Actor Offers Theater. ~
Jacob Adler, Hebrew actor, has
offered the use of Adler's Grand Street
theater on any night Mr.. Jerome desires
to have it for a mass meeting. At the
end of the play last night Mr.. Adler
urged his audience to vote for the one
honest man who. was running for OF;
flee, and his hearers jumped up and
shouted " Jerome, Jerome! - 49,. >.
Mr.. Adler's offer is based upon the
war which Mr.. Jerome waged against
the "cadet' system existing in the
Ghetto and on the East Side generally
when he began his official term foul
years ago.
Pat Sheedy for Jerome.
"I have studied human nature fo1
