"Entirely incompatible with and offensive
to Judaism," is the verdict of the Synagogue
Council of America on "The Bible in the Hands
of Its Creators," the work of Moses Guibbory,
a Jerusalem cave-dweller, now in the • United
States. The book, according to the Synagogue
Council, "displays a spirit of intolerance and
irreverence toward the sanctities and the faith
of Israel, and constitutes a desecration of its
holiest doctrines." . . . Moses Guibbory's book,
and the sect accepting its doctrines, are spon-
sored by radio commentator Boake Carter. The
sect's doctrines bear resemblance to Karaite
teachings,
PALESTINE
Jewish Palestine's press, earlier recording
profound disappointment over the deferment
of the Jewish Commonwealth resolutions be-
fore Congress, has received with great satis-
faction the statement President Roosevelt
authorized Ribbis Wise and Silver to issue in
his name. The newspaper Haaretz described
the statement as "a gentle breeze in an atmos-
phere that was begining to be stifling."
Arab circles outside Palestine are proposing
that an All-Arab Congress be convened to
discuss the future status of Palestine, accord-
ing to a report released in Jerusalem by the
Arab News Agency. Arab rulers, the agency
reports, are planning joint action in connection
with recent developments in Washington re-
garding Palestine.
Representatives of 16 Jewish settlements in
Palestine's South, called the Negev, who in
recent years disproved the contention of the
Government that the soil there was uncul-
tivable, protested officially against the recent
verdict of a Government expert that the Beer
Sheba area could not be developed. Meeting
With the Beer Sheba District Commissioner, the
settlers declared that if they would receive
piping to install irrigation "the desolate area
would be speedily developed."
Patrick Malin, vice director of the Inter-
governmental Committee for Refugees, confer-
red in Jerusalem with members of the Jewish-
Agency Executive on problems relating to the
rescue of Jews from Axis-dominated territories
and the relief of those rescued.
Approximately 72 per cent of Palestine Gov-
ernment's income tax revenue is derived from
the Jewish taxpayer, according to estimates of
Jewish tax experts. The Jews of Palestine con-
tribute. through income tax payments, eight
tmes as much per capita as the Arabs, it was
declared here by Dr. Bernard Joseph, acting
political chief of the Jewish Agency.
The Jordan Valley is the scene of army
maneuvers in preparation for the invasion of
Europe. Mountain warfare is stressed in. these
maneuvers.
The Department of Justice in Algiers has
announced the impending trial of 588 persons
for anti-Semitic outrages and fascist activities.
The defendants include officials who "Aryan-
ized" Jewish property and supervised intern-
ment camps under the Vichy regime.
The Jewish communities of Algeria, Tunisia
and Morocco arranged Purim festivities to
which hundreds of Jewish soldiers serving
with the United Nations armies were invited.
French fascists demonstrated in the streets
of Paris, blaming the Jews for the death sen-
tence rendered by an Algiers court-marital in
the case of Pierre Pucheau, former Vichy
Minister of the Interior, who was found guilty
of treason.
Sven Hedin, the noted Swedish explorer and
an apologist for the Nazis, refused to accept
the chairmanship of the Nazi Party of Sweden,
explaining that he was "pro-German, but not
anti-Semitic."
A plea for the 1,400 so-called illegal Jewish
immigrants, all of them refugees from Axis
and Axis-dominated territories, who were
transferred three years ago from Palestine to
the Island of Mauritius, was voiced in the
House of Commons by Eleanor Rathbone, In-
dependent.

Mr. Levinson has been in the
mortgage business for the past
seven years and has to his credit
an outstanding record in securing
FHA Mortgages. He has a large
following among builders and real
estate brokers in Detroit- and has
established his reputation be
cause of his knowledge of the
mortgage business and the unlim-
ited service he has given his
clients.
In his new offices, Mr. Levin-
son has made affiliations to en-
able builders to avail themselves
of- construction money. He has
associated himself with men who
prepared to assist the builder in
their many complex problems
now prevalent in the building
industry.
