HAVE BEEN receiving inquiries
from many sides as to what is the atti-
tude of major Jewish organizations to-
ward the controversial John Birch Society.
The Society," which has emerged as the
newest Spearhead of ultra conservatism in
the United States, is rallying extreme
right-Wing groups to renew efforts for
unity in political movement
Anti Semitic propagandistS, such as
Conde Mckinley and Merwin K. Hart,
were quick to announce their endorse
ment and support of the Birch Society.
The vitriolic anti-Semitic hate sheet, Com
mon Sense, carried an editorial strongly
lauding the Society.
On the other hand, some of the active
members of the Birch Society claim that
the group is not only far from being anti
Jewish but that it even has Jews as mem
bers of its cells.
Robert H. W. Welch, Jr, the leader of
the Birch Society," specifically disclaimS re-
ligiouS bigotry. The reaction of Jewish or
CARNATIONS to these assurances is that
while they may be sincere, the Societys
arch-conServative program makes it ma
tural target for infiltration by religious
and racial hatemongers. The Jewish or
ganizations see little difference between
the goals of the Birch Society and those
espoused by numerous ultra-conservative
movements which have sprung up from
time to time since the 1905.
The Society, founded by Mr.. Welch,
a retired candy manufacturer, currently
claims 100000 members in "a states An

Birch Society Denies Bigotry

nual dues are $24 for men and $12 for
women. Most members seem to be persons
of repute in their home communities
many associated previously with other
rightwing groups Mr. Welchs advisory
council includes Clarence Manion, for
mer dean of Notre Dame Law School;
Spruille Braden, former u S. Ambassa-
dor to Argentina; and T. Coleman An
drews, former U. S. Internal Revenue
Commissioner.
However, the Society operates under
the Leadership principle" with Mr..
Welch as the supreme leader. 1t is an
authotarian organization of "cellS" con-
sisting of no more than 20 members each,
pledged to adherence to the leadership
principle" Members meet to carry out
Welch's objectives in their home commu-
mites, generally avoiding identification as
Birchers. Anyone who objects to their
methods is ipso facto considered by them
as ro-Communist.
The local programs are administered
from offices in Belmont, Mass, by Welch
and a paid staff of "coordinators" who
visit the "cells" as his emissaries, dis
pensing directives, advice and orientation.
In California, the Governor has ordered
a state investigation into the activities of
the Birch Society. In Washington, some
critics have called for probes by Con-
gressional investigating committees. How
ever, Attorney General Robert F. Kenne-
dy has termed the Birch Society "ridicu-
lous," suggesting it might best be laughed
out of existence.

JERUSALEM-lhe drama IN the Joru-
salem Belt Ham concerns the trial of
Adolf Eichmann and the holocaust which
cost the Jewish people during the Second
World War six million victims It is not
the trial of Jewish leaders whose conduct
both inside occupied Europe and in the
Allied countries, is sometimes raised as
a marginal issue Nor is it the trial of
the collaboratorS from among the non
Jewish population in the occupied coun
tries.
Still the role played by the local popu-
lations and particularly by the officials
and the police, seem to be an integral part
of the usually tragic but sometime heart
ening picture The behavior of these peo-
pie ranged the entire spectrum of human
decency and is, usually, a reflection of the
extent to which anti-Semitism corroded
the moral fiber of the societies in each
of the countries involved.
Thus, witnesses have testified how the
Lithuanian and the Ukranian population
and militia, by and large, gladly cooper
ated with the Nazis in sealing off the ghet-
tos, apprehending the Jews, informing on
the few who tried to hide.
The picture in Poland was more mixed.
While Polish gendameria assisted the
Germans in keeping the ghetto sealed, 9th
er Poles were hiding Jews by the hun
dreds The two main organizations of the
Polish underground assisted the Jewish
resistance movement in the ghettoS as
1oA 70
but the third, right-wing underground
movement cooperated with the Nazis in
apprehending Jews and handing them
over to the Germans
In SloVakia, the regime and the popu-
lation, by and large, was anti-Semitic; but
even the Fascist BratiSlaVa Government
objected to the idea that the Jews, whom
it handed over to the Germans and even
paid per capita fee for their deportation
to the East should be eXterminated. And
the SlOVak PARTISAN movement helped the
Jews, many of whom were among its most
active members. In Bohemia and MoraVia,
which had no important antiSemitic ira
dition, active anti-Semitsm during the oc-
cupatiOn was considered tantamount to
the despised collaboration with the Ger
mans.
In France, the picture was rather
complicated one The Laval Government,
generally, did not put up resistance when
the Germans were apprehending non

