Great Britain is about to embark upon
a destructive program of repudiating the
Balfour Declaration and of destroying the
hopes of the masses of Jews throughout
the world who look to Palestine as the
redeeming factor in their tragedies.
The voice of world Jewry should be
heard in protest against ouch nullification
of a sacred trust.
Voice YOUR protest at once!
Let every synagogue, every organiza-
tion, every individual join in mobilizing
special meetings, by participating in syna-
gogue services, by letting it be known
that the mandate to Jewry for Eretz
Israel comes not from Great Britain but
from a mightier Power.
Let it be known that THE BIBLE IS
OUR MANDATE.
"If I forget thee, 0 Jerusalem, may my
right hand wither" is once again the mot-
to of our people. The work for a Jewish

Congressman Hook—Liberal

When the infamous Hobbs Bill, now before the
Senate, came up for consideration, Congressman
Frank E. Hook of Ironwood, one of Michigan's
Demcratic Representatives in Congress, was among
the minority voting against it. Congressman Hook
delivered a convincing address pointing out that
this bill, which provides for the creation of de-
tention camps for aliens would lead to the Hitler-
ite method of forming concentration camps. Un-
fortunately the measure passed the House, 288-61.
But Congressman Hook was among the fighting
minority on the side of liberalism. Voting with
the minority were Congressmen Dingell, Lesinski
and Tenerowics of Detroit .
The pity is that the liberals, and incidentally
those who are not blinded by prejudice towards
aliens, are in the minority.
