Between You And Me
(Continued from page 4)
Published by Duell, Sloan and
Pearce, the book is the kind of
literature that keeps the reader
absorved to the very last page . . .
Another extremely interesting
book dealing with Russia is John
Scott’s “Duel for Europe” publish
ed by Houghton, Mifflin Co. . . .
Scott, who spent several years in'
Russia, tells very well the story ;
of the struggle between Stalin and
Hitler for control of the European
continent ... He considers it most
likely that Stalin will, after the
war, refuse to interfere in Europe,
will stay behind his western fron
tiers and will concentrate his at
tention on the reconstruction of
his devastated areas ... If the
Allied powers so desire may send
the Russian armies into Europe to
participate in the ‘establishment
of order’ along with the Anglo-
American troops which would
probably be there by that time
. . . After this aim had been ach
ieved, on the request of the Allied
commands. Stalin would retire be
hind his frontiers. Scott believes.
. . . He also comes to the conclu
sion that after the end of this
war, it is necessary that a Euro
pean confederation be established
in order to avoid another war be
fore today's children are out of
college. . .

Washington Echoes: Certain cir
cles in Washington are trying to
prove that Darlan is not respon
sible for the anti-Jewish legisla
tion of the Vichy government . . .
They claim that the anti-Jewish
laws promulgated by the Vichy
regime never originated with Dar
lan, but with Laval . . . Even the
mass-expulsion of Jews from un
occupied France to Nazi Germany
was done under pressure from La
val who invoked Article 19 of the
armistice, the Washington apolo
gists say . . . This article was in
terpreted to mean that all Jewish
refugees who previously resided
in Germany or in Nazi territories
must be turned over to the Nazi
authorities ... It is unfortunate,
the Washington iriends of Darlan
declare, that Retain and Darlan
felt obliged to go along in applying
this provision of the armistice to
Jewish residents in unoccupied
France who were not French cit
izens . . , On the other hand, the
pro-Darlan apologists point to the
fact that Darlan never permitted
the introduction of the yellow
Mogen David in unoccupied France
despite Nazi insistence ... He
also is reported to have opposed
the Nazi demand for “adjusting”
the anti-Jewish laws in unoccupied
France to jibe with those which
the Nazis instituted in the occu
pied part of France . . . This pro-
Darlan propaganda is, of course,
aimed at creating support for him
in this country, not only among
Jews, but also among the non-
Jews who still consider him an
opportunists . • .

. This and That: Did you hear of
Rabbi Stephen Wise's wish? . . .
He wants the following epitaph on
his gravestone: “Here rests a Jew
who gave no rest to Hitler” . .
By the time this is published. Rab
bi Wise will have appeared before
President Roosevelt with plans for
forcing the Nazis to discontinue
their massacres of Jews in Europe
... The Zionist Emergency Com
mittee is now organizing a delega-
| tion of Jewish editors to appear
before Elmer Davis, head of the
Office of War Information . . .
, Governor Lehman will leave for
overseas in a few weeks to organ
ize on the spot relief work for
nations liberated from the Nezis
I . His son, Sergeant-Pilot Leh
man, is now reported to be a long
step nearer his aim in life, which
is to drop a block-buster on the
Nazis from a bomber . . . Being a
married man and the father of a
child, he was prevented by Amer
ican draft regulations from joining
the U. S. air forces ... So he went
to Ottawa in September, 1941, and
enlisted in the Canadian Air Force
I and became No. R13S705.
JEA SPORTS
Basketball Tournament
In Full Swing
Four more games were played
in the JEA basketball league last
Sunday. In the “A" league, The
Four F contingent defeated the
AZA Collegians to take over un
disputed possession of first place.
The score was 42 to 34, but the
game was actually much closer
than the score indicates. At half
time the teams were deadlocked
at 18 points each and throughout
the third quarter the score see
sawed back and forth. In the final
period, Popkin, Collegian main
stay, was eliminated via the per
sonal foul route and only then did
the Four F team pull away. High
scorer for the fray was Popkin
with 17 tallies. Feldman led the
opponents with markers. The final
result may have been very differ- j
ent had Popkin been able to play j
the full game.
The standings in the “B” league :
remained the same as both the
SOZ “B” and Lichtenstein teams
won their games to maintain the'
tie for leadership. SOZ “B” com- J
pletely outclassed AZA 134. limit
ing them to 4 points while scoring !

21 themselves. Lichtenstein dis
played a smooth working squad
which beat th e Emanons 24 to 9.
This was th e first game for the
losers but even in defeat they
showed that they will have to be
reckoned with just as soon as they
can get themselves organized.
In the other “A” league tussle,
JTC outfought a surprisingly
scrappy AZA 357 team. The final
score was 33 to 24. The deciding
factor was Eisenberg, JTC oenter,
who scored 15 points to lead both
teams in scoring. The half time
score was 13 to 12 in JTC’s favor.
Another interesting program has
been arranged for this Sunday. At
2 p, m. the Girls’ league will play
its opening game. The Chaverim,
a newscomer to JEA basketball,
will open the day’s schedule
■against the Waldeans, old hands
at tournament play. At 3 p. m. the
Four F team will strive to retain
their hold on first place in the
“A” league against AZA 357 who
are still trying to gain their initial
victory. SOZ and th e AZA Colle
gians will collide at 4 p. m. and
third place in the “A” league will
be at stake. At 5 p. m. FOH and
AZA 357 “B” will wind up the
day’s games.
Each game on the card is a fea
ture and the public is invited to
attend.
