Good Records of Jewish Soldiers.
"There have been no complaints
on the behavior of the Jewish SOL
diers over there" said Mr.. Schiff.
cit is generally acknowledged that
they have made excellent records
for themselves both in camp and in
actual battle. I have no doubt that
the splendid showing Of the Jewish
boys was, to a great extent, brought
about by the good work of the Jew
ish Welfare Board, which sent them
over with the moral strength to do
their full duty.
"This work is not over. 1t will
henceforth become larger. And we
must be doubly careful that de-
mobilization does not spell de-
moralization. Up to now the soldier
had a tremendous impetus in the
drilling and constant exercise, and
in battle. Now, to great extent,
it is different. We must furnish

Fifty-one buildings have been au-

velopes, larger Bibles by the hun

"To aid every Jewish community
to mobilize it's sentiment and ma

My Dear Colonel Cutler: The
