Neo-Nazi Group Apes Hitler

LUEBECK, Germany, (JTA)—
Another neo-Nazi party, com-
plete with its own newspaper,
has been formed and has even
been granted permission by mu-

propaganda posters. In deliber-

the new group styles itself
"RSDAP."

Ausubel's History Is Charged With
Giving False Picture of USSR Jews

author remains silent about
these cruel actions of the Jewish
communists."
The review of the book goes
on to say:
"Ausubel's treatment of Yid-
dish culture in the Soviet Union
is simply incredible. The last
sentence of this chapter gives
the author's conception. 'It is
precisely this process of cultural
assimilation and biological amal-
gamation which largely accounts
for the steady disintegration of
the Jewish group life, culture
and identity in the U.S.S.R.' Not
a word of the government's li-
quidation of the Yiddish schools,
newspapers, books, libraries, etc..
and the sudden disappearance
of outstanding Yiddish and He-
brew writers. What about Israel
Zinberg, the great historian of
Jewish literature, who for no
ascertain- ule reason was thrown
into prison where he died in
1938? What has become of all
the Yiddish literary lights—Da-
vid Bergelson, Nistor, David Hof-
steM, Arke Kushnirov, Peretz
Ma•kish and Itzek Feffer? It is
just ten years since Mikhaels
and Feffer visited America and
other lands in the name of the-
Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee
to unite the Yiddish literary fra-
ternity. That community has
been liquidated. It is just five
years since this ruthless liquida-
tion of the entire Yiddish cul-
ture and its writers in Soviet
Russia. All the inquiries, appeals,
cries, pleas and protests from
Jews . and others all over the
world have been in vain. The
protest against this liquidation
has been persisting since 1948,
but Mr. Ausubel apparently has
not heard of it."

Positive Attitudes
Reported Among U. S.
Jews ; Are Pro-Israel

NEW YORK, (JTA) — The
American Jewish Committee
made public a summary of a
preliminary report on a study
of the Jewish Community of
Trenton, New Jersey, conducted
by its Scientific Research De-
partment. The survey establish-
ed the following:

1. Overwhelmingly -Jews. young and
old. wish to retain their Jewish identity
and to maintain a Jewish community
within the framework of American
society.
2. The majority of Jews, young and
old, feel more comfortable with Jews
than with non-Jews. Adolescents, how-
ever, accept the non-Jew more easily
than do their parents even though they.
like the latter, reject inter-marriage in
a large majority of cases.
3. The large majority of Jews, young
and old, have at one time or another in
their lives experienced anti-Semitism. In
most cases it was of the "name-calling"
variety. In fewer instances other varie-
ties of prejudice or discrimination were
met.
4. Most of the Jews interviewed, when
asked to define Jewishness, replied in
terms of religion. Eight out of ten adults
and 97 percent of the teen-agers replied
in those terms. Apparently the gradual
disappearance or weakening of older
symbols of identification with Jewish-
ness has intensified the search for other
forms of belonging. Religion appears to
offer such a symbol to many teen-agers.
5. On the subject of Israel, 94 per-
cent of those interviewed expressed
general warm, f a v o r a b 1 e attitudes.
However, very few (only seven percent.)
expressed any desire to live in Israel.
This is true of both adults and children.
