pro-Lionist orthodox, and Walter
Sobernheim, undersecretary for Jew-
ish affairs in the Foreign Office. It
is the irony of history that Germany,
which under Prussian leadership al-
ways opposed the recognition of
Judaism as a church, should be the
only state to give the Jews official
representation on this historic occa-
sion. The program of these gentle-
men is practically identical with that
of the American Jewish Congress.
Noticing appointments it is worth
while calling attention to the reported
appointment of Richard Witting as
president of the National Bank of
Germany. Witting is the brother—
not as the Associated Press had it,
the brother-in-law — of Maximilian
Harding. The maiden name of both
gentlemen was Witkowski. \Vitting

In the world's history baseball is
a new game; hence new to song and
story and uncelebrated in the fine
arts of painting, sculpture and music.
Now, as Ruskin has pointed out, peo-
ple generally do not see beauty, or
majesty except when it has been hrst
revealed to them in pictures or other
works of art. This is peculiarly true
of the people who call themselves
educated. No one who prides him-
self 011 being familiar with Greek and
Roman architecture and the classic
masters of 'minting would for a mo-
ment admit that there could be any
beauty in a modern sky-scraper. Yet
there can lie no doubt that when two
