Therefore those who wish to remain
in Palestine must stay in the Army.

ENTIRE JEWISH COMMUNITY
SLAUGHTERED IN
HUNGARY.

Budapest (By I. ]. P. B.)-Every
lew in the town of Dissel, Hungary,
with the exception of the Rabbi,
was killed in the pogrom which oc-
Cured there recently. Two Chris
tians who lived with Jews were
killed by mistake. At the beginning
of the pogrom, the Rabbi OF the
town was arrested on the charge
that he had attempted to bride SOL
diers to permit him to flee. He was
later freed.
Soldiers sent to put stop to the
slaughter themselves took hand in
the outrages committed upon the
Jewish population. 1t is reported
that two Jewish women drowned
themselves rather than submit to
the indignities forced upon them by
the pogromists.
In another Hungarian city. To-
pe1tcha, there also occurred po-
grom in which three Jews were
killed and thirty wounded. Almost
a hundred Jewish shops were loot
ed resulting in damages amounting
to 100000 Kronen.

LONDON MORNING POST
AGAIN CREATING ILL
FEELING AGAINST
THE JEWS.

London (By ~. P. B.)-The
anti-Semitic London Morning Post
has come out once more with pro-
vocatory article against the Jews, in
which it seeks to place blame for
bringing about the English railway
strike upon them. While admitting
that no Jew is in any way connected
with the railroad workers, the Morn
ing Post tries to give the impression
that the Jews are responsible for the
strike, because, it declares, the Jew
ish influence everywhere is in favor
of internationalism and anarchy. At
a time when public opinion is al
ready so much wrought up on ac-
count of the strike inconvenience,
such an article is apt to cause the
Jews much harm.

declared that England intended fully
to keep her promises to create in
Palestine homeland for the Jews.
The present political status in Pal

the masses of Jews who were sup

waiting anxiously for Palestine to be

OPPOSES ARTICLE 10
Senator Cummins Considers Re.
vised Covenant Faulty.
'owan Declares That Two Of His
Three Main Objections Have
Been Removed.

Des Moines, Iowa, April 29.-Ac.
cording to United States Senator A. B.
Cummins, the senate will not ratify
the new covenant of the League OF
Nations unless Article 10 is modified
The Iowa senator was one of the
signers of the senatorial round robin,
opposing the original draft Of the
league covenant.
Article 10 is the section which re.
quires the nations signing the cove.
nant to preserve the territorial in.
tegrity and existing political indepen-
dence of all members of the league.
II have not had time to examine
the new covenant carefully" said SEN
ator' Cummins, but granting that the
press copy is correct. it is plain that
two objections urged. against the
original covenant have been removed
and third still remains.
"The covenant would be. much
stronger, with Article 10 removed.
People will not fight unless they be.
lieve they are justified in fighting. It
is unwise and futile to say in advance
that we will fight against external ag-
gression when the matter in dispute
is unknown"

Washington, April 29.-The govern
ment is preparing to relinquish control
next month of American cable lines
and to restore the telegraph and tele
phone systems to private ownership
imme diately after enactment by con
gress Of laws necessary to safeguard
the properties.
Postmaster General Burleson, as di
recting head of the wire communica
! ton service, taken over as q war
measure, announced he had sent to
President Wilson a recommendation
that the cables be turned back forth.
with, probably not later than May 10.
Later the postmaster general gave out
q statement saying he would recon-
mend that the telegraph and telephone
service be returned to private owners,
contingent, however, on financial pro-
lection to be obtained from congress.
It was explained by Mr.. Burleson
that no legislation was necessary in
the case of the cable company prop
critics. Lessening traffic borne by the
cables and other circumstances arising
from transition to peace basis, Mr..
Burleson said, had resulted in his rec
ommendation to the president that the
lines be no longer operated by the
government ~
Land Lines Up to Congress.
In the matter of land service, how
ever, the solution OF the problem will
be put squarely up to congress Com
ing SO soon after the recommendation
in his annual report that the tele-
phone and telegraph lines become gov
eminent owned at the conclusion of
peace, the postmaster generals state
ment created unusual interest in some
quarters. ag H
Postoffice department officials who
have aided in control of the companies
have said that few of them could
weather the financial storm if the
properties were turned back without
remedial legislation. Some officials
said that while the properties must
be returned in the same physical con-
dition in which they were taken over,
to do this now, without added revenue
to meet wage demands and increased
cost of operation, would wreck the
entire industry.
