Bnai Brith's Thanks
Editor, Detroit Jewish Chronicle:
The success of any social event
is due wholly to the amount of
publicity it receives and how this
publicity is released. The recent
Bnai Brith moonlight was a suc-
cess, and we know that without
the generous contribution of space
that The Detroit Jewish Chron-
icle made available for our or-
ganization to reach the people,
our efforts would have been wast-
ed.
Pisgah, Louis Marshall and
Theodore Herzl Lodges, the Wo-
man's Auxiliary and Business and
Professional Auxiliary join in ex-
pressing gratitude to The De-
troit Jewish Chronicle.

VIEWS AND
REVIEWS
By HENRY MONTOR
NOVEL BY BRINIG
Myron Brinig, who has done
more than any current novelist
to identify the moral climate and
psychic characteristics of Mon-
tana, has gone beyond his depth
in "All of Their Lives" (Farrar
& Rinehart), a novel portraying
the Dorian Gray theme in the
lives of two women.
Dora Lattimer was weak and
timid, thrust back on herself by
the misery which came from being
in a house with a carefree, often
drunk mother. Florence Gresham
was strong and assertive, trans-
cending the influence of a tight,
repressive mother. The lives of
these two girls crossed each other
in tragic pattern until the end.
The consuming hatred which
Dora had for Florence was re-
vealed at the death of the latter
as an inverted love, twisted by
inability to lead the same exis-
tence.
The individual incidents are
there. The theme is bold and
fresh. But the writing and the
characterization are slovenly and
trite. Prose that often borders
on the Elinor Glyn school fills the
prolix pages. Emotions are daubed
in with a wide brush, with few
of the nuances of restrained de-
scription.
Myron Brinig has often done
women, as in "The Sisters," "May
Flavin" and "Anne Minton's Life."
All of them were more successful
than his current portrayal of the
feminine, but in each of them
his failure to deal as realistically
with women as with men is a
glaring defect.
MORE POWERFUL THAN
THE SWORD
The pen may be mightier than
the sword but only when wielded
by men like Arthur Szyk, who
has captured the acclaim of the
critics in the brief period since
he came to the United States
and who is destined to win wider
plaudits with "The New Order"
(G. P. Putnam's).
No one who has had the dis-
tinct thrill of seeing his illus-
trations for the Haggadah can
escape the necessity of examining
every sharply etched portrait or
illustration that Arthur Szyk
does. Originally a miniaturist,
working with the delicacy requir-
ed in a tiny cameo, Szyk has
applied the same technique to the
cartoon, with devastating results.
The only other artist who com-
pares with Szyk in intellectual
vigor is Low, even though the
styles of the two men are so
different. Low's force is found
in a few strokes and in a vivid
verbal thrust. Szyk need say noth-
ing—but emphasizes a wart here,
a crooked smile there, a male-
volent eye elsewhere.
This Polish Jew, virtually un-
known to America during all the
years when he was doing his mas-
terly work, may now at the age
of 47 find a new career opening
to him in the field of the politi-
cal cartoon. It is difficult, however,
to visualize his meticulously
drawn, savagely real caricatures
being whipped up for a daily
newspaper. They give the impres-
sion of long labor.
He can dispose of the paunch
of a Nazi with the same skill
as he exhibits the pitiful Petain.
The few color plates give an even
better impression of the verisi-
militude which his drawings bear
to life. His sketch, "Enemies of
the Third Reich," picturing a
ranting, gesturing Hitler stand-
ing over a hapless Jewish fam-
ily is a history of German Jewry
on one page.
For $1.50, "The New Order"
will not only provide you with
new sensations of exultation and
pity but introduce you to one
of the great minds of our time.
NO BUSINESS WITH HITLER
With Mrs. Dwight Morrow,
President Roosevelt and other
leaders of the democratic front
recommending the volume unre-
servedly, "You Can't Do Business
With Hitler" (Little, Brown &
Co.) has been launched with un-
usual sponsorship. Douglas Mil-
ler, American Commercial At-
tache at Berlin from 1925 to
1939, is the author of the book,
having been encouraged to do the
full-length volume after writing
a short piece for a magazine pre-
viously.
What is particularly interesting
about Mr. Miller's detailed de-
scription of the Nazi mercantile
methods is his statement that as
long ago as October, 1931, he
prepared a report to Washington
of how the coming National So-
cialist State in Germany would
operate. It was an account that
was substantiated by time. To
comment cynically on the failure
of Washington to evaluate the re-
port accurately would be too easy.
In chapter after chapter, Mil-
ler is concerned with only one
thing: to prove to those who say:
"We're not interested in Hitler's
political theories; we can't teach
the Germans how to run their
country; we can do business with
them regardless of ideologies"
that they completely misunder-
stand the basis of Nazism.
Dealing in the prosaic terms
of the "business man," Miller ob-
serves that "if Britain fails,"
there would be inevitable for all
the world "economic servitude."
There is, however, a note of
optimism in Miller as regards the
feeling in Germany itself. "The
German people are still obedient,
but not enthusiastic. They will
follow Hitler as long as he seems
to be victorious. If disasters come
. . . the moral defeats of the
Nazi system will be felt in a
widespread betrayal and repudia-
tion of National Socialism."
Douglas Miller has a point to
make beyond proving there is "no
profit" in dealing with Hitler. In
effect, he says: "go to war to
wipe out this menace to man-
kind."
BOOK EXPERIENCE
Mrs. Anna W. M. Wolf has her
own children. In addition, she has
long been the guiding spirit of
the Family Consultation Service
of the Child Study Association.
Her varied experience has equip-
ped her to write "The Parents'
Manual" (Simon & Schuster.).
It is an intelligently written
book on the subject of the emo-
3
tional development of young chil-
dren. Its counterpart has appeared
in a variety of other volumes.
The only trouble with it is the
same that marks all the other
books in the same category: the
art of dealing with children is
as much a matter of intuitive in-
telligence as of cultivated skill.
Modern methods have created as
many neuroses as they have
cured.
GENEVA.—(JPS)—The Brat-
islava Nazi newspaper, Grenz-
bote, reports that 32,234 Slo-
vakian Jews between the ages
of 17 and 50 are now engaged
without pay in forcel labor on
roads and railways.
