A physician of Pittsburgh takes me to task for stating that the

I will quote these newspaper statements and 1 am sure that all the

The fact that some doctors oppose him on the ground of lack of pro-

him the right to practice because of the fact that he comes from

The Zeirei Zion organization, the

Chanukah at an entertainment on

Zeirei Zion entertainment will be fol-

sing a number of new Jewish songs.

Those who planned that "drinkless, foodless and smokeless" ban-
quet (1) to which were invited 600 Chicago Jews to launch the Jewish
War Relief campaign in that city, surely possessed some imagination.
Black crepe was the only decoration; tall funeral candles the only
ban-
illumination, and bare tables the only evidence of the expected
quet. It was rather ■ dramatic way to drive home the fact in a
thoroughly understandable way of the lack of food in Europe. It has
always appeared to me rather gratingly incongruous, this sitting at
ladened banquet tables, eating to our limit and occasionally beyond,
then, lolling back with expensive cigars in our moths, listen to the tales
of starving children. It didn't just set right, did it?

The Supreme Court of the United States has hero appealed to
finally to determine whether the Bible shall be read in the public
schools of this country. The case of the state of Washington has
been used upon which to base the appeal, that state having excluded
Scripture reading from the schools. 'there has been an interminable
over this subject. There is a principle involved that

threatens the separation of church and state. And they that are be.
hind the movement know that exactly as they want to control Sunday
observance with a big stick so do they want to, as far •s possible, place

They want to sectarianize the Constitution of the United States. They

behalf of his wife's relatives, who fled
from the Ukraine after having ex-
perienced pogroms and exile. He
saved them from deportation. Whilst
in Canada, he learned that there were
61 more immigrants ordered to be
deported. He at once realized that
the Canadian Jewish Immigrant Aid
Society, notwithstanding its devotion
to and work for the immigrants, was
not strong enough to wage the fight
single-handed. He therefore enlisted
immediately the co-operation of the
Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant
Aid Society of America.
In Ottawa Mr. Barondess received
the heartiest co-operation of Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur J. Freiman. He describes
them as the most remarkable Jewish
types he evre met in his life. They
are the incarnation of Jewish good-
Pen, nobil.y and devotion to the un-
fortunate of all peoples, irrespective
of race or creed. They personally
went to the Ukraine and brought
with them hundreds of Jewish or-
.phans, one of which they adopted
and is being brought up with their
own children. The others, in conse-
quence of the example net them by
the Freimans, were adopted by well-
!o-do families. The Freimans are
Idolized both by Jews and Gentiles.

much of the festival. The leading en-
tertainment of the body will be held

"A Chanukah Story" and "Chalut-
zita," are the two plays to be pre-
sented by four clubs, the Uplifters of
