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. • • • UNITED SYNAGOGUE ADOPTS RESOLUTION NEW YORK. — The following resolution was adopted by the e: ecutive council of the United Syn- agogue of America, at its meeting on Dec. 14: "Having learned with horror and indignation of the wanton outrages committed by Itoumanian students upon innocent and unoffending Jews and Jewesses in Grosswarden TO ASSIST HOME FOR CONSUMPTIVES L and says that Roumania has not AGREE SOCIETY HOLDS ITS ANNUAL BANQUET fulfilled her obligations.

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.
