Mezuzah versus Lulav
A woman Who did not get
along well with her husband re-
marked to him that she wished
she were a - mezuzah. "You would
then kiss me upon leaving and
entering the house," she said.
"And I wish you were a liilav"
replied the husband.
"Why?"
"Then I would shake you for
seven days and' put you away
for the remainder of the year."

Exclusive Evidence
The question of conclusive 'evi-
dence is raised by the following
dialogue overheard between two
students of Rabbinics:
Beryl: "It is a well-known fact
that no pious JeW is permitted
to walk about with his head un-
covered, • and yet how is. it that
in our Torah there is no com-
mandment to this effect?"
Shmeryl: "You are greatly
mistaken. There are numerous
places in the Torah where the
sin of hatlessness is pointed out
to us. Take, for example, the
passage in Genesis which tells us
that Jacob went out from Beer-
sheba and went toward Haran.
Now, I ask you, do you think for
a moment that a good and pious
Jew like the Patriarch Jacob
would walk such a long distance
without. a hat?"

"Wheelbarrow" Religion
It was Richard•Baxter, the Eng-
lish divine, who often said that
certain people possessed "wheel-
barrow religion."
"Why do you say that?" • a
friend asked,
"Because," replied Baxter,
"they go only when they are
shoved."

40 Hechalutz Members
Embark for Palestine
NEW YORK (JTA) — Forty
American members of the Hecha-
lutz movement sailed for Pales-
tine to settle in various coopera-
tive colonies there. Five children,
the youngest eight months old,
sailed with their parents aboard
the S.S. Marine Shark.
The prospective settlers were
trained for several years at two
training farms at Hightstown and
Cream Ridge, N. J. They will
enter agriculture, engineering,
education and other fields as
members of the Histadruth, the
Jewish labor federation. This is
the f o u-r t h Hechalutz-trained
group to leave within the last
eight months. Also sailing are
eight American ex-servicemen
who will attend the Hebrew Uni-
versity and the Haifa Technicon
under the provisions of the GI

Opposition Seen
To Emigration by
Jews in Hungary
BUDAPEST (JTA)—Anti-emi-
gration sentiments which have
been openly manifeeed by gov-
ernmental sources are now crop-
ping up in Jewish circles. --
At a meeting in Pecs, Chief
Rabbi Ferenc Hevesi urged the.
Jews to forgive the Hungarians
for the sufferings visited upon
them.
The Jewish community, how-
ever, still has many grievances.
Under the proposed land reform
law, there is a danger that Jews
will not recover property confis-
cated from them in 1942. Many
Jews are also embittered by the
delay in repatriating all Hun-
garian Jews who were deported ,
by the Nazis. Many are still miss-
ing, and nothing is known of their
situation or whereabouts.

Reblooming after 23 years,
"Abie's Irish Rose" is scheduled
to pour additional Wealth into the
lap of writer Anne Nichols. It
was 23 years ago. that the play
made its bow. Since then it has
made millions. It ran five and a
half years on the New York
stage. - It cleaned up when Para-
mount screened it, then became
a hit on the air, and now Bing
Crosby and Author Nichols be-
lieve their new screen version
will mean another heavy dollar

Comedian Eddie Cantor has
finally staged the network debut
of the next-youngest of his five
quip-lashed daughters when
Marilyn Cantor appeared as guest
on the "Eddie Cantor Show" over
NBC the other day. Marilyn, 20,
is the only one of the Cantor
girls to seek a theatrical career.
The other's, Margie, Edna, Natalie
and Janet, prefer to sit on -the
Slidelines and applaud. Marilyn,:
no novice in the entertainment
world, has -filled a highly suc-
cessful singing engagement this
season at Leon and Eddie's night
club in New York. Rut Papa
Eddie tells me: "Marilyn inherits
her mother's talent and her fath-
er's looks!"
