5000 CHRISTIANS LEARN
ABOUT JEWS AND JUDAISM

- ~ - - u
Over 5000 Christian young peo-
pie, selected for their outstand-
ing work in their church youth
group and scores of ministers
were given the opportunity to
learn about Jews and Judaism
through the personal contact of a
rabbi. Under the auspices of the
Jewish Chautauqua Society, "a
rabbis were made available to 20
Christian church youth camps
from New York to California to
present courses dealing with Jew
ish history, literature and relig-
gion. In an atmosphere Of friend
ly amiability the campers, clergy
men and rabbis exchanged views,
aims and goals through provoca-
tive discussions both formal and
informal.
Living intimately together
with all these people for whole
week, for instance, sleeping in
one room with At other ministers,
had, of course, unique opportun-
tiles for innumerable discussions
with individuals about our prob
lems," writes Rabbi Ernest I.
Jacobs of Springfield, Missouri.
Cali these discussions" he goes
on to say, "were most amiable.
I may say that I have seldom met
a finer group of Christians than
these. The ministers were all
highly educated. The young peo-
pie, all selected for the interest
they had taken the past year in
church work, were idealistic, well
behaved and many of them high
ly gifted. I found the greatest
frankness in discussions and the
most desirable understanding for
us as Jews"
Il have tried to analyze the ex-
ceptional enthusiasm for me-"
writes Albert T. Bilgray of Nc
Keesport, Pennsylvania, land
have come to the conclusion that
the very presence of a rabbi at
the camp, teaching as a member
of the faculty, participating
intellectually in the social and
recreational program, eating with
the campers, and taking part in a
good-natured banter were perhaps
the most important factors"
The camp directors, too, were
warm in their praise. "Our camp
season was great success" writes
director of a New York camp,
land the rabbi definitely contri-
buted toward making this pos
sible. His class was so popular
we had to divide it into two teach
ing periods. We feel very FORUM
ate in securing such a fine teach
er and representative of the Jew
ish religion and look forward to
having him again with us next
summer"
Inspired campers at camp in
Arizona bid goodbye to the rabbi
with commitment to ''an Ameri-
can unity so illumined by relig-
ious values that we appreciate
not merely tolerate - the divers

tiles Of religion, race, culture, and
national origin which characterize
our people"
Warm and lasting friendships
grew from living intimately and
closely in camp environment and
sharing like experiences. One
rabbi writes that his correspond
ence has doubled as result OF a
visit to one of these camps. Min
listers from camp in Houston,
Texas were so impressed with the
friendliness, charm and intel
ligence of the rabbi that they beg
ged to be invited to attend his
services at the temple. The con-
gregation was delighted to have
them and soon after arrangements
were made for the rabbi to visit
the ministers at their church and
speak to all their groups. In this
way friendships were made and
strengthened.

MT. HiIIman's Panic
Washington Post)

(WaShngtOn POSt)
 Sidney Hillman has joined the chorus Of panic mongers on the air in making our flesh creep about the unemployment that is at hand. He ought to be ashamed of himself. Ten million workers he says, will be out of work within the next six to eight weeks" MT. Hllman national chairman of the CLOS Political Action Committee, knows better. At least 75 million out of the 10 million jobless are surplus workers who would not be in the labor market but for the war. Half of them children whose education has been interrupted by war work Others are service wives who simply awaiting the return of their soldier husbands to back home. Cutbacks already put into effect have yielded some interesting samples of what happens to the displaced labor. In some cases half of the labor force have simply dis appeared from the labor market
 Most of the labor opportunities will come from the reduction in the hours of labor The national average at present is 45 hours week. When the average has been reduced it will be, if for no other reason than to labor costs, there will be more work for who have been thrown out of war work and who are normal workers MT. Hillman knows all these and relevant facts. He is doing a diSservice to the Nation in not helping to put the situation in perspective, in helping his constituents keep a of values. What he wants evidently Is to rush Congress into remedial legislation. While we think the current bills have been neglected and that legislation is necessary at the same time we deprecae such attempts MT Eillmans to dragoon Congress in passing laws in haste. That is how to get bad instead of good laws.

A Current Instance
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enquirer
 In of our Cincinnati industries on July l its earnings were up to its exemption from the excess profits This for the last half of the year the earnings will virtually all go to Uncle Sam. The concern will not be for the benefits of it's the stockholders but merely to pay and pay the excess profits tax As far dividends go the place might close up for the last half of the year and no stockholder would suffer.
 Very likely this story is repeated everywhere and often Naturally it patriotic to pay taxes and not grumble Heaven knows the United States Treasury can't forever a deficit But such tax system seems lacking in common sense. Now work for money, joint stock companies run for money. That is the incentive which keeps the wheels turning And that incentive should be continuous. You can't have it for only six months in the year and remove it for the other six months Yet do have precisely that. It is a system which should be changed
 Furthermore, what reason from merely selfish point of view has this concern in making more jobs for returning veterans? Of courSe one might say industry in these circumstances must be altruistic should think of others and not of itself That is fine yet when all is said and done business is business and altrusm is bit above its level.

