...Jewish retailers 30,000 strong closed their delicatessen, kosher butcher shops and pharmacies in Jewish sections of Metropolitan New York for 60 minutes last week. Some of them hung out signs: PEOPLE OF AMERICA, STOP HITLER NOW, AND SAVE CIVILIZATION! Bigger retail establishments like R. H. Macy & Co. made formal denials of rumors that they would fire their Aryan employes, replace them with refugee Jews...
Most remarkable last week was the escape from death, at least temporarily, of Professor Heinrich (born Chaim) Neumann, greatest ear & throat specialist in Europe. This merry Orthodox Jew, who keeps a kosher home and prays each morning in phylacteries and sacred shawl, is the doctor & friend of England's George VI and Duke of Windsor, Spain's Alphonso, Rumania's Carol, Greece's George, Austria's late Emperor Charles. Two years ago Germany's Hitler, fearing cancer of the throat, asked Dr. Neumann to operate. The specialist refused, on the ground that...

S. housewives all year-meat prices were at a six-year peak (TIME, Oct. 4 & 18). By mid-January the U. S.

By last week wholesale cattle prices were...
Excellently printed in rotogravure, Click is likely to give its more roughneck competitors a run for their dimes. An unrestrained display of carnage in the first issue shows a hypnotized man with his lips pierced with pins, kosher beef being slaughtered, a bloody nose-bobbing operation. Most of the rest of the magazine is chiefly suitable for decorating the walls of a college fraternity house-layouts "unmasking" the white slave trade, why Toms peep and at what, finally a section devoted to colored illustrations of off-color jokes and "French art studies...
...kosher meat products sold in New York City are union-made-except W. & I. Blumenthal's "Ukor" brand. Among methods used by the Butchers' Union to bring pressure on the company was picketing of retailers handling Ukor products. Among the retailers picketed was an East Side delicatessen shop owned by one Isaac Goldfinger. Mr. Goldfinger's staff consisted solely of Mr. Goldfinger. and after pickets with English and Yiddish placards had cut his trade by an estimated $100 per week he hied himself to court, won an injunction. The union promptly took the case...
