"Victory in this war will not be a
victory of the Government, but a vic-
tory of the people, a victory of the
social forces. In view of the constant
opposition of government to society,
the coming victory will mean the vic-
tory of these same social forces. The
social forces of Russia have always
been opposed to reaction, and, by this
same fact, opposed to the main flag
of reaction—anti-Semitism."

It has come to pass—the day
long wished for in all its mo-
mentous and farthest-reaching
consequences to Israel and the
world. The British govern-
ment, true to a policy of two
hundred years of sympathy
with and friendship for the
Jew, leads the way in indicat-
ing to its allies and to the world
that the day has come for the
ft establishment in Palestine of a
national home for the Jewish
people and that it will use its
best endeavors to facilitate the
achievement of this object.

will test the soul of the Jew.
They who have shared the dream of their people must now
serve as they have never served before, and they who, up to
this time, have held aloof will find fullest opportunity for high
and devoted service. This is the prime duty of the hour. May
not we who have borne the burden of the day in expressing
our joy and gratitude call to mind the wisdom and statesman-
ship of our leaders, who, alike in England and America have
made possible the coming of the great day—Justice Brandeis,
loved and honored leader of Zionists in our own land, and Dr.
Chaim Weitzman or England, who has carried the infinitely
difficult and delicate negotiations with the British government
to the point of glorious triumph? The privilege it has been of
my associates and myself of the Provisional Committee and
allied Zionist organizations to hold up the hands of our leaders.
The greatest and heaviest of tasks yet lies before us. We sum-
mon every Jew in America to the post of service and of honor—

Sliosberg Knew.
I he views of the late M. Sliosberg
r e well worth recording.
After the war broke out he wrote a
riking letter to Professor Samuel
1 larger of the University of Chicago,
which he said:
"There is not a single category

of bind its lot to the lot of Russia
general and sec in a Russian vic-
iry the guarantee of a well-being for
ussia and in particular for the _Jews

"This attitude is dictated especially
y the realization that 7,000.000 Jews
o f Russia are so closely attached to
ussia in their moral and material M-
erest that it is quite impossible for
hem to think of their own welfare ex-

Boston — How Corporal Samuel
Finkle heroically gave his life at the
front to save a detachment of men
whom he was leading, is told in a
letter from his friend. Lieutenant N.
W. Edens to Nli55 Fannie Finkle of
Boston. The letter reads:
"Ile was leading an outpost into
position when the Roche sprung one
of their characteristic ambush traps,
and would have annihilated the en-
tire party had not Corporal Finkle,
although shut and lying on the
ground in front of them, emptied his
automatic pistol in their faces.
. "According to statements of all the
men concerned, and the mute testi-
mony of his empty pistol, your broth-
er unhesitatingly flung himself be-
tween the Roches and the men en-
trusted to him. Ile was approaching
the position through a narrow defile
which allowed only two abreast.
Finkle's Heroism.
$igaiLlavesShippiug
"At that point they were trapped.
Corporal Finkle, in the lead, evident-
ly saw the danger just an instant be-
fore they opened on him, for he yell-
ed to those following him to get back,
swinging his automatic into line at
the sante time. Then he went down,
got up. staggered forward and fell
facing the Hun, his pistol barking in
their faces until the end.
"Although one other died with him,
his action undoubtedly saved the lives
of several others. No one ever died
more bravely than your brother, and
the gold star in your service flag
should he au inspiration to the young-
er brother you spoke about in your
last letter.
"Sly the way. he had just received
a letter from his mother and one of
the men says he read it going down
the trench. As the 'loch,- dragged
him off with them I can't say for cer-
tain as to this.
"Ile has been recommended for the
D. S. C. which will be sent to his
father if it goes there."
