In one of his campaign ad- dresses ex-Premier Duplessis read a letter which he said was addressed to Rabbi Schwartz by "H. L. Raskowitz" of the "Inter- national Zionist Brotherhood." Hart shows that "International Zionist Brotherhood" is a ficti- tious name, that the address giv- en for the "Brotherhood" is the address of the Federation of Jew- ish Philanthropic Institutions. An investigation failed to re- veal any Jew in the Province by the name of "H. L. Raskowitz." Duplessis has not replied to the challenge that he produce the letter. The ex-Premier used the letter to support his contention that the Jews had promised fi- nancial aid in the elections to all who would promise to sponsor a plan for settlement of 100,000 Jews in Quebec. RALPH SEIGEL Hitler drove Ralph Beigel out of Europe, but after five years he went back. This time he brought his buddies with him— members of his division in the U. S. Army that landed in Italy. In the fight that followed, Pvt. Beigel was wounded. He was also awarded the Order of the Pur- ple Heart. The decoration and news of his recovery from his wounds have just been received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Martin Beigel of New York, When Pvt. Beigel came to this country he turned for advice and assistance to the National Refu- gee Service which is financed by the United Jewish Appeal. Junior Hadassah To Hear Mrs. Adler Talk on Heal NEW YORK—Declaring that the present Jewish world tragedy transcends all past needs, Paul Baerwald, honorary chairman of The American Jewish Joint Dis- tribution Committee, announced that leaders of American Jewry, will gather on Sunday, Dec. 5, at the Commodore Hotel here, to confer with the officers of the J. D. C. on the problems of im- mediate and post-war rescue and rehabilitation of millions o f Jewish sufferers from war and persecution overseas. The meeting, he said, will pro- vide for American Jews "a forth- right answer to their many ques- tions as to what can be done in general and how the J. D. C. can enlarge its services to meet pre- sent and future needs." The Joint Distribution Com- mittee is the major American agency for relief, emigration and reconstructive aid to Jews abroad.
