BENJ. SHirrMAN
No King for Palestine.
Discussing the form of government
which will probably be established in
Palestine. Mr. Ben Avi said:
"It w ill be strictly a democratic
form of government. The Jews will
not accept a king other than a direct
descendant of David. and the last
known descendant of that historic
Jew. was Abravanel, who lived more
than -MO years ago.
"The constitution will be drawn
along the lines of that of the United
States. although the president will not
have as notch power. The greater
p.m of the power will be vested in
he parliament.
"The Christians :iced not fear for
their interests. There will be no rule
of the priests, but everything will be
arranged to make the relations,
muninercial. financial and diplomatic,
entirely faiendly and co-operative to
ter Jew ish, Moslem and Christian
faith.

which was to break out simultan-

The riots, however, were suppressed
by the Bolsheviki Red Guard, the
first report of the Red Guard being
used for such a purpose. Seven of
the rioters were killed. and twenty
of them were wounded. The Mos-
cow soviet then appointed a commis-
sion to educate the Russian masses
against continuing its pogroms. The

A TRUCK DESIGNED AND BUILT FOR
STRENGTH AND DURABILITY—
to meet the economic and service demands of business in war times.
The WOLVERINE is a war-time truck. It is the answer to the
crying need of economy and efficiency in commercial freightage.
The l'/;-ton WOLVERINE is a truck with brute strength and rugged
endurance built into every sinew of its construction.
The reliable
Continental motor supplies maximum power at minimum cost and
equips it for the most strenuous and exacting service.
Efficiency and economy is what your business must have today, and
this is the basis upon which the WOLVERINE is made.

progressive politically as the Finns
were can think in thi, modern (lay of
setting up a monarchy is in itself a
disheartening fact, but it is still sadder
for us. if it means a setting back of
the ;lock as far as the rights of the
Jew., are concerned.
There seems to be no peace for the
Jews in Russia. Now that the Bol-
sheviki have at least become more
friendly to them, a new element has
arisen to plague them. The Bol-
sheviki started with an indifference
to Jewish suffering at the hands of
the Russian mobs, and at last has
come to pass resolutions and to
appoint a commission to educate
the Russian masses against continu-
ation of such atrocites. Now. how-
ever. the counter-revolutionists are
engineering riots against the Jews.
In Vitebsk they started a movement
to exclude the Jews front all govern-
ment offices and from all government
institutions. To accomplish this re-
sult they carefully planned a riot.
