"Baptism" is the old story of young man, lazy, irresponsible, dis- lamest, who forsakes his wife and family and out of revenge of his people becomes baptized in spite of the pangs of his conscience. Where- ever he lands, in all the capitals of the world, he becomes converted to a different church for a price. Ile lands in Russia, becomes a convert to the Russian church and in search for revenge concocts a ritual mur- der lie. It is an interesting albeit sad story. The other tales are sim- ilarly interesting, and this collect- ion is highly recommended. "Judaism of Tradition" is a vin- dication of Orthodoxy and a repudi- ation of Liberalism. Dr. Epstein concludes his introduction by de- claring: "Only Traditional Juda- ism in its allegiance to the Bible with the unshaken finger thereof pointing to the Rock of the Ages. and in its belief in Revelation and submission to Authority can claim IRVIN YARROWS to offer an earnest ard consistent philosophy, proclaim the objective to further the relief work done truth of its teachings, and thus act through the station on Twelfth as the only abiding safeguard street and at the Shaarey Zedek. against religious, moral and spiri- Music will be furnished by Del Del- bridge and his Huai retrogression." . orchestra. , . . a it ii,er is general Dr. Epstein, in his essay Re- vival and Adjustment," advocates! chairman of the dance, assisted by the convening of an universal synod the following co-chairmen: Wil- which, once established, "would liam Zuckerman, Sam Leve, Mrs. have as its main task to deliberate Agnes Yarrows and George Stutz, and give authoritative pronounce- chairman of publicity.

Besides his political and jour-I nalistic activities, Nahum Soko-1 low has also carried on a prolific literary and scientific activity. He is the author of "Sinus Olam l'Am Olam (The Eternal Hatred To- I wards the Eternal People—A Study in Anti-Semitism); "Zaddik v'Nissgav," a historic novel; "Eretz Ilemda," a geography of Palestine; and the editor of the year books "Haassif" and "Sefer Sikkaron," a biographical lexicon of contemporary Jewish writers. His recent books include "Baruch Spinoza u'Zemano" (Spinoza and His Epoch), issued in London in 1929, and "lia'Ani lia'Kibbuzi," issued in New York in 1930. Of especial importance is his "Ilistory of Zionism, in two volumes, is- sued in London in 1919, in which for the first time he attempts to give a historic explanation of the evolution in Zionist thought. He is now engaged on a colossal opus: a Hebrew lexicon. Sokolow has also translated a large number of Important works of European lit- erature into Hebrew, among them Herzl's "Alteneutand" and the "History of Jewish Litera- ture, by Gustave harpeles. This biographical note will fail to do him justice unless it included mention of his "sweet reasonable. ness." His patience and tact are inexhaustible. These qualities do not spring from a mind accustomed to a casual acceptance of fate but rather from a mature wisdom and the possession of genuine erudi- tion. Sokolow is at home in every cul- ture. Ile is in addition a charming causeure. Incidentally his wide' culture and linguistic attainments and savoir faire played no small part in obtaining support for the Jewish Homeland ideal. Wit, in- tellect, and charm combine to make him a favorite at soirees and' •-- intimate receptions. QUOTING MR.

Send Four Apparel To Them h" The following are the directors RESTRICTIONS HIT JEWISH STUDENTS During the war, Sokolow set- tled in London, where, together with Dr. Weizmann and Dr. Tchis- now, he started an energetic po- litical activity for the inclusion of the Zionist aims in the British war policies, and thus helped in the issuance of the Balfour Dec- laration. Since then Sokolow has been taking a leading part in all Zionist political activities. Since the World War he has conferred with many leading statesmen of Europe on Zionist problems and has succeeded in obtaining the en- dorsement of the French and Ital- ian governments of the Balfour Declaration. He also negotiated with the Vatican and in 1917 was received by Pope Benedict XV, to whom he explained the aims of the Zionist movement. During the peace negotiations in Versailles, Sokolow was presi- dent of the "Committee of Jew- ish Delegations," and succeeded in having Jewish minority rights in various European countries recog- nized and included in the peace treaties. Due to Sokolow's politi- cal activities, the American Con- gress endorsed the aims of the Bal- four Declaration and many gov- ernments, among them those of Poland, Rumania and South Af - rica, expressed their sympathy with the idea of a Jewish National Home. At the yearly Zionist conference in London in 1920, and at the sub- sequent Zionist congresses, Soko- low was chosen president of the Zionist Executive. When the Jewish Agency was established in 1929, Sokolow was elected to its executive, and in September, 1930, the administrative committee of the Jewish Agency made him its honorary vice-president.

In an open letter to Dr. Deis- mann, Barr Zweig charges that the rector "admitted that Dobriner did not take part in the disturbances and that last year he had resigned from the University Communist party. Nevertheless you have taken upon yourself to destroy a young life and therefore you must re- sign from office." Jewish students are of the opin- , ion that Dr. Deismann's action in expelling Dobriner was due to his endeavor to maintain a fifty-fifty I balance between the Nazis and Jews in expelling students, although the Jews are blameless. Dobriner sought to commit suicide last week when he was expelled. When your garment goes to Forest Cleans era it is protected by skil led workmanship every minute of the process.

During these past eighteen years we have seen hun- dreds of dealers come and go. Our slogan has always been, "What is best for our customers is best for us." This is the cornerstone upon which our business has been built and is our guiding thought in all our store activities and relations with our customers. In the nearly score of years we have been here, the inherent soundness of this policy has been indis- putably demonstrated. From the time we began in business we have been selling Goodyear tires. As everybody knows, more people ride on Goodyears than any other make. This has been so for 15 years. For a product to endure in unmatched popularity over a period of this length of time, it must have intrinsic value. It must be an honest product. If our experience means anything to you—if the experience of 20,000,000 motorists means anything to you — YOU SHOULD BUY GOODYEARS IF YOU WANT THE MOST FOR YOUR MONEY. Don't be confused on a lot of puzzling statistics on weight, thickness and diameters. Remember 20 million motorists can't be wrong. Why be satisfied with second choice when first choice costs no more. And we, pioneer Goodyear dealers in this city, can sell you Goodyear tires at the lowest prices possible. You can't beat Goodyear quality and we defy you to buy them cheaper than our present bargain prices. Come in and give us a chance to demonstrate these claims. (Signed) GEORGE PULFORD. JERUSALEM—(J.
