ALL THE JEWISH girls en-
tering service reminds us of the
WAC who, upon returning home,
asked her father if 'he noticed
anything different about her.
"Have you a new hair-do?" asked
dad. "No," answered the WAC.
"Did you lose any weight?"
"Were you promoted?" "Oh, dad,
you're terrible!" cried the WAC.
"Can't you see I'm wearing a gas
mask!"

THE RED CROSS campaign is

Struma Theme in
Lewisohn's Novel
The second anniversary of the
Struma tragedy, when 760 Jew-
ish refugees, men, women and
children, lost their lives in the
Black Sea after being refused
LUDWIG LEWISOHN
admittance to Palestine, was
marked by the appearance of a
new book by Ludwig Lewisohn.
"Breathe Upon These," the
new novel, deals with the Struma
tragedy of Feb. 23, 1942. It is
published by Bobbs-Merrill Co.,
Indianapolis.
The title of the book is de-
rived from Ezekiel 37:9: "Come
from the four winds, 0 spirit, and
breathe upon these, that they
may live."
A refugee couple recently ar-
rived in this country relates the
story of the .Struma to Christian
friends with whom they become
associated here. It is a complete
narrative which should stir the
interest and arouse the sympa-
thy of every reader.
It is regrettable that in spots
the story is poorly motivated. It
is too long a story for one sit-
ting—and many a reader may
ask whether it is a realistic ap-
proach to expect a Christian
family to hear so long a story
which could have been abbrevi-
ated. Furthermore, the realism
is doubted also when the story
is related between so many
drinks.
Slight revision could have im-
proved the story, which is re-
corded with such accuracy. It is
just because it is so accurate that
it loses its power as a novel.
But in the main the book
should reach a good and sympa-
thetic audience, and there will
be many who will be moved to
tears. It is to be hoped that most
of the readers will be Christians
rather than Jews.

'None Shall Escape' Shows
How Victims Will Judge L. N. Littauer, Famous
Philanthropist, Dies
Killers After the War
Every now and then a picture
comes out of Hollywood with a
feeling for public opinion that
is almost uncanny. "None Shall
Escape?" which opens at t h e
Fox Theater this Friday, is just
such a picture.
"None Shall Escape" is t h e
Hollywood version of the trial
of the Nazi war criminals. It is
a drama with the emotional im-
pact of the outraged peoples of
the earth. It is an indictment
of the men who have pillaged
and brutalized the men, women
and children of Europe. In the
film these spoilers w h o con-
quered with the lash are forced
to re-enact their crimes, step
by step, for the judges of all
nations. They are brought back
to the scene of their crimes and
judged by their victims.
In a series of thrilling cut-
backs, "None Shall Escape" de-
picts the aftermath of the last
World War on a small European
village. Then step by step it car-
ries the audience through the
invasion which began the hor-
rors of this war, the occupation
and subjugation to the inhuman
conqueror.
Marsha Hunt, Alexander
Knox, Henry Travers and Rich-
ard (Happy Land) Crane turn
in brilliant performances.
