Constable Harry Schlussel of the
nineteenth want, well-known in many
Jewish circles here, has won for him-
self the friendship of a non-Jewish
famby for a humanitarian act which
brought him much praise.
Otto Sellers, a World War veteran,
and his family, a wife and three chil-
dren ranging in age from three
; months to three years, were ordered
evicted from their home on Oakland
avenue. Constable Schlussel was sent
to evict the family.
Ction arriving at the Sellers' resi-
. done, the constable found that desti-
tution prevented him from serving the
restitution writ which would have
made the family homeless. Instead
of putting them out, therefore, Mr.
Schlussel referred to the welfare de-
partment the plight of the Sellers
family, at the same time giving the
family money to tide them over until
aid could be secured.
Mrs. Sellers and one child were ill
at the time, and the house was with-
out fule or food when Mr. Schlussel
arrived. The assistance he offered
thus brought much praise to the con-
stable.
Mr. Schlussel is warden of Pisgah

apparently is inclined to side with the Jewish idea.
English critic

Before dismissing this college subject, which we intend to refer
to quite frequently, because it is the most serious question with which
of this country have to contend at the present time, we want
the Jews
to note from last week's Nation:

'President Emeritus Eliot, of Harvard, has a gift for saying
a great deal in a few words: 'I am opposed,' he says, 'to every
form of racial discrimination in the universities of our hetero-
geneous democracy. Any such discrimination would violate
very precious Harvard traditions.' The New York World says:
'Harvard with the prejudices of a summer hotel, Harvard with
the standards of a country club, is not the Harvard of her great-
est sons. It is not the Harvard of Eliot, or Emerson, or William
James.' The Nation concludes: An unprejudiced man of let-
ters, reading the correspondence between President Lowell and
Roscoe Bruce might well conclude, judging by the literary style
and breadth of spirit that THE COLORED MAN WOULD
MAKE TIIE BETTER PRESIDENT'."

I must admire the lady's courage who writes to a New York

KAHN ASKS SMALLER
SCHOOL SKETCH FEE

Architect Thinks $1,600 Too Much
for One Drawing.

Members of the Detroit board of
education sat up and gasped at the
meeting of the committee of the
whole Monday afternoon, when a
communication was received asking
a reduction in the fee to be paid to
the writer.
The communication was from Al-
bert Kahn, architect, one of four
asked to assist in preparing tenta-
live plans for the group of buildings
to be erected on Roosevelt Field. The
board fixed $1,500 each as the fee to
be paid.
Mr. Kahn wrote to the board that
he had prepared only one sketch and
did not think his services were worth
$1,500. Ile asked the board to use its
discretion in compensating him.
The secretary was directed to send
him a letter of appreciation.

newspaper in this wise:

"I see that the Secretary of the New York Bible Society is
placing Bibles now on every ship in the service of the United
States Shipping Board since there was no Bible on board the
Hatteras to be used in the burial of Captain Matthews, who died
of pneumonia contracted by exposure on the bridge. They are
now supplying the Bibles, but I see no notice of their supply-
ing the brandy that might have saved the captain's life."

Nahum Sokolow, the great Jew, who is one of the Zionist leaders,
seems to be endowed with more than the average amount of common
sense. At • meeting of the Greater Actions Committee in Berlin
he st d the point that the most important job the Zionists can
devote themselves to at this time is to set the finances of the organ-
isation in order. The "extreme money stringency," he said might
bring shout • crisis in the Zionist program. Merely as an outsider
I venture the suggestion that the Zionist party can gain nothing by
trying to extend the scope of its political program in Palestine.

Hail to Patrick O'Rourke, the champion of the WHITE RACE
in this country! Patrick O'Rourke! Truly a foine name for a de•
findir of "the Union, the Republic, the White Race, the English
Language (oh, Pathrick!) and the Stars and Stripes Forever" (and
not the Irish Free State)—Pathrick, I am surprised. Now what

d it through years of experience in the newspaper field, • desire
to get • hearing either from a soap box or in a pamphlet for ideas
that no reputable medium of expression would tolerate. Take this
wan O'Rourke—just read this fool stuff:

"Congress knows that there are some four millions of Jews
in the United States and that the Jews have been doubling their
numbers in less than ten years. If the Jews at present residing
in the United States should double their numbers every twenty
years, for six more times, that would be 120 years, then there
would be 256 millions of Jews in the United States. And then
there won't be any room for any other kind of Americans. And
Congress knows that the Bible teaches, and that the Jews be-
lieve, that in every land whereon the sole of a Jew's foot trods,
the Jews will eventually inherit the land."

If Harry Sate, • provision dealer in New York, who is opposing
the low passed by the Legislature to protect the public against the
purchase of food falsely represented as Kosher—if that man is • Jew
he ought to be run out of the Jewish community. The lawyer ap-
pointed to defend any attack made upon the constitutionality of the

law makes this statement:

"The real issue involved is not limited in importance to
Orthodox Jewry. The basic question is whether a state which
sanctions religious freedom may protect its citizens for exploita-
tion by those who seek through underhand and indefensible
practices to take advantage of the religious observances of those
citizens. It is inconceivable that any group would actually
sanction the display of non-Kosher products in such a manner
that purchasers may be deliberately deceived and misled into
believing them to be Kosher."

In view of this, if any Jew in New York opposes such protection

th en he writes himself down to the level of those bootlegger. who

forge the names of Rabbis in order to obtain liquors under guise of

use for sacramental purposes.

The news that Man Norden is seriously ill recalls the fact of his
widespread popularity many years ago when his startling books, "The
Conventional Lies of Civilization," "P•radoxm" and "Degeneration"
appeared. He was outspoken against the shams of modern society
and the boldness of his treatment shocked many staid people, but
brought about •n amazing demand for his books. Nord•u was born
in Hungary and studied medicine and has achieved fame in the field

In view of the many B'nai B'rith Grand Lodge Conventions which
are scheduled in the near future, I would like to call the attention
of the B'nai B'rith leaders to the fat that whatever little secrecy is
attached to the Order has given our enemies a club against us which
they are using with considerable effect. Anyone who is a member
of the order knows that its "secrecy" is more important In name than
in fact. Yet Cameron, of the Dearborn Independent, used it to
bolster the false position taken by his master and now the Ku Klux
Klan leaders are constantly using it to justify their right to have •
secret organixation excluding Jews. I earnestly advise the B'n•I
B 'rith leaders now as I did personally • great many year. ago to re-
muse the Order from the ranks of Secret societies. I hope that action
