|ALPERN ELECTED
LOCAL DELEGATE
Will Represent City at Conyen-
ton Of American
Jewish Congress.

Over 725 votes were cast In yes
| terday's election for delegate to the
American Jewish Congress which is
| to be convened in Washington, D. c.,
September 2. 1917, and perhaps last
from two to three weeks. The cleo
ton was conducted simultaneously in
more than $50 cities, and 1t is esti-
mated that fully 100000 voted yes
/ terday. or the votes cast yesterday
the victor received over $50 votes
Isaac Alpern, of this city, was
/ elected to the American jewish Con-
gress to represent this district, which
also includes Roosevelt. -Four weeks
ago delegates representing twenty
one lodges and societies met In con-
and Isaac Alpern to run Rt-tthae ~elec-
/ ttton. Which yesterday resulted in
/ Alpern's favor.
J. In order to pay the expense of the
( election, the committee taxed each
Ivoter ten cents for the privilege of
casting ballot. In view of the fact
that the election was open to persons
of both sexes, Jewish women who
have been active in the equal suffrage
movement seized the occasion to test
their strength. Among the women
delegates voted for in New York and
lChicago were Mrs. Joseph Fels, Miss
Henrietta Sold and Mrs. ]. c. Gug-
genheimer
The election in this district ran of
quietly and despite the manifestation
of it's conservativeness, there was ac-
tive campaigning. The congress when
convened will consider means for the
bringing OF political equality and re-
lief to Jews in any part of the world
where they may be burdened by op-
preston and suffering.
In spite of the rumors that the
Congress is to be zionistic purely,
leaders insist on the contrary, except
that 1t will Zionistfc In no other
sense further than 1t contemplated
freedom and equality for the Jews In
Palestine as we'll as those in other
lands. 1t was emphatically stated
that the restoration Of Palestine to
the Jews and the establishment there
of q Jewish nation was not part
Of the congress program. All ele-
ments In American Jewry participated
in yesterdays election, including the
extreme radicals and reformed to the
ultra pious
The committee in charge of yes
terday's election consisted of Mrs.
Joseph l.. Klein, chairman; Mrs.
Joseph Slobodien, Mrs. Meyer KarkiIs,
Louis Y. Sosin, Harry Kottler, Leon
Guttman, Samuel Golub, Nathan
Roth. The polls were open from 8
a. m. to 4 p. m. and the counting of
the ballots started at p. m.
