M Auxiliary Has
Hospital Program

In world torn with war and
the care of it's victims attracting
great deal of attention the hospi-
talization program announced for
1871 by the National Ladies Auxi-
liary of the Jewish War Veterans
OF the United States is indeed note
worthy. The hospital work of the
auxiliary compromises all activi-
ties which will benefit disabled
War Veterans of the last world
Holocaust.
A six point program has recent
ly been announced which calls for
frequent visits to hospitals with
small gifts, such as cigarettes,
matches, candy, shaving items,
writing paper, pencils, etc., and
special visits at Purim, Passover,
Chanukah and other Jewish holi-
days, with appropriate gifts for
the occasion. Each auxiliary hos
pital chairman has been instructed
to keep in touch with each Jewish
veteran as he enters the hospital,
either personally or through the
mail. To help accomplish all this a
national hospital penny fund has
been set up.
This program is built upon two
concepts. First, the desire Of the
National Ladies Auxiliary to pro-
vide comfort and cheer to all dis
abled War Veterans, regardless of
race, color or creed, thus promot-
ing good fellowship between Jew
and Gentle in carrying out hos
pital work. Second, the realization
that the auxiliary has a special
duty to men of their own faith to
bring them comfort and cheer. It
is the work of the auxiliary, a
recent chapter bulletin reported, to
make their foremost task "the re-
Mobilization of those who h ave
borne the brunt of the battle"
Quoting Abraham Lincoln).
Typical and outstanding of this
program is the work Mrs. Esther
Katz of Pittsburgh has been do
ing. For seven years Mrs. Katz
has been visiting the hospital sew
eral times a month distributing
cigarettes and providing the bud
dies" with little things they might
need. She knows every Jewish vet
eran by name and many of the
non-Jews. She has made it her

which have have won him
considerable acclaim.)
Joyous festival of light,
Bringing tales of heroes bright,
OF mighty deeds and bold;
AS our songs we sing again,
From your lights there spring
again
The MaccabeeS of old!
Mattathias, priest of God,
Soothing at the tyrant's rod,
And all his wicked horde;
Judas and his fearless band,
They who freed the ravished land,
And faith and shrine restored.
Judas, noble heart and true,
Leading but the weak and few,
You fOiIed the tyrant's rage!
You it was who kindled then
Lights that thrill the souls of men,
And shine from age to age!
Festival of holy light,
Lift the darkness of our night
And ne'er from us depart:
In the Temple first you glOwed,
Now our hearts be your abode,
A temple every heart!.

his interests and something of his

she is always ready to offer her
blood for transfusions, and at
times of death she is invaluable in

There are three auxiliary posts

entrusted with police and sanitary
services in the ghettos, it was sta
ted.
A Jewish militia, 1000 strong, is
being organized by the Nazi adj
ministration Of Warsaw to act as
police force within the Warsaw
ghetto. Only high school gradu-
ates may join it. Their records
must show they have never been
sentenced to any punishment and
that they have had military train
ing.
Reliable information reaching
Geneva FIR ON Nazi-occupied Po-
land also revealed that the Nazi
administration in Warsaw issued
an order prohibiting Jewish group
prayers.
The Jewish community Of War
saw was permitted by the Nazi
administration to raise loan Of
1OO, 900 zlotys necessary to cover
immediate needs in connection
with urgent relief for ghetto resi-
dents. The loan is to be taken from
the emigration fund" created
through confiscation of Jewish
property and is to be repaid at the
end of March, 1941.
An average of 400 Jews weekly
are reaching Warsaw from provin-
cial towns, where life for Jews has
become unbearable. This constant
influx is aggravating the situation
in the ghetto, where there are not
sufficient dwellings to accommo-
date even the Jews compelled to
move from other sections of War
saw into the ghetto.
Declaring that Jews had not
complied with previous orders to
leave Cracow, the German author
tiles in the capital of the Polish
Governments General have issued a
new order for expulsion of the
Jewish inhabitants to ''reserva-
lions" and forbidding Jews hence
forth to enter the city.

Week In Review
PALESTINE AND REFUGEES
By MILLION sRoWN. J.r.A.


