EVENTS
Chicago.—Junior Hadassah, the young
women’s Zionist organization of America,
opened its tenth annual convention in Chi
cago, at the J’alrner House, August 27.
Delegates from every part of the United
States discussed during the three days’
sessions the problems in membership,
fund-raising and cultural work confront
ing the 175 Units of Junior Hadassah and
laid plans for the year to come.
Miss Sulamith Schwartz, the National
President of Junior Hadassah addressed
the convention at the opening session.
Junior Hadassah reports for the year
a contribution of $35,452.50 towards its
three Palestinian projects: the Children’s
Village of Meier Shfeyah—where 100
children live a happy life free from the
usual institutional stigma;— Pardess An
na, an orange grove; and the Nurses’
Training School. In addition, Junior Ha
dassah contributed $10,681.49 to the Jew
ish National Fund—the fund which pur
chases land in Palestine in the name of the
Jewish people.
In America, Junior Hadassah has dis
tinguished itself in many ways during the
past year. 'The organization shows an
increase in membership and continued
progress in its cultural work.
Miss Esther Hrill of Chicago was con
vention chairman.
Stockholm, Sweden—The rise of the
Nazi movement was given a severe check
when the Swedish government issued an
older barring the wearing of political
uniforms effective at once. A ruling
tightening the restrictions on the posses
sion of lire-arms is also interpreted as
being directed against the Nazis who have
been gaining strength so rapidly in Swe
den that King Gustav is reported to have
gone to Austria for a first-hand study of
Chancellor Dolfuss’ method of dealing
with the Hitlerite agitation. Mail and
newspapers to Swedish citizens have re
cently been subjected to a sharp censor
ship in Germany through which they
have to pass. As a result the Swedish
postal authorities have arranged with
Czechoslovakia to have mail and news
papers from Prague reach Sweden by a
route which will avoid Germany.
Amsterdam—For participating in po
litical activities in the Heerlen mining
district, two Nazis have been expelled
from Holland simultaneously with the
promulgation of a police order announc
ing that all foreigners living in the Heer
len section will not be permitted to cross
the Dutch frontier to take part in Nazi
exercises in Germany. Violators of the
ruling will be expelled from Holland.
Istanbul—Fifty German-Jewish profes
sors and scientists exiled from Germany
have been engaged by Turkish universi
ties with the understanding that they must
learn the Turkish language within two
years and they must not engage in any
private practice.
New York, N. Y.—Magistrate Louis B.
Brodsky has earned the unique distinction
of being recommended for appointment
as chief justice of the new Family Court
by the Protestant Episcopal Mission So
ciety. Rev. L. E. Sutherland, superintend
ent of the Mission on Bleecker Street,
has written to Mayor O’Brien, saying that
the contact his organization has had with
Magistrate Brodsky had convinced him
of the Magistrate’s worth and under
standing of human problems and his tine
social vision.
Berlin—Either through design or acci
dent, the ambassadors to Germany from
all the principal nations of Europe will
find it impossible to attend the conven
tion of National Socialists to be held at
Nurenberg on August 30. All of the for
eign envoys have been invited but few
of them will be present. United States
Ambassador William Dodd will be occu
pied with presenting his credentials to
President von Hindenburg and with the
ensuing diplomatic functions. The am
bassadors of England and Austria are on
leave, while the envoys of France, Po
land, Czechoslovakia and Roumania will
be detained in Berlin by pressing duties.
Of all the great powers only Italy may
be represented by her ambassador.
Berlin—In an article in the Voelkische
Beobachter, Alfred Rosenberg, Hitler’s
personal foreign minister, makes a bitter
attack on Lord Melchett and on the Zion
ist Congress. He declares that Lord Mel
chett and the Zionist Congress are organ
izing a boycott against Germany and
charges that the plan to settle 200,000
German Jews in Palestine is a scheme
to deprive Germany of an opportunity
to revenge itself on the German Jews for
any measures Jewry outside of Germany
may take. Rosenberg warns that Germany
may bar all Jews from leaving Germany
and contends that all measures taken
against the Jews are in conformity with
German law.
T HE SITUATION I N G E R M A N Y
(Continued from page 4)
an individual tragedy of several scores
of thousands of Jewish men and women;
it is the collective tragedy of a people
whose choice ideal is being smashed. In
a sense, it is probably the most poignant
and pitiful thing happening in Germany
at present. There may be events more
spectacularly cruel in Nazidom, but noth
ing more mean than this meanest of all
the Nazi acts.
The history of Jewish persecution has
never known anything more perverse than
this. The least useful part of the Jewish
community is privileged, the most useful
persecuted; the rich and ostentatious,
who more than once brought shame upon
their people, arc exempted, the poor and
humble, who always worked and suffered
in silence, are stricken down; Jewish
finance is spared, and labor is uprooted;
big business is tolerated, and professions
are exterminated; all that is non-produc
tive in Jewish life is left undisturbed,
while the most inhuman attack is directed
against everything which is non-parasitic.
Whether the Nazis are conscious of the
underlying principle of their Jewish
policy, or not, it is a concentrated effort to
drive the Jews back to the Ghetto, not
only politically and socially, but above all
economically; back to the mediaeval occu
pations.
The Nazi movement lays claim to
Labor sympathies and to a certain revo
lutionary spirit. There are some people
who even take this claim seriously, and
think and speak of the Nazis as of mis
guided but sincere revolutionists with
Labor inclinations. The pitiful tragedy
of Jewish Labor in Germany, more than
anything else, exposes the fallacy of such
a belief. What people with the remotest
Labor sentiment, let alone a healthy Labor
instinct, could be guilty of such a das
tardly crime against working men and
women? What movement with the
slighted affinity to social progress, let
alone Revolution, could go so completely
back to Mediaevalism?
