judicial powers. The commission was
not established as a court; there was
no provision in the act requiring the

of the commission have been enlarged
by Legislative enactment since then,

commission some of the powers of a
court, but its character has not materi-

The fact that from the organization

that the people have not regarded the

is done to the corporations.

THE HEBREW PASSOVER
Instituted to Commemorate
the Departure Of the
Children of Israel
from Egypt.
The PesaCh Feast Continues fer
Eight Days, But Only the First
and Last Days are CeIe~
bFatGd as Holy Days.
Special to THE ARGUS

New York, April 17-Jewish people
throughout the world are today cele-
brating the Hebrew Feast of Pesach,
or the Passover. This festival, which
is also known as the Feast of Unleav
ened Bread, was institu ted to COM
memorate the departure of the Chill
dren OF Israel from Egypt, under the
leadership Of Moses, where they had
been held in bondage for upward OF
400 years.
The reformed Jews, we'll as the
orthodox Jews, who adhere religiously
to all the wonderful symbolism and
ritual watch make Jewish worship
picturesque and beautiful, observe the
Passover feast, which means more to
the Jew than any other of his religious
celebrations. The reformed Jews do
not adhere so closely to all the SYM
bolism of the celebration, but their OBJ
servances differ only in that they are
not so elaborate.
The feature of the celebration is the
substitution of unleavened cakes, or
matzos, prepared for the purpose, for
bread in the household OF the ortho odox
Hebrews. Each year, as Passover
approaches, thousands of pounds of
matzos are baked for the occasion, and
it is estimated that in the upper east
side alone more than 10000 matzos
are required for the poor families The
annual sale for the bakeries through
out the city is so large that it reg uires
large moving vans to take them to the
various points of distribution. This is
not surprising when the fact is borne
in mind that New York City contains
more Jewish inhabitants than any
other half dozen cities of the world
combined.
The night ushering in the Passover
festival is known as "Seder" night.
and is made the occasion of family
gathering devoted to special service
around the supper table, which is
decked out in a peculiar manner with
matzos and other accessories Incl
dental to the feast. Gathered around
the table, the "H agadah" is read and
recited.
Inc Hagauan cOuLdiIS nara
tive of the deliverance of the Jews from
their Egyptian bondage as set forth in
the Bible, and is read by the head OF
the household, either in the original
Hebrew or as an English translation.
The other members of the family join
in the responses or in the singing of
hymns of praise and thanksgiving to
their Divine liberator.
The Pesach Feast continues for eight
days, but only the first and last days
are celebrated as holy days. In the
large number of Hebrew synagogues
in Greater New York, both reformed
and orthodox, services were held this
morning and sermons appropriate to
the occasion were preached.
