that porter had found in the wash,
room an empty bag which tailed ex.
actly with the bag Wood had when he

get a lot of silver, but, instead, asked
for large bills, which would not be
bulky.
There is no further clew. 1t is pre-

the bag, and then boarded the sub.

Norwich bulletin., 1915-12-13

Before an enthusiastic audience that filled the Colonial theater two of the notable leaders in the Zionist move ment. Hon. Louis Lipsky of New York and Dr. Schmarya Levin, formerly of the Russian duma, made forceful and impressive addresses on Sunday eve- ming that moved their hearers to pro- longed applause and when an appeal for contributions was made for the Zionist cause and for the relief of Jewish sufferers from the war in Eu- rope was made, the response placed over $135 in the hands of the local committee.
 President Abner Schwartz of the Norwich Zion camp opened the meet ing at 7.45 with words of welcome to the large audience and introduced Rabbi Max Stamm as chairman for the evening.
 After the singing of the selection Dort Vie Die Cedar, by a group of about 50 children from the Hebrew school and the Hebrew Sunday school, Rabbi Stamm introduced Hon. MT. Lipsky, who is the head of the Amer ican Zionist Federation.
 He was greeted with prolonged ap- plause as he rose to speak and was frequently applauded in the course of his forceful and earnest address in which he pleaded for the creation of a Jewish national spirit that should enable them to maintain in Palestine, the position that they ought to main tain with honor and dignity. Though the Jews are a people of 12,.006,000 he pointed out that they were gaining nothing by their own strength, but were contributing it all to help other national ideas from which they gained nothing. In the present European war there is presented the pitiable spec tacle of Jew fighting against Jew, en- rolled as they may be under the flag of Russia Or Germany or Austria or France or England. Everywhere the Jew Is giving of his own strength to help another nationality and the stronger the other becomes the weak CT becomes the Jew. Never in the last few hundred years has there been an occasion when Jews gave up their lives that Jews might live for the pow CT that was shown at the time of the Maccabees has departed from them as people. Constantly they have been harassed, a driven people passive and willing to give up that they might only live.
 It is the Zionist movement, he said, that would bring back the old nation al spirit of resistance and calls upon the Jews to fight back against the powers that are destroying them. The Zfonists have a clear cut idea. If we
