The Non-Sectarian Anti-Nazi League has charged before the President's Committee on Fair Employment Practices
that these forms for applicants for jobs in defense industries show discrimination against Negroes, Italians and Jews,
by going in MID-WEEK to
ease WEEK-END congestion
Wartime conditions tend to crowd
transportation facilities on week-ends
when soldiers and war workers travel.
You can aid by going places during the
mid-week when possible. Going by Grey-
hound, you'll be saving your car and
tires, saving materials America needs.

with the British Forces, on their
arrival in Ethiopia, according to
reports reaching this city.
Finding among the British
troops brethren of their own
faith, the Falashas were jubilant.
They welcomed the white Jewish
soldiers into their homes and
synagogues. Synagogues shut and
demolished by the Italian invad-
ers were rededicated by British
soldiers of the Jewish faith.
In the towns a villages in-
habited by the Balashas there
has been an upsurge of Jewish
religious practice, and the Fala-
sha youth is rapidly acquiring
additional Hebrew knowledge
from Jewish soldiers who are
versed in Jewish lore.
Rep. Weiss Offers
Services to Navy
WASHINGTON (JPS) — "I
don't want a bullet-proof job,"
Representative Samuel A. Weiss
of Pennsylvania declared in offer-
ing his services to the United
States Navy. "I want to go on a
battleship or do some work like
that," he added.
A member of the National De-
fense Committee of Bnai Brith,
Congressman Weiss, married and
the father of two children, was
elected to the House of Represen-
tatives in 1940.
Asks Aid for Abyssinian
Falashas
NEW YORK (JPS) — The
dark-skinned Falashas of Abys-
sinia, who are classified as Negro
Jews, have won the support of
the American Jewish Committee,
that body declared here.
The American Jewish Commit-
tee has requested that the British
Board of Jewish Deputies make
repesentations to the British gov-
ernment for the improvement of
the position of the Falashas of
Abyssinia.

eon meeting of the Youth Con-
ference sponsored by the Jewish
Welfare Board, on Saturday and
Sunday, March 14 and 15.
In addition to his position as
executive vice-chairman of the
United Jewish Appeal, Mr. Mon-
tor also occupies the post of
executive director of the United
Palestine Appeal. He is a gradu-
ate of the University of Cincin-
nati. A well known writer and
critic, Mr. Montor has for many
years been a contributor to var-
ious periodicals and newspapers.
He was also the founder of the
Palcor News Agency covering
news of Palestine and Near and
Middle East.

third such annual conference of
youth groups sponsored by the
Jewish Welfare Board.

LITERARY BUSINESS
If it isn't our old friends,
Houghton Mifflin Co., again. They
proudly announce that their
three-year contract with Reynal
& Hitchcock has now expired and
that, hereafter, the privilege is
yours of paying $1.89 for "Mein
Kampf" as issued by Houghton
Mifflin itself. Isn't it swell news
that Reynal & Hitchcock sold a
quarter of a million copies of
Hitler's offal! Houghton Mifflin
hopes to do even better. It seems
so long ago when the American
Jewish Committee was repri-
manded for urging the Boston
publishers not to issue even an
expurgated edition. Freedom of
the press, my eye! . . . Best of
luck to the new concern, L. B.
Fischer Publishing Corp., headed
Arbor, will open the conference
on Saturday night. Round table
discussions will be held on Sun-
day morning at 10:30 on "Youth
in Defense", led by Donald M. D.
Thurber; "Palestine", Donald B.
Butler, of Pittsburg; and "Youth
Organizations in Communal Ac-
tivities", Hannah G. Ferman.
Following the luncheon meet-
ing, round tables on "Economic
and Social Adjustments" will be
led by Samuel Jacobs and "Re-
construction—Economic and Po-
litical" by Jacob Weissman.
A summary session at 4:30
Sunday afternoon will conclude
the conference.
Members of the League of De-
troit Jewish Youth are the hosts,
with Henry Fagin and Albert L.
Lieberman as general co-chair-
men. Committees planning the
conference are: the Social Com-
mittee, headed by Helen Good-
man; Housing Committee, Ruth
Rabinowitz; and the Publications
Committee, Shirley Gotlieb and
Goldie Levinstein. The confer-
ence secretary is Diana Rosen-
blatt.

Landshoff, the men whom Hitler
drove out of Germany. They
brought to Europe such writers
as Feuchtwanger, Hemingway,
Sinclair Lewis, Thomas Mann,
Roosevelt, Shaw, Whitman and
others like them. If they'll only
do as much for American letters
as they did for Europe they'll
be a welcome addition to pub-
lisher's row . . . Good wishes,
too, to William B. Ziff and B. G.
Davis of Chicago, who just
opened new modernistic offices in
the Windy City. Ziff, publisher
of numerous aviation and radio
magazines, puts out the 30-vol-
ume Little Technical Library.
He was the fellow who wrote
"The Rape of Palestine".
