RABBIS UNITING FOR PALESTINE
 TO MEET SOON

The most important conference in the history of the Orthodox Judaism of America will be held in New York City on December 4th and 5th for the purpose of considering practical measures for work in Palestine, in accordance with the declaration is- sued by the British Government on November End, favoring the estab- Iishment of a national Jewish home land. This conference, as planned by the Jewish Ministers Association of America (Agudath Ha-Rabon1m Ha- matifim Amerika) will meet at the Uptown Talmud Torah, 132 East 111th street. Over 500 rabbis have already signified their intention to be present and will come from points as far as Salt Lake City, Denver, Mime apolis, Chicago and Des Moines, and from as far south as New Orleans.
 The specific purpose of this confer ence is to organize all of the Ortho- dox Congregations of America for the work in Palestine; and no rabbi will be seated at this convention unless he comes as a duly authorized delegate of the congregation over which he or ficates. In explaining the issuance o1 the call for this conference, Rabb
 Mordecai A. Kaplan, who is chairman
 of the Committee for Arrangements
 stated that charge has been mad'
 that the Orthodox Jews of this coun i try are indifferent to the present op 1 portunity for the reGaining of Pales

tine, and hold to the traditional be- lief that the return to Palestine must be preceded by the advent of a Mes siah.
 "Such talk is obviously absurd" says Rabbi Kaplan. '"The Jews hold no such belief, though there may be this notion among some of the more ignorant and superstitious of our peo- pie. We realize that the regaining of Palestine is a matter Of practical poli- tics, and we realize also that unless we take every possible step to translate this opportunity into reality, great hope which has been the dominating hope in our prayers these last 1900 years, is forever gone."
 Orthodox Jewry is the greatest power in Jewish life in America. Up to the present it has, however, been without leadership and without or ganization. Hence, the advent of this wonderful opportunity finds Orthodox Jewry eager to take advantage of it and yet entirely unprepared. It is our purpose to so organize the great forces which are behind us and who look to us for leadership, that when the momen arrives for taking prac- tical steps toward the rebuilding of our land we shall be thoroughly equipped for the work" Rabbi kap- Ian explained further that the pre- paration for this convention had been proceeding quietly for the last two weeks and that it was in position to announce now that it had already
 received acceptances from 75 per
 cent. of the 500 rabies who had been invited and that additional accept ances were arriving by every mail. IT
 sending out invitations for this con ference, care was taken to communi
 cate only with such rabbis as were
 actually officiating ministers of or ganized congregations.
 It is for this reason that the con l ference on Dec. 4th and 9th, will b of a most representative characte

dertaken by it, which will be careful ly checked up, will undoubtedly un- earth the extent of apathy and dis loyalty and furnish an exact basis for further efforts to meet the situation. It was this idea which prompted the League to address not only the school heads but the Mayors of the leading cities and the principal newspapers, asking their cooperation and reply on the situation in their part of the country.
 The Security Leagues resolution, starting this campaign, reads as fol- lows:
 Whereas wars are now waged not only by armies but also entire peoples and it is the spirit of the people of the Allied nations which must win victor les, we look with grave concern upon the alleged seditious views of certain teachers as a menace to the lives of our men in the Army and Navy;
 Resolved, that, without prejudg. ing the actions or views of any parti- cular teacher, or reflecting upon the vast majority of our teachers who are loyal and patriotic, we urge upon the Board of Education of the City of New York, and in fact, of all cities, to remove from their teaching staffs for with any teacher who is proven not to be supporting the conduct of the war and not upholding the Federal government with absolute loyalty;
 Resolved, that, as a. national ne- cessity and as a war measure, we call upon every board of education, school commissioner and school committee to put into the curriculum of the schools without delay, as part of each days actual tuition, the facts. showing why we are at war with Germany, the dan ger of. failure to thisc ountry, and the duty of every American to sup port the conduct of the war Loyalty and by service.''
 The Leagues letter to the state, county and city superintendents of schools reads:
 we respectfully call your attention to the most important duty which educators in this country can perform today.
 we ask you to make American school children fully acquainted with the reasons why we are at war with Germany and the menace of defeat. If this knowledge is given to them in simple and clear fashion, they will carry a message into their homes cre- ating a unified and enthusiastic Amer ican spirit in support of the war. Wars are now won by the people behind the line through their moral support and their supply of means for battle. The stimulating of the national morale which will encourage our soldiers abroad is a distinct aid to victory.
 eve submit it is the patriotic duty of all educators to undertake the work referred to in the enclosed resolutions To be of practical assistance, we are preparing an outline of subject-mat- ter from the government publications. It will be forwarded upon request.
 we are sending copies of this let ter and resolution to the Mayor and the editors of the newspapers in your city asking support for you in the affirmative action which we hope will be staken.

