The Frenchman begins to wish to be "informed." It is this thing which has led to tin; reading of Zangwill's "Children of the Ghetto" and "Dreamers of the Chet- hi," of the stories by Peretz as well as of the novels about the Jews of Ga- licia by the Tharaud Brothers. The "Trois Femmes," the "Nocturnes" by !mann and still other works, for 1 do nut intend to exhaust the list, are be- ing read with great interest. Obscure- ly, however, even the least informed reader applies himself to solving the question as to how much credence he can give to these works. Ile reasons that the works of Zangw ill and Per- etz may be partial to the morality or to the virtues of their co-religionists because they are Jews. Rut he feels that these books are exact chronicles with regard to the Jewish customs, re- ligious rites 111111 the whole Jewish !mains yivendi! And when the French- men reads the brothers Tharaud who are neither Jews nor revolutionists, he will have to admit the high rank which Jewish idealism holds in the world. With Unarm and his "Nocturnes" we approach the other point of view and the most delicate. M. Imann has intuit talent; he knows to compose a book and present his characters. Be- sides, he seems to like neither democ- racy, nor parliamentarism, nor the Jews. Ile has seen them in Geneva during the war—the Jewish colnoy, the most numerous of all the colonies that had emigrated to Switzerland, and from which Lenin emerged in U1l7. Ile spoke of them without sym- pathy. Nevertheless he, too, helped to make us know them. lie was among those who are persuaded that all Jews are Bolshevists, at least all Russian Jews. This is incorrect. However little we may know of the history of contemporary Russia, still very much confused to our eyes, we do know that the most numerous Jewish party, the Bond, is anti-Bolshevist and has been persecuted with all the malevolence of which 1.4.11111 and Trotzky were capa- ble. One may even say that it is as- tonishing that there is not one among them that owns a plot of ground, and among the individual owners of the soil are found the most natural and determined opponents of communism. That the Jewish laborers of Russia br- oom. Bolshevists, is not at all sur- prising; they did as their Gentile ma- rades. The Jewish intellectuals of Russia are divided on the question of Bolshevism, lust like the Gentile in- tellectuals. This is, I believe, the real situating; but whatever a Jew does, it is noticed. If my child digs its fin- ger into its nose, I do not see it. If it is that of my neighbor, I say it is badly brought up. Finally, whether one wants to or not, the Jewish question is beginning in France to enter upon a period of disinterested, objective inquiry through our literature. It should he stated that it is also through literary means that the French bnureoisie come to now the labor question; for under the mercenary July monarchy the reigning classes considered the workers in the great industries as mere savages without regard for creed France Discards Anti-Semitism Id Th e :when! ) after.

PLAN AN EXTENSION OF WOMEN'S LEAGUE At a meeting which will take place Monday afternoon, Jan. 19, 2:15 o'clock, at the Philadelphia and Byron avenue Talmud Torah. the Women's League f the United Hebrew Schools will consider plans to establish a northwestern branch of the organiza- tion to interest itself in the develop- ment of the new school. Morris D. Waldman, managing director of the United Jewish Charities. will deliver an address. The officers of the league Mrs. Arthur Schwartz, presi- are. dent; Mrs. Wolf Kaplan and Mrs. Philip Gordon, vice-presidents; Mrs. Jacob l'erlmutter, secretary; Mrs. Moses Weiswasser, treasurer; Mrs. Joseph II. Ehrlich, financial se -retary. The new branch of the league will have as its initial task to effect ar- rangements for conveying numerous young children who desire to attend the Philadelphia and Byron avenue school but are unable to to so owing to the fact that they live at a con- siderable distance and their parents the are unwilling to allow them to use street cars. The branch wil consider which, will a plan to purchase a bus convey the children to and from the school. The bus. with a seating ca- pacity of 25, will, it was calculated, enable 100 children to attend the Tal- mud Torah daily. of the E. Rabinowitz, president and Bernard United Hebrew Schools, Isaacs, principal, are of the opinion that a carefully worked out plan for children liv- conveying to the school would deublo ing in outlying districts the school's enrollment. t.
