BUENOS AIRES (WNS)—Anti.
Semitic officials in the Argentine
government have ordered the dis-
missal of many Jewrsh teachers,
doctors and civil servants. In
some cases, instead of outright
dismissal, Jewish teachers have
unwillingly been transferred to
other cities.

The following is an excerpt
from an article by I. F. Stone
in the newspaper, PM.
For my comrades, for the Jews
waiting in the DP camps of Ger-
many and Austria, for the Jews
fleeing across the borders of east-
ern and central Europe from new
persecution. there is no longer a
problem. Palestine is not a mat-
ter of theory.
"Have they any choice? Is any
country opening its doors to
them?.Has anything come of the
needless conferences on refugees—
the months of talk before the war.
when many of the dead 6,000,000
might still have been saved; the
endless negotiations and investiga
Cons since, when there are so
few left?
WANT TO GO THERE
"Not all my comrades were he-
roes or idealists. Many of them
would prefer life in a settled
country like America or England
to the hardships and struggle of
the frontier in Eretz. But for
most of them, Palestine Is not
merely the one possibility for a
new life, is not merely a place of
refuge, but the country to which
they want to go.
"I met people in the DP camps
and I talked with people on the
boat who had relatives and affi-
davits for the U.S.A., but were
going to Palestine instead.
"Is this hard to understand?
They have been kicked around
as Jews and now they want to
live as Jews. Over and over
again, I heard it said: 'We
want to build a Jewish country.
. . . We are tired of putting
our sweat add blood into places
where we are not welcome. . . •
We have wandered enough'
LIVE AS A PEOPLE
"These Jews want the right to
live as a people, to build as a
people, to make their contribution
to the world as a people. Are
their national aspirations any less
worthy of respect than those of
any other oppressed people?
"I paid tribute In my series to
the vitality I found among these,
my brethren from the East. What
is the source of this vitality and
strength? The source Is twofold.
The first lies in the Zionist idea,
in this romantic dream of a Vien-
nese journalist in the late nine-
teenth century, the dream of a
Return.
"This has given them a goal,
their lives a purpose, their shat-
tered selves a focal point around
which to reintegrate their person-
alities and to recover their moral
health.
NO OTHER CHOICE
"The second source of their
strength is simpler. It Is the lack

The only living member of the first (1883) graduating class and
the last person to be ordained as rabbi In this year's graduating
class at the _Hebrew Union College are shown in the above
photo. Dr. David Philipson, class of '83, is rabbi emeritus of Cin-
cinnati's Rockdale Avenue Temple. Rabbi Edward Zerin, class of
'46, took over recently the post of assistant rabbi of United Hebrew
Congregation, St. Louis, Mo., where he will be associated with Rabbi
Samuel Thurman.
of alternative to which I have al-
ready referred.
"'For us,' one of my friends
said to me on shipboard, 'Pales-
tine is the last stop. We can go
no further.' They have nothing to
lose, hardly life itself—for life for
Jews in Poland and Romania and
Hungary today is too precarious
to be worth much, and life in the
DP camps Is hardly life at all,
but a kind of waiting day after
day in an open grave, from which
one may or may not Prise.
"Such people, in such a mood,
are not easily defeated. They who
knew the SP. are not terrified by
the British. They who saw the gas
chambers are not frightened by a
naval blockade. They are going to
Eretz."
