of Israels attributes. Normally
Israel was a tolerant fellow. In
his natural state he merely re-
garded the brother who disagreed
with him as a person who was in
error and might be brought
around.
But in recent years he has de-
scended from this lofty height
of civilized disagreements. Zion
ist and anti-Zionist have been at
each others throatS. On one side,
to be anti-Zionist has been re-
garded as treason for which the
anti-Zionist might as we'll be
hanged; on the other, political
Zionist has been disposed by some
of the opposition as a person with
a double allegiance who was a
kind of fifth columnist in the
American scene.
It's about time we took hold
again of our friendly tolerance.
We really aren't like a lot of sus-
picious Jugoslavs who want to
hang one another. We have been
in civilization too long a time for
that. Hating each other on ac-
count of ideas is no part of us.

that despite the hate-breathing
Zionist letter-writer I, neverthe-
less, had some Jewish virtues. 1
had brought up my children who
were respectable people; I was
myself Jew who in all ways had
tried to honor the Jewish name;
I had tried to be a decent guy all
my life. And all that was the
main end of being Jewish. Jew
ish nationalism, Jewish culture,
Jewish learning were all extra
curricular to that. My wife could

PLAIN TALK
by ALFRED SEGAL
FANATICISM

FAINA1
My wife has been horribly
troubled on account of me and
almost ashamed. We have been
married a long time and in her
own experience of me she has
found me a fairly decent sort.
Yes, I do irritate her at times,
especially on those occasions
when I say, No, we don't go out
tonight. Isn't home the incest
place of all to be in? Then there
are the vacation times when l
have insisted on taking vacation
at home. I generally lose.
I am mentioning these matters
to show that my wife hasn't had
too much cause to be ashamed of
me, until lately. I have always
provided well for my family,
have been faithful to my marriage
vows, have conducted myself in
all things in the respectable way
that our social morals require.
But lately my wife hasn't been
so sure about me. She has been
reading letters in various of the
Jewish press that publish my
column. what kind of rep
utation are you getting around
the country? You should begin
to consider and take heart what
people think of you. You at your

gin to think of your respectable

There had lately grown up an
alarming fanaticism in Israel. It
has to do pro and con with the
ideology called Jewish national
ism. Fanaticism had been alien
to Jewish life for long time
until now.
What had been my offense? 1t

however, about publications in
the periodical or magazine field.
Only few years ago there was
almost no publication of this kind
about Judaism and Jews, written
in English, which the reader of
normal 10. could peruse without
wincing. The typical issue con-
tanned lists of Jewish "notables'
and their notable contributions
to what was optimistically consid-
cred as "good WILL" pictures of
Jews presenting American flags
to American Legion posts, names
of those who sent Rosh Hashanah
or Pesach greetings, and the ad-
vertiSementS of well intentioned
gentle business men. Such pubs
locations still abound in America.
For many years The MenOrah
Journal has been an honorable
exception. Published quarterly,
this journal is a high medium of
expression in the field of Jewish
history, opinion, art, and scholar
ship. Our people think so little
of this great, independent enter
prise that two of the four issues
for 1916 had to be omitted. For
five dollars one may subscribe to
this journal; for one hundred dol
lars one may become friend of
The MenOrah Journal. Surpris-
ing how little noise and money
are required to support the most
significant undertakings. in Jewish
life. The fact that this journal
has survived at all is tribute to
its stubbornly independent editor,
Henry Hurwitz, and to the people
who buy and read it.
A more recent arrival in the
field of literate Jewish publica-
tions is Commentary, a monthly
magazine formerly known as The
Contemporary Jewish Record.
This journal is published by the
American Jewish Committee, but
by no means limits its expression
of opinion to the official line of
the Committee. However you
look at it, Commentary is great
venture. Each month it brings
meaningful comment on both the
transient and permanent problems
of Jewish life. Consider Will
Herberg's article in the current
issue: FROM Marxism to Jud-
aism." Here is a Jewish publica-
ton which compares well with
the best in the general American
field. Now that we have it, we
wonder how on earth we man

