The formation of the Federal
Council of Palestine Institutions
for the purpose of co-ordinating
and increasing the various activi-
ties in the United States for the
benefit of the scores of religious
educational and welfare institu-
tions of Palestine, which are in-
dependent of the Zionist funds,
has been hailed and called forth
great satisfaction in Palestine.
In a cable from Jerusalem,
Chief Rabbi Dr. Isaac Herzog and
jointly with the leaders of the
numerous Yeshivoth, Talmud
Torahs, Homes for the Aged, Or-
phan Asylums, Hospitals ,
etc., express their profound satis-
faction with the formation of the
Council.
These venerable leaders stress
the financial plight of the institu-
tions, which have been deprived
of all other sources of income ex-
cept that of the American Jewry,
and they express the hope that
"the Council under the leadership
of Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum will
succeed in its sacred aim of sal-
vaging the institutions."
In a statement issued by the
Council at its office at 38 Park
Row, New York City, attention
is drawn to many other cables
which it has received lately,
amongst them one from Chief
Rabbi J. II. Dushinsky of the
Agudath Israel community, pic-
turing the position of the institu-
tions in Palestine as bordering on
catastrophe.
The Council also calls attention
to the fact that because of the
impaired postal connections with
Palestine any aid sent there by
mails is of little if any value.
The only way to send help there
is by cable. It therefore appeals
to all those contributors, old and
new, who want their aid to reach
the institutions in Palestine
promptly to forward same to the
American offices of the various
Palestinian institutions. They, in
turn, will forward the money by
cable. Further information re-
garding the orthodox institutions
in Palestine may be obtained
from the Federated Council.

and the Legal Chronicle
Mosessohn, prominent Ben Brith,
Zionist, Anglo-Jewish editor, law-
yer, and noted trade organizer,
died Aug. 1, at the 5th Ave.
Hospital, following the effects of
a heart attack suffered about
three weeks ago, He was 56 years
old.
Physicians attending Mr. Mose-
ssohn agreed that his death was
hastened by the ardors of his
voluntary and unrelenting serv-
ice in the nationwide struggle
against Nazism and anti-Semitism,
a task in which he played a lead-
ing role as a member of the ex-
ecutive council of the anti-De-
famation League of Bnai Brith.
His father, Dr. Nehemiah Mose-
ssohn, founded the Jewish Tri-
bune in 1903, and Mr. Mosessohn
and his brothel., David, were ac-
tive in its publication. For more
than a decade after Dr. Moses-
sohn's death, until 1931, the
paper continued with Mr. Moses-
sohn as its editor.
£100,000 Grant for Promoting
Palestine Self-Sufficiency
Approved
JERUSALEM.— (Palcor Agen-
cy)—A grant of £100,000 design-
ed to promote Palestine's self-
sufficiency has been approved by
High Commissioner Sir Harold
MacMichael. The funds are to be
taken from the Government sur-
plus now on hand.
The main purpose of the grant
will be to increase the agricul-
tural productivity of Palestine,
thus enabling the people to sub-
stitute locally grown foodstuffs
for certain imports. Primarily the
money will be used for loans to
procure seed and fertilizer, and
to enable the recipients to culti-
vate the areas between the young
trees in the citrus groves.
Some of the money, however,
will be used for short-term loans
through which tractors to break
the new land may be hired. There
will also be loans on which pay-
ment will be due in periods rang-
ing from five to 15 years; these
latter are intended for the in-
stallation of irrigation facilities
for vegetables and fodder, and
also for cold-storage facilities to
accommodate the potato crops.
Mental Testing Part of Ju-
venue Court Work; uc
linquents Studied by Ex-
parts
Wayne County has one of the
few psychiatric or mental hy-
giene clinics in the United States
attached to a Juvenile Court.
Through the expert services of
the Clinic, the Court has been
able to work out more intelligent
plans for the treatment of the
perplexing problems presented by
some of the children who come
to its attention.
One phase of the Clinic's work
is to determine the child's age
or I. Q. This is done by giving
the child standard tests worked
out by experts over a period of
years. Each age level has a dif-
ferent set of tests. The child's
results on these tests are com-
pared with those set up for one
of his age level, and a com-
parison can then be made. For
example, little Richard's response
to a question asked of 7-year
olds "In what way are iron and
silver alike?" was, "They are
both heavy." He was credited
with an answer at that age level,
since more than half of the
7-year olds make a similar re-
sponse. When 7-year old Stanley
answered to the same question,
"They are both black", he failed,
since more than half of the 7-
year old make a more accurate
answer.
Judge D. J. Healy, Judge of
Probate, who has charge of the
Juvenile Court and the Clinic,
has found that a clear recogni-
tion of a child's intellectual level
has often helped to solve his par-
ticular problem; that even
though the child's fears, worries
and emotional condition at the
time the tests are given to him
influence his results, yet they are
a fairly reliable index of his
general abilities and handicaps.
An illustrating case was that
of Leo, who was a school prob-
lem, picked fights, carried a knife,
was inattentive and mischievous
in the class-room, and truanted
on many occasions. When he
came to the attention of the
Court, he was referred to the
Clinic. It was found that he had
only the intelligence and under-
standing of a boy 8 years and
2 months old, when actually he
was 11 years and 6 months old.
He was then in the fifth grade
in school, which was too high for
his capabilities. As a result, he
been rebelling against his in-
n-
ability
ability to gain any satisfaction
out of class-room work, which
took the form of conduct out-.
lined above. Leo's problem was
discussed with the school, and he
was placed in the grade where he
was capable of doing the work,
and has since ceased to be a
problem.
The Rev. L. M. Birkhead, na-
tional director of the Friends of
Democracy, is doing a swell job
in his ruthless exposure of Nazi
and Fascist organizations in this
country.
