gress, an inactive body that existed
merely in name and riot in action,
needed an attraction to create an in-
terest in its annual conference, and
the Anglo-Jewish author proved the
beg card the congress could play.
Columns ulna] columns were devoted
in the Jewish press to the visit of
Zangwill, and all publicity was given
the congress unsolicited—because of
the fame of the man who was com-
ing to tell us the "bitter truth."
The impatience with which the Jews
of America waited for Zangwill's
message was rewarded by a wave of
sensational comment and quotation
in the press and an outburst of pro-
tests from Jewish leaders against
bath the address and the comment in
the press. Non-Jews also joined the
Jewish leaders in repudiating Zang-
will. The New York Evening Post
and the Sun and Globe editorially
commented on Zangwill's views and
taking issue with the Jewish author,
sided with the builders of Zion. Ar-
thur Brisbane, in the llearst publi-
cations, compared the Jews to the
Irish, and inferred that the l'ales-
tinian homeland will be realized, just
as the Irish Free State is established.
George W. Seymour, New York Even-
ing Post foreign correspondent, who
recently returned from Palestine,
took issue with Zangwill in an ad-
dress before the Menorah Society of
New York University, and declared
that "no one Is honest who declares
that a Jewish nation is not being built
in Palestine." These and similar
views prevail and, with the exception
of a handful of non-Zionists, Zang-
will stands alone in his views, inso-
far as Palestine is concerned.

the proposed establishment of an

The paper charges that the Arabs'
retrial to accede to Samuel's pro-
posal for an Arab agency is due to
intrigues and will result in the with-
drawal of the proposal.
In view of the Arab rejection, it
says, the only course open is for the
Palestine government to utilize the
ample powers conferred by the man-
date and continue the old policy de-
spite the opposition of the Arabs.

Warburg's Endorsement.
An ind'cation of the universal in-
terest in this campaign is a letter to
Rabbi Drob from Felix M. Warburg,
which follows:
"Dear Rabbi Drob: May I express
to you my appreciation for the effort
which you are making to put at the
disposal of the Jewish Theological
Seminary the necessary funds to
place that institution on the digni-
fied, assured financial basis which its
noble object requires.
"It is unnecessary for me to ex-
press how deeply I appreciate its
value and self-sacrificing services of
its officers and instructors. The
founders and directors, some of
whom have passed away, have gener-
ously laid the foundation for this in-
stitution, to which the present and
future generations of Jewry must
look for religious leadership and in-
spiration, but unless the public at
large shows Its Interest and supports
that institution, it will never be able
to fulfill its ideals. Let us hope that
your efforts will be most successful."
Rabbi Drob announces that be-
sides the contributions which were
made public at the conference ban-
quet on Oct. 7, the following addi-
tional unsolicited contributions have
been made: Temple Emanuel, New
York, $5,000; Samuel Untermyer,
$5,000; Loula M. Stroock & Sons,
