\ Hans glohke
Oj course, the West German government is right
in asserting that the trial staged in East Berlin
against Hans Globke, an important Bonn official, is
propaganda with clear anti-Western qyertones. But
is Bonn right about Globke himself? ~ * * *
Hans Globke is connected now with the West German regime in a high capacity. He exercises great influence upon government policy. Therefore the accusations leveled against him must be studied seri-pUrSly and with a sense of responsibility towards the historical developments which have taken place in the last thirty years.
I can understand why Globke refused to respond to the summons to appear in court when the trial against him began this week iti East Berlin. Even if innocent, it is doubtful whether he could prove his case in d Communist "court." But the case against . Globke is not only the subject of anti-West propaganda. For if the facts are so, then Bonn itself cannot afford to dismiss the East Berlin trial as a Communist show without putting Globke on trial — in West Germany.
First, it has never been contested that Hans Globke is the author of the infamous racial laws of the Third Reich, He has provided legal respectability to Hitler's anti-Jewish laws. He does not even clain that h^ had been coerced into supporting Hitler.
When T was in Germany at the beginning of this year, Iraised'the question with sonie Bonn officials. The best defense on behalf or Ghbke mis that, because he Jjad odd per at ed with the Nazis in ^editing dr-writing anti-Jewish laws, he succeeded iti saving the so-called "Mischlinge", German ttationals of mixed Jewish and Gentile parentage^ One of these MISCHLINGE told me he owes his life to Dr. Globke because he had wrung Irorn Hitler t^
If this is the only defense, available to Globke, I do not believe that he has any leg to stand on. Globke did not ask the 600,000 Gerhian Jews at that iinid whetherihey were ready to sacrifice themselves since it might; help the "half-Aryans". Morally, Globke certainty' has no case if this is all he: can offer to justify his collaboration with the Nazis and his service in the Hitler government.
Also,! cankot go along with a statement attributed to Df. Konrad Adenauer, the Chancellor: that he cati't dismiss Qlobke because he is a very talented public servant. If West Germany must depend-upon some Nazis, if it can't do without them, then it plays, right into the hands of its Communist enemies.
Along the road to hard Wpn respectamljtty and its acceptance in the West; the West German govern-tnent cannot ignore the case against- Skte Secretary Hans Globke. Its own serious; judicial inquiry of Dr. Gtobke's wartime activities and his role from 1933 to 1939 is tnore than overdue.
munity suffused with tradi tion and continuity and with an ever deepening sense of partnership with Israel reborn. Together with you we pray and hope that this community will not be subject to the erosive impact of a misunderstanding of the nature of Jewish experience and destiny and snrvival in a free society. Never before in Jewish history bad the burden of spiritual survival in the Diaspora devolved almost exclusively on communities living in freedom. In particular we wish to salute the educational framework of the Toronto Jewish community and first and foremost the Day School Movement whkh serves as an example and an inspiration to Jewish communities throughout the American continent. ~
"Twenty years after the European holocaust and fifteen years after the rise of Israel, Israel and the Jewish communities _in the free lands are still engaged in the battle for survival, physical and spiritual. But as we clasp our hands in
partnership we recognize in intuitive faith that we are the privileged sons and daughters of the generation of redemption of a new epoch of Jewish history only now beginnig to unfold Day in and day out let us never
for a moment fail to answer the challenge of this epoch.
Farewell was bade the Ambassador by Julius Hay-man on behalf of the United Zionist Council; Mr. Lou Lockhin presented an award from the Jewish National Fund.

STATEMENT
New Jewish Medical To Be Built In New
School York
NEW YORK. (CJN) — Mount Sinai Hospital announced that it will establish a $30,000,000 medical school on its present site. The first Class will be admitted in September. 1968.
A charter authorizing the hospital to set up the school was granted by the State Board of Regents. A team isent by the Liaison Conunit-tee on Medical Education of the Association of American Medical Colleges and the Council OQ Medical Education and Hospitals of thei American Medical Association had examined the plan and concluded "we can expect the development of a medical school with excellent academic standards".
Gustave L. Levy, president of the hospital, said the medical school would have a four-year program accom-
modating an eventual en- hff 10 per cent, helping to
rollment of 400 students.
The school would graduate about 100 physicians a year, Mr. Levy said. Existing medical schools in the state graduate about 950 physicians a year. Thus the new school would increase the state's output of physicians
nieet the need for more medical graduates that was pointed out in recent city and state smreys. Mount Sinai Medical School will be second of its kind under Jewish auspices in New York City. The first is the Albert Einstein Medical
School of Yeshiva University.
