Louisville went over the top with
$108,000 this year against $43,-

"Dallas reports its biggest in-
creases this year have occurred

Analysis of Results
In an analysis of the results
achieved to date by Jewish com-
munities throughout the country,
the Council of Jewish Federations
and Welfare Funds reports that
:gist standards of giving are no
longer being used. The analysis
was sent to Abe Srere, president
of the Jewish Welfare Federation,
which sponsors the local cam-
paign.
Outlining the information con-
tained in the report, Mr. Srere
said: "People in all communities
are beginning to realize that gifts
should be subscribed in proportion
to their capital, their income
and their personal expenditures.
It is generally agreed that the
man whose income is not large,
but whose capital is substantial,
should give of his capital, and the
standard set by the most gener-
ous should be the guide for the
giving of others. Where the com-
munity is comparatively new,
contributors must look to the
standard of giving set in older
and larger Jewish communities.
"Each Detroiter must consider
the increased gravity of the refu-
gee problem and the unprece-
dented magnitude of the challenge
to the Jews in America," con-
tinued Mr. Srere. "Ile must re-
alize that $3 out of every $4 sub-
scribed to the local Allied Jewish
Campaign will be allocated to
the United Jewish Appeal, which
supports the programs of the
three major American agencies
dealing with the problems of re-
lief and reconstruction in Euro-
pean lands, immigration and set-
tlement in Palestine and refugee
adjustment in the United States.
He must understand also that our
necessary continuing local and
national programs must be main-
tained and will be supported
through the drive."
Pre-Campaign and Executive
Committee solicitation for sub-
scriptions in the upper brackets
will be conducted during the next
three weeks and should be com-
pleted before the opening of the
campaign proper on May 7.

THE BIRTH OF A NATION
(CONCLUDED FROM PAGE ONE)
describes "the path of collec-
tive effort" which has succeeded
in Palestine as nowhere else on
earth. It is the story of the re-
demption of a plot of land which
was considered by the Arabs as
cursed by the prophet never to
produce again and as being the
"naked branch" that will never
blossom forth again. At the hands
of the Jew it did bring fruit..
Harthern'a "Home At Last"
continues this epic story, but it
shows how young Jews to whom
the very term Judaism was strange
suddenly became the champions
of the new life in the flew Ju-
dea and helped to make this life
a blessing and a source of pride.
"Home at Last" is a novel by a
Danish writer who has already
written an introductory novel
dealing with life in Palestine un-
der the title "Going Home." In
the present one the stranger finds
himself at home at last and trans-
lates the dishonor attempted by
the Nazis into honor self made by
the Jews.
The hero of this novel is a
young man, Simon Andermann•
who comes to Palestine after
tragic experiences in a concen-
tration camp. He did not even
know he was a Jew. He had just
learned that he had some Jewish
blood in his veins. He seeks to
find himself somewhere. His first
experience in Palestine is to find
a yellow circle on his German-
made trunk. He drops trunk and
contents and refuses to accept a
It
symbol implanted upon him by
Nazi enemies. Ile begins a period
of experiences in Jewish colonies
and step by step becomes assimil-
ated within the framework of the
new land that is the symbol of
Jewish survival as well as Jewish
revival.
One other hero, the man \Var-
muth, who is the first to net
him upon his arrival in Palestine,
is another symbol of this survival
of Jewish life and Jewish hope.
When, towards the end of the
story which ends tragically for
the young hero, both Andermann
and Warmuth assign all their
possessions to the Jewish National
Fund, to become the property of
the Jewish people, it is proof that
both had finally found themselves,
and that they had become part of
the people Israel and the land
Israel.
The novel ends with the period
that marked the beginning of u•-
rorism in the Jewish National
Home, but it does not indicate
the end of life. On the contrary,
Simon Andermann's bride. the
non-Jewess who turned Jewess,
carries under her heart his child
who is destined to continue the
process of national regeneration
and to carry on the race. From
beginning to end the story is
proof of the undying fete of the
Jewish people.
As already indicated. Sholem
Asch'a and Ernest Harthern's
novels are complimentary. They
form an important chapter in the
history of the birth of the New
Judea.
