Neglect Threatens
Survival—Not Bias,
Says Historian
BOSTON, (JTA)—Survival of
the Jewish people is threatened
not by anti-Semitism but by
neglect of the Jewish cultural
heritage, Dr. Solomon Grayzel,
editor of the Jewish Publication
Society of America, told the
women’s division of the Ameri
can Jewish Congress at its an
nual convention here.
The Jewish historian told the
700 delegates attending the ses
sion that “the Jews of America
are now engaged in a momentous
strug gle for self-preservation.
The enemy is not anti-Semitism,
as some of us like to believe,” he
asserted. “In fact, the anti-Sem
ite serves us as a scapegoat for
our own sin of weakening our
heritage. The real enemy is
abandonment of our cultural, re
ligious and historic traditions.”
Mrs. Thelma Richman of Phil
adelphia, president of the wom
en’s division, called for a 3-point
program aimed at “enriching
the Jewish contribution to the
extension of American freedoms
and enhancing Jewish cultural
identification.”
She urged a re-examination
of present techniques used in
transmitting Jewish ideals and
values, a reconstruction of the
institutions and instruments now
being utilized to insure the con
tinuity of the Jewish people and
a recommitment to the ancient
Jewish heritage of intellectual
faith and justice.

A TIME TO LAUGH Wailt Alls
From
“Laughs From Jewish Iaire”
By Jacob Richman
(Hebrew Publishing Company)
Giving an Account
of His Hat
The Russian people under the
regime of the Czars were not
only required to obey the law
but to do homage to the officers
of the law.
Talking to a government offi
cials with one’s hat on was an
effrontery, which merited a
severe reprimand.
A “gorodovoy,” or policeman,
in Leningrad once espied a Jew
walking in the street. From his
furtive glances and timid atti
tude the officer surmised that
he had no residential rights in
the metropolis.
Like a bird of prey, the gallant
officer swooped down on the
wandering Jew.
“Hey, hey!” he bellowed, grab
bing the Jew by the shoulder,
“where do you come from?”
“I come from Smargon,” meek
ly replied the intruder, forget
ting, in his confusion, to remove
his hat.
“And what about your hat?”
growled the surly policeman.
“My hat, too, comes from
Smargon,” tremblingly replied
the “criminal.”
