r Page Sixteen THE JEWISH NEWS Don't Forget Jews In the Peace, Plea Of Prof. Einstein By HASKELL COHEN (Copyright, 1946. Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.) Makes Appeal at N. Y. Meet- ing Marking Publication of Jewish Black Book NEW YORK (JTA)—A plea to the nations of the world not to forget the Jewish people, "who as an entity has suffered so deep- ly," particularly when the prob- lems of the peace are discussed, was voiced by Prof. Albert Ein- stein, addressing a huge mass meeting at Madison Square Gar- den, The occasion was the publica- tion of a Jewish Black Book re- cording the Nazi crimes against the Jews in Europe, by the Jew- ish National Council of Palestine, the Jewish Anti-Fascist Commit- - tee of the USSR, the World Jew- ish Congress and the American Committee of Jewish writers and Artists. "Let justice be done through the fulfillment of the solemn pledges concerning the further- ance of the upbuilding of Pales- tine," Prof. Einstein pleaded. "And may all national minorities be assured, on a supernational basis, of that degree of protection which is indispensable for the preservation of peace." Prof. Einstein emphasized that "the protection of human beings is more important than the sov- ereignity of states." Pointing out that in the last decade the Ger- mans had systematically killed off about half of the Jewish peo- ple, and that the facts are pre- sented to the world in the Black Book, he charged that all nations who witnessed "this collapse of human - conscience" could have prevented the catastrophe if they sincerely wished to do so. Other speakers were Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, chairman; 'Dr. Maurice L. Perizweig, head of the political department of the World Jewish Congress; Judge Anna M. Kross; Albert E. Kahn, author of "Sabotage"; and Reuben Saltz- man, author and lecturer. Forty- five cantors from New York's synagogues chanted prayers for the Jews exterminated by the Nazis. Herman Heads HIAS For the 21st Time Abraham Herman, chairman of the board of the National Con- tainer Corporation, has been re- elected for the 21st time as presi- dent of the Hebrew Sheltering a n d Immigrant Aid \ society (HIAS). Other officers chosen are: Samuel A. Telsey, Solomon Dingol, editor of The Day, Joseph Pulvermacher, president of the Sterling National Bank, and Col. Murray I. Gurfein, vice presi- dents; Harry Fischel, treasurer; Samuel Goldstein, associate trea- surer; Benjamin J. Weinberg, honorary secretary; Isaac L. Aso- fsky, executive director.

To pick an all star basketball club seems impossible, but it can be done conceivably with the help of coaches, writers, and sportcasters. The J.T.A. has selected its All-American club with the aid of a board of ex- perts including Eddie Gottlieb of the Philly Sphas, Abe Saperstein of the Harlem Globe T N..ters, L. I. U.'s Clair Bee, Ray Mt.,yer; De- Paul coach, Red Wolfe, former Spha star and ex-L.I.U. mentor, and of course the writer. Our team has height, shooting ability, and is alert on defense. Three of the players, Goldsmith, Boykoff, and Tanenbaum, were selected by True Magazine's board of experts for the closest thing re- sembling an official All-American squad. Goldsmith Best Shot Experts are agreed that Jack Goldsmith is the best set shot in the country. His coach Clair' Bee, avers Jackie is the greatest set shot of all time. Nat Holman and Joe Lapchick, famous pros now coaching in New York, agree with Bee. Irwin Alterson at the second forward berth virtually kept Cornell in the Ivy League race all by himself. It was no fault of his that Dartmouth nipped the Ithacans in the final game of the season for the loop title. Irwin led the league in scoring as he did last season. Harry Boykoff at center is not the player he was before he en- tered the Army. But—he is still head and shoulders above his competitors. Harry specializes in the pivot shot. Of course, with his height of 6'9", he is tough under both the defensive and of- fensive boards, snaring defensive rebounds and tapping in