make a well-knit national Jewish
life in Australia difficult. News
papers help. There are three
Jewish papers in Australia-the
Hebrew Standard of Sydney, a
weekly; the Australian Jewish
Chronicle of the same city, also a
weekly, and the Australian Jewish
Herald of Melbourne, fortnight
ly. The last named is COM
munity paper; the others are pri-
vately owned.
Every synagogue is technically
under the jurisdiction of Great
Britain's Chief Rabbi Joseph H.
Hertz. Nonetheless, Reform SER
vices are said to be winning more
adherents.
Jews have done their share in
building up Australia. Here are
few of them:
Sir Isaac Isaacs: Governor
General of the Commonwealth in
1881. The previous year he had
been Chief Justice of the High
Court of Australia. He is consid
cred a great legal authority and
has had a hand in the creation of
many solidiy established Austral-
! ian projects, such as the Federal
Constitution and the Australian
Commonwealth itself, which he
helped to found.
Justice John Jacob Cohen and
Cantor: Leading figures on the
Supreme Court Bench.
Henry Isaac Cohen: Minister
of Education.
George Judah Cohen: Austral-
las greatest banker.
There is also to be remembered
the late General Sir John Monash,
one of the greatest Generals in
the last war.
The fact that after this war Jews
will need many Ravens of refuge
brings to the fore once again the
large continent which is Australia.
With the closer unity among ma
tons, will Australia open its
gates to Jews? Will the Com
monwealth allow the brothers of
the Jews now fighting for the sur
vival of Australia to enter and
live as human beings?

Jews here. Today there are at
least 10000. Men like Edward
Hart, Michael Cashmere, Isaac
Lincoln and S. H. Harris founded
the first Melbourne Jewish con-
gregation. The first synagogue
was built in 1853. Since that time
many more houses of worship
have been erected.
Adelaide: The capital of South
Australia has a compact Jewish
community of 800 persons. 1t is
feared that the side-tracking of
Adelaide in regard to obtaining
Jewish immigrants who arrive in
Australia may mean the extinc-
ton of Adelaide as a potent Jew
ish city. The arrival of American
Jewish soldiers may to some ex-
tent pump new blood and life into
Adelaide, but that is merely guess
work.
Brisbane and Perth: Although
Perth is the youngest Jewish COM
munity in Australia and Brisbane
got a late start with its Jews,
both cities are holding up quite
well. Hebrew education is grow
ing apace and the synagogues are
really spiritual centers for the
Jews in these cities. The Zionist
movement has branches in every
large center in Australia. This is
also true of the Jewish National
Fund.
There was a time when it was
believed that Australia could serve
as a home for many Jews who
could not adjust themselves in a
prejudice-bitten world and who
were driven from corner to cor
ner in an anti-Semitic Europe.
In 1927 and 1928 about $500 Jews
entered Australia. They came
mainly from Poland and Russia,
although there were Jewish repre-
sentatives from many other ma
lions as well. But the Govern
ment clamped down on all immi-
grants and Jewish immigration to
Australia became a dead end. In
1929 the Tightening of restrictions
were even more severe. 1t SEEM
ed as though Australia would
have to get along with the Jews
already within it's boundaries.
There are three ways now in
which a Jew may enter Australia.
This, Of course, Goes not include
the best way, that of coming in
the uniform of one of the United
Nations. The ways are: apply to
Canberra, and prove that you can
support yourself and dependents;
be nominated and guaranteed for
by an Australian citizen that you
won't become a public charge
within five years; be vouched for
by welfare society. After Hitler
came to power, it was hoped a
large immigration could flow into
Australia-but this was not real
lied. However, several Govern
ment leaders, notably former Pre-
mier Robert Menzies, endorsed
the Freeland League scheme for
Jewish settlement in Kimberley.
Australia was also the place to
which large numbers of Jewish
refugees were sent from England
for internment after war broke
Uut. Only recently the efforts to
release them were completed, and
the refugees are being given an
opportunity to aid tn war effort.

SPRAYING over the vast racine
Ocean is the Commonwealth of
Australia, one of the most vital
keys to the treasure house which
is democracy. Once popularity
known as the home of the kanga-
roo and the untamed pygmy, Aus
tralia is now known for what it
really is: an American outpost in
the battle against totalitarianism,
refreshingly beautiful country,
a land where the inhabitants are
like Americans and where the
people love Americans.
Australia also boasts a fasci-
mating page in Jewish history.
That large portion of the AEF'
in Australia is Jewish is symbolic,
for the island continent has loom
ed rather large in Jewish history.
One of the Jews with the Amer
lean Army in Australia has writ
ten to me that he never imagined
that there could be another land
like the United States-but he
found such a country in the land
of Down Under.
The tremendous continent of
Australia is 2,974,581 square miles
in area. The United States is
slightly larger: 3,O26.789 square
miles. The population of Austria
liza, when it's last count was taken
in 1888, was 100000. Of this
number there were then 27,50O
Jews. Although there are not
many Jews in the land, every
field, every business, every profess
sional activity has benefited by
the participation of Jews. But
first, let's get few statistics off
the chest.
Most of the Jews live in the
large cities. Here are the fig
ures: Sydney, here Jews have
been about 125 ''ears, IL 800 Jews;
Melbourne, 10000 Jews; Brisbane,
1,5OO Jews; Adelaide, 800 Jews.
About 1000 Jews live in places
other than the cities just men
toned.
Sydney called the cradle of
Australian Jewry," this pretty
city has a Kehilla, an organized
Jewish community. No other city
on the continent has, although
there are numerous Jewish chart
table, religious, and cultural in
stitutions throughout the land.
The 1850 Jews are active. The
synagogues include one that is
progressive. There is also a Fed
GRAFTON of Jewish Charities. Jews
began to come to this city in 1917.
The first Jewish congregation was
founded 16 years later.