MACHINIsTs' CARNIVAL.

The championship of Connecticut in dancing honors is to be contested tonight at the Casino. John T. Kane of Bridgeport, who with Miss Wah- nita Barker, won the honor against all corners at the Brook1awn dancing academy last Wednesday night. must protect their 1aurels when they meet the unrivalled upstate dancers who are coming here.
 7. Under the auspices of the Interna- stional Association of Machinists, rep resented by four lodges in Bridge port, now holding a carnival and dance in the Casino which looks like a veritable carnival on the open-air lots in summertime, they will decide the challenges which have been made.
 Special judges are to be decided upon this afternoon and will be an- nounced before the event takes place. A number of handsome prizes for other events of local interest to the dancing crowds of this city have been provided.
 The Machinists' carnival opened it's doors on Wednesday night when speakers of national importance in organized labor ranks made ad- dresses. N%f
 Under the direction of the Fried man Brothers. formerly of the Greater Rutherford Shows, special feature attractions are offered nightly to the crowds.
 The carnival, within a large and well heated building where there are plenty of seats for those weary of danicng and sightseeing will be a rendezvous for the young and the old of both sexes this week.

SECURITY LEAGUE URGES EDUCATORS |TO TELL CHILL LDREN MEANING OF WAR

New York. Nov. sO.-Alive to the menace involved in the recent revela- Hons, not only of disloyalty, but of lpathy and ignorance toward the war M many sections of the country, Threatening at once the successful prosscution of the war and the very 'oundations of Amertcanism, the Ma donal Security League announced to- Aay the Inauguration by 1t of an ef- Mort of wide scope to further patriotic kQucatton in the schools of the coun- iry. The League has requested every Educational instructor in every state ln the Union to add to the curriculum 3f each school under his or her juris- a1otion. as part of each days actual kcaohtng, instruction of the children aM the reasons for this country enter lng the war, the menace of defeat and The duty of every citizen to render rome service in support of Americas eause-
 The Security Leagues effort to car ry this practical instruction in loyalty t0 the lsehndL qhHdFen yofl the land, And through them into the homes, Is being promoted by series of letters which have been sent to all the State 8uperintendents of Education, the B., poo County Superintendents, and the 3uperintendents of schools of every r1ty in the country of over 2,500 in- habitants. The league has also writ tom the Mayors and the editors of the leading newspapers in all the princi- pal cities asking them to give the edu. natIonal authorities their fullest sup port in putting this patriotic teaching Into effect. ....,.....
 The keynote of the Leagues idea is Ehum expressed in the letter to the bditorE urging their editorial influence behind the movement:
 "The spirit with which our men dxhk abroad depends very, largely up- on the spirit of the American people md the unity of Congressional sup Victory will be achieved all the more spesdfly and certainly if there is in This country a strong and enth husiastic sentiment for the war. This can be created by making 1t plain to the peo- plo why we are at war and the neces- sffy of victory.
 The teacher is a powerful factor in preserving national liberty and hon Dr To set the facts before the chill 1run in plain and easily understood language will unquestionably result in me message being carried into the homes of the people and, through a clear understanding based upon knowledge. a higher patriotism will be 4eveloped."
 The Inauguration of this campaign Hus determined by the Executive Commfttee of the Security League be- taues 1t realized that the best way to overcome indifference and ignorance, k9 wen as disloya1ty, was through a nle4r national understanding of the roasons for the war. It was felt that more denunciatfon of disloyalty was 10t sufficiently constructive to meet Inc >pftnation, but that a broad plan If exfending knowledge would be the most practical and helpful way of meeting a serious condition.

 To the Mayors, the league wrote:

 "A copy of this resolution has been sent to the superintendent of schools of your city and we earnestly ask you to support the educational authorities in taking affirmative action. Wars are won nowadays not alone by ar mics but by the spirit of the people behind the armies.
 'If the American people, and es- pecially American youths, can be made fully acquainted with the reas- ons why we are in the war and will support the vigorous and successful prosecution of the war through a clearer understanding of the issues in volved, victory will be achieved all the more speedily and certainly.
 "We are prepared to practically as- sist in this work by furnishing an out line of subject-matter from govern ment publications, prepared by a com mittee of distinguished educators. we ask your cooperation in an effort so vital to our national welfare and would be glad to be favored with @ prompt reply"
