The Advisory Council made re-

reporting the amount of Bonds sold
by each. Of these 90 organizations,
the Council of Jewish Women
stands third highest with $11 ,605,-

It is regrettable that all the Sec

JEWS, GERMANS, AND Boil
SHEVIKS.

Much has been made in certain
quarters of M. Trotsky's Jewish ORR
gin, and the fact that there are a
few other Jews of the same descrip-
ton among the prominent Bolshe-
vik leaders has given rise to the as
sumption that Jews are to be found
out of all proportion among the
Bolsheviks. This is altogether the
opposite of the truth. The proper
ton of Jews among the Bolshevik
rank and file is in reality infnitesi
NAL, while on the other hand, the
Russian Jewish parties, including
the Jewish Labor Party, the Bund,
which bore so prominent a part in
the fight against Czarism previous
ly to the Revolution, are passion
ate1y anti-Bolshevik and anti-Ger-
man. In the Social Democratic and
Social Revolutionary parties, the
strongest of those opposing the Boil
sheviks, are to be found many Jew
ish leaders example, Deutso
Dan, Libor, Axo1rod, and Martov in
the former, Sterneberg, Gotz, Minor,

proved that we had the support of

The deliverance of Jerusalem in
creased the hopes thus created. The
appointment of the Zionist commits

the Jews of the North and South in

Substantial help has been given to

NEWS ABOUT JEWS
EVERYWHERE
NORTH DAKOTA WAR RE-
LIEF CAMPAIGN.

LIEF CAMPAIGN.
A remarkable campaign just COM
pleted under the auspices of the
American Jewish Relief Committee
throughout the state Of North Da-
kota, has resulted in a subscription
of $4,000 for the Jewish War Suf-
ferers. Last year North Dakota
raised $12,222.
This splendid achievement re-
ceived it's impetus from proclama-
ton issued by Governor Lynn ].
Frazier setting aside day for con-
tributions for the Jewish War Suf-
ferers calling upon all the citizens of
his state without regard to creed.
The state committee, under the lead
ership of D. M. Naftalin of Fargo,
Chairman, and Alex Stern, Treasur-
er, took every advantage of this OPP
portunity. With the invaluable aid
of Joseph H. Schanfeld of Mime
apolis the entire state was organized
with the county as a unit, every
county having its chairman.
The really unusual nature of the
success achieved can only be realized
when it is understood what appar-
emily insurmountable obstacles
stood in the way. The drive was
conducted when the influenza cpl
demic was at it's height and meet
ings of any kind were prohibited
throughout the state. Most unfor-
tunate of all, several days before the
campaign opened, the chairman, D.
M. Nafta1in, was himself stricken
with the disease. B. N. Lesk of
Minot, North Dakota, took the helm
temporarily and did remarkable
work, the chairman himself recov-
ering in time to take part in whirl-
wind finish.
The drive received great assist
ance from Rabbi Maurice LEI
kowitz Of Duluth and Rabbi S. N.
Deinard of Minneapolis. This sue
cess is in line with that already at
tanned by the statewide non-sec-
tartan drives in North Carolina and
in Mississippi. Inspired by these
magnificent results number of
other states are making arrange
ments to hold campaigns during the
first week in December.

HURLEY LAUDS
SHIP WORKERS
Says Ship Program Success
Is Due to Loyal
Cooperation.

The success of the United States
Shipping Board has been due to the
cooperation OF willing workers, from
the office staff to the workmen in
the yards. f. II. Hurley. its chair
man, declared last night at a recep-
tion given by Director General Schwab b
in the Metropolitan Opera House,
Philadelphia.
AT this time" Mr.. Hurley said.
Il wish to express the deep debt of
gratitude We owe to the great army
OF workers which has so splendidly
aided in QUE vast shipbuilding pro-
gram and to extend to every indi-
vidual OF that great army. to the
managers and workmen in the ship
yards. to the numerous Office force,
the sense of debt We owe to their
united and loyal support.
High tribute is due the labor Of
this nation for throwing its full en-
ergy and strength into the shipyards
and other industries upon which the
yards depend for their supplies. APP
Preciation is felt for the work the
corps of Washington correspondents.
whose articles have been sent broad
cast throughout the land. for the in
terest they have stimulated and sus-
tained in the work of upbuilding n
giant merchant marine.
Every American Played Part.
Every American has played his
and her part in driving the German
army out of France and Belgium" &"
Mr.. Hurley stated. Last month, he
said, the American ship yards COM
pleted and delivered AIS, 90S dead
weight tons of shipping. the finest
shipbuilding achievement the world
has ever known.
when I left Washington at 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon" Mr..
Hurley said. the city was a tumult
of JOY, the streets were filled with
groups wildly cheering over the
news of war victory. We have
every reason to believe that peace
with victory is at hand. and this
victory has in part been due to the
loyal cooperation of the members
OF our great shipbuilding in
dustries."
