MARYLAND Low
DURING JUNE

During the month Of June there
We're 2S traffic fatalities in Maryland;
this was the lowest June record in
3 years. While this is commendable,
it is also regrettable that it took
National Emergency to curtail the
rising accident rate. Accompanying
the fatalities there were 1411 acct
dents with 705 persons injured. These
figures show a 471a5 reduction in
fatalities, 22.6cc reduction in total
accidents, and 2O.8G5 reduction in in
juries under June last year. In
Worcester county, there were 4 acct
dents; l person killed, wounded
The most notable reduction in ia
talities, 71.4fc, was experienced in the
fixed object and non-collision acct
dents, caused in most cases by Excess
sive speeds-neXt with 555Gc reduc-
ton was two vehicle collisions, and
last with 1880 reduction was pedes-
trian fatalities. The increased use of
bicycles has shown up in the accident
record with a 200e6 increase in ia
talities-3 bicyclists being killed and
80 injured out of total of Al acct
dents. There are very few property
damage bicycle accidents.

perienced an 1880 increase over

Reinvestment Demond
Continues to Offset
Cloudy War News
BY VICTOR EUBANK,


NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-Reinvest-
ment demand in today's stock mar
ket again more than Offset cloudy
war news from the Far East and
Leading issues added fractions to
more than a point to yesterdays
rally.
While volume was less than half
that of week ago, the turnover OF
around 100000 shares exceeded most
Saturdays in 1941.
Rails. mail orders, sugars, farm
implements. aircrafts and specialties
were the principal performers on the
upside. Steels, motors and rubbers
were relatively narrow. Oils gen.
orally failed to do much on the re-
covery push.
Agricultural commodities resumed
the forward move which started Fri
day in response to the framing of
price control legislation, which would
favor agricultural products, Carrier
bonds were popular in the loans de-
partment.
Many who had cleaned their
shelves of securities in December in
order to register sizable losses for
income tax purposes were said to
have reinStated commitments.
The occupation of Manila and
Cavite by the Japanese invaders,
and threats to Corregidor and other
parts of the Philippines, as well as
Singapore and Malaga, were far
from bulliSh market factors but, as
Wall Streeters pointed out, the final
round in the battle of the Orient has
yet to be fought and confidence still
was high regarding the outcome.
Restraining influences remained
in the matter of Federal industrial
controls and prospects for mounting
taxes although armament spending
was expected to bridge the gap in
many cases. Tire and motorcar
shortages were being taken for
granted and the view was expressed
by some that stocks in these groups
may have pretty well discounted the
halting of normal production dur
ing the speedup Of the war pro-
gram.

Ry EDWARD c. STONE.

Postal revenues of the City Post
Office in December made history by
reaching new all-time high mark
for that or any other month and
also by boosting receipts for the
full year l94l to the highest point
ever known, postal officials an
nounced today The Office just
missed getting into the $4,000 900
year revenue class.
Receipts in December reached ST.

105.25037, a sharp increase of $3l9,-
275.37, or 2688 per cent, Postmaster
Vincent C. Burke announced. For
the first time there were 100000
revenue days during the holiday
rush. At the same time the report
supports other evidence of the best
Christmas trade on record.
Postal revenues for the full year
I94l amounted to S9,942 ,28l.1
against s8.596.8567O for the year
1910. a jump in the II months Of
s345, ,42442. Every month during the
year witnessed a substantial in
crease in income over the same

The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1942-09-11

The first year of the Nazi-
Soviet war brought about radical
changes in the life of the Jews in
the Soviet Union. The impact of
the war against Hitlerism, the
great enemy not only of Russia,
hut also of the Jewish people,
seems to have produced among
the Jews of the Soviet Union the
realization of their solidarity of
fate with that of the democratic
world and especially of the Jew
ish people throughout the world.
Also the geographical distribution
of Soviet Jewry has been consid-
erably altered.
Hundreds of thousands of Jews
from the Baltic and Ukrainian
provinces were evacuated by the
Russian army before the on
slought of the Nazis. However,
the territory that the Nazis have
succeeded in occupying during the
first year of their war against
Soviet Russia is one of the most
densely populated by Jews. In
1941, more than 100000 Jews
lived in that area and in spite of
the mass evacuation and the flight
before the German army most OF
them came under the Nazi regime.
From the beginning the Nazis
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1942-09-11
Year of War for
IN GOVERNMENT SERVICE


