He used to hear of Jews being black-balled in the club only for the reason that socially they didn't have the right start. Not that black-balled Mr. Zilch was found to be a bad character, or was dishonorable in business dealings or beat his wife, or was guilty of any of the other vices to which the human species is heir. Zilch wasn't taken into the club because his father was an immigrant and a peddler once. These observations have re- mained sharply with the gentle- man even unto now They have `:,ecome more vivid in these times when Jews suffer so acutely the discriminations so disgraceful to a democratic country.

New Ruling Hinted On Palestine Quota LONDON (Palcor) — The sit- uation in May, when the remain- der of certificates under the White Paper will be exhausted, "requires and is being given the carefullest consideration, but we aren't able to make an announce- ment today," Viscount Cran- bourne, Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs, declared in re- ply to an impassioned appeal by Lord Strabolgi for the opening of the doors of Palestine to the surviving remnants of European Jewry. "The quota allowed by the White Paper was not yet ex- hausted," Viscount Cranbourne said, adding that "the rate of 1,500 admissions a month could not be raised, because Palestine is suffering from a housing shortage and economic condi- tions which do not allow for an increase of immigrants." Right now some Jews are en- route to Palestine following an agreement .between the Govern- ment and the Jewish Agency. "The refugee problem is not mainly Jewish," Viscount Cran- bourne said, "no one denies that the miseries of war bore down on the Jewish race harder than on others, but it would be wrong to think we could deal with the Jews as separate from other dis7 placed persons." Public examinations are now being held in the United Hebrew Schools to which parents and board members are invited. Chil- dren are tested in the Bible, Hebrew Janguage and Jewish his- tory. In the David W. Simons School an examination was held Feb. 4 in Abraham Twe•sky's class. Last Sunday, Feb. 11, tests were given in Joseph Hag- gai's classes. This Sunday exam- ination will be held in Abraham Schacter's classes. Examinations will also be held in the follow- ing classes: Mrs. Samuel Lehr- man, Mrs. Rose Pfeifer and Ed- ward Rubenfein. In the Philadelphia - Byron School examinations will be held this Sunday, and Feb. 25 in the following classes: Miss Leah Pike, Miss Rose Pike, Louis Pan- ush and Max Gordon. J. Cash- dan's Talmud class will have its examination March 4. With the beginning of the new semester new pupils will be ad- mitted to all classes in the Unit- ed Hebrew School system. An hour has been added to the morning pre-kindergarten classes. They will meet from 9:30 a. m. to 12:30 p. In, in the Rose Sittig Cohen and David W. Simons schools. Children who live west of the Philadelphia-Byron School be- tween Twelfth and Dexter are provided with bus transportation.
