For President

DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER

Paul Warburg

Bernard M. Baruch

Lt. Col.

Veteran statesman and adviser to

Democratic presidents in two world -

Wars.

Former representative of the Board of Economic Warfare under
Roosevelt, now Chairman of the Citizens Committee for Eisen-
hower in New York State, and leader in Jewish communal affairs.

(In a hand-written letter to Dwight D.
Eisenhower) "Since I have known_ you
as a major, I have grown to respect and
admire your character, ability, gentle-
ness but firmness and above all the
high purposes that have motivated you
in all circumstances.

"America nand the world are in need of
the leadership of a personality who has the
most profound understanding of the need for
harmony amongst nations and international
cooperation. Eisenhower is such a man.

"Eisenhower possesses a deep, inborn
feeling for - justice, human rights and for the
equality of all peoples and races. This, I can
attest from personal experience. In North
Africa I was the liaison officer between Eisen-
hower's staff and the diplomatic corps under
Ambassador Robert Murphy. At that time the
Vichy anti-Jewish laws prevailed in North
Africa:---laws which robbed the Jews of their
previous rights as French citizens. When
Eisenhower learned of this, he protested very
strongly. He argued that such a situation
could not be tolerated under the American
flag. The State Department was loathe to
outlaw these discriminatory laws aginst the
Jews, but General Eisenhower was 'insistent.
At his urgent request, Assistant Secretary of
War, John McCloy made a special trip to
North Africa; wiped out the Vichy laws and
returned to the Jews their rights as citizens."

"Your abhorrence of cant, hypocrisy,
intolerance in all fields of human rela-
tions have brought affection with respect
and admiration.

"All good wishes for whatever you
undertake."

William B, Herlands

"America has very few statesmen with genuine diplo-
matic experience, with worldly knowledge and knowledge
of the world. Eisenhower is .the only one who possesses
these virtues. He won't have to look for experts to make
our policies. He himself is the expert, to whom our presi-
dents entrusted the faith of American and world peace.

"His vision, his worldly knowledge and experience in
the international arena are sufficient guarantee for us
that under Eisenhower as president we will have the best
chances for world peace,"

Col. Fred. F. Greenman

Vice-Chairman of the Union of Ameri-
can Hebrew Congregations.

"The main problem for the world
today is the fear of Russian domination
and ruling of the world. I believe that
Eisenhower, who witnessed the horrors
of war. not from an office in Washing-
ton, but on the battlefield, will fight
more determinedly than anyone else to
preserve the peace.

"Eisenhower- with his knowledge of
the world his tact, acquaintance with
Russian leaders and their . way of think-
ing, is the most suitable man to-find the
road to peace and save our children
from the dangers and tragedies of war.
Should, however, God forbid, a war
break out, I would feel safer for the
life of my son with Eisenhower as Presi-
dent. His wide experience, as comman-
der, as administrator and statesman, are
our best guarantee that our children will
be best led, best provided and protected
and that our country will be strong and
victorious however the world situation
may develop."

"On October, 1945, on the joint invitation of the Secretary of War
and General Eisenhower, I accepted appointment as adviser to the theater
commander on Jewish affairs.

"The Jews of the world are everlastingly in debt to the armed forces
of the United States for the survival of a remnant of Israel in Europe. The
rescue phases of the grim task of liberation were miracles of accomplishment.
That there is in existence a people which constitutes the Jewish displaced
persons problem is attributable to the heroic and selfless devotion of many
medical and combat officers, and thousands of anonymous American soldiers
of all creeds. Rescue was followed by the Army's great accomplishments
in the second phase, that of semi-permanent living. The broad policy direc-
tives , Promulgated by this headquarters have been instinct with deep and
sympathetic understanding of the plight of these survivors of the horrors
of the concentration compi " (Whenever the Army is referred to, you can
substitute the name "Ike." He is the person who saw and sympathized with
the conditions that required action and he is the one who did something
about them.)

"I can state with pride
that General Eisenhower
has a high opinion about
the young Israeli army. He
viewed with admiration the
heroic fight of the Israeli
army against the Arabs. He
considered the Jewish vic-
tory comparable to the his-
toric achievements of King
David and the Maccabees.
Eisenhower, who- expressed
his sympathies many times
for the Jewish struggle in
the Holy Land, considered
the Jewish victory as one
for liberty and democracy.

"I am certain that Gen-
eral Eisenhower with his
great vision and realism
views Israel as
o n 1 y
true friend that America
has in the Middle East. and
that its army and the peo-
ple are the only -ones in
that region on whom Am-
erica can rely as an ally in
a decisive hour."

U NEED "IKE" TOO!
