"The Challenge of German Lit- 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.

UN 2-8914 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,- 000,000, despite preliminary esti- mates that the fund-raising organ- izations would increase their The board decided to endorse income this year by one-third. treasurer Aryeh L.
