The Jewish question exists
wherever Jews live in percept-
ible numbers. Where it does not
exist, it is carried by Jews in
the course of their migrations.
We naturally move to those
places where we are not perse-
cuted, and there our presence
produces persecution. This is
the case in every country, and
will remain so, even in those
highly civilized - for instance,
France-till the Jewish question
finds solution on a political
basis. The unfortunate Jews are
now carrying Anti-Semitism in
to England; they have already
introduced it into America.

From 1.-THE Jewish State"

It thus depends on the Jews
themselves whether this poiti-
cal pamphlet remains for the
present a political romance. If
the present generation is too
dull to understand it rightly, a
future, finer and a better gen.
Grafton will arise to understand
it.
The Jewish question still ex-
lists. 1t would be foolish to deny
it. It is a remnant of the Middle
Ages, which civilized nations do
not even seem able to shake off,
try as they will. They certainly
showed a generous desire to do
so when they emancipated us.

Rev Dr. J. H. Randolph Ray. of the Little
Church Around the Corner.
Like everyone talked to- Dr. Ray admits
things are grave. But he is optimistic. He
knows, firsthand, how often CTS and their
wives can settle even the most serious mis-
Ofall his war marriages, only very small per-
centage have failed.
Recently colonel and his wife came to
him, the colonel nervous, his wife in tears.
Dr. Ray listened. The colonel had fallen for
another woman overseas and asked for a
divorce His wife had refused; she wanted to
talk it over with him first
wYou Love Each Other"
Now he was back, his Irritation forgotten -
by him. but not by his wife. wait, rest, and
think it over" urged DR.. Ray. You must
love each other to be 50 upset. The other day
he got letter from them They are together
again and glad of it.
There is no simple formula for a salvage job
on marriage Every case differs. Neverthe-
less, Dr. Ray, from 20 years experience with
$4,000 marriages, has drawn up blueprint
for rescue Well come to that later. First.
let's take look at some of the causes of war
marriage crackups.
Judge Jacob Panken finds three reasons
predominating in cases before his New York
Family Court: Couples marry too young.
They marry too hastily. Either husband
or wife gets a cockeyed view of reality
during separation.
Census figures bear out the Judges theory.
Between 1910 and l943, 6,579,OOO couples
we're married, l,118,OOO more than the num-
Der for normal times. Many rushed to the
altar only a week or two after they met;
had honeymoon marriage cut short by
the mans call overseas. These GI's come back
to wives they hardly know. One sailor didn't
recognize his wife on his return because she
had cut her hair.
Followed Him !. 500 Miles
A 16-YEAR-oLD GIRL her baby in her arms,
her l9-year-old husband beside her, stood
before Judge Panken last month. Two years
before, she had married that soldier twice;
following him l,5OO miles to his Wisconsin
camp when she learned the first ceremony was
invalid Now she wanted out. Her reason:
81 don't love him any more"
Too young for marriage? Decidedly. DIR.
Ray refuses to perform the ceremony for
brides under % unless their parents consent.
But youth of itself is no reason for divorce.
Youth can make 60 of marriage with un-
derstanding - even in disaster" says DR..
Ray.
A case in point: The 17-year- honey

Charge: non-support of Mrs. Joe and her
baby.
1t sounds inexcusable. But wait Joe came
home last June after three full years in the
Pacific. The baby arrived six weeks later
Joe will probably get divorce. So will
thousands of other servicemen and their wives.
Says DR.. Clifford r. Adams, director of
Pennsylvania State Colleges marriage coun-

out of every ten marriages will end i'm

So things are mess? Don't forget they
were all snarled up after the last war, too.
Yet out of that confusion came fine genera
ton. Our present CTS have done swell job.
Their wives have, too. You know how they
have stood up to hard times.
II Takes Tolerance and Time
WITH that in mind, we need not be too
pessimistc now Things will be difficult for
while, of course 1t will take tolerance on the
part of all concerned, and time to iron out the
difficulties But It can be done.
Closing our eyes to the truth won't help.
So let's look the facts in the face.
Exactly how bad is the situation today?
asked judges, ministers and psychologists,
consulted Court records and Census Bureau
statistics. Two out of every ii marriages now
end in divorce Although an all-time, all
world high, that figure is rising. Court dock
cts are crowded.
A clerk at New York's Supreme Court told
me: This place is madhouse. We have the
heaviest calendar in history. Our cases have
almost tripled this year, and half of them in
volve war marriages"
The tragedies are endless. There's the Yer
mont CT who married an ltalian-Amerlcan
girl three weeks after he met her and came
home to find her emotional ways unsuited to
his reticent New England background. He's
suing for divorce.
There's the major overseas who heard
rumors his wife was stepping out. NO
truth to it, but he isn't even coming back
to find out before filing suit for divorce.
There's the but you can probably add
more from your own acquaintance.
Yet most CTS are eager to get home; most
wives to have them Authority for that state
