Hadassah will this month com-
memorate the 100th anniversary
of Henrietta Szold's birth• It is
especially fitting that her birth-
day should fall in the month of
December, Youth Aliyah month
in Hadassah.
Henrietta Szold was already
in the twilight of her life when
she recognized the urgent need
to bring Jewish children home
to Israel from the dark places of
the world• She devoted her re-
maining years to organizing the

I Between You and Me
By BORIS SMOLAR
(Copyright, 1960, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)
U.J.A. EXPERIMENT: Those who advance doubts
about the future of Judaism in this country should have
attended the first national conference of young Jewish
community leaders from all parts of the country which
was held in New York... Their pessimism would have
evaporated as they listened to the discussions conducted
at tnis conference by young delegates, each of whom has
made his mark as a leader in his local community... None
of the 225 delegates was older than 35 years, and it was
therefore most interesting to observe how the "young
blood" in organized American Jewish life reacted to Tart-'
ous problems concerning Jews in overseas countries... It
was refreshing to see how eagerly these young :Jewish
men and women, some of whom are second generation
American-born, were listening to the experiences in Jewish
leadership related by Edward M. M. Warburg, Philip M.
Klutznick, Dewey D. Stone, Herbert A. Friedman and
others•.. There was an atmosphere of really lively interest
in the questions which these young leaders asked during
the sessions at the three-day conference... And it was
very encouraging to witness the fact that the future of
American Jewish communal life is well secured through
a growing generation of leadership which is strongly Jew-
ish conscious and at the same time thoroughly American
minded... Only two years ago, the father of one of the
young delegates attending the conference expressed his
doubt to me whether his children would be as interested
in Jewish communal affairs as he was...A "big giver" to
Jewish philanthropic causes and one of the most promi-
nent Jews in a large Jewish community, outside of New
York, he wanted his children very much to follow in his
footsteps, but was not certain that this would be the
case... He would have enjoyed it no end to hear one of
his sons talking convincingly at the young leadership
parley about the responsibilities of the young American
Jewish generation toward Israel and Jews in need in other
overseas countries... And it would have been even a
greater joy to him to hear his son telling me later pri-
vately that it was high time for the older generation of
Jewish leadership in this country to make room for young
men like himself in their ranks... The United Jewish

In one volume he manages to tell brilliantly the story ofland admired her, from erself
what the J.D.C. has done since 1914, for Jews in manvlto Hadassah and the great work
lands, under most difficult circumstances... As an his-I Hadassahi was doing• Hers was
torian, he dug into facts behind the J. D. C. work which a deeply moral approach which
could not have been revealed at the time they too k place.
Some of these facts brought out by Mr. Agar are new
even to "old timers" who have been following the J. D. C.
work with admiration for what the organization is doing.
They shed much light on the important role which the
J. D. C. has played at various times in numerous compli-
cated situations when the question of aiding or rescuing
Jews has arisen.
DRAMATIC FACTS: A good part of Mr. Agar's book
is, naturally, devoted to the rescue work done by the
3. D. C. during the Nazi period... He reveals how several
million dollars have been parachuted by the J. D. C. into
the Warsaw Ghetto... He also tells the dramatic story of
how the J. D. C. sent $60,000 by prachute into Nazi-occu-
pied Belgium... He brings out in detail the "behind the
scene" story of how J. D. C. aid was smuggled into Hun-
gary, Slovakia and other Nazi-held countries from Switzer-
land... He relates hitherto unknown facts of how the
J. D. C. helped 14,000 Jews in Shanghai to reach Palestine
and how tens of thousands of Polish Jews were reached
with relief by the J. D. C. in Russia during the war years
via Teheran...Mr. Agar has no compliments for England
when he traces the role of West European governments
in helping to save Jews from Nazi hands... But he has
much praise for France, Belgium, Holland, Norway, Fin-
land, Denmark and Sweden... And he describes the noble
stand taken by King Christian of Nazi-occupied Denmark
who, in standing up for the Jews in his rcountry, warned
the Germans that he would move from his palace 'into the
Jewish ghetto if the Nazi authorities insisted on establish-
ing a ghetto for the Danish Jews... He also warned that
he would be proud to wear the Star of David, if Jews in
Denmark were ordered by the Nazis to wear it... Most
dramatic and revealing is the story of a Capuchin monk
in France, Father Marie-Benoit, who set up in the cellar
of his monastery a factory for forged documents which
made Jews into "Aryans" and produced for them pass-
ports, identificaton cards and even food-ration cards.
The Gestapo knew all about this priest, and killed most of
his co-workers, but never caught the monk himself who
was revered in France as "Father of the Jews"... Mr.
Agar, in "The Saving Remnant," thus pays tribute not only
to the humanitarian work done by American Jewry
through the J.D. C,, but also to non-Jews who stood by
the Jewish people--many of them at the risk of their lives
--during the darkest years in,modern Jewish history.

format and content has been
greatly improved and our Ad-

have a good Anglo-Jewish paper

they recommended the change

to accomplish the change.
No one can say whether or
not there Wi!l be headlines in

half a million men, women and
children still look to us for vital
aid which they can receive from

sent a most urgent emergency
for all of us. A major aim, /gain,
