Major Morris Borenstein died at the Bronx Ilospital, New York, in his
eighty-first year. Major Borenstein was for 12 years a custodian in the
office of the Secretary of State at Albany.

The body of 70_year-old Itzik Geriinan was found suspended from the

The lierlin Aeht Uhr Blatt carries a report that James Rothschild has
offered a prize for the beat novel dealing with life in the new Palestine.
The paper suggests that the competition be open to non-Jews as well as Jews.
Professor Einstein delivered an address in Gottenberg, Sweden, before
a scientific body on his theory of relativity. Among those present was King
Gustaf. Following the lecture the Swedish monarch engaged in a long chat
with the Jewish scientist.

Jews of the town of Erlau, in Hungary, were the victims of a mob
outbreak engineered by a gang of Awakening Magyars. A number of Jews
were badly beaten up. A cafe in which there were a number of Jewish
gueets was the scene of greatest disorder.

The relations of the militant Mizrachi as represented by the "Agudath
Israel" to orthodoxy and to the Zionist movement are being considered at
the convention of Polish rabbis associated with the Mizrachi movement
which is being held in Warsaw. About 75 rabbis from all parts of Poland
and Galicia are in attendance.

The first review of the kosher meat and poultry market to make its
appearance in the general press was inaugurated by the New York Evening
World. The idea, says the Evening World, is to "give to Jewish house-
wives a practical market service that will embrace receipts of meats and
live poultry, the wholesale prices and a suggested fair retail price."
Charges that the Red army is permeated throughout with anti-Semitism
are made in a Berlin Russian paper, Rul. The writer, a counterrevolution-
ary general named Frianse, quoting from alleged Russian army official rec-
ords, asserts that Soviet General Worosilow was forced to withdraw ap-
pointments of Jews as army officers because of the opposition of Red troops.
Representatives of the Vans! Leumi (Jewish Council of Palestine) have
visited Sir Gilbert Clayton, the civil secretary, to protest the appointment
of only 50 members to the gendarmerie as against 100 Arabs. The Jewish
delegation pointed out that theapponitments were in violation of the
agreement reached previously to appoint equal numbers of Jews and Arabs.
The rabbis are the only religious representatives who have not joined
in condemning the counter-revolutionists, the Emes, Moscow organ of the
Jewish Communists, declares in its current issue. Even Patriarch Tikhon
has recanted and condemned the counter-revolutionary movement, the paper
asserts. It urges the rabbis to follow the example of the Patriarch and
quit the camp of the Soviet detractors.

Thousands of New York salesmen traveling in every state In the country
will be enlistde in the drive to raise funds for the Federation for the Sup-
port of Jewish Philanthropic Societies. Herbert L. Schamberg is the chair-
man of the newly organized branch. The campaign was inaugurated to
help raise the federation's $500,000 deficit, but it has been decided to
maintain the traveling salesmen's branch as a permanent organization even
after the deficit is covered.

Emigration of members of all races and creeds from Palestine last week
reached an unusually high mark, 400 persons having left through Jaffa
during that time. The majority of those leaving gave America as their
destination, although the Palestinian annual quota will allow only a little
more than half a hundred to enter the United States. The number of
Jewish immigrants coming to Palestine during the month of June totaled
950. Of these a large number were Chaluzim.

Hopes entertained that the numerus clauses provision in Hungarian
universities would be annulled or at least modified have now been dispelled
by en announcement by the medical faculty of the Budapest University.
The announcement declares that, while there is room for 700 new students
at the university, only 35 Jews, or 5 per cent, would be accepted. This is
generally considered an indication that the promises of Premier Bethlen
and others to the Jews regarding the modification of the percentage norm
wlil not be carried out.

The Warsaw police are on the trail of what is believed to be an organ-
ized gang of Sepher Torah thieves. More than 60 scrolls of the law and
of the Megillah have been stolen lately from l'olish synagogues and, accord-
ing to information of the police, sold to Americana Several of the thieves
are under arrest. It is believed the gang consisted of four groups, one of
which made it its task to ascertain where the scrolls could be stolen, an-
other group did the actual stealing and a third group located at Danzig
had charge of the negotiations for the sale of the religious articles, while
a fourth supervised their export to America.

No anti-Jewish disturbances have occurred in Persia since September
last, Rabbi Joseph S. Kornfeld, United States Minister to I'ersia, declares
in a letter to the Joint Distribution Committee in New York. "All reports
of anti-Jewish disturbances in Teheran are not accurate," the minister
writes from the Persian capital. "None have occurred since last September.
It has been reported to me that fasts had been proclaimed in Jerusalem in
connection with pogroms in the Ukraine and Persia and that funds had
been raised for the suffering in Persia. I have promptly denied these
reports."

The nationalist policy pursued by the Roumanian government is held
by newspapers in Bucharest to be responsible for the runway disaster be-
tween Bucharest and Jassy on July 3, resulting in 78 dead and 200 injured.
The newspapers maintain that competent railway workers had been dis-
missed because they were Jews or members of other non-Roumanian races
and that the trains were put in charge of inexperienced Roumanian youths.
Of the 200 injured, 80 are said to be fatal, 110 dangerously crippled. There
are still 27 corpses that are unrecognizable. Contrary to previous reports,:
the dead include but one Jew, Eliezer Kishinewer of Braila.

Arab brigands ambushed the paymaster's railway trolley near Tulkeran,
killed the driver and his assistant and wounded the district engineer, a
Britisher, and his British aid. The car was carrying £2,000 for distribution
among the officials. The driver was named Hassan, an Egyptian, and the
Greek employe's name was Atones. District Engineer Wigley and Assistant
District Engineer Taylor got off with wounds. Apparently there was a
struggle, as the headless body of an Arab was found near the scene of the;
crime. British authorities have taken as hostages the heads of the neigh-
boring village's, confiscating part of the cattle until the murderers are'
discovered.

