unknown "scoops" on various
phases of the Jewish problem. . .

Board of Education who was Jew-
ish, a county commisioners who
was Jewish, a county treasurer
who was Jewish—all at one time.
Their names were esteemed by
reason of their characters and
rare was the politician or the
Voter who thought of making any-
thing of the fact that these were
Jewish names.
By 1939 the evil thinking of
Hitler had taken hold of many
minds and to have even a most
honorable Jewish name on a busi-
ness window became something to
worry about. One noticed it: The
shop windows of Jewish business
people began to carry trade names
that didn't suggest Jewish owner-
ship.
Used Jewish Name
(I recall the time when Jewish
names were on many business
windows in our town and were
esteemed as honorable trade-
marks.)
Well, to get hack to the Sein-
sheimer Co.: The non-Jewish em-
ployes had taken the business over
and. even in such a time, they
took the good old name along with
it. What if it did have to Jewish
sound? It stood for honorable
dealing. It was a mark of dis-
tinguished character, of long years
of honest business. It had been
held in honor more than a life-
time. It was an aset as valuable
as the best customers on the
)(mks.
The new non-Jewish manage-
ment kept on as the Seinsheim-
er Paper Co. It was a proud ban-
ner to carry. It dated from good
old Abe Seinsheimer and what
guttersnipe pre j udice, could drag
the name of Abe Seinsheimer
down? The old employes cherished
it. In their own experience it had
to do with decent employe-man-
agement relations.
The Seinsheimer Paper Co. goes
on, under non-Jewish manage-
ment, prospernig and as respected
as of old. As a great and good
name it remains respected for the
character it represents.
I don't know what moral can
he made of this, except, to say
that it suggests something de-
sent and hopeful in the undercur-
rent of American life.
The fact that business people
have felt it necessary to conceal
their Jewish identity is in no wise
a reflection on Jews: it reflects
rather on the dreadful state of
these times in which some Ameri-
cans have been forced to hide
away from other Americans, It
reflects on all the minds that
threw themselves open to invasion
by Hitler and accepted his anti-
Semitism as an occupying and
ruling force.
Hitlerism Alive
The Seinsheimer case suggests
that a Jewish name can go on
being courageous even in the
presence of Hitler who is still
quite alive in many a U. S. mind.
even though his corpse may be
buried in some rubble heap of
Berlin. It can stand bravely on its
honor. and to hell with evil minds
that harbor Hitler.
Perhaps it is about time for us
to take courage again and to stand
forth as Americans . who regard
with deepest contempt those who
have subverted the American tra-
dition by vilest racial and re-
ligious prejudice.
Who are they to be afraid of?
Who are they to deserve the re-
spect that fear of them implies?
Thee are the depraved in whose
minds Is Hitler's last refuge.
They shelter him and their minds
stink with the smell of Hitler's
million corpses—the dead of the
murder camps. of Buchenwald,
Dachau and all the others. Hit-
ler's ghost will forever carry the
odor of his dead; the odor festers
in every mind he haunts.
Yes, it seems time to conic out
of the shadow and to play aga i n
our full, due and worthy part in
American life a= Americans.
Otherwise we surrender to Hitler-
inhabited minds that would rele-
gate us to second rate citizenship.
