Novelist Jan Struther Says
'Dice Are Loaded Against Us'

LOS ANGELES—Appealing for
increased support of the rescue
programs carried on by the agen-
cies of the United Jewish Appeal
for Refugees, Overseas Needs and
Palestine, Jan Struther, author
of the famous best-seller. "Mrs.
Miniver," told the Women's Divi-
sion of the Los Angeles United
Jewish Welfare Fund that the
"Jews have become a symbol of
everything which Nazism and
Fascism are trying to destroy and
which we are trying to preserve:
dignity, faith, vision, sensitive-
ness, wit and generosity."
She added that to be "singled
out by Nazism and Fascism as
their principal enemy is the
greatest compliment that any-
body could hope to receive."
Miss Struther spoke at the
opening of the Women's Division
drive of the Los Angeles commu-
nity which is this year seeking to
raise the largest sum in its his-
tory for the life-sustaining and
life-rebuilding programs of the
Joint Distribution Committee,
United Palestine Appeal and Na-
tional Refugee Service.
Know the Score
In the course of her address,
the noted British novelist re-
ferred to the world struggle for
freedom and remarked that the
"Jews know the score. How can
the Jew's help knowing the
score?" Miss Struther added.
"They've had to pay the reckon-
ing in this game for so many,
many centuries, and nine times
out of ten with the dice loaded
against them."
The need for carrying on the
battle of democracy on the fronts
of relief and rescue for the Jew-
ish people was glowingly demon-
strated by the news received by
the United Jewish Appeal that
the tiny Jewish community of
Hawaii, strategic base in the Pa-
cific war theater, had gone over
the top in its campaign to pro-
vide for the survival of Jews
thousands of miles away in Eu-
rope, in Palestine and for refu-
gees in the United States.
In a letter which he addressed
to Rabbi Jacob B. Wise, national
chairman of the combined cam-
paign in behalf of the Joint- Dis-
tribution Committee, United
Palestine Appeal and National
Refugee Service, Gaskell S. Ja-
cobs, chairman of the Hawaii
Jewish Community Council, said:
"Situated as we are in an active

war area, the entire community
is keenly aware of the importance
of supporting all organizations
fostering the welfare of the men
in the armed forces and the re-
lief of the unfortunate victims
of our enemies' brutality."
Non-Jews Help

Enclosing a check for the Unit-
ed Jewish Appeal, which was
the major beneficiary of the suc-
cessful campaign of the Hawaii
Jewish Welfare Fund Campaign,
Mr. Jacobs emphasized that in
addition to the contributions
made by members of the Jewish
community, the campaign had
also received the support of a
large proportion of non-Jews.
All races and creeds were re-
presented in the drive through
the substantial gifts made by
many business firms and individ-
uals throughout the territory, be
declared. Mr. Jacobs' letter con-
cluded with a pledge that the
Hawaiian Jewish community will
continue to support the "worthy
causes in which you are en-
gaged."
