A Capital "E"
For Jewish News

Wendell L. Willkie, standard bearer of the Republican
Party, and Mrs. Dudley C. Hay, Republican National Com-
mittee Member for Michigan, indirectly came in for distinct
honors on Sunday, when the reception that was arranged for
Mr. Willkie was picketed by followers of Gerald L. K. Smith;
Dr. S. C. Kohs, director of the
in front of the Book Cadillac Hotel.
Bureau of War Records of the

A group of about 20 men and
women, who were identified as
,Smith followers, paraded in front
of the hotel, carrying banners
reptidiating Mr. Willkie and Mrs.
Hay .as .Republican leaders.
Smith's secretary, Bernard L.
Doman, is said to have arranged
the picket line.
Wonderful Lesson
At the luncheon for the recep-
tion committee and newspaper-
men on Sunday, Mr. Willkie made
the interesting statement that
Michigan taught him a wonderful
lesson during his campaign for
the Presidency, since it was here
that he was first subjected to mis-
siles.
•'Things go wonderfully well
when missiles or verbal missiles
begin," he said. "Then I know that
that adolescents are at work."
His statement took on • mean-
ing when the,Smith group started
its picketing parade.
At a press conference after the
luncheon, Mr. Willkie told The
Jewish News representative that
he hoped to be able to make a
statement on Palestine in the
near future.
Asked to comment on his ob-
servations in Palestine, Mr. Will-
kie said that his views are fully
incorporated in his book, "One
World." There, he described his
visit with Miss Henrietta Szold,
and quoted her views on Jewish
accomplishments in Palestine.
His declaration on Palestine
came when The Jewish News
representative read from his
statement in our issue of May
28 in which he was quoted as
saying that "We must not permit
international power politics to
close the door to a permanent
Jewish Homeland in Palestine."
Ancient Question
in his address before the Pres-
byterian General . Assembly here
on Monday afternoon, Mr. Willkie
declared that a world of peace
and well-being "must find its in-
spiration in the leadership of a
multitude of people who, to
Cain's ancient question, 'Am I
my brother's keeper,' have the
courage to answer 'yes'."
Presbyterians Summoned
To Combat Anti-Semitism
Anti-Jewish . prejudice exists
in the church and is on the in-
crease "in spite of all our pro.-

"The Church has an inescapa-
ble responsibility of witness of
God's love towards the Jewish
people here at home and abroad,"
Dr. Hoffman declared, urging
ministers and laymen to unite in
a 'concentrated -effort. to combat
"the menace of increasing anti-
Jewish prejudice."
Anti-Jewish prejudice contin-
ues in the Church, Dr. Hoffmann
asserted, "even though most of us
seem to be intellectually persuad-
ed that anti-Semitism is not only
undemocratic but also anti-Chris-
tian, and that to permit and to tol-
erate anti-Semitism •is to under-
mine, if not destroy, the vitality
and very existence of our church.
"We must not permit any
faults of the Jews, real or ru-
mored, to tempt us into un-Chris-

Lt. Leon H. Lewis writes his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Sol
Lewis of 3219 Webb Ave., -that his Jewish fellow-servicemen
crave for religious services.

Somewhere in the Aleutians,
Lt. Lewis writes:
"Among other duties, I func-
tion as morale officer for the De-
tachment. So, I sort of whipped
up a Passover service for the
Jewish men in the outfit. One of
the bakers mixed up a little
dough and water for Matzoth.
All-Purpose Book
"The only book we had was
an all-purpose affair issued by a
Jewish organiz-
ation. It was
satisfactory, as
it had the Kid-
dush part of the
Seder service
and two songs.
I had one of the
men act as can-
tor and we all
recited the Kid-
dush. That was
Lt. Lewis
our Seder —
without the meal.
"Everyone seemed to enjoy it,
so we'll have services every
week. These men aren't particu-
larly religious, yet they all ex-
pressed a desire for weekly serv-
ices."
Chaplain Arrives
Several days later Lt. Lewis
wrote his parents:
"A Jewish - Naval Chaplain

came through in time to hold
concluding Passover. services. His
name is Rudin. He is pretty good.
He helped lift the spirit of Jew-
ish men. It's amazing how good
something familiar can make one
feel."

tian attitudes and actions," he
urged.
Dr. Hoffman suggested that to
give reality to the efforts to com-
bat anti-Semitism, Christians
should come to the aid of the
victims of anti-Semitism, particu-
larly those who have managed
to escape to this country since
1933.

The convention adopted reso-
lutions urging diligence in ex-
posing fallacious anti-Semitic
rumors and approving the Presi-
dent's Fair Employment order.
