Will Your Home Be
Their Home?
If you are a home owner you
probably have to deal with a mort-
gage. Payments are fairly easy
to make now, but if you should
die before the mortgage is paid off, your dependents might
have a struggle to make the payments. For what is, in effect,
merely a slight increase in the interest rate you pay, you can
obtain a Great-West policy which will clear off the mortgage
for your family if the emergency Should ever arise.
Let me give you full particulars of this attractive plan.

part of wisdom to view it practically. The senti-
ment it expresses reflects a reaction in Jewish
ranks that is spreading rapidly. Jews desire action.
The masses of our people are sick and tired of
hearing their leaders say that the non-Jews are
speaking in condemnation of discriminations) by
Christians. The average Jew knobs by this time that
the Christians expect the Jews to fight for their
own rights. If we don't it will be interpreted in
some quarters as an admission of guilt. Self-
respect demands that such an impression should
not be given. Rabbi Schultz will have many ad-
herents to his views.

Jewish. Until now it was Nazism that strengthened
Jewish ties and made better Jews. Now it is the
church. Until now the churches vied with one
another for converts. Now, some churches, inspired
by Nazism, are competing for the right to ban
Jews.
In this respect the anti-Semites are most stupid.
The way of the past, when Christians wanted Jew-
ish ranks to dwindle, was to invite them to become
converts and to be nice to them under the bap-
tismal font. The modern anti-Semites only help
make better Jews .

Lutheran Evangelicals and the Jews
We renew the recommendation to our readers
and to all friends of democracy that they study
the Stackpole - English edition of Adolph Hitler's
"Mein Kampf" for an understanding of the
Nazi mind and for the realization of what the
Hitler regime aspires for.
Nora Wain, in her fictionized non-fiction book
"Reaching for the Stars," refers to columns of
letters that appeared in the London Times debat-
ing whether "Mein Kamp" has any importance
now, as it was written sonic years ago. Com-
menting on this she points out: "The able Propa-
ganda Minister misses nothing. He answered it
firmly with a statement radioed to the world:
'We go forward with the book in one hand and
the sword in the other.' "
For an understanding of what the Nazis aspire
for, "Mein Kampf" must be studied. It is like
getting at the root of a disease. You must find
the source, you must know the course it follows,
you must know how deadly the poison. Knowing
it all, it should be easier to fight the menace
of Hitleriam.
A report quoted by the International Christian
Press and Information Service of Geneva suites that
the Lutheran Evangelical Church in Saxony has
prohibited Jews from becoming members. Accord-
ing, to that church's press service, quoted from
Geneva, the bun is made in the following terms:

Much light is thrown on the
differences of opinion among
German Jews on the question of
Zionism and Palestine. It has been
said that the youth reproach their
elders for having become too as-
similated. Mrs. Kent's books deals
with this question. She relates
how parents implored her to in-
terest their children in English
life rather than in Palestine. In
one instance a father said about
his (laughter: "She wants to train
as a hospital nurse and go out
to Palestine, but she has been
too delicately brought up for that.
She could not stand the climate,
the semi-Oriental conditions. It
would break my heart to see her
go."
But the daughter pleads to be
understood. The author reminds
her of the hard life in Palestine,
"and you know what a lazy little
devil you are." To which came
the reply:
"I should not be lacy in Pal•
estine. There would be some•
thine to work for. I know ex•
actly how it would be in Eng-
land. Not as bad as it is now
in Germany, of course, but like
it used to be here. And that
is not good enough. We are fin-
ished with people who do not
really want us."
Mrs. Kent says that all her
young people were "ardent Zion-
ists, studying Hebrew with fer-
vor, and could only be cajoled
into applying themselves to Eng-
lish by the reminder that in Pal-
estine they would need English
as much as Hebrew. I soon came
to feel that whether they ever
went to Palestine or not their
' Zionist ideals ought to be en-
couraged as providing their only
interest in life."
"I married a German" is a
great human document. If it could
only be placed in the hands of
'those whose minds have been poi-
!soned by Nazi propaganda, the
.harm would be undone. This book
I should sell in the thousands. It
is wholesome material in the in-
terest of truth.
