Carmel Wines Come
From Palestine in
First War Shipment
The first shipment of Pales-
tinian products to reach the
shores of the United States since
Italy's entry into the war is a
full cargo of the famous Pales-
tinian Carmel Wines. The cargo
was brought on the S. S. Evros,
which to avoid the hazards of
blockaded seas, came via the
Pacific and nearly circled the
globe.
Rabbi I. M. Kowalsky, presi-
dent of the Palestine House, Inc.,
the American Center for distri-
bution of Palestine products
stated: "Jewish communities in
the United States, particularly in
connection with the observance
of Passover and other holidays,
form one of the principal markets
for the famous Palestine Carmel
wine brands. These wines are
made in the Rishon le Zion wine
cellars established in this Jewish
Colony in 1882 by Baron Edmond
De Rothschild and which now
serves the cooperatives of the
Jewish wine growers in Judea."
Authorized representatives of
the Union of Orthodox Rabbis in
the United States and Canada
met the Evros at the pier in
order to verify the seals and
papers of the Palestinian Rab-
binate certifying to the kashruth
of the wine shipment.
The distribution of this wine
will be available as soon as cus-
toms requirements are cleared.
Zionist Committee
Calls on Halifax
WASHINGTON, D. C.—A depu-
tation from the Emergency Com-
mittee for Zionist Affairs, called
upon Lord Halifax, British Am-
bassador to the United States,
and extended to him geetings on
behalf of American Jewry.
Dr. Stephen S. Wise, spokes-
man for the delegation ,submitted
a statement which reaffirmed the
stand taken by the Jewish Agen-
cy for Palestine, in favor of full
hearted cooperation with Great
Britain in her struggle against the
totalitarian menace.
At the salve time, representa-
`lions were made concerning cer-
tain alleged measures and policies
currently pursued by the British
Civil Administration in Palestine
and concern was expressed at
the possible effects of these
measures, on the fate of Jewish
refugees and on the future of the
Jewish National Home in Pales-
tine.
The Ambassador expressed his
deep appreciation of Dr. Wise's
words of sympathy with the Brit-
ish cause and undertook to bring
to the notice of the British gov-
ernment the other matters raised.

Sees in Extinction of Land of
Nazism Only Hope for
Lasting Peace
"Germany Must Perish!"
This is the title of a book by
Theodoie N. Kaufman, published
by the Argyle Press of Newark,
New Jersey.
It sets forth the claim that
this is not merely a war against
Nazism, but a war of peoples
against peoples, and makes the
claim that it is necessary now to
make Germany extinct in order
to guarantee lasting peace.
Germany, the author declares,
has forced a total war upon the
world, and "she must be pre-
pared to pay a total penalty."
The book contains a map
showing how Germany could be
dissected territorially by appor-
tionment of her lands to several
nations. It calls for the recon-
stitution of the lands now occu-
pied by the Nazis.
Registration for Camp 'Kindwelt'
EFREM ZIMBALIST
Conservatory of Music at St.
Petersburg, one of the fewer
still to receive a gold medal and
a Rubinstein scholarship upon
graduation, will be guest artist
on the Ford Sunday Evening
Hour of March 23, which will be
broadcast next Sunday night be-
tween 9 and 10 o'clock. On the
same program will be presented,
for the first time in America,
the song Richard Wagner wrote
for the birthday of his wife, 67
years ago.
An accomplished artist in his
own right, Efrem Zimbalist has
also composed numerous songs, as
well as suites for violin, orchestra
and piano, and also transcribed
for his own use a large collection
of Hebrew traditional airs. Born
on April 9, 1889, in Rostov-on-
Don, Russia, the son of Aaron
and Maria Zimbalist, he studied
music with his father who was
an orchestra leader, and continued
his studies under Prof. Leopold
Auer at the Imperial Conserva-
tory of Music in St. Petersburg.
Upon graduation he was awarded
a gold medal and the Rubinstein
scholarship. At the age of 9 he
was appointed First Violinist of
the Rostov Opera orchestra. He
made his St. Petersburg debut in
1906, one of the few Jews to do
so. His Berlin debut came at the
age of 18. He came to the U. S.
in 1911, when he made his Amer-
ican debut with the Boston Sym-
phony Orchestra. Since then, Mr.
Zimbalist has appeared as solo-
ist with leading orchestras in
principal cities throughout the
world, and has made several world
tours.

Explorer Nicol Smith Speaks
on "Burma Road" Sunday
An exciting expedition clown
Burma Road, Marco Polo's an-
cient route, will be revealed in
motion pictures and accompany-
ing commentary at the Detroit
Institute of Arts, Woodward at
Kirby, next Sunday afternoon,
March 23, at 3:30 and again
that evening at 8:30, by Nicol
Smith, famous explorer and au-
thor of the best-seller, "Burma
Road."
Mr. Smith was the first occiden-
tal to travel over the Burma
Road after it was improved to
serve as modern China's one re-
maining link with the western
nations. He encountered Chinese
bandits, witnessed the strange
ceremonials of natives who dwell
along the highway, visited the
Kochiu in mines where death
death claims one-third of the
workers every year, and had other
amazing adventures, all of which
he reveals in his motion pictures
and accompanying word stories.
Even before he was graduated
from Stanford University, Nicol
Smith began his life of adven-
ture. When only 17, he paddled
the length of the Rhine River.
A few months later, he was cap-
tured by a 300-pound native prin-
cess in the South Seas. In Russia,
he was married and divorced
within an hour, just to prove it
Jack Leader Turns Over a could be done. In all, he has
visited 54 countries.

British War Relief
Jack Leader of the Leader
Carpet Cleaning Company has
turned over his check for $503.29
to the British War Relief So-

income for the week of March 3
to 10.
This is the fulfillment of the
Leader Carpet Cleaning Com-
pany's promise to aid the real
war sufferers of Europe—the
aged, the helpless, the women and
children. Mr. Leader is confident
that if the British War Relief
Society organize the movenment
properly the original idea of get-
ting the businessmen of the city
to donate percentages or sums to
be used by the British War Relief
Society in helping the people of
England with bandages, ambu-
lances, aid kitchens and food will
be advanced.
Mr. Leader, in addition to do-
nating a full week's gross in-
come, donated 50 twenty-four
sheet panels, calling upon the
public to aid Great Britain, also
ran newspaper ads pointing out
that he was going to make thy'
full week's donation.
