JERUSALEM (WNS) — A
spokesman for the Jewish Agency
declared here in connection with
the appointment of Field Mar-
shal Viscount Gort as High Com-
missioner for Palestine that "in
all matters connected with the
war effort we will help Viscount
Gort to the utmost of our abil-
ity, as for the rest, we will judge
his actions and policy."
Auni Bey Abdul Hadi, as
spokesman for the extremist Arab
elements, stated in a press inter-
view that "the Arabs hope that
Viscount Gort will not tolerate
the existence of Jewish military
organizations foolishly aiming to
force the British Government's
hand. He expressed the hope
that the new High Commissioner
"will finally succeed in uproot-
ing the evil of organized Jewish
terrorism."
Temple Beth El Sells
Sum of $4,160,0000
In 5th War Loan Drive
ALL-ENGLISH MUSIC
ON SYMPHONY HOUR
OF GENERAL MOTORS
Final tabulation of the total
War Bond sales made by the
members of Temple Beth El who
enrolled as Gallants in the 5th
War Loan Drive, reveals a rec-
ord sum of $4,160,000, it was
reported by Leonard N. Simons,
who, with Major Harold Allen,
served as general co-chairman of
the Temple Drive.
According to Frank N. Isbey,
chairman of the Michigan War
Finance Committee, U. S. Treas-
ury, this figure of over four mil-
lion dollars is believed to be the
largest record of War Bond sales
compiled by any church in Amer-
ica, not only in the 5th War
Loan Drive, but in any drive to
date.
Temple Beth El dedicated its
drive to the 369 sons and daugh-
ters of Beth El in the country's
service.
This inspiration, coupled with
inspired leadership by committe: ,
chairmen, and inspired, all-out
effort by the Temple's• Gallants
in their solicitation of War Bond
purchases from men and women
of all denominations and in every
walk of life, accounted for this
great record.
An hour of old and new music
by three noted English compos-
ers will be played on the Gen-
eral Motors Symphony of the

(NBC, 6 to 6 p. m., EWT).
Frank Black will conduct.
Leo Smit, the brilliant 23
year-old pianist from Philadel-
phia who, last season under Dr.
Black's direction was soloist for
the American premiere of Kab-
alevsky's Concerto No. 2 for
Piano and Orchestra, will be
guest artist. He will be soloist
for the performance of Arthur
Bliss' Concerto for Piano and
Orchestra, written by the dis-
tinguished composer in 1938. The
young pianist is the son of Kol-
man Smit, member of the NBC
Symphony string section.
Curtain-raiser for the concer t
will be Sir Edward German's in -
cidental dance music to the Eng-
lish stage production of Nell
Gwyn. Country Dance, Pastoral
Dance and the Merrymakers'
Dance will be played.
The third composer represent-
ed is Edward Elgar, whom the
English are said to look upon
'as "their private Beethoven."
Although his music scarcely
ranks with that of the great mas-
ter, Elgar is widely noted for
his perfection of musical form
and charm of sincerity. He is
best known in this country for
his Pomp and Circumstances
marches, the D Major one of
which rounds out the July 30
program.
Charles F. Kettering, vice pres-
ident of General Motors and
directing head of its Research
Laboratories, will speak during
the intermission period.

BERNE (WNS) — A decree
ordering the liquidation of all
the remaining Jewish ghettos in
Poland has been issued by the
Nazi High Command, according
to reports reaching here from
reliable neutral sources.
The order reads that whenever
German soldiers abandon a Pol-
ish city they must set the Jew-
ish ghetto on fire and liquidate
the Jews. It is feared here that,
in view of the reported with-
drawal of German troops from
many key cities, the estimated
100,000 Jews in Poland, most of
whom have been employed as
slave laborers in building roads
and in making repairs for the
German forces, are facing total
extermination at the hands of
the retreating Nazis.
