occupied by Germany ap-
rently not be hindered if the
Ps
relatives and friends of the pros-
pective emigrants will make their
migration to countries overseas
possible. This fact, although not
officially announced in Berlin or
in Warsaw, emerges as a prac-
tical possibility in the light of
the attitude of the German au-
thorities in Warsaw with regard
to the activities of the Jess-
Hiss office there. This office,
which had been closed in the
first several months following the
occupation of Warsaw, has, since
December, 1939, been permitted
to reopen as the Jeas-Hias office
and to resume its work.
Among the first activities of
Jeas-Hias has been the registra-
tion of Polish Jews who have
relatives or friends in the United
States and in Central and South
America. The information, thus
compiled, is contained in ques-
tionnaires or "tracers" which
are forwarded to the New York
headquarters of HIAS, the He-
brew Sheltering and Immigrant
Aid Society.
Examples taken at random
from the huge file of tracers
recently received from Warsaw
included the following:
C. B. of Detroit is informed
by B. S., daughter, that "hus-
band died. Petitioner and child
now in Mlawa. Both are well.
Requests support."
The tracers also bring glad
tidings in some cases.

Jewish Interpretation
Of Marriage Problems

Dr. Sidney E. Goldstein, as-
sociate rabbi of the Free Syna-
gogue, New York, has written
an exceedingly interesting inter-
pretation of Jewish marriage cus-
toms and problems under the
title "The Meaning of Marriage
and the Foundations of the
Family."
Rabbi Goldstein, who is pro-
fessor of social service at the
Jewish Institute of Religion and
chairman of the committee on
marriage, the family and the
home of the Central Conference
of American Rabbis, presents an
interesting evaluation of the sub-
ject. He deals with current and
acute problems and provides in-
valuable feip to rabbis, teachers
and laymen in this interesting
little book of 112 pages which
was published by Bloch Publish-
ing Co., 31 W. 31st St., New
York, and sells for 50 cents.
It stands to reason, of course,
that this book has great value
to every couple about to marry
as well as to others, and espe-
cially to study groups. Among
the topics discused are the fol-
lowing: Crisis in Marriage and
the Family; The Meaning of Mar-
riage; Preparation and Predic-
tion; Laws and Ceremonies; In-
come and Expenditures; Health
and Heredity; Common Interests
and Comradeship; Truth and
Trust; Chastity and Fidelity;
Birth Control; Education; Train-
ing; Discipline; The Organiza-
tion of the Family; Intermar-
riage, Divorce; The Function of
the Family; Selected Readings.
The author, who has devoted
many years of study to this vital
subject, is a graduate of the Uni-
versity of Cincinnati and of
Hebrew Union College. He has
done graduate work in the social
sciences at both of these institu-
tions.
Dr. Goldstein has lectured on
social questions in many colleges
and forums throughout the
United States, and is the author
of a number of books and pam-
phlets dealing with the family,
economic organization, and the
political order.
