Relief of Jews

Report on Governmental
Attitudes Brought From
London by Rabbi Miller

NEW YORK—Hope that some
sections of European Jewry now
faced with destruction by Hitler
will be saved, thanks to inter-
vention by neutral countries;
recognition by leaders of the
United Nations that the solution
of the Jewish problem must be
one of the most important con-
siderations at the Peace Confer-
ence; the possibilities of un-
freezing the present White Pa-
per, closing immigration to Pal-
estine in 1944; recognition that
anti-Semitism must be destroyed
as an essential factor in the re-
construction of the world by the
Allies, were offered to the Jew-
ish people by leaders of the Un-
ited Nations in messages brought
back to the Jewish community
of this country by Rabbi Irving
Miller, member of the Govern-
ing Council of the American
Jewish Congress and Secretary
General of the World Jewish
Congress.
This was revealed by Rabbi
Miller in a detailed interview at
the offices of the American Jew-
ish Congress upon his return to
the United States after more
than three months spent in Lon-
don as an emissary of the Am-
erican Jewish Congress and the
World Jewish Congress. His so-
journ in London was devoted to
discussions with the leaders of
all the Allied natons, including
the representatives of the Brit-
ish Government and of the Un-
ited States. Rabbi Miller was
received by 45 of the leading
statesmen of the United Nations,
in addition to establishing im-
portant relations with the heads
of the Church movement, in-
cluding the Archbishop of Cant-
erbury and Archbishop Godfrey,
Apostolic Delegate in London
representing the Vatican.

We have it on good authority
that Maurice Chevalier has con-
siderable "mamaloshen" in his
ancestry. Yet he remained in
Paris to work hand in fist with
the Nazis.

OVERSEAS—

Prior to the liquidation of the Warsaw
ghetto, the Jews destroyed the machinery,
tools and fixtures of 800 factories and
shops in the ghetto which prepared war
material for the Germans, it is reported
by the Polish underground radio, SWIT.
A demand for the surrender of 238
Jews who had escaped from a local forced
labor camp and were hiding in the homes
of non-Jews in the Alba Iulia district of
Rumania met with complete failure de-
spite threats of severe punishment by the
Rumanian military commander, it is re-
ported in Geneva.
During the course of a lecture deliver-
ed at the Rome University, Professor
Orestano, who is said to be a personal
friend of Mussolini's, denounced the Nazi
racial theory and termed Hitler's religion
"the worst type of idolatry," according
to reports reaching London.
There were 13,000 Jews in Slovakia on
June 1, according to an official census
whose results have now been made public.
This number includes persons who were
baptized.
Dutch peasants who hid 13 Jews in
their homes were arrested and deported,
together with the Jews, to Poland, follow-
ing a raid on their village by the Gestapo,.
The Japanese authorities in Shanghai
h a v e ordered the confiscation of all
property owned by Jews. This property,
as well as collective fines imposed on the
Jews, will be used "for the benefit of
Japanese war invalids, widows and or-
phans," it was stated.

Utilization of all 1943 to 1944 visas for
the United States and issuance of at least
100,000 of these for immediate rescue of
Jews of Europe from the Nazi terror was
advocated in a resolution adopted by the
executive committee of the Christian
Council on Palestine, headed by Rev. Dr.
Henry A. Atkinson as chairman. The reso-
lution also urged "to provide refuge in
America" to these Jews "by bringing them
to this country in available American
ships on their successive trip s from
abroad."

Five books of special interest to Jews,
as well as to other faiths, were included
in the annual list of 50 outstanding re-
ligious books published during the past
y ear and selected by the American
Library Association. Dr. Louis Finkel-
stein, president of the Jewish Theological
Seminary, was the Jewish member of the
committee making these selections . . .
"The Small Sanctuary," by Rabbi Solo-
mon B. Freehof of Pittsburgh, "The Odys-
sey of a Faith," by Rabbi Bernard Heller,
New York, "The Jewish Community," by
Prof. Salo W. Baron of Columbia Uni-
versity, Leo W. Schwartz's compilation
"Memoirs of My People through a Thou-
sand Years" and "Archaeology and the
Religion of Israel" by Prof. William F.
Albright of Johns Hopkins University
comprised the list.

The Jews of North Africa have "suffer-
ed miserably," it was asserted by Lt.
David I. Kraushaar, now with the United
