with railroad work now going on. The
survey for the extension of the Elgin

SIMON WOLF TALKS OF THE MATTER
Says Letter to President Roosevelt
Was Addressed to the Individual
and Not to the Chief
Executive.

WASHINGTON, Nov. IO.-The mass meet
ing held this afternoon to adopt relief
measures for the Jews in, Russia is non
sectarian and is held in pursuance of an
appeal to Treasurer Schif, OF the National
Relief committee in New York, to raise
money for that purpose.
Simon Wolf, former president Of the
B'nai Birth society, said today regarding
his letter Of appeal TO the president:
My letter to Presidet Roosevelt is not to
be regarded as a direct appeal to the gov
eminent to interfere in the internal affairs
OF Russia. President Roosevelt has per-
sonal side He possesses a power and In
duence wholly apart and distinct from that
which Is vested in him as the chief magi-
strate of the United States. .... t
When he settled the coal strike he made
II clear to all that he was acting on his
own responsibility and at his own violition.
The same was true of the part he played
at the Portsmouth peace conference.
Knowing and realizing these facts, 1
have therefore, taken the liberty of writing
this letter TO him in the hope that he may
be able through the force of his own strik-
ing personality, genius, talents and power,
TO bring about some concert OF action on
the part OF men as great as himself to put
an end TO the massacre of the Jews In
Russia.
The situation Of the Jews in Russia, is
indeed terrible, thing that almost failed
TO realize at the outset I have, within the
past twenty-four hours or so, come to
realize that the massacres are deep and
WILLARD plans of the bureaucrats TO
throttle liberalism in Russia, Just as Mil
iukom predicted months ago.
