Miss Biehl Praised
For Sending Sheet
Music to Soldiers
Miss Rose Diehl of 1685 Blaine
is receiving the thanks and
praise of military leaders for
collecting and shipping sheet
music for use by men in the
armed forces.
Capt. Lewis T. Thornton, As-
sistant Port Special Services Of-
ficer at Brooklyn, N. Y., writing
to Miss Biehl, stated:
"Your continuous efforts in
connection with the welfare of
our troops are appreciated by
this division and by the troops
on our transports, both outward
and homeward bound, who de-
rive pleasure from your contri-
bution."
Miss Biehl, who is now at-
tending Wayne University eve-
ning classes in music, has pub-
lished a number of songs, some
of which have been heard over
national hook-ups. She is con-
tinuing to collect sheet music and
invites the cooperation of all
Detroiters.
Council for Judaism
Launches New Attack
PHILADELPHIA' — Pointing
out that immigration certificates
to Palestine under the British
White Paper are being rapidly
exhausted, the American Coun-
cil for Judaism in its current
Information Btilletin declares
that " the very finality of the
meaning of the White Paper im-
plies a revision of policy" be-
cause the "White Paper cannot
be the last word" in relation to
Palestine.
The Council also points out
that Zionist political agitation
of recent years for the creation
of a Jewish commonwealth and
Zionist control of immigration
is a negation of the World Zion-
ist Organization's acceptance, 23
years ago, of the first full in-
terpretation of the Balfour
Declaration and the Mandate by
the British Colonial Office, then
headed by Winston Churchill.

Nahum Sokolow's Kin
Twice Escapes Nazis,
Found Safe in Paris
PARIS (JTA)—Stephen Soko-
low—grandson of Nahum Soko-
low, late Zionist leader and He-
brew writer—who had been given
up for dead in Poland, turned up
here this week.
Young Sokolow, who was then
16, left school in England for a
vacation in Poland in the sum-
mer of 1939. He was stranded in
Warsaw by the outbreak of the
war and for three years lived in
the Warsaw ghetto. In 1942 he
was placed on a train bound for
the Treblinka death camp, but
succeeded in escaping and re-
turning to Warsaw.
Using false documents, he
traveled to Vienna where he
worked in a rope factory until
November, 1944, when he was
betrayed to the police. In March,
when the Russians were ap-
proaching Vienna, all the prison-
ers were evacuated to Czechoslo-
vakia. En route, Stephen escaped
and made his way to the Amer-
ican .lines, where he met his
uncle, Florian Sokolow, a Polish
war correspondent.

The Week's Best Stories
Decision: By Rabbi's Wife
A Rabbi in a small town was
beloved by his congregation. But
they could pay him only a small
salary. A congregation in a near-
by town sent him a "call," with
an offer of a much larger re-
ward. He did not know whether
to accept or not.
One of his congregants met
his son in the street.
"Well," he said, "I hear your
father has received a 'call' to a
bigger synagogue. Is he going
to accept?"
"I don't know," said the boy.
"Father is in his study praying
for guidance."
"And your mother?"
"Oh! She'S upstairs packing
the trunks."

The Shalom Goy
The Rabbi's wife was greatly
surprised that the blond Irish
boy did not show up on a cer-
tain Saturday morning. He had
bees the Sabbos boy of this East
Side family for the past two
years, attending to the stove
regularly and taking care of
othar things which observant
Jews dare not ds. on holy Sab-
bath. For his labors the boy
had been receiving 14., cents a
week'. He had informed the
Rabbi's wife that he waa mak-
ing good use of the money - and
she could not understand why
he should all of a widen. de-
prive himself of his earnings.
The following Sabbath the boy
was asked to explain his ab-
sence the preceding week.
"I'm sorry I could not come,"
said the boy "but I had to go
to schul with my papa to de-
liver my Bar Mitzvah address."
