effort. The promotion and the
maintenance of morale are as
essential on the civilian home
fronts as they are in the zones
of combat. Any action which
destroys the people's faith in
the essential meaning of life is
a comfort to the enemy. A ris-
ing level of insecurity at home
or abroad, a spreading suffering
and starvation among those
whom we might help but don't,
can demoralize not only those
who suffer hunger, but those
whose smugness and selfishness
are morally responsible for per-
mitting the hunger to continue
unrelieved.
A Successful Allied Jewish
Campaign this year must take
into account the psychological
aspects of morale in the Jewish
community, even as the democ-
racies everywhere must take in-
to account these same factors
in waging the total war.
"War calls for many sacri-
fices—this is one of the essen-
tial costs that we shall pay glad-
ly. While our Jewish colleagues
the world over have the spirit
to fight back, to go on living
and hoping, we shall prove
worthy of the opportunity to
see them through, with us, to
the brighter day ahead. It
would be a hollow victory for
us to desert them enroute."

BARCLAY ACHESON
Knox Orders
Deatherage Out
Of Naval Job
WASHINGTON. (JPS) — The
"George E. Detherage case"
came to an abrupt end when
Secretary of the Navy Knox
publicly classified the leader of
the Knights of the White Came-
lia as an "undesirable person,"
thus causing his removal as ex-
ecutive engineer of the huge
naval construction project at
the Norfolk, Va., naval operating
base.
The Secretary's action came
as the climax to a week of
mounting protest against the
pro-Fascist and anti-Semitic
spokesman, whom the Dies Com-
mittee had investigated in 1939
without taking any action. Prior
to Mr. Knox's decision, Chair-
man Carl Vinson of the House
Naval Affairs Committee had as-
signed one of his aides to in-
vestigate the record of Deather-
age, whom Washington and the
nation's papers have been pound-
ing for holding down one of
the most important defense jobs
while he held views totally un-
sympathetic to America's war
effort.
The Secretary of the Navy
announced, after an investiga-
tion, that he was invoking Ar-
ticle 27 (C) of the contract
which the navy had issued to
the Doyle & Russell Co., which
is doing the construction work
at Norfolk. The clause "requires
that the contractors shall dis-

by Hon. Adolfo Dominguez,

Mr. Acheson has just recent-
ly returned from an extended
tour of Latin American coun-
tries in the interests of intro-
ducing the Spanish and Portu-
gese editions of Reader's Digest.
Being first and foremost a re-
porter, he spent most of his
time interviewing Central and
South Americans about their at-
titude towards the United States,
towards Axis world domination
aims, and towards the effect of
widespread German, Italian and
Japanese immigration on the
thinking of the Latin American
peoples.
A gifted and impressive speak-
er, Mr. Acheson comes to the
platform primed with important
but little-known facts about the
political, economic and social
habits of Central and South
America, and practically all the
Detroit Consuls of these coun-
tries have been invited and sig-
nified their intention to attend
the lecture.

NEW YORK (JPS) — In a
heated debate at Town Hall here
on the issue of whether the re-
ligious concept of the brother-
hood of man exists in reality or
is "sheer fiction," Lewis Browne,
noted author, declared that the
brotherhood of man is a "sorry
fantasy," as evidenced by the
slaughter by men of men
throughout the world today.
Arguing against him, Dr. T.
V. Smith, Professor of Philoso-
phy at the University of Chicago
and f o r 01 e r Congressman-at-
Large from Illinois, said that
"brotherhood is no more fiction-
al than any other great aspira-
tion."
These opinions were debated
on a nation-wide radio broadcast,
sponsored by the National Con-
ference of Christians and Jews.
Citing periodic waves of in-
tolerance in America, Browne
asserted : "Time and again fierce
hate-waves have swept the land,
time and again millions of Amer-
icans have reveled in hysterical
prejudice and murderous vio-
lence. They have hated all
Quakers, pr hated all Mormons,
or hated all Negroes, or hated
all Catholics, or hated all Jews."
The author of the current
best-seller, "S om e t h ing Went
Wrong," Browne said : "At every
crisis during and after every
war, during and after every de-
pression, we have sought out
some minority or group and
made it our scapegoat. At such
times we have ceased to be even
brothers-in-law."
Children of Temple Beth El
To Conduct Own Services
The children of the Saturday
Division of the Religious School
will once again participate in a
special Service of their own in
the Main Auditorium of the
Temple on Saturday morning,
March 7, at 11 o'clock. The
parents of the children, by their
attendance at this Service, make
religious worship meaningful to
the young members of their
household.
The prayers will be read by
Cyril Abramson, Robert Rein-
heimer and Jane Romm. The
Sermonette will be preached by
Dr. Glazer.
Best of luck to Mrs. Edward
L. Israel, the Rabbi's widow,
who has taken a Jewish Welfare
Board post at Fayetteville, N. C.
It's the spirit of her husband to
carry on where a job is to be
done.