While the Palestine Govern
ment's move to begin deportation
of Illegal immigrants to a British
colony created a new crisis in the
Holy Land, a CHASTITY event off the
Turkish coast gave poignant illus
tratiOn to the plight of homeless
refugees.
The Bulgarian authorities forced
some $50 Jews to sail on a small,
leaky vessel, the Salvador, which
hit reef in the Sea of Marmora
mid a raging storm, drowning 223
of its passengers, most of them
women and children.
The Jews had been forced to
sail for Palestine, despite the pro-
test Of the ships captain that the
small sailing vessel could hardly
hope to make the voyage. The $50
survivors this week were being de-
tanned in the Turkish village of
Silviri, having lost their meager
possessions, their documents, and
many of them even their last clO-
thing.

would have retained a tradition regard
ing that passing. Ogden had been able
to find no such tradition among the
Indians of Oregon or Washington.
Another point which led some read
ers TO disbelieve Lavelle's story was his
statement that in the valley of the
Willamette river he and his COM
panions saw artificial earthworks which
they believed to be very old The ex-
plorer, John C. Fremont, looked for
these earthworks but failed to find
them. Others looked from time to time
but the earthworks were not located,
although what are believed to be rem
nant of construction by ancient inhabi-
tants have been found in more recent
times.
The fact that Fremont could not
locate artificial earthworks where La
velle had said they were does not nee
essarily give the lie to the latter's story.
1t is quite possible that the fasteners,
unaccustomed to the unusual natural
formations so common throughout ths
west, mistook natural rock formations
for artificial construction. The question
regarding Lavelle's manuscript will
probably never be cleared up. Today
nobody even seems to know what be-
came of the manuscript.

ny WAL
History relates that Lewis and
Clark and their followers were the
first to cross the continent via the
American northwest, but there is
a tradition that other white men
had made this journey across what
are now the states Of North Da-
kota, Montana, Idaho and Wash
cier national park writer's of the
park service have mentioned this
tradition, stating that according to
legend a Spanish sailor crossed
from the Pacific to the upper Red
river in what is now Dakota, max
ing his way to trading posts in that
area. The shipwrecked sailor is
supposed to have made this trek
about 1900. and by way of what is
now Glacier park.
Most historians discount this tradi-
ton but it persists and one man &C
tually claimed that he made this trip
in 1904. He wrote the story of the adj
venture and his account created con-
siderable discussion in 1852 This al
legged account of the cross country
journey starts with shipwreck on the
miles north Of the mouth of the Co
lombia. The ship was the Sea Otter, an
American vessel from the eastern sea-
board. According to the story, -four
survivors Of the wreck made the trip
from the coast to a point on the Red
river. One of the four was the author OF
the manuscript describing the journey
He was v. Lavelle, a sailor from Phila-
delphia, and if he didn't actually make
the trip he described he certainly had
a great talent for fiction Some his
torianS are inclined to credit the La
velle account, others denounce him as
a faker.
One of those who refused to believe
the Philadelphian's story was Governor
Ogden, chief executive of Oregon Ter
ritory in the 1905 and student of In
dian life. Ogden disbelieved Lavelle's
story because, in the opinion of the
governor, the Indians of the country

Big business backs the defense

Europe'S war. A most recent evil
dence of the willing support rem
dered by a big manufacturing
company is the $4,000 contribution
to the Red Cross war relief drive,
made by Adolphus III and August
Busch Jr. On a recent Tuesday
afternoon, the newspapers carried
the Red Cross appeal for a Sl0,-
100000 war relief fund. The We'd

check for $4,000 to head list Of
125 first-day gifts.
In letter accompanying the check
Adolphus. president and namesake of

the young executive added:
Later. Busch took the lead in ex-
pressing his willingness to pay an ad-

welt. to help meet the cost of the new
national defense program.
THE preparedness program

he declared. And we stand ready to
bear our fair share Of any taxes i'm

immense fortunes and employers of
more than 5000 men.
1t was back in 1857 that young
Adolphus Busch, a well-to-do German
immigrant lad. settled in St. Louis
and opened a brewers supply store.
The youngest of 81 children, he was
an energetic chap with a knack for
making friends-and money.
He fell in love with Lilly Anheuser,
pretty daughter Of prosperous manu-
facturer, who had taken over a defunct
small brewery and didn't know what
to do with it.
year before the Civil war started,
they were married. Adolphus bought
