The Southern Jewish weekly. [volume] (Jacksonville, Fla.) 1939-1992, 1942-08-21

The Zionist movement today is
at the crossroads. It has gone
long way since the Balfour De-
claration of twenty-five years ago.
Palestine Jewry which in 1917
was negligible both quantitatively
and qualitatively stands today as
a beacon and fortress, the third
largest Jewish community in the
world Zionism's thesis has been
INDICATED a thousandfold as the
Jewries of Europe have suffered
humiliation, appropriation, torture
and massacre.
The road that lies ahead is one
beset with dangers and uncertain
ties. It is not so much the mill
tary uncertainties which trouble
Zionists today. Our unshakable
faith in Palestine is Of a piece
with our unsuitable faith in the
victory of the United Nations.
Our immediate problem, of
course, is to strengthen the hands
of the Yishuv so as to enable it
to defend itself against the imme-
date threat in the Near East and
bv the same means to defend the
more effectively the cause Of the
United Nations.
It is not likely that the Axis
menace to Palestine will be com
pletely removed in the next sew
eral months. Therefore. the Zion
list Convention will be most
timely occasion for taking counsel
as to how to make available to
the Yishuv without delay add
tional sinews Of war. both through
our own resources and through
the allotment Of resources from
the military supplies which Eng
land and the United States are
pouring into the Near and Middle
East.
Nor should there be any relax
alton in the insistence upon the
recognition and equipment of a
Jewish military force recruited
from Palestine and fighting under
British command It is a demand
which is morally just, legally
proper and militarily wise. AS
long as the term Jewish National
Home" is legal the demand that
Jews coming from the Jewish
National Home be permitted to
fight and if need be, to die under

Hollywood Starts
Jewish Fund Drive

Los Angeles (JPS)-The Jewish
members of the motion picture in
dustry launched their campaign
for the United Jewish Welfare
Fund Of Los Angeles this week
under the Craftsmanship of Mervyn
LIE Roy. famous director and pro-
Queer. Honorary Chairman of the
campaign are William Goetz, Da-
vid o. Selznick and Walter Wang
er. Jack Benny is Vice Chair
man and the Executive Committee
consists of Phil Berg, Mervyn LIE
Roy, Sam Katz, Edward G. Robin
son and Dore Schary.
1t is reported that the campaign
start had been delayed for many
months because of the view of a
few members of the Hollywood
colony that it was not desirable
to aid distressed Jews overseas.

ton should animate every Zionist
in America to dedicate himself to
campaign of "proselytizing".
No doubt the Zionist Conven-
ton will aslo concern itself with
the problem of revitalizing the
non-Zionist sections of the Jewish
Agency for Palestine. We shall
have to ponder seriously the prob
lem of what compromises can be
made or need be made in order to
win for our program a united
American Jewry. the preponder-
ent portion Of whom is already
Zionist in sentiment.
How to make the great numbers
who are Zionist in sentiment
count in the affiliated ranks of
the Zionist movement is a prac-
teal problem which will call for
serious thinking at the forthcom-
ing Zionist Convention. While
continuing our efforts to increase
the numbers of individual mem
bers in the z. o A. we must give
more attention to the enrolment
of groups upon the basis of a
nominal affiliation tax, which
should include the Congress
shekel, and allow margin for
the expense of mailing literature.
The relation between the z. o.
A. and the other Zionist parties
will again come up for consider
alton. 1t is not as pressing a
problem as it would be did we not
have an Emergency Committee
now in existence for nearly three
years, which is in effect the over
all body in American Zionism,
dealing with all important mat
tiers and constituted of represent
atives of all the parties.
The Zionist Convention should
avoid the minutiae of organiza-
tional questions and concentrate
on the larger aspects.
Fortunately the question of
who is going to be the next Pres
ident of the 2. OLA. will not di-
vert the attention of the Zionists
at this Convention. Judge Levin
