THE WISH TLOOK
SATURDAY, july 4, 1908.

The Conference celebrated the
Sabbath with a beautiful service of
song and prayer. Mrs. II. Moses of
Cincinnati generously offered her
services as soloist, while the responses
were rendered with fervor and spirit
by the members of the Conference.
Rabbi Greenberg of Dallas. Texas,
was the preacher of the day.
On Saturday night the annual ban
quent of the alumni was held. At the
business meeting which preceded this
feast of good fellowship, the Alumni
decided to raise a large sum of money
for tie purpose of aiding INDECENT
and worthy students in their first
years attendance at the Hebrew
Union College. 1t was decided that
this was the most fitting manner OF
celebrating the event recently accen-
tuated in Cincinnati, viz: the silver
anniversary of the first graduation of
the Hebrew Union College.
An announcement was made that
Mr.. l. NJ. Altheimer sent to the pres
ident of the Conference an unsolicited
donation of one hundred dollars to
be applied to the superannuated min
listers fund. Mr.. Althcimer was
present at the opening session of the
Conference, and was moved to this
generous and graceful act by listen
ing to the recommendation in this re-
gard of President Philipson in his
message. The members of the Con-
ferance to man have voiced their
appreciation not only of the gener-
osity of Mr.. Altheimer's gift, but of
the graceful spirit in which it was
rendered, and feel that it will be an
example to others TO interest them
selves in II cause which should appeal
to every thoughtful man in American

Jews are a cultural community. Jew
1sh morality and ethics make him law
abiding and law-respecting. Consid.
ering what he has suffered at the
hands of so-called Christians and I'm.
der a would-be Christian morality, il
is not surprising that he is not more
criminal than he is, that he is not, in
short, all-criminal. His greatest
crime is against himself and his re-
ligion, he is not an individual of vio-
lence and mob law or mob rule.
When there is an attempt to re-
strict alien immigration, the cry is at
once raised that alien crime. whereby
is largely meant Jewish crime, de-
mands it. An example Of such in
vidiOus prejudice is that of Police
Commissioner Bingham of New York,
who recently exaggerated and aggra-
waited the amount of Jewish crime on
the part of alien Russo-Jcwish
refugees. which charge has been dis
proven by statistics. He provided
llarper's week. Y with the information
that out of two thousand pictures in
the New York Rogue gallery. twelve
hundred represented Russian-Jcwish
criminals. whereas the court records
prove that out of 4.5S3 indictments
but 666 were Jews. of whom eighty
six were acquitted. Records prove
that the percentage of Jewish Grim
inals is far less in proportion than
that of the non-Jewish population,
and below the average. Furthermore
il is proven that the percentage of
criminals among the Jewish immi-
grants is lower than among Jewish
children who have grown up on the
streets of New York 1t must further
be told that many indictments were
not actual crimes. such as the break
ing of some street police regulation

inality has not lowered two per cent,

rule that the general desire is to fat
ten the figures which will reflect ad-
vcrscly on the Jews. and it is only
proper that these malicious lies should
be at once nailed There is. however,
danger of Jews aSsimiatlng crime
from their surroundings. and this
fact places upon us IA great response
bility and grave obligation which
We must shoulder. For the most part
Jewish crime is IA negligible quantity,
and we must endeavor to make the
percentage less than it is today, and
prevent its increase. Here is some

Various business reports were read
and approved. following which Dr.
Max Heller of New Orleans read a
sympathetic and comprehensive pa
per on Samson Raphael Hirsch, the
pioneer of neO-OrthOdoXy. in honor
of the centenary of his birth. The
paper was discussed at length by Drs
X. Kohler of Cincinnati. and Martin
a. Meyer of Brooklyn. a suggestive
and profitable evening was spent in
the discussion of two subjects. one
presented by Rabbi Fineschreiber on
"The Rabbits Problems in Smaller
Communities, and the other by
Rabbi Newfield of Birmingham, Ala

