quently held that the men of wealth
want to muzzle the pulpit In an edi-
toria on this subject recently it had
the following to say:
"The fact of the matter is, just be-
tween ourselves, that the wealthy man,
instead of planning how he can muzzle
the preacher, often goes home from
church wondering why the man in the
pulpit talked so feebly and generally OF
psychology, the modern spirit and the
beauties of good nature instead of tell
ing him he was lax and cowardly and
ease loving in the field of his higher
duties and warning him to quit his
meanness and remember there is 1t
God in Israel"
This is an entirely new view of the
subject, and should give the minister
new courage. The wealthy man wants
to be told his errors and shortcomings
He feels good under the lambasting of
his moral and religious guide. No
rpuzziing of pulpits for him. He de-
sires speech to be free and spurns the
placing of an embargo on the utter
ances of his minister Now go ahead,

STUDY JEWS OF TURKEY.

A report from Constantinople states
that Mrs. Oscar S. Straus, wife of the
American ambassador to Turkey, in
tends to make personal investigation
of the leading Jewish communities or
Turkey Mrs Straus, who is interest
ed in a large number of Jewish or
CARNATIONS and institutions in this
country, says that she desires to make
thorough study of the economic con-
ditions of the Jewish people in the
Ottoman Empire. AS an officer of the
Council of Jewish Women of this
country and as worker for the several
temple Sisterhoods and for the homes
for girls and other charitable and
philanthropic institutions of this city,
Mrs Straus has always shown her in
terest in the unfortunate of her race,
and now that she finds herself again
in another land she has discovered
there new sphere of activity among
the poor of her people.
With the growth of the Jewish set
Elements in Constantinople, Salonica,
Smyrna, and other cities the problems
of the Jewish poor and of those lack
ing educational facilities has become
more noticeable than it has during
Mrs. Straus' previous sojourns in
Turkey, and with the aid of the en-
lightened regime she has found new
opportunities to aid the Jewish people
Mrs Straus has always shared with her
husband his strong interest in Jews
living under favorable conditions in ali
parts of the world.

DIR. FRIEDENWALD TELLS OF
ZIONIST PROGRESS.

At meeting of the executive com
mittee of the Federation of American
Zionists, Dr. Harry Friedenwald, the
president, who has just returned from
an extended trip abroad, reported many
matters pertaining to the progress of
the Zionist movement. He had met
many of the Zionist leaders abroad and
found the prospects of the movement
to be very favorable. He spoke of the
preparations that are being made for
the international Zionist Congress,
which is to be held in Hamburg in De-
cember.
The meeting discussed several plans
of the Zionist organization, with a
view of increasing the propaganda.
Confirmation has been made by the
Zionist actions committee in Cologne,
Germany, of the recent news that Tur-
key would permit 10000 Jews to settle
in Palestine.

DOES THE WEALTHY MAN DE-
SIRE TO MUZZLE THE
PULPIT?

We have been hearing considerable
lately about the muzzling Of the pull
pit. 1t has gone abroad that certain
rabbi refused to accept the pulpit of
the wealthiest congregation in the
country because the officers declared
that the pulpit belonged to the board of
trustees and the board of trustees con-
sidered political subjected tabooed in
wise and he refused to accept the
offer that was made him, because full
freedom was denied him We believe
that there are very few pulpits in the
synagogue which are not entirely free.
There may be few parnass bosses in
the smaller communities who like to
show their authority and dictate to the
rabbi what he is and what he is not to
preach. We heard of such an instance
lately in which a young rabbi was
asked not to preach sermons bearing
on Christianity or upon Kosher and
nefah The young man was not to
be dictated to and he told the Off
GERS that the pulpit was his own and
he proposed to treat of such subjects
as he felt vital to the we'll being of his
congregation, and there is no doubt he
will do so, despite the opinion of the
officers of his congregation. The re-
strictions are, of course, more severe
in the Christian churches. If the min
lister gets away from the doctrines OF
the church, the church will get after
him, denounce him as hereto and
make short shift of him.
But we do not refer so much to doc
trinal points as we do to live moral
and social problems touching the life
of the individual and the community.
Need the preacher fear if he talks out
on socio-e economic questions, on the
questions of capital and labor, on in
dustrial disputes, on strikes and lock-
outs and such like? Labor Day has
just been celebrated, and this was the
occasion for number of pulpits max
