RADIO CONTEST
TESTS MEMORY

The conviction that people have
good memories and that young
people are alert about radio is the
basis for the contest being spon-
sored by Art Szerlip of the Art
Coin Radio Co. with the person
giving the longest, accurate list of
radio brand names being declared
the winner.
1t doesn't require a radio ham
or even radio addict to recall a
number of radio brands. Mr.. Seer
lip says that makes now obsolete
may properly be included in any
list submitted, just so long as it is
a bona fida name of a radio. When
asked how many brands there
were altogether, Mr.. Szerlip only
replied there were lots of them.
Here's chance to see how good
you are and who knows, maybe
you'll win that radio. The contest
ends in two weeks.

MORTON PALMER VERSATILE

Not many persons know that
Morton Palmer, owner and phar-
macist for Palmer Pharmacy, E.
9th, is also an accomplished muSl-
clan with experience not only in
name bands but also of Hebrew
and Yiddish music.
Busy days at the pharmacy don't
leave much time for playing his
alto saxaphone he admits, tho oc-
casionally of a Sunday jam ses-
sion spontaneously develops at his
house. Then he recalls the days
when he played for Sophie Tuck
er, and with the Ted Lewis and
Mark Fisher bands; also broad
casts with the WIS Barn Dance.
Indeed for a time in the early 30s
he sailed the seas playing in ship
bands as far as China.
And Mrs. Palmer, his genial,
likeable wife, is just as proud
about her musician husband as she
is regarding his as the "bestest"
pharmacist there is.

American Jews have unfortun-
ately come under the false and
paralyzing spell of minority think
ing. More and more we speak of
ourselves as minority and allow
others to label us as such. Re-
form Judaism can perform a vital
service by exposing this fallacy and
leading American Israel on the
highway to new approach"
DIR. Lehman continued: Though
Jews sometimes speak of them
selves as the chosen people, a
great many of them act in their
lives and in their inner emotional
reactions as though Israel were
the respected people,
"There is a corroding inferiority
mood in our midst. This can only
be conquered if we attain new
clarity both about our position
and function in the world. We
must come in the first place to
reject the growing description of
American Jewry as minority
group. We are in fact great his
toric religious community, able out
of our four thousand years of ex-
perience to emphasize reason and
to teach hope = universal and
unique motifs desperately needed
by the human race. Not minority
status but equality status in the
religious symphony of humanity
must be our first contemporary
Jewish declaration of independ-
ence'."

Radio Drama
Slated for Sunday

A radio drama entitled sThe
Things 1 Saw" based on Chester
BOWles' report on his recent tour
OF Europe as International Chair
man of the United Nations Appeal
for Children, will be presented by
the Eternal Light on Sunday, May
9, 1913 (NBC network, 1891 100
p. M. DST). The script for the
broadcast was written by Irve
Tunick.
AS related in 1.-THE Things I
Saw" Mr.. Bowles undertook his
European mission at the request
OF Secretary-General Trygve Lie
of the United Nations. He began
his trip with the knowledge that
one out of every two children in
the world today is starving; that
many youngsters have no hope of
ever growing up to normal adult
hood. He was completely unpre-
pared, however, for the shock of
seeing these Statistics" come to
life in the wasted bodies of Eu-
ropes children.
He left Europe impressed with
the incredible senselessness of war
which can take such a toll in
human suffering, and with the fact
that the survivors mean to keep
peace for themselves and for their
children. But if the world of
tomorrow is divided in two" he
states in the script, "it will be
because half of that world
will have grown up hungry, en-
FILTERED and desperate"
At the conclusion of the pro-
gram there will be a brief address
by Aake Ording, Director of the
United Nations Appeal for Child
rem and Norwegian delegate to
the U. N.

New Czechoslovak
Constitution Makes
Anti-Semitism Illegal

PRAGUE (JTA)-The draft of
the new Czechoslovak constitution
which is scheduled to be submitted
to the parliament this week, will
guarantee freedom of conscience
and religion and places all re-
ligions on an equal basis, it was
learned here.
An important new provision in
the constitution is the prohibition
on disseminating Nazi and fascist
propaganda in any form, as we'll
as racial intolerance and national
chauvinism. Previously, the law
only prohibited and punished per-
sons who publicly melted racial
violence. The new constitution
makes any demonstration of anti
Semitism a criminal offense.

IS, overseas Needs and PALESTINE
Mr.. Coleman stressed the plight:
of the Jewish survivors in Europe,
most Of whom, he said, are still
dependent on aid from America for
their everyday living needs, as
well as for the rehabilitative aid
that they require to become once
again self-supporting citizens of
their present countries of resi-
dence, or of Palestine and the
United States where many of
them hope to find new homes.
Mr.. Coleman pointed out that
this years record United Jewish
Appeal drive must provide for the
immigration of $4,000 homeless
European Jews to Palestine and
the settlement and upbuilding of
that country; for continued aid to
the 100000 displaced Jews in
Central Europe, to the majority
of the $4,000 Jews in Eastern
Europe and tens of thousands in
Western Europe; and for adjust
ment and administration services
for newcomers to our country, who
are arriving at the rate of 1000
per month.

tive in the civic and philanthropic
affairs of Jacksonville. He is a

WASHINGTON

Rumors are current in Washing
ton these days that the United
States may yet reverse itself an
other time on its Palestine policy.
The rumors float about despite
anv obvious course which the u.
S. might elect to replace the trus-
teeship plan which was substituted
for the partition plan.
And the rumors fly despite the
fact that the first reversal, from
partition to trusteeship, has never
been fully explained. Those close
to the scene here say it happened
this way:
President Truman was convinc-
ed by numbers of Congressman
and Senator's and other prominent
citizens, both Jews and nOn-Jews,
who called at the White House
that half-a-lOaf partition - was
the best solution that could be
arrived at for the decades old
problem of the Holy Land. He
agreed to the partition plan even
though he did not share their very
firm conviction. And he yielded
to the pressure against the advice
OF certain prominent State De-
partment advisors.
Having made the decision, how
ever, he went along with it and
took measures to ensure it's sue
cess, such as the appointment of
General John H. Hilldring to adj
wise the U. N. delegation and to
bolster the sagging State Depart
ment support of the plan. Hill
drlng was known and trusted by
the Jews because of his admirable
work on the displaced persons
problem both in the War Depart
ment and later as Assistant Sec
rotary Of State for OccupiedcAreas.
Almost as soon as the vote on
partition was taken, however, the
whole project began to fall apart
at the seams. General HiIIdring's
JOD came to an end and no move
was made to keep him on in a ca
paclty in which he might have
worked toward the augmentation
VI partition. U. S. Deputy Repre-
sentative to the u. N, HerscheI
'OnnSon, was taken ill. In one
way or another all the architects
VI the partition plan were put out
OF the running.
Ailhough pleased with the sue

aeilt Truman soon showed his hand
