Jells Youtl> Group Here It
Must “Meet Challenge of
False Teachings.”
Warning to Jewish youth that they
must meet the challenge of "the false
teachings concerning Judaism which
derive from Germany’* and must build
up a self-sufficient Jewish culture was
sounded by Prof. Mordecai M. Kaplan,
dean of the Teachers’ Institute of the
Jewish Theological Seminary, New
York, in an address before the Young
People’s League of the United Syna
gogue yesterday at the Willard Hotel.
"It is high time,” said Dean Kap
lan. "that the Jewish youth who are
associated with the synagogue evince
some signs of maturity as Jews and
assume responsibility for making
Jewish life creative.
"Jewish youth must launch a pro
gram of activities which will inform
the mind, stir the heart and impel
the will.”
He urged that they read Jewish
books, that they stimulate writing on
Jewish themes, that they make use
of Jewish artists and architects, foster
Jewish music and choral singing.
Prof. Kaplan also warned the 600
delegates to the convention against
accepting the interpretation of Ameri
can nationalism as though it were of
the German brand.
Group seminars on current social
and educational problems were held
yesterday afternoon. At one of these
sessions, led by Asher Block of Wilkes
Barre, Pa., a resolution was adopted
denouncing communism and fascism
and declaring democracy is the only
form of government consonant with
the teachings of religion.
Another group, led by Alexander J.
Bogorod, adopted a resolution ex
pressing the opinion that "peace can
be assured only when the world learns
the secret of co-operation as a means
of satisfying human needs and mak
ing for human growth.”
The session was to close today with

lion, will go unpunished before the
bar of justice in Bergen County.”
Judge to Speed Case.
Justice Bodine promised to use all
his power, Breslin said, to speed solu
tion of the case.
Discussing the conference, Breslin
continued, ‘‘AU the crimes committed
here in the past few years have been
committed by New York gunmen with
criminal records."
Regarded as an important “break”
In the case was a girl’s description of
the automobile in which "four or five”
men, believed to be the killers, rode to
' the scene of the crime. The prose
cutor said this tallied with "confiden
tial Information received from other
sources.”
Labor Disputes Held Involved.
Labor and union disputes, in Bres
lin's opinion, hold the secret of why
Redwood, business agent for a New
York subway workers’ union, was shot
to death.
Momentarily in the background as
the conference convened was the
bulky figure of Samuel R. RosofT, mil
lionaire subway builder and man of
many enterprises, sought by Breslin
for questioning. Secluded in New
York, RosofT stood firm on his refusal
to come to New Jersey for examina
tion.
•Sandhogs-’ of Redwood's union
went on strike on a RosolT project the
day before their leader was slain and
Breslin said he had an affidavit that
RosofT had threatened Redwood with
death if any strikes were called.
Arrested Saturday as a material
witness, RosofT was released without
bail by a New York judge for a hear
ing tomorrow under a reciprocal wit
ness law between New York and New
Jersey.
Breslin declared the outcome of the
conference here would determine what
action he would take next regarding
the millionaire subway builder. As
sistant Prosecutor Sidney Sher said
RosofT was not regarded as a "main
figure” in the investigation.
Police meanwhile felt they had un
covered two tangible leads to the gun
men in the case. The serial numbers
on one of the guns used in the killing
were deciphered, and descriptions of
two of the believed killers were ob
tained.
The .38 caliber gun, wiped clean or
fingerprints, was found near Red
wood's home, its serial number field
off. The weapon was turned over to a
crime detection bureau at Elizabeth
where by scientific methods the num
bers were raised and identified. De
tectives began checking to ascertain
who purchased it.
Peter J. Siccardi, chief of Bergen
County police, said he expected to re
ceive a report today on the gun’s
ownership from the Hartford, Conn.,
factory which made it.
“The gun is the only concrete evi
dence we have to link the murder
with Redwood’s death,” Siccardi said.
“So far, everything else has been cir
cumstantial."
Three tavern employes gave the de
scriptions of two men who walked into
their bar room a short time before the
killing and inquired the way to the
street where Redwood lived.
“Valentine” Revealed.
A "valentine” warned Redwood of
the death that was to overtake him,
BresLn revealed last night.
The "valentine” was mailed from
New York February 13, or almost a
week before a carload of gunmen shot
Redwood to death, Breslin said. The
“valentine.” Breslin explained, was an
undeveloped camera negative. Red

