Senator Rayner Of Maryland
thought he said a very bright thing
when he intimated In his speech Of
criticism of the President last week
that the President could not look at a
trap without fooling with the spring.
Subsequent events have served to take
some Of the edge off the witticism Of
Senator Rayner. Instead Of fooling
with the spring the President calmly
walked away from the trap and incl
dentally did little trapping on his
own account.
OF course the story of the negotia-
tions with the democrats by the Presi-
dent, Mr.. Chandler, former senator
from New Hampshire, acting as inter-
mediary, is true. The President did
negotiate with the democrats by proxy
and he continued to carry on these
negotiations until he came across the
trap.
Saw Aldrich's Hand.
When the President discovered that
Senator Aldrich was figuring in the
deal, and hand in glove with Bailey,
he suddenly brought the negotiations
to close, in fact he dropped the<whole
matter SO abruptly that the dull thud"
may still be heard echoing about the
capitol building.
The mere fact that Aldrich was in
conference with Bailey during the per-
iod when the President was seeking to
devise plan whereby the republicans
who favored the Dolliver-Hepb bill
and the democrats could get together,
would be sufficient to cause Mr.. Roose.

The Jewish outlook., 1906-07-20
From Eastern Resorts

New London, Conn.
Editor of the Jewish Outlook, Denver
My Dear Mr.. Editor: Your request
for letters from resorts of the East
found me at Arverne, Long Island,
where Jewish news should be plentiful,
for it is a veritable New Zion. Does not
this summer colony, consisting, l am told,
of ten thousand Jews, seem to indicate
that coming events may cast their shad-
ows before them, and also offer a pos
sible solution of the Jewish problem!
Arverne is the proud possessor OF
beautiful new synagogue, which is pre-
sided over in the old orthodox fashion
by Rabbi Nieto of New York. A large
number of Russians are Summerlng IN
Arverne Their children are remark
ably good looking, decidedly American,
and very well behaved. These people be-
long largely to the immigrants OF the
last twenty-five or thirty years. They
have amassed competence and are en-
joying the fruits Of their labors. | most
respectfully doff my hat to them
| was surprised to find that upper
Madison avenue, in New York, is entirely
settled by Russians. Who says they re-
main huddled together on the lower East
S1QC! 1\OU dU dll. OlNc Uuclu d ClloASS:
in fact, they will take the chance and
show their progressiveness.
At Arverne l had the pleasure OF meet
ing Judge Newburger Of the Supreme
Court of New York. He is man OF
great human sympathies, and though 1t
must be written against HIM that he IS
a bachelor, he has taken into his heart
the thousand children of the Hebrew Or
phan asylum and gives them the best that
is in him. He is an enthusiastic lover OF
his people and when he said to me: We
have had great victory to-day in hav-
ing defeated the portion of the immigra-
ton bill that would have excluded thou
sands of Russian Jews | thought 1.-THE
remnant that saves" still lives in Israel
The willingness with which our breth-
ren assume the burdens Of their op-
pressed co-religionists is one of the Won
derful signs of the times.
Mrs. Esther Ruskay is also summer
ing in Arverne. She is writing book Of
The Jewish outlook., 1906-07-20

10 p/ q pr.
Jewish stories which she hopes soon to
publish. Mrs. Ruskay was one of the
earliest and ablest workers in the Coun-
Gil of Jewish Women, but unfortunately
she has joined the ranks Of those who are
no longer heard in the councils of the
Council
Rabbis Rudolph Grossman of New
York and M. p. jacobson of Shreveport
are also colonists Of Arverne.
Judge Mayer Sulzberger has appointed
his committee Of fifteen. 1t strikes me
that it is just little "clcky' There
seems to be a tendency to narrow down
all Jewish problems into the keeping of
certain few.
The National Conference of Jewish
Charities is in danger Of adopting the
same policy. Let them all broaden out
it is the only safe plan.
1 noticed the absence of many of the
rabbs at the Philadelphia conference
Their presence had added much interest
to previous conferences. One Of our
greatest and most brilliant rabbis, who
came to attend the National Conference
Of Charities and Correction said in an
swer to a question from me, 'We rabbis
are not wanted in the Jewish confer
ence." Can it be possible that this feel
ing exists? If so, it is most deplorable.
Here in New London it is calm and
quiet. The place is old and quaint and
the name ''New" London seems para
doxical. People do not come here to show
off magnificent clothes they seem to
be just quiet people who love nature and
delight in the restfulness of old Mother
Earth s beauty spots and that reminds
me that the Society for Ethical Culture
has started a new cemetery in which
the old Jewish law is to be observed.
Every grave is to be marked alike with
modest headstone, one next to the other
in the order in which they die. Felix Ad-
dler has not forgotten the lessons Of his
fathers
Wouldn't t be well for us all to 60 back
just little and bring back some of their
lessons-not only in DEATH but in life?
have the honor, my dear Mr.. Editor,
to subscribe myself, your very obedient
servant.

Australia and Oceanica " SO i
The 1929 immigrants from Great
Britain are, of course, not natives of that
country. They would not be speaking
Yiddish if they were. They are Jews
from the east of Europe who have halted
for time in Great Britain before resllm-
ing their journey to the United States.
The same is true Of the immigrants from
Germany and France.
The increased immigration in compar-
ison with that of the preceding year is
to be ascribed to the exodus from Russia.
In 1904 the immigration from Russia
was only n ,544, or 5000 less than dur
ing 1904-5 The IA ,299 immigrants from
Great Britain should here be included.
In 1904 there were scarcely 1000 from
Great Britain. On the other hand the
immigration from Roumania and Aus
tria-Hungary has decreased from that Of
the preceding year by about $500 and
5000 Jews respectively.
Classified according to age, 2S,553
were below the age of IA 95, 1854 between
IA and As 6,393 over As.
Of those above IA years of age 22,77O
could neither read nor write S07 could
read but not write.
The whole amount OF money exhibited
by all the immigrants was 81 ,S24,6 ,617, or
$14 per head. OF the heads of families
7O91 possessed more than $50 each, 59,-
319 less than $50 each 2,69S of the Jew
ish immigrants had been in the United
States before.
There were excluded by the immigra-
ton officers 1,695 Jews, for the follow
ing causes:
Insufficient means .......... ,2OS
Contagious diseases ~ 1853
Other causes ............ 154
The Jewish immigrants were distrib-
uted in the following states:
New York ............ s3,724
Pennsylvania ... 13,477
Massachusetts .. 9,O97
Illinois $3.50
New Jersey .. 1926
Maryland .. 1916
Ohio 2,169
Connecticut .. 2,O44
Missouri . 1,4S3
The remaining states received less than
1000 each.
