The cause of the American
Friends of Jewish Palestine is
being advanced in Detroit this
week by Aryeh Ben Eliezer, Pal-
estinian youth leader who has
aided in Aliyah Beth immigra-
tion work during the past two
years.
Pointing out that immigration
is the most important need in
world Jewry today, Mr. Ben
Elizer described his experiences
as an intermediary between ref-
ugees and steamship companies
in efforts to settle large num-
bers in Palestine, and declared
that his organization succeeded
in getting into Palestine many

A

thousands who would otherwise
have been stranded in lands of
oppression.
The spokesman for the Amer-
ican Friends of Jewry Palestine
states that he was compelled to
come to this country to ask for
funds because of the increased
needs for enlarging immigration
facilities and of getting those
who have no visas into the coun-
try.
Mr. Ben Eliezer will visit in-
dividuals and organizations dur-
ing his two-week stay in Detroit.
He can be reached in care of

YEAR - OLD AMERICAN
GIRL EXPOSES NAZI HORRORS

12 -

To 12-year-old Patsy Ziemer,
American girl who lived for more
than six years under the threat
of the Hitler terror, goes the
credit for having written one of
the most effective revelations of
Nazism on record.
Her story is recorded in "Two
Thousand and Ten Days of Hit-
le•," a new and most effective
Harper publication. It is a fasci-
nating narrative, and it is espe-
cially striking because the life
in Germany from the time of
the rise to power of the Nazi
party up to the outbreak of the
war is described from the view-
point of a child.
What makes this story par-
ticularly valuable is the mass of
factual material introduced by
Patsy's father who explains the
different occurrences in brackets
after his daughter had told the
story.
The story begins with Patsy's
first fear—in April, 1932—when
she was frightened by the jani-
tor's boy who was dressed in a
Hitler youth uniform and threat-
ened the Americans whom he

charged with being Jews. Then
she asked her question "Who is
Hitler?" and from that point
began a multitude of experi-
en -es.
Mr. Ziemer conducted an
American school in Berlin and
Mrs. Ziemer had appeared on
the concert stage. Little Patsy
had traveled in many lands with
them and is an observant child.
Her power to observe is reflect-
ed in her book, which would be
a credit to a writer three times
her age. She tells how she wit-
nessed the removal of the first
body from the chancellery after
the famous Hitler purge, the var-
ious parades and demonstrations,
the April 1, 1933, boycott, and
finally the horror-inspiring days
of November, 1938, when Jew-
ish homes were plundered, Jews
sent to concentration camps,
synagogues burned. The latter is
described in touching terms suf-
ficient to move the most hard-
hearted to tears. Patsy Ziemer's
story is brought up to date by
her description of their arrival
in this country and the remarks
in New Jersey by a state police-
man that he was surprised they
had returned since it is better
in Germany. Mrs. Ziemer flared
up at him and expressed natural
resentment. There is warning in
this experience with a Nazi-influ-
enced policeman that the fifth
column is at work in this coun-
try, just as it had worked in the
Scandinavian lands. On this
score, just as in her revelations
of Nazism, Patsy Ziemer has
rendered a service with her
book.
"Two Thousand and Ten
Days of Hitler" should be read
widely. It ought to be placed
in the hands of every Christian
Frontist, and a copy of it should
be sent to Father Coughlin as
the best warning that if his de-
structive program is ever en-
forced his church as well as the
Jews and the ideals of Ameri-
canism will be doomed. Patsy
Ziemer's book is a most ef-
fective warning against the dan-
gers of Nazism to the freedom
of mankind.

