THE BOLSHEVIKI REVOLT.
TIONARY TRIBUNAL
ACQUITS AN ANTI-SE-
MITE AGITATOR.

Petrograd (by ]. C)-The case,
of one, Gorshkov, appeared before
the new court which the Bolshe-
vikis have established, and which
they call "The Tribunal of the Revo-
luton" Gorshkov was charged,
with the spreading of proclamations
against the Bolshevikis. In these
proclamations Gorshkov insinuated
that all the Bolshevikis are Jews,
who have adopted a strange Chris
tan name, and all are working in
Germany's service. Gorshkov was
defended by journalist Staritz, on
the ground that he is probably out
of his mind.
The Tribunal decided to place
Gorshkov in the custody of a nerve
specialist who was to examine his
psychological state The audience
received this decision with great ap-
plause.

DRAFTING OF WOMEN FOR
SERVICE AS NURSES.
Urged by Superintendent of Beth
Israel Hospital.
New York

New York - The drafting
of women to relieve the shortage of
nurses now existing, is proposed in
letter written to Mr.. Bird S. Coler,
commissioner of charities, by Sup
erintendent Louis J. Frank of Beth
Israel Hospital.
1t is his proposal that women be
drafted primarily to replace the
nurses who have left for service in
the military hospitals abroad. But
he further believes that the women
who are drafted for service as
nurses might be employed in mill
tary hospitals as we'll as the other
institutions.
Superintendent Franks letter has
been sent to Congressman Isaac
Siegel and he has been asked to in
troduce the legislation suggested.
Among other things Superintendent
Frank says in his letter.:
"The women should be called up
on to make sacrifices which in the
end will inure to their personal
benefit, besides rendering a patriotic
duty to the country.

course in training school for nurses

Chronicle concerning the new COM
mandant of the Jewish Regiment or
gained in London, and now in
Palestine To the Community he
may have been comparatively I'M
known until now, except in connec-

Of the great trust bestowed upon
him-that of being the first Jewish
commandant of a Jewish unit in the
British Army. 1t is no light honor
that he has been called to bear, and
Jews in general may be proud of
him and of the wisdom evinced by
the War Office in the selection they
have made.
A nephew of Sir Marcus Samuel,
Bart, Col. Samuel, is married to a
sister of Capt Radcliffe Salaman,
the senior medical officer of the
.Judaeans, and of Mrs. Herbert
Cohen. His record is brilliant one.
He served in the South African
War, and for sixteen years he has
been in the 3rd London Regt At
the outbreak of the present war he
was stationed at Malta, but in Janu-
airy, 1915, he was sent to France,
and since that time he has been in
the thick of the fighting.
At first he was with the Carnival
Brigade of Indians, but for the past
twelve months his recent re-
call and appointment to the Juda
eans-he was in command of the
3rd London. He went through the
battles of Neuve Chapelle, Festu
bert, and Loos unscathed. 1t was
at Commecourt that he first took
command of his battalion, and he
was to the fore in the Somme bat
ties until wounded at the taking of
Combles, where he gained his D.
S. O. Subsequently at the battle of
Arras his battalion took a village,
and he was in the stress of fighting
at Glencorse Wood and Inverness
Copse. Recently he took part in the
battle of Cambria, and he has been
four times mentioned in dispatches.
Last December he gained bar to
his D. S. O., the deed being thus
officially described.