discussion of the former subject. it

address to the duties of his calling
The second subject brought out the
fact that while twenty-five years ago
it was almost unhcard of that the
Rabbi should take active part in the
work of Jewish and non-Jcwish fra
tornal organizations. today it is eX-
tremely uncommon for the spiritual
leaders of Jewish communities to hold
themselves aloof from this activity.
FRIDAY MORNING. july 3. 1908.
The session opened with prayer by
Rabbi Rauch of Sioux City. Iowa.
The report of the committee on con-
temporaneous Jewish history and
card index was received. Prof. G.
Dcutsch. the chairman. asked that the
committee be discharged. and ar
rangements made that the work al
ready done be protected from loss,
since it represented, however incom-
plete it may be, the work of years
This first request in its compliance
was found to be unconstitutional.
The report of the committee on har-
monization of Mosaic and modern
marriage laws was received. and af-
ter reconstruction was given further
time.
DR.. X. Kohler rendered Il report on
the Geiger Centenary in which ap-
pointed members of the Conference
were to collabOrate with European
scholars in the production of memo
rial volume worthy of the great Jew
ish Reformer.
The paper of the day was a scholar
ly presentation of the significance of
the Bible for Reform Judaism in the
Light of Modern Scientific Research.
A prolonged and eloquent discussion
followed, bringing out many diver
gent views. The sum of the discus
sion which was ably led by Rabbis

sentiment of the Conference does not

LONG IS
WARMLY GREETED
IN HIS new POST
Receives Many Beautiful Floral
! Tributes from Old and New
Associates.

Captain Michael Long. who was
transferred Monday by the police COM
m~issioners from the night detective bu-
reau to the Fifth Precinct, entered up
on his new duties today and received a
cordial reception from the men with
whom he will be associated in his new
charge.
Captain Long paid a visit to the Fifth
Precinct yesterday afternoon and found
awaiting his arrival a %profusion of
floral offerings, including a horseshoe,
from the policemen and ranking officers
of the Fifth Precinct; a large palm.
surrounded by a profusion of beautiful
flowers, the gil: of Thomas A. Blaney
and Attorney j.. Randolph Woodruff.
and a horseshoe from Sergeant Patrick
Ryan, with whom Captain Long was
associated in the detective beureau.
At rollcall last night Sergeant Nee
han. in behalf Of the members of the
detective bureau, presented their former
associate with an immense floral horse
shoe. Captain Long thanked the men
in a neat speech and then settled down
to his new duties with characteristic
vigor. To an EVENING STAR re-
porter he stated today that he had no
changes in view at the present time,
either in the personnel of his staff or in
the method of conducting affairs of the
precinct.

PERSONAL TAX OF
NEWARK HOLDS Up
THE STATE BOARD
Ask for Explanation of Differ
ence of Millions from Last
Year.
NET FIGURES SHOW DROP
OF ALMOST 100000
Decrease Explained as Caused
by New Method of
Assessing.

When the figures for Newark's per-
sonal tax-ratables were considered yes
terday by the State Board for the
Equalization of Taxes at the weekly
meeting in Trenton, the difference be-
tween last years figures and this were
SO great that the State Board decided
to ask an explanation from the Essex
county board.
This was given today, with the in
formation that the statement before
the State Board was correct. The
county board informed the State Of
ficials that the differences were due
to new methods in making up the state
ment. The apparent discrepancy caused
a days delay in progress on the State
boards report.
The amount of personal taxation re-
turned this year by the city of New
ark shows a value of 1888, $3.50, O49, with
1922, ia, S12 sworn off as not taxable.
This leaves $40, 315, 1877 of personal tax
ables.
Last year the total amount returned
was $51, SIS, 061, with deductions sworn
off of 50, Sal, 312, leaving the personal
taxables as $40, 173, 742, an increase over
| this year of $S,S58, 005.
1t appears that last year the city tax
board made original assessments on
what was considered the assessable
| value of personal property. This year
the system was adopted of taking the
real value of all personal property and
,deducting the total of debt and untax-
able items from the grand total.
The decrease of almost s9,COO,000 in
the net personal taxables this year Is
considered reasonable in view of the
operation of the new law emitting bank
stocks from taxation.
Governor Fort yesterday had occa-
sion 10 secure some information re-
garding the report of the State board,
presumably in connection with the
preparation of his first annual mes
sage to- the Legislature, and this
brought about a meeting in his office
with Major Carl Lentz. president of the
State board. This was only the second
time that the two men have been to-
gether since the Governors e.oction.
Their personal relations are said to be
considerably strained.

She bought Great Northern preferred
