GERMAN JEWRY
A SECOND APPEAL
(From "The Post's" Representative.) LONDON, April 26. In his Passover sermon at the Central Synagogue, the Chief Eabbi (Dr. Hertz) pleaded for support for the" second appeal now issued by the Central British Fund for German Jewry He said'ithe terrible plight of their German brethren was a moral challenge to the Jews of Great Britain. It was their sacred duty to save the refugees from hunger and want and enable them to start life anew in the Holy Land or other lands, across the seas. The reliei ous structure of the German-Jewish communities—the great fabric of Jewish learning and culture built up by a long succession of saints and scholarswas in danger of collapsing. That would be a crowning disaster. It would go a long way towards fulfilling the Nazi dream of. reducing German Jews to the level of gipsies. Large funds were required, and every Jew hero should-give tangible expression to his moral solidarity with the victims of tyranny who were subjected to degradation and persecution for the solo crime, of having Jewish blood in their veins.
