NEW CITIZENS
"It will be their responsobility
and their duty always to think
first of America and at the same
time to think in terms of human-
ity. This nation was created to
insure the things that unite and
to eliminate the things that di-
vide. It will continue to be a
land of opportunity for native-
bo•n and foreign-born citizens.
It will continue to offer them the
hope, liberty and justice which
have always prevailed in this
great democracy of ours.
AWNINGS
"I join with citizens every-
where in welcoming the more
than two million American-born
boys and girls reaching the age
of 21 this year, and also addi-
tional thousands of foreign-born
becoming citizens by adoption.
In return for the rights and re-
sponsibilities of citizenship I am
sure they will, for all the years
of their lives, perform the high
patriotic and American duty of
supporting their government at
all times in keeping with its prin-
ciples, traditions and ideals as a
democracy."—President Franklin

has been kept in the background,
that she has been suppressed,
kept in ignorance, forced into
the seclusion of the kitchen.
Nothing could be further from
the truth.
Dr. Trude Weiss Rosmarin,
able author and lecturer, provides
the proper answer to existing
misconceptions in a fascinating
little book, "Jewish Women
Through the Ages," which has
been published by the Jewish
Book Club of New York, 110 W.
40th St., New York, in the first
of a series of 50c editions.
"Jewish Women Through the
Ages" is a commendable survey
of women's part in Jewry's
achievements. Seeking to empha-
size the "Jewish" accomplish-
ments of her heroines, Dr. Ros-
marin, unlike other writers who
always emphasize the activities of
Rahel Varnhagen, the Mendels-
sohns and the Herzs, omitted the
heroines of the "Berlin Salons"
who had become converts to
Christianity and abandoned Ju-
daism.
Not only the women of the
Bible and the Talmudic era, but
other outstanding characters are
described in this 95-page book.
There are queens (Michal, Alex-
andra, Marianne, and others) and
heroines (Hannah, victims of
Crusades and Inquisition) ; schol-
ars and martyrs, and creative
writers. There are chapters on
Glueckel of Hameln and Donna
Gracia.
The author of this book, Dr.
Rosmarin, holds a Ph.D. in Se-
mitics, archaeology, and philoso-
phy. She is the director of the
School of the Jewish Woman and
co-editor of the Jewish Spectator.
She is author of "Religion of
Reason," "The Hebrew Moses:
An Answer to Sigmund Freud,"
and other works.
Other forthcoming volumes of
"The Jewish People's Library"
are "Eretz Israel in Jewish Lit-
erature," an anthology compiled
and introduced by Abraham Gold-
berg, the Zionist leader and well
known writer; "Maimonides Said
. • . ", an anthology of the most
important parts of Maimonides'
works, compiled and introduced
by Dr. Nachum Glatzer, the au-
thor of many books published
by the "Schocken Verlag", and
a former associate of Prof. Mar-
tin Buber.
