Forward Discontinues
Its English Section.
NEW YORK.-- (J. T. 1.1—
IL eiders in Jewish journalism
are discussing the fart that the
Daily Jewish Forward has dis-
continued the English section,
for several years a feature of
the Sunday issue eof the paper.
The Jewish Morning Journal,
in an editorial, reviewed the
failure of the effort of Yiddish
newspapers to strengthen them-
selves against the gradual de-
cline. of the Yiddish press by
publishing sections in English.
Reference is made to the
Tageblatt, a paper founded sev-
eral years ago, which carried
an English section daily. The
paper speedily failed. Several
other Jewish papers, however,
introduced the English page as
a weekly feature. The Forward
reduced its English section to
half some time ago, and this
Sunday announced its abolition.
The Day still has an English
s. page every Sunday.

Palace of Belshazzar
May Confirm "Daniel"
LoNDoN.--(.1.
A.1 — The
Book of Daniel, whose authen-
ticity has often been doubted
by Biblical authorities, may be
proven to be one of the nicest
historically valid of Biblical
documents through the latest
archeological investigations in
Ur of the Chaldee, it has been
reveals-el by Sir Charles Mar-
ston, industrialist and scholar,
who has financed many expedi-
tions to Biblical sites.
Sir Charles has received the
reports of C. Leonard Wooley,
director of Is joint expedition of
the University of Pennsylvania
and of the British museum, ex-
cavating near Babylon. The ex-
pedition hue uncovered the site
of the palace of Princess Bel
Shalti Nanna, sister of King
Belshazzar, whose feast, accord-
ing to the Book of Daniel, was
interrupted by the Hebrew
prophet's reading of the cele-
brated "writing (on the wall."
Previous archeological discov-
eries have confirmed the sack
of Jerusalem by Belshazzar's
g randfather Nebuchadnezzar.
Cuneiform writings of the
sixth century B. C., found on
the scene of the excavations,
are said to give "remarkable
confirmation tee the fifth chap-
ter of the Book of Daniel."
