HAS LITILEFAITH
in RUSSIA'S WORD
Simon Wolf, on Seventy
eighth Birthday, Questions
Promise to Poland.
SEES HOPE IN GERMANY
Believes if that Country Wins War
Kaiser Will Bring Pressure in
Interest of Jews.

Simon Wolf, weIl-known local attorney.
and for many years leader OF Jewish
activities in the United States, yesterday
celebrated his sevenry-eighth birthday.
When called upon he gave q lengthy ac-
count OF his ideas as to how the Eu-
ropean war will effect his race-the Jew.
Mr.. Wolf said he doubted that the Rus
sian government would fulfill the promise
1t Is said to have made that It will give
Poland home rule In return for loyalty
during the present war. He said that the
diplomatic representative OF Russia IN
this city has refused to confirm this
promise.
Mr.. Wolf said that II the Russian gov
ernment should carry out such a promise
II would be the greatest step forward
that country has ever taken. He said
there are 6,000.0o0 Jews in Russia and
most Of this number are in Poland. Self
government in Poland would, he said.
relieve the United States Of the burden
of caring for 1900 Jewish emIgrants a
year. who are forced to come to this
country because of the abnormal condI-
tions in Poland.
Places Hope I'm Germany.
This great number Of Jews. said Mr..
Wolf, are compelled to learn a new Ian
guage and conform to a civilization they
have not been used to. He said such
changes were not always good for them.
He said he believed. however, that II
Germany came out victorious in the pres
ent war, the Kaiser would bring some
infiVence to bear on the Russian govern
ment to obtain for the Jews of Poland
the freedom they enjoy in Germany.
In view Of the burden of which 1t would
relieve the United States. Mr.. Wolf said
he hoped that this government will, at
the conclusion OF the war, take steps TO
procure freedom for the Jews Of Poland
and Roumania. He said the idea was
not a new one, as John Hay had launch
ed II in his "Roumanian note" when he
was Secretary OF State. In this note Mr.:
Hay declared that the persecution OF
Jews in Poland led to an abnormal influx
Of those people into the United States.
and that the act was considered an un-
friendly one.
In closing his remarks Mr.. Wolf said
that, although he has lived here for more
than fifty years, he hopes to see the day
when Washington will be even greater
as the Nations Capital than 1t is today.
He was born In Hinzeweiler, Bavaria,
October q, 1896. He was honored by
friends at the Commercial Club.

TO MAKE AncFease IN FFAces
washington bakers denied yesterday
that they looked for an increase in the
price OF bread because Of the European
war. although the cost OF hour has ma
terially advanced within the past feW
months. In fact, they declare, their mel
returns show very little change over this
time last year.
That they do not predict an increased
bread cost or look for a cutting down OF
the weight OF the loaves is due to sew
eral causes, one being that nearly all or
the large baking firms had laid In large
supplies OF -four before the price jumped.
and another being the cutting down Of

returned TO. the plant by retailers because
Of no sales.

THINKS SIGNBOARD
SCHEME COON ONE

No concerted efforts will be made
by Neil B. Sinclair. the new general
secretary OF the Chamber OF Com
merce, to secure new industries for
the city until he gets the affairs of
his Office Strengthened out, becomes
familiar with local conditions and
the Wilmington Development Com
pany is put on a working bsis. Mr..
Sinclair has been in Wilmington lit
tie more than a week, and, OF course,
will take time to become faWiliar
with local conditions before startling
a systematic campaign for new in
dustrios. Several inquiries have been
received from firms about Whining
ton and il is thought as soon as the
development company IS placed on
q working basis the work OF the
Chamber of Commerce Will bear fruit.
Signboard advertising has b en-
adopted by a number OF citizens IN
the West, and much attention has
been attracted TO them by the signs
placed along railroads running INTO
the cities in the direction from which
the most traffic comes. The signs
describe the city. tell its advantages
free factory sites, number OF ra J.
roads and rivers. etc.
Mr. Sinclair is strongly in favor
of advertising. particularly sign
board advertising along railroads.
While in Chester he had sign boards
advertising the city placed on the
Pennsylvania Railroad, between VIII
mington and New York City, wh'cf
attracted much attention aud kept
/ Chester before the eyes of the travel
ing public. The Chester Board OF
/ Trade also advertised the city by
much printed literature.
Going out OF the city the eye OF tn
traveller is greeted with such signs as
'Why did you leave----?' Get OF
and walk back, it is only two miles.
These boards are catchy and attractv
and leave lasting impression on al
WHO see them.

LITTLE TALKS WITH
WANT AD READERS


You undoubtedly have heard OF an
emergency brake and know that It's
purpose is 70 check machine that is
running riot or that gets into some
other form of trouble.
Emergency brakes are very neces-
sary things, especially on locomo-
tives, elevators end other public car
riers, and the safety Of the people
using such conveyances so largely
depends upon this device that The law
OF al States requires that such appli-
ances be used by corporations doing
the business OF public carriers.
Now the fact is that not only inani-
mate machines need emergency
trakes. but most people do, too, for
there are very few people that do not
experience, some time In their lives,
II not many times, the unpleasantness
OF having things go wrong with them
generally, in business, In the home,
or in some other phase Of their every
day existence. Then, indeed, they
yearn for something like an emer-
eency brake to check the onward
rush of their AFFAIRS, which, II con-
tinued in the wrong direction, ulti-
mately leads 10 destruction.
Sometimes people in this situation
are so far behind the times that they
do not know where TO look for an
emergency brake. and the result OF
tkis ignorance is disastrous.
Now the real, up-to-date emer'
gency brake that is always sure &c
