ENGLISH JEW WINS
SUIT AGAINST PAPER

LONDON.—(J. T. A.).—A libel
suit started by an English Jew
against John Bull, 1.,ndon utekly, re-
sulted in the withdrawal of the
charges made by the paper and the
payment of 800 guineas to the Keren
Hayesod. The weekly recently pub-
lished an article in which Abraham
Kastelianski, a naturalized English
Jew, who, (luring the war, acted in
an advisory capacity to the British
government. John Bull attacked the
Eastern Transport Insurance Com-
pany, from which Kastelianski re-
signed in 1921 and it accused him of
commercial dishonesty. Following the
filing of the suit, the editor of the
weekly withdrew all charges unre-
servedly and issued a statement that
there was no ground for the imputa-
tions against Mr. Kastelianski. At
the plaintiff's suggestion, the editors
have agreed to pay costs and the
amount of 800 guineas to the Keren
Hayesod.
