statement be issued that he had not
discussed the matter at all.
The cablegram states that there is
great alarm in all Polish Jewish cir

tinues undated. Reports have been
received by the Jewish National
Council of Vienna Of pogroms at Maj

pogroms are being planned by the re

MORE
MORE THAN CONVENTIONAL
DEMONSTRATION.

When lay delegates devoutly gave
thanks to God for having had the
privilege Of attending the Twenty
sixth biennial council of the Union of
American Hebrew Congregations in
Boston recently, and ardently advanc-
ed new theories for strengthening Ju-
daism, the Union knew that this was
no ordinary convention. It was a DEM
onstration Of the growing religious
consciousness in American Israel.
Several examples Of the admirable
spirit Of the twenty-sixth council are
here given.
Just before the adjournment of the
convention, as rabbi was about to pro-
nounce the benediction, Mr.. Alfred NJ.
Cohen, president Of the Board of Gov
ernors Of the Hebrew Union College,
arose and said, at is customary that
these proceedings close with a bene
diction. Is it amiss for a layman to

eye Of attending this convention 2"
Mr. David Philipson, of Cincinnati,
then pronounced the benedicition.
Mr.. Benno Lewinson, who represent
ed Temple BETHEL, of New York,
made the following statement: "A
rabbi said to me this morning, "this
convention is an investment in Juda-
ism!" ventured TO say to him in re-
ply that much as that is, it means
more, it is an investment in friend

details Of the pogroms, which like
some uncomfortable prairie fire have
been sweeping over Europe, and par
ticularly in Poland and Galicia, des-
troying thousands of beings and mil
lions Of dollars worth Of property.
In the latest cable, which was filed
in Copenhagen on May 18th, it Is re-
ported that new and terrible pogroms
are raging everywhere in West Call
cha. At Lublin, on May LIST, recruits
of the Polish Legion, reinforced by
students Of the Commercial and High
Schools, raided the Jewish quarter.
The Jews tried TO defend themselves
but, being unarmed, their resistance
was easily overcome. The police not
only failed to interfere, but in many
instances, encouraged the rioters to
additional excuses. The local militia
plundered every Jewish shop. They
rioting, were forcibly detained in its
barracks by the rioters.
On May 4th, a crowd surrounded
the town hall at Raoszicw and clam
ored for better distribution of food.
The municipal authorities, addressing
the crowd, said that ample food sup
plies would be found in the Jewish
quarter. The mob rushed thither.
plundered every Jewish shop. They
stormed the synagogue, sullied the
Holy Scrolls. Sixty Jews were severe
ly injured in these riots which did nor
end until martial law was proclaimed.

to provide Miss Clark with one Of the
most liquant roles in which she has
been seen on the screen in many
months. The photoplay has much en-
joyable comedy and there arke num-
erous dramatic moments that grip and
hold the attention of the audience.
Miss Clark is supported by excep-

A Philadelphia boy, IL years Of age,

brought only incidentally to the atten-

In New York City there is being
formed an organization under the
name Of the Soldiers, Sailors and Ma
rines' Protective Association, with
Red as Secretary and having head
quarters at the Rand School Of Social
Science.
These are signs of the times. They
indicate very strongly the necessity
for greater alertness on the part of
educators, public men and business
organizations throughout the country
in order that certain dangers may be
avoided and our national institutions
not further endangered.
They call for the thoughtful consid-
Grafton of every discharged soldier
who is invited to join any association
whatever or to express his opinion on
national questions.
1t is we'll to know who and what
such an organization is designed to
protect.
The average American soldier is
able quickly to discriminate between
protection and exploitation. We are
inclined to think that this new social
ed Protective Association" with its
Red Secretary, is likely to assue more
the character Of society for person
al profit and self-aggrandizement than
that of an organization to benefit the
soldier in any way whatsoever In
any event, 1t has not mark of patriot
ism about It,
If the motive is to capitalize the dis
content and disgruntled state of mind
of an occasional discharged soldier,
the association is vicious thing and
should be done away with. If in any
way the purpose is to make industrial
conditions less stable than they now
are or to increase the state of unrest

VOTE YES ON THE GOOD

Saturday, June 14th, there will be
a special election in Maysville and

20 cents on the 800 for good road

The annual income from the levy
for road purposes is not sufficient to

for road purposes by special levy. If
this is not done Mason county will for
