The Ann Arbor News publish-;
ed an editorial, under the head-
ing "That Shocking Resolution,"
condemning the action of Gerald'
L. K. Smith's America First Con-

torial follows:
"One of the delegates to Gerald
L. K. Smith's America First
party convention in Detroit this
week gave the organization a
stunning black eye in the esti-
mation of most sound Americans
simply by revealing what was
in his own distorted thinking. He
was Homer Maertz of Chicago, a
reported Silver Shirt, who intro-
duced a resolution calling for the
deportation or sterilization of
Jews in the United States. The
resolution instead of shocking
the convention into instinctive
and instant • repudiation — the
natural reaction of decent-mind-
ed persons, deeply conscious of
the rights of all citizens under
our form of government — was
actually discussed on the floor
in a bitter 'explosion of race ani-

"It's Your Future"

"It's Your Future—Make the
Most of It" is the title of Martin
Panzer's book published by
Whittlesey House, 330 W. 42nd
St., New York..
Mr. Panzer, who is a frequent
contributor to The Jewish News,
proposes some rules- as a conduct
towards success.
. This ingenious author believes
—and puts his beliefs into print—
that personalities can be read-
justed.
Those who desire to benefit by
Mr. Panzer's experiments should
secure his book.
They will learn to deal wi -i
intangibles as well as tangibles,
with rules affecting adjustment
of emotional balances -and physi-
cal stamina and the innate tal-
ents.
"It's Your Future" has many
qualities to recommend it to a
wide reading public as a good
book.

hallowed by tradition, glorified by the
countless thousands who have given

sacred honor" that America might
