"Tops" With Employees Since a man's relationship with his own employees is often the test of his standing in the community, it is well to note that Maury -Aronsson is "tops" with his staff. There is not a man or woman in his business organi- zation—the Aronsson Printing Co.—who does not feel admira- tion and affection for - "the boss." Mrs. Aronsson is the former Dora Abramsohn. They have three children, Margie Louise, Lois Selma and Herbert Allen.

Is it an accident or policy that the Associated' Press, in contradistinction to the United Press, for example, has no Jews on its foreign staff and so microscopically few on __its home staff?

Now take Rabbi Sidney E. Goldstein of New York's Free Synagogue, who, be- fore Pearl Harbor, was preaching on the same platform with the American Firsters that it was wrong to go to war to fight Hitler. Now he pops up as a wit- ness in the trial of "Wine, Women and Song," the Margie Hart strip- tease show which was ruled an indecent performance by a jury after testimony by Rabbi Gold- stein and several others. Said Rabbi Goldstein with .horror in his soul that he found the show "very silly, very stupid and very disgusting." What did the vir- tuous rabbi expect to find when he bought his ticket: a perform- ance of "Uncle Tom's -Cabin?" Keep Your Eye on the Ball "We have a heritage of which we are very proud ... We firm- ly believe that' where a people have chosen to mix with another race, inferior in essential poten- tialities, the conglomerate mass does not rise to a greater status, but, on the contrary, always sinks into impotence. We hold that, blood counts, and that the basic mental abilities and character of a people come from the plastic hand of Almighty God." Guess who said that?
