A Homeland for the Jews

The S. S. Sturma flying the Panama
flag, carrying $50 Jewish refugees from
Rumania and Bulgaria sank with all on
board oh Feb. a, 1912, in the Black Sea-
These Jews had been REFUSED EN-
TRY INTO PALESTINE because, it was
said, they exceeded the quota.
On Nov. %, 1910, the Patria, carry
ing 1,S00 Jewish refugees from Hungary
and Austria, sank with great loss of life
in the harbor of Haifa, in Palestine.
On Dec. ID, 1910, the Salvador, from
a Turkish port to Palestine, with 230
Jewish refugees on board, sank with all
on board.
These are among the most hideous
acts of intolerance, callousness and incom-
petence ever perpetrated, and little has
been said about them.
It is quite evident then, that the
Palestine experiment is not a success,
under present conditions.
If the Portuguese and the former Ger
man possessions in East Africa offer
greater advantages they should be Sc
cured by negotiation at the peace table.
N IFFICULTIES confronting world
- Jewry of today are not a problem
for the Jewish people alone but a
WORLD ISSUE.
DR. James c. Heller, president Of the
Central Conference of American Rabbis
md chairman of the National Admins
ration of the Zionist Organization of
America, sees the problem clearly In a
recent address in Los Angeles he said:
"Our difficulties will continue after
the war because we are no nearer a sOu-
ton now.
But that prophecy is not hopeless
because the years of dangers the Jews
have faced have brought TO them definite
consciousness of the problems to be
overcome.
Ours is not a problem for the Jews
alone, but Is ONE FOR THE ENTIRE
WORLD TO HELP DECIDE"
Doctor Heller believes that "the flight
back TO Palestine is the solution.
II may be he is right-but at least
something adequate should be done.
The problem is too big to be treated
by halfway measures and far too inn
portant to the world to be carelessly dis
missed and disregarded

of them Utopian, others highly desirable
and even essential.-
One of the most important of these
problems-the Jewish problem as II IS
called-fairfy cries for serious considera-
ton at the present time.
In fact, one of the definite detectives
of the war should be an honest and ade-
quate settlement of this Jewish problem,
which is vexing the Jews themselves as
much as any one else.
There are many Jews throughout the
world who seek HOMELAND
They seek the cultural and political
union which nation of their own would
give them.
This is a legitimate and normal aspira-
ton.
1t means physical and spiritual eX-
pansion.
THIS war Cand the peace treaty that
l will naturally follow seems to offer
great opportunity to solve, or to SO
far toward solving, this aspiration of
many Jews.
The Jews should receive in the peace
negotiations a country Of their own-and
a great country for a great nation and
a great people
Some say that the Jews do not need
land of their own-that they are nov
distributed throughout the world in the
lands of others and that they prefer that
kind Of existence.
That is well and good for those who
prefer that sort Of existence, but it has
proved in the past not to be always
safe and stable existence.
Under such conditions as now exist
the Jews are ALWAYS a MINORITY,
and who can tell when in the future they,
as a minority, might not continue TO be
subjected tel justice and persecution?
They should have a HOMELAND
where they can always find refuge from
persecution.
It should be in all ways a worthy
homeland, not MERELY a refuge
Moreover the homeland must be
OWNED and CONTROLLED by the
Jews themselves.
1T SHOULD not be like Palestine. under
l the protection Of England, where refu-
gees are sometimes turned away from
their own homeland to pcrsh-as for in

