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.

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.

One of the members of the commission, Dr. Ignacy Schwartzbart, disclosed that from July 4 to July 13 the commission preoccupied itself with listening to the testimony of Jewish and non-Jewish sol- diers and officers. No statement has been issued by any of the Investigators, nor by the com- mission itself, on the results Agency Reserves Opinion ,attained. on Gort Appointment Flowers for all occasions- Dexter-Joy, Florist, Tyler 6-6622 USO ACTIVITIES 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. - Surely if living creatures saw the consequence of all their evil deeds . . . with hatred would they turn and leave them, fear ing the ruin following. —Fo-sho-hing-tsan-king - Walk in the path of duty, do good to your brethren, and work no evil towards them. —Avadana Sataka. • BIRTHS July 24—To Capt. and Mrs. Irving A.
