pa-
thetic letter from the Jewish in-
ternees at the Alien Detention
Station at Kenedy, Tex., declar-
ing their readiness to enlist in
the proposed Jewish alloy . .
Ail references to Hitler and Fas-
cism in this letter, incidentally,
had been eliminated by the cen-
sor, and we're wondering why.
. . Also, why should victims of
the Nazi monster be detained in
an American concentration camp?

Rommel's forces, and to be ac-
tive in rallying Moslem senti-
ment for Hitler in territories cap-
tured by the Nazi field marshal
. . . Here's a sad commentary
on the callousness of man these
days . . . The announcement by
a representative of the British
Section of the World Jewish Con-
gress in London that a million
Jews have died as a direct re-
sult of Nazi persecution has
called forth practically no re-
action in the American press.

WAR ECHOES

turning point in the annals of
France . . . Pierre intends to
write a book On his experiences

Edward I.. Bernays, the pub-
licity ace who is a nephew of
the late Dr. Sigmund Freud, re-
ports that Dr. Hu Shill, the Chi-
nese ambassador to Washington,
often stops to look at a painting
that adorns a wall in the fur•
nished house he rented in the
capital . . . It portrays Napoleon
at St. Helena, and the Chinese
diplomat likes to look at it "as
a reminder of what happens to
dictators".

STAGE AND SCREEN

Now Hollywood has its first
set of twin producers . . . They
are Julius and Philip Epstein,
whom Warner Brothers have just
raised to producer status—simul-
taneously, of course, as is fitting
in the case of twins . . . The
Epstein brothers have long been
among filmland's best screen-
playwrights, and, indeed, had a
good deal to do with the current
success "Yankee Doodle Dandy".
Paul Muni, they say, would
like to portray Josef Stalin in a
biographical picture . . .
But pity the poor Hollywood
casting directors . . . one of them
recently sent out a call for an
actor to play the part of Rein-
hard Heydrich, Hitler's slaugh-
terer of Czechs—and not a sin-
gle one of the film capital's thou-
sands of extras applied for the
job.
The late Rudolph Schildkraut
was a wellknown figure on Sec-
ond Avenue, the East Side's
Broadway, but we believe that
last week marked the first ap-
pearance of his son, Joseph
Schildkraut, on a Yiddish stage
. . . The occasion was the Yid-
dish Theater Army and Navy re-
lief show.
We've never run across "Jerus-
alem Jake," but Winchell reports
that he's a Negro panhandler who
worked the Broadway beat, ac-
costing passersby in fluent Yid-
dish with pleas for small change
to enable him to pay his fare
"back to Jerusalem."
