z|oMSTS ARE NEUTRAL,
DR.. .GlUSHAK.DECLARES
View Of Louis D. Brandefs Strongly
Indorsed in Lecture Before
the Ahavas Society.

"Zionism and Its Opposers" was the
subject of a lecture by DR.. Leopold
Glushak before meeting of the Ahavas
Zion Society, 1928 9Th street northwest.
last night, in which the speaker strong
ly indorsed the views Of Louis D. Bran
deis in favor OF tho Zionist movement
as recently presented by the Jewish
leader In this city.
DR.. Glushak described Zionism as
purely a movement to benefit thousands
of Jews in other lands, particularly
those who feel the need of a legaliZed
center they could call their own coun
try. The Zionsts favor Palestine, he
said, because it is the land whence the
Jews originally came.
Dr. Glushak denied that there is any
such man as Zionist American jew.
as 1t has been charged, a double hy-
phenated citizen. He also declared
that 1t is impossible to compare the
Palestine Of the future with the Bel
gium of today, stating that Belgium is
and always has been military ma
ton, whereas Zion will be a Jewish
state which will defend itself only with
righteousness.
Palestine being a central point. q
bridge between the nations.1 the speaker
brought ont, would necessarily have to
be a neutral nation In the true sense OF
the word. "And there are no more
neutral people in the world than the
Jews" said DR.. Glushak.
The Zionists In this country strong
ly object to being reminded to be pa
-riotic all the time. the speaker said,
because they have patriotism already.
D. Alpher presided. The question
anent Zionism will be further cons d.
cred at the next meeting Of the society
when Mr.. Ear of Baltimore will speak
on THE Fundamental Principles OF
Zionism.'

Contractors In Navy
Acting Secretary Roosevelt Issues Or
der Sustaining Position Of A. F.ef-L.
Metal Trades Department

Acting Secretary of the Navy Franklin
d. Roosevelt has sustained the position
of the A. +. of L. metal trades depart
ment that the federal eight-hour law
should apply to torpedo boat engines
manufactured by subcontractors. The
law gives heads of government depart
ments power to buy supplies in the open
market regardless of the hours employed
in the manufacture of these supplies. The
unionists have held that torpedo boat
engines are built under special specifica-
tions and are not commodity as gen.
orally understood.
Acting Secretary Roosevelt has sus-
tanned this position and has written the
following letter to Secretary Berres OF
the metal trades department:
Referring to your inquiry of the 10th
instant concerning the departments de-
cision on the question as to whether
the construction by the New London
Ship and Engine company, as subcon-
tractors of the Electric Boat company of
the engines for submarine boats for the
navy is to be regarded as eight hour
work. have to advise you that on the
10Th instant the department addressed
to the Electric Boat company letter,
saying:
Heretofore the department, follow
ing opinions of preceding attorney gem
eral. has held that the engines for SUBJ
marines under construction by your sub
contractor, the New London Ship and
Engine company, were excepted from the
eighthour rule by the second section of
the act, as being materials or articles
that may usually be purcLssed in the
open market and not OF kind custo-
marily manufactured by the government,
but the view of the attorney general
set forth in said opinion makes it plain,
as you will see upon perusal thereof. that
the engines of submarines fall within
the eight hour restriction, and not within
the exceptions therefrom of the second
section of the act.
1t is requested that you inform your
subeontractor, the New London Ship and
Engine company, OF the foregoing and
instruct that company to observe the
requirement of the eight t-hour law in
the construction of the engines they are
now building for submarine boats under
contract with you for the navy"
