THE SOUTHERN ISRAELITE *
STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL + + +
Jid-Hits from Everywhere + + + by phineas j. biron
At la*t it ha-* been decided that the
JDC and the A PC are having a joint
campaign for German Jewish relief . . .
Negotiation- were, in fact, carried on to
include the Association of Jewish Wel
fare Federation-, in the combined cam
paign. but that merger wn vetoed by the
N. Y. Federation. . . . I'he Federations
of other cities, where money-raising is
pretty hard the*r da\*. had no objection
to the hook-up. but deferred to the New
N«»rk body, whose $5,000,000 budget al
ways has a good start because of its
$2,000,000 endowment . . . Which reminds
us that the employes of the V Y. Feder
ation are agitating for a restoration of
their salaries to the pre-bank-holiday
level. . . . That other instrument for rais
ing funds for German Jewish relief, the
“Romance of a People" pageant, got the
endorsement of Fddie Cantor recently.
. . . It vs as at Philadelphia that Fddie,
after witnessing a pageant rehearsal, ex
pressed his delight with the spirit of
solidarity this gigantic undertaking tr
veals in American Jewry. . . .
Elizabeth Bergner, the German actress
who is making such a hit in London, i-
another of the Jewish exiles from Na/i
land. . . . On Broadway there is talk
to the effect that Max Reinhardt, the
German Jewish producer who i- now-
making Pari- -it up and take notice, will
come to Radio City as the successor of
Rox\. . . . Prince l-nui* Ferdinand von
Hohen/ollern, son of the German Crown
Prince and now a visitor on these shores,
finds it wise, while here, to emphasize
that some of his best friend* are Jews.
. . . But, he add*, the expression of any
such sentiments in Xaziland would result
in his decapitation And that brings
us to the storv told in a German news
paper published at Prague: Moses, Nero
and Goebbels, it seems, were boasting of
tht-ir exploits . . . "1,” said Moses,
“burned a bush, and still the bush wasn’t
burned” . . . “That's nothing,” bragged
Nero, “I burned Rome, and when I got
through there wasn't much left” . . .
“Yah,” sneered Goebbels, "I’m l»etter
than the two of you . . . I'm the fellow
who burned the Reichstag—and then
they cut off another chap’s head for
it.” . . .
Ezra Shapiro, the 31-year-old Cleve
land Zionist leader, is not only an ex
cellent tenor but the most important mem
ber of the cabinet of his city’s Mayor
. . . Lord Duveen of Millbank, the first
art dealer to sit in the British House of
Lords, think* nothing of paying price*
running into *ix figures for old masters
. . . NR A Deputy Administrator Sol
Rosenblatt of the cinema and theatre
code* is a recent addition to the list of
Kentucky colonel*. . . . Did we ever tell
you the A’iddish version of NRA, to wit,
"Nit Reden Asach?” . . . Ambassador and
Mrs. Je**e I. Straus are most popular
among stewards and such on ocean liners.
a contributing factor being the 50-dollar
tips they hand out at the end of a trip . . .
Very quietly a far-reaching counter
espionage svxtem to combat Na/i activi
ties in the U. S. is being organized by a
wealthy Jewish World War veteran who
saw service in the Intelligence Division
of the British Army and who believe*
that the Jew* should organize a shirt
movement similar to the Khaki and Sil
ver Shirt organizations. . . . The argu
ment which James G. McDonald, High
Commissioner for German Jewish Refu
gee*, will u*e to get sizable contributions
for hi* relief work from our rich co-re
ligionist* is that if they don’t cough up
for the fight against anti-Semitism in
Germain they will soon have to con
tribute to fund* to combat anti-Jewish
movements on these shores . . . The
JDC's and IP As campaigns for the re
lief of German Jews are all up in the
air pending a decision on whether they
are to function independently or jointly.
. . . Felix M. Warburg and Nathan
Straus, Jr., are straining every effort to
bring alxmt a joint campaign, but the
inner official* of Inith the Zionist and
JIH' camp* are opposed to the idea,
though for entirely different reasons. . . .
I'he American League for the Defense
of Jewish Right*, which, having origi
nated the idea of the anti-Nazi boycott,
holds a moral patent for it, ha* offered
to give over t<> the American Jewish
Congress the privilege of collecting funds
for boycott activities on condition that
the Congress add to it* payroll the names
of two member* of the League . . .
Suzanne Bloch, daughter of composer
Ernest, i* following in her father's foot
step* so effectively that she ha* been put
on the faculty of New A ork’* New Music
School. . . . Max I). Strtier, the noted
lawyer whose name i* put to such ex
cellent u*e in the musical comedy success
“I,rt ’Em Eat Cake," helped Iamis Min
sky, the late realtor and burlesque pro
ducer, to build hi* East Side theatres.
... If you should be in New A'ork !*•-
fore the end of the month do stop in at
the Seligmann Galleries and take a h>nk
at the one-man show of Max Band, the
Russian Jewish painter. . . . And when
you visit Philadelphia look over the Fel*
Planetarium, which the <iuaker Town
owes to Samuel S. Fel* and where you
can actually *ee the movements of the
star*. ... In the Park Avenue palace of
George Blumenthal, newly elected Presi
dent of the Metropolitan Museum, is a
swimming pool the wall* of which are
decorated with murals of undersea life.
. . . A'ou know, of course, that one of
the principal character* in James Joyce’s
"Ulysses,” the b<w»k which now is being
published by Random House, having been
declared kosher by the courts, is an Irish
Jew by the name of Leopold Bloom. . . .
