JEWISH BANK TO
 EXTEND CREDIT

The Anglo-Palestine Company or, as it is called in Palestine, the Jewish Bank, is displaying great activity of late. In spite of all the difficulties un- der which the bank labored in the days of the Turkish rulers, who final ly decreed its liquidation, the confi- dence of the population In the bank has remained unshaken. Since the occupation of Judea, the head bank in Jaffa and its branches in Jerusa- lem, Gaza, and Hebron have resumed their operations.
 The credit extended by the Jewish Bank has been an important factor in stimulating business in the Jewish colonies. The large commercial houses as well as numerous small merchants were at once able to resume their Egyptian trade. Many owners of or ange plantations were able, thanks to the credit extended to them by the bank, to procure the necessary petro- leum and coal which were placed at their disposal by the British govern ment. In all the colonies of Kionists grioups are now being formed with the object of procuring the necessary materials for planting and sowing
 With the credit given by the Jewish Hank, it will be possible speedily and successfully to carry out these tasks
 Each day large deposits are received ifby the bank in behalf of all kinds o1 institutions as well as private indi- viduals.

.zIONISTS WILL RAISE $3,OOO,OOO
 FOR PALESTINE
Launch Novel Drive in De-
 cember to Raise Funds For Reconstruction.

The Zionist Registration Campaign has attained such success that the organization Is encouraged to take up the next feature of the work that was determined upon at the Pitts burgh convention. This Is the task of raising s3,oO0,0Oo for the purposes of reconstruction and rehabilitation of the Jewish colonies and institu- tlons in Palestine.
 The drive that will be launched by the Zionist Organization of America for that purpose, early in December, will be of a novel character.
 In more ways than one 1t will be conducted on lines radically depart ing from the methods to which the public has become accustomed in these days of "one drive after anoth- er." With its enrolled membership as nucleus, the Zionist Organization of America plans to raise the needed amount in ways that will be free from the spectacular and the sensa- tional. It will be 8 sober appeal presented and carried through in sober manner.
 The Zionist Organization of Amer ica believes that 1t can raise the $3,- 000,00 within the period of sixty days beginning December 1. The | whole sum, with the exception o1 about $350, 900. which will be requir- | ed for the American operations of the movement will be devoted entirely | to the major task. One million dol | lars will be used in loans, through the Anglo-Palestine Co.,, for com munal, cooperative and other un dertakings which will have a direc l bearing on the economic develop ment of the country and it's resources 7, $5OO,000 will be devoted to agrarial credits; $250,OOo for the Palestin Administrative Commission; $400,00 for the American Zionist Medica | Unit; $2OO,000 for loans, through tn | Anglo-Palestine Bank, to private mer ! cantile enterprises; $100,000 for wei fare work for the Jewish Legion an
 dependents; $125,o 900 for the Pales tine School budget; and s25,000 fo
 subventioning special institutions lik
 the Bezallel, etc.
 In the American operation, SIP
 900 will be devoted to Hebrew; $21
 900 for the Mizrachi; $60,O00 for tn
 Educational department; $20,000 fo
 the Publication department; $40,OO
 for the Organization department S15,0 for the Women's departmer

13 TONS OF FOOD TAKEN TO TROOPS
 BY AEROPLANE
Detachment of Belgian Ar my Cut Off From Base
 Is Sustained.

Dunkirk, France, Nov. 18.---Corres- pondence of the Associated Press)- Thirteen tons of foodawas carried by the British Royal Air Force and the Belgian Air Forces to several divisions of the Belgian army which had ad- vanced beyond the Houthulst forest in Belgium, early in the Allied offensive in the Belgian sector, and sustained those troops during the period in which they were cut off from supplies owing to impossible roads. This is believed to be the largest scale in which supplies were ever delivered to troops by airFiane.
 Continuous rain, shell fire and ar tillery fire had ground the roads out of existence. They were transformed into channels of deep mud. By even ing the general in command of the Belgian forces reported that supplies of food had been exhausted. Would 1t ba possible. he inquired, to send food up bX airplane?
 The answer was that 1t would and the task was assigned to the Belgian Air Forces and to the Fifth group, of the British Royal Air Force. Their job was to deposit army ratons at a point to which nothing but bird or an airplane could penetrate It has been done before, of course; the garrison of Kut received supplies | by air, and ammunition and the like have been dropped at various places But 1t. had never been attempted or | such a scale.
 1 The cases of rations were broker up into appropriate parcels and these were packed in sacks of earth tc cushion them for the fall; while upon the f7ont the hungry di- visions prepared the dumping grounds and marked them with large white l crosses.
 l Some 80 machines shared the worl between them, including a squadron
 of the Fifth groups two-seaters. The! lifted their loads easily, and one b! l one they dipped to the front-it wa the front, too, and close to the line
 and dropped them overheard to tn

