JEWISH RELIEF
COMMITTEE ASKS
For Funds With Which To Save Mil
lions OF Destitute Jews From Freez-
ing and Starving This Winter
Associated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 16-While AM
erican homes are being frightened by
the annual holiday cheer, Isidore Her
shield, Commissioners in Poland for
the Joint Distribution Committee,
writes:
i must stand helpless at the death
bed OF thousands of my brothers and
sisters who are doomed to freeze, to
starve, to die"
Mr.. Hirshfield is head of all Jewish
relief work in Poland ,and as such,
is directing the work of attempting
to save million of destitute Jews, in
cluding over one million Jewish chill
dren, from annihilation this winter.
In letter appealing for aid to
Henry Rosenfelt, director of the Am
erican Jewish Relief Committee, which
has already raised over $11 ,OOO; 900
in campaigns held in half the states
of the Union, Mr.. Hirshfield describes
appalling conditions in Poland, as fol-
lows:
Wy supply VI duJCCL1NC6 10 uC-
scribe the situation here has long ago
been exhausted. The present winter
will take it's toll of many thousands
Of Jewish lives, among them many,
many thousands Of Jewish children.
They will die of starvation or cold.
Disease is now and will be ram
pant all over Poland. \ Our meagre
American moneys will not be able to
save people here. Our funds avail
able are trivial pittance. AS rep
resentative of the Joint Distribution
Committee here, I must stand help
less at the deathbed Of these thous-
ands of my brothers and sisters. They
are doomed to freeze, to starve, to
die.
"Can you help me save some of
them, at least the little children?
eff our well-fed, well-clad Ameri,
can people could see conditions here
and hear the pitiful appeals which
can not be adequately granted, am
sure that their hearts-broken, torn
nd bleeding as mine-would movs
them to give much more generously
Mr.. Hershfield likened his position
to that of mother with one loaf OF
bread and 10 hungry children, who
heartbroken, must stand by and watch
her children starve.
! 1My heart beats for all the towns
and districts, only small part Of
which can be aided from American
| funds,i he concluded. "The twenty
million marks we distributed in Sep
! tember and October is far from suffi
cient to supply the terrible needs
America has been doing all that i.
possible to save these stricken people
from death this winter, but it ha.
been far from enough.

Ask Permission Test
National Prohibition
Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16-The re-
all liquor dealers association Of New
Jersey asked the Supreme Court for
permission to institute original pro-
ceedings to have the National Prohib-
ition Amendment declared unconstitu-
tional and the officials enjoined from
enforcing it.
The liquor suit brief was filed by
the Association, alleged that the con-
stitutional amendment was interfeEr-
ed with by state and police powers in
violation Of the Fifth Constitutional
Amendment, which prohibits the talk
ing Of private property without just
compensate and contends that neSsh-
er Congress nor state legislation had
the authority to ratify the amendment.

THEY COME AND GO
ONEEACH YEAR
The Lord Mayors of Loadon-But
the Secretary, Sir Soulsby, Re-
mains A Fixture.
Associated Press

LONDON, Dec. 16-Lord Mayors Of
London come and go at the rate of
one year, but the Lord Mayors pri-
vate secretary, Sir William Jameson
Soulsby, remains a fixture. He was
first appointed to that office in 1875
and he has just been reappointed for
the forty-fifth time. :
He is the one indispensable man on
the Lord Mayors staff. He knows
just how everything should be done
according to precedent" And to
follow that precedent in all things
without hair breadth's deviation is
the chief duty of the Lord Mayor 1t
is Soulsby who tells him how to do
it so as to avoid introducing an inno-
vation which would be regarded as q
blunder worse than a crime. For, be
it known, the code of etiquette by
which the official conduct of the Lord
Mayor is regulated is more rigid than
that which obtains at Buckingham
Palace. Each successive Lord May
or after his inauguration puts him
self unreservedly in Soulsby-s hands
and the secretary sees him through.
He is the power behind the throne, the
man who pulls the strings on cere-
monial occasions.
Foreign potentates who have been
entertained by Lord Mayors from time
to time have recognized Soulsby' S
capacity for running things smoothly.
In consequence, besides being an Eng
lish knight, he is knight of more
foreign orders, it is said, than he can
count on both hands.
The Lord Mayor that has to get
along without him will have trying
time of it. But it is reported that
somebody is carefully understanding
the secretary so as to be able to pass
ably fill the gap that must occur some
time, for Soulsby is 68 years old.

News Of The Worlds
Cotton Production

The worlds production of cotton
has grown from 0,OOO 900 pounds in
1900 to 1,50O,0O0,o0O in 1850; $780,
OO0, 900 pounds in 1900, and 14,000,-
OO0, 900 pounds in 1913-the last nor
NAL yield. The 1913 crop, if all con-
verted into cloth, would have averag-
ed 35 yards per capita for the entire
population of the world. In 1900 it
averaged only three yards per capita.
Cotton has far .outstretched all 9TH
er textile fabrics in it's contribution
to the clothing Of the world, and the
various other uses to which it is being
put are constantly increasing in both
numbers and quantities. The annual
yield, with all by-products, is worth
more than that of all the gold and
silver and diamond mines of the
world, with the oil wells thrown in
for good measure. It's losses, so far
as production is concerned, are less
than one per cent of the worthless oil
and naining stocks put upon the mar
ket every year. It is still king, and
the most absolute monarch in exist
ence. Its sway is undisputed. It bids
fair, within the next decade, to make
the south the richest section of the
