Now Levin, by himself would
prove nothing, except that he was
a brave soldier and a Jew, but he
is not alone in his heroism. Humid
reds and thousands of Jews are in
the ranks Of our armed forces and
many have been cited for their he
roism. There were Jewish boys
among those who died when ia
pans declaration of war took the
form of dive bombers over Pearl
Harbor. Corporal Theodore Lewis
of Philadelphia died within three
hours after the attack from in
juries suffered in saving some of
the men in his command. A letter
from his commanding officer to
his parents stated:
Corporal Lewis lived only three
hours after being wounded. Sew

government is proud of his unseI-

CAPITOL SPOTLIGHT BY FRED ADLER

A little anti-Semite canard that
was kept i'm mOthballs during the
years that America was at peace,
has been brushed off, refurbished,
and is busy doing business at the
same old stand. It's the one that
goes: "Sure, the Jews want to
get us into the war, but where'll
they be when the fighting starts ?"
Its presentation takes many forms
but it's basic thesis that Jews are
towards, weak, nOn-military men,
is the same whether purveyed by
Christian Frontiers, Ku KuXerS,
Silver Shirts, or what have you.
A lie such as this is pretty hard
to lay. AS has been often said:
"a lie travels around the world
while the truth is putting it's shoes
on" But a young man named
Levin from Brooklyn-a place US
ually considered a better target
for vaudeville jokes than a home
of heroes-has done a magnificent
job to dispel this fabrication.
Included in the list, recently an
nOunced by the War Department,
of those soldiers who have been
recommended for the Distinguish
ed Flying Cross, was Corporal
Meyer Levin, who was the bomb
ardier in the crew of the plane,
pilOted.. by. Captain Colin Kelly,
which sank the battIeship Haruna
and made Kelley a revered nat
iOnaI hero. Levin was one of the
seven crew members who bailed
