SIMON WOLF VIGOROUS
AT The AGE OF II
Observing Birthday Anniversary, Law
yer and Author Defends the
Jews in Russia.
ADVISES READING OF THE BIBLE

The passing OF the seventy-seyentli
milestone OF his life was quietly OBJ
served yesterday by Simon Wolf. author.
diplomat. aud lawyer. at his home IN
this city. Mr.. Wolf took occasion to de-
fend the Jews In Russia, and stated that
for the last twenty years about 500oe
Jews had come to this country from Rus
sis because OF persecution in that coun-
try.
Mr.. Wolf advised people to read the Bible
more. but said that IL should not be in
troduced into the schools as the teachers
would be apt to give their own interpre-
tations.
AS an officer Of the B.nai Birth and
other Jewish organisations Mr. Wolf has
come into contact with every President
of this country since James Buchanan.
He has been an indefatigable worker
against the caricaturing and defamlng
of the Jew on the stage. having been a
member OF the executive committee OF
the Anti-Defamaticn League for some
time.
Mr.. Wolf intends to write of his ex,
Ieriences while In Turkey. His Seven
Immortals of American Political His
tory" is well known.
Mr.. Wolf has been a continuous resi-
dent. of the District since he was small
boy. He came to this country from
Bavaria with his parents when twelve
years of age, going to Cleveland, Ohio.
for short time. and then coming to
Washington. Like many other prom
inent persons Mr.. Wolf grows younger
instead of older, and predicts when his
birthday rolls around next year that he
Will be a year younger than this year.

RATE ON LEMONS UPHELD.
Question of Freight Charges Ar
-ued Before Supreme Court.

The reasonableness of the rate of 81
per hundred on lemons from California
to the Atlantic Seaboard was upheld in
an argument made before the Supreme
Court of the United States yesterday
by Blackburn Esterline, special assist
ant to the Attorney General The In
terstate Commerce Commission reduced
the rate from $1.I5 to 81. The rate
was upheld by the Commerce Court.
and is now being attacked in the Su-
preme Court by interested railroads.
The railroads have asserted that the
81 rate was fixed to permit competition
between California and Sicilian lemons.
and declared that this invalidated the
order of the commission Mr.. Ester
line declared that this question had
been eliminated. He said that the rea-
sonableness OF the 81 rate is a ques-
tion Of fact foreclosed by the findings
Of the commission. and denied that the
rate is confiscatory or in violation of
the due process clause of the Consti-
tuition.
William E. Lamb, counsel for the
California fruit growers and shippers,
contended that the commission had not
exceeded it's jurisdiction in lowering
the rate to 81.

trict Delegate Association, yesterday re-
eeived letter from Samuel Gompers.

Labor. in which Mr.. Gompers pledges his
hearty personal support, as well as the
support of the federation for the cam
paign.
Mr.. p, J. Ryan. speaking for the Gen.
tral Labor Union. stated that while the
Federal constitution reserves the right
of Jurisdiction over the District by Con-
gress, does not provide that the people
of the District should be deprived Of a
voice in their government and represent
tation in Congress.
Commissioner Newman has invited Roy
c. Clafiin, chairman of the District
Delegate Association, to confer with him
regarding the proposal for a District
delegate in Congress.
Mr.. CIafiin feels that delegate should
be granted the District before any gen.
eral plan of reform is laid before Con-
gress. so that the desires Of the people
OF Washington can be a factor in the
molding Of reform legislation. thus as
suring the people of the District some
voice in the decision of what shall be
their exact form of government.
