 By their manly action in taking q position that no compromise will be tolerated on equality of treatment the American Jew: have 1ot only won re- spect for themselves in Russ a, but they have probably paved the way for similar victories for English, French and German Jews said Dr. Frisc,1. Our co-religionists in these foreign countries are also suffering humlil- t on at the hands of Russia such as the American Jew was recently sub jected to. But as result of the triumph of our citizens of the Jew ish faith a general movement has been set on foot in the three coun- tries mentioned which will no doubt achieve unilrpaired equality for their G tizens. to.
