Planning Reorganization of Move
ment.
The new situation with regard to
Palestine, a situation for which the
Zionists have hoped and worked
these past twenty years makes re-
organization of the American branch
movement a matter for immediate
consideration. The Executive Com
mittee of the Federation of Ameri-
can Zionists has evolved a new plan
of organization which will substitute
districts for the present society"
plan without destroying the identity
Of such societies which have some
particular purpose to serve other
than mere adherence to the move
ment as a whole. Thus Hadassah,
the camps of the Order Bnai Zion,
the collegiate branches and other or
CARNATIONS with a specific purpose
will continue to function, but the
plan is that even these organizations
will be grouped within the district
jurisdiction.
This plan will facilitate the fur
Their development of territorial or
CARNATIONS and State groups, along
the lines of the Zionist Federation
of the Middle West, the Connecticut,
PENNSYLVANIA, Ohio and Texas
State Organizations. 1t will also
bring into closer cooperation all
the Zionists living within a certain
city quarter making intensive work,
house-to-house canvass and registry
and neighborhood propaganda, sim
pier by mobilizing the active Zion
lists in the section where they re-
side. The aim of this plan is to
bring into the organization the
hundreds of thousands who sympa-
thize with the movement, but who
have not been reached by the $50
ciety" which is organized on basis
of congeniality. The district plan
following the line of organization
adopted by the Republican and
Democratic parties will reach out for
every Jew in given section. Each
district, resembling roughly the as
semb1y district, will be differed by
residents of the locality, and the ac-
tive Zionists will be made response
BILE for wards and blocks. The "as-
semb1y" districts will be under the
jurisdiction of the city committee,
which will be responsible to the
State organization The latter will
come into direct contact with the
national committee, the Federation
Executive, which is responsible to
the International Actions Commit

The sentry in the yard stopped and

inside, stayed a while and calmly
strolled back with the board under his

again he told US he had found a vino

There was a lot Of bamboo near the
Russian barracks and the Russians
made baskets out of It and turned

URGES CITY JEWELLERS
TO SERVE ON The FARMS

Washington, March 4.-secretary
Houston of the department of agTi-
culture today issued a call to urban
people to study the farm labor sit
uation and to render assistance TO
farmers during the coming crop
season.
'Tf soldiers are willing to serve in
the trenches and risk their lives,
declared Secretary Houston, many
civilians can we'll afford to spare a
part Of their time to serve in the
burrows and in the harvest fields.
In many towns and cities there are
men who have had farming expert
ence. who are a.blebodied, and who
would doubtless be willing to serve
the nation in the field Of agriculture
at this time"
Leaders in towns and cities tim
mediately dependent upon regions
where farmers are not able to secure
the necessary labor should establish
touch with representative farm
leaders and see IL they cannot assist
in solving the problem, Secretary
Houston suggests.

Premier Pays Call
On American Soldiers Who
RebulSed Recent Attack

Germans left quite large number OF
corpses between the lines.
1T was very fine success, re-
fiecting great honor on the tenacity
Of the American infantry and the
accuracy of the artillery fire, which
have thus shown they are capable
Of attaining the maximum effect
from the French material which they
have adopted.
after visiting the field hospital
where he admired the morale of the
wounded, the premier went to the
front lines to examine the scene of
this operation. During his CONVEX
stations with American generals, of
ficers and privates, the premier
noted in everyone feeling Of abb
solute confidence, which, If possible,
had been heightened further by the
brilliant results of their first serious
meeting with the enemy, over whom
our allies have thus clearly shown
their superiority.
THE premier also saw on his way
some Of our own troops at rest. He
conversed with the officers and men,
warmly congratulating and encour-
aging them. Our poilus had but one
reply:
"'They shall not pass!'"

London, March 4.-The German
governments Infamous war policy
was assailed in the reichstag in the
course of Fridays debate by Herr
Vogtherr, an Independent Socialist,
according to Berlin advices sent
from Amsterdam by the Reuter- cor
respondent there
The German ultimatum ID not
calculated to create conditions of
peace and friendship with Russia, "
Herr VogtheTT declared. I'm the
case Of the Ukraine peace, Germany
and Austria already are quarreling
over the booty. The war we now
are waging in defenseless Russia
serves only the propertied classes Of
the disputed territory.
Tn Lithuania we have made no
moral conquests. The Ldthuanians
long to be back in Russia.
I'VE are not allowed to know the
truth. The fatherland party Is
pursuing a blood thirsty propaganda
against foreign countries. We are
sold body and soul TO the military
caste. We are pursuing an infamous
war policy"
At this point the vice president
called the speaker to order, but he
insisted on continuing his speech.