I William G. 11 cAdoo, prominently mention for the Democratic nomination,
ran third, with James M. Cox in fourth place. Governor Alfred E. Smith
was fifth in the total poll and third among the Democrats. Ford's vote
was 88,865, against 51,756 for Harding. Woodrow Wilson received 1,623
votes. The distribution of the vote, according to Collier's, is significant, I
as Ford ran ahead in every state except New York, Connecticut, Rhode
Island, North Carolina and Arizona. Collier's concludes that, no matter
what they think about it, politicians must reckon with the popular strength
of the automobile manufacturer.

Supreme Court Justice Irving Lehman probably will be the Democratic
nominee for Associate Judge of the Court of Appeals to succeed Judge
John W. Hogan of Syracuse, retiring under the age limit, the New York
I World predicts. The selection of Justice Lehman appears as certai n
anything can be so far in advance of the nominating convention, it is ens-
I phatically stated. The statement continues: "Convinced that the Republi-
cans can hardly afford to name a candidate against Justice Lehman and
thus break their promise, the Democratic leaders feel that even if the
justice has an opponent he can win, With Judge Hotan retiring, the Demo-
crats will have only one member of their party, Judge Benjamin N. Car-

Jews prominent in the theatrical life of America are to lend their
backing as a group to the movement sponsored by the Jewish Education
Association of New York of placing "10,000 children in religious schools
this fall." Every ranch of the industry, including management, actors, the
motion pictures and music publishers, will be represented by their leading
men on committees now being organized. Joseph Leblang is in charge of
the organization of the theaters. Among those who have promised their
aid are Sam H. Ilarris, Archie Selwyn, L. Lawrence Weber, A. H. Woods,
Al Jolson, Louis Mann, Barney Klawans, William Fox and Louis Bernstein.
"We don't care what particular form of the Jewish religion is benefited,
whether orthodox, semi-orthodox or reform," says a statement issued by
Mr. Lelang. "We ars simply interested that our children receive some
Jewish education."

The foundation in Crimea of a series of colonies for Jewish agricul-
turists is contemplated by the Joint Distribution Committee and the Jewish
Colonization Association, in accordance with the plans the former received
from Dr. Bernard Rosen, director in Russia of the J. D. C.'s reconstruction
activities. It is learned that Dr. Rosen submitted his plan to the conference
of J D. C. workers in Vienna recently under the presidency of Felix M
Warburg. The .1. D. C. representatives agreed in principle to the proposal
stipulating, however, that the $1,000,000 the undertaking would require
should come out of the moneys allocated for Jewish reconstruction in
Europe, and that the Jewish Colonial Association be asked to assume part
of the activities now carried out by the J. D. C. Dr. Ungar, the Ica repre.
sentative, gave his hearty approval of the plan, proceeding to Paris with
view to having it sanctioned by the association's "cads. Assurances were
given that the Soviet government is favorably disposed toward the plan.

What impresses us, in the first part
of our story, my dear children, is the
trus twhich Abraham placed in Eli-,
tier. And why do you think he trust-
ed him so much? It is not hard to
find the reason. Because Eliezer was
faithful in his work. It is only those
people who are honest and faithful
in their words and actions who can
be trusted.
The second part of our story, that
of the fair maid at the well, is beau-
tiful indeed. It shows the kindness
of heart of the girl who at once drew
water not only for the man, but what
was more, for his animals also. This
action so moved him that he was sure
that such a kind, good-hearted girl
would be just the wife for his young
master Isaac, and thus Abraham's last
and dearest wish was fulfilled.

THE JEWELS
Rabbi Meir sat during the whole
of the Sabbath day in the school in-
structing the people. During his ab-
sence from the house his two sons
died, both of them of uncommon
beauty, and enlightened in the law.1
his wife bore them to her bedcham-
ber and spread a white covering over
their bodies. In the evening Rabbi
Meir came home' .'Where are my
sons?" he asked. "I repeatedly look-
ed round the school, and I did not see
them there." She reached him a gob-
let. lie praised the Lord at the go-
ing out of the Sabbath, drank, and
again asked: "Where are my sons?"
"They will not be afar off," she said,
and placed food before him that he
might eat. When he had said grace
after the meal, she thus addressed
him: "With thy permission, I would
twi n propos e to thee one question."
"Ask it, then," he replied. "A few
days ago a person entrusted some
jewels into my custody, and now he
demands them of me; should I give
them back again?" "This is a ques-
tion," said the rabbi, "which my wife
should not hove thought it necessary
to ask. What! Wouldst thou hesi-
tate to restore to every one his own?"
"No," she replied, "but yet I thought
it best not to restore them without
acquainting you therewith." She then
l ed him of the chamber, and took the
white covering from the dead bodies.
"Ah, my sons! my sons!" loudly la-
mentecl the father. "My sons! the l
light of my eyes!" The mother turned
away and wept bitterly. At length
she took her husband by the hand,
and said: "Didst thou not teach me
that we must not be reluctant to re-
store that which was entrusted to our
keeping? See—the Lord gave, and
the Lord lath taken away; blessed be
the name of the Lord!"

mark shown above only after considerable

• The figure of the armored knight bearing
the shield of protection seems particularly fit-
ting for an institution of this type.
The Knights of the Middle Ages were
known for their bravery and their high
ideals of service. Theirs was both an of-
fensive and a defensive mission.
This Bank, similarly, has a two-fold pur-
pose: I. To attack and overcome the finan-
cial difficulties of people by furnishing
them with funds; 2. To protect people
from the menace of poverty by helping
them accomplish purposeful saving.
