Rome when the temple was sacked and
destroyed by the troops of its pagan
emperor. Where are those nations
now?" she asked. Where are those
prosecutors of our forefathers? Their
pomp and glory have vanished forever,
yet the Jews have gone forward and
their influence today is greater than
ever by virtue of their contributions to
the uplift. not only of their own race,
but to common humanity"
She stated the order B'nai Birth was
doing a great and noble work and that
their object was truly commendable,
but that they would achieve greater
and more lasting influence by joining
with the women in their charitable
work, 'for the ladies of all creeds are
running the charities"
She closed by a tender appeal to the
Jewish women to always live to the
standard established by their forebears
and to always safeguard and cherish
the home and set standard the world
might emanate in the high ideals that
are the heritage of every Jewish wom-
an. She was given great ovation at
the close of her address.

.DEC[ ARES HE HAS

Labor Leader Explains Po-
sitiOn in Hotel
Strike

Lawrence, Mass, January 12.-Declaring
that he had been misunderstood in re-
ports of a talk made to striking hotel
employees of New York last Friday right.
Joseph j. Ettor. labor leader, made yub-
lie tonight a letter he has written to the
hotel workers to explain his position.
httor was quoted as saying TO the hotel
workers:
IF you are compelled to go back under
unsatisfactory conditions, go back with
your minds made up that it is the un-
safest thing in the world for the capi-
talist to eat food prepared by members
of your union"
Ettor says in his letter: 81 did not
make the remarks alleged, nor do 1 be-
lieve the suggestion they (newspapers)
claim, can be taken out of my talk, is a
policy that advise you to follow, FOR
am satisfied that the course they snsin-
uate and attribute to me would not bring
success, but the opposite. Your cause is
not to be won by any policy that endan-
gers human life''
Arturo Giovannitti. who with Ettor. was
acquitted at the trial which followed the
Lawrence textile strike declared in
speech at a strikers meeting tonight that
he knew Ettor did not intend in his re-
cent platform remarks to advise any one
to poison food.
The walters of Paris did not have to
poison food" said Giovanniti. ''rhey just
put in a handful of salt instead of a
pinch so that nobody could eat the food.
I'VE are not fighting millionaire diners
or any other diners. we are fighting the
Motel proprietors. We will make the capi-
talists starve by refusing to work, but
we do not wish to injure the capitalists"
Glovannitti's advice that a genera,
strike of hotel employees be called was
greeted with applause and at the con-
clusion of his speech it was announced
general strike order would be issued on

intensity at times yet always womanly,
she held the close attention of the
large assemblage of Hebrews and
Christians from the beginning to the
end of her remarkable address and de-
spite the sacredness of the edifice ap-
plause broke out several times when
she reached climax
At the beginning Madame Pevsner
naively said: my English is young and
therefore imperfect but her knowl-
edge of English expression proved re-
markabie and instead of the few idioms
she uttered detracting from her ad-
dress their very quaintness gave an ad-
ded charm.
Hebrew Ancestry
Referring to the pride of ancestry
OF the nations of the earth as DEM
onstrated by the relics of past ages
preserved in the museums of Europe
and of the different societies in the
United States that had for their pur-
pose the perpetuation of the martial
achievements of their forefathers, she
stated the Hebrews could proudly point
to their ancestry as antedating all
other nations and giving to the world
the prophets and kings and martial he-
roes of 1000 years ago. She reviewed
the history of the Jewish race when
1T was prosecuted by every nation, told
of the present limitations placed on
Jews by continental Europe and graph
ically described the prosecutions of the
Jews by Russia.
The gifted speaker then related the
| triumphs of the Jews in the arts and
sciences, In craftsmanship, in litera-
ture, in philosophy, in philanthropy. in
civic uplift, in every branch of learn
ing and every movement that meant
the advance of civilization. "The czar
of Russia has allowed 100000 of our
people to be ruthlessly prosecuted; has
deprived them of God given rights and
even put them to the sword. Yet, when
the young son of the czar was griev-
iously sick and every ruler in Europe
offered the services of their greatest
physicians, the gates of the palace of
the ear were thrown open to a Jew,
the great surgeon. DIR. Israel, who of
all the great physicians was deemed the
greatest"
In speaking of aharity Madame Pevs-
ner said: 1T was no charity to give
bread when you ahave plenty of cake,
or give discarded coat when you have
a sealskin jacket, or to give coal when
you have steam heat, but. true charity
is giving something you prize. some
thing that means a self sacrifice"

stated that few relics were carefully
