Passport Question
is Breach of Treaty,
Asserts Rabbi OOhn

The Russo-AmericRn passport question
IS purely an American issue, even though
II is Of vital interest to members Of
Jewish faith" said Rabbi Frederick
Cohn last night at the Temple Israel
When the Russian government refused
to abide by the terms Of the treaty made
With America, by violating the passport
clause; refusing to allow American
citizens freedom in Russia because they
are members of the Jewish faith by this
violation they have invalidated the
treaty. and the United States government
should take decisive action. II it does
not II is an admission that American
statesmen are inferior to the Russians,
for their very submission in the face of
the breach Of faith indicates that they
are allowing the Russian officials TO say
who shall constitute the citizenship Of
the United States,
Russian officials have sneered at
American laws; they have openly ignored
American requests, and as they have
never been brought up with a round turn
OF course they will go one step farther
and exclude American citizens from Rus
STA merely because they are Jews. II
is an American question and should be
settled at once. but the American Jews
are not the ones TO settle it. II is up
to the American statesmen 10 protect the
rights Of the citizens they represent. Few
Jews who after renouncing the old coun-
try and becoming Anne. icanlzed ever
want to go back to Europe, but as long as
an agreement exists allowing them the
nrivilpua that aupaement should ha rar
ried out and IL one Of the contracting
countries breaks its agreement, then im-
mediate action OF some sort should be
taken"

heard by several hundred persons, among
whom were many prominent Omaha
Jewish business men who have con-
siderable political influence. Although

hundreds in the slSyscraper which has a
population during business hours Of equal
to that of a small city, but the panic

They complain of governmental

Of Notifications at the Isthmus of

They return to the subject, and
they are told that the conservation
Of natural resources accompanied

They object to high railroad rates
and unjust preferences and
they are asked to consider a
subsidy for the encourag ement of

They insist upon the establish
mennt of parcels post, and the
beauties Of a United States bank
are unfolded to them.
They call for the election of
United States senator's by popular
vote and new scheme of spelling
reform is proposed.
They ask for an income tax, and
they get a service pension for old
soldiers.
They urge the prosecution of
trusts and monopolies, and four
new battleships are Immediately
prescribed for them.
They groan under the high
prices of food and clothing, and
the answer is that next year when
we shall have nothing to do but

the time TO attend to the matter.

the people use do not control the

SUGGEST REMEDIES FOR
EVIL CONDITIONS

Cathedral s.. Peter and Paul,
chairman of the Chicago vice
commission, and President A. w.
Harris, of the Northwestern Uni
versity, a member of the commits
sion, in. addresses yesterday,
urged, through ! different chan
nels, remedies for the evil condi-
lions obtaining in the city,
President Harris, speaking at
the First Presbyterian church of
Evanston, said:
THE vice question in Chicago
is a child problem. Many women
who enter lives of shame start at
tender age. Conditions pertain

the start, although the small
wages paid to clerks in depart

causes that leads to the downfall
of girls. 2
I'm America we spend millions
of dollars for the protection of la
Dor, but very little is spent for the
protection of the por girls forced
to work for a living.
ct seems outrageous that the
people of Chicago should stand
Indifferent to the terrible condi-
tons. There are in the city over
5000 women living lives of
shame. The profits from this
terrible business amount to $15,-
100000 year. Then you will be-
gin to realize what the conditions
really are.
