Dear Sir:
Never has the Orlando and
Central Florida Jewish Commu-
uity been as aroused as it was
this week. When the so-called
IOrange County Ministerial AL
lance composed of Evangelical
Ministers who excluded the Uni
tartan and Jewish MiniSters) in
troduced the teaching of Bible
New Testament primarily in
the Orange County Schools we
Jewish people entered formal
protest with the Orange County
School Board. They informed us
that they could not stop this pro-
cedure as it was the request of
the Ministers of Orange County
and the teacher was hired by
them and paid by them. They
suggested that the Jewish group
also hire teacher and 60 into
the Public Schools. We did not
do this. We felt that by doing
this we would be favoring the
introduction of the teaching of
religion in the Public Schools
which is against the American
policy of separation of Church
and State.
But this week a Baptist preach
er Claiming to be a Jew gained
entree to our Public Schools and
preached ''fire and birthstone"
missionizing series of actresses to
Public School assemblies. In ad-
dition he has formented Anti
Semitic feeling among children
and adults by emphasizing cha
tired of the Jew until he accepts
Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior"
The fine feeling of Christian
Jewish good will and understand
ing which has reigned in Cen
trail Florida has been terribly
strained. His rantings and rawlings
have seriously disturbed our
"City Beautiful"
We, who love the American
right of free speech, cannot leg
ally STOP this religious fanatic
and bigot. But we can and MUST
develop a program of Democra-
tic public Relations. We too must
get recourse to Radio, Newspa-
pers, Public Forum and Parent
Teachers Association. Every Jew
ish mother must join and attend
the Parent Teachers Associations
and know what is going on in
the schools. Every Jew must be-
come familiar with the members
of our County School Board. We
must know the men and women
who run for public office and
know how to vote intelligently to
get the right people for these
important jobs in our community
life.
Let us import, if necessary,
liberal-minded Ministers to speak
out for Democracy and Religious
Freedom and Brotherhood. Our
B'nai Birth Lodges have more
serious task in challenging the
inroads of bigots in our Public
Schools and the growing tenden-
CIV to misSionize in our Public
Schools. There are still enough |
intelligent Christians and devoted
who are getting
mighty sick of these "fire and
birthstone" tactics at Conversion.
In American we believe in the
right of worship. This right is

Writer Dore Scharey from David o.
Selznick's organization and transfer
him to a top vice presidency in
RKO's setup.
One reason for this interest is
what it may mean for the recovery
Of one of Mr.. Scharey's buried works,
a screen script on the life Of Simon
Boliar, the Liberator.
The potential vice president of
RKO reSearched elaborately on the
subject several years ago. Many Of
his studies were conducted here. He
has never returned since without
some irksome character asking:
Whatever happened to your Bolivar
project? Last time Scharey had an
answer.
Nothing, really he admitted. "I
still think it is a great idea, but the
way the script goes 1t would cost
from $4,000, 900 to maybe twice that
to make movie of 1t. I'm the only
one, I suppose, who thinks 1t is
worth spending that much on"
Can any one think of better
project on which a new vice presi-
dent could test out his power and
influence upon his fellow executives?
Neither can we.

the Nazis dominated France. but
rather is just 4 suggestion that a
better picture might have been made
had the producers waited for q bet
ter script than Pierre Nord's novel,

provided.
The story told here Is a melodra-

the point Of implausibility y-about q
French intelligence officer who
works himself up to high rank in
the Gestapo He manages to stay
with 1t long enough to pass back
some valuable information, meet q
pretty French girl and aid the un-
derground considerably before he
is discovered. It is hardly an ex-
traordinary spy story.
still there is much to recon-
mend about Resistance" For one
thing, it is skillfu,ly acted, as most
French pictures are, with a really
superior performance of the lead
ing role by Lucian Coedel, who is
somewhat reminiscent Of Jean
Cabin. There Is great deal OF
realism about the affairs Of the
underground's war, too, as they are
pictured here. Life was not beau
tiful for the French in those days
of NaM domination and they have
set down dramatically on celluloid
some Of the less pleasant facts
They have also set down some
heroic moments--such as the sing
Ing of Ia Marsellaise" by a group

In today's very mail, OF all places

Her new job, in case you do not

Furthermore, she will advise on
