HOUSE OF ISRAEL.
First Victim Of " Hitler's Godlessness." JEWRY FAITH IN BRITAIN. British Official Wireless. (Reed, noon.) RUGBY, Sept. 25. Dr. Hertz, the Chief Rabbi in Britain, in a Jewish New Year message, declares:—"A spirit of ardent faith and unconquerable hope animates the souls of men and women in this country in their stand against the heathen rage of Nazi rulers. Britain is fighting for her very existence, and on her triumphant victory d'ver totalitarian barbarism depends the whole cause of human freedom."
Dr. Hertz said the house of Israel was the first victim of Hitler's "callous Godlessness," and declared that the Fuehrer's aim was the disappearance of the Jew from Europe. When the idols of new paganism had passed v, British Jewry would have a double duty: "To assist our crushed and outlawed brethren in their struggle for rehabilitation, and to restore Jewish religious life wheiever it has been ruined by the malice of man and the disintegration of war."