Japan can be beaten; but
- Japan can be beaten only by
physical and moral strength
equal 10 or greater than her
own. and that strength can be
supplied only by the about
effort Of all Americans.
There you have it. These three
sentences are all | have 10 tell.
Some of you may see the pic
ture, the whole picture, now.
Others may prefer that l follow
out. in general terms at least,
the implications of these state
ments.
First. Japan is strong. Japan
Is not a little country.
The Japanese are not a little
people, except in stature, and
they more than compensate for
stature by vlgor and skill.
There are more japanese than
there are EnGlis h m en-, or
Frenchmen, or Italians.
Japan is about as populous as
the German Reich, and each
single Japanese is a part of an
effective war machine.
Man for man, nation for ma
ton, Japan measures up 10 the
highest standards of organized
power in the modern world.
Japan is civilized, in her own
This civilization is deep and
beautiful. but its culture has a
streak Of brutality and sub
Servfenee in it which makes
japanese ideals alien to ours or
to the ideals of the Chinese, or
any other Of her neighbors.
Japan was well-ordered and
metropolitan when New York.
in our infant republic, was
small commercial port and
Washington a scattered village
in the thickets along the Poto-
mas.
At that time the Emperor
Napoleon never saw-perhapS
never knew bout-the largest
city in the world he sought TO
conquer.
That city was not his Paris,
nor the London he sought 10
conquer, nor the Moscow where
he met nemesis: that largest
city was Yedo. which we know
AS Toxic, where a vast dicta-
torShip held a great urban Gull
ture under a b solute and
unrelentinG control.
OUT Of this old, biz, rich,
~ strange civilization. there
emerged the power and brutality
Of modern Japan.
II was no miracle that Japan
adopted our machinery and our
weapons so rapidly; Japanese
civilization did it-despotic, So
phiSticated, military civilization.
Japan is unified, and per-
vasively governor.
The Japanese live by their
own rules.
They swept ahead of Asia by
the dictates of their rulers.
They were accustomed 10 au-
thoritan. totalitarian gov n

growth.
When Hitler was a malad-
iuSted, unhappy student and Mus
Solini an ardent young radical,

They already had an obedi-
ent, faithful people at their COM

the rule of the warrior, in the

Gas Rationing
They Don't All Use Same
Amount Of Fuel
BY WESTBROOK PEGLER

THE gasoline rationing system
i is infested with some seri-
Gus imperfections which. in the
jargon of the automotive engi-
neer, would be called bugs and
in the Technology of the New
Deal would be called gross in
equalities.
For one thing. not all cars
give equal mileage per gallon.
An eight-cylinder job burns
more fuel than a six. road
heavy job burns more than a
light. nimble trick and a wheel
ing jallopy more than car whose
engine is young or kept in good
repair.
People are stuck for duration
with the cars they were caught
with when war came and the
ratio OF mileage which they can
squeeze out of the ration was
established then.
II would drive the rationing
board crazy 10 equalize matters
in this respect, for these people
are not engineers nor have they
the time 10 conduct road tests,
but the inequality is there just
the same.
DEOPLE who live in mountain
i Gus or very hilly country
where IL is necessary TO go into
lower gear on the upgrade will
/ get less mileage than people who
live on the flat.
II may be argued that they
can get some Of II back by coast
| Ing down hill but that doesn't
seem TO work out, possibly be-
cause the engine takes pretty

just myth or 50 small a differ
ence as 10 be not worth consid-
ering, because the same methods
and material are available 10 all
the big producers.
MANY individuals have a
vi ration card who do not
need individual motor tranSpor-
tatlon at all.
A person living in the city of
New York. for example, and
whose business is exclusively in
New York, can attend 10 all his
necessary travel by subway.

In the suburbs which stretch
way 10 hell and gone in three
directions from town, those who
live within walking distance. say
half a mile of the railroad sta
ton or the feeder bus line which
goes 10 the station, don't neces-
sarily require cars.
If the shopping center is a
mile or so away, or the school
or the school bus is beyond walk
ing distance for the kids, that
is something else again.
But il is a fact that some
individuals get the minimum
ration who don't need any and

The other day had a visit with
q group OF boys and girls, and
they asked me questions about the
present World War. I replied to
the questions and now shall tell
something about them.
DO you think Stain will stay on
our side or 60 with Hitler?" asked
Johnny Leuker.
I think Stain will stay on our
side. Russia so far has done the
hardest land fighting against the
Nazi armies. The fighting on the
Russo German front has cost more
lives than all the rest Of the war
fare against Hitler. -.
There have been more Russian
deaths in this war than British,
French. American, Belgian, Dutch
and Norwegian deaths combined.
With such losses after the German
attack on Russia, it does not seem
likely that Stain will give two
minutes OF thought to joining Hitler.
IF Hitler dies, do you think Goer-
ing will try to be still more power
full than Hitler?" asked Patsy Nc
Govern.
If Hitler dies from disease in the
next few months, Goering probably
