Report on Race Superiority Is Suppressed in Moscow BY the Associated Press. MOSCOW, December 26.—A politi- cal-scientific controversy between pro- ponents and opponents of the theory that some races are superior to others —which orthodox Marxist doctrine rejects—attracted wide attention in Moscow today. It centered in the all-union congress of psychiatrists and followed suppres- sion of a report to the congress deal- ing with this theory. It was charged that G. N. Kaminsky, commissar of public health, had in- fluenced congress officials to destroy the report to prevent circulation of an attack on Prof, Solomon G. Levit, who was recently expelled from the Communist party and denounced as a “false scientist” by the official press because he defended the doctrine of | racial superiority. Levit, head of the famous Medico- Genetic Institute, ard well known in American scientific circles, recently stirred up a controversy in scientific circles by his acceptance of what or- thodox Communists call the “Pascist theory of race superiority.” He was attacked because his views on bioiogi- cal determination among races, the role of heriditary traits and biological explahations for crime were contrary to Marxist doctrine, Prof. M. B. Krol in a contribution to the suppressed report denounced Levit and called for a “merciless fight against such false science.” One thou- sand copies of the report were seized at the printer’s and destroyed. Scientists meeting in the psychise trists' congress warned against ace ceptance and admiration for “such Fascist racial nonsense.” Pravda, ore gan of the Communist party, severely criticized Kaminsky for defending Levit. Accidents Kill 100,000 Yearly, * Statistics show that each year some 100,000 persons are killed and 9,500,000 injured in accidents in America. tributions from 1,000,000 Jews in the United States for the rebuilding of Palestine were outlined by Mrs. Sam- uel Schulsinger, national board mem- ber of the Senior Hadassah, at to- day’s meeting of the Junior Hadassan organization, in session at the May- flower Hotel. The convention opened Friday and will conclude tonight with election of new officers. Delegates last night heard Rabbi Edward L. Israel of Bal- timors accuse Russian communism of failing to respect minorities and wita “gacrificing individual characteristics.” Mrs. Scheulsinger urged all Zionists in America to “pay the shekel,” which | s a tax to support the organization’s | activities throughout the world. 1 Will Launch Campaign. “This year the Zionist organization, under the auspices of the United States Central Shekel Board, is launching an extensive shekel cam- paign with a goal of enlisting 1,000,- 000 shekel payers,” Mrs. Schulsinger said. “This campaign must become a mobilization of Jewish public opin- jon for Zionist action. In this, the | Zionist organization will demonstrate | to the world its inflexible determina- tion to carry forward with the work of ‘building Palestine in the face of all obstacles and difficulties.” | Mrs. Schulsinger said only 3 per | cent of American Jewry is now pay- | ing the shekel, terming it the poorest | ghowing of any major country in the | world. She announced that this year, for the first time, the Senior and Junior Hadassahs will vote on a slate of dele- | gates from their own ranks, without affiliation with any other Zionist group, to represent them at the World | Zionist Congress to be held next Au- gust in Switzerland. | $80,800 Raised in Year. | ‘The annual report of the treasurer | of Junior Hadassah, made today, showed that $80,800 was raised dur- ing the fiscal year ended July 1, 1936, for Palestine work and for adminis- tration and education in the United States. Of this amount $63,000 was sent to Palestine for the support of three Hadassah educational institu- | tions there. The budget. adopted yesterday, pro- | vided $75500 for the Palestinian projects and the Jewish National Pund, Zionist land purchasing agency | in Palestine. It represents a 26 per cent increase over last vear's budget. | Rabbi Israel. in his address, con- | trasted the Soviet form of govern- | ITHE WEATHER ‘ District of Columbia—Partly cloudy | and colder, lowest temperature tonight | about 38 degrees: tomorrow cloudy, | probably followed by rain in afternoon | D.G.S.