had It developed, and the picture
showed a flower-banked grave.
Studying the picture carefully, Bres
lin said there was a tombstone on the
grave, but the heaps of flowers almost
covered It, obscuring whatever inscrip
tion it may have borne. The clue,
Breslln said, would be "followed up for
what it is worth.” He declined to dis
cuss the importance he attached to it,
or to comment on the handwriting on
the "valentine” envelope.
Breslin was taking precautions to
protect the handful of witnesses on
whose evidence ho depends to "break"
the case.
Characterizing Max Friedman as
“important” in the Investigation, he
said he had no intention of releas
ing the 31-year-old friend and as
sociate of Rosoff who was brought
here Saturday from New York.
Girl’s Identity Secret.
The identity of the 12-year-old
girl who saw the carload of gunmen
approach Redwood's home was care
fully guarded. Breslin disclosed the
child had identified the type of car
used, -but he refused to say where
or when she saw it.
It is Breslin's theory the car prob
ably followed Redwood home from
New York Friday.
The prosecutor hinted at olher un
disclosed witnesses in this eo inecuon.
II Duce Decrees Death for
Ethiopians Linked to Kill
ing Attempt.
El the Associated Press
ADDIS ABABA, February 22.—All
Ethiopians connected with the at
tempted assassination of Viceroy Ro
dolfo Graziani will be shot by an
Italian firing squad on direct orders
from Premier Mussolini, colonial offi
cers announced today.
A second series of instructions from
II Duce decreed death for all native
chieftains continuing opposition to the
Italian government, they declared.
Reprisals for the wounding of Vice
roy Graziani and several others during
a celebration Friday will be “extensive
and summary," the Fascist command
ers said.
Dignitaries Hurt by Grenade*.
The viceroy, the Abuna Cyril, Coptic
bishop of Ethiopia, and Aviation Gen.
Aurelio Llotta were wounded when
Ethiopians tossed hand grenades into
the midst of the official party at a
festival honoring the birth of King
Emperor Vittorio Emanuele's grand
son.
"The punishment will go beyond
ordinary reprisals.” the officers said,
•'to obtain a demonstration the new
conqueror will not stand for opposi
tion.”
Dispatch riders from the lake region
south of Addis Ababa arrived in the
capital with news that all Ethiopian
chieftains captured in a pitched bat
tle Saturday had been killed.
The Ethiopian leader, Gabra Ma
riam, was killed during the fighting,

those after the fall of the Ethiopian
capital, have already "tom into” cer

hand in the money bag,” the viceroy’s
assistants asserted.
Viceroy Graziani was believed more
seriously wounded than official com
muniques at first admitted, since a
late report on his condition said he
was “considerably improved.”
Meanwhile, Graziani rushed 30,000
soldiers to his capital today to quell
any possible uprising growing out of
the attempt to assassinate him and
his official suite. *
Under express orders from Premier
Mussolini the city was placed on a
war-time basis while Italian cara
binieri and Blackshirts rounded up
2,000 native suspects and witnesses
and handed them over to the military
authorities.
II Duce ordered the suspects tried
immediately by courts-martial.
Graziani Reported Recovering.
Graziani was reported recovering
from the slight injuries he received
from the shattered fragments of hand
gcenades tossed into the midst of his
party Friday.
Liotta's leg was amputated, an offi
cial communique stated, as a result of
his wounds.
One of the bursting grenades
knocked him unconscious to the floor
of the rostrum, where he was stand
ing at the viceroy's side.

MONEY DAMAGE SLIGHT
IN MIDWEST FLOODS
Midwest flood victims, regardless of
their other losses, apparently took
good care of their money.
Treasury officials said today no
water-soaked or damaged currency
has been received from the affected
areas for redemption. Receipts usual
ly are heavy after floods or other
major disasters.
Officials said money held in flooded !
banks may have been discolored, but j
that it is being redeemed through the
Federal Reserve System.
