Exodus Deaths Move Zionist
Youth to Picket British Consul
The death of three Jews on Exodus 1947, among them
William ;Bernstein of Los Angeles, has so deeply stirred the
youth f:if America that in every large community in the
country youngsters speedily mobilized picket lines in front
of British consulates to protest against British acts.
In Detroit, a group of Habonim, labor Zionist youth
movement came frown Habonim's
Camp near Kinneret, near Chel-
sea. Mich., quickly gathered a
number of their friends, pre-
pared signs condemning "British
piracy," and marched in protest
of the National Bank Bldg.
Several---Z-FA and Hashomer
Hatzair members joined the •pick-
et line and a number of the boys
and girls went to the British
consulate at 1574 National Bank
Bldg. to express their resentment
to Pro-Consul William L. Laing.
The group, under the leader-
ship of David J. Eisenberg, 19-
year-old member of Habonim
and one of the supervisors of
Camp Kenneret, presented a let-
ter of protest to Laing. At the
same time they applied to the
consulate for visas to go to Pales-
tine ,as another. mark of protest
against the British closed door
Palestine policy in the Jewish
National Home.
The protesting group received
encouragement from many,
groups in the city and were
heartened by word that the De-
troit and Wayne County Feder-
ation of Labor had protested
against the British policies and
reiterated demands for the im-
mediate establishment of the
Jewish National Home.

Problem of Too Many
The ZOA, with a membership of a quarter of a million, is faced
with a new problem these days, that of members. President Emanuel
Neumann is considering proposals on how to reach the maximum
number of members and educate them to full awareness of Zionist
issues. These proposals include, it is rumored. sub-dividing large dis-
tricts into smaller groups specifically for educational work. Having
been an educator himself, he is naturally preoccupied with the prob-
lem of Zionist education.

Haganah
Watch for a streamlined campaign by Haganah, with the backing
of accredited Jewish organizations in the U. S., to accomplish a
double purpose—I) tell Americans, Jews and non-Jews what Hag-
anah has been accomplishing for a quarter of a century now, and
especially in the war years and since, and 2) to immunize them
against appeals from mushroom committees, who have been raising
fabulous sums by means of publicity stunts and cloak and dagger
mystery interviews.

That's a Man
Are you disillusioned about the world and people? Then famil-
iarize yourself with one of the finest specimens of man we have ever
come across. He is America's leading manufacturer of modern furni-
ture, Louis Ferraguzzi, an Italian Catholic who is chairmaning im-
portant businessmen's divisions of the UJA and the Gewerkschaften
Campaign for the Histadruth. He is also a member of the American
Jewish Congress, Federation of Jewish Charities and the Catholic
Charities. He has often got into fist fights on street corners because
he has overheard some G. L. K. Smith bummers use "wop" or
"sheenie."

Books
Maurice Samuel is working on a Palestine novel. We are certain
that Samuelas work will replace in people's memories the allegedly
"best" novel on Palestine, Koestler's Thieves in the Night.
Jessey Coroelia's novel, "The Growing Roots" (Crown Publish-
ers), the story- cat an American Jewish family, is astoundingly dated in
its approach to Jewish problems as though it had been written before
Oswiecim. It should be a Lessing Rosenwald Book-of-the-Month. It
certainly has nothing to contribute to knowledge of Jews.

members of UNSCOP, under
Article 83 of the UN Charter.
It may also indicate that in

in Palestine a new form other
than trusteeship may be de-
vised for the t r a n s i tional
