astOr Assails Ford
For Alleged Drive
Against the Jews
The Rev. John Fl. Holmes
Also Denounces Program
of Presbyterians to Con.
vert Race to Christianity

The alleged anti-Semitic crusade
conducted by Henry Ford in his news
paper, The Dearborn Independent, and
the Presbyterian Church's program to
convert Jews to Christianity were de-
nounced by the Rev. John Haynes
Holmes, pastor of the Community
Church, at Carnegie Hall yesterday.
The occasion was union Thanksgiving
service participated in by the Com
munity Church, the Free Synagogue,
Temple Israel and the West Side Uni
tartan Church.
Words are inadequate" said DR..
Holmes, "to describe the indignation
and sense Of outrage which ell Chris
tians should feel at the crusade now
being preached against the Jews by
Mr. Henry Ford and his Dearborn In
dependent. 1t is q violation of the
first principles Of Christian brother
hood, and on this day to be denounced
as betrayal of all that we mean by
true Americanism.
"Scarcely less discreditable than
this open hostility and intolerance is
the condescension practiced toward
Jews by many sincere and well-inten
toned Christians. Here, for example,
is the campaign recently announced in
New York by the Presbyterians for tho
conversion of the Jews to Chri.tianity.
What, may we ask, do these Presbyte-
rians think they are doing in thus sug-
gesting that the Jews stand in need of
conversion?
"Do they mean to imply that the
Jews in this city are to be regarded as
pagans or have they forgotten that
Jesus was a Jew and that his gospel
was only peculiarly pure and noble
expression of all that was best in pro-
phetic Israel? For myself, l sympa-
thize with my Jewish brethren in their
Indignation at this campaign of conver-
sion put on foot by ardent but mis-
guided Christians.
"And may | suggest, what they per-
haps would be reluctant to suggest,
that, if the Presbyterians have any
money for the conversion of the hea then
which they do not know what to do
with, they use if for the conversion of
Christians to Christianity. If there is
any one thing which this sad old world
most needs to-day it is the teaching
to those who call themselves Christians

Pardon me-" | said Indignantly,
"but those belong to me-"
Benches amt for bundles" croaked
an evil voice beside me.
Recovering my flowers, I turned to
find seated beside me rat-eyed young
fellow, cheaply dressed, cycling me with
an insoent stare. AS / looked at him
he began crowding over toward me.
Plainly it was his intention to GUST me
from the bench.
"There's plenty of room on those
other benches over there" ! suggested
resentfully.
BEAT 1t yourself If you don't like 1t
here" he retorted, blowing the smoke
from cheap cigarette in my face. Il

| answered with an angry retort and
hot words followed. We had almost
come to blows when the bushes OPP
posite us suddenly parted. ! caught
sight for Just second of a villainous
face, that of a man about forty, an
unforgettable face with red scar
across the left cheek. He raised one
finger in an imperative gesture, signal
ing to my unwelcome companion on
the bench. With q profane exclama-
ton of dismay, the rat-eyed fellow
sprang up and walked hastily away
along the park path. Wondering
what 1t YVES all about, / watched him
out of sight around a turning of the
asphalt and then glanced toward the
apartment house where in few min
utes I was to be guest.
AS I looked young girl came out
OF the house and walked slowly to-
ward the park. At the corner she
hesitated. She seemed to be debating
whether to continue on down the ave-
nue. or to turn into the park. Appar-
emily the lure of the greenery won her.
for she came on slowly toward where
l was sitting. AS she drew nearer
observed her with interest. for she
was one of the prettiest girls | ever
had seen. Her slim figure, her dainty
ankles her carriage, everything about
her suggested the patrician. Her face
rosy and youthful. was set off by a
iaunty feathered toque. from under
which a pair of soft, black, roguish
eyes, shaded by long lashes, looked
out above a dainty nose, just bit
lStip tilted, on either side of which a

CHAPTER /

With an exclamation Of annoyance
! cruInpled up the note from my great
uncle Rufus and flung 1t on the floor.
My disappointment at its contents was
the one thing needed to complete the
after misery of wretched day.
Only that morning my roommates,
Birge and Roller, fortunate fellows,
had been informed that their applica-
lions for the ambulance service had
been accepted. Our year of happy
eompanionship had come to an abrupt
end.
Cheer up, old man." cried the OPP
timistic Birge, "your luck will change
some time"
Right" said Roller, as he stopped
TO give final tug to the straps of his
new kit bag, "a chap as crazy about
Adventure as you are Is bound to meet
her soon"
"Stop it," I cried In desperation. 1T
is you two who are to have the great
opportunity. Soon you'll be seeing
shrapnel burst, airplanes battling, reg
fments charging. heroes dying, and I
I'll be sitting here alone in hall
room. eating my heart out with lone
someness and envy, spending my days
at an uncongenial desk, and my nights,
God knows how, after you fellows have
gone"
you never can tell" chirped old
Birge "nll kinds of strange things hap
pen right here in New York. You may
be the one that has had belyful of
adventure before we return-if we do"
His last three words gave us all a
SOLDERING thought There was a chance,
more than a chance. that never again
on this earth would we three be to-
gether again. Eight of our college
mates had preceded Birge and Roller
TO the great battlefield. Already three
OF them lay in hero graves somewhere
under the lilies of France.
The silence of a sad parting fell on
us. The taxieab came and we drove
together TO the pier with hardly a word
spoken
