Hddassah Told of Babel
Of Languages in Palestine

The increased persecution of
European Jews in the past year has
added to the problems of Jewish
youth communities in Palestine,
where according to Miss Gisela War
burg, national chairman of the
Youth Aliyah movement, the settle
ments and training schools have be-
come "babels" of languages.
Speaking before the Washington
Chapter of Hadassah yesterday at
the Jewish Community Center, Miss
Warburg told how hundreds of
Jewish children, ranging from 2 to
II years Of age, had been given
refuge in Palestine from Hitlers
pogToms carried on with renewed
fury in Poland, Czechoslovakia,
Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, France
and Holland in the past IL months.
Tracing the history of Youth
Aliyah, founded eight years ago in
Germany, Miss Warburg said chill
Evening star., 1943-01-20

I dren admitted to the Youth Aliyah
communities had originally re-
ceived special preparation for their
life in Palestine, the land of their
adoption. More recent events, how
ever, have necessitated opening the
doors of Palestine as quickly as pos
sible. They arrive after weeks of
suffering and hardships by circui-
tous routes to the land of refuge, she
explained.
Where previously all refugee chill
dren spoke the Hebrew tongue many
now speak only their native Ian
guage, she added, and the standard
Of education has gone down so far
that scarcely any of the refugee
children have had education in the
countries where they were born.
"At first, Youth Aliyah only ac-
cepted children between the ages of
IS and H." Miss Warburg explained.
Those were the ages too old for
foster homes and too young to be
left alone. Now, to save remnant
of Jewish youth, we are taking
children from to IT,"
The speaker gave moving de-
scription of hundreds of these
starved and penniless young chill
dren struggling to reach the haven
in Palestine.
The sum of S480 supports one
child for two years in the Youth
AlIyah communities where they are
trained in agriculture and to be-
come skilled artisans.
Miss Warburg was introduced by
Mrs. Isadore BreSlau, the preSi-
dent. Mrs. Raphael Tourover, a
member of the National Board,
spoke briefly following Miss War
burgs address. She read a letter
from Mrs. Henry Morgenthau, jr..
a member of the organization,
pledging the amount for the sup
port of one child.
Honor guests included Mrs. Louis
D. Brandeis, widow of the Supreme
Court justice; Nine. Loudon, wife
of the Ambassador from the Neither
lands; Nine. Hurban, wife of the
Minister from Czechoslovakia; Nine
CiechanoWska, wife of the Ambas-
sador from Poland, and Nine

Extra Pay Increases
Joy Of Red Wings
Hockey Triumph
BY the Associated Press.


BOSTON. April 9.-After being
inspired by the lavish bonuses Of
Jim Norris, their proud owner. De-
troit's happy Red Wings today were
speeding home with the Stanley Cup,
hockey's most priced trophy. for the
third time in the last eight National
Hockey League seasons.
Since they were favored to do 50
all season, for they were by far the
strongest club starting out, 1t is
likely that the mere winning of that
cup was secondary to the manner in
which they gained 1t by sweeping
four straight from the Boston Bruins
in the final series.
Two years ago the Bruins subject
ed the Red Wings to four straight
setbacks in the cup finals. and last
year, after winning the first three
games from the Toronto Maple
Leafs, jolly Jack, Adams forces
stunned hockey circles by dropping
four games in a row.
Before the Red Wings skated out
against the Bruins in last nights
finale, Norris. who had promised to
add 5000 to his players playo1
pool, agreed to give an additional
$2.500 If they took four straight.
While the Red Wings were doing
just that they provided Johnny
Mowers. their all-star goalie, with
his second shutout in as many
nights in Boston. Mowers blanked
the Bruins, 40, Wednesday, when
Don Crosse tailed three goals. and
last night he gave them a 20 white
washing.

OUTDOORS With BILL AcxzRu4p

few days have they been Tipping
the surface above Key Bridge. A
few have been caught by various
means, but 1t will take several warm
days before the real run will be
on and it will be possible to catch
them by ,snagging or the more
sporty means of hyrod and
Streamer fly.
Newcomers to this area may Won-
der. because of the many bones,
where any food value is to be found
In the herring. They may believe
the small size of the perch makes
this fishing hardly worth while.
Yet even the smallest perch is &C
cepted as the finest of pan fish.
The herring may be cooked we'll
enough so that the bones require
little or no consideration.
The best way, however. to get the
greatest value per pound of fish is
to cook first until the flesh Is done,
then, after picking out the largest
bones, run through a meat grinder
and cook again in the form of cro-
quettes or cakes. The seasoning de-
pends or the individual taste and
will require little experimenting.
Easy to Salt Fish.
This year there probably will be
many salted down against the COM
Ing winter. A strong brine is all
that Is needed, It is made by cov-
ering the split fish with salt as
they are placed in crooks or small
kegs. The water content Of the
fish supplies all the moisture
needed
Black bass often are hooked in
the backwaters and tributary
streams. They should be returned
to the water for the season does
not open until May 80. Their pug
nacity and willingness to take bait
or lure at this time is because this
is the spawning period in this area.
The same Is true of crappie and
Dream.
Fishing down the river, particu-
larly at Occoquan. one Is apt to
catch several bass to each herring.
Some surprising catches Of bass
made this way already have been
reported However, until the sea-
son opens, put 'em back.

That little observation that Tues
days fisherman-and Wednesdays
and Thursdays, too-would expert
ence less trouble obtaining skiffs
than would week-enders was no idle
chatter. Saturday afternoon and
Sunday there was waiting list at
all three boat liveries between Key
Bridge and Chain Bridge on the
Potomac. Week ends from now on
will find the 50-odd skiffs available
in this area in greater demand and
to get your chance at the sllvery
hordes mounting the Potomac some
planning is in order,
Instead of occupying large sklft
by yourself take several companions.
Consider the long evenings when
for several hours after work 1t IS
possible to enjoy this nearby fishing
and still be home for dinner by dark.
Remember, evening and early morn
ing always find the greatest feeding
activity.
Usually the herring are well
started on their spawning before
stripers show at all in the upper
Potomac, but already several stripers
have been reported caught and
and the herring are just making
an appearance. Added to the early
season activity of striper schools
down the river, it appears as though
rivermen are right in their assump-
ton Of an early season and good
run OF fish.
Perch Vary From Day to Day.
Fishing between Washington and
Alexandria seldom is mentioned for
the pollution is so heavy that fish
caught in this stretch aren't exactly
desirable for the table. Because
the best places for stripers are close
to the bridges, where fishermen
aren't permitted, it is useless to do
more than note that If they are
up so far another few days might
find them In the clear, clean waters
above.
Fishermen find the variance in
the size of the white perch confus-
ing. When they catch large hand
size specimens one day they feel
that they should be able to do so
on the next as we'll. But 1t just
doesn't work out that way, for as
soon as one school spawns it drops
downriver and others take It's place.
Some are large, others small.
This holds true throughout the
season, which lasts from four to
six weeks. Right now the largest
perch are in the deeper waters,
reached only by boats, while the
shore is alive with little fellows.
Herring Run Soon Due.
