JERUSALEM, (JTA)- Ameri-
can Jews, as a community and as
individuals, have only one politi-
cal attachment and that is to the
United States, Premier David Ben
Gurion of Israel declared here.
After praising the material and
political support of American jew
nv and their "warm hearted and
practical idealism'' which, he said,
has been one of the principal
sources of Israel's strength and
success, the premier said that GER
tain misunderstanding about the
relations between American Jew
ry and Israel are ''likely to alien
ate sympathies and create dishar-
mony where friendship and close
cooperation are of vital impor-
tance."
No Meddling Abroad
He pointed out that from the
earliest days of it's existence "the
government clearly stated without
any reservation that the state OF
Israel represents and speaks only
in behalf of it's own citizens, and
in no way presumes to represent
or speak in the name of Jews who
are citizens of any other coun-

On the eve of the Korean war
JWB was serving at more than

doubly hard.
Jews are admitted to Polish col
leges under the quota system, ex-
planned Mr.. Korrick, adding, how
ever, that it is not in the least
difficult for a young Jew to gain
an education if he had the means
and desire for one. The education
al standards, he said, are very
high.
ASKED ABOUT the attitude of
the Polish Jews to the various
Jewish colonization movements, he
said that their chief hope lies in
Palestine and in the South Ameri-
can republics. In the Russian pro-
ject they have less faith, although
economic conditions are said to be
better in Russia.
The Joint Distribution Commit
tee, which has it's headquarters in
Berlin, is doing wonderful work
in alleviating the suffering of
European Jews. Before leaving for
Poland, Mr.. Korrick had talk
with the European director of the
J.D.C. in Berlin and learned much
of the fine service to humanity
which the J.D.C. is giving.
Mr.. Korrick says that his trip
has been interesting and educa-
tional, but "it's mighty good to
be back in the old U.S.A." he de-
clared.

(From the Southwestern Star,
Aug. Is, 1926

southwestern Star, CnarleS hOT-
rick, recently returned from a
tour of several months through
Europe with Mrs. Korrick, gave
some interesting reports on pres
ent European conditions and dis
cussed the Jews in Europe from
the viewpoint of a keen and
thoughtful observer.
Asked if a "Jewish Problem"
exists in Europe today, Mr.. Kor-
rick said that Jews meet with re-
spect and fair treatment every
where in Europe with the excep-
ton of Germany, which he termed
'rhot-bed" of anti-Semitism.
England, Mr.. Korrick said, holds
probably the most liberal attitude
towards Jews both politically and
socially, while economic opporturf-
tiles are open to all. Mussolini and
the Italian government, too, are
very friendly toward the Jews. AL
though the German political attl-
tude is extremely unfriendly, RE
economic status of the Jew in
Germany is comparatively good.
His business ability gives him an
economic prestige which, though
unwillingly conceded, cannot be
denied.
IN POLAND, Mr.. Korrick said,
he found the most deplorable
economic conditions in all Europe.
In Warsaw, in Bialystock, every
where he found the people suffer
ing the most extreme conditions.
Poland's large woolen mills and
tanneries, which did a thriving
business with the interior of Rus
sia during the Russian rule, are
shut down and inactive.
The future of Poland, Mr.. Kor-
rick said, looks extremely doubt
full and unhappy. Unable to mar
ket her manufactured wares and
without natural resources, she is
indeed in helpless condition.
"I can see nothing in the future
for Poland but a return to her
former status under other govern
ments. It is doubtful whether she
can work out her salvation alone, "
he said.
ASKED ABOUT the condition
of the Jews in Poland, he replied
that, due to the fact that they
were nearly all engaged in COM
mercial enterprises, they are much
harder hit than the Poles by the
severe commercial slump. In fact,
the economic suffering of the
Jews in Poland is unspeakably un-
happy, according to Mr.. Korrick.
Starvation and want have driven
many to suicide.
On arriving in Warsaw, Mr..
Korrick witnessed a double funer-
al procession. On inquiring of a
young English-speaking student
who met him at the station he
was told that the funerals were
those of two young people who
were driven by desperation to sui
eide. One young student with
whom Mr.. Korrick talked declared
that he would sell himself body
and soul for five years to anyone
who would take him to America.
THE HOPE OF America as an
end to their suffering has been
greatly minimized by the immigra-
tion laws, which make it so diff
cult to obtain admission to the
onetime promised Land" It takes
from four to five years after ap-
plication is made to reach the
point of permission to sail for the
United States.
The Polish governments atti'
tude toward the Jews is friendly
and were economic conditions bet
ter, they could be very happy
there, but as it is, the opposite Il
true. The government monopoly or
business, which was formerly II
Jewish hands, makes matters