 Women are under the best plane tary guidance today. It is lucky date for love affairs and for wed- dings. Good news from relatives in the armed forces is indicated. This is time for signing leases or legal papers of any sort.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS Manufacturers are subject to promising planetary influences which seem to presage early profits in plants undergoing reconversion work Buying of household. necessities of all sorts will reach unprecedented volume as the year ends.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Changes in educational aims will be widely considered this month un- der configurations which encourage foresight and courage. Academic and practical aims will conflict in cer- tain schools and colleges.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Because Uranus remains in Gemini all year, international complications will be numerous and difficult to overcome but the outlook for United Nations plans is favorable to wise changes and clever adjustments.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of activities of unexpected scope. Well laid plans will be scrapped for openings of great possibilities.
 Children born on this day probably will be bright in mind and strong in character. They should be affec- tionate and obedient. j

latest move went so far as to of fend the Chamber of Commerce of her own home town, Independence.
 A few days ago, photographer from the National Geographic Magazine and a writer assigned from the Missouri Resources Com mission, Jefferson City, stopped in Independence to gather material and illustrations to use in the National Geographic. Efforts by the Chamber of Commerce in be- half of the two through the Wal lace families, the Presidents in- laws, to obtain pictures of Mar garet Truman were refused. She did not care to pose.
 So the Chamber of Commerce enlisted three young women to be photographed on the sidewalk lead ing from the Delaware Street en- trance of the Truman home. The young ladies were Miss Virginia Gard, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. R. F. Gard of Independence; Miss Jaanan Haden, secretary to the Chamber of Commerce; and Mrs. Lora Weatherford Ellis, a Post Office employee. The Secret Ser vice had no objection to this pie ture and it gave life and color to scenes of Independence.
 But suddenly, two days later, the Chamber of Commerce received a telephone call from Carl M. Dick son, head of the Kansas City Secret Service. He wanted to know where he could locate the National Geographic photographer. Margaret Truman, he said, had decided she didn't want those pictures pub lished in the National Geographic Magazine, even if she was not in them. She didn't even want three Independence girls photographed near her home.
 The Chamber of Commerce was incensed. Especially because on that very same day, Miss Truman posed i'll the back yard of the Truman home with her aunt, Mrs. George Wallace, for photographers of Fox Movietone. Her friends now wonder if she isn't attempting to crash the movies.

THE HON. WALTER ELI CLARK, LIT. D.

It is always a pleasure to record honorS we'll earned especially when they bestowed upon friends or people we have known.
 Many in Juneau remember former Governor of Alaska Walter Eli Clark and will be pleased to learn of his award of doctor of letters by Wesleyan Uni versty at the schools annual exercises last June.
 A graduate of Wesleyan, Walter Clark gov ernor of Alaska from 1909 until 1913 and since that time has been editor and publisher of the Charleston West Virginia Daily News.
 No higher words of praise could be given news paper man than those of Wesleyans President Butter field when he presented the honorary degree to Gov. Clark:
 Walter Eli Clark, for fifty years graduate of Wesleyan for fifty years you have used your pen in the service of your community your state and your country Modest successful, fearless, liberal of the older school with a faith in the freedom and inde- pendence of man, with hate of what is dishonest or partisan politics you have fought the public battle long and well Your editorials in your Charleston Daily Mail, written with striking Independence have for thirty years been the most widely read and probably the most influential in the State. Because of the ability with which they have been composed because of the courage with which they were published because of the force they have been for honest government in your State and com munity you personify the really effective leadership of a democracy-the leadership open to Wesleyan

Mrs. Pauley was listed as an of ficial member of the Mission, with an allowance of $25 a day while overseas.
 Members of the Mission testify that Mrs. Pauley was extremely pleasant, but acting pleasant was all she did. Meantime, the Rus sians paid for virtually everything members of the Mission needed. They provided housing, food, and servants without charge.
 (NOTE-At the rate of $25 day, Mrs. Pauley should have netted a cool $2,000 from the Government during her pleasant trip to Mos cow.

MRS. PAULEY TRAVELS

There are several thousand GI's in Europe, now finished fighting the war, who would like to have their wives living near them in France or Germany-but they can't President Truman explained that this was impossible, and the ex- planation was accepted with good grace.
 However, when ex-Treasurer of the Democratic National Committee Ed Pauley went to Moscow as Preparations Ambassador, President Truman loaned him his own private plane and Mrs. Pauley went along.
 Mrs. Pauley was a most charming companion for her husband every where he went, and seemed to enjoy the pleasure shared by few other wives. However, as if this special privilege was not enough,

 MARSHALL SCOLDS CONGRESS
 Example No. 2-After the Ger man war ended, the Army an- nounced it's 85-point system and the plan to discharge 1,388,000 men under it. But now they have turned round and admitted to Congress- men that there are less than 500,000 men with 85 points in all war theatres including the U.S.A.
 Again Congressmen point out that 1,388,000 doesn't equal 50O,OO0, and they suspect that the Army gave out the higher figure last May with no real intention of living up to it.
 Certainly the Army made no ef- fort to reduce the 85-point score between VIE Day and V-J Day, despite its promise to do so That promise was announced officially and publicly, but apparently it was never meant. For. on Aug. ', Chief of Staff Gen. Marshall held a press conference in which he stated most emphatically that the point score would remain "as is" and there would be no lowering of it.
 Marshalls press conference was held just after the atomic bomb was dropped on Japan, after peace feelers already had been received from Japan, and one day before Russia came into the war-Mar- shall knowing in advance that she was coming in. Yet the Chief Of Staff spent at least half his press conference telling why the Army must keep 100000 men and de- nouncing Congress for wanting to have less.

Suggestion to the War Depart ment:
 Why not arrange a system of fur loughs for men marking time In U. s. camps, so they can go home for several months if the discharge centers are now so swamped with the job of mastering men out?
 At present, veterans with battle ribbons actually are being used to pick up matches to keep them busy until the discharge machinery IS speeded up.
