CLEAN Up week
IS SCHEDULED
TO open MAY IA
Move on Foot to Procure
Free Parking Space for
Summer Season
WANT RESIDENTS TO
USE THESE PLACES

Hendersonville's annual assault
on dirt will be made during the
week of May ID, a special Cham
Der of Commerce committee de-
cided last evening.
Meeting in the office of Mayor
A. V. Edwards, with w. M. Sher-
ard as chairman, the committee
laid plans for cleanup, paint
up, fix-up campaign that is ex-
pected to reach into every corner
of the city and ut it in attractive
appearance for the advent of
tourists and other summer visi-
tors.
Because free labor will not be
available, as was the case last
year when scores of men on re-
lief payrolls almost literally
secured" the community, the
committee this year will have to
depend largely on property own
ers to have the cleanup work
done. City workmen and trucks
will haul away all trash that is
gathered up and conveniently
placed and Boy Scouts will be
available to help "spot" insight
ly lots and to y burn off lots that
are overgrown with grass and
weeds, it was said, but property
owners themselves must meet the
actual cost of cleaning up their
premises. Otis V. Powers. chief
of the police and fire depart
ments, said city trucks will cover
the city completely during the
week, but if any property is
missed the owner has the privil-
eye of calling telephone 112 as
asking that trash be hauled away.
Mayor Edwards and Milo w.
Streng, president of the Cham
Der of Commerce, were designat-
ed to interview the owners of a
half dozen large lots uptown and
secure permission to clean off
the lots and convert them into
free parking spaces for use dur
ing the summer. An effort will
be made especially to induce
Hendersonville people to use
these dots and thus leave Main
street parking spaces for visitors.
The campaign will not be CON-
fined to cleanup work, it was
said, but property owners will be
urged to make liberal use of
paint and to make needed repairs
if possible.
Members of the committee be-
sides Chairman Sherard and the
others present are Miss Jane
Truck. Roy G.. Bennett and C. M.
Ogle.

BY DAVID PLATT

A TYPICAL expression of Nazism
"A at its bluntest right in the heart
of New York City, is seen in the
case of q young Jewish film worker
by the name of Herman Blander.
Blander, for four years an en-
ployee Of Cinelab, Inc, film deyel-
opers and printers, SO w. 60th ST.,
where he worked in the dark room,
winding and developing film, ETC.,
was recently fired from his job be-
cause his Nazi boss, a Mr.. Frank
Weisser, Superintendent of the
company, is of the belief that the
Jewish people are curse to the
human race and should be poisoned
or sterilized en- maSse.
For many months, Blander who
is a small, reticent man, under 80
years, had been enduring all kinds
of petty abuses at the hands of the
anti-semitic S. A. Mann Weisser, a
burly brute weighing 240 pounds,
about twice as much as his victim,
merely because he happens to be
Jew and the Nazi code says
Jude Verrecke perish jewry).
TWO weeks ago, Weisser called
L him into his Office, showed a
D. A. w. A. badge up against his
face to remind him of the stern
reality of fascism, and told him to
get the hell out of the Office and
stay out, he was fired.
Bewildered, Blander, who is the
sole support of his wife (soon to give
BIRTH, both of whom have been
living for months on the meager
$40 week (often less, since some
times there are only three or four
days work week in this N. r. A.
D. A. w. A. business) he had been
earning with the company,
stumbled out of the Office and into
the arms of the owner of Cinelab,
Mr.. j. H. Smith.
Blander hopefully told the story
to Smith, who sympathized with
him, saying he couldn't see any diff
ference between Jew or Gentle,
they both had red blood, and said
he would speak to Weisser and told
him not to worry but to come to
work the next day. The proprietors
word was also law at Clnelab-per-
haps! Blander went home to his
wife. The next day Smith was
nowhere to be found. Instead
Blander was given the following
note signed by Smith:
Il have talked over the situation
of your employ with Mr.. Weisser
and there is nothing further can
do for you. Since Mr.. Weisser is
the superintendent in charge of the
laboratory and absolutely respon-
sible for the work turned. out his
word is final. l am, however, at

Jewish Film Worker Fired
By Nazi Superintendent

should carry you until you find
other work. Wishing you the best
of luck, etc. my EMPHASIZE. p
Later Mrs. Blander, i'll though she
was, decided to call on Weisser and
plead for her husbands job, and
her child's life.
Weisser was brutally adamant to
her pleas but before she left, hypo-
critically handed her letter of
recommendation to the effect that
Blander was honest, trustworthy
and a conscientious worker but due
to business conditions it was neces-
sary for us to cut down our force.
We can recommend him to whoever
may have use for his services"
THE next step carried Blander to
l the American Jewish Congress,
an organization reputed to be alert
to cases of anti-semitism as this
Here he was greeted by Solomon L.
Goldsmith of the Congress who
listened to the story, was seemingly
touched, and straightway phoned
Weisser, who informed the Congress
that Blander was released" solely
because he was unfit for the work
he was too small and his hands
were too short.
From that moment on the atti-
tude of the American Jewish Con-
press became one of complete hos
tility to the Importance of the
issues involved, of extreme hesitancy
in examining the facts of the case
and of absolute unwillingness to
publicize the matter. The Congress
made not the slightest effort to
verify Blander's story, sent no
representatives to the Cinelab, but
kept referring Blander to the jew
ish Aid Society and the Home Re-
lief Buro, in hope that this would
solve the problem for both of them.
Finally Blander gave them up in
disgust, but not without a parting
shot from Goldsmith that the Con-
gress has hundreds of such cases
but could do nothing about them
either.
He then told his story to real
1t i Nazi fighters. Now the
AntiNazi Federation and the Film
and Photo League have taken up
the case and bitter fight is being
waged against the Cinelab Com
pany and Nazism in New York until
Blander and other such victims of
discrimination are re-instated in
their jobs.
Sympathetic organizations an d
individuals are urged to send pro-
tests to Cinelab Company, SO w.
Goth ST., to Mr.. Frank Weisser,
Superintendent and Mr.. j. H.
Smith, Proprietor, denouncing the
discrimination against Jewish en-
ployes and demanding the imme-
date reinstatement Of Blander.
