When the Unworthy Object OF Pub
lie Curiosity is interviewed by the lntelli-
gent Young Reporter, no one doubts the
Object s modesty. The theory is that the
Reporter has literally wrung from the Oh
ject few meager facts, and has handled
them rather freely in the transcription, so
that anecdotes which rebound to the Oh
ject' s glory are attributed to the mag ina
ton Of the Reporter instead of to the OBJ
ject's own vanity In point of fact, the
Reporter usually has his work cut out
for him when he boils down the mass
Of egotistical conversation with which the
Object has RECALLED him.

POTASH AND PERLMUTTER
The Truth About Them and Their Founder.

Mode Suit Company on West Twentieth
street as the case may be.
Now for the confession. The surname
''Glass'' was practically forced on me,
so to speak, for my father, James D. Glass,
was linen merchant in Manchester, Eng
land where 1 was born thirty three years
Montague, | need hardly tell all you Nor
timers, Millions and Maxwells that the
"Chrstian name Of my grandfather

Let us pass on to the third inquiry:
"Was 1 ever in the cloak and suit bust

to say that l have never been in any

! was associated with firm whose prac-
tice was largely of the kind called "com-
mercial'' and many of their clients were
engaged in the women s enlargement
business. From that source 1 derived
some knowledge Of the cloak and suit
business, but not enough to prevent me
from getting into technical difficulties.
No doubt you read in the early Pot
ash & Perlmutter stories that Abe and
Morris received many orders for gar
ments in gross lots. After. the third
story, they ceased to do business on quite
so wholesale a scale, and this sudden fall
ing off in trade was due to about hun
dred letters L received from readers
throughout the United States. They all
wrote me that they enjoyed the stories
very much, but cloaks were not sold by
the gross. Cloak and suit acquaintance
accosted me on the street to tell me that
cloaks were not sold by the gross. was
called up on the telephone, at home and
in my office, and asked by strange and
familiar voices if I knew that cloaks were
not sold by the gross. Finally the editor
Of the "Post' wrote to me and said
that he received few letters which point
ed out slight defect in my stories, name
ly, cloaks were not sold by the gross. 1
therefore receded from my position. l
saw that any attempt L might make to
change the long established custom of
trade would be hopeless, so Potash & Perl
mutter now sell cloaks and suits by the
single garment.
Many readers have asked "Who are
the originals of Potash & Perlmutter,
Henry D. Feldman, Sammet Brothers,
Klinger Klein, ETC., etc.?' To all of
which 1 make reply that there aren t any.
Abe and Morris are composite characters,
as is Henry d. Feldman. His habit of
quoting Law Latin to his impressonable
clients is not foreign to numberless prac-
titioners in New York City, and as for his
reputed infallibility, there are few bust
ness men who do not regard one particular
lawyer as veritable phenomenon
eff Henry ID. Feldman couldn't do it,
Abe, nobody could,' Morris declares, and

for Henry D. Feldman the phrase will not

change of views called by Mr.. Kraus of
the Bnai Birth to be held October 3rd
is proper beginning of the discussion
of the grave problems involved
There should from time to- time be
many such gatherings not only of those
whose official positions place upon them
special responsibilities for Jewish inter-
ests, but also of many others whose spe-
cial study of the questions involved en-
able them to make valuable contribu
tons to the thought on this subject
and whose intense interest will aid in
the great task of effective organization.
On the other hand, the conference which
the American Jewish Committee pro-
posed should be held on October Oath
would be not only futile but dangerous.
1t would be futile because the confer
ence would purport to be an assembly
authorized to express the will of the
Jewish people, whereas it would in fact
have no such mandate and would lack
the necessary support of the Jews of
America without which it's action would
be ineffective.
Such a conference would be positively
dangerous to Jewish interests; first, be-
cause it's deliberations would be secret,
and the fact of secrecy would lead neces-
sarily to suspicion and misrepresenta-
ton of Jewish purposes and deprive us
of non-Jewish support We seek action
in the open so that there shall be no
misunderstanding either among our own
people or among our fellOw-citizens, as
to our aims and methods. We need to
avoid any real or seeming secrecy of &C
ton and of aim which might cause mis-
trust and which might breed prejudice.
The ends which the Jewish people seek
are so simple and their difficulties are
so we'll known that no one has yet been
able to state an adequate reason for
holding Jewish conference in secret.
Secondly such a conference would be
dangerous because it would discourage
activity on the part of the Jews of Amer
lea who would assume that the confer
ence had relieved them of the necessity
of doing their part.
In the third place, such conference,
in secret, would inevitably prevent Jew
ish unity, because a large part of the
Jews of America have definitely de-
clared against it. OF the organizations
originally invited, organizations to which
more than two-thirds of all the delegates
arranged for have been assigned and
which together have a membership OF
more than 100000 persons, have already
refused to participate in the Conference.
Let us bear in mind the statement
made by Earl Derby in 1876 to the me-
mortal which Baron Worms presented in
the hope of securing a removal of the
Roumanian disabilities: Il cannot ad
wise you better than to appeal constant
ly and on all fitting occasions to that
which you will find stronger support
than that which any government can
give you, namely, the support of general
public opinion. The demand for de-
mocracy in the consideration of Jewish
problems is not a matter of form It is
