The Foe Within

In our battle for justice we

who, having mortgaged their

tous to sell out our group for
a mess Of pottage. In myriadS
Of instances they hAe al

beings are like moles which
burrow sneath the surface,
and they have by their perm

Washington, D. c. (JPS) =
Leading southern newspapers
have repudiated Senator Theodore
G. Bilbo ID. Miss.) foe of the
FEPC, notorious for his attacks
on the Senate floor, against Jews,
Negroes and other minority
groups.
The Macon (Ga.) News, re-
ferring to Bilbo, said 1--WE con-
ceive it to be the duty of every
Southerner to repudiate every ap-
peal to prejudice ;. Persons who
fan the flame of racial hatred are
enemies of the people and their
free institutions"
The Richmond (Va.) Times, re-
ferring to Senator Bilbo and to
Senator Eastland, also from Miss
issippi, declared: "It is humil-
iating to the South for two Miss
issippi demagogues to misrepre-
sent the Southern people with
their unfair diatribes."
The New Orleans Oa.) Item
asserted: 'Truly there is no worse
Influence in high life than Sen
ator Bilbo. He is a disgrace to
Juniper Grove, where he was
born; to Mississippi, which he
represents; and to the nation of

shut up and sit down."
Eight Senators, out of fourteen,
who are on the District of Column
bia Committee of which Senator
Bilbo is chairman, declared that
they were disguised with the
sentiments expressed by Bilbo in
insulting letters written, on COM

criticized his anti-FEPC stand.
They said that while their names
appear on the letterheads, what
ever Senator Bilbo writes does
not reflect their views.

ter can help them gives high
priority to social and recreation
al programs and to vocational and
educational guidance.
Recognizing the varied program
required, the Jewish Center Divi-
sion of JWB, in cooperation with
the organizations Committee on
Veterans Service, is preparing
guidance and source material for
use of its constituent agencies
throughout the country.
All Jewish centers are offering
membership privileges to return
ed servicemen and women as a
starter. Experience has shown
that this policy attracts veterans
to the centers during the crucial
period when they are cropping for
community contacts. Suitable pro-
vision is also being made for
transfer of membership and for
travelling membership for vet
Grams starting out in new COM
munities.
In several localities, a Business
Advisory Service for War Vet
Grams has been set up. This serv-
ice renders practical counseling
to veterans eager to return to
civilian status. This kind of serv-
ice will do much toward aiding
men and women who have spent
years in the armed forces to speed
their readjuStment.
Included in their duties is the
representation of veterans who
seek benefits under the G. I.
Bill in which latter work the
Jewish War Veterans cooperate.

Jewish centers will find it nee
essary to seek immediate and
practical solutions to moment
Gus challenge in the days ahead.
Will the normal program prove
adequate to the expanded needs OF
returning veterans? How can the
Jewish Center enlarge its activi-
ties to stimulate understanding OF
Americas role in successful
achievement of the peace? Can
the Jewish Center adapt itself to
its role as an important channel
of Jewish community thinking, so
essential to intelligent action?
These and other questions of
equally far-reaching significance
confronts the lay and professional
leadership of some 800 Jewish
centers throughout the country.
Basic to any future planning for
Jewish center work in the field
of veterans re-absorption into
normal community life is the real
ization that many veterans today
are being separated from the serv-
ice. The veterans own list of