French Jews. However, when it came to
Frenchborn Jews, even Laval was sur
priSingly firm, to the extent of refusing,
at least at the beginning, permission to
the French police and gendarmerie to give
any help to the Germans in their efforts
to catch the Jews and deport them Also,
the Belgians, to some extent, opposed the
antiJeWish measures, and many of the
Belgian Jews who survived the German
occupation - particularly children - owe
their lives to the local population, includ
ing monasteries and converts where many
Jews found refuge.
The Dutch population, except for few
collaborators, was firmly against the anti
Jewish measures, and the trade unions
even organized a general strike in defense
of their Jewish fellow citizens. This re-
sistance was responsible, to a large ex-
tent, for the fact that about 10000 of the
100000 Dutch Jews were never deported
from Holland. and that about 5000 chill
dren of those who were deported were
hidden and saved by the Christians
The resistance of the entire Danish
population, under the marvellous example
of their King, has already become a leg
end. Forwarned by German official, who
is now a high official of the Bonn Foreign
Ministry, the Danish authorities in two
days evacuated practically the entire Jew
iSh population to Sweden and the Ger
mans managed to capture only about 500
Danish Jews. The Norwegian underground
and population also succeeded in SNUG
Cling more than half of the Jewish pop
ulation of their country into safety in
Sweden.
The attitude of the Italians is a special
story in itself. The fascist regime of Mus
solini was not anti-Semitic and, until the
Germans occupied Italy, only some eco
nomic measures were put into effect
against the Jews After the German occu-
patton. thousands of Italian Jews found
refuge in Christian homes, converts, mon
aSterieS and Catholic as well as Protestant
institutions. The Italian Army, in some
cases, even employed force to prevent the
GeStapO from depOrting Jews not only in
Italy but also in Italian occupied parts of
Southern France
Moreover this friendly attitude of the
Italian authorities was always among the
main arguments employed by the quisling
regimes in Slovakia, Hungary, Rumania
and other countries allied with the Ger
mans in opposing the Nazi pressure for
the expulsion of their Jewish population

54IlIIIlIIrIIHTH by David Schwartz
MIR. BEN GURION drop
ped in for a little stay.
When he was here 10
years ago-only a few years
after the establishment of
the state, he came to launch
the first Israel bond cam
paign.
We Jews don't go in for
parades. Every year in New
York. on St. Patrick'S Day,
the Irish take over with a
parade. The Poles have their
day when they go stepping
up Fifth Avenue. But Jews
don't parade. But this time,
when Ben-Gurion came to
launch the Bond Drive, mil
lions of people turned out in
the streets to get a look at
the Prime Minister of a Jew
ish State as he pa s. d
through the streets.
I was standing looking. Be-
side me simple Italian
looked on. He said casually,
half to me, half to himself:
"It's good. Every people got
to have a country"
THE REMARK made a
strong impression and led
me to make my first essay
in free verse. I thought what
would Walt Whitman say
about it. 1t would have been
right up his alley. He liked
to depict the electric feeling
of crowds and great events. 1
didn't do as good as the erSt-
while singer who chanted of
the m tley throngS on
Brooklyn Bridge, but l wrote
a little poem. I said in the
procession l could not only
see Ben-Gurion. Behind him
in other cars rode Pinsker,
and Achad Ham and Max
Nordau and Herzl rose up to
bow to the cheering Israel
who foretOld the restoration
of Zion-and behind them,
singing the songs of Zion
walked the six million Jews
put to death by the NaZiS.
Ben-Gurion is returning at
a time when he is a much
more controversial figure in
JeWry than when he first
came. No public figure can
expect uninterrupted smooth
sailing. Washington and JEFF
ferSon had their political
storms. Democracy thrives
on differences of opinion.
is r A E l. IS celebrating
Book Week. They seem to
like books in Israel for the
Book Week there lasts ten
daVS. That's longer than
most weeks.
The Jerusalem Post re-
ports that during this week,
at one store in Jerusalem,
books at certain hours were
selling at the rate of a book
d minute.
l don't know how world
peace can be brought about,
but if books the world over
CoU:d be sold at the rate of
a book a minute, l am sure
that somehow we would find
the road to peace.
With all this reading 60
ing Oh, l presume it won't
be long before we shall see
Israel as an important cen
ter OF literary production.
We shall look forward to an
Israeil receiving the Nobel
Prize. Both Bialik and Mar
tin Buber in the past were
mentioned in that connec-
ton.

Attempts Suicide

VATICAN CITY, Dec. Is
(AP).-An unemployed worker

the day of Christmas. <
Gendarmes of the Vatican
pontifical guards said the man,
Antonio Peluso, 35 from Naples,

Structures in Japan are

SANTA TRADES

INDIANAPOLIS (AP).-
Santa Claus used a paddy

stead of his sleigh and
reindeer.
1t was part of the police
departments "Oper a tion

The project started with
help for a mother and her
four children, but so many
donations were received the
project was expanded to
include other needy fam
lilies.
Santa "a policeman in
Santa's garb) and two uni
formed policemen made the
rounds in the paddy wagon
loaded with presents.
We've hauled a lion, an
alligator and more drunks
then we can count, but this
is the first time we've ever
had Santa in the back of
the wagon, said PATROL
