decision to establish a World Fed-
eration of Jewish Women to be •

oorganizatinns and societies was
adopted at the world conference of
Jewish women which closed its ses-
sions here June ro. airs. Rebekah
Kohut of New York was chosen
president of the new organization.
The purpose of the federation, as
described in the program adopted,
is "to give consideration to the
problems of Jewish women
throughout the world and to fur-
ther the unity of the Jewish com-
munities."
The program of the new organ-
ization and its manifold interests
were given expression in a variety
of resolutions adopted: to wurk
for the strengthening of the ideal
of world peace, to support
religious and cultural institutions
and schools, to co-operate with the
recently established Society for the
Observance of the Sabbath (to
which society the new federation
is to send three representatives),
to work for the introduction of
ilt•brew as the language of in-
struction in Jewish cahoots, to
champion the cause of woonan's
suffrage everywhere, to sack the
establishment of a Council of Or-

"Einstein is a notable exception
to this theory. Ile has placed his
efforts, his genius, his time to the
service of his people. This scien-
tist has gone on tours in the inter-
ests of the Jewish Homeland. Ile
has taken two trips to this coun-
try, and on every occasion spoke
of the cause most important to
him, the cause of Palestine.
"Best Way to Honor Him."
"The best may of appreciating
and honoring Einstein is by dedi-
cating ourselves to what is dear-
est to him, to the cause of the re-
building of Palestine, which, we
expect. will produce great men
who will be great men because
they will be great Jews."
In referring to Dr. Einstein as
"a notable exception" to the rule
of great men who took everything
from their people and gave noth-

declared that the human problem
is the most serious Jewish prob-

Declaring that "to understand a
