An article in the current issue
of American Heritage, by Allan
Nevins and Frank Ernest Hill,
under the title "Power is the
Prize," based on the authors'
history of the Fords, the third
volume of which will be publish-
ed next year by Charles Scrib-
ners Sons, again reveals the anti-
Jewish attitude of the automobile
magnate.
Describing the battle that was
conducted by Henry Ford II for
control of the automobile com-
pany and the ousting from power
of Harry Bennett, the authors
tell about the great influence
Bennett had over Henry Ford.
They state in this article:
"Henry Ford's obsession with
the idea that his beleaguering
enemies were held back , by Ben-
nett's wall of defense was some-
how sedulously nourished. One
of Ford's remarks chills the
blood. 'The Jews and Commu-
nists,' he said, 'have been work-
ing on poor Harry until he's al-
most out of his mind.' "
The current American Heri-
tage issue contains revealing and
impressive essays about the Cali-
fornia Gold Rush, the Beechers
"Miss Beecher in Hell" and the
Mormons. The fascinating story
about Henry David Thoreau is
supplemented by a portfolio of
impressive color photographs by
Eliot Porter and accompanying
quotations from Thoreau.

"We are exceedingly sorry to
lose Mr. Silver's services," Shaye
stated, "but we are proud that
he has been singled out by the
State of Israel to take over an
important job. I am happy for
him that this provides a fitting
climax in his brilliant career
of social work."
During his term of service the
JFCS has grown in size and pro-
fessional stature. It absorbed
the child placement program of
two children's agencies, has op-
erated since 1937 a program for
aiding in the adjustment of ref-
ugees and new immigrants, and
in 1942 es _ tablished a special de-
partment for services to aging.
Silver has participated in
leadership positions on many
committees of the United Com-
munity Services and the Jewish
Welfare Federation. His activity