Contrary to anti-Semitic asser-
ton, while hundreds of thousands
OF Jews have been fighting in the
army, the personnel of the gov
eminent leaders contained rela-
lively few Jewish names. Among
the nearly 200 top officials of the
Soviet government, the peoples
commissars and their deputies
only 10 are of Jewish origin. Two
OF the Jews most frequently men
toned were the brothers Kagano-
witch, Lazar and Yulii. Lazar is
the only Jewish member of the
Polit-Bureau and Yulii is the only
Jew in the presidium of the Su-
preme Soviet of the u. S. S. r.
Lazar Kaganovitch was Peoples
Commissar for railroad transport
until April 1912 when he was re-
placed in that position and named
vice-chairman of the Transport
Committee for Coordination of
Railroad, Sea and River Trans
port. Yulii Kaganovitch is Dep
uty Commissar for Foreign Trade.
The two Jews who play an i'm
portant role in the foreign policy
of the Soviet Union are Solomon
Lozovsky and Maxim Litvinoff.
Since the outbreak of the Russian
German war Lozovsky became
very popular as the official
spokesman of the foreign office.
Litvinoff who lost the post of For
eign Commissar in 1889 when the
Stain regime decided to conclude
a non-aggression pact with Hitler
lite Germany saw his policy of col
lective security and alliance with
the western democracies vindicat-
ed. Litvinoff was appointed am
bassador to the U. S., at present
probably the most important posi-
ton in the Soviet foreign service.
There were also reports that Karl
Radek has been released from
prison. However, these reports
were not confirmed and Radek' S
name was not mentioned in con-
nection with any important event.
The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1942-09-11

have tried to use anti-Semitism
in order to win over to their cause
the Ukrainian and White Russian
populations.
The fact that all this elaborate
Nazi propaganda machine has met
with no response in the Ukrainian
and White Russian territories is
an eloquent proof Of the change
of attitude towards the regime
that has occurred in that area in
the last 20 odd years. No import
ant fifth column could be found
and even the Germans had to rec
ognize that their anti-Semitic and
pogromist propaganda was met
with utter contempt by the local
population.
In the Soviet army there was
complete equality for the Jews
who have had a magnificent part
in the resistance of the Red Army
to the Nazi military machine.
OF JEWISH HEROISM
In fact no anti-JeWish bias has
reported and the Jews have en-
Enthusiastically participated in the
common effort of all Soviet citi-
zens in resisting the Hitherto mil
itary machine. According to re-
ports published in Moscow, 60O,-
900 Jews were in the Soviet army.
The Jews were also very active in
the guerrilla units which had been
formed to attack the Germans
from the rear. Throughout the
year reports were published of
conspicuous bravery of Jewish Of
ficers and soldiers in the fight a.
gainst the Nazis. Among those
decorated for bravery on the
battlefield were hundreds of Jews.
Only few outstanding examples
may be mentioned. The famous
i Soviet General Lev Dovator, COM
mander of the Cossack troops, de-
feated the Germans at Rostov and
checked the Nazi offensive. Lat
er. Commander Dovator died in
action and the Soviet papers
stressed the fact that while under
the Tsarist regime the cossaks
were being used to carry out 60
groms against Jews, under the
Soviets they were led by a Jewish
general; Dovator was made a hero
of the Soviet Union 3 weeks be-
fore his death.
Lido Chaikin, a leader of a
guerrilla group which operated It's
own radio station, was made a
hero of the Soviet Union postum
mously. The famous Jewish poet,
Yutkin, left his job as a journal
list and went to the front. There'
leading his company in an attack
on the enemy, he lost his right
hand. A young man, a student OF
provencal literature and a trans
lator of medieval poetry, a typical
near-sighted sickly Jewish intel
lectual named Rabinovich joined
the Red Army as a volunteer.
Wounded in the shoulder, Rablno-
vich mustered enough strength to
crawl across a German tank,
hand grenade in hand. He Die"

JEWS IN CONQUERED
TERRITORY

Jews remaining in the conquer
ed parts of the Soviet Union suf-
fered untold misery at the hands
of the NaZi invaders. Almost
daily reports were reaching the
outside world about the Nazi
atrocities, killings and expulsions
of Jews. In most of the large
cities occupied by the Germans,
ghettos have been established and
the Jews were forced to wear
yellow badges and submit to all
kinds Of humiliations. According
to reliable and confirmed infOrma-
ton in Odessa alone, $4,000 Jews
were executed by the allies of the
Nazis, the Rumanians, after zoo
Rumanian soldiers were killed by
a Soviet time bomb. The other
Jews of Odessa were put into
ghetto. According to the official
statement of Molotov, Soviet For
eign Secretary, horrible slaugh-
tiers and pogroms were organized
bv the Nazis throughout occupied
Soviet Russia. The pro-Nazi Uk-
rainian paper of Krakow, the
Krakiwski Visit reported that of
the former Jewish population OF
10000 in Zhitomir only 5000 re-
NAMED. The same paper stated
that Kiev which prior to the Nazi
occupation had a Jewish popula-
ton of 10000 is now free OF
Jews. the last Jew having been
expelled from the city on Septem-
Der 20, 1871. The $4,000 Jews OF
Borisov, IS miles of Smolensk,
were reported massacred by the
Nazis for alleged aid to the guer-
rillas who had been harrassing the
Germans in that region through
out the winter. According to the
report of the Red Star, official
implication of the Red Army, the
entire Jewish population of Mari
onol on the Sea of Azov were mas
sacred by German soldiers during
the occupation of the city. The
report stated that more than 5000
Jews were slaughtered.
