Universalizing Memories

Editor's note: This is the
final column in the 70 year
career of our Editor Emeritus,
who died Feb. 17.

I

mportant memorializa-
tions are now on the
human agenda, making
it compelling for every-
one everywhere to "Never
Forget" which becomes
"Never Repeat." While pro-
grams have been on the
agenda condemning every-
thing related to the Holo-
caust, the U.S. stance as
summarized in my Commen-
tary last week demands
firmness and suggests ac-
tion.
There is significance in a
letter that went out to the
churches and clergy of Mar-
quette County in Michigan
to memorialize the 50th an-
niversary of the horrors. The
Interfaith Dialogue Com-
mittee of Marquette County
issued a widespread appeal
for participation at a func-
tion to be held April 25 at St.
Paul's Episcopal Church in
Marquette. The following
was offered regarding the
observance:

A half century after the
most tragic and horrify-
ing events in world histo-
ry which people believed
"could never happen
again," the specters of
neo-Nazi, KKK, and other
hate groups are now
occurring in former
Yugoslavia, the former
Soviet states and even in
the United States. In
Germany we are seeing a
frightening resurgence of
the Nazi specter which the
Government is having
trouble trying to control
and stop. With these
world events, it is more
important than ever to
recall the 12 years of hate,
torture and murder that
took place in Europe
under Hitler and the Nazi
regime.
To commemorate and
remember the Holocaust
and assure its events will
never occur again ...
there will be prayers read
by members of various
churches in Marquette
County and several ad-
dresses given pertaining
to the Holocaust and how
important it is to recall
this great tragedy and
emphasize its importance
to our future as human
beings.

Philip Slomovitz, 1896-1993

This must not be judged as
mere repetition of a com-
mitment to eliminate a pre-
judice. It comes in a
humanizing period of history
when an interfaith move-
ment to eliminate guilt is
addressed to all faiths. It
comes from the organized
interfaith community in the
Upper Peninsula. It is to be
treated as a universal call to
action by all, at all times.
Under the clarion call and
title of Thanks To Scan-
danavia, Inc., there is now a
functioning scholarship fund
that is the pride of this
cause. We learn from a
communication from
Richard Netter to Ambas-
sador Loret Ruppe at the
American Embassy in Olso,
Norway :

With the support of so
many American friends,
for almost thirty years
Thanks To Scandanavia
has worked to show grati-
tude to the Scandanavian
people for protecting and
saving their Jewish com-
patriots and others who
fled from countries in
Europe during the Second
World War. Knowledge
continues to spread
throughout the United
States about the dramatic
events in Denmark,
Finland, Norway and
Sweden.
Thanks To Scandanavia
is also sponsoring a lec-
ture series at ten univer-
sities across the United
States ... This series will
make a significant con-
tribution to our knowl-
edge of Scandanavia,
Jewry and the Holocaust.
The lectures and addi-
tional essays will be

published by a universit
press. Furthermor
Thanks To Scandanavi
will intensify the distrib
tion of its publications o
Scandanavia and othe
educational material
that focus on the histo
of the Second World W
and the history of Sc
danavia's Jewish popul .
tion.
In 30 years, Thanks T
Scandanavia has awar
ed over 1,000 grants t
Scandanavian student
educators, researcher
and doctors. Through
of 50th Anniversar
events, Thanks To Sca
danavia will seek t
enlarge its fellowshi
program and to add to it
capital fund of ove
$3,500,000. This wil
enable us to assist a large
number of Scandanavi
students who wish t
study in the United State
and increase grants .. .

In the movement create
to remember the Holocaus
and thereby avoid repeti
tion, condemn and preven
the occurrences of horrors
we now include the gloriou
Thanks To Scandanavia
Inc. The Scandanavia
humanizations have becom
a means of world unificatio
and are raising the stan
dards of justice for all hu
manity. These, therefore
become glorious matters fo
observations.
The achievements note
recall the inspiration of th
Cohodas family and the en
thusiastic direction o
Willard Cohodas and his as
sociates in Marquette
