ADLER ELECTED PRESIDENT
nE THE limited SYNAGl


Dr. CYRUS Adler, of Philadelphia, has
lust been elected president OF the
United SynagOg of America ana the
former president, Rev Dr. solomon
Schechter head of the Jewish semi
narv. New York, has been made honor
arv president The change was made
because the work of the United Syna-
cog, aggressive and not always With-
out stout opposition among Jews the'tl-
selves is held to require compare
tiveIv Young man, able TO build up an
organization and contend for consecVa-
tive Judaism. The conservatives pc
hind Dr. Adler declare that the success
of the United Synagog is essential Il
an American Israel lives.
New plans of the SynagOg include
travelling secretaries who shall en-
deavOr to pledge new congregations 10
the conservative plans; the issue of
text books for Jewish schools that shall
set forth historic Judaism In COnserYa-
tive terms; and the encouragement OF
schOls attached to congregations ana
supported by them. About 30 cOngre-
cations now adhere to the United
Synagog, including some of the larcg-
est in New York, Philadelphia, Clncln-
natl, Kansas City and Denver.
1t is the regret of leaders IN all
three branches Of active Judaism IN
America that very large proportion
of American Jews neglect their rel1-
gion altogether, save perhaps once
year. The remnant that are reng-
iously active are divided into three
camps--OrthOdOx, Conservative and
Reform, the first named nearer to-
Eether than is the last named with
either of them. The United Synagog,
in its report just issued, urges that dif-
ferences between Conservative and
Orthodox jews be minimized. The
United SynaEog is just entering its sec
oud year. Each of the three branches
Of Judaism has national organizations,
and each procIaims itself essential to
the existence Of an American Israel

PREsBYTERIAN HOME MISSION
BOARD To BE REORGANIZE


The Presbyterian Board OF Home
missions. into whose hands Presbyter-
ians entrUst almost 100000 a year,
making it one of the largest missionary
societies in the world, has just made
public recommendations which 1t VIII
make to the General assembly Of its
church, meeting in Chicago in Nay.
These recommendations call for a
wholesale ganizatiOn Of the board
itself, and are held to be the outcome
of attacks upon it, made last year and
this. The contention has been between
administration Of home mission work
by presbyteries, each in its local field
and at little or no cost for secretaries,
or by a national body, at what many
hold to be heavy. expense.
The board now states that II viii IN
effect surrender its entire commission
so to speak, to the General assembly,
and ask for such new assignment Of
work as the assembly sees fit to give
it At Atlanta last May it was or
dsred by the General assembly to dis
continue field secretaries, Mexican ana
indian departments, and a department
church and country life as soon as
three years might be sufficiently
early, but many Presbyterian leaders
thought OtherWise-and said so. The
board now announces that it will dis
continue all on June I next.
New commissions Of work which the
board announces that it viii ask the
Chicago assembly to give it to do are
grants. 1t offers to classify salaries Of
its executive officers, complaint hav-
ing been made about expenses; to es-
tablish q branch office in some city
in the west, either Chicago or St. Louis:
