BrandleS Zion Club Hears
Reports; to Aid Ship Canal

Perth Amboy was represented at
New York's vast gathering which re-
ceived Louis Marshall and the rest of
the American Jewish a delega-
ton which has lust returned from
Paris with assurances of friendship
from all the world powers. Morris
Margaretten, delegate for the Bran
deis Zion Club of this city, described
at a meeting here Tuesday night the
work and accomplishments of the
peace delegation as he a heard 1t
from the delegates themselves at the
mass meeting in Carnegie Hall last
Monday night.
The work of the delegation was
dwelt upon by the members of the
local organization. and it was decid-
ed to send Mr.. Marshall a telegram
of congratulation upon the successful
work of the delegates in obtaining a
legally recognized home for the
Jews.
At the meeting here the proposed
ship canal was discussed and the
project approved of.
1t is the purpose of the Brandeis
Zion Club to go IN record in such
civic, national and international af-
fairs, as we'll as such legislative.
aesthetic and racial questions as it is
in the power of its members to enter
tain.
Further than the business n edu-
c~ational matters which were transact
ed the included a strong mu-
steal Old Hebrew and Yid-
dish Folk Songs were rendered to a
sympathetic and appreciative audi
ence. The meeting was the second
which the organization has held.

Potato Crop Estimated
at 319,OOO,OOO Bushels

In spite of a smaller acreage de-
voted to potatoes this ear a good
yield is indicated by the latest report
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, which places it at $780,
74S,000 bushels.
This is less than last years yield
of more than 400, 600, 600, but above
the ~ive-year average of 366, 046, 600.
The decrease is doubtless due, per-
sons in touch with market conditions
say, to the fact that last year farm
ers were disappointed in the prices
they obtained.
This year quotations are higher.
Long Island No. l potatoes sold for
$3.50 to Sc q barrel yesterday, No. 2
for $2.25 to $2.75. New Jersey pota-
toes 1928 to $5.65 a bag, and South
ern potatoes SIS to Sc a bag. This is
about $3.50 lower than the price last
week, when a shortage resulted from
continued rains, which prevented
digging. The price is expected to &c
even lower in the early fall.
The recent reduction in wholesale
figures reached the retail buyer
and, though there is a wide range in
price. potatoes are selling at an av-
erage of foul to five cents a pound.

PHILADELPHIA, July S1.-Rooi
beer made at home may not always
be as innocent as its name. Professor
Charles H. La Wall, lean of the

1T will take gallons to produce the
familiar dizziness" he said, but II
may provide some exhilaration."
II was surprised recently" declar-
ed Professor La Wall, ito notice a
friend coughing a little after drinking
several glasses of homemade root
beer. I became interested and began
an analysis of some of the beverage.
The result was surprising. / found that
the alcoholic content was much great
er than I nae supposed.
IT discovered that after standing
five days the beverage contained SO
per cent of alcohol; after ten days The
percentage jumped to 1856 and a day
or so longer had climbed to LII. The
alcohol came from a natural fermen-
tation."
