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. . . .

But when he 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 (Please turn to page 17) 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. A. O. Howard, i nc WHOLESALE Hats Caps Gloves Sweaters 175 Whitehall, S. W.
