'Koestler Warns
Against Fascism
In Great Volume

The Jews warned you against
racialism because they knew
that what starts as Calling Names
ends in lynching and massacre,
whether in Calcutta, Warsaw or
Detroit. And today those of us
who saw fascism grow and who
know its first symptoms, warn
you „against the pious error of
calling the pox a pimple."
This is only one of the very,
very emphatic warnings to man-
kind to be found in Arthur
Koestler's "The Yogi and the
Commissar."
Koestler's book, published by
Macmillan Co., may well be listed
among the great creations of the
past year.
The essays in this volume are
the result of experiences which
have taken the 40-year-old
author through the hell of Nazi
experiences.
One of the most important and
longest essays in the book,
"Soviet Myth and Reality," points
out that Communism is moving
away rather than t ow a r d
socialism.
With this as well as with other
essays, many readers may differ.
But even for those who differ
this is a great volume, both from
the point of view of its contents
as well as its literary merits.

Most Germans Are Nazis,
is Klaus Mann's Warning
NEW YORK (JPS)—"There
are probably some decent Ger-
mans who are opposed to Nazism,
but it would be a grave mistake
to over estimate their numbers
and their influence," Klaus Mann
writes in Progress Guide. "There
can be no realistic policy based
on a sentimental distinction be-
tween the good and the bad
German," Mr. Mann writes. "The
German anti-Nazi refugees who
keep defending and even prais-
ing the 'innocent' German people
are frighteningly lacking in po-
litical tact and may well be the
forerunners of a new German
nationalism."

of 30 Jewish civilians who had
fled Manila and crossed the Jap-
held mountains broke into the
temporary chapel just as he was
intoning the words, "Blessed art
Thou, Oh Lord, Redeemer of
Israel."
The 30, including women and
children, had left here to escape
atrocities of the desperate Jap-
anese as well as bombing and
shelling by our forces. They
walked through the enemy lines
and spent three days and two
nights in the mountains, living
on wild roots and leaves, before
they came in contact with Amer-
ican troops. They were then
placed in an Army truck which
brought them to San Fabian.
Among these refugees was a
grandmother of 81 and a young
mother about to give birth. The
child, a boy, was born in a near-
by station hospital and was nam-
ed Allen Michael Traugott. It
probably was the first briss (cir-
cumcision ceremony) under Army
auspices in the Philippines.
Al 1 e n Michael's parents are
Heinz and Lony Traugott.

Bilbo's 'Mongolian Descent'
NEW YORK (JPS) — Sen.
Theodore G. Bilbo (D. Miss.) who
calls members of some American
minority groups "Dagoes,"
"Kikes," and "Niggers," is him-
self of Mongolian descent," Leon-
ard E. Golditch, executive secre-
tary of the National Committee
to Combat Anti-Semitism, writes
in an article in the New York
Sunday Report, a weekly veter-
ans' magazine. "Bilbo's family
came to this country by way -of
Mongolia, Spain and England. In
Mississippi he is known as a
`Basque.' His family changed
its name from Bilbao, a Spanish
name, to Bilbo," Mr. Golditch
writes.

Al Jolson may return to the
air in the Fall. He is being of-
fered to sponsors in a $15,000
package deal concocted by Pro-
ducer Irving Mansfield and Wri-
ter Hal (Genius) Block. Reports
have it that Philip Morris is in-
terested in Jolson as a replace-
ment for Ginny "Simms on NBC.
Major obstacle blocking the deal
is that the price is reported too
high for the ciggie makers.
