A French scientist has invented q
process for producing a substance call
ed "molten wood"

dlstillation and high pressure whereby
the escape Of gases is prevented. After
cooling the mass resembles coal, except
that it is without organic structure. 1t

ed. 1t is said to be Il perfect noncon-
ductor OF electricity.

namely the organization of Austrian
Jcwry. whose in unitypower will lie
and whose object will be the protection
of those citizens of the state who are
subjected to attack or who labour un

One hundred and fifty communities
were represented, and, in addition to
the official delegates. the Jewish men,
bcrs Of parlimcnt. Dr. Gudemann, the
Chief rabbi. and nearly all the other
Rabbis of Vienna were present. The
conference lasted two days: it was pre-

RUSSIA

An interesting debate has taken
place at one of the meetings of the
Duma Committee on Recruiting. The
members of the Extreme Right have
found an excellent opportunity there
of coming forward with their scheme
of excluding the Jews from the army,
as highly obnoxious and dangerous
element Instead of their services
they proposed fine or the imposition
of any kind of compulsory labour.
The Right have expressed approval of
the project of the Real Russians
Their spokesman drew the attention
of the members to the fact that Jews
served in all European armies, and
that, by virtue of their attachment to
one another, it could hardly be eX-
pected of Jewish soldier of one cOun-
try to fight his brother of another
land.
NJ. Krupensky, on behalf of the
MOderates. also agreed with the pre-
viOus speakers that the Jews ought TO
be excluded from the army or given
the option of abstaining from military
service. "It is unjust" he said. ''to
fine the relatives of the missing re-
cr,lits for their (the recruits ) faults,
and yet the Jews must necessarily
hate the service as they are unable to
observe their Sabbath. and they can
not obtain kosher food in camp. Many

the Real Russians have announced
that they will raise it again in the

Inmates.
The Opposition parties, which arc
not represented on the Committee at
all. are taking steps to oppose the pro-
position of the Real Russians in the
Duma. They recognize in it an at
tempt to force on the Jews the position
of foreigners, in order to justify the

of the government to the fact that
no less than $4,000 Jews served in the

corps comprised large numbers of
Jews. They will also contrast the po-
sition of the Jewish soldier in Russia
to that of the other European States
