Sabbath Alliance Not Linked to
Movies, Says William Rosenberg.

NEW YORK—The Jewish Sabbath
Alliance of America is not linked to
the movie industry, William Rosen-
berg, Executive Secretary, said recent-
ly in a statement replying to Dr. tVil-
bur F. Crafts, head of the Interna-
tional Reform Bureau, who criticized
the Jewish association in a Sunday
afternoon talk in the West Side Y.
M. C. A.
The work of this organization." he
said, "is one from a religious stand-
point. and no other. Last year, on
Jan. 16, the Jewish Sabbath Alliance
had a bill introduced in the legislature
which, if passed, would have given the
seventh-day observer the privilege, as
such to labor and do business on Sun-
day. This was not a special privilege
we asked for, but only an equal re-
ligious right guaranteed by the Con-
stitution."
Mr. Rosenberg said the sponsors of
the blue law agitation were respon-
sible for the failure of the bill to pass.
A similar measure, however, would be
introduced in the legislature soon to
convene.

"%vim is the Jew?" will be the sub-
je'ct of Rabbi Franklin's 'Sermon at
'temple Beth El Sunday morning.
Services begin at 11 o'clock. All are
cordially invited.

Sabbath services:

Sabbath Services will begin as usual
at 10:30, the Sermon to be preached
by Rabbi Franklin.

A New Class at Sabbath School:
Under the direction of Mr. Milford
Stern, a Question and Answer Class
dealing with Jewish subjects has been
instituted at Temple Beth El. This
class will be open to boys and girls
who have completed their preliminary
work in the Sabbath School. Former
pupils of the High School department
who have not returned to the Sabbath
School this year, are especially invited
to join this class which meets every
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock.

HICCOUGH REMEDY

Dr. Lichtenstein

Says He Will Give
Formula to Physicians.

NEW YORK—A remedy said le
have proven very efficacious in the
treatment of hiccoughs has been &—
covered by Dr. Perry M. Lichtenstein
of 658 East 156th street, Bronx. As-
cording to the Department of Health
the number of cases of hiccoughs re-
ported throughout the city in calls for
physicians shows that this complaint
has reached the stage of a general epi-
demic. Dr. Lichtenstein is attending
physician at theTombsprison, where
more than 150 of the inmates have
been affected by the hiccoughs and
all have fully recovered after treat-
ment by his remedy.

Dr. Lichtenstein said his formula
was not secret and may be had hen
but he believes the best results wits

be attained by applying the prescrip -
tion by the advice of a physician, to
whom he will furnish copies of his
prescription.