team- mates' miscues. He was second to Goldsmith, in scoring, in the Met area. Tanenbaum Defense Wizard Sid Tanenbaum, third highest scorer in New York City, is pound for pound the best all around player in the country. Sid is a play maker, a shooter, and a wizard on defense. Chuck Allen, the bespectacled DePaul University guard, was the playmaker on the team which built its offense around the Great George Mikan. Coach Ray Meyer says, "Allen is one of the most underrated players in the mid- west, his play is so consistent from game to game that few of the fans give him a second thought." Former Governor HAROLD E. STASSEN of Minnesota joined Henry Monsky, president of Bnai Brith, and Joseph M. Proskauer, president of the American Jewish Committee, in opening the 1946 campaign of the Joint Defense Appeal for $5,000,000 at a dinner held April 4, at the Hotel Wal- dorf-Astoria, New York. Samuel D. Leidesdorf was chairman of the event. The Joint Defense Appeal na- tional goal of $5,000,000, which is 43 per cent. more than the amount raised last year, is required to support the expanded programs of the American Jewish Commit- tee and the Anti-Defamation League in combating racial and religious bigotry. Bnai Brith Girls Hold Mardi Gras Saturday The Detroit - Windsor Bnai Brith Girls Council will select the King and Queen of the Mar- di Gras on April 6 at Jericho Temple, Joy Road and Linwood. Mickey Woolf and his orches- tra will furnish music. A show has been planned. The committee includes Alvira Rothschild, Jeanne Cohen, Mar- ion Aaron, chairmen: Shirley Glicksman, tickets; R o z el y n Bohn, decorations; Marilyn Kor- ash, publicity; Beverly Levine, posters; Juliet Moses, waitress; Marcia Goodgal, refreshments; advisors, Mrs. Edith Goodman and Mrs. Tillie Kushner. Friday, April 5, 1946 N. Y.—Jerusalem 2 Boys Sentenced TWA Air Service For Beating Sister Opens April 25 Of Gestapo Agent NEW YORK—The dawn of a new period of American-Palestine trade cooperation was heralded with the announcement that Trans World Airways would commence its regular New York- Jerusalem service in April. The service will be inaugurated with a flight for the Palestine Eco- nomic Bureau of the Zionist Or- ganization of America, 41 E. 42nd St., New York City, on April 25. The maiden flight of TWA's Con- stellation plane will carry a group of American industrialists and businessmen on the first post- war trade tour of the Holy Land. The tour has been arranged for 30 men by the Palestine Economic Bureau to demonstrate Palestine's mounting importance as an eco- nomic trade center for. the entire Middle East. The plane will leave La Guar- dia Field at New York and is ex- pected to complete the flight to Palestine in 36 hours of flying time. There will be short stop- overs in Europe and the bureau is attempting to arrange meet- ings with representatives of Euro- pean Jewry and to discuss ways and means of aiding them. The cost of the trip by plane will be about $1,450 (including federal taxes). In Palestine a tentative rate of $20 a day will cover all expenses, including hotels and trips. The party will spend about 30 days in Palestine returning about May 27. 32 I.O.O.F.

FRANKFORT (JTA) — T h e AMG court here imposed one- year sentences upon Andor Horo- witz, 18, and Bei. Blum, 21, Ro- manian Jewish survivors in con- centration camps, on charges of beating Kristenz Diedl, sister of the Gestapo agent who murdered Horowitz's father. Capt. Alan Fraser, acting in- vestigator, prosecutor and judge, said he sympathizes with the boys but "two wrongs don't make .a right." The court ignored the testimony of Blum as passive in the alleged attack and doubted Horowitz's as- sertion that the woman hit him with a washboard. The incident occurred Feb. 11 when the youths searching for the Gestapo agent demanded to know his where- abouts from his sister. Kurt Kathe, the defense lawyer, plans an appeal to the higher AMG court. PASSOVER Canada to Seek Legalization Of Refugees Without Visas MONTREAL, (JTA)—The leg- More Applications for U.
