11 THE JEWISH CHRONICLE Zangwill Returns to Zionist Movement Y. M. H. A. to Aid in Army Welfare Work Prospect of Fall of Palestine to Allies Decides Move— Was Territorialist Zionist. Israel Zangwill, the distinguished English author, has announced his re- turn to the Zionist movement, from which he has been alienated since 1905. At a meeting in London, held several days ago, Mr. Zangwill said that it was almost certain that, at the end of the war, Palestine would fall into the hands of the Allied Powers. This historic event, he said, will give the Zionists the opportunity to realize their ideal, whia is the establishment of a publicly secured, legally recog- nized home for the Jewish people in the Holy Land. Mr. Zangwill explained that lie left the Zionist movement in 1905 because he had become convinced that it would be impossible to create a Jew- ish State in Palestine under Turkish rule. At that time he felt it his duty to seek some other land to which Jews, dwelling in lands of persecution and oppression, could flee and es- tablish themselves on an autonomous basis. Ile had, therefore, organized the Jewish Territorial Movement, which had given 'serious consideration to Great Britain's proffer of Uganda, in Africa, to the Jews, and had in- vestigated the possibilities of Cyren- aica, Australia, Mexico, Central America and other possible territor- ies for a Jewish "haven," but had not been able to find a suitable location. Now, however, when Palestine was about to become free, and there was strong possibility that it would be given to the Jews, said Mr. Zangwill, he wants to do his utmost for Zionism and give it his full support. . Days Before Schedule Local Organization, Without Funds, Starts Campaign for Members. The local chapter of Y. M. H. A. is making plans to aid the work of the National Council of Y. M. H. A. in serving the Jewish soldiers who may be called to the colors. The National Council has formulated detailed plans for the welfare at mobilization camps, training camps, and places where troops may gather in large numbers. The work of the Y. M. H. A. will parallel the work of the Y. M. C. A. welfare program. During the recent Mexican border trouble the National Council of Y. M. H. A. maintained headquarters for Jewish boys at Douglas, Arizona.

This is the Tunnel in which body of ore was reached. soldiers and Jewish citizens of the South, and achieved a creditable repu- tation in army circles. Every Y. M. H. A. organization in the country has been appealed to to assist the General Council in its army welfare work. Detroit Y. M. H. A. is ready and willing to do its share, but the local organization is hampered because of lack of funds. No attempt will be made to solicit financial aid for this necessary work at this time on account of a possible conflict with the campaign for the war relief fund. "We need members," said Jacob Nathan, president. "We need mem- bers both for their moral and finan- cial support. Numbers will accomplish what a few cannot do. We have, therefore, inaugurated a membership campaign, which will terminate with a smoker on May 10. Every Jewish citizen of Detroit is urged to be on the membership roll of the Y. M. H. A. The fee is $5—a small sum for the average man—and is the source of income for our work. The time is too short for an elaborate campaign. A number of workers are out but can reach only a small percentage of the Jewish population. We must de- pend in great measure on the volun- tary assistance of Jews in Detroit. Every male reader of the Chronicle should sit right down and write us a check for $5, and mail it with his name and address to A. Cooper, 531 Dime Bank Building; Arthur E. Fixel, Hammond Building, or to Jacob Nathan, care of Detroit Saturday Night." CINCINNATI TO HAVE $500,000 Y. M. H. A. CINCINNATI.—A mass meeting was held recently to further the movement on foot to obtain a fund of $500,000 for the erection of a proper Y. M. H. A. building. A site has already been se- lected at the northwest corner of Cen- tral avenue and Clinton street. It is claimed that an unknown donor outside the city has promised to give one-half of this amount, provided the other $250,- 000 can be raised. To secure this money there has been appointed to work with the efficiency committee of the Y. M. H. A. an auxiliary committee. JEWISH HISTORICAL SOCIETY HOLDS TWENTY-FIFTH ANNUAL MEETING.
