Saluting an Able
Where Hitler Took
Canadian Columnist The Swastika Sign

By B. G. R.

JERUSALEM (Palcor Agen-
cy ) — Even the swastika
filched by Hitler from historic
records has been proved to be
of pure Semitic origin. The
excavations completed on June
7 at Tell al Jeriebeh (Napo-
leon' s Hall), between Tel Aviv
and Petach Tikvah, has brought
to light a wealth of material
which Prof. Eleazar Sukenik
of the Hebrew University will
now study at his Department
of Archaeology. His field expe-
dition had conducted the "dig"
on this ancient site. A broken
earthenware jug of the Bronze
Age 1,400 B. C. E. had a swas-
tika engraved on the handle.

In the days of gloom and ter-
ror which are now enveloping
such a large part of the world,
we shall often think of our breth-
ren across the Canadian border
and give expression to the hope
that they and all their fellow
citizens be enabled to meet with
fortitude and firmness the duties
and trials that are ahead of
them.

record of devotion to Judaism,
to general Jewish interests and
to the ideal of national rebirth in

Census Shows Million Gain in
Church Membership During
Decade

WASHINGTON, D. C. — (Re-
ligious News Service.) — The
Census Bureau reports a gain
of over a million church mem-
bers in the period from 1926 to
1936 and an increase of 43 de-
nominations during the same per-
iod. The figures, based on the
1936 census, also showed a de-
crease in expenditures for church
purposes over the same period
and a decrease in the value of
church buildings.
In 1936 there were 256 relig-
ious bodies with 199,032 organi-
zations and 55,807,528 members,
as compared with 213 denomi-
nations reporting 232,154 organ-
izations and 54,576,346 members
in 1926.
The total expenditures in 1936
were $518,953,571, as compared
with $817,214,528 in 1926. Un-
der this item are included the
amount expended for salaries,
repairs; for payments on church
debts; for benevolences, includ-
ing home and foreign missions;
for denominational support; and
for all other purposes.
The value of church edifices
was $3,411,876,467, as compar-
ed with $3,839,500.610 in 1926.
This item included any building
used mainly for religious services,
together with the land on which
it stands and all furniture and
furnishings owned by the church
and actually used in connection
with church services. It does not
include buildings hired for re-
ligious services or those used
for social or organization work
in connection with the church.

Jane Barnell, the bearded lady
known in the sideshow as Lady
Olga, had a Russian Jewish fath-

other hand. was half Irish and
half Catawba Indian . . . We've

public Pictures, is a descendant

tury Portuguese Jewish statesman
and Philosopher.
