PALESTINE GROWTH

Progress Made in Home

There are about 110,000,000 people in the United States. One
hundred and seven millions are non-Jew s. Of this number some 50,-
000,000 number anmog their acquaintances Jews that they say "are
different" and "not like other Jews." You know the Jews I have in
mind: "if all Jews were like you there would be no prejudice." Well,

letter to • Jew, written by the Rev. J. T. Gibson, editor
I quote a
of the Presbyterian Banner of Pittsburgh, Pa. He says:

"In regard to the statement that you cannot understand
why the Jewish people are blamed and persecuted for the treat-
ment Jesus Christ received, and for his crucifixion, I think that,
while the history of the event may not warrant hatred, it shows
conclusively that while our Lord was crucified by Roman sol-
diers he was crucified at the instigation of the Jews and that
the Roman governor would not have signed the order for his
execution had he not been compelled to do no through the
pressure brought to bear upon him by the Jewish people.
There is certainly no question in regard to these historic facts,
and we hope to see the day when the Jewish people will not only
recognize Jesus Christ as the perfect man, but as their Messiah
for whom the faithful looked in ages past."

NEW YORK.—Palestine is gradu-
ally becoming the Jewish homeland
in every sense of the word, and that
principally through the funds con-
tributed by American Jews by means
of the Keren Ilayesod, declared

especially enthusiastic of the work
of the Chalutzim, who are abandon-
ing professional and academic ca-
reers in the lands of Eastern Europe
and flocking to Palestine in order to
be of service in the upbuilding of the
Jewish Homeland.
Ile dwelt on the great interest
manifested by the Jews of Palestine
in the passage of the Lodge resolu-
tion by the United States Senate, an
event which evoked considerable re-
joicing when the news arrived in
Palestine.

Work of Keren H•yesod.
"It is well for American Jews to
realize," said Judge Rosenblatt, "how
basic in all that takes place in Pales-
tine are the funds which they con-
tribute through the Koren Ilayesod.
It is these funds which maintain all
these activities without which the de-
velopment of Palestine would have to

Now, the foregoing letter is • real Presbyterian document. The
Rev. Dr. Gibson is orthodox in his position and it would be as sensible
for me or for anyone else to endeavor to show him that he might be
mistaken as it would be to argue with him that Jesus was a man,
rather than • God. But at least he will be open to the suggestion
that the Roman governor was •• man that did not hold himself in very
much fear of the Jews and that he did pretty much as he liked; and
I doubt very much if he had not wanted to crucify Jesus whether
anything the Jews would have said would have influenced him in his
act. Then, too, by should the Jews be heed, even if they were
guilty of all that Dr. Gibson states, for surely the whole scheme of
salvation would have fallen to the ground without the death of Jesus.
But he could have been more emphatic in his statement, which says:

Gibson agrees to the fact that Jesus wa s
whether Dr.
Christian world seems to want to forget this. I wonder how Jesus,
the God and Savior of the Christians, feels when he views the acts of
his followers who are crucifying his brethren. Probably the average
Christian believes that Jesus has no feeling for his people. But, as I
said at the outset, an orthodox churchman is set in his views and it is
perfectly useless to attempt to change his opinion. And this is said

with the greatest respect.

Frank Tannenbaum seems to have broken loose again, though he
promised to reform. He joined the I. W. W. very early in life and was
one of its most ardent disciples. Naturally he was a radical of radicals
and for • time his pernicious activities landed him in prison. Later he
entered Columbia and promised himself that his radical days were over.
He was graduated not long ago and began writing for the Atlantic
Monthly. Many of the readers of this column will probably recall
Tannenbaum's interesting articles he had planned for • series of lec-
tures throughout the country. His representative in New York told
e

waned the Jew came in for attention and neurally in such a Ku Klux
Klan atmosphere the Jew's chances for fair consideration were slim.
In the end it is probable that all these conversations made an impre•

Hendrik Van Loon, the Dutch artist and writer, and incidentally

something unique in the annals of the Post. Last week Van Loon was
given a gold medal for having written the best book in existence for
the education of children. Over 1,000 librarians unanimously named
"The Story of Mankind" as "leading all the rest." When you get it
keep in mind that Van Loon not alone wrote but illustrated it, and the
illustrations are as unusual and as interesting as the written matter.

says:

"Whenever I read of 'missionary movements' I wonder why
China and Africa and India are preferred to fields so much
nearer home. Missionaries to Missiissippi—now there's a real
need! Educational missionaries to bring both white and colored
schools all to modern standards; medical missionaries to teach
hygiene and sanitation; agricultural missionaries to teach mod-
ern methods of farming; and evangelical missionaries, who,
neglecting the favorite Mississippi doctrine of 'hell fire and
damnation,' would preach the Golden Rule and the precious-

ness of little children."