the similar attack upon and in-
vasion of Poland.
Julien Bryan, brilliant photo-
grapher, correspondent and lec-
turer, had the rare privilege of
being in Poland during the siege
upon the land. He was in a
most dangerous position, since he
had been considered a marked
man among Nazis in view of his
attacks, on the American lec-
ture platform, upon Hitlerism.
But he was destined to render
a service to the cause of truth,
and he has been fortunate in not
only taking his pictures, in broad-
casting to the world his exper-
iences and in describing his ex-
periences in illustrated lectures,
but also in recording his reac-
tions in a striking book—"Siege"
—which has been published by
Doubleday, Doran & Co., 111
8th Ave., New York.
"Siege" is half pictorial half
story. It is a touching tale of
horror, of Nazi attacks upon in-
nocent civilizations, of the bomb-
ing of civilian trains, of utter
destruction of Warsaw to which
Mr. Bryan was an eye-witness.
Maurice Hindus, himself fa-
mous as lecturer, traveler and
authority on European affairs,
has written the introduction to
"Siege" and the captions to the
pictures. Mr. Hindus rightly
points out that Bryan's pictures
are more eloquent than words,
that they movingly express the
inward drama of human beings,
and that they recreate a moment-
ous chapter in the history and
drama of our times.
Mr. Bryan's story is told dis-
passionately. It is a factual day
by day record of his stay in
Warsaw. Nevertheless, it is a
strong indictment of the Nazi
methods of destruction. The only
complimentary reference is to
A purpose underlies character, the Nazis' declaration of a three-
culture, position, attainment of hour truce so that the neutral's
every sort.—Munger.

Fifth a
Ave., New York, to combat racial
and religious intolerance, devotes
the leading space in its April
issue to an article entitled,
"Catholics, Jews, Negroes, Labor
vs. the Klan Hates Them All."
Groups against which the
hooded order of 1940 directs its
hatred are listed as 21,000,000
Catholics, 12,000,000 Negroes, 4 ;
000,000 Jews, 14,000,000 foreign.

lies, a large part of the 27,500 ;
000 New Deal voters of 1936,
1,500,000 Mexicans, several hun-
dred thousand Orientals, and
"the great forward-moving surge
in American Protestantism that
looks to high social goals and has
been a great formative influence
in America's democratic tradi-
tions. Allowing for overlapping,
the Klan still "hates a big major.
ity of the American people," it
is charged, and forges ahead only
to the exten it can "dived and
rule."
The article, prepared by Harold
Coy, Equality's managing editor,
documents numerous instances of
alleged Klan outrages in recent
months against Catholics, Jews,
Negroes, labor unions, and the
foreign-born.
A strong anti-Catholic line has
been followed by the Klan since
the ascendancy of the new Im-
perial Wizard, stocky 42-year-old
James Arnold Colescott of Terre
Haute, Ind., the article asserts.
The article says that Father
Coughlin and the Christian Front
agree with the Klan on secular
issues, and must share the blame
for a situation in which the reli-
gion of 21,000,000 Amercian Cath-
olics is subjected to unscrupulous
attacks for selfish ends.
Anti-Semitic demonstrations by
the Klan in Mattituck, N. Y., and
Roselle, N. ,L, are documented,
and examples of the use of
threadbare propoganda a b o u . t
"Jewish financial and commercial
monopoly" are quoted. Numerous
tie-ups between the Klan and
leading figures in the German-
American Bund are cited tocoun-
ter the hooded order's claim to
a monopoly of Americanism.
In the South, the article de-
clares, much of the Klan's en-
ergy is devoted to trying to keep
Negroes from registering and
voting and mill workers from
joining unions.

country and to get back to

bold colors the horror of war,
the menace of Nazism and the

TO THE JEWS
OF DETROIT--

The Vaad Hakashruth takes this means
of warning the Jewish public to beware in
buying products which arc ostensibly "Kosher
Shel Pesach" for Passover.

Unless the products you buy carry a
Kosher seal sanctioned by an authorized Rabbi,
they are NOT kosher for Passover. Insist upon
the endorsement of the Vaad Harabonim of
Detroit, as this is your only safeguard and
protection in matters pertaining to Kashruth.

In issuing this warning we ask the co-
operation of all local bakers and grocers not
to sell any Passover products that do not bear
the seal of the Vaad Harabonim.
