CANTOR ROSENBLATT TO RE-
PEAT CONCERT TRIUMPHS
IN DETROIT JULY 15.
The Detroit Jewish community and
the general musical public will have
opportunity to judge for itself of the
merits of Josef Rosenblatt, the cele-
brated . Jewish Cantor, when he ap-
pears at the Detroit Arena, Sunday
evening, July 15. Rosenblatt recently
appeared at the New York Hippo-
drome before an audience estimated
at six thousand people and received
many laudatory notices from the New
York critics. Other appearances in
Philadelphia, Washington and Pitts-
burg have been similar successes. The
Washington Star said: "When Rosen-
Watt sings he seems a marvel. His
voice is a clear, beautiful tenor of the
robust type, and he is master of a
falsetto the like of which has prob-
ably never been heard in Washington.
From the deeper notes of the bari-
tone to the finer threads of the color-
atura soprano it ranges with trills and
temelos and graceful curves of mu-
sical expressio:1,"
• Cantor Rosenblatt is a great student.
When he first came to this country,
about ifive years ago, he did not know
English. He was able to speak Rus-
sian, German and French fluently. As
soon • as he arrived in New York he
began the study of . the English lan-
guage, with the result that English
is spoken almost entirely in his home.
Rev. Rosenblatt is Chief Chazan of
the Congregation Ohab-Zdek of Har-
lem, New York.

Closing Session of Zionist Conventions
Stormy
Mizrachi and Poals Zion Secede. Sons of Zion Walk Out But
Return—Delegates Chosen to Jewish Congress.
Zion, radicals, were the other seces-
sionists.
The contest that led to this action
was based on resolutions to provide
an administrative committee. Mr.
Barondess, representing the Sons of
Zion, wanted representation for his
order, but Louis Lipsky, the secretary,
ruled that the Sons of Zion were not
a separate entity and Rabbi Stephen
S. Wise, president of the provisional
committee, sustained him.
Filially Mr. Lipsky moved that the
proposition be laid on the table. 'then
the other secessions. Rabbi
Wise said:
"If these secessionists do not re-
turn, the orders which they represent
will not sustain them. We have rt.-
fused to tie the hands of the Pro-
visional Committee or to say that cer-
tain groups shall have a certain place
in Zionism. Zionism must conic first
and parties afterward."
Justice Brandeis was elected Hon-
orary President of the Provisional Ex-
ecutive Committee. Other officers
chosen were: Chairman, Rabbi \Arise;
vice-chairman, Dr. Henry Friedenwahl
of Baltimore; treasurer, R. Lewin-Ep-
stein of New York; secretary, Jacob
De Haas of New York; members at
large, Judge Julian Mack of Chicago,
Miss Henrietta Szold of New York
and Mrs. Joseph Fels of Philadelphia.
The Federation of American Zion-
ists, at its closing session at Baltimore,
transacted much of its important
business, including the following:
Passed .with enthusiasm a resolu-
tion expressing the complete loyalty
of the Zionists to America in the war:
Elected members of the executive
comMittee after lively contests.
The report of the Palestine Bureau,
which outlined the practical work be-
ing accomplished there, was adopted.
Provision was made for contributing
$5,000 during the coining year to the
prosecution of this work.
Delegates were chosen to represent
federation at the American Jew-
ish Congress.
A new plan of management for
Yiddische Volk, the organ of the
federation, was agreed upon.
Report of Palestine Bureau.
The report of the Palestine Bureau,
which was read by Bernard A. Rosen-
blatt, said:
"Let us not delude ourselves into
the belief that a charter can give us
Palestine. Yes, it may give us paper
rights to Palestine, which may be of
some use in the peaceful penetration
of the Land of Israel, but Palestine
will be ours only at the time when
we constitute the majority in the land.
We shall have a Jewish Palestine only
when 51 per cent of the population
of Palestine is composed of Jews,
who speak Hebrew as their mother
tongue, who have imbibed the Hebrew
spirit, and who feel themselves con-
stituent elements of the Jewish nation.
"As soon as peace is established we
shall call for volunteers in the Jewish
industrial army for pioneer work in
Palestine. Our Jewish soldiers in in-
dustry will convert swords into plow-
shares, and, with the labor of their
hands will fasten the hold of our 'ico-
nic upon the soil of our ancestors.
The European catastrophe has created
the very condition whereby such an
army can be readily organized. There
will be hundreds of thousands of our
soldier brethren who will return from
the wars to the smoldering ruins of
their villages, and to homes bereft of
parents, wives and children. Thou-
sands of these will welcome an asso-
ciation by which their lives will be
made fruitful in a peaceful struggle of
our people for a future home in Pales-
tine."
