The attack began at 4:30 a. m.
Algiers time yesterday with an
assault by the main force OF Gen.

Akarit, 20 miles north of Gabes.
REACH OPEN PLAIN
BY nightfall, British tanks were
in the open coastal plain to the

Asked whether the desert army
engaged the enemy's main forces
or merely the rear guard, Church

"My statement covers the

A communicate from Allied head

Vandalism In New York

In denouncing the vandalism in synagOgues at Sarano
Lake Lake Placid and Upper Lake. Governor Charles
POet of New York declared that the hOOdums guilty of
the destruction and dissertation betray democracy at
home while our and die for in battle Hit
leism and the Ku Klux Khan do not belong in America
In the hands of the outgoing Governor of New York
State Polett and of the incoming Governor, Thomas f.
Dewey Jews may be assured that there will be full offc
ia protection of their rights But the legal enforcement
alone of the morality is sometimes weak buttress for
minority It is only fair to hail Mr.. Polett for the
prompt action he took in directing the State Police to
vsgae the situation and to turn the evidence over to the
District Attorney However, will be noted that the rab
of the affected synagogues had to turn to the Governor
because local law enforcement officials seemed to be
able to act.
What has happened in upstate New York has been
taking place with sckening regularity in New York City
itself It is situation which calls for the most search
ing sef-scrutny by American public officials. just as it
calls for an abandonment of POlyannism among Jews
themselves The fact of the matter is that there are GER
tain toxic elements in the body of American public opinion
Fortunately they restricted in and only OF second
airy vruence. But that such elements should exist dur
ing this critical period in history when Americans
without regard to their faith shedding their blood
for freedom for all Americans is for anxiety lsO-
atOnism reactiOnarysm and similar Affections are the
breeding ground for the bitter malice out of which the
New York State incidents grow Perhaps the Otflce OF
War Information might take hand in cOunteractlng the
anSemsm at home which is the very antithesls to our
efforts for victory abroad
