disorder.
Tayernkeepers were usually women

ference for relief of Jews all over the
world. The committee Of Jewish Del
egations in Paris has decided that
such conference should meet in No.
vember or December next, either in
Paris or in another European city.
We now address the following ap-
peal to all the committees for the re-
lief of Jews ruined by the war, to all
the organizations which are interested
in the economic problems of Jewish
life Tor which indirectly exercise an
influence on Jewish economic life) as
we'll as to individuals who would de-
vote themselves to this task. We ap-
peal To the relief committees, to the
organizations Of twenty-five coun-
tries Of Europe, America, Asia and
Africa, and we say: "Unite promptly
to formulate clearly and quickly
comprehensive plan, to study all pha-
SEES Of the difficult problem, to ex-
anime the forces capable Of solving
that problem, to outline the system
Of reconstruction, to master all the
assistance! If this is not done at once,
it will be too late"
In addressing this appeal to your
organization, we request your activity
from this moment, even in the prelim-
mary work. We hope that your or
ganization will take decisive part in
outlining the program, as only the ad-
vice and propositions Of those exper-
fenced in the work can be authorita-
tive.
In taking this important initiative
dictated by the sense Of our RESPONSE
bility, we have fulfilled a duty which
devolves upon all Jews. Now, it is
for the relief committee to begin, with.
out any loss Of time, the converting Of
the international relief conferences.
To bring the great work to head,
1t is necessary to have the harmon
ious cooperation Of all relief organ
izatons, the local ones as well as
those who, though far from the de-
vastated countries, are helpful with
donations.
1t is unnecessary to state that in
this case Jewry must work as an or
ganic unit. 1t is only in semblance
that one part helps the other; in re-
atty each part helps itself. The Jew
ish people helps itself as a whole, as
an organism.
As time is pressing, we beg that
you inform US at your earliest con-
venience of the decision Of your or
ganization. The realization Of the po-
grom depends on the rapidity with
which it is begun. Only the initiative
is ours; yours is the work and the re-
sponsibility for the work.

CALL FOR WORLD CONFERENCE
FOR JEWISH WAR RELIEF.

Congress has received from the Com
mittee Of Jewish Delegations at the
Peace Conference, the following COM
munication:
Paris, September 16. 1919.
To the Societies and Committees for
the Relief of Jewish War Sufferers.
At the moment when the general
peace is about to be signed the Jew
ry Of the entire world is faced with
Q task Of extraordinary magnitude. 1t
has to help in the economic recon-
struction Of the brethren who have
been ruined by the battles, deporta-
tons, pogroms, military occupations
and all other horrors Of war. The ma
jority of Jews in Eastern Europe are
In a state Of complete economic ruin,
and great effort Of all Jewish forces
is imperative If the masses are to be
saved It calls not only for enormous
financial means but also for a we'll
studied plan, an organization embrac-
ing all the work Of reconstructon.i
Unfortunately, Jews of different
countries have not yet fulfilled their
duty towards their brethren. While
America and some European countries
have shown an admirable spirit Of
sacrifice in this matter, yet an i'm
portant part Of the Jewish people has.
consciously or unconsciously, main
tanned a passive attitude towards our
starving and dying brethren.
The form Of action which will serve
to efface or diminish the effects Of
the catastrophes has not yet been
evolved, but one thing is certain: the
help must be of enormous proportions
and il must not be on the lines Of an
insufficient and temporary philanthro-
pic character, but must take the shape
Of social and economic work. There are
therefore two big problems to be
evolved; to gather all the funds that
are necessary and to apply them on
the most equitable basis. The two
problems are closely allied. For q vast
plan Of social reconstruction the re-
sources necessary are not the same as
for a simple charity. Where donations
are Of no value, loans should DO
made, and their use could be controll-
ed either by system Of buying on q
a large scale Of articles Of first me-
cessity, or by some other method. The
greater the certainty Of these loans
being returned the easier will be the
raising Of funds for the work.
We find ourselves faced with i'm
mense problems. To solve them ex-
traordinary energy Is needed, coupled
with a profound knowledge Of local
conditions, us well as the extent Of
suffering among the Jews.
II this work is organized and exc
cuted Independently in each country
then it will be done chaoatically and
without system and would only be Of
temporary use. 1t will not prevent the
loss Of millions Of beings, and will by
its catastrophes, jeopardize the
confidence Of the Jews Of all lands.
The committee Of delegations, which
works for the cause Of the Jews Of
Eastern Europe, would like to inter-
vene in time, and, by uniting all forces
to put order in the menacing chaos
and avert an iminent catastrophe. A
catastrophe Of this kind can be ex-
pected II something is not done at
once to establish dictatorship which
will Regulate the concentration Of all
