concerns for the Jewish community. Most people of
all faiths will celebrate it with parties, but some see it
as a year when momentous events will occur, and
many of these scenarios involve the Jews and Eretz
Israel. Some millenial sects even think it is their duty to
help precipitate the coming of the End of Days by
violence.

As we look ahead both to the High Holy Days
and to the new millennium, let us pray that the Eternal
will enlighten all hearts and remind all the world’s
people that only G-d knows the calendar for the
destiny of the universe. It is enough for humanity to
know that we are to treat each other as we wish to
be treated. When all people follow that simple rule,
the millennium will truly have arrived—no matter what

It is certainly a pleasure to wish everyone a
Happy New Year. While our Jewish Community is
not large, it is far to infrequent that we are able to
actually be “one community.” By way ofthis greeting.
it is my opportunity to greet everyone and share the
New Year with each and every one ofyou.

Over the years, I have been fortunate to be the
beneficiary of many generous and kind acts. by so
many people throughout our Jewish community,
regardless oftheir respective “home." Whether as a

to run the committees that organize the social and cultural

THE ST. LOUIS

by Michael E. Adelstein

0 many readers, the words “St.

Louis” bring thoughts of the spec-

tacular Arch, Mark McGwire, Bud
Light, or the wonderful 200.

But to those of an older generation, the
words bring the painful memory of the ship
that carried German Jews trying to escape
the Holocaust in 1939.

Therein lies an ugly story that should not
be forgotten.

The U.S.Holocaust Museum is helping
to perpetuate the memory of the St. Louis
by providing a special exhibition about it,
publishing a catalog describing its ill-fated
voyage, obtaining documentation about
900 of its passengers, and searching for
information about roughly thirty people
about whom nothing is known.

The story began in November 1938,
when Kristallnacht—the Night of Broken
Glass—resulted in the looting of 7,000
Jewish businesses, the torching of hun—
dreds of synagogues, the killing of about
100 Jews, and the arresting of approxi-
mately 30,000 others who were sent to
concentration camps. No wonder that
afterwards most Jews attempted to escape
Germany.

One escape route led to Cuba. There—
fore, when the Hamburg—America Line
announced a special voyage to Havana in
April 1939, the 937 tickets were quickly
sold out. On May 13 the St. Louis set sail
with most ofthe Jews having purchased
landing permits for Cuba, where they
expected to remain until their United
States’ quota numbers were called.
However, as a result of corrupt Cuban
politics, the permits were invalidated.

Then the ship set sail for Miami but was
forced by the Coast Guard to stay outside
American waters while arrangements were
being made to have our government admit
the passengers to the United States or
persuade the Cuban authorities to accept
them. Our State Department took the

position that the matter was an internal Cuban
affair. Therefore, although our consul in
Havana tried informally to help, no formal
action was taken. Whether this decision
resulted from anti-Semitism in the State
Department at the time is debatable.

Certainly, anti-Semitism was rife in this
country. A New York Times editorial sounded
a voice in the wilderness: “We can only hope
some hearts will soften and some refuge will
be found. The cruise ofthe St.Louis cries to
high heaven of man’s inhumanity to man.”

But hearts did not soften. A month earlier, 1
Fortune Magazine had published a poll indi—
cating that 83% of Americans opposed loos— (
ening immigration restrictions. A year earlier a ,
Roper poll asked the question, “What kinds of 5
people do you object to?” The responses: j
Jews (35%), “noisy, cheap, boisterous and ‘
loud people” (27%), “uncultured, unrefined, 1
and dumb people” (14%).

In a later poll, 53% believed that Jews 5
were different from everyoneelse andthat a.
these differences should lead to restrictions at
business and social life. ]

No wonder that in this climate of opinion 3
President Roosevelt was reluctant to waive the
immigration laws by admitting the Jewish
refugees. Generally he was regarded as being
sympathetic to Jews. Although they consti-
tuted 3% of the population at most, about
15% of his top advisers were Jews. Some
people at the time referred to Roosevelt’s
New Deal as the Jew Deal and even believed
that he was Jewish.

