Weinberg is Appointed
Asst. Defense Director
Herbert Bayard Swope was
honored on Dec. 20 with a gold
medal from "Interfaith in Ac-
tion."
His first Jewish interest was
the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
More than 20 years ago Swope
was asked by the late Felix
M. Warburg to make a study
of the work of the JTA. Since
then Swope has been a powerful
believer and supporter of the
JTA.
During. the Hitler era Swope
called himself a "foul weather"
Jew—a term originally coined
by Justice Brandeis. But this
"foul weather" Jew has proven
to be a faithful and constant
servant of the Jewish cause.
There is hardly any important
Jewish organization to which he
has not freely given of his time
and advice.
It was Swope who as executive
editor of the New York World
exposed the Ku Klux Klan. He
combines in a unique way know-
ledge and courage. He does not
know how to spell the word
"fear."
A brilliant newspaperman
himself, it is no accident that
Swope is particularly interested
in the work of newspapers and
news agencies. By creating a
well informed public opinion
Swope feels we get down to the
roots of the' evils which beset
mankind. He feels strongly that
there would be less need for
charity if the sinster forces of
prejudice and persecution were
effectively combatted by the
force of an enlightened public
opinion. That was why Swope
turned down Mr. Warburg when
he urged him t m accept the
chairmanship of the Jewish
Telegraphic Agency.
Two men have written them-
selVes with indelible ink into
the history of the JTA: Louis
Marshall and Herbert Bayard
Swope.
I have been to many countries
and met many hundreds of
leaders in all walks of life. I
have never encountered one who
combined greater ability, pride
and genuine humaneness. He is
the greatest experience in my
life and that of JTA. I feel I
have rendered a great service to
our community by arousing
Swope's interest in the Jewish
problem.
Swope is a truly great man.
WASHINGTON, (AJP) — One
of America's top business brains
who started at the bottom 40
years ago as a porter polishing
spittoons was appointed as As-
sistant Director of Defense Mo-
bilization this week to help gear
America for the possible trou-
bled days ahead - in a war-
shaken world.
Sidifey J. Weinberg, known
for years as one of the nation's
foremost hands at solving sup-
ply and production problems,
received the post shortly after
Charles E. Wilson took office as
Director of Defense Mobiliza-
tion.
Mr. Weinberg was the second
American Jew to be asked to
serve his country in the top
echelon during recent weeks.
Last month President Truman
named Mrs. Anna M. Rosenberg
to the post of Assistant Secre-
tary of Defense.
The dynamic little Mr. Wein-
berg — he stands just 5-foot
4-inches — served in the Navy
during World War I. For years
he was a member of the busi-
ness advisor_y council for the
Department of Commerce.
A senior partner of Goldman,
Sachs & Co., a large New York
investment banking firm, Mr.
Weinberg was instrumental ill
helping draw up the Conway
Committee report on the refor-
mation of the Stock Exchange
in the early 1930s, although not
formally a member of the com-
mittee.
The late FDR once offered
Weinberg the post of ambassa-
dor to Russia, but he declined
the offer. Instead the Jewish
banker and financial whiz aided
in the exploration of settlement
