Jews in Poland's ghettos. Due to
pressure from the Pope the form-

work on Saturdays.

The recent arrests of Pelly and
George Christians and the crack-
ing down on Father Coughlin,
indicates a new attitude on the
part of Attorney General Francis
Biddle—an attitude welcomed by
the American people. The gov-
ernmental agencies are recog-
nizing that, especially in time of
war, to allow unhampered the
abuse of civil liberties might re-
sult in a serious set-back of our
war effort However, the arrests
of a few individuals, even with
the promise of more to follow,
only scratch the surface, and we
still have hundreds of people
whose activities are destructive
to national morale.
During the month of April, a
new organization was formed,
calling itself “Americans for
peace,” founded by Horace Haase.
The latter has been closely asso-
ciated with America First acti-
vities and friendly to many of
New York’s known fascists. In
conjunction with the organization,
Haas is now publishing a news
letter which will appear semi-
monthly, calling itself “America’s
Hope,” with a subscription price
of $1.00 per year. Haase has open-
ed offices at Room 203, 1165
Broadway, New York City.
The first two paragraphs in the
No. 1 issue of the news letter put
out on April 15th indicate that
the entry of America into the
war has in no wise affected many
of the former so called isolation-
ist leaders. It reads as follows:
“The first shock is over. And
those who hate war because they
love their fellow men and their
country are beginning to recover
their balance. They are coming
to realize anew facts which were
crystal clear before. Their vision
is beginning to return after the
nerve shattering shock of the un_
expected attack upon Pearl Har-
bor. They are slowly coming to
see that while the Japanese as-
sault changed a few things it has
not affected in the least the
soundness of their pre-December
arguments.
"The global war they warned
against as the objective of the
empire builders and defenders
is upon us, but the fundamental
fact that it is a direct threat to
the very continuance of the Am-
erican way of life has not chang-
ed. It is true now, as before
December ?‘h, that such ambi-
tious waging of war will bring
upon us the very regimentation
we claim to hate so in Hitler’s
Germany and Mussolini’s Italy,
(not to mention—as we used to
—Stalin’s blood-soaked domain).
It is true now, as before Dec. 7th,
that the fruits of world-wide
military conquest are not of the
people’s seeking. It is true now,
as it was then, that—”
Dallas — Spring campaign re-
ports reaching the Council of
Jewish Federations and Welfare
Funds indicate that most Jewish
federations and Welfare funds in
the United States will either
equal or surpass amounts raised
in 1941, according to J. L. Zuber.
This picture, based on incom-
plete figures available from 41
communities, has proved un-
founded the fear that contribut-
ors would substitute war-time
obligations for their old respon-
sibilities.
“Conclusions of a rapid survey
conducted by the Council among
communities which are in the
final stage of their campaigns in.
elude the fact that capable and
vigorous leadership has been
found to take the place of men
now serving the country through-
other channels,” said Mr. Zuber.
“Big givers have not pointed to
soaring taxes and reduced their
gifts, but have raised their con-
tributions to new levels; the little
giver has not been crushed by in-
creasing costs of living, but has
made his influence in the Spring
campaigns felt in increasing
numbers.”
Campaign goals in 1942 are uni-
formly higher than last year. Of
88 communities which reported
1941 and 1942 goals, 80 increased,
four decreased and four are re-
peating last year’s goals. Of the
41 communities reporting, 21 have
already exceeded their 1941 re-
sults with Aiany pledges still un-
reported.
The majority of the figures
available at this point are based
on campaigns held in small and
medium-sized communities. The
larger cities are still in the early
stages of their drives.

London — All German Jews in
occupied France, Belgium and
Holland have been ordered to
“voluntarily” surrender their
property and other belongings
left behind in the Reich. They
have also been told to return
their passports to Nazi authorities.
In place of passports the Jews
now obtain documents denoting
that they are stateless.
