RHODES The local visit this week-end of Ben Kaufman, Na- tional Commander of the Jewish War Veterans of the United States, brings to our city one of America's out- standing war heroes, who wears that rarest and most precious of all war decorations, the Congressional Medal of Honor. Among the many lies and calumnies which our ene- mies have spread, none is more vicious or outrageously false than the charge that Jews of America do not bear their full share of the "blood, sweat and tears" which alone are the price of victory in war; that we skulk in safety in the rear while others suffer and die in the front lines of battle. Typical of this kind of slander is an article recently published in the Prairie Schooner of Salina, Kas., and distributed among the officers and men of Camp Philips, Kas., and other army camps. It runs like this: -1 THEY WERE FIRST The first American to kill a Jap was Michael Murphy. The first American to sink a battleship was Colin Kelly. The first American flier to bag a Jap plane was Ed O'Hara. The first American Coast Guard to detect German spies was John Cullen. The first American to make himself a human torpedo was John Patrick Powers. • lu The first person to get four new tires was Abraham Cohen. Ben Kaufman and men like him furnish a living refutation of this sort of Hitlerite propaganda. For the truth is that we Jews possess an abundant share of courage, both moral and physical ; of that quality which we Americans call "guts". It enabled Ben Kaufman to perform his legendary exploit on the field of battle, when wounded and the sole survivor of his company, he rushed forward in the face of withering machine gun fire to capture an enemy position. It steeled the hand and steadied the aim of Sergt. Meyer Levin, who, as Captain Colin Kelly's bombardier, released the bomb which sank a Jap battleship. It was responsible for the recent act of heroism in Guadalcanal of Pvt. Barney K. Ross, the game little fighting man who held two world's championships, who stood guard over three wounded comrades and blazed away in defiiance although it was almost certain death to remain exposed to a hidden Jap machine-gun nest. It won for him a recommenda- tion for the Army Distinguished Service Cross and the even more coveted honor—according to him—of hearing his captain call him a "damned good Marine". The brave spirit and lion-like courage of the Maccabees are not dead. They burn in the heart and soul of the Jew and need but the great and overwhelming cause of liberty to burst into full and glorious flame. Gamma Kappa Chi Induction Dinner for Pledges on Feb. 8 U. S. War Bonds in the amount of $200 were purchased by the Gamma Kappa Chi fraternity of Wayne University. • Chuck Kruger will serve as chairman for the induction dinner for the pledges on Feb. 8. Others who are assisting with the plans are Chester Shaw, Irving Cohen. Ralph Gross, Maxwell Nadis, Sol Dovitz, Paul J. Miller and Phil Bornstein. Ralph Gross will replace Leo Burg as treasurer of the fratern- ity. Burg enters the army to make 32 members of G. K. C. now in the U. S. armed forces. Pvt. Sidney Chafetz and Al Seigel, of the U. S. Signal Corps are now home on furloughs. • Louis Marshall Bnai Brith Aux.
