Jews Work With Common End

To an extent that their own leaders say they never knew before Jews of Amer lea have come together for common ac-
 ton. The occasion that brings them into harmony is relief for Jews on european battlefields, in the great cities of countries now at war, and in Palestine, where 100000
 Jews are said to be starving, with abso- lutely no way to reach them at present, and a strong likelihood that large pro-
 leaders have just met and took this common action.
 The varying types of Jews which the war brings together are the orthodox, the reform, the conservative and the Zionist. The last named is not strictly a division of Judaism on doctrinal and conventional lines, as are the other three, but is made
 up of some from all of the three who
 favor a Jewish state in Palestine, not for American Jews to migrate to, but for the relief of oppressed Jews in Rus sia and Austria-Hungary. Some Zionists look forward to a Jewish political nation, especially if the Turk ceases to own the Holy Land.
 Louis Marshall of New York is presi- dent of the central Jewish relief com
 mittee, and Felix M. Warburg, the gov ernment expert who with others directs
 the affairs of the new federal reserve banks. is treasurer. Galician Jews have already raised in this country $500 900, but 1t is stated that while much has been gathered not a dollar has yet gone to the l sufferers. Jews now find it impossible to get any word to Palestine or even to Con stantinople. They are expressing fear | that all industrial enterprises built up | through the past years there to help the people toward self-support will be de- stroyed.

Old Claim Against Kaiser

From the London Chronicle.
 Some little time back there seemed a prospect of a lawsuit against the Kaiser with a view to making him dlsgorge some of his wealth. The plaintiff claimed to be the heir of Field Marshal Van Muen- mich, and stated that in 1765 his ancestor submitted a feud respecting some prop erty to the arbitration of Frederick the Great. depositing the sum of E46,soo as caution money This was never returned to the field marshal, although the award went in his favor, and with compound interest was calculated at about f2.0o00oo when steps were taken to reclaim it. The legal representative of the Ka ser ad- mitted that Frederick had retained the money. but as the claimant wac unable to show documentary evidence of his descent from Non Muennich the case did not go into court.
