Tulsa, July 1s.--A permanent or.
ganization of the veterans of the
famous Rainbow division who live
in Oklahoma has been formed. With
headquarters at Tulsa the Oklahoma
chapter of the Rainbow Division
Veterans" is rapidly receiving appli-
cations for membership from those
who served in the various regi-
ments of the fighting division.
The Oklahoma Ambulance com.
pany, which was recruited at Tulsa,
and which later became Ambulance
Company 1877 of the 42nd division, is
serving as nucleus about which
the organization is being perfected.
In all of the 26 states which furn-
ished troops for this great unit
which was the first to represent the
national guard of the United States
on European battlefields, and which
was counted by war critics as one

for apartments or houses and offered
fancy premiums so are Germans here
advertising constantly, with the bait
of large reward for desirable
places.
While up to this writing the rent
strike proposal has been merely spo-
radio threats, the question of hous-
ing has come up quite strongly of
late for government consideration
And, one of the answers given in the
course of testimony on the subject
was that the Illicit trade in lumber
and building material-Just as with
the "Schleichhandep in food-had
made prices of building stuffs soar
out of reach of ordinary contractors
In line with development of social
istic proposals here, many persons
would like the government to go in
to the housing business on large
scale but this has not so far come to
any material plan.
Berlhfs housing deficiency arise
both from the fact that there has
been considerable influx of war
workers, and from the fact that, dur
ing the war it was impossible to at
tend to normal building requirements,
The tendency toward socialization
has developed recently into@a move
ment for municipal purchase of the

was, the correspondent could not
learn, since it had to be passed
along to several soviets, and num-
erous yards of red tape had to be
unwound before the matter could be
solved. Probably the goods were
confiscated before the dicision could
be altered.
Similarly, in all towns the Jews
have run the small shops which
have been closed by the bolsheyiks.
The Jews were the ones who lost
their means Of support, and had to
go to work at new places. The Jew
ish rabbis have been against bolshe-
vism from the beginning and have
exercised great influence over
their people.
On the other hand, it is true that
a large percentage of Jewish intel
lectuals, mostly men who have been
the victims OF the old government,
have become leaders in the bolshe-
vik movement,
This has been explained by the
fact that under the old regime Jews
were prevented from entering GER
tain other lines of activity by laws
which Disseminated against the He
brews The Jews naturally took to
intellectual pursuits and became
writer's, lawyers, and thinkers. They
welcomed any system which would
guarantee them an equal oppo.-
tunity. These intellectuals quickly
adjusted themselves to the boshe-
vik ideas, and owing to their keen
ness and energy, many came out on
top in the new government.
That the majority Of bolsheviks
are Jews is not true, 1t is evident.
Probably they have larger per
centage of representation in gov
ernmental positions than the Gen
tiles, but every effort is made by
the soviet government to prevent the
Issue from arising,
The bolsheviks are trying to pre-
vent discrimination from being made
against the Jews, and have succeed
ed remarkably well. The principal
Jewish problem seems to be along
the borders, where the armies are
fighting. There the reported "po-
grams" are causing bitter feeling.
According to the bolsheviks, the
''pograms, resulting in the massacre
of entire villages, are confined to
the anti-bolshevik side of the line.
The worst Jewish spograms" have
been in the south, mostly in the
Ukraine. Many villages of Jews
have been wiped out, according to
the best information available.

RENTAL PROBLEM
BIG IN GERMANY
BY CARL GRoAT.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Berlin, July 1.-(By maiD Berlin
is facing a serious housing problem.
There are insufficient houses and
rents are vastly high. Out of this sit
uration is developing a demand that
the municipality do something to al
leviate conditions, particularly the
conditions of the poor. Recently the
question became so grave that there
were threats among the populace to
go on a rent strike--that is, to refuse
to pay rent.
While this proposed refusal arose
in part from the eommunistic spirit
of the times, it was in part the ex-
preston of long continued dissatis-
faction with quarters and with prices.
In some of the outlying districts, peo-
pie live in barracks and they have
long since tired OF this mode of ex-
istence.
AS for even the well-to-do the hous-
ing situation is difficult. Just as in
the American national capital during
the war people advertised frantically

chapters of the national organiza-
tlon are formed.
1t is now the purpose of the state
chapters to add to their member
ship those who were invalided home
previous to the formation Of the as
sociation or those who were trans
ferred to other units through the
army replacement system. The near
est relative of any deceased soldier
who served with the division is eli
gible for honorary membership.
Applications for membership in the
Oklahoma chapter should be sent to
Josiah c. Chatfield, secretary and
treasurer, in care OF the Tulsa Dem
ccrat and Times, Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The Oklahoma chapter will hold
its first state convention at Tulsa
on September and s OF this year.
AT that time the chapter will re-
ceive those living in Oklahoma who
served with the division in units
other than the Ambulance company.

The JEWS
In RUSSIA
BY Frank ]. Taylor

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York. July 1s -Bolshevism
is not a revolution by the Russian
Jews for the Russian Jews. as is
popularity believed, according to the
bolsheviks. investigating the way
the Jews line up with regard to boil
shevism leads to the conclusion that
three-fourths of the Jews are against
bolshevism.
This stand on the part of the ma
jority of Jews is probably due to
the fact that the Jews have been the
heaviest losers among the little
bourgeoisie of Russia. This is espec-
tally true of small cities. In the
provincial districts most of the Jews
were buyers and sellers and had
gathered together small fortunes u.s.
ually from five to twenty-five thou
sand rubles. Today that sum is
nothing, but in the old days it rep
resented quite an amount, compara-
lively speaking, enough to enable
operation of small business.
Generally the Jewish merchant
lost this fortune entirely, through
confiscations of stocks in stores, or
of warehouses of wool and cotton
and grains. 1t was the Jew who
lost heaviest because he had most.
While fortunes of merchants were
confiscated, either without payment
Or at low prices set by the state, the
peasant was allowed to sell at mar
ket prices. Confiscation was not
attempted with the peasant, who
was regarded as producer
A typical case was called to the
attention OF the correspondent
while he was interviewing the chief
of the economic soviet in Moscow.
Two Jews from the provinces
reached Moscow and Immediately
put their case before the soviet for
decision. They had been sent by the
merchants of their village, almost
all Jews, all of whom were required
to give up wool and other goods
they had invested in at a price set
by the government. The peasants,
on the other hand, were allowed to
sell at a competitive price.
What the result of the protest

sed by Congress on the recommen-
dation Of the Department Of Labor.
Already hundreds Of requests have
come to the United States Housing
Corporation from present tenants OF
these houses that they be allowed
the privilege OF purchasing them.
The houses were planned and built
under the direction OF leading archi-
tects and are substantial and COM