tant business,
privately. The charge has been
made in other communities, too.
1t may be true; and it may be that
in our comparatively young Jew
ish community, with a high rate
of population flux, it is difficult
to have continuity of organiza-
tional life, without having more
or less permanent nucleus in con-
troll.
Yet, the absence of democratic
processes in an institution is
harmful, even where the men,
bership contributes generously
and responds favorablysto organi-
rational functions. For thinking,
free individuals cannot remain in
terested in any organization in
which they have the responsible
ity of support but not the demo-
cratic right to determine major
policies. Furthermore, VIII er e
there is no mass participation in
the shaping of its policies, an or
ganization fails to educate new
leaders. It can live, therefore,
only as long as its present clique
rules or as long as it is refresh
ed" by new members, trained
elsewhere. There are thus, "suc-
, cessful," prosperous institutions
that have produced few or no
leaders. They survive only be-
cause their outward success" at
tracts those persons who are will
ing to contribute their leadership
and talents, either for money or
for social recognition.
Absence of democracy in an in
stitution is symptom of ILL
health, despite outward signs to
the contrary. 1t is the duty of
members who detect that state
not to leave the organization in
disgust, or to become inactive, as
they are often inclined to do.
(France might never have reach
ed her pre-war plight, if the op-
ponents of the Lavals had been
more active and tactfully aggres-
sive.) They must first prove to
themselves that their organiza-
ton is undemocratic and when
they know that to be irrefutably
true, they must fight for democ-
racy, from within. They must
continue to fight from within, un-
less they become convinced that
the leadership is incorrigibly cor
rupt, and the following is hope
lessly duped and mislead. Such
a state of affairs. is indeed rare.
Generally, fair, intelligent and
courageous individuals can fight
successfully for democracy in any
organization or institution, wheth-
er it be the synagogue, the Zion
ist and Hadassah chapters, B'nai
Birth lodges, or Council. They can
fight successfully, and they should.

Shipments of Lumber Move
 From Juneau
James Huston, Resident Engineer, Has Large
 Force on CE Dock

The Corps of Engineers Dock, formerly known as the Support, the Government dock and many other titles, is now operating l3 tugs and 40 harges out of Juneau. James w. Huston, the Resident Engineer, reported that the Engineers have purchased and transported more than 260 million board feet of lumber from Southeast Alaska for shipment to Alaskan Military h. stallations and to our bases in the South Pacific.
 The primary object of the En- gineers Dock, MT. Huston said, IS to buy all available lumber in Southeast Alaska and transport it to various military installations mainly Fort Richardson and Ladd Field The lumber is brought to the stockpiles via Engineer tugs and barges and shipped from here to Anchorage, Seward and Whit tier by sea-going tugs and barges. In addition to the movement of lumber, the local office is engaged in transporting asphalt by barge from San Francisco and Oakland to Seward for transhipment to the interior airfields.
 Mir. Huston said the present per- sonnel strength of the Corps oi Engineers operating in Juneau is in the vicinity of 250, of which SC percent are residents of Juneau and Douglas, and have been for a number of years. The monthly payroll amounts to $82,000. At least Sl2,0O0 is spent by the Corps of Engineers for local purchases within the Gastineau Channel area every month.

PLENTY SUSPENSE IN THRILLER NOW
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Crowded with thrills, mystery and suspense, Behind Green Lights, V 20th Century-Fox' new action hit starring Carole Landis and William Gargan, is a. the 20th Century to- night for the last two showings.
 The tense and surprise-packed film is said to combine every ele- ment of high and absorbing enter tainment with a murder that starts a battle between big-town politi- clans and the police; a baffling mystery that surrounds the disap- pearance of a corpse that walked right out of the morgue; and the romance of a young police officer who has to book for murder a beautiful blonde he'd much rather kiss.
 Carole Landis is seen as Janet Bradley, the daughter of a reform mayoralty candidate, charged with murder she did not commit.
 William Gargan portrays a young police lieutenant who is torn be- tween his duty to book Janet for murder on circumstantial evidence end his romantic interest in her.
 The entire story involves just l2 hours at a Metropolitan Police sta- tion and the unraveling of thrill ing mystery.
