the Leo M.
Franklin Garden in Palestine.
His alma mater, Hebrew Union College,
and the Union of American Hebrew Con-
gregations, have paid him deserved trib-
ute.
Once again we record our good wishes
to Rabbi Franklin, and to Mrs. Praklin,
with the hope that they will be blessed
with very many more years in which to
serve this community and to share in its
blessings.

3, resurrected the bones of Woodrow Wil-
son for a vicious attack. The following
Sunday Father Coughlin similarly resorted
to Nazi tactics in assailing a man who is
no, longer among the living. Now comes
one of the lesser among the anti-Semitic
fry with a similar attack but with material
apparently coming from the same source
that feeds all anti-Semites.
The tie-up between the anti-Semites of
this country with those in Germany is no
longer in doubt. There is a worldwide chain
which binds all bigots. It is a chain to be
reckoned with, lest the minds of men and
women who are fair and who are sincerely
seeking the truth should be poisoned.
There is a tie-up even between the Arab
terrorists in Palestine and the Nazis in
Germany, and the spokesmen for the Arab
vandals in this country apparently take
delight in writing epistles also to Father
Coughlin's periodical.
While on general principles the attitude
of these anti-Semites should be treated
with contempt, it can not be completely
ignored. The uninformed must be told of
the influence of Nazi ideology upon some
Americans who would not hesitate to bring
the menace of Hitlerism to this country.
In her addresses to Detroit audiences,
Mme. Harand, the eminent Catholic philo-
Semite who is an exile from Austria, ad-
vocated a campaign of education and
counter-propaganda against anti-Semitism
and every threat to democracy. It is a pro-
gram which we have advocated for years
and in consonance with which we urged
that for every dollar spent for relief five
or ten dollars be spent for defense.
This is the time to launch such a pro-
gram in defense of democracy, which is in
the long run a defense of Jewish rights.
Activities by men like Allen Zoll and his
cohorts, among whom is the Rev. Coughlin
of Royal Oak, must be revealed to the
country at large, since the truth is the
most effective weapon against anti-Semites
and bigots.

PURELY COMMENTARY
Py PHILIP SLOMOVITZ
W. K. Kelsey Analyzes Nazism
to the New York Sun by a Brooklyn reader and
is quoted by Mr. Lore as follows:
"A Dutchman was dining in the restaurant
car of • Germa n train. The waiter approached
with the usual 'Heil Hitler r The Dutchman
made no reply. The waiter was annoyed.
'Every time I say "Heil Hitler" to you,' he
snapped, 'you must say "Heil Hitler" to me.'
'Hitler? He doesn't mean a thing to us in
Holland,' remarked the Dutchman, 'Maybe
not,' said the waiter, 'but one day you'll get
our Fuehrer in Holland, too.' Perhaps so,'
smiled the Dutchman. 'We already have your
Kaiser.'"
The moral is that Dutchmen, being free, retain
the right to freedom of speech; the German, being
'hackled, has no way of letting us know how much
he finds "to his taste" in the Nazi creations. There-
fore, we most conclude even on this score that
painting the Germans as satisfied with occurrences
in Germany are the conclusions only of The Corn-
nientator of the Detroit News.
•
In his analyses of Nazi "achievements" for Ger-
many, W. K. Kelsey, The Commentator of the
Detroit News, has been drawing the line between
what he believes to be beneficial for the Germans
and how similar applications of Nazi theories might
work in other lands. In his column in which he dis-
cussed Prof. James K. Pollock's "The Government
of Greater Germany," he set it down as his per-
sonal conclusions that the Nazis have done many
things "which the order-loving German must find
to his taste, such as the work of the National Office
for Organizing Space, the new Municipal Code,
and the Labor Front, which looks after social in-
surance, unemployment, welfare relief, and the
'Strength Through Joy' department."
Mr. Kelsey's views have to be dealt with seri-
ously, since there are many like him who are mis-
led by an apparent sense of satisfaction with Nazi
"achievements" within Germany. These people,
unfortunately, are not acquainted with the true
facts. Perhaps Mr. Kelsey himself is behind in his
reading. If he has followed reports from Germany
"He Won't Be with Us Long"
carefully he should know that the so-called six-
hour day in the five day Nazi working week has

Some Suggested Readings
Perhaps Mr. Kelsey will not object to a few sug-
gested titles for reading on the subject of Nazi
contributions to the life of the people of Ger-
many. Ile will find value in Kolnai's "The War
Against the West;" Stephen Roberts' "The House
That Hitler Built;" Robert A. Brady's "The Spirit
and Structure of German Fascism;" Erika Mann's
"School for Barbarians."
Or perhaps we should recommend to him Adolf
Hitler's "Mein Kampf." This Bible of the Nazis
is the best proof of the Ilitlerite aspirations, and
open-minded readers like Mr. Kelsey will know
how to judge from its contents the great values
"which the order-loving German must find to his
taste" as prescribed by the Fuehrer for the good
of Germany.
Our recommended readings are selected not
from the point of view of Jews but from the stand-
point of non-Jews who are concerned with the
welfare of men, women and children of all races
and creeds. Every author mentioned is non-Jewish;
every volume listed was written for general, not
for Jewish, consumption. We know the fairness
of Mr. Kelsey, and we are not as discouraged as
some of his readers. We are confident that he has
been misled only temporarily. A check-up on facts
will convince him that the Germans are not as
happy as he believes; that the "order-loving" Ger-
man people are beginning to show signs of dis-
content; that the present regime of the Reich has
survived only by inspiring horror (for proof, read
Nora Waln's serial "Reaching for the Stars" in
Atlantic Monthly, December 1938 through March
1939), and that it can not last much longer.

Even "order-loving" Germans can not be ne-
slaved indefinitely; therefore they will not for long
falsely assert, for the sake of their personal safety,
that all is well in Nazi-land. The end of Hitlerism
is near. This is our faith in the validity of human
freedom as guaranteed in the Magna Charta and
the Bill of rights.