Eleanor Roosevelt tried her best to per— 1
suade FDR to admit the refugees, but he I
would not consider it. He was too much of a ‘
politician to fight against the xenophobic, anti—

Semitism ofthe time. In addition, he was

concerned about the use of fifth columnists, 1
who had flooded Norway and Holland as ‘
“tourists” prior to the Gemran invasions of

those countries. That the Jewish refugees

could have been fifth columnists seems ridicu— '
lous to us today, but during wartime, people—

and even presidents— sometimes become

hysterical and irrational.

After sailing for weeks in the waters be—
tween Miami and Havana, some of the refu-
gees received word that they would be

LEISURE CLUB UPDATE

By Ruth Maser
There will be no Leisure Club meeting in September as we will all be busy with
the Holidays. Annette and I will miss you, and if you are in town, we will see
you at Ohavay Zion or at Temple Adath Israel. So, Hoc Shema to everyone,
and we will see you in October.

On Thursday, October 21 we will all get together at Portabella’s for the first
annual CKJF Leisure Club/Hadasah event. We will celebrate the 75th doll to be
delivered to the UK Children’s Hospital; we will be introduced to the brand
new Israel Chai bond; we will be told the story of the Hadassah/Israel Bond
connection; and we will eat some of Wayne Masterrnan’s delicious cooking. It
promises to be an affair to remember.

It was a long, hot summer. We started out at Guiseppi’s in June where we
enjoyed ourselves in a private room, and we all said fairwell to Kim Slaton.

In July, Annette and I took vacations. Unfortunately, Annette broke a leg
while on vacation in Boston, but she is almost better now. I went to Kutsners
with Sandy, Karen, Loren, Aaron, Tony and Ben. The cruise we had booked
was cancelled at the last minute, but we still had a great time. We even met
Carolyn Bayer’s sister from New York who was also at Kutsners. It’s funny
because the last time I went to Grossinger I met a good friend of Dale’s mom,
Elaine Brichta. I guess it is what we call Jewish Geography.

We ended the Leisure Club summer by meeting and eating at Fazoli’s. We
were supposed to go to the Ginkyo Tree at Ashland, but this turned out to be a
very hot summer, and Annette and I decided it would be better to be inside. In
September we are off for the holidays. That brings us to October and our
combined CKJF Leisure Club/Hadassah affair described above. In November

COMMUNITY

An Opportunity To Do a Mitzvah Awaits You!

0 paraphrase a well—known axiom, now is the time to come to the aid of
the UK Children’s Hospital Resource Center and Library! The library

can only be open when a volunteer is there. Though this is a project of
The Lexington Chapter of Hadassah, everyone in the community is invited tojoin
us to do this important work. If you can volunteer at least one afternoon a
month—Monday through Friday-for approximately 3 hours, we need you! (Sun—
days are also a possibility.) At this time it is imperative that we reach our goal of
keeping the library open each day.

Please call or e—mail me as soon as possible with your 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
choice of days that you can work Also, if you have a preference such as the 2nd
Tuesday of the month, please let me know. My goal is to have a calendar com—
pleted before Rosh Hashonah, in which people are assigned a speciﬁc day of the
month (i.e. the ﬁrst Monday). Please get the word out to friends and family
members (age 16 and older), as we need volunteers immediately. Orientation is
one-on-one, so there will be no orientation meetings.

We have many new books to catalog—along with videos and books on tape.
Web site information needs to be entered into the computer. There is the plea-
sure of taking a book cart to patient rooms and knowing that both the parent and
their child really appreciated your thoughtfulness. As the New Year approaches,
with its reminder to observe the Jewish tradition of g’rnilut hassadim, good
deeds, I look forward to hearing from you.

B’Shalom, Judy Baumann, Hadassah liaison with UK Children’s Hospital
