that it will be of interest to many to
note the names of the present incum-
bents. Jewish politicians, in their
habit to exaggerate or underestimate,
at u recent election' put up an argu-
ment that Jews, in proportion to their
numbers in this country, did not have
the numerical representation they are
entitled to in the House of Represen-
tatives. Which sentiment is not only
ridiculous but disgusting—that an
American citizen should speak politi-
cally i n terms of racial numerical
strength. But these politicians, self-
appointed in their presentations for
their own people an they are, are also
ignorant of the Congress membership.
One of them made the statement that
there were only three Jews in Con-
' Kress, while there are II in reality .
So, for the information of ignorant
politicians, here are thepresent 11
members of the House of Representa-
tives: M. C. Ansorge, Meyer London,
Nathan I). Perlman, Albert B. (toss_
dale, and Isaac Siegel of New York
. City; Lester D. Volk of Brooklyn,
N. Y.; Isaac Bachrach of Atlantic
City, N. J.; Julius Kahn of San Fran-
. cisco, Cal.; Milton Kraus of Peru,
i Ind.; B. L. Rosenbloom of Wheeling,
W. Va.; Adolph J. Sabath of Chicago.
All are Republicans with the exception
of Representative Sabath who is a
Democrat and Representative London
who is a Socialist.

the Trans-Jardanian ruler, to attempt to arrive at an understanding between
the l'alestnie Arabs and Jews, it is learned. The policy of the Emir is

Indignation runs high in Jewish circles in Jerusalem over the dismissal
of 17 Jewish policemen from the force because they failed to report for duty
at Semach on Yom Kippur. News of the dismissal coming from Tiberias
caused wide speculation and some biting comment about the inability of
Jewish government employes to observe the holiest day of the year, in the
Jewish Homeland under a Jewish High Commissioner.

Masses of Jewish and Armenian refugees from the sphere of operations
between the Greeks and Turks, and from Constantinople, are concentrating
on the southern frontier of Bulgaria. The condition of the refugees gives
rise to great apprehension. The Bulgarian government has prohibited the
refugees from crossing the frontier into Bulgaria. A movement has been
started in the country to rush relief supplies to their aid.

A report from Hanover is that a new book from the pen of Arthur
Dinter, entitled The Sin Against the Spirit," has been confiscated. Dinter
is the author of the anti-Jewish pamphlet, "The Sin Against the Blood,"
which caused great commotion in Germany a short while ago. On account
of an unfavorable review in the Berliner Tageblatt, Dinter started pro-
ceedings against that newspaper, which were, however, dismissed. Proceed-
ings have been commenced against the publisher of the book.
The first sniger on the list of Sym-

The uprising of the Ukrainians in Eastern Galicia against the Polish
military authorities has become widespread, according to reports to Vienna
papers. It is stated that the military has been forced to withdraw and the
Polish civil population is fleeing to Western Galicia. The Polish command
at Lemberg has asked for reinforcements of cavalry in the disturbed region,
having reported that the revolution is rapidly spreading throughout all of
Eastern Galicia. For the present disturbances are said to be confined to
the regino between Tornopol and Ilusiatyn.
The correspondence which Lucien Wolfe, representing the Joint Foreign
Committee, addressed to the London representatives of the Soviet govern-
ment protesting against the reported suppression of Jewish teaching in
Russia, was endorsed at the meeting of the London Board of Jewish Depu-
ties. Regarding the activities of the evangelists, which are becoming in-
creasingly widespread, the board decided not to commence an anti-con-
version activity at present. • . •
For six months this great institution has been preparing
for this epochal sale. A million dollar's worth of high-
grade furniture is included. And the special low prices
will move $200,000 worth of quality home-furnishings
and more into Detroit homes this week!

Representations are being made to the Palestine government to permit
the immigration to Palestine of 3,000 Jewish workers from Central and
Eastern Europe, it is learned authoritatively from a Jewish labor leader
of Palestine. The representations are based on the contention that there
are at preselit'15,000 Jewish workers, with little or no unemployment, in
estine Jews, through its representa
country. The National Council of Pal
ives now in Europe, is behind this demand, to which an early reply is ex-
nested from the government.

A recent edition of the Egyptian Gazette of Alexandria contains an
article on the Nablus Congress by A. Weinberg of Jerusalem, a Jew who
has made himself notorious by his opposition to the Jewish movement in
Palestine. lie describes himself sit an extreme anti-Zionist and contends
that "although the boycott is an offense against the welfare of Palestine,
still when we look thoroughly into the whole affair we see clearly that it
is done under provocation. The delegates of the fifth Palestine Arab Con-
gress at Nablus were provoked to such an extent that they were forced to
adopt the measure of a boycott which relieves them from blame."

The Committee of Jewish Delegations in Paris is commencing the forma-
tion of an international Jewish I.eague of Nations' Union, built along the
lines of the societies advocating the league idea in the various countries.
The council of the International Union is now meeting at Budapest and
it is hoped that by the time the plenary meeting of the union is held at
Vienna the Jewish organizations will be in a position to send representa-
tives. The Committee of Jewish Delegations, created during the peace con-
ference, is composed of delegates of countries which sent deputations to
Paris to press the claims of the Jewish minorities ni the various states.

they paid 22 per cent of the cost themselves, the rest coming from the
Joint Distribution Committee. The bath house is a combination Turkish
bath, three showers. several tubs and a ritual pool. The 1,200 Jews (not
including fume 6,000 refugees in the barracks) are all that are left of a

The govetnment has commenced to proceed against Arab leaders advo-
cating a boycott of the Palestine census. Nine Arab notables of Nablus
(Schechem) have been arrested and sentenced to a month's imprisonment
each for carrying on propaganda against registration and census. A num-
ber of village chiefs have been removed from the posts of "Mukhtars." Five
Arab schoolmasters in Jerusalem have been dismissed for joining in the
anti-census agitation. Appeals for the release of the prisoners at Nablus
have been lodged following the attempt to storm the prison, a report says.
In consequence of the government's firm stand on the census question, the
Arab leathers are understood to have informed the High Commissioner that
they will issue a circular advising their followers to participate in the census.
America's leading manufacturers have volunteered
their full co-operation. Our stocks are replete with
