Werfel, Alfred Kantorowicz, Nelly
Sachs, Moses Mendelssohn, Ernst
Toiler, Jacob Wassermann, and
many others are under considera-
tion in the review of literary ac-
complishments in Germany and
the effects of recent events upon
their writings.
The works of Jewish writers are
analyzed and considerable atten-
tion is given to the effects of the
Nazi terror and to the "unprece-
dented exodus of German artists
and intellectuals" upon the rise
of Hitler to power in 1933. The
author reminds his readers that
"the new regime declared in no
uncertain terms that it intended
to promote only art of the Ger-
manic people (`voelkisch-german-
isch). In establishing this basis
for evaluating the various art
forms, the regime arbitrarily and
methodically began to extirpate
from public life all Jewish, com-
munistic and 'decadent' artists."
erature" edited by Horst S.
Daemmrich and Diether Hae-
nicke. The works of prominent
Jewish writers are among those
under discussion in this thorough
study.
"A symbolic auto-da-fe con-
sisting of a book burning of all
dissenting and non-conforming
German writers took place in all
parts of Germany on May 10,
1933," the authors recall, and
they list the distinguished writ-
ers whose works were included
in the burnings.
JERUSALEM (JTA)—More new
school buildings have been built
in the Ramallah area since the
Six-Day War than during the whole
period between 1948 and 1967, Dr.
Abbas Elkurd, Ramallah District
superintendent of education, re-
ported.
Since 1967, Dr. Elkurd said, there
have been 21 new schools in Ra-
mallah, 193 new classes and 164
new teachers who have teachers'
certificates.
In 1967, only 31 teachers in the
Ramallah district had academic
degrees, whereas today there are
80. Altogether 70 per cent of West
Bank teachers have at least teach-
ers' certificates.

The hair you pluck will come back to haunt
you.
Before you tweeze again. remember this
Quotation from one of the foremost medical
authorities on the subject of human hair:
"Plucking out strong hairs should never be
advised." Why not? Because the long term
penalties for continued plucking can he so
severe:
You may stimulate the
growth of additional hairs
around the one you pull
out.
2. You may cause succes-
sive generations of hair from
the abused follicle to grow
coarser, longer, darker.
3. You may cause skin irri-
tations, pits, scars.
4. You may make eventual
permanent removal slower
and costlier by pulling the
root and follicle out
of
place.
Such risks are need1P«

There is a most interesting re-
view of the events that marked
these destructive programs, and
the authors point out: "Despite
all Nazi efforts, the renaissance
of German literature scheduled to
take place after the exodus of all
`decadent' writers never occurred.
But, as the literature entered a
period of decline and apparent
decay within the boundaries of
the Reich, German literature out-
side the country flourished . . ."
Considerable attention is given
to such writers as the late Nelly
Sachs, the Nobel Prize winner for
poetry, and others who . remained
distinguished despite the Nazi ter-
ror.
The Daemmrich-Haenicke vol-
ume "The Challenge of German
Literature" is a significant supple-
! ment to the literature that takes
into account German experiences,
the Nazi onslaught, the terrorists
among the Nazis and the Germans
who defied them.
A collection of essays by Dr.
Charles W. Aring is featured in
the WSU Press volume "The Un-
derstanding Physician." Forty
years of medical practice and
teaching is illuminated in this
book.
For law students and practic-
ing attorneys, "American Law—
An Introductory Survey of Some
Principles—Cases and Texts,"
by Samuel I. Shuman and Nor-
bert D. West, will prove to be
a most valuable aid. This WSU
Press book is a valuable con-
tribution to legal literature.
Warner W. Pflug has compiled
the pictures and wrote the text
for the WSU volume "The UAW
in Pictures." It serves the labor
movement well as an historical
record.
Miss Sandra Yolles, as editor,
has a worthy share in this work.
Students of the labor movement
and those who seek information
about Detroit's history in the move-
ment will find this book of great
worth. — P. S.
Draft Counseling Service
SEATTLE (JTA)—A draft coun-
seling service has been started at
the Jewish Community Center and
at the Hillel Foundation at Wash-
ington University, funded by the
Seattle Jewish Federation and
Council and initially proposed by
Jewish students at the university.
Richard Platkin, a graduate stu-
dent in Urban Planning at the
university, who has been trained
as a draft counsellor by the Amer-
ican Friends Committee, serves at
the Jewish Community Center
three days a week.
Fund Raisers' Goal for Israel in '72
to Be up 12.5 Pct.: $645,000,000
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Next
year's target figure for the three
major organizations that raise
money for Israel has been in-
creased by 12.5 per cent over this
year's goal by a decision of the
Jewish Agency's board of gover-
nors.
It was reported to the board,
however, that the Jewish Agency
will have to reduce its proposed
expenditures for this year from
the planned $572,000,000 to $387,-
