connection with the campaign are paid
out of private funds, raised by the
Jews of this country. During the war
the Jews have given untold millions to
their less fortunate brothers in addi.

1t is probably because of the fact that
they have taken care of their own that
the tragic condition of the Jews in Eur,

from the consent Of the governed; that
no right anywhere exists to hand peo-

that the world can be AT peace only If
its life is stable, and that there a
be no sd tlity where the will is in re-
bellion, where there is no tranquility
of spirit and a of justice, of free
dom and of right.
