THE WISCONSIN JEWISH CHRONICLE 7 March 26, 1937 defacement of property. Crews of radio patrols will be instructed to give this message special attention." Seder FecCst and Preparations for Passover Police Ordered to Protect Synagogues After Temple Is Defaced With Swastikas Pierre VanPaassen Views The Current World Scene New Biography Claims Wagner Admitted He Was Jew (Continued from Pasre 1) II'' i New York (JTA) Police precincts throughout the city got special orders to protect synagogues from defacement after unknown vandals had painted bright orange-colored swastikas on the outer walls of Temple Rodeph Sholom. Rabbi Louis I. Newman blamed "Nazi representatives" and saw a relationship between the desecration and Secretary of State Hull's protest to Germany on the Nazi press barrage. He said the temple had been defaced six times in the last two years.

The order which went out over the police teletype said: "To commanding officers of all precincts and districts: Instruct the forces under vour command to pay particular attention to all synagogues to prevent Prague (WNS) Richard Wagner, world-famous German composer of operas and the musical favorite of Hitler, described himself as a Jew in his own letters, it is revealed in a new biography just published here. Although many students of Wagner's life have claimed that he was of Jewish ancestry, the composer always denied it, insisting that he was a full-blooded Aryan. The new biography, however, contains letters in which he admits his Jewish origin. Wagnerian music is always played at all Nazi functions and Hitler has been known to go out of his way to hear a Wagner concert. l'-- if ll'li Ills -1 EM mm i1 I 3 I'M 4 i The Only Equipment That Actually Blocks Knitted Garments Scientifically Never again do you need to worry over blocking YOUR knitted dress, for BLOC-KNIT is an efficient, prompt service which blocks your dress so that it will fit and stay trim.

That may be so, but what business had those thousands of well-dressed and fashionable young Parisian gentlemen of the Croix de Feu, with their clubs and razorblades, over there in a hundred per cent proletarian suburb? The mairie of Clichy, like every other city or town hall in the seventy-odd Socialist and Communist municipalities in the so-called "red belt" of Paris, is equipped with a siren which screams alarm if ever it becomes clear that there is a mobilization of Fascist legions in the neighborhood. Well Organized Demonstration This time, as on so many previous occasions, the Fascists pulled off their provocation with all the trimmings of a military occupation: motor brigades rode into the square of Clichy, flying columns took possession of the road intersections in the vicinity, hundreds of flashlights were signalling in the dark fields around the town.

The workers sounded the tocsin of alarm. Colonel de la Rocque has so often announced the proximity of Heure (zero hour) when, he says, no less than six hundred members of parliament are to be arrested and, without further ceremony, drowned in the Seine "beginning with the Jewish brood around Blum" that the citizens of Clichy took no chances. It is not unlikely at all that some Fascist agents provocateur slipped into the workers' ranks and started shooting that is, if the first shot really came from that direction. But that is beside the point. Whose interest is it to disrupt the coalition of liberals and Leftists known as the Popular Front in France? What is more calculated to dismay the moderate liberals in that coalition than an outbreak of violence just at the moment when France is, in the admission of all, starting up the road of recovery, and when Paris is straining every ounce of energy to get the world's fair into shape? Charges Fascist Provocation Whose interest was it to provoke a grave interior crisis just when Leon Blum, having established a measure of social peace and instilled a spirit of national democratic union at home, intended to pay some more attention to the depredations of the big-time gangsters in Spain?

The Clichy incident is a Fascist provocation to divert the French government's attention from Spain. It is an attempt to break up the Popular Front by frightening the moderate liberals.

Hitler and Mussolini, La Rocque and Franco, the chiefs of the Fascist international, have made their first attack against the main bulwark of democracy in Western Europe.

Again and again it is reiterated in our semi-Fascist press that Hitler has succeeded in transforming a sordidly humiliated people into a first-class power, a reich that is making its voice heard in the world and which is even imposing its will upon the other states. Hitler's Germany is being held up as a model of order and tranquillity.

No (sit-down strikes in Naziland, no social unrest in Adolf's paradise. And what so it is argued if this wondrous achievement involved a little hardship for a handful of Jews and liberals? Wasn't it worth it? Did the Fuehrer not lead Germany from the depths to the heights These are the questions posed before the American public by the reich's open and clandestine propagandists. And then it is pointed out that if Hitler achieved what he did achieve it was because he first solved the Jewish question; that is to say, put the Jew in his place by removing him from the position of superiority or alleged superiority which he once occupied in the cultural and commercial life of Germany. Argument Impresses Many Millions not only in Poland and Roumania, or Holland and Belgium, but here in America hear this sort of argument and are impressed with it. It sticks with them.

And in this way the scapegoat, the victim, is clearly indicated to the uncritical mind of the petty American middle class for any eventual and quite possible national crisis or depression. Hitler, who poses as the savior of Europe from "Judeo-Bolshevism," is in reality the temporary savior of the German munitions trusts, who without him would have been bankrupt by now. His anti-Jewish ideology is a fake. Real are the inestimable services he rendered to the merchants of death. He is their flunkey, their tool, their instrument to prolong the flow of dividends.

He is also their hope for an expanded market in the Ukraine and other Soviet republics. The anti-Jewish fanaticism is a stall and a mask. His real job is to plunge Eu Always THE FINEST QUALITY Fiorello La Guardia's picturesque remarks on the subject of Adolf Hitler before a convention of the American Jewish Congress women have produced quite a rumpus. But in all the commentaries I have read it seems to me that the mayor's essential point was altogether overlooked. La Guardia was not merely wise-cracking or throwing pithy epithets around.

He sounded a grave warning by pointing his finger directly at the reichsfuehrer. The mayor did not merely call Hitler "a brown-shirted fanatic," but "a brown-shirted fanatic who is menacing the peace of the world." Hitler the war-monger, Hitler the flunkey of Krupp and Reinmetal and the Farben trust, who throttling the spirit of freedom in the great German people in order that it may become a willing instrument in his hands for the calamity immeasurable, the greatest bloodbath of history, which he plans that is the Hitler whom New York's mayor threw into the limelight. With this La Guardia rendered a service to civilization and to the cause of peace and democracy.
