SWEDISH MASSAGE Take Woodward Through Car. Cherry 4784 Variations in Croups. A new cure for tuberculosis of the throat, by the use of artificial ultra- violet rays, produced from coal, was demonstrated at the Laryngological Clinic by Dr. Wessely, assistant to Prof. Marcus Ilajeks. The demonstra- tion was witnessed by a large audience of physicians, and it was stated that numerous people afflicted with that disease had been cured. The faculty of Jassy University has decided that the Jewish medical students must do their dissecting on Jewish corpses. As the university medical school has no Jewish corpses now, Jewish students, who comprise about 70 per cent of this year's class, will be unable to take examinations and will not receive their diplomas until next year, and possibly not then. The controversy over Jewish corpses has been one of the bitterest phases of the anti-Semitic movement in Roumania. • • • • A considerable number of well-to-do Jewish citizens of Macedonia were murdered during the last several weeks, according to a report published in the Bulgarian paper, Bolgarski Myr. The victims were among those Jews who had received blackmail letters from the committajes, threatening death unless money was given them. The murderers have not yet been appre- hended. The Bulgarian Government, the paper states, has announced that it will employ the severest measures against these terrorist bands. The bombing of the Jewish synagogues in the cities of Frankfort, Leipzig and Breslau were to be the signals for a general putsche in Ger- many, according to the admissions of four members of the anti-Semitic Bluecher group, whose trial started in Leipzig. They also admitted that the preparations for the putoche, prior to their arrest, had reached the stage Where dynamite had been procured. They involved in this conspiracy l'rof. Ruge and other anti-Semitic leaders, as well as Captain Pomarede, French Connection Officer in Frankfort. • • • • The question of the proper name of the Palestinian Government was raised by the Arab paper, fileraat El Sherk, in connection with the issu- ance of diplomas to a number of Jewish graduates of the elementary school. In the diplomas given these graduates the term "Government of Eretz Yisroel" was used, while in the English and Arab diplomas, the words "Government of I'alestine" were used. The paper protests against the use of the former term, claiming that it would imply that l'alestine is a Jewish country and that its vve.rnmp ent. is Jewish. .

