many; how strong, though not
open, are the efforts to win the
sympathy of Germany, to win the
Nazis of yesterday as possible
allies or mercenaries of tomorrow!
England extends it's pity for the
victims also to the guilty, and
America looks from afar ON the
destroyed European nations as if
they were wooden paWns on the
chessbOard, and it looks on de-
strOyed Europe as if it were
chessbOard ready for another
game.
In the summer of 1889, before 1
crossed the border, a few friends
came to see me to bid me farewell.
Josef Capek, the author and dram
atist was among them. He told
us of his vision of how we would
get back our freedom, describing
the parade on the Wenzelsplatz
in Prague on the day of liberation.
"At the head of the parade there
will be our jews" he said, "fOr
they will suffer most. A great Star
of David will be carried before the
Jews, a star entirely of gold as a
sign of honor. Benes will follow
in his car. Then you who fought
for the homeland beyond the bOrd-
ers will follow. Then there will
be an empty space, there will be
nobody for a long time, and after
this great pause we will march,
we who stayed in the country will
be the last ones in the parade be-
cause-well, what will we be able
to do here after aH?"
The arrangement would be an
other one today, and precisely
man like Capek and those related
to him by their works and fates
would have to precede all thu
others. But am not sure whethe
the organizers of this imaginar.
parade would include the Czecl
Jews, to give them satisfaction
for all the humiliation they hat
to suffer. Is this perhaps because
the Capeks, the human beings
with warm compassionate hearts
died throughout the world during
those six years?

owners as if they had emerged

energies, increases, and vanishes in
line with the political, economic
and social fluctuations. This fact
would not be tragic one in itself.
However, it is tragic that the fate
of the Jews is being forgotten by
other people.
After the unspeakable sufferings
Of four, five or six million Jews,
sufferings which were unique in
the history of mankind and beyond
imagination, we could have ex-
pected that, at a given moment,
gigantic wave of compassion
would have arisen. We could have
expected that the surviving Jews,
because of the fate their national
brethren suffered, would have been
received by the world like miners
brought up from a caved in mine
or like people rescued by miracle
from a wrecked ship.
Instead tens of thousands of
Jewish refugees are wandering a
round the world, abandoned and
disappointed, not daring to look
for support to anybody except a
Jew who is as miserable and i'm
potent as himself. The world does
not bother about these tens of
thousands of Ahasveruses, world
which was able to create in a
stroke armies of millions of people
Nobody makes any effort to find
asylum for them, and no country
wants to accept them, even if there
is room for millions of people.
Look at the Nuremberg Trials
where so many crimes were pun
ished, but the crimes committed
against Jews = which certainly
were not the smallest ones-were
pushed into the background, as
if it was not proper to talk about
them. Or read our, laws and de-
crees regarding the surviving
Jews, they are very clear. 1T is as
if the intention was to ignore this
group, and it is not astonishing
that, by superficial Interpretation
of the DEGREES, many Jews had to
leave the country together with
the expelled Germans. Or think
of this: Had it not been for Jan
Masaryk, those who returned
would not have heard hearty
word of welcome from any official.

tivitieS from January to Septem-
Der 30, 1916, although Veterans of
Foreign Wars had spent nothing, and
the other two organizations had not
yet filed their expenses as this sur
vey was made.
Appropriations for the 1947 fiscal
year for pensions was 81, 9O5, OOO, 200
and for 1916 it was $1,000, 150, 900.
Gil. bill benefits which include SUBJ
sistence and other benefits, exclu-
sive of unemployment compensa-
ton, totaled $3,491, 387, 600 for 1947
and $795, 0O0,0 900 for the 1916 fiscal
year. Terminal leave pay appro-
priation for 1947 was $2,431, 708, 0GO.
This was to be issued in five-year
bonds. Now the veterans want their
terminal leave in cash, and they
likely will get it.
So in all probability the expendi-
lures for our war veterans will take
a decided hike for the 1913 fiscal
year in the face of promise and
an expressed determination by the
new Republican leadership to slash
the cost Of government. Congress
man Dwight L. Rogers of Florida
told your Home Town Reporter that
he had reserved House Bill No.
at the coming session, so the second
bill to be introduced into the house
will be Congressman Rogers bill to
provide that terminal leave bonds
may be cashed Immediately by vet
Grams if they so desire.

Living Memorials

The men who fought in World
War II probably will be honored in
most communities not with monu-
ments but with Giving memorials"
according to survey of the Rus
sell Sage foundation. A letter from
an American sergeant overseas felt
that any man in the service would
rather see his name inscribed over
zone small swing" in a playground
than on "all the marble-columned
temples in the world. A logical
form for the living memorial is the
community center, defined as "a
community building or buildings
planned and equipped to serve the
leisure-time needs of a particular
neighborhood," or in human terms
as ''the organization of the resi-
dents of the neighborhood, demo,
cratically, for the purpose of :.
promoting the community interest"
The purpose is described as two
fold: to enrich the lives of the COM
munity's members, and to revival
ize our democracy sin its ancient
home, the neighborhood," by deep
ening the individuals understand
ing of his responsibilities as a cit
iZen.

recorded in any state since the an
cient weapon was revived as a hunt

partment said. Of the total kill.
126 deer were taken in the Necedah
wildlife refuge. This take included
IS bucks and So does. In the other
open areas of the state LOT deer were
arrow-killed. A total of 80 of these
