Repeating hts stand of 1942, Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of Fund on Tisha b'Ab were broken
New York, last week repudiated Rep. Hamilton Fish of N. Y.,
and stated that - he was opposed to Fish's re-election because
- he had raised the religious and racial issue in the political
campaign. -
Rep. Fish had made the statement that "the Tews are
more or less for the New Deal,
unfortunately." He also made
the statement that he would win
in all districts except one—Falls-
burgh—"because it is 90 per cent
a certain people." The people he
referred to are Jews.
After being repudiated again
by the GOP nominee for presi-
dent, Rep. Fish stated that he
would be helped rather than hurt
by Mr. Dewey's statement but
that he would continue to sup-
, port the Dewey-Bricker ticket.
Bricker's Statement
Gov. Dewey's condemnation of
Rep. Fish came shortly after
-Gov. John W. Bricker of Ohio,
Republican vice - presidential
nominee, told a press conference
in Albany that the support of all
elements willing to vote the Re-
pi blican ticket would be wel-
comed as far- as he was con-
cerned. His statement was made
in reply to a question regarding
the proferred support of the
Gerald L. K. Smith anti' Semitic
crackpots, who _met in Detroit
Monday to select their America
Firsters slate of candidates.
Wendell- L. Willkie, Republican
candidate for President in 1940,
declared M a statement that Rep.
Fish's "narrow nationalist views
and associations are the inevit-
able producers of anti-Semitism
and a dozen other perils to de-
mocracy." He • offered his legal
services to the group fighting
• Fish's bid for renomination if
the repudiated Congressman
should sue those who attack him.
Evading Major Issue
Dr. John L. Childs, N. Y. State
chairman of the Liberal party,
commenting on Mr. Dewey's ac-
tion, charged the Republican can-
didate for President with evad-
ing the major issue and ignor-;
ing "Fish's record of isolationism
and his association with totali-
tarian elements. . . His repudia-
tion of Hamilton Fish because he
is dragging religious and racial
questions _into his campaign is
welcomed but fails to carry' with
it the repudiation of Ham Fish's
political record in domestic and.
foreign affairs."
- Rep. Fish has filed a libel suit
against Robert F. Cutler, chair-
man of the Good Government
Committee; for "linking" his
name with those of alleged Nazi
sympathizers. His campaign for
• re-election is being bitterly op,
posed by various groups in the
29th Congressional District.

the editor of The Jewish News,
severely - criticizes those syna-
gogues and rabbis whose activi-
ties cease for the summer
months.
His letter condemns Walter
Lippman 'for his failure to touch
upon any specific Jewish themes
in his articles, and Franz Werfel
for going outside the religion of
his fathers . in search for themes
for his books. •
."Still worse," lie . writes, "is