"No one of the three races, the Nordic, the Alpine, or the Mediter- ranean, occurs as the exclusive race of any country. Even as far north as Sweden the races are not pure. Brigham makes a heroic attempt to use the national averages as the basis for racial average. "In passing over from national to racial we occupy shaky ground, be- cause the percentage of the different stocks in the different nationalities is not known, and whether the immi- grant would represent the national race is another point. There is noth- ing scientific in this part of Brigham's work, nor anything practical about it. We cannot say that we will admit so many Nordics or so many of other groups. "I would cancel all that part of Professor Brigham's work that has to do with Nordics in this country as a concession to those who want Nordics here. We cannot substitute race figures for national figures, because there is as much race mixture of Nor- dic, Alpine and Mediterranean in ev- ery national group." • ski, That the Polish government, under the premiership of Vladielaw Grab- Is carrying on a discriminatory anti-Jewish policy, particularly in its present efforts to regulate the economic problems of the country, was the charge made by Jewish Deputy Reich at a general session of the Diet, during a discussion of the budget. Deputy Reich pointed out that the demands of the Jewish population in Poland are very moderate, and that it is easy to satisfy them; that since the Jews have no territorial aspirations, all that they want is that their civil and cultural rights be respected. The speaker cited a number of incidents where the government had either ignored the economic interests of the Jewish population or had directly acted against them. • • • • MANUEL URBACH "One of the matters brought up by the army results was the differ- ence between the different groups; that is, whites, negroes and Italians as distinguished from the Irish, Ger- mans and others. An effort was made in analyzing the army test re- sults to distinguish between these dif- ferent groups. There was no record in any case of parentage, apart from the place of nativity. If a man was born in Italy, that fact was known in the records. "There were about 10,000,000 test- ed in the draft and 100,000 drawn as a sample from the records of physi- cal analysis which contains a pretty good sized standard of the different nationality groups. The first thing we discover is that there are differ- ences according to the sample that are pretty definite. Without going outside the draft itself, there are dif- ferences within the draft, according to the parentage of the different in- dividuals," Professor Woodworth criticised the theory of Professor Carl C. Brigham of Princeton embodied in "A Study of American Intelligence." In dis- agreeing with Professor Brigham's having interpreted intelligence tests in terms of European races, he said That her "un-American utterances and unpatriotic character," should preclude Rosika Schwimmer, formerly of filidapest, Hungary, and a mem- ber of the "Peace-Special" party, from being granted citizenship papers, is the gist of a resolution recently adopted by the American Legion Auxiliary in conference at Indianapolis. The resolution was sent to the Department of Labor in Washington. Rosika Schwimmer, the Jewish feminist and writer, is believed to have been the one who induced Henry Ford to start on his famous peace ship, of which she was one of the members. • • • A apecal legal status for the Jewish population of Bavaria, recalling the discriminations practiced against the Jews in Germany during the medieval ages, was demanded recently by the German Voelkische Partei in a motion introduced at the first meeting of the newly elected Bavarian Diet. One of the clauses of the motion calls for the annulment of all Germanized names of Jews, and for the prohibition of Jews from Ger- manizing their names. Another motion introduced by the Voelkische Partei demands the abolition of the pension granted by the Bavarian Gov- ernment to the widow of Kurt Eisner. • • • The executive committee of the B'nai B'rith has accepted a plan for compiling and publishing a history of the Order and of the various district grand lodges. Since the work of the B'nai Brith is closely connected with the life of the Jews in America, and all their activities for the last fifty years, such a history is considered of great Jewish national interest. Steps to inaugurate new lodges at Manila, Ilavana and Amsterdam have been taken by the administration board of the B'nai B'rith. The same board has already granted charters to new lodges in Switzerland; Przemysl, Poland; Cottbus, Germany; Haifa, Palestine end A:chaffenburg, Germany. That the dark-skinned Abyssinians claim racial relationship with the ancient Ilebrews is the statement made in a letter received by the chief rabbinate of Palestine from Prince Regent Ras Taf AM of Abyssinia, who is now touring Europe. The prince regent assures the Palestine chief rab- binate that his people have the most friendly feelings towards the Jewish people of Palestine and he promises to give full protection and assistance to the Falashi, a section of the Abyssinian people which has been prac- ticing Judaism since ancient times. A fund of $30,000 was recently raised in America for the schooling and instruction of the Falashi Jew's. Finest in Detroit. Domestic Prices Right. A 22 year old chalutz, Moishe Bernzweig, committed suicide by jump- ing into the Danube. Bernzweig was stranded in Vienna while en route to Palestine owing to a lack of funds and necessary documents. About 400 young chalutzim, mainly from Poland, are now stranded in Vienna unable to proceed on their journey to Palestine because they are not in posses- sion of the necessary documents. The Austrian Government at first thought of repatriating many of them, but on the intervention of the Palestine Emigration Office in Vienna, which gave certain guarantees that they would not stay long in Austria, they have been given permission to re- main temporarily. • • • • The memory of Walter Ratheneu, the German Foreign Minister, who was murdered by the anti-Semites, was honored throughout the entire country by the republican elements, on the second anniversary of his death. Particularly impressive was the memorial assembly held at his grave in the Jewish cemetery in Berlin, at which 5,000 republicans paid tribute to Rathensu's genius. The memorial address was made by Scheidt.- mann, the leader of the German Social Democrats. A bouquet of flowers was laid upon the grave by President Ebert. A memorial gathering was also held in the Rathenau villa, where the murder took place. Ebert, in his speech there, announced the establishment of • society for the perpetuation of Walter Rathenau's memory. ■■ \\\\ 6.1 ∎ •01 NI 01.11001.• 10 al ■■■■■ .\11. 1 1MMY Continercial Artists and Engravers LEWIS BROTHERS ro0 NUMMI SLOB.

The Jewish daily, The Day, com- menting upon the matter asks: "To interfere in somebody else's affair? Is the attack of the Klan on the Jews somebody else's affair? Are we not vitally interested that the attacks be stopped, or that they should not come from a powerful and politically in- fluential organization like the Klan? Mr. Untermyer thinks it is not. It is both comic and tragic. The ques- tion only: 'What causes a Jew who holds such an opinion to remain in office as chairman of such a national Jewish institution as the Keren Hayes sod?'" Similar astonishment at the atti- tude of Untermyer is expressed by the Yiddish daily Forward, in its is- sue of last Saturday.

The taxes imposed under the previous law were as follows: On a telephone toll message for which the charge was more than fourteen cents and not more than fifty cents On a message for which the charge was more than fifty cents 5 cents 10 cents These taxes were highest, in proportion to the charge for service, for toll messages over moderate distances, the tax in some cases amounting to one-third of the toll charge. We have anticipated the increased use of toll facilities that will follow the removal of these taxes and are prepared to care for it.
