reputed to be the leader of the most
violent group of Socialists. Later
she seconded DR.. Liebknecht in his
efforts to organize the Spartacus

When the Spartacus uprising
grew TO open rebellion against the

important part in urging the revo-

have left Berlin. Her arrest was

HAVE SMALLPOX
SCARE FOR DAY
Find Family Of Seven Suffering
with Disease After Investiga-
ton is Started.

Rock Island has Just experienced
smallpox scare.
Efforts of DR. C. T. Foster, city
health commissioner, during the
last two days, however, will pre-
vent serious outbreak of the dis
ease in the city. With the appear
ance of a smallpox case in the GEN.
trail part of the city, an investiga-
ton was started which resulted in
the discovery of a house in the ex-
IRENE west portion of the city
where seven were infected with the
disease husband and wife and their
five children.
One of the children was found to
be attending the Franklin school,
and on Wednesday was ordered out
of the building and in quarantine
at the home with the rest of the
family, which, it was learned, had
been infected with smallpox for the
last two weeks and no physician
was called or the health authorl-
ties notified.
The Franklin school was fumi-
gated Wednesday night and yester-
day a careful examination of each
student was made. No children
were found to have any symptoms
of the disease.
The smallpox cases that are ex-
listing in Rock Island today, nine in
number, have been traced to other
cities. Until Jan. 5 not one case
was known Of in the city. Eleven
cases were reported to date, but
two of these have since been dis
charged.

and vegetables in the East. For
this reason he maintained that a
slavish adherence to dry farming
principles as elaborated in the Amer
lean West would be detrimental to
the agricultural development of
Palestine.
To him it seemed important not
to displace the Arab husbandman,
who in spite of his primitive meth
DDS of husbandry had an inherited
intimacy with his native soil which
was as valuable as the knowledge
gained through modern science.
Conversant as he was with the his
tory of Israel, he realized that the
aridity of the Palestinian soil was
of comparatively recent origin and
was not due to actual barrenness.
If the Vale of Sharon had been pop
ulous in Roman times, then the
sand dunes now encroaching upon
it's fertile plains were caused by con-
ditions arising in historical times.
1t only requires study of the condi-
tons to remove or counterfeit their
detrimental influence If Biblical
and postbiblical literature spoke of
wooded hills, then a forestation in
modern Palestine was a close pos
sibility and the terraced hillsides
pointed to ways of cultivation aban-
doned but not necessarily to be dis
regarded. In the course of the years
he gathered a vast and valuable Ii
brary, and a botanical and general
scientific collection which promised
to be the nucleus of real museum.
Unfortunately all his collections
and his scientific notes and memoir
anda became the unvalued loot of
the Turkish armies in their marches
up and down the country during
the war.
He became widely known to the
scientific world through his discov-
cry of the so-cal1ed wild wheat, the
prototype of Our cultivated wheat
Several German and Austrian bot
anists had discovered intimations of
the presence of this wild wheat in
Palestine, but none had been able
to prove that it grew there. The
problem was put up to Aaronsohn
as the native scientist with the wild
est experience with the Palestinian
flora. Disappointed again and again
he persisted until he succeeded in
finding it on the slopes of Mt. Her.

"We are not sufficiently informed
concerning the pogroms in Poland, }"
said Mr.. Taft, "But the little infor-
nation which we have is enough to
arouse every honest man. | can
assure you that I have talked con-
corning them and written about
them. I even have a letter from
Paderewski' secretary in Washing
ton, filled with protest and re-
proach. Persecution of the Jews is
a serious crime of the nations. You
undoubtedly know that when | was
in the White House l broke off
diplomatic relations with Russia be-
cause of it's brutal treatment of the
Jews. To be perfectly frank, was
at the outset opposed to that course
because I feared that Russia would
avenge itself by further outrages
against the Jews. Later, however,
I was glad we had broken off diplo-
matte relations, and as | contem-
plate now what has happened to
Russia, I regard it as punishment
by Providence for it's treatment of
the Jewish people"
"What do you think, Mr.. Taft, of
the Jewish demand for minority
rights in various lands?" | asked.
81 deplore the fact that because
of the Japanese attitude at the Peace
Conference, there was no paragraph
included in the Peace Treaty guar
anteeing Jewish national rights in
certain lands. But if you will study
carefully the Peace Treaty, you will
see that the question has been left
to the League of Nations. AS far
as I know, Jewish rights will be
secured, but great caution will have
to be exercised concerning Poland
and Roumania. Roumania has, in
a shameful and dishonorable way,
violated the treaty of 1874. In that
document was included an express
proviso that all citizens of Roumania
have equal civil, political and reli-
gious rights. Roumania did very
simple thing: it declared that the
Jews, many of whom lived in the
land for centuries, are not citizens.
We must now be on our guard that
such devices shall be impossible in
the future. I cabled to President
Wilson about this only a few days
ago."

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD
The Death of Aaron
Aaronsohn


botanist, was killed in an aeroplane
accident near Boulogne while flying
from London to Paris on Thursday,
April 18th. He was Roumanian
by birth. AS a child Of five he was
taken by his parents to Palestine
whittier they went with a group of
their neighbors to form Jewish
farming settlement at Zichron Jacob
in Samaria The boy received the
traditional Jewish education in Bible
and Talmud, the knowledge of which
later stood him in good stead in
developing his farseeing agricultur
al and reclamation plans. From
early youth he assisted his father
on the farm, and at the age of
eighteen, Baron Edmund de Roths-
child granted him the opportunity
Of pursuing agronomic studies at
French institutions On his return
to Palestine, equipped with all that
modern science can bestow, he threw
himself eagerly into the study of
Palestinian agricultural problems
from a broadly scientific point of
view. He brought to bear upon
them varied information, geological
botanical, neurological, and me-
theological; above all, he was in
terested in geography, physical and
human. Those who had the privi-
lege of listening to his sparkling
exposition of the effect of environ
ment on men, will never forget his
eloquence and the vividness of his
illustrations.
While pursuing his studies and
observations, he trudged afoot over
the whole area of Palestine and
again and again covered it on horse
back. He knew the country as few
others have known it, and what he
saw was transmitted into scientific
knowledge, because he saw it with
eyes that had been sharpened in
Anatolia, in the Damascus region,
in Algiers and Tunis, and all parts
of the United States, especially in
California. His intensive study of
ancient and modern writings lead
him to the conclusion that the sal
walton of Pa1estinian husbandry lay
in the application of the principles
of dry farming to the Palestinian
soil. In fact, he considered modern
dry farming as revival of a sys-
tenn known in ancient times, but
