And that the President of the Zentral
Verein fur Deutsche Staatsburger Judi-

of the German Zionist Federation pleaded
against Jewish public demonstrations at
this time? . . .
The American Jewish Committee and
the B'nai B’rith feel as much concern for
German Jewry as does the American
Jewish Congress. ... As a matter of
fact, we wager that the members of the
Jewish Committee and of the B'nai B’rith
have many more relatives in Germany
per capita than do the American Jewish
Congress members. . . . There is one thing
that Wise forgets these days. . . . He is
far from persona grata in Washington,
and it would he much more practical if
he would remain in the background and
let somebody else pose for the Capital
photographers. . . . Some day the break
ing off of the negotiations between the
American Jewish Committee and the
American Jewish Congress will have to
he explained. . . . Some day the people
will realize that German Jewry was
saved by the self-effacing activities of a
Jewish leader whose name has not figured
in the newspapers. . . . Judge Proskauer,
James N. Rosenberg and Judge Irving
Lehman knew and still know why they
counseled against demonstrations at this
time.
Walter Winchell is now doing vaude

houses around New York. ... He par

speaks about Hitler he gets serious. . . .
Addressing an open letter to the Nazi
chief, W. W. says:
“ADOLPH LA HITLER, The Reich
stag, Berlin, Germany: I don't know just
how to address a person like you, so I'll
just leave off the salutation, if you don’t
mind. However, I’ve no doubt about
what I want to say to you, so I’ll get
right down to business.
“Not so long ago my fellow reporter,
Mr. Knickerbocker of the Post, got a fine
story in which he explained that your se
lection as Chancellor was strictly the re
sult of a series of accidents and mis
understandings. I goes hy now most of
the world realizes that it must have been
blundering chance, rather than ability,
that elevated you to your present high
post, because no man of ability could
comfort himself as you have done. No
man of brains, who had read a page of
history in his life, would attempt to base
his whole scheme of government on op
pression. Didn’t you ever hear of the

THE GERMAN SITUATION
{Continued from page 12)
“The German Nationalists are forcing
the world to see something more than a
“Jewish question" in the Reich. By their
methods and manifestos they are taking
the matter out of the realm of narrow
race hatred and making it appear one of
hvimanity and civilization itself. The
proposal is not to deprive 600,000 people
in Germany of their lives, hut only of
their livelihood. “You take away my
life who “take away the means hy which
I “live.” There is to he, moreover, a
sweeping condemnation of children to
ignorance as well as to starvation; the
doors of opportunity are to he slammed
in the faces of ambitious and talented
youth; a whole series of medieval re-
structions and oppressions are to he re
vived. To crown all, if humane citizens
of other countries venture to raise their
voices against what seem to them bar
barous measures, striking down the in
nocent along with the guilty, the victims
are to he held as “hostages” until foreign
governments take steps to silence the ex
pression of generous and liberal senti
ments. The whole program is marked bv
such extremes not only of cruelty hut un
reason that it seems incredible. It is hard
to believe that the moderate men in the
New German Government can sanction
it. They must he inclined to repudiate
it. So must be the mass of the educated
German people. Until forced to admit
the contrary we shall hope that the “ulti
mate approval" which the Nazis confess
has not yet been given to them will never
he forthcoming.
“The thing has already gone far be
yond an attack upon a single race or
religion. No appeal to agelong prejudice
will suffice in a case like the present.
Fundamental issues of humane and civi
lized government have pushed into the
background the claims and charges with
which the ferocious agitation in Germany
started. Feelings have been roused which
transcend political boundaries or defini
tions of race. No matter what people
are called, or what religion they profess,
the modern world cannot sit hy in silence
when they are singled out for exceptional
punishment in the mass. Germans ought
not to forget the outcry of the modern
world over the Turkish massacres in
Bulgaria years ago. Sympathy and aid
for Armenian sufferers and outlaws had
nothing to do with their descent or lan
guage or religious beliefs. They were
thought of as helpless human heings in
the habitations of cruelty, and that was
enough. It is enough today.
"The Nazi scheme of wholesale op
pression is untielievahle. If attempted it
will prove to he unworkable. It will do
more harm to those who set about
executing it than it possibly can to those
whom they would drive to exile or death.
Sensible Germans must see that their
rulers are proposing to make an en
lightened people lurch hack into the Dark
Ages. The thing seems such a frightful
anachronism that every friend of the
German people, every admirer of the
high qualities which they have often
shown, must cling to hope that some way
out of the horrible mess into which the
Hitler regime seems bent on plunging the
Reich may he discovered.”
German stocks and bonds continued to
fall in America and in Berlin, as no indi
cation came from the Nazi Government
that the Jewish boycott would be rigor
ously condemned and prevented. Al
though the censorship and the virtual
military dictatorship make it impossible
for Germans opposed to the Government
to express their views, there was a wide
spread undercurrent of hinting that the
carrying through of the anti-Jewish boy
cott would ruin Germany.
Germany will have more than America
to contend with, however, if she goes
through her present boycott plans. For
an emotional session of the House of
Lords in England was devoted to an ap
peal to Germany’s "better judgment" and
an attack upon her intolerance. Lord
Reading led the forces of rebuke to Ger
many. He was seconded by Lord Cecil,
and other distinguished members of the
House. Sir John Simon, Foreign Secre
tary, made it clear that Great Britain
was following the situation in Germany
very carefully. He indicated his belief,
however, that nothing could he done
through the League of Nations to solve
the problem.
