ance of Jewish Book Week," a
booklet compiled by Dr. Eman-
uel Gamoran, educational direc-
tor of the Union of American

been issued by the Union. Dr.
Gamoran's booklet is divided into
two sections. The first deals with
hooka for children. Subdivisions
list books suitable for the dif-
ferent stages of youth, ranging
from the toddler to the 17-year-
old. Books for parents are in-
cluded in the second section of
the catalogue. Separated by sub-
ject, the books mentioned for
adults deal with the Bible, Jew-
ish History, Religion and Jewish

Jewish Publication Society An-
nounces 1939 Publications

In connection with the current
annual celebration of annual
Jewish Book Week, the Jewish
Publicatio Society is making
public its list of publications for
1939.
The first book to be released,
about May 20, will be the "Ship
of Hope," by Ruben Rothgiesser,
translated from the German by
Felix N. Gerson. This is a story
about 100 boys, children of a
Spanish-Jewish community, who
were driven from their native
city during the 15th century
persecutions, and who found
pitiable refuge near a city on
the coast of North Africa. They
are lured aboard a pirate cara-
vel by offers of food and are
taken away to be sold as slaves
in Egypt. The boys finally land
in Venice, and the Venetian Doge
sends three members of the Ve-
netian Jewish Community, in-
cluding Abravanel, to North Af-
rica to invite the entire commu-
nity to find homes and protection
under Venice. This book will
contain 160 pages, plus four full
page black and white illustra-
tions.

woman was killed and two Jew-

the moderate Arab Opposition
issued a manifesto denouncing
the terrorism that has engulfed
the Holy Land for the past three
years.
Released in Jaffa. the mani-
festo summarizes the results of
the three years of disturbances
and points out the complete
devastation that has overtaken
the Arab economy because of
terrorist activities. It emphasizes
the ruin of both the town and
the port of Jaffa, and denounces
the murder by Arab brigands of
their compatriots, including aged
women and children.
"Is this a struggle for free-
dom?" the Opposition asks dra-
matically, recounting the extor-
tion of money from the Arab
peasantry and townsfolk and the
general demoralization of the
Arab population, the majority of
which the Opposition believes is
law-abiding, helping the brigands
only through fear.

Nazareth and raged through the
town for three hours, pillaging,
arsoning and cutting telephone

killed by the gang, and the Dis-

were burned. The military, en-

manship of Fred Butzel and Henry Wineman; the Pre-Campaign and
Executive Committees Continue Their Solicitations

Detroit's most pressing emergency appeal to aid refugees abroad, to provide relief for victims of oppression
in Central and Eastern Europe, to promote settlement in Palestine and other immigration efforts, and to provide
means for the continued functioning of the important local agencies will officially commence this Sunday evening,
with a dinner at Hotel Statler at which the principal speaker will be Dr. Manfred Arie, noted Viennese jurist .
Although pre-campaign solicitations have been in progress for two weeks, the success of the present unprece-
dented drive for the largest quota in the history of relief drives in Detroit depends upon the response that will
be given during the next two weeks, in the course of which more than a thousand workers will comb the community
for support of the Allied Jewish Campaign.
Workers will meet daily at luncheons at Hotel Statler, and outstanding non-Jewish as well as Jewish per-
sonalities will address the gatherings. The speakers at the luncheon meetings this week will include the following:
•
Monday, Marvin Lowenthal, eminent author and
lecturer; Tuesday, Dr. Walton E. Cole, pastor of the
Unitarian Church of Toledo, who has done effective work
in combatting Coughlinism over the radio 'and in other
public addresses; Wednesday, Miss Freda Kirchwey,
managing editor of the Nation; Thursday, Henry Mon-
tor, national director of the United Jewish Appeal; Fri-
day, Alexander L. Easterman, one of Europe's most
distinguished writers and commentators.

PROMINENT LEADERS TO ADDRESS
MEETINGS OF CAMPAIGN WORKERS

Among the speakers who will address luncheon meetings during
the following week will be Arthur L. Lamport, national treasurer
of the United Jewish Appeal; Judge Morris Rothenberg, co-chair-
man of the United Jewish Appeal, and other outstanding leaders.

League for Industrial Democracy Initiates Nationwide
Campaign in 30 Cities and Over 120 Colleges;
Important Brochure Initiates Drive

The League for Induttrial De-
mocracy announces the opening
of a nation-wide campaign of
popular education to combat ra-
cial prejudice due to "increased
Nazi and Fascist activity in the
United States." The League is
launching its educational drive
following a survey of conditions
in all sections of the United
States carried on by its repre-
sentatives in 30 cities and on
over 120 college campuses.
A national committee consist-
ing of educators and civic lead-
ers will participate in the educa-
tionalproject for "counteracting
the propaganda which deliber-
ately exaggerates the extent of
immigration into the United
States of the refugees from
dictator-ridden countries abroad.
The League's investigations show
that fascist activity is being car-
ried on by many allegedly patri-
otic organizations which,
by
spreading fats? information, aim
to incite the anger of the unem-
ployed and the economically in-
secure against the refugees from
Nazism and Fascism."

"The Jewish Refugee Prob-
lem," by Bruce Bliven, editor of
the New Republic, and "The
Egregious Gentile Called to Ac-
count" by Grover C. Hall, editor
of the Montgomery. Ala., Adver-

tional distribution "to initiate the
