Associated Press Staff Writer
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 28. OP) The pro
posed mass exodus of Jews from Hit
ler's Germany recalled to Jewish
leaden today the 40-year pilgrimage
of their prophet Moaes who led his
bondage-worn band many weary
leagues to the promised land.
They hoped without benefit of
miracles for equal success,
The parallel to the Biblical saga Is
striking. Prominent Jews, here for an
International conference on Jewish
charities, emphasised the similarity
between the pending migration of
100,000 or mora young Jews and the
epic march made by the snow-beard'
ed sage who guided hts enslaved peo
ple to freedom from Pharoah's op
presslon.
Took Four Decades
It took Moses and his followers,
fed by heaven-showered manna, four
decades to reaoh the land of milk
and honey, after fleeing from Egypt.
If It takes philanthropic Jewa In
England and America who must pro.
vide their own manna that long to
arrange the removal of their breth
ren In Germany, their cause will be
lost, said Sir Herbert Samuel, former
British high commissioner to Pales
tine.
"Nazi decrees are breaking the spir
it and starving the bodies of the
young Jews," he declared. "Many of
the older Jews can live off their sav
ings for a time, but the young peo
ple, forbidden to work at their trades
and professions, have no recourse-
except death. They must be rehablll
tated, at once, In another land If they
are to be saved." 1
Pales'. i no Destination
Curiously, the destination of moat
of the refugees will be a section of
that land toward which their fore
fathers struggled In that ancient trek
of centuries ago Palestine.
No longer a land of "milk and,
honey, modern Palestine, rapidly be
coming Industrial teed, Is expected to
provide an outlet for the full range
of Jewish economic and cultural tal
ent. .
However, the main Jordan la yet to
be crossed the 10.000.000 fund, to
be raised by contributions In Amer
ica and England, with which to fin
ance the exodus.

By Byron Price
(Chief of Buresu, Tha Associated
Press, Washington)
Th, band-wagon progress of soldier
bonus legislation represents one ' of
tnose strange political turnings which
even the polltlclana themselves find
It difficult to explain.
ror yeara no cause seemed more
hopeless. Those who advocated the
bonus, and those who would benefit
directly by It, formed only a small
percentage of tha entire citizenship
of tha country. Tha movement faced
not only a atone wall of executive
opposition at Wsshlngton, but a dls
couraglng tangle of outside Infiu.
snces elsewhere.
Tha circumstances all were against
Ht. The country plainly waa tired not
only of tha World war and Its con.
sequences, but of all war and all
thlnga martial. Times were hard, tsx
payers were beset by increasing wor
ries, and much of the natural sym
pathy and public spirit of American
Ufa waa washed out in renewed clsss
antagonism and desperate individual
struggle for existence. i
Pour successive Presidents Vetoed
bonus bills In words of emphatic
protest. Organized business, alwaya a
formidable political foe, threw Its
full force against the proposed legis
lation, and many of tha ablest and
most respected men In national life
condemned It aa unwise and unjust,
In the face of all thla, victory
perches on the bannera of the bonus
bloc. Why? What has happened?
Patient Effort
Tha anawer la that In politics,
elsewhere, there Is no substitute for
that patient, persistent effort, which
takes no account of momentary de
feat, Is not distracted by offers of
compromise, but keeps Its eyes for
ever on one objective.
Those who set out a decsde and a
half ago for payment of the bonus
never have faltered for an Instant.
At every set-back they have taken
what they could get, and resolved to
try again for the longer haul when
opportunity should offer.
Demands for bonus payment
whether they came ftom few or many
became over the years almost an
inevitable part o! the dally life of
members of congress. They persisted
like the ticking of tha clock, or the
steady drip ol water against a stons.
To many they became not only
tlreaome, but a eource of worry. While
aoma of tha wisest. In their reflective
moments, felt that "the aoldter vote'
was a myth that It never had been
and never would be delivered bodily
at the polls they began to weaken
and to long for tha day when the
constant reiteration would cease.
Remarkably aoon after the payment
bill failed last session tha Impression
spread over Cspltol Hill that 1036
would see enactment. It waa plain
that tha rank and file of congres
sional opposition, and soma of Its
leaders, had had enough.
rolltlral Reasoning
It teatifled to the political sagacity
of the bonua advocatea that they con
centrated so much of their pressure
at the one point where actlpn could
ba taken In congress rather than
scattering It Ineffectively among the
voters generally.
What tha country at large may
think about the bonus remslns in
dispute. That opposition senstors and
representatives have been converted
need not mesn that those leglslstors
think there hss been a chsnga of
sentiment In their home precincts, or
that a majority there favors payment.
The politics! question Is a much
Bachelors and Spinsters
Should Foot Age Pension
Bill A rgues Sociologist
CHICAGO, Jan. 38. (AP) Pro
fessor Frank O. Dickinson, aoclolo
(1st, recommended today that taxes
to meet old aga pension costs be
levied on bachelors, spinsters snd
childless married couples.
Originator of a mathematical sys
tem of rating college teams. Prof.
Dickinson, of the University of Hit
nols,. advanced his theory in a talk
prepared for delivery before a lunch
eon meeting of tha Union League
club.
Sociology, he sstd, recognises that
no generation repays the cost of Its
rearing to the parents who labored,
worried and economized, but that
this debt is discharged as each gen
eration rears another group of children.
'Those adults who furnish no off
spring dodge, avoid and refuse psy-
ment for their own conception, birth
snd rearing," he said. "If they refuse
voluntarily to pay their debt to so
ciety the state should tax them to
pay the cost of old age ssslstance.
"Adults without proeeny should
bear thla burden! That Is social se
curity with social Justice."
Prof. Dickinson said ha had no
definite plan of taxation to propose.
but suggested that tha Federal Social
Security act ba changed to provide
for revenue through a tax on Incomes
of the unwed and childless.
Ha said ha favored th Income tax
for three reasons:
"1. It cannot be easily shifted back
upon other citizens.
"3. It is better than a poll tax be
cause It la related to tha ability to
pay.
"8. A parent with one offspring
could Da given aoma exemption!
parent with two children larger ex
emption, and a parent of mora than
two children complete exemption.

ehare of tha fruits of income but do

definite contractual provisions for

it fall upon adnlta without progeny."
narrower one than that. Many a con
gress member, up for re-election,
might have put It to himself In this
fsshlon.
"Suppose only a minority In my
district does favor the bonus: what
of it? The campaign will be fought
mainly on other issues. Might not
ths friendship of even a restricted
group of bonus advocates be suffi
cient in November to turn a delicate
balance between the parties, and
mssn the difference between defeat
and victory?"
For that tla the way practical poli
tics works.

"Jesus Christ Is the central figure
of the biblical record. He Is the foun
tain head of the gospel mystery in
rectifying and rehabilitating the spir

only sin emancipator. Ha is the
world's magnanimous philanthropic

"He said "I am come that they
