GENEVA.—(J. T. A.1—A large
number of Jewish residents in Con-
stantinople are threatened with ex-
pulsion if they do not voluntarily
leave prior to Feb. 18, 1929, it was
learned following the discussion
by the League of Nations Assem-
bly On the question of the new
refugees from Turkey.
The matter was referred to the
Nans•n Commission for the prepa-
ration of a plan. It appears that
Kernel Pasha, carrying out his slo-
gan of "Turkey for the Turks,•
gave notice to all non-Turks who
are residents of Constantinople tto
leave the city before Feb. C., 1929.
A large number of those affected
by the order are Jews. The dis-
tribution of these refugees among
other countries presents a very
difficult problem, especially in re-
gard to the Jewish refugees, who
were engaged in trade and the pro-
fessions but ere not agriculturists
or land workers, who might be
easily placed elsewhere.

Ismail Excel.' Not Serious.

BCC!! A REST.— (J. T. A.1--
The anti-Jewish excesses which
occurred last week in Ismail, Bess-
arabia, were not of a serious
character, states an official govern-
ment communique issued here.
The events are described as an
incident of minor importance. Sev-
eral drunken peasants broke into
the synagogue, attempting to rob
the synagogue of valuables. They
were, however, halted by other
peasants and by the intervention
of the police.

Rumanian Anti-Semitism Renewed

VIENNA.—(J. T. A.1—The
anti-Semitic groups in Rumania
seem to have undertaken a new
anti-Jewish campaign, it appears
from reports corning out of the
country.
Numerous secret conferences of
anti-Semitic groups are being
held in Mtoldava and Bukowina,
where efforts are made to straight-
en out the differences among the
various leaders so that a united
anti-Semitic front may be re-estab-
lished. These efforts assume par-
ticular significance in view of the
government crisis and the proba-
bility that new elections will be
held. It is stated on good author-
ity that at one of the secret con-
ferences, Alexander Cuza was in-
trusted with the mission of hasten-
ing a reunin of anti-Semitic forces.

Sentence Russian Hooligans.

MOSCOW.—(1. T. In-
creased sentencee were imposed be
the Moscow People's Court upon
the hooligans who were originally
trip! in July for the tortures per-
petrated on the aged Jewish resi-
dent of Moscow, Kaufman.
Following three hours' delibera-
tion the court increased the sen-
tence of Lichomanoff and Ivan Go-
lovkin from nine months to tw,o
years' imprisonment; George Lubi-
ropy from six months to one year
Alexej Zheleznov and Alexej Lu-
himov, two of the new defendants,
were sentenced to three months at
hard labor. Ivan Zheleznov was
acquitted.
The defense sought to prove in
the retrial that the acts were not
anti-Semitic but merely hooligan-
ism. The courtroom was crowded
with friends end relatives of the
defendants. The judge threatened
to clear the room if the demon
stration staged by the friends of
the defendants would be repeated.
During the testimony of Kauf-
man's wife, when she described the
persecutions of her husband, she
wept and on conclusion fainted.

Announce Program for One-
Day Sessions on Tues-
day, October 9.

-S

Mrs. 'Maier B. Finsterwald and
Mrs. Harold II. Smiley, members
of the legislative committee of the
Detroit sestina, National Council
of Jewish Women, discussed with
enthusiasm the progr: is of plans
for the One-Day Non-Partisan
School for Women Voters, to be
held at Temple Beth El on Tues-
day, Oct. 9. The sessions are be-
ing presented under the auspices
of that organization under a plan
worked out by the League of Wom-
en Voters. Mrs. Finsterwald and
Mrs. Smiley are in charge of tick-
ets and luncheon reservations.
"Jewish women in Detroit as a
group, although well informed on
political flatters, do not partici-
pate in political meetings to any
great extent," Mrs. Finsterwald
said. For that reason this school
is something of an experiment, al-
though 'successful with other
groups throughout the state. The
non-partisan feature of this meet-
ing seems to appeal to our mem-
bers. Their re-action has been one
of keen interest."
The carefully thought out plan
of the meeting would not of itself
make the schosol interesting," said
Mrs. Smiley. It is the fact. that

COURSES' CHANGES
MADE BY COLLEGE

Dr. Franklin's Departure
Causes Revision; New
Course in Religion.

Due to the fact that Dr. Leo M.
Franklin is to leave for California
early in November upon the sab-
batical...year recently granted him
by the Temple in observance of
his thirtieth year of service, sev-
eral changes had to be made in the
courses which were announced by
Beth El College of Jewish Studies
in The Detroit Jewish Chronicle of
Sept. 22.
The course in the New Testa-
ment which was to have been given
by Dr. Franklin will not be given
this year.
The course in Jewish customs,
symbols and ceremonies which was
to have been given by Dr. Frank-
lin will be given instead by Rabbi
Leon From.
The course in Bible history and
literature which was to have been
given by Rabbi Fram will be given
instead by Louis II. Schostak, who
was for ninny years a student a;
the Hebrew Union College and
who for the past three years has
been teaching Bible to the senior
class of Beth El High School and
has supervised the teaching of
Bible throughout our School of Re-
ligion.
Course in Literature.
Rabbi Frain will also give a
course in current Jewish literature,
which is a survey of the great
dramas, novels, poems and essays
of Jewish subjects which have ap-
peared in recent times in Ilebrew,
Yiddish and English and other
European languages.
A new course in the departme.,'
of religion is offered under the
general title, "Why I Ant What I
Am," which will consist of ad-
dress•s to be delivered by Detroit
representatives of the various re-
ligions. An eminent Detroit Cath-
olic, an eminent Detroit Protest-
ant, a Mohammedan, a Buddhist, a
Theosophist and many other rep-
resentatives of great religious
bodies and movements will present
each an outline of his faith and
answer questions on and discuss
the doctrines and practices of his

religion.

The full schedule of this series
will he announced in the very near
future.
The greatest amount of inter-
est centers this year about the
course in methods of Jewish teach-
ing to be given by Miss Stella Su-
finsky, assistant supervisor of lit-
erature in the Detroit public
schools. Many young people who
are either now teaching or who de-
sire to prepare themselves to
teach tin a Jewish religious school
or to lead a group of Jewish boys
and girls are planning to take this
course.
The complete series of lectures
on problems of the American Js %-
ish community which will be begun
by Dr. John Slawson will also be
announced in the near future.
College Open. Oct. 15.
Miss Rose Pike, who is the last
three years has performed the
miracle of teaching a knowledge
of the Ilebrew language in 30 les-
sons, will continue her elementary
and advanced courses in Hebrew.
The registration fee is $2 per
course. All the courses are given
on Monday night, beginning Mon-
day, Oct. 15, but any group of at
least 15 students who will apply
for a course to be given at some
other time during the week will
be accommodated. All such appli-
cations must be made to Rabbi
Leon Frani, the general director
tof the college.
The revised Bulletin of Beth El
College of Jewish Studies will be
sent to anyone who writes or tele-
phones a request for it to Miss
Anna Oxenhandler, registrar,
