The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1919-09-26

The new issue of the American Jew
ish Year Book for the year 1919-192O,
which has just been published by the
Jewish Publication Society of America,
is of unusual interest. 1t has been edited
by Mr. Harry Schneiderman, Secretary
Of the American Jewish Committee,
whose many years of experience with
previous issues of the Year Book has
rendered him eminently fit for the task.
The event of supreme Importance in
the year 5679 was the conclusion OF the
greatest war in history. 1t was therefore
considered urgent to record the salient
facts respecting the participation of the
Jews of various countries in the strug-
gle.
France.
The first article deals with the Par
ticipation of the Jews Of France in the
Great War;" This article, covering near
Iy seventy pages, was written by Cap
tain Sylvan Half, of the French Army,
who exhibits an intimate knowledge OF
facts and gives graphic and vivid de-
scription of the Jewish share in the VIC
tory. Captain Half draws attention to
the interesting fact that in July, 1914,
few days before the declaration of war,
there took place a final examination at
the Ecole Polytechnique, the great ma
tional institution which gives to France
it's best engineers and it's most distin-
guished artillery officers. The first three
on the list of successful candidates were
Jews. This is a striking indication Of
the zeal and capacity Of the Jews in the
defense of their fatherland. The Jew
ish population of France is estimated to
be 10000, of which the native element
is approximately 10000. It is remark
able that during the war there were not
less than eight Jewish generals who
were given very important commands in
the various branches of the army, and
practically all of them were cited and
received the highest honors. There were
numerous colonies, captains, lieutenants
who distinguished themselves in the
posts to which they were assigned. In
the aviation corps number of Jews
rendered yeoman service, many of them
being cited as models Of personal brav-
cry and intelligence. Captain Half OBJ
serves that the three elements of French
Jewry, natives, Algerians and immi-
grants from Russia and Roumania, have
equally contributed to the success Of the
French army.
British Empire.
The story Of British Jewry in the War
is told by the Rev. Michael Adler, D.
S. O., the Jewish senior chaplain, who
was in France from the beginning Of
the war. The Jewish population of Great
Britain is over 100000. The Jews who
were in active service before conscrip-
ton came into force amounted to about
10000, of whom LAO were officers.
In Australia, for example, out of total
Jewish population Of 10000 there were
1000 enlistments and $50 deaths in ac-
ton. From the well-known Jews Free
School, in the East End of London

Five Jews were the recipients of the
Victoria Cross, one Of the highest dis
tinctions conferred upon soldiers. In the
British forces the Jewish officer who
reached the highest rank was Lieuten-
ant General Sir John Monasch, who land
ed in Egypt as colonel, in 1914. Be-
fore the war he had been an engineer,
and served as an officer in the Austral-
ian military forces Subsequently he
took part in the operations in the OAR
danelles, arriving in France as briga-
dier-general, in 1916, was given COM
mand of and trained the 3rd Australian
Division in England as a major general,
and accompanied his division to France.
He achieved renown for his work in the
battle of Messines in June, 1917, and in
April, 1918, he was prompted to rank
Of lieutenant general and placed in COM
mand of the Australian forces on the
western front. He led his men from
victory to victory in the days from Aug
ust 9th, when the Hindenburg line was
broken, until the close of the war, re-
ceiving many distinctions both from the
British and foreign armies, for his sue
cessful leadership. Another Jewish off
Ger to reach the rank of general in the
British army was Brigadier-General H.
J. Seligman, D. S. O., who was regular
officer attached to the Royal Artillery
and went through the war from begin
ming to end. The distinguished artist
Solomon j. Solomon, was specially COM
missioned to supervise the work of cam
outage and in this capacity rendered
unique service.
On sea, the British Jews bore their
full share in the operations in every
quarter of the globe. They have been
known to serve in every action Of i'm
portance and in every kind Of vessel
afloat and under the sea. In the famous
naval operation for the blocking of Zee
brugge and Ostend, which took place in
the spring Of 1918, Jewish officers took
a part, and Lieutenant Commander R.
Saunders was one Of the seven officers
who obtained the D: S. O. in recognition
of gallantry on that occasion. In the
battle of Jutland Jewish warrant Off
Ger was yeoman Of signals on board the
admiral's flagship. In the landing of
the Dardanelles, Admiral de Robeck, in
the course of his despatch describing
the stirring fights at Gallipoli, recon-
mended for gallant service in action,
Lewis Jacobs, Jewish sailor from the
East End Of London. The admiral re-
ported that Jacobs took his boat into
V Beach, unaided, after all the remain
der of the crew and the troops were
killed or wounded. When last seen ia
cobs was standing and endeavoring to
pole the cutter to the shore Whilst
thus employed, he was killed" Major

tions and honors.

The council Of four. with Premier

the German counter proposals ASunday
and while various days have been mem
toned unofficially for replying to the
Germans no agreement has been reached
by the council The latest belief ex-
pressed is that an understanding may
be arrived at at the end If the week.
1t may be significant Of an early i'm
pending agreement that the departure Of
President Wilson for the United States
is reported as probable within ten days
or two weeks.

this may make more rapid progress

The association has been giving its
time during the last few months while
the railroad administration has been
marking time to the collection of data
so as to be ready for hearings that are
likely to be resumed upon rate ques-
tions az soon as the railways are turned
back to the owners.
Details We're arranged for expanding
the membership in places where it is
desired outside Of commercial clubs as
body and so that individual shippers
also may be admitted to memberships
with annual dues Of SO, and SO that or
ganization directly interested IN ship
ping may become members with annual
dues Of $50 where there are less than
20 members. and with dues Of 500 per
annum if there are more than o0 men,
bers. This arrangement will make it
possible for shippers to have renresen-
tation in the association who are not
affiliated with commercial club either
NJ an organization or individually and
any city may maintain its representation
thru its chamber Of commerce or by
single shippers. or in both ways, If there
Is desire to do SO.
The most important question before

from J. r. Campbell. attorney of the
Spokane Chamber Of Commerce who is
now in Washington. that he be allowed
to represent the Montana association and
to add its endorsement in urging ar Il
hearing to begin Tuesday of this week
before the senate committee on inter
state commerce the passage of the Poin-
dexter long and short hand bill otherwise
designated as Senate Bill No. 313.
Two hours OF detailed discussion were
given to an analysis of this important
prnposition. AS q conclusion. Secretary
Goodman was directed to reply rs fol-
lows:
"The Montana Freight Rates asso
citation is ready to accept and approve
of the long and short haul principle as
a general basis for proper arrange
ment Of transcontinental rates and that
it also approves of the provisions of the
Pondexter bill so far as they apply to
rates influenced by water competition
but it finds within the state of Montana
that there are certain competitive mar
ket conditions existing because. Of the
location Of the principle cities and the
manner in which they are served by the
different railway lines SO that the maxi
mum service and the most equitable re-
suits can only be obtained by allowing
some latitude in the making of these
rates under the direction of the inter-
state commerce commission.
