A protest against Arab attacks
upon ambulances of the Red
Mogen Dovid, Palestine's counter
part of the Red Cross, was filed
with the United Nations by the
American Red Mogen Dovid for
Palestine, Inc, 22O Fifth Avenue,
New York City.
In letter addressed to Trygve
Lie, United Nations Secretary
General, by Congressman Emanuel
Celler Cd. N. W, national chair
man of the American Red Mogen
Dovid for Palestine, Arabs were
charged with firing upon Red
Mogen Dovid ambulances, in some
instances while the ambulances
were engaged in administering aid
to Moslems, in keeping with the
nonsectarian policy of the Red
Mogen DoVid.

it seems, are in the habit of re-
minding him of his tender age.
Trying to prove he is no worse
than they are, he marks each of
his ramblings through the camp
with corpses. AS soon as he hears
that there is going to be a mass
execution, the boy gets really ex-
cited in anticipation of the amuse-
ment in store for him. He is
careful never to miss one. Yet it
happened on one occasion that
Williams failed to take him along.
Heinen was gloomy and frustrat-
ed. While his eyes followed the
column of the condemned who
marched toward the Valley of
Death, thanked by SIS men, his out
ragged feelings were not unlike
those of an ambitious pupil whom
the teacher had isolated from his
playmates and put in the corner"
When the column had disappeared,
he took his revenge. He picked
out ten prisoners and shot them
down.
But even his zeal does not pre-
vent him from committing a
FAUX PAS once in a while. One
day he started firing at prisoners
working on a structure. Word
got to Wilhaus, and without any
waste of time, he appeared on the
scene in person, stopped the Gull
prit and bawIed him out: do
you have to pick bricklayers for
targets when there is so much
building to be done and so few
to do it" But Heinen would like
to distinguish himself somehow,
or do something out of the Ordi-
nary. And this is not so easy in
a concentration camp. Even such
feat as shooting straight through
several heads at a time, which
would have seemed to be his Origi-
nal invention, was also practiced
by his rival SIS man Fuchs, who
was his equal as far as bravery
was concerned.
The elegant ladies on the ter
race are less we'll known to the
! prisoners. They are the wives
and finances of SIS men, Their
contacts with the prisoners are
rather unofficial and mostly for
fun. Scharfuehrer Steiner, for
instance, used to take a stick
of chalk and mark a white circle
on the breast of prisoner. Then,
in the presence of all the other
prisoners some skilled marksman
would use this circle as his target,
say, at distance of 20 PAGES. In
this way, together with many
others, the noted pediatrician Prof.
Progulski and his son persisted.
The marksman in the professors
case was a certain lady called
Marta Rebauer. She was poor
shot and only the seventh bullet
hit it's mark.
The guests conduct themselves
graciously and offer cigarettes to
one another. These among the
ladies who do not smoke, take

Miss Phillips, whose friends call

Summer and Smoke" is the story

This is an exacting role, requiring

away with it without the experience
that is usually a prerequisite to
such finished behavior.

Thoughts on Life
The Dignity of Work
BY DR.. JOHN W. HOLLAND


LAST WEEK I heard a radio in
terview of Miss Katharine Densford,
head of the organization of Ameri-
al nurses. Art Page, the interview
er, asked her if young women enter
ing training had to begin with the
scrub brush and pail, or if some of
the mental work was now done by
others?
Her reply was a classic: "There is
no mental work for a true nurse"
That reply should be hung up
where all children land a few
adults) could read it.
There is no such thing as mental
work, just a mental mentality look
ing at it. There is no drudgery, just
drudges who do not see the divine
side of their work. The true artist
gets tired but never wearies of his
toll. He is sustained by the creative
work he is doing. Someone said:
"Drudgery is working with the smile
off; artistry is work with the smile
on"
Dodging DrudgerY
A young woman who had been
married for a few years once came
to talk with me. She had eve lived
on a farm until her marriage. Dur
ing her girlhood, her father had been
able to hire people to do some of
the so-called "menial tasks" about
the home, and this woman had
grown up with the mistaken idea
that "hand and back work" was for
inferior people and not for her.
Then she found herself pumped
down into a situation where she
had to do all the things she had once
looked down upon.
The coming of a baby had
doubled her load. What was she to
do? She said that she seriously
thought for a time of running out"
on her young husband, and then a
great thought came to her: eff I do
not do these things, even though
they seem hard, someone else will
suffer by my cowardice."
She took her baby in her arms
and knelt beside her bed: "God, help
me to see the bright side of my
tasks. If Jesus could find happiness
in a carpenter shop, help me to
measure my life by His" She arose,
a reborn woman, and faced her hard
tasks with a prayer in her heart and
a smile upon her face.
America Built by Workers
America has been built up by
workers. Now that some of the hard
est parts of necessary toll can
be done by machines, some light
thinkers among us get the idea that
hard work is beneath them. 1t is
going to require a lot of hard work,
a long pull and a pull all together
for us to dig ourselves out of the
hole of debt into which two wars
have plunged us, but it can be ac-
complished if we can get the idea
expressed by this lovely nurse:
sThere is no mental work for a true
nurse"
I am aware that Christ thought
of life's worths in the form of work.
"Son, go work today in my vine
yard" my Father worketh hither-
to, and I work" II have finished
the work Thou gavest me to do"
Blessed are the people who get
up in the morning in order to get
