a bushel and is now selling for $2.52, while beef

sold five years ago at $11.42 per 100 lbs. compared with $17.77
today. The retailer of these products has advanced his selling
prices to meet increased costs.

The Telephone Company, on the other hand, has been unable to follow this
Wan. Costs have risen rapidly but rate. are regulated by law and hey, not

Miss Dora Berres, Superintendent of the Federation of Jewish Charities
has been signally honored by being elected president of the Survey Club, of
Los Angeles, a professional social service organization, non-sectarian in
character. Miss Berres is the only Jewess boasting a memberhip in this
organization. It is a matter of general pride to the local Jewish people,
that the dignity vested in the highest office of the organization, with all A
the responsibility which this entails should be accorded to a Jewess.

The Austrian Chancellor, addressing a mass meeting on the terrible con-
ditions prevailing in the country, was subject to touch interruption from ' 4
German nationalists. Replying to a remark, "the Jew rules the world," Dr.
Renner replied, "If you believe Clemenceau and Lloyd George are Jews you
are much mistaken. If you consider that today England and America dom-
inate the whole world, and if you know what pions Christians the leaders in
those countries arc, you will be unable to say that the Jews rule the world."

Twenty years ago the Jewish farmer was a curiosity. Statistics then
gave a Jewish farming population of 216, owning 12,029 acres, with a real ii
estate value of $243,000. Today there arc 12,000 Jewish farming families (a
population of 60,000) and "there is not a State in the Union, a portion of
whose soil is not tilled by Jewish hands." One million acres of land, pos-
sessing a value of at least $60,000,000, represents the Jewish farm holdings

of 1920.

The newspaper "Echo de Park" states that Lord Reading, who recently
refused appointment as Ambassador to the United States, will probably lie
appointed British Ambassador to France within a short time. The editor,
in commenting on the statement, says that it indicates that the embassy in
Paris is regarded as more important than the one in Washington.

Proclamations of a highly anti-Semitic character have been distributed
at \Varsaw University. After an attack on the missions of !dr. Morgenthau
and Sir Stuart Samuel, all the students were invited to oust the Jews "who
had captured the University," and they were urged to begin the work of
"Polonization" as quickly as possible.

A fresh blacklist of l'oles who recently sold their houses to Jests has
been published and posted up in Warsaw. The renewed appearance of the
list in the streets created a feeling of deep disappointment among the JeWS.
The Jewish deputies made representations on the subject to the government.
The list gave rise to an uproar in one street where Poles attacked a Jew for
criticising it. a
