Negro And Jew
Will Survive,
Says Rabbi Wise
Compares Hitler's Treatment To
South's Persecution

New York.-Recounting story of
brutality to the Jews in Germany,
Rabbi Stephen S. Wise safd;; 81 have
the same feeling for any wrong done
to any member of your race"
Rabbi Wise was the principal speak
eftat the twenty-fourth annual mass
meeting of the National Association
feTsfhe Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie on Sunday afternoon at the S5ci-
etJ of Ethical Culture Auditorium,
64th AND Central Park West. The
subject bf his address was "Parallel-
isms Between Hitlerism and the Per-
secution of Negroes" He said the
Negro and the Jew both had a great
spiritual heritage. 4
"We have learned the art of sur
vival," said Rabbi Wise, and that the
Negro will survive also.
The meeting was the Associations
opening gun of a national campaign
for a federal anti-lyncaing law. The
annual business meeting of the AS
sociation was held at 2 o'clock on
Monday afternoon at their |offices, SO
First Avenue.
Rabbi Wise stated that hatreds and
bitterness against a race is. due to an
inferiority complex on the part of
those who hate; it is the result of a
conscious or unconscious realization
that the object of hatred is actually
or potentially superior. Those who
persecute Jew or the Negro do so be-
cause of fear and moral and spirit
ual defeatism."
The speaker, comparing the perse-
cution of the Jews in Germany with
the lynching and the burning of Ne
groes in America, stated that the
differences lay in the fact that in
Germany such persecution "is mat
ter of government policy"
Germany is hurt more than the
Jew, for we are going to survive" ha
said, adding that it will be many years
before Germany can live down its
"abysmal wrong" against the Jewish
people. ...
The Rabbi remarked upon the "great
spiritual treasury" given to mankind
by the Jews since Biblical times, say,
ing that he could easily match the
record of Jewish contribution tx
Civilization with that of Aryanism.
He decried the attempt made in Ger
many to regiment the Jews for "yor
cannot be forced and constrained to bs
what you are not"

ment that Is years ago, young men
drafted for military service were

In examining recruits for concen-
tration camps for unemployed, the

been rejected by the Army as being
physically unfit for soldiers in the
Army and military service.
From the Division of Pubrc Health

ticed the jealous note had entirely
disappeared from his voice.
I'm afraid not"
"And this information you're after
Is so important to you?" he con-
tinued.
Yes"
"You don't feel you can tell me?"
he persisted.
"I'll tell you tonight, after you've
quit McSwain," she promised.
But she didn't tell him that night,
simply because she didn't see him.
That day, the longest Marian had
ever experienced, crawled along mo-
ment by moment. May Wah tele-
phoned early to say that the head of
Waki had many pains and would she
mind If they stayed at home?
Marian eagerly assured her that
she wanted Waki to take the best care
possible of himself. As she had con-
flded to Lon the previous night. IF
Waki had been killed would have
felt like his murderer"
She was afraid to work in the gar
den for fear the telephone would
ring and stop before she reached 1t;
afraid to telephone Anne or any one
whom she dared to talk with, for fear
Hamlin or John King might be try
ing to reach her.
And then, to top it all, was the
gradually growing conviction that
McSwain was planning some way OF
keeping her from reaching Hondon
with the information If she got it.
She wondered If he had reached HAM
lin, then decided he hadn't for the
operator had said he had checked
out" Perhaps he had sensed the
seriousness Of the situation and de-
cided to hide out where McSwain
couldn't reach him, though that
wasn't the way she would have
thought he would act.
"I'u drive in to see King in the
morning." she decided. Lon won't
be working and he can 60 with me.
Perhaps now he'll listen to my ex-
PLANTATION and believe me and to-
Rether we can work for his protec-
ton"
Somewhat satisfied, she curled up
on the divan with Q book. She would
read Q page or two, then stop to
think, tomorrow we can start over
again, Lon and l." or. 'it would be
nice to drive back to Cleveland, for
the Winter"
The day passed slowly. She gave
up trying to read and tried to write
letters, but she couldn't write Of what
was on her mind, and nothing else
seemed important.
She had dinner preparations under

watching the clock anxiously. Five.
