SON-IN-LAW OF
EINSTEIN PLANS
FARM SCHOOL
The First Step in the Proposed
Establishment of an Agricul
tural School
New York (WNS)—The first
step in the proposed establishment
of an agricultural school which
woul^l train American Jewish
youth in farming, and thus pre
vent them from overcrowding the
professions, will be taken at a din
ner on May 13, at the Waldorf-
Astoria, of Le Renouveau, a new
Jewish back-to-the-land move
ment founded in France by Dr.
Dmitri Marianoff, son-in-law of
Professor Albert Einstein, It was
announced by Dr. Marianoff on
his arrival in America. Le Ren-
oveau has already founded such
a school at Born, France, where
a number of German Jewish pro
fessional men are being trained
for agriculture. The Born school,
started in 1933, has already dem
onstrated its practicability by
graduating trained farmers equip
ped for agriculture in Palestine
or in other untilled areas of what
ever nation will admit them, Dr.
Marianoff said. The May 13th din
ner at which Dr. Einstein will be
guest of honor, will mark the first
public appeal for the farm school
in this country. Dr. Marianoff pro
poses to etablish this school
somewhere in the eastern part of
the United States on a site of
three or four hundred acres. The
curriculum would, covering a per
iod of a year and a half to two
years, include courses in general
agriculture, veterinary care, dairy
farming, rural law, agricultural
chemisty, viniculture, aboriculture
and horticulture. One hundred
students from sixteen to thirty-
five years of age would be admit
ted. and some of them would be
trained to teach other Jewish
youth.

cal demonstration of tolerance,
this city’s business establishments
were closed for three hours by
proclamation of the mayor in or
der to enable the Christians to
meditate in “memory of the Sac
red Atonement.” This notable
event is credited to Joe Simon,
commissioner of streets and parks,
who presented a resolution to his
fellow commissioners calling on
Mayor Giles to issue a proclama-
i tion suspending all public and
! private business from noon until
1 three p. m. Simon also presented
a draft of a proclamation declar-
i ing that people of all faiths ap
proved a period of pious medita
tion for the Christians of Corpus
Christi to permit them to medi
tate upon the death on the Cross.
The text of Mr. Simon’s resolu-
ion follows:
“In keeping with the Jeffer
sonian principles embodied in our
Constitution, and because I be
lieve every man should practice
his religion according to the dic
tates of his own conscience, and
ers join me in requesting the Hon
orable Mayor of Corpus Christi
to issue a proclamation.”

Leaders of the peace movement
throughout the world credit World
Peaceways with furthering the
most advanced program of peace
education today. It was in the
interest of that movement that
the writer of this article visited
several foreign countries this sum
mer and established World Peace-
ways organizations in many cap
itals. Similar organizations are
springing up in every part of the
globe, most recently in th» Dutch
East Indies, Australia and South
America. World Peaceways utiliz
es the methods of modern bus
iness and industry and has suc
ceeded in going even further, by
mUsting the actual cooperation of
business and industry. The writ
er was invited to return to Gene
va this September to broadcast,
over the League’s radio station,
a daily commentary on the ses
sions of the League’s Assembly,
scheduled to meet that month.
The founder of World Peace-
ways was Mrs. Theresa Mayer Dur-
lach of New York City. The
amazing progress achieved since
she launched the organization In
1931, under the name of World
Peace Posters, necessitated the
building of an order that will make
unnecessary the resort to arms for
the setflement of any internation
al issue. The point of view is
definitely gaining acceptance that

called by men and women across
the Atlantic is that of Professor
Albert Einstein. He is one of many
wfiom the Nazis have tried to
stigmatize by making the term
"pacifist” synonymous with “trai
tor to the State.” His statment
made in the United States on one
of his earlier visits, that if two
per cent of the effectives of a
country could be urged to pledge
resistance to war. war would be
successfully prevented, was the in
spiration of a movement among
war-resisters in this country.
During the past year much has
been written in the United States
in reference to the manufacturers,
of munitions. The high-water
mark of that discussion was the
decision of the United States Sen
ate to appoint a committee under
Senator Gerald P. Nye, to investi
gate the arms traffic of the
United States. Since one of the
authors of one of the important
books on this question, “The Mer
chants of Death,” has made the
statement, in an article published
in the Southern Israelite Magazine
of May, 1934, that there are no
Jewish manufacturers of muni
tions, the people of the United
States will watch with interest the
activities of the Nye Committee,
which is scheduled to begin its
hearings in September.
In addition to the men and
women I have • mentioned who
have attained world-wide recog
nition because of the sweeping im
plications and results of their
plans, there is a considerable body
of men and women who, as in
ternational lawyers, writers on
! economic subjects, members of
governments and workers in peace
organizations, are making impor-
! tant contributions toward the
