Labor Hails Victory

A free press is one of the main foundations of Democracy.
How can a paper be free when it is "subsidized." A sub-
sidized press is a "bought" press. France fell because its
press was subsidized.
When • the Jewish Federation decided to give charity
funds to aid the newly founded Jewish News in 1942, the
Detroit Jewish Chronicle had already been in existence
for more than a quarter of a century. During this period
the Chronicle had opened its columns to every Jewish
organization, to every phase of the Detroit Jewish com-
munity life. It reported all worthwhile activities. It sup-
ported all movements whose aim was to benefit Jewry
here and abroad.
The Federation leaders ignored all the contributions
which the Chronicle had made during its 25 years as a
community organ. They ignored all rules of fair play and
sought to give an unfair advantage to a new paper.
PERHAPS THE FEDERATION LEADERS REALIZED
THAT THE CHRONICLE WAS TOO WELL EN-
TRENCHED, TOO POWERFUL TO SELL ITS INDE-
PENDENCE FOR A CHARITY HANDOUT. That is why
they wanted a paper that would reflect their special
views.

The "glorious" victory of the
British Labor Party in the Bri-
tish elections was hailed in a ca-
ble to Clement Atlee by Max
Zaritsky, chairman of the Amer-
ican Jewish Trade Union Com-
mittee for Palestine, who de-
c lared: "With confidence in Bri-
tish labor's . . . efforts to re-
deem Britain's time-h oln ore d
pledge to foster the creation of
Palestine as a Jewish Common-
wealth, we extend the heartiest
felicitations of over a half mil-
lion Jewish workers enrolled in
our Committee and many mil-
lions more in the American Fed-
eration of Labor and the Con-
gress of Industrial Organizations
who have endorsed our program."
The American Jewish Trade
Union Committee for Palestine
has enlisted the support of an
overwhelming majority of Amer-
ican labor in the drive to open
the doors of Palestine to unre-
stricted Jewish immigration and
to reconstitute that country as
a free and democratic Jewish
Commonwealth.
Peter H. Bergson, chairman of
Hebrew Committee of National
Liberation, sent the following ca-
ble to Attlee:
"Please accept sincere felicita-
tions of Hebrew Committee of
National Liberation upon your
and your party's magnificent vic-
tory in your nation's elections.
"A new era has dawned for
many nations but most of all for
the destitute surviving Hebrews
of Europe, for we now feel con-
fident that the tragic attitude of
indifference to their horrible pre-
dicament has come to an end and
that His Majesty's Government
under your leadership will im-
mediately implement its histori-
cal obligations in spirit of reso-
lutions recently adopted by La-
bor Party.
We appeal to you to substi-
tute a policy of human decency
and concern for the two million
surviving Hebrews of Europe. We
respectfully suggest you imme-
diately announce new policy to
end their unbearable plight of
being considered stateless pariahs
or forcibly treated as enemy na-
tionals.
"We take liberty to request
you proclaim rights of every
surviving Hebrew in Europe to
apply to nearest British Consul-
ate and receive first papers of
Palestinian citizenship and ma-
chinery be set up to transfer
these people to Palestine."

The world trend is toward more Democracy, as in-
stanced by the Labor Party landslide in Britain. In Jew-
ish affairs, too, gone are the days when a few leaders
ruled the community by virtue of their purse, their assi-
milative powers, or their knowledge of politicians. Does
the Federation wish to turn the clock back in Detroit?
Does it want to establish an oligarchy? A dictatorship?
The Jewish Chronicle will fight every attempt to estab-
lish such a dictatorship. IT WILL CONTINUE TO RE-
FUSE TO SELL ITS INDEPENDENCE. This is why the
Jewish Chronicle has offered and again makes the offer to
publish all news and publicity of the Federation and to
mail a copy of the Chronicle to every Federation donor
once a month FREE OF CHARGE.

Ort Tech School
Opens in Budapest

NEW YORK — With the per-
mission of the Hungarian Gov-
ernment, t h e ORT technical
school in Budapest has been re-
opened.
Under the leadership of Ed-
mund Fischer, long active in
Hungarian Jewish affairs, the
ORT has re-established much of
its pre-war activities in Hungary,
with the aim of preparing Jews
to be artisans in useful trades.
With an enrollment of more
than 100 students, the technical
school is offering courses in a
variety of trades, including car-
pentry, tailoring and weaving.
The Hungarian ORT has also
requested sufficient funds to per-
mit economic rebuilding of the
Jewish community in Hungary.
It has been estimated that the
number of Jews surviving in that
country is close to the largest in
Europ e.
