|Hadassab Told
JeaVisb Orphans
Pose Problems
BY Catherine X. Hambley

Jewish orphans in Europe are
being retained as potential citizens
by European nations facing the
problem of underpopulation, Mrs.
Paul W. Aschner of the National
Board of Hadassah said yesterday.
Speaking at the Washington's Ha-
dassah's opening meeting of the sea-
son, she explained that by retaining
these orphans many nations of
Europe hope to aid in the repopula-
ton of their lands.
Most Jewish girls have been
killed by the Germans to prevent
propagation of the race" the speak
er declared, but many boys are
roaming uncared for over the con-
tinent"
These children have seen their
parents murdered, their brothers
and sisters brutally treated and
have been turned out in a friend
less world to look after themselves, "
she continued.
European governments, eager to
make future citizens of them for
their underpopulated countries, have
placed them in homes, converts,
asylums and orphanages. Hadassah
is trying to find them wherever they
are and to bring them to Palestine" :"
The speaker urged that Jews in
more fortunate circumstances con-
slider the plight of European Jewry
as their moral responsibility, adding
that the remnants of Europe's jew
ish population is too paralyzed by
the misery of their experiences to
have the physical or mental energy
left to readjust themselves to the
peacetime world.
Mrs. Aschner advocated that Jew
ish women obligate themselves to
urge free immigration into Palestine
as solution to the Jewish problem
in Europe
Because of growing anti-Semit-
ism which Hitler started, many
Jews cannot return to their native
land. In Czechoslovakia, on the
other hand, Jews cannot return ex-
cept by rejecting their faith and
adopting Christianity" she ex-
planned.
Mrs. ASchner was introduced by
the president, Mrs. Tobias Naftalin.
New members were introduced by
the membership chairman, Mrs.
Joseph MendelsOn.

The union times., 1945-12-08

The danger is that, in running down these two branches of government, the whole system of democratic gov ernment may suffer loss of popular confidence, preparing the way for some sort of totalitarian take-over, come the next depression.
 PEOPLE RESPONSIBLE
 It's easy enough to damn Congress and the President and thereby feel that you have placed the blame where 1t belongs and have no further re- sponSibility. Then, it's their fault, not yours. The only catch in that theory is that, in a democracy, the final blame or credit belongs to the people themselves.
 Because FDR could usually be re- lied upon to make a shoe-string catch for labor and progressives generally we tended to develop something of a company union attitude, a happy-go- lucky idea that long range policy consisted of working from one days newspapers to the next-or, at most, a few weeks or months ahead. We knew that FDR's party was held to- gether with a combination of baling wire, Roosevelt charm, and fear of COP capture of leadership of Con- gress and patronage.
