One of the world's cruellest men is the subject of a new biography. In "Dr. Goebbels," published by Simon and Schus- ter, Roger Manvell and Hein- rich Fraenkel give a full ac- count of the activities of the evil person who created the modern schemes of destruction and whose inhuman designs were responsible for much of the misery people suffered un- der Nazism. Fraenkel had gathered much of the material before he and Manvell began work on this book, having escaped from Ger- many just before the Reichstag fire. The early life of Dr. Joseph JOSEPH GOEBBELS Goebbels is described by the biographers. Tracing his back- ground, they show that the man who became one of the worst Nazi terrorists had studied at the University of Heidelberg under the Jewish Professor of Literature Friedrich Gundolf. * * * Hadoar Association has issued a pamphlet containing "a cross days when his numerous arti- section of Hebrew writing in cles for the Berliner Tageblatt America"—a series of articles were being rejected by its Jew- that appeared in the Hebrew- ish editor, Theodor Eolff, and Richard Flisges was pressing him to read the works of the Jewish writers Marx and Rathe- By RABBI SAMUEL J.

His state- ments make it plain that he was fully aware of the atrocities that were being carried out in Germany and the occupied ter- ritories where the extermina- tion camps existed. . . . He wrote: 'The Fuehrer once more expressed his determination to clean up the Jews in Europe pitilessly. There must be no squeamish sentimentalism about it. The Jews have deserved the catastrophe that has now over- taken them. Their destruction will go hand in hand with the destructioa of our enemies. . . .

The cup of wine is the object over which the blessings are chanted in which the individual pronounces the sanctification of the atmosphere and the home on the Sabbath. Since it is thus used as a vehicle of sanctifica- tion, it is required to be filled up to the very brim so that man will understand that there can be no half measure of sanctifi- cation. This applies to the cup of wine, no matter what Mitz- vah it is used for. When it is used for Mitzvah it is known as a "Kos Shel Brochoh" (cup of blessing). It is at such occa- sions that man acknowledges the sanctity of his surroundings and takes cognizance of the Al- mighty's blessings. One is thus enjoined to be completely sanctified rather than partially cognizant of the nearness of the Almighty. Thus the cup must be full so that we realize fully whom we face at that moment.
