ANTHRoPOLoGIsT DECLARES
THERE is NO HEBREW RACE
DR.. Maurice Fishberg Makes State
ment Before the American
chronological Society.

NEW YORK, Jan. 27-At a joint meet
ing of the American chronological Society
and the New York Academy of Sciences
DR.. Maurice Fishburg, well-known an
thropologist, delivered an address, in
which he made the declaration that there
was no such thing as a Hebrew race, and
that Hebrews were not descended from
Abraham. Isaac and Jacob, but were in
reality Armenians.
THE Aryans,' he said, were. up to
quite recently, considered to be a race on
account of their linguistic affinities. al
though in the light of modern anthro-
biological researches we know that there
is no such thing an Aryan race
After citing opinions on the origin of
the Semites, DR.. Fishberg advanced the
theory that they were differentiated from
other races in Africa and not in Asia as
was generally believed to be the case, and
reviewed the physical characteristics of
ancient and modern Semites.

should be given of the continuance OF contributions
required for the work and the assurance should be

doubts as to the efficiency of the movement. Those
who were sanguine last year can now justify their
faith by the proof OF things accomplished and those
who were then more or1ess incredulous of good can
now rejoice that their fears were groundless Thus
those who were either hopeful or doubtful last year
can now with full confidence increase their subscrp
tions and help to make the work more successful still
1t is the intention of the committee to publish list
