Army. based on Palestine, to fight
for the survival of the Jewish peo-
pie and the preservation of democ-
racy. This army, composed pri-
marily Of Palestinian Jews and
refugees as well as of volunteers
from free countries, will fight on
all required battlefields side by
side with the United States, Great
Britain and the other Allied ma
tons"
This confronts the world with
several large and important ques-
tons. Are the Jews seeking to
esta blish themselves as a Race or
a Nation bearing arms in defense
Of a home territory? Or do they
regard themselves as citizens of
the countries in which they are
presently found?
These questions are not nearly
as simple as they sound. They
cannot be answered yes or no, be-
cause the world is full today of
Jews who have no country wheth-
er by birth or adoption. They
are the refugees who have been
driven out of their homelands be-
cause they are not wanted there.
hey are the Jews who have been
forced at the point of the bayonet,
at the barrel Of a gun. to leave
Germany, Austria, France and
where not in Europe. They are
what we have come to cal.
''Stateless Jews"
Is it to be considered that Pal
estine is new national state to
which these and all other Jews
who wish to may belong? That
was the promise given to Chain
Weizmann, the famous leader of
the Zionist movement. It was
Weizmann who got the famous
Balfour Declaration, the promise
Of homeland for the Jews of Ju-
dea, Samaria and Galilee. He got
it by a great service to the Brit
ish cause. Many people have for
gotten that it was this same
Chain Weizmann who invented
that destructive chemical COM
pound which helped the Allies win
the war.
For this he asked no money and
no honors. He wanted a home for
his people and Balfour promised
that.
But while Balfour was making

soul. In the Warsaw ghetto tne
oeath rate is now twenty-three
times higher than it was before
the war What a tale that tells
of how Hitler uses his power.
Those who want to establish the
Jewish Army have a terrific stake
in this war-a terrifying stake.
Let us look at some other figures
written in the blood of martyrs.
Let us look indeed at the mys-
terv of a vanished city. When
Hitler came to power there were
in Europe about 100000 Jews.
Today 100000 of them-if they
are still alive-are in Nazi-held
territory. To show what that
means, let us look at Germany it
self.
When Hitler came to power
there were 100000 Jews in Ger
many. Now there are 100000.
What has happened to the missing
400. 900? Let us be extravagant
in our guess. Let us suppose,
leaning over backwards to be lib
eral. that a good half of that miss
ing 100000 German Jews found
means to emigrate. Let us assume
that those 100000, that liberal
half, found refuge in this country
or in Palestine or somewhere else
upon the face of this unhappy
earth. There are still some 200, 900
to be accounted for from Germany
alone. 100000 people make a
very substantial city. Where is
that vanished city of 100000 souls :?
How many of them committed
suicide? Haw many were killed
by the Gestapo? How many SIM
ply sat in dark corners and slowly
starved to death? Only six years
ago there were five deaths to ev-
cry one birth in the Jewish COM
munity in Berlin. What do you
suppose the rate is today? Where
are the missing 100000? I cite
this only as an example. Figures
from other places show how DELHI
erately and with what cold, ma
lignant, meditated ferocity the
Nazis have set out to kill off these
people en- masse.
Is it any wonder that the young
Jews in Palestine and in other
places of refuge want to fight a.
gainst this halocust? They want
to organize their own army to
fight.
Now I am told that the British

lishman was making other prom
ises to the Arabs who considered
Palestine their home. Colonel
Lawrence of Arabia organized the
Moslems to fight the Germans
to lick them-on the desserts OF
Syria, in the mountains of Leban-

1eth. Lawrence told the Arabs
they were to have united Arab

have made several journeys
to Palestine and have talked with
the leaders of both sides. Both are
persuasive, eloquent and intensely
sincere. 1 have also seen what the
Jews have done in Palestine. I
have seen them take land once
good for nothing except as I'M
cared-for stamping grounds of
wandering nomadic tribes. The
Jews bought the land from the
Sheiks. The goatskin tents of
the Bedouins passed on; the great
rocks were blasted. canals were
dug. water flowed through the ir-
rigation trenches and barebacked
young Jews titled the fields. Soon
the fruits were growing in green
fields. Hospitals, schools. a uni
versity and city-Tel Aviv-came
into being as swiftly as if they
were the creation of Aladdin rub
bing his lamp.
With all this came also clashes
with the natives-a reign of ter
ror. The last time I drove from
the Syrian frontier to Jerusalem
I rode in an armored car, pro-
tected by British soldiers, and the
train I was to take from the CAPT.
tai down to Haifa was wrecked by
saboteurs. Then came the war
and, with it, a sudden end of that
civil war. Arab and Jew sud-
denly saw common enemy. All
the efforts Of Hitler's agents who
infested Palestine like the reaches
in the hold Of a ship could not
swing the Arabs to their side.

in spite of the heavy German
fifth-column activity in the land
made sacred in history by the
prophets of the Jews and by Jesus
Christ.
The stateless Jews, the refugees
and the Palestinian Jews are all
united in an ever-growing hope
that they will be permitted to shed
their blood as unit in the war
against Hitlerism.
Hitlerism is just as much a
menace to Christians as to Jews
but it is a fact that no people
have suffered more than have the
Jews from Hitler. He has restor-
ed the Infamous ghetto. Under
the Nuremberg Laws he has re-
vived the medieval distinctions be-
tween man and man and TODAY
those laws are being applied in
every country which Hitler con-
quers. As Christian and a Cen
tile I say that these Nuremburg
edcts take rank with the most
brutal laws ever applied to human
beings in all history. Until the
Nuremberg laws are repealed or
Hitler is defeated. these human
beings called Jews on the CONT
