David' to Spite Nazis KUIBYSHEV (WNS)—David Bergelson, famous Soviet Jew- ish writer, proposed this week that all Jews in Russia wear a "Mogen David" (Star of David) to spite the Nazis. "Not all Jews ever considered it their duty to wear the ancient Jewish emblem, but now when the Nazis consider the Mogen David a brandmark, Jews who never thought of wearing the insignia are demonstratively wearing it with pride," the writ- er said. Mr. Bergelson pointed out that many non-Jews in France, Belgium and Holland wore a Mogen David to show their sympathy for the Jews and The Calendars are now being their contempt for the Nazi anti- distributed from national head- Jewish laws. The Jewish Anti-Fascist Com- quarters, and may be obtained without cost by writing to the mittee in Moscow, observing the Jewish National Fund, 41 East first anniversary of its founding, appealed this week to Jews in 12 St., New York, N.

A statement issued by the Jewish Committee said: "Let this anniversary, which falls on Aug. 24, be marked by Jews in all countries abroad with practical deeds to present the Red Army with tanks and bombers which will carry names of Jewish his- toric personalities as well as of Jewish heroes of the present lit.

Jews Will not be Compelled to Leave Post-War Poland LONDON (WNS) — Expressing the determination of the Polish government-in-exile to support the Jews in their efforts to secure a Jewish State in Palestine, Polish Premier Sikorski emphasized this week that Jews in the post-war Poland will be free either to re- main in Poland or to emigrate to Palestine. The Polish premier gave this pledge in behalf of the emigre Polish government in a message to the New Zionist Organization of Great Britain. The statement was construed as it slap at the extreme Polish nationalists who demand the compulsory emigra- tion of Jews to Palestine after the war.
