In Pledges.
Unless the Joint Distribution
Committee receives, through the
United Jewish Campaign a mini•
mum of $7,500,000 in cash by Dec.
31, 1928, its European relief and
reconstructive work will have to be
drastically curtailed.
This was strongly emphasized by
David A. Brown, national chairman
of the United Jewish Campaign, in
an address he delivered at the (lon-
structive Relief Conference held in
Chicago on Oct. 22 and 23 by that
organization and the Joint Distri-
butien Committee.
"We have raised in subscrip-
tions to date, in rough figures,
$20,000,000," said Mr. Brown.
"We have collected in cash $9,-
000,1100.
"There are two things that we
must do during the next 11 months.
"First, we must collect the $11,-
000,000 outstanding on subscrip-
tions.
"Second, we must raise at least
$5,000,000 in new subscriptions.
"But more important still. we
must collect a minimum of $7,500,-
000 by Dec. 31, 1920, otherwise the
J. D. C. will be compelled to cur-
tail its European program.
"Do you want that to happen?
Do you want any part of our work
in Europe stopped? What part of
it? What institutions shall we
close, whom shall we stop taking
care of? Ask yourselves these ques-
tions-and your answer is 'No-we
must go on.'
'But to go on, we must have not
one penny less than $7,500,000 on
hand, in cash, in the treasury of
the J. D. C. not one day later than
Dec. 31, 1920.
As I said, we have raised $20,-
000,000 in subscriptions, so far.
This means that $11,000,000 is still
available, and every effort must be
made by the state and local chair-
men and treasurers to speed up the
collections so that the work we are
doing for suffering millions shall
not have to he let down.
"The Jewish weekly press, which
has served this cause with rare con-
secration will help. The Yiddish
dailies who have been our staunch-
est allies and supporters will help.
The daily press will help.
"Go after this money. There are
thousands who will respond and
their response will be in exact
measure to your urging, to your ef•
fort to get this response."
Before the conference had ended
Chicago turned over $2511,000: Phil-
adelphia, $11100110; Detroit $5,000;
Milwaukee $10,000; and Paul Baer-
wald, who in edition to being treas-

Deutlebaum.
"Its cultural events are of the

on the subject "This Believing
World."
Dr. Browne, a representative of
the young intellectual group which
is playing such a prominent part
in the field of American letters to-
day, entered the rabbinate to aid
in the establishment of the social
religion, doing for his sect what
the young Christian ministers
were attempting to promulgate.
His researches, like theirs, took
him out of the limits of one sect
into the study of the broad field
of man's religion. Fascinated by
his work, the young man went
abroad, visiting the Near East,
talking with the leaders of the
world's great religions, delving
into the history of the religions
which had influenced the older
worlds. Then he wrote his book
which won the immediate acclaim
of the critics.
Ile has left the rabbinate now,
having chosen writing as his field,
thinking it the more effective
method of creating understanding
and tolerance.
Dr. Browne recently returned
from a seven months' trip abroad,
during which he gathered material
for forthcoming books. Ile was
much impressed with the spiritual
decadence of Europe and the rise
in Russia of what he believes will
become a new religion, not a po-
litical cult, which will be what is
known as Communism.
The same ease in telling a story,
the same wealth of imagination
which adds color and beauty to
subjects which have heretofore
been left only for the scholar and
theologians, is evidenced in Dr.
Browne's ability as a lecturer.
The council takes pleasure in
inviting to this meeting all who
are interested.

M. II. Zackheim and Israel Zilber Tell Their
Impressions Of Conference Events.
Ilea roil Zionists, delegates to the
Cleveland Conference held last Sat-
urday and Sunday, expressed their
views of the conference this week
in statementts to The Detroit Jew-
ish Chronicle.
Joseph II. Ehrlich, commenting
on the significance of the confer-
ence to Detroit Jewry, said:
"One of the bright spots of the
conference was the announcement
by the Detroit delegation that it had
conic prepared to turn over $10,000
in cash. Ours was one of the few ,
cities of the country that was ,
thoughtful enough to bring a cash
payment to the conference. We al.
so pledged $15,000 more to be paid
before Jan. 1. Needless to say, the
fulfillment of this premise depends
entirely upon the response of De-
troit Jewry in paying unredeemed
pledges which now total approxi-
mately $50.000 due in 1927. We
anticipate that about half of this
amount, at least, will be forthcom-
ing. It was certainly a big thrill
to be able to step up and offer our
donation after Mr. Lipsky's stir-
ring and eloquent appeal."
Rabbi A. Si. Ashinsky, spiritual
head of Congregation Emanuel, ex-
pressed satisfaction with the re-
news,' spirit of hops, that pervaded
the conference.
"All in all, notwithstanding the
difficulties that the Palestinian pso-
ple have had to contend with under
pressure of the present crisis, the
Zionists have not lost their courage
but, on the contrary, are deter-
mined to work with more zeal than
before. This Wag amply demon-
strated by the Cleveland Confer-
ence.
"Judging from the spontaneous
response to the appeal of President
Louis Lipsky it is obvious that
American Jewry means to make
every effort to come to the rescue
of the worker% in Palestine," said
Rabbi Ashinsky.
A. J. Koffman emphasized the en-
thusiasm of the delegate. and the
hopeful spirit that marked the Sex-
shins of the conference.
"It was easy to see that no adver-
sity ran shake the faith of Ameri-
can Zionists in the ultimate Fae-
ces, of our great task," said Mr.

CLEVELAND.- (J. T. A.) -
The Old Guard of the Zionist move-
ment rallied to the support of the
Palestine cause, again undertook to
raise an amount of $7,500,000 as
American Jewry's contribution this
year for the Palestine funds, and
re-introduced a spirit of confidence
in the future of the work in a series
of spontaneous actions and resolu-
tions at the national conference on
Palestine held at the Hotel Statler
here. The renewed confidence was
backed up by raising an amount
exceeding $300,000 from among
the delegates on account of unpaid
pledges in the various regions and
communities, as well as advances
of contributions to this year'a cam-
paign. The amounts will be paid
in before Jan. 1, in order to enable
the new Jerusalem Executive to as-
sume its task.
About 300 delegates mainly from
midwestern cities were in attend-
ance. The four sessions were pre-
sided over by Morris Rothenberg,
Judge William M. Lewis, Louis
Lipsky and Rabbi Goldman.
American Zionists launched this
year's campaign after they listen-
ed to the lashing criticism of Dr.
Stephen S. Wise who, terming it
"self criticism," was unsparing
with regard to the policies and the
execution of these policies by the
Zionist leadership and by the Brit-
ish government as the mandatory
power for l'alestine. A break-down
of the machinery of the Zionist
movement was the result of these
policies, Dr. Wise stated.

contentions made by Dr. Wise.
