Well, after Daniel had been an enlisted man in the Navy for a year he was admitted to Annap- olis. Took an examination and passed the highest of all, and the commanding officer wrote Mr. Weintraub: "Daniel shows the makings of a man." "Do you remember him grada. acing from Annapolis?" Mr. Weintraub asked. "That was in 1927." The local newspapers had a big piece about Daniel that time and about Mr. Weintraub in particu- lar. Mr. Weintraub had laid off work in the cloak factory and had gone with his wife to see Daniel graduate . . . The Secre- tary of the Navy was calling up each graduate by name to pre- sent him with his diploma. "Daniel Weintraub." f A TALL, handsome boy came forward. This was his Dan- iel.

He stood up in the big hall, among the ad- mirals, the captains and the com- manders, and shouted "That's my boy!" People looked up. startled at the interruption, as if to ask what does this mean? Only Mr. Weintraub and his wife under- stood everything that Ensign Daniel Weintraub signified in this hour.

Halevy Will Rehearse at Central High School In order to help its members conserve their automobile tires, the Halevy Singing Society has moved its rehearsal headquarters to Central High School, Tuxedo and In Salle, where was held its first meeting Of its 18th year of activity last Tuesday evening. Halevy Musical Director Dan Froham was in charge of the choral singing, while plans for the ensuing year were discussed by president Morris Shatzen, vice-president Eugene Franzblau, and musical committee chairman Max Levy. It was announced that this year's program will include the oratorio "Tzvei Brides' (Two Brothers) with music by Jacob Schaefer written to a poem by I. L. Peretz. Permission to use this work was obtained from the Jew- ish Music Alliance of New York. Vice-president Franzblau, who is also chairman of the member- ship committee, stressed the ur- gency of obtaining additional members, and replacements for many who have had to forego their Halevy activities becabse of absence in service and war work. Applicants for membership are invited to attend the next re- hearsal on Tuesday, Sept. 29, in Room 317 of Central High at nine o'clock when auditions will be given. Following rehearsal, they are asked to join all Halevy mem- bers in an informal meeting and get-together at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Russell, 11825 Ham- ilton Ave. Refreshments will be served.. LAVAL ARRESTS CATHOLIC LEADER AS WARNING TO CHURCH FOR AIDING JEWS Protests Compel Vichy to Desist from Policy of Separting Deportee Children from Parents BERNE (WNS) — The belief that Vichy's pro-Nazi chief of government, Pierre Laval, has bitten off more than he can chew in ordering the arrest of a French Catholic leader as at %yarn ing to the Catholic Church against fur- ther interference with the Vichy anti-Jewish program, was wide- spread in diplomatic circles here. The arrest of Father Chaillet, a member of the staff of Pierre Cardinal Gerlier, archbishop of Lyon, who has repeatedly de- nounced the round-up of thou- sands of Jewish refugees in Un- occupied France for deportation as slave laborers to Nazi-occu- pied Europe, was accompanied by a thinly-veiled ultimatum to the Catholic Church to confine itself to religious matters. The temper of the French peo- ple, who have not yet recovered from the shock of Laval's an- nouncement of conscription o f French men and women workers for work in Nazi munitions fac- tories, was reported to have leached the boiling point when the Vichy fuehrer replied to the mass protests against the treat- ment of Jewish refugees by in- terning the popular Catholic leader. At a press conference in Vichy, Laval issued the following state- ment: "The Catholic cardinals and bishops have intervened, but every one is a master of his (Anl trade. They handle religion --- I handle government affairs. "No man and nothing can sway me from may determination to t id France of foreign Jews and send them back where they originated. I'll take no lessons in humanitar- ianism from any country. "I am applying to Jews the same treatment prescribed cen- turies ago by the Catholic Church. I cannot say I will never change my mind, but at present I have no intention of extending the anti-Jewish laws of the Ger- man occupied zone to free France—including the obligation ‘ to id., NN , Taii the yellow ::tar of Da- back where they came from," La- val said. At the same time Laval uo- loosed an Organized propaganda against the Jews for the avowed purpose of showing that the "Jews are responsible for the de- feat of France." The Vichy radio launched the anti-Jewish cam- paign with this announcement: "At a time when France is weak and disorganized from war wounds, when the whole future of France and the world is un- certain, it is surprising to see Frenchmen excited about a few Jews. We do not deny that from a purely humanitarian standpoint some Jews are to be pitied. From our national standpoint, however, the Jews are responsible for our decadence and defeat." • Meanwhile, the Vatican is con- tinuing its protests against the expulsion of Jewish refugees. The Vatican City radio, condemning the Vichy persecution of Jews, pledged to "do everything in our power to help these unhappy peo- ple," and then added: "What right has ohe section of humanity, after 20 centuries of Christianity, to tamer with the freedom of the children of God?"
