UNDERPAID GALICIAN JEWS
DIE OF STARVATION.

Fifty thousand workmen of Cali
cia, most of them Jews, die annu-
ally of starvation, according to DR..
Straucher, member of the Austrian
Reichstag. The author of this
startling statement, which was made
at the recent meeting of the Jewish
National Federation of Austria, said
this dreadful state of affairs was due
to the fact that the Galician work
man is the most underpaid in all
Europe.
"The Jews of Whitechapel roll in
luxury by contract with the Ghetto
denizens of Cracow, among whom
the death-rate is 6 per cent per an
mum, compared to 3 per cent for the
rest of the population. The maxi
mum income of a Jewish artisan is
200 gulden- $40 annually.
DR.. Straucher was bitter in his
arraignment of the type he describ-
ed as |'The Polish Club Jews" who
hobnob with the most outspoken
antisemites and "have never lifted
finger to alleviate the condition
of their own flesh and blood" The
organization of the Jews of Austro-
Hungary on a national basis,
through the forthcoming Jewish
Congress, was the only method for
dealing with the frightful condi-
tons he revealed.

ITALY'S OFFICIAL APPROVAL
OF ZIONISM.

Through its ambassador at the
Court of St. James, the Italian Gov
eminent has officially signifed it's
approval Of the English and French
Declarations in favor of the Zionist
movement and of Jewish National
Homeland in Palestine.
Mr.. Nahum Sokolow, representa-
tive in London of the Zionist Inter
national Political Committee, has
received from Ambassador Imperi-
ali, the following formal statement
Of Italy's attitude on these ques-
tons:
"On the instructions of His Ex-
cellency Baron Sonnino, His Ma
jesty's Minister for Foreign Affairs,
| have the honour to inform you
that H. NJ. Government is pleased
to confirm the declarations already
made through their representatives
in Washington, the Hague and Sa-
lonica, to the effect that they will
use their best endeavours to facil-
itate the establishment in Palestine
of a Jewish National centre, it be-
ing understood that this shall not
rejudice the legal or political statu,
enjoyed by Jews in any other coun-
try"
The British Declaration in favor
of a Jewish National Homeland in
Palestine was made on November
End, 1917. The French statement
was made on February 18th, 1918.
On February 18th of this year a
dispatch appeared in the daily news
papers to the effect that the Italian
Government had notified it's Am
bassadors that it approved of the
stand on Palestine taken by it's al
lies. This, however, is the first
authorized announcement by the
Italian Government to the Zionist
Organization. Early in April NJ
Jacobus Kann, President of the
Dutch Zionist Federation, announced
that he had been authorized by the
Government of Holland to announce
that it also approves of the estab-
lishment Of. Jewish National
Homeland in Palestine, :.