No, the missionaries prefer to save the souls of the "foreign

Some Interesting Facts About What We Believe to be

The World's Greatest
FUR SALE

Opening Simultaneously in Our Stores in Detroit, Pittsburg and Philadelphia

A Million Dollars in Fine Furs

The eyes of retail fur merchants all over the country will
be upon this sale. We doubt it ever before in the history of
the fur business, since the days when old John Jacob Astor
laid the foundation of his vast fortune in fur trading, has there
been seen a million-dollar fur sale.
No wonder we call it the World's Greatest Sale of Furs.
When the Frank & Seder Affiliated Stores of Detroit, Pitts-
burgh and Philadelphia first laid the plans for this event, it
was decided to pool the resources of our stores into one gigantic

combination.
It was felt that as long as furs are standard the world
this vast buying-power to
over, we could safely concentrate
one focusing point, and buy to great advantage.
We estimated that we could distribute a million dollars in
furs. With this tremendous power behind us we went into

the fur markets.
As soon as it became rumored about New York that this
vast BUM was to be spent for furs, excited comment flew the
rounds of the fur manufacturers. Our New York offices were
besieged. Every prominent furrier had his representatives

there.
We started out by announcing that we wished to purchase
$200,000 of Hudson Seal Coats. Imagine such an order! We
looked at Hudson seals until our heads swam. Our experts
figured and studied and compared. It took us three weeks to
finally sift the finest values down to the point of placing our
cotracts.
But when they were finally signed, we had bought
n
,/, to 25 ,/, below
all our Hudson Seal Coats at savings of 15

_ • -

I am in receipt of a letter from • physician who assures me that •
certain hospital in Pittsburgh has refused a contribution of $30,000
because it was offered by • Jew. This is the most amazing action that
has ever been reported to the writer. I here known the heat to affect
men's minds so they have seen sea serpents, but this is the first time
in the history of civilization that the board of directors of a hospital
ever refused money, whether it was tendered by Jew, Christian, Infidel
or Turk. I am not mentioning the name of the hospital, for I feel sure
that an investigation will show that was not the real reason for the
refusal of the gift. If this comes to the attention of the officers of the
hospital in question they may have something to say on the subject.

This column is open to them.

When you see the values you will understand how it hap-
pens that Frank & Seder's can show you a first quality Hudson
Seal coat with skunk collar and cuffs for $250, that retails in
a regular way for $375.
Our next move was to announce that we would place orders
for $100,000 of Jay Mink Coats. The some thing happened.
Competition was keen for the business, and we got the gar-
ments we wanted at 15 , .i below the market schedule. Thus
we can offer you a Jay Mink Coat at $269.50, that would regu-
larly be $400.
We
In Muskrat Coats, we bought $50,000—saving

bought 500 Muskrat Coats in one style alone, a coat we can
sell for $96.67; the regular price of this coat would be $125,

By this time excitement was running high, and every menu-
factur,r was :driving to outdo his competitors, and secure these

huge orders.
We next bought $00,000 of genuine Alaska Seal Govern-
ment stamped coats. And so large was our easing that we
can offer our customers a beautiful real seal coat for $300;
ordinarily it would be $450.
Of Mole-skin Coats we placed orders for $55,000.

Of Eastern Mink, $60,000.
And so on until our tremendous investment was completed
and our task done.

In telling the story of our adventures in the fur markets,
we have only one idea in mind. We want you, the public, to
know what lies behind this wonderful event, which we call

the market.

come to a standstill. The work of
receiving and regulating immigra-
tion, of maintaining the system of
medical service and sanitation
through the Medical Unit, the work
of supporting the Hebrew school sys-
tem, the work of promoting agricul-
tural colonization; all these activities
depend on the Keren ilayesod."
As an evidence of the encouraging
growth of Palestinian Jewry he in-
stanced the fact that Tel-Aviv, which
is on the outskirts of Jaffa, has now
been incorporated as a municipality
and comprises the first 100 per cent
Jewish municipality in the world to-
day. It has further been authorized
by the government to float a bond
issue to an amount of £75,000 at 0.4
per cent interest for the purpose of
installing and improving a number of
public utilities.

Starts Monday, July 17th. There will be Three Days of Courtesy, for inspection of the furs, so that all who are interested

may come and examine the qualities and make advance selections if they wish.
