- TIONIST DESCRIBES ROTS I PALESTINE Maurice Samuel Decries In-| ability of American Jews to Understand Situation. The inability of the American Jew to understand sympathetically the re- cent riots in Palestine was termed “stupid” last night by Maurice Samuel, Zionist and author, speaking at the Jewish Community Center before the opening meeting of a 10-day campaign on behalf of movement in Palestin Mr. Samuel based his talk on his! throughout | experiences in Palestine the uprising. A large crowd turned out to hear the address and several hundred new members were registered in the roll call now being taken to reveal the full strength of American Jews behind the Palestine appeal. Enlarging the theme, “What Hap- pened in Palestine,” Mr. Samuel blamed the bloodshed and ill will of the| August, riots on propaganda rather than | to an uprising of the Arab people against the Jewish homeland move- ment. Experience Depressin, “Nothing has been more depressin: the speaker continued, “than my perience with the Jews of America since my return. I have been stunned by the extraordinary inability of the Jewish people to understand what took place. The Jew is one of the best at minding other people’s business and one of the most stupid in the managemenc of his own affairs. Louis E. Spiegler, president of the District Zionist Organization and chair- man of the roll call, told the assemblage | that the prospects were excellent for the registration of the bulk of Washing- ton_Jews duting the 10-day campaign. | “What happened was the assault of a | few fanatical mobs out for loot.” Mr. Samuel continued, “and the Arab peo- ple mainly kept out. The leaders real- ized there was no opposition, and there is none by the Arabs to the Jew- ish_homeland.” He cited accounts from Arab news- papers printed previous to the Tiots, which alleged ~Jewish depredations which never took place.

Had there been in Palestine police in | the same proportion as to the popula- | tion of the average American city, or | the British officials “been as vs as we had ex-| g:gled them be,” there would have | n no lengthy death roll, he said. He cited the fact that there were 750,000 Arabs and 160,000 Jews in the country and that the Jews were Vvic- torious in the struggles as part proof | that the entire Arab nation did nov rise against the Jews. .

Describing advertising as “the great- est university of all” and a medium through which more people are reached than any other, Louis Flader, commis- sioner of the American Photo-Engrav- ers’ Association, declared that if printed advertising were stopped all factories would have to close, in an address at a luncheon of the Advertising Club of Washington in the Press Club Building yesterday. Enlarging upon the thought of the educational value of advertising along the lines desired by manufacturers to aid in the distribution of their products, and why he termed advertising a uni- versity, Mr. Flader said: “It is the greatest university of all| because it reaches the greatest number of people. It reaches every man, woman and child who can see and read.” The speaker had said previously in his address that today the man with a patent or article does not wait for the people to come to his doorstep seeking the article, but that he “goes out to acquaint them with it.” Adveriising, Mr, Flader continued, in effect aids principally in solving the | main problem of the manufacturers or merchants, namely, that of distribution. It stimulates desire, then consumption, and therefore distribution, he said. ‘Touching upon radio and other forms of advertising, the speaker expressed the view that no form of advertising products will ever supplant the visual| methods of placing information regard- ing the products before the public.

By the Assoclated Press. Wire tapping would be made illegal and information or evidence obtained b- this method would be made inad- missible in civil and criminal trials under a bill Representative Schafer, Re- publican, of Wisconsin, expects to in- troduce tomorrow. $ Schafer said he would call for prompt action on the measure, in the hope of restoring “the fundamental liberties guaranteed to cur people under the Constitution,” which, he said, were “taken away by a decision of the Su- preme Court.” ‘The measure would provide a penalty of from 1 to 10 years’ imprisonment.
