Morrison Makes Reply to Criticisms of Jacob de Haas. NEW YORK.—(J. T. A.)—The economic crisis in Pal- estine is disappearing and the Jewish upbuilding work in the country is on the eve of a new period of activity. The day when the Jewish Agency, which is to unite Zionists and non-Zionists in the Palestine upbuilding work, will be created is not distant. American Jews are beginning to lose the leadership they held in the past decade in providing the financial means fur the l'alestine work through the Zionist fund rain-4 ing institutions, since contributions to the Palestine funds in European countries and South Africa are in- creasing, making, the contribution of American Jews smaller in pro- portion.

Ferris brings to light an interesting letter in which he denied that he had anti-Jewish sentiments, charged against him during his candidacy for the office as wetter against the then Senator Townsend. The charges against Mr. Ferris were then made because of his admiration for the industrial genius of Henry Ford. The letter of the late Senator Ferris was slated September 3, 1923, at Rig Rapids, Mich., and was addressed to Philip Stomovitz, managing editor of The Detroit Jewish Chronicle, in response to a request for a Rosh Hashonah greeting to the Jewish people of Michigan. His sstatement WIIS accompanied the following letter in which he decried Jewish sentiment against him, but declared he was not revengeful, and in which he expressed sympathy for Jewish suffering, and declared un-American all race hatred: Your letter of August 24 at hunt, If I were a revengeful cuss I would decline sending is message, but I ant not. In the last campaign the Townsend Newberryorganization sent out circulars to all Jewish citizens advising them not to vote for me. Very few of the Jewish people did vote for me. I had used Henry Ford as an individual example worthy of imita- tion. My enemies took upon themselves the work of crushing me, so far as they possibly could. I do not hold this against the Jewish people. I know how they are persecuted even in America. "If the enclosed statement is of any value, publish it." The late Senator's Rosh Ilashona statement read as follows: "Every New Year, whatever it is, should bring joy to all of the people of the world. We are no longer, an isolated nation. We are one people, one brotherhood. There is 110 escape from that ethical doctrine. I hope the Jewish New Year will bring to the Jewish people of the world a great joy and in bringing great joy to the Jewish people great joy to all the other peo- ples of the earth. Every attempt to arouse race hatred is un- American and is a violation of God's law. Through the Ferris Institute I have come to know a great many Jewish students and they have always maintained is warm place in my heart. I sincerely hope that the Jewish nation as well as all other nations may contribute to the progress of real democracy. May all nations of the earth live together in peace and har- mony. The Jewish holidays symbolize this sort of peace." HADASSAH'S TEAMS 70111 ANNIVERSARY READY FOR U, P. A.
