ANTI SEMITES
(Continued from Page 2)
ANTI-SEMITE'S JAILED
AS MENACE TO DEFENSE
Two of the anti-Semites who
have been popping into the news
in this city have been handed pri-
son terms by Magistrate Morris
Rothenberg, who characterized
their speech and actions as strik-
ing "at the very heart of national
defense."
Patrick Feeney, who had been
arrested March 24 for making "loud
and boisterous" remarks about
Jews, was sentenced to 60 days in
the workhouse for disorderly con-
duct. Bernard Sontag, German-
born dishwasher, who was accused
of making obscene anti-Jewish
statements in Times Square
and of spitting on a soldier and a
sailor, was sentenced to 90 days in
the workhouse by the magistrate.
Patrolman Ralph Meadow, a for-
mer Navy champion boxer, was in
the Metropole Bar and Grill when
he heard Feeney verbally •attack
the Jews. When Meadow tried to
arrest the anti-Semite, Feeney re-
sisted. The ccp hit him with a left
hook — and Feeney went along.
Meadow broke his hand. •
Sonntag had been heard by Jack
Jordan, the complainant, railing
against the Jews and predicting, in
obscene language, that Hitler would
soon be in this country. Jordan
followed Sonntag and, after seeing
him spit at a soldier and a sailor,
called a policeman.

TWO LEADING CATHOLICS
CONDEMN ATTACKS
WASHINGTON (JPS)—Without
mentioning Charles Coughlin or his
venomous anti-Semitic theories spe-
cifically, two leading Catholic mem-
bers of the United States Senate,
James E. Murray of Montana and
James M. Mead of New York,
avowed, in speeches inserted in the
Congressional Record that they op-
pose everything for which Coughlin
stands.
Murray asserted that "the teach-
ings of Christ are incompatible
with the pagan Nazi doctrines .. -
I think it is safe to say that Cath-
olicism throughout the world favors
the democratic form of govern-
ment."
Mead, who has often atacked the
ideas of men of Coughlin's ilk, said
that our enemies "not only 'deny
the right to freedom of religion, but
they persecute because of race or
religion and they require obedience
to pagan philosophies." Emphasizing
the religious importance of this
war, Senator Mead stated that the
war "assumes the proportions of a
religious war in a defensive sense."
He stressed that "the anti-thesis of
this right (of religious freedom) of
each and every American citizen—
Catholic, Protestant or Jew
to
is

an attitude of those states which
claim to be morally omnipotent."

Attack Pro-Nazi Press
America is growing angry at the
snipers and the pro-Nazis in its
midst. That this is becoming in-
creasingly true' is evidenced by the
fact that one American publication
after another is taking up the. task
of revealing the insidious work of
the enemies of America who still
operate within the land during war-
time. Two new papers which have
taken upon themselves the job of
exposing men like Coughlin and
Gerald Winrod and countless other
anti-sernites • and anti-Americans
are Life, inftueritial picture weekly,
and the Washington Post, which is
studiously read : by Washington's
leaders.
In a lengthy article called
"Voices of Defeat", Life offers doc-
umentary proof that there are Am-
ericans who "sow lies and hate in-
side our lines" Ozhile "our country
fights for its life." Life asserts that
it has prepared the article "not
to frighten Americans with buga-
boos, but to make them mad enough
to see to it that heir officials take
the necessary action."

patience and her efficiency which
are largely responsible for the suc-

is the organization which sought
funds for defense purposes in Pal-

vided by the Jewish Agency. The
conduct of this effort required tact
and reticence, combined with vigor-
ous internal stimulation of lethargic
spirits. During the several years