MANY INDICATIONS
 IN PAST YEARS

There have been more aibdications than Is generally supposed. More than 40 since the beginning of the Christian era are chronicled by the historians, three of them being or Fopes. They were not all strictly ab- dtcations, but in all there was yieldt- ing of power either voluntarily or under pressure the latter Two English Kings---Richard II. and James Hare in the list. In France abdtcation has been quite the fashlon. The great Napoleon addicated twice. and he was followed by Charles H and Louis Philippe. Napoleon H. was forced from power. Four mon archs ; of Spain have abdicated--- Philip ", and Charles ", Isabella IT., and Amadeus I. Most of the other abdtcations were monarchs of king doms that have long since ceased to exist, such as BrandenbuTg, Poland, 1 Scotland, the Eastern Empire, Sar- dinia, Naples, and Tuscany. Two American Emperors have abdicated, both of Brazil. Portugal lost a. Miguel in this way in 1884, and another one as a. result of revolution a few years ago. The most noted abdication next ] to that of Napoleon was that of Charles V. the Emperor, which was wholly voluntary. The most noted 1 abdications in Roman history are those of sulla the Dictator an1 the Emperor Diocletian.
 1 Thrones have fallen in this war as never before. The Czar of Russia, two Czars of Bulgaria. the King, of Greece, and the German Kaiser have disappeared, and the Emperor of Aus tr1a-Hungary is soon to follow them. Rumania and Serbia have lost their Kings, but only temporarily. In this remarkable record must be included King Ludwig of Bavaria. In one of Browning's poems is this: There's meaning in the fact That whose conquers, trtumphs, enters Rome,

STAMFORD
Special to The TEmes.)

Stratford, Nov. 1S.---In spite of the stormy weather, old Christ church was filled to capacity yesterday morning at the Victory service. Among the congregation were g. goodly number of the oDder residents of the town who were present at @. similar service soon after Lees surrender. One lady was heard to remark: T just had to come . today, rain or no rain. You know father played the organ at the Vic tory service after Lees surrender"
 Co. L. State Guard, were the guests of horror and turned out 50 strong, headed by Major Hermann and Capt. Atwood. The music was rendered by an enlarged choir under the capable direction of Mrs. Baldwin, organtst. The large congregation joined heartily in the hymns, particularly in the na- tional hymn, God Save Our Native Land" which was sung after the of fertory The Rev. Dr. Smith preached an eloquent sermon, taking as his text, Giving Thanks Always, for All Things" Eph. 5:2O. He commenced with the smaller things of every day life and led his hearers along up through the dark days of the war to the grand day of Victory He paid deserved tribute to the men of the Army and Navy, stating that one of the great things to give thanks for was that there was not one case on record where our colors had been sulied by an unmanly act of an American soldier.
 The church was well decorated, the national colors predominatinS. In the center of the chancel arch hung a large American flag. 1anked on either side by the Union Jack of Britain and the tri-color of France. On the left ot the choir was a stand of colors repre- senting Belgium, France, Great Brit ain, Italy and the United States. From the organ loft at the opposite end o1 the church hung a large English flag hanked by the Stars and Stripes or either side. Large American flag! were draped from the galleries, fou1 on each side, while the walls on eithel s11e of the main entrance were simi larly decorated. All in all 1t was service long to be remembered b! those who were fortunate enough t be present.
