ITII Harold Bauer as soloist, the Detroit Symphony Or-
chestra, under Ossip Gabrilovvitsch, gave one of the most
interesting and thoroughly satisfying programs of the
season. To honor the memory of Mrs. Henry K. Jones, one of
the founders and an active member on the orchestral board, the
orchestra played "Andante Cantabile," by Tschaikowsky. Out
of respect to the dead, there was no applause following this
exquisitely rendered composition.
Mr. Bauer opened the concert with the Bach Concerto No. 1
in D Minor. Always a welcome visitor to our city, Mr. Bauer
played with great masculine power, beautiful symmetry and
loveliness of tone. To hear Bach played as Bauer does it is to
like it. The Tschaikowsky Overture, "Romeo and Juliet," fol-
lowed. It was given an extraordinarily brilliant performance
in which the character of the music was vividly projected.

LANSING.—A debate between th e
"Junior A" pupils of the Hebrew
Sunday School featured the annua l
"Purim" celebration held Sunday
night in the synagogue on South Cap -
itol avenue.
The question, "Resolved, Tha t
Queen Esther Was Justified in Deny -
ing Her Jewish Origin," was defended
by Jacob I'enfil and Bernard Graff ,
while the negative was upheld by
Harold Kurtz and Harold Kramer .
No decision was rendered.
A playlet entitled "A Purim Fan -
tasy" was well presented and re-
vealed some pretty original costumes,
especially noticeable being that of
Ruth Weintroub, who represented
Rosh Hashanah, and Harold Kurtz
and Anna Smith, representing the
Persian king and his Jewish queen,
respectively.
Among the other numbers on the
program was a vocal selection by
Celia Kamins, accompanied by Anna
Graff; an aesthetic dance by Edna
Sofferin; a recitation by Charlotte
Kurtz. Songs and dances by the kin-
dergarten class pleased greatly.
Distribution of "Shalach Monas'
to the children ended the program.
Merman E. Segelin, who conducts
the Sunday School, presided.

port of Bishop Balthazar, the liberal
divine who has been a staunch cham-
pion of Jewish rights, Bishop Bal-
thazar, it is said, applied for a visa

ernment is said to have objected to
his leaving the country the American
Consul withheld the vise.

Cons Resolutions.
Resolutions adopted by the con.

Three-Cornered Fight.
The last session was marked by a
three-cornered fight between the
orthodox group, the so-called cultural
group and the radicals, over the ques-
tion of including the jurisdiction over
the religious affairs among the pow-
ers granted to the National Council.
This was followed by a split over the
question of the sort of schools which
Jewish Lithuania is to have, the rab.
bis demanding orthodox schools, the
Zionists secular institutions and the
radicals schools where Yiddish should
be the language of instruction.
Freedom for each group to main.

with its own lights having been grant.
ed by the congress, the question of
jurisdiction of religious affairs was
considered as solved, when it was de-
cided to "give satisfaction to the re-
ligious needs." This, however, failed
to satisfy the radicals, who quite un-
expectedly withdrew from the ses-
sions. Places have been reserved in
the newly elected National Council
for the radicals if and when they re-
turn, it being felt that the orthodox
element over-reached itself in mak.
