In its recommendations to the con-
ference, consisted of Messrs. Leo
Wolfson, Louis Londe, Max Silver-
stein, Sol Mutterperl, N. Goodman,
Hon. Morris Bloch, Judge Adolph
Stern, Dr. A. J. Itongy, Dr. A. Col,
alnick, Rabbi Zevi Kahn and Dr.
Benj. Itabelsky. The resolution
presented by Mr. 'Wolfson was dis-
cussed by a number of the dele-
gates present and as ultimately
adopted read as follows:
Whereas, since 1922 the anti-
Semitic outbreaks in Roumania
have gone on unceasingly despite
the representations and protests
made by various Jewish groups
within and outside of Itoumania
and regardless of the solemn prom-
ises and pledges given by the Rou-
manian government to those repre-
sentatives and
"Whereas, the systematic propa-
ganda of racial hatred conducted
by the heads and leaders of vari-
ous faculties of the universities
with the connivance of leading of-
ficial circles in Roumania, hav e
brought about conditions under
which the destruction of Jewish
lives and property, the desecration
of places of worship, have become
common occurrences, and
Protest Outrages.
"Whereas, the recent riots in
Oradia Mare and other cities of
Roumania have hroguht serious
harm and danger to the lives and
safety of all Roumanian Jews
"Therefore, this conference of
delegates from Jewish national,
central and local organizations
voices its protest to the Itoumanian
government against these outrages
and policy of repression and perse-
cution. We demand not only puni-
tive action against the perpetrra-
tors of the crimes but also redress
of all the wrongs committed
against the Jewish people in Rou-
mania, i. e. a complete change of
attitude to the Minority peoples
living in Roumania.
"We appeal to all enlightened na-
tions in the world and particularly
to our own government to use their
good offices, and in the interests of
humanity, to do their utmost to
bring about a cessation of these
acts of injustice and violence."
It was further decided that a del-
egation representing the American
Jewish Congress and affiliated or.
ganlzations proceed to Washington
to present the facts as to the Rou-
manian persecutions to the Depart-
ment of State and other branches
of our government. The adminis-
trative committee of the American
Jewiah Congress, together with a
committee representative of the
conference, were further empower.
ed to convene at short notice a
large protest meeting, if, in the
judgment of the Joint Committee,
such steps should be deemed advis-
able.

At this affair it is hoped that
the foundation will be laid for the

COUNCIL OF WOMEN
HONORS MRS. WELT
(Continued from First Page.)
State Conference held in Dayton,
where Mrs. Welt served on several
important committees, to which
she proved herself a valuable
asset.
"The national board is made up
of women from all over the United
States, meeting twice a year to
work out between triennials the
broad, comprehensive and splen-
did program of the Coined of
Jewish Women. It is naturally the
desire of the organization to have
these women represent the
strength, the intelligence and the
idealism of the Jewish woman
power in America. The Detroit
section agrees with the national
board that it has made a wise and
intelligent choice in selecting Mrs.
Welt to serve, for she brings to
the problems not only her experi-
ence with a large and old organiz-
ation—in point of fact, older than
the council itself—but she brings
with this experience an untiring
energy and thoroughness and
healthy solution. Detroit con-
gratulates itself and congratu-
lates the national organization."
