NEW YORK.—The collapse of anti-
Semitic agitation in the United States
and the fact that no organized at-
tempt was made during the last year
to revive propaganda has had a most
salutary effect in minimizing anti-
Jewish activities in Europe, according
to the 10th annual report of the Amer-
ican Jewish committee. Louis Mar-
shall is president of the committee.
"In some sections of the United
States certain sinister political groups
have made anti-Jewish prejudice a
part of their program," the report
says, and there have also been a
number of sporadic occurrences which

E realize that modesty in a business as in an
individual is an admirable quality, and
that occasional statements may sound
boastful. It is our constant effort to refrain from
such statements while at the same time bringing out
the true facts about our store and ita ability to sell
"America's Finest Furniture" at prices that save our
customers about 25'; .
Accordingly, it is our policy in our advertising
to always state the facts exactly as we know them,
without any affectation, and with the utmost sin-
cerity. This, we believe, is not only true modesty, but
good business.