The plan was developed by Mount Sinai's joint committee on medical school planning._ Milton Steinbach, a trustee, is chairman, Dr. Hans Popper, director of pathology; is the ranking physician on the committee
and acting dean. Dr. Martin R. Steinberg, hospital director, was active in an e.xof-ficio capacity.
The hospital was founded in 1852. It has an operating budget of 520,000,000 a year and an education and research budget of $4,000,000 a year.

ROIE OF IK JEWSIiPIIESS nSCIKSED
LONDON, (JCNS) Nearly a thousand people have already visited the exhibition of the Anglo-Jewish press which' opened at the Ben Uri Art Gallery, here on Monday.
At a symposium on the relationship between the Anglo-Jewish Press and the community, within the framework of the exhibition, several journalists declared that Anglo-Jewry got a better press than it really deserved.
Mr. Joel Gang, of the Jewish Chronicle said that the Jewish community here had a niuch better press than it merited. The community and its leaders displayed a negative attitude to their own press. The exhibition showed that a large number of AnglofJewish newspapers and periodicals had fallen by the wayside over the years because of the indifference and contempt on the part of the community.
Mr, J. Sohntag, who coii-curred with this view, said that one of the duties of the Jewish piress should also be to raise the intellectual level of the community and stimulate ioterest ,jn cultare and litera^fe ■ .', ;
MOSCOW (JCNS) — Three Leningrad men with Jewish names have been executed for "misappropriating" $200. 000 worth of pencils, fountain pens, rulers and other office equipment, the newspaper Soviet Russia reported on Saiturday.
The fate of the men was disclosed in a brief story, with only the barest details. The newspaper said the piroperty of those executed was ordered confiscated and that the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Rus-sion Federation, largest of the Soviet Unions' fifteen republics, had rejected their
plea for mercy.
Executed were I. Zinger, Y. Kazakevitch and S. Ko-riiptkin. No first or middle names were given.
The newspaper had said earlier that those sentenced to death were either factory managers of salesmen involved in the wholesale swindling of surplus goods over a fiycryear period. Sentences of up to fifteen years were imposed on dozens of other defendants after a four-month trial; with 300 witnesses.
The group made so much money, the newspaper said, that the key participants
were able to build their own dachas in the country, buy new cars and take expensive holidays.
POLAND FIXES ANTI-SEilllTES
WARSAW, (JCNS) Acting on instructions from Warsaw a Polish attorney has instituted proceedings against a group: of Poles for making insulting antisemitic reniarks. If found guilty they are liable to fines equivalent to $150 each or to three month's imprisonment or both.
While a group of Jews was enjoying an evening meal at the "Toka" Cafe in Dzierzonow, in Western Poland, they were interrupted by Poles sitting at a neighbouring table who „ made angry remarks about "the dirty Jews".
One of the Poles called out "Couldh't Hitler find you and make, another piece of soap or a lampshade from your skins".
Among the Jews in the cafe was the .head of the local Jewish co-operative aiid several members of a Jewish c6-operaitive from Wroclaw. : A policeman arrested the offenders and took them to the police station where they were held, for several hours but later released to stand trial. One Of the Poles expressed regret at his "bad behaviour", biit the others refused to withdraw their anti-Jewish insults and will therefore stand triaL
TEL AVIV (JCNS). -"Israel will soon become independent in the production of certain components in rockets and missiles, especially these elements needed for soUd fuel", Meir Marder, head of the Armarnent Research Authority at the Defence Ministry, told 'Haaretz' on Friday. Mr. Marder is the man responsible for the construction and launching of "Shavit H". the first Israeli meteprological rocket sent up in July 1961.
- Since that launching, Mr. Marder said, Israel had pro- -gressed considerably in this tield. Achievements were the more striking bearing in mind the small number of Israeli scientists engaged. There was the possibility of constructing a multiphased rocket — Egypt has so far launched 'only dne^pha^ed . rockets —^'^as a further example of Israeli high technical potentiality. .,:"Unlike Egypt which had engaged German scientists
— Israel's rocket industry was based completely on the work pf Israeli scientists", Mr. Marder added.
Asked whether there were any immediate danger from the Egyptian rockets, Mr. Marder said: "Without min^ imising the progress made by Cairo, as long as Egypt does not receive substantial know-how from any Great Power, Israel's scientists are capable of meeting the challenge."
