that the primary need of the
present moment is the strength-
ening of democracy, not only
at home but also abroad.
Mr. McNutt's Address
Mr. McNutt in his address paid
tribute to the moral courage of
the Jewish people which has not
wavered despite the terrible op-
pression to which the Jews have
been subjected in 3,000 years of
their history and now again in
Central and Eastern Europe. He
expressed the hope that while
the Jews have seen "mankind
temporarily defeated, humanity
in chains, barbarism and bestial-
ity prevail" "that reason and
righteousness would emerge again
triumphant t hroughout the
world."
Dr. Schieffelin in his address
urged America to strengthen de-
mocracy by helping within the
limits of neutrality those powers
which are fighting the enemies
of democracy in Europe. In this
connection he urged: "Today
England, despite her faults and
mistakes, is fighting against a
return to slavery in countries
where it has been banished for
centuries. This new slavery is
worse than the old, for it en-
chains not the body alone but
the mind and the soul. To help
England, France and their small
allies in this fight, to the limit
which our country's laws allows,
involves no such sacrifice for us
as did England's sympathy for
the North in the Civil War. For
our selfish national interest is
as much threatened by a Nazi
victory as our ideals.
Fannie Hurst's Address
Fannie Hurst declared that the
victimized Jewish people who
have been turned into refugees
"are a social, ethical and indus-
trial problem of the most press-
ing nature. The decency of the
world is being put to the test by
what that world does for these
victims of oppression. The rea-
sons why these thousands of vic-
tims of oppression are compelled
to seek migration is the eternal
shame which a contenporaneous
world, which for impotent years
has sat by and while deploring it,
has not united more actively
against it." In this connection
she said, "When thousands of

Tosia Mundstock and Group
Demonstrate Modern
Dance April 7

"The Modern Dance" will be
the topic of a lecture-demonstra-
tion by Tosia Mundstock and
her group, on April 7, at 3 p. m.,
in the Jewish Community Center
auditorium, Woodward at Hol-
brook. This will be the third of
a series of four lecture-demon-
strations on "The Dance" pre-
sented on the first Sunday of
each month by the Jewish Com-
munity Center, with the assist-
ance of the Center Dance Group.
Miss Mundstock will outline
the origin and development of
the modern dance. By lecture
and demonstration she will pre-
sent the approach of the lead-
ing artists in this field, such as
Mary Wigman, Hanya Holm,
Doris Humphrey, Charles Weid-
man and Martha Graham. The
demonstration will envelop their
techniques in a series of dances.

harassed, peace-and-home-loving
human beings are disposessed in
this fashion, their problems of
migration, transmigration, adapt-
ability, orientation, livelihood, ed-
ucation and future, simultane-
ously become the everlasting
shame of the countries which ex-
communicate them and the tre-
mendous problem of the decent-
thinking citizenry of the rest of
the world, which includes us."
Dr. Wise announced that the
Women's Division of the Ameri-
can Jewish Cora,ress, in coopera-
tion with the parent body, is now-
planning to send a shipload of
clothing to Jews now in the
territories of Poland occupied by
the Nazis. Clothing will be sent
via the International Red Cross
with whom arrangements have
been concluded for the admis-
sion of this clothing to Nazi
Poland.
Mrs. Catt's Address
Mrs. Catt charged that wars
are responsible for the refugees
from all sections of the world.
"The one hope in the situation,"
she asserted, "lies in the fact
that more people are at work at
this moment trying to make an
end of war than ever centuries
before."
"It is said," she declared,
"that we are growing a spirit of
anti-Semitism in this country.
There are two ways of dividing
this problem. If a Jew is denied
a job then the whole Jewish peo-
ple should rise and yell about it.
If the Jews notice race preju-
dice in the schools, it is not for
you to yell; it is up to the Gen-
tiles to rise up and yell. I think
and I have thought that if when
the trouble directed against the
Jews arose in Germany, if we
had all put our heads together
and had said to Germany: 'Per-
haps you have the right to send
out the Jews, but you have not
the right to rob them of their
possessions,' things might be
different today. But now when
an army is organized, it is too
late. We are always too late.
We ought to be ashamed of our-
selves."

Blue Goose Line Announces
Reductions in Bus Fares

Bus' fare reductions extending
to every Blue Goose division,
have been announced by P. L.
Radcliffe, General Manager of
Eastern Michigan Motorbusses,
operator of Blue Goose Lines.
The fare cut is the greatest in
the history of the company and
became effective on Monday,
March 25. The rate reduction is
in accordance with President
Roosevelt's proclaming 1940 as
"Travel America Year."
"Americans are going to be-
come better acquainted with
their own country as a result
of wars in Europe and the Ori-
ent, and as a means of stimulat-
ing travel we have slashed Blue
Goose bus fares and are passing
the savings along to our pat-
rons," said Mr. Radcliffe.
