Inquiry Into Jewish
Troubles in Poland

Paris, Sept. 16-Menry Morgen-
THAI, head of the American commits
sion to investigate the treatment of
Jews in Poland, this morning held a
conference with the members of the
American delegation. He will sub
NIT his report within few days.
Maj. Gen. Edgar Jadwin, U. S. A.,
the other member of the commission
has gone to Kiev to continue the in
vestigations there.
1t is known that the Investigations
of the commission did not convince
it that the Polish outrages againa
Jews were inspired by the govern
ment as the members of the com
mission feel that had official sane
ton been given to the movement the
number of victims would have been
greater.
The Morgenthau report, it is fore,
cast, will deplore the raising of the
racial issue, ephasize the view that
the separation of the Jews and Poles
within Poland is impossible and lay
stress upon the necessity of the re-
Cancellation of the discordant ele-
! ments by mutual concessions in the
interest of the new Poland.

ners, is to have an All-Shriners'
band, according to Fred e. LeLaurin.

been organized, and will have the
first rehearsal this evening.
The Shriners have desired band
for some time, realizing that their
ceremonial sessions and pilgrimages
are incomplete with Shriner-
ners-made music. The patrol, under
the captaincy Of Sam. Levine, has
attained great proficiency, and it
is the plan to send band and patrol
, to the national conclave of Shriners
at Portland, Oregon, next June, ad-
vertising Arkansas and Pine Bluff.
| Probably the first public concert of
the Shriners' band here will be on
/, Thanksgiving, when what is expec-
ted to be the biggest ceremonial SEES
| sion ever held in the state will take
place here. Petitions received in
dictate that 200 movies will be in the
class initiated into Shrindom at that
time.
