THE DETROIT JEWISH CHRONICLE

CHICAGO OPERA CO.
REMAINS TRUE TO
CAMPANINI TRADITION

With orchestra, chorus, ballet and
scenic equipment brought directly to
Detroit from their sensational New
York success, the Chicago Opera
company is to come to Orchestra
Hall for four performances, March
22., 23 and 24. Despite the death of
Campanini, beloved conductor of the
organization, it is said, much of his
spirit and enthusiasm has been given
to Gino Marinuzzi and Teofilo de An-
gelis who will share the responsi-
bilities of leadership.
Puccini's "Tosca" is to be given
Monday evening, March 22; Doni-
zetti's Lucia di Lammermoor" Tues-
day evening; Verdi's "The Masked
Ball" Wednesday afternoon, and his
"Rigoletto" the same evening. The
operas will be given in Italian
throughout.
The casts will include nearly all
the artists who have shared the for-
tunes and destinies of the Chicago
Opera company during the past sev-
eral seasons, and who have become
familiar to every music lover in the
country. The title role of "Tosca"
is to be taken by Mary Garden, that
of "Lucia" by Galli-Curci, "Amelia"
in "The Masked Ball" is played by
Rosa Raisa; Titta Ruffo takes the
name part in "Rigoletto."
It was Campanini's dream to run
long seasons and to take the great-

est and best in music to those who
were gifted with appreciation no mat-
ter where they were to be found. For
that reason he planned to keep his
organization on the road as long a
time as it played at home. His plan
has been followed through. The
same fastidious selections of stars
and casts has been made for road
as for home productions, every unit
and department is kept working with
the same high degree of effective-
ness. The Chicago Opera company
is as well known through the South
and Middle west as in Chicago it-
self, and has everywhere been re-
ceived with a cordiality accorded few
such organizations.

POGROM PARTICIPANTS
BEING TRIED IN PRIBRAM

Prague.—In l'ribram, in 1918, a

pogrom occurred in which many Jew-
ish homes and shops were looted,

among them the businesses of the
liquor-dealer, Kafka, and of the jew-
elry merchant Hermann. This
pogrom was later investigated by the
authorities and charges were brought
against 120 persons. It appeared that
eight persons who had already been
convicted of crimes were the leaders
of the pogroms, and the rest were
local citizens, among them a number
of women of the best and most cul-
tured circle in the town. In the pos-
session of the latter, many of the
stolen articles were found.

MILLION DOLLAR FUND
TO RESCUE FAMISHING
CHILDREN IN HUNGARY

Committee, Non-Sec-
tarian, Endeavors to Feed 100,-
000 Children Daily.

Hungarian

New York—The American Relief
Committee for Hungarian Sufferers
has launched a campaign to raise
$1,000,000 to feed the starving chil-
dren of Hungary.
Many thousands of children are
without food and this committee, to.
operating with Herbert Hoover. is
endeavoring to feed 100,000 children
daily.
It will be of special interest to our
readers to know that one-half of the
children now being fed through this
fund are Jewish children.
The following excerpts of a report
by Arnold Somlyo will show the con-
ditions affecting the Jewish people of
Hungary at the present tinie.
On my arrival in Budapest around
the 10th of December, I found ISO
feeding stations in operation, supply-
ing 103 schools and 17 hospitals with
food. During my stay in Budapest
the average number of children fed
daily were 61,000. Capt. Richardson
and assistant, Lieut. Johnson, have
accomplished a great deal when you
realize that all this was accomplished
within seven weeks.
Realizing that there were some
newspaper reports and also consider-
able talk that under prevailing condi-
tions in Hungary, the Jews might be
discriminated against, I proposed to
Capt. Richardson that Dr. Fraenkel,
president of the .Orthodox Jewish
Congregation in Budapest, should be
placed on the Executive Committee.
Capt. Richardson readily consented
to it, saying that the American Re-
lief Administration would not, under
any circumstances, tolerate any dis-
crimination on race or religion. Sub-
sequently, we have invited Dr.
Fraenkel for a conference, explaining
the situation to him, and after he had
visited with me a number of schools
and Jewish Orphan Asylums where
Jewish children are already being
provided with food through our or-
ganization, he was so touched and
delighted with the success of the
work that he immediately consented
to become a member of the Execu-
tive Committee.
At the time there was only one
Jewish institution that did not care
to avail itself of the food supplied,
for religious reasons, but I have sug-
gested that instead of using the lard
furnished by the American Relief Ad-
ministration, they may use vegetable
fat, and Dr. Fraenkel thought that
this would overcome the objection
and this institution can be included
in the list of the schools and Orphan
Asylums supplied with milk, rice,
cocoa and other foodstuffs used.
Mr. Fraenkel handed me two let-
ters, one to Mr. Engletnan and one
to Rabbi Dr. Klein, which I have
turned over to Dr. Horn for delivery.
In these letters he urges his co -re -
ligionists on this side to do every-
thing possible in their power to as-
sist the work of our committee, be-
cause its blessings are beyond mea-
sure or comprehension.

concluded; but that they are still be-

point to a favorable result.
