AMERICAN HEBRAISTS
HOLD THEIR SECOND
CONVENTION
New Vork.--The "Histadroth Ib-
rith," the American organization
of flebraists, held its second an-
nual Convention here last week. The
reports presented at the Convention
pointed to a considerable growth of
Hebrew speaking societies throughout
the country and the strengthening of
the organization itself.

against the propaganda of 'the "Vid-
dishists" in the Zionist movement and
urged that their efforts he counteract-
ed by means of creating a Hebrew
literature, and rearing a Hebrew
youth.
Considerable debate was evoked by
the introduction of a resolution that
Hebrew be the sole language in Pal-
estine. The extreme liebraists favor-
ed the resolution to the letter. But
the chairman. Mr. Reuben Brainin,
counselled a modification and the ma-
jority took his advice, passing a res-
olution that Hebrew should be the
leading langnage in Palestine.
It was decided to found a seminary
of Hebrew teachers; to obtain the
recognition of liebryw in the high
schools and the universities; to es-
tablish courses ill Hebrew by mail;
and to make the If istadruth the ma-
jority stockholder in the Hebrew pub-
lishing concern "Kailimah."
