The AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

sive waves of Russian, German, and
Austrian armies have swept over the
country in the last four and one-half
years, and now the Poles having
called 100000 additional men to the
colors, are fighting on several fronts
"The result" he said, "is that
there is absolutely no prospect OF
harvest in Poland this year. Horses
and cattle long since have disap-
peared, and all farm machinery has
been carried off by one army or
another. Even if there were seed
for planting, it would be impossible
to do any cultivating.
"America must be prepared to
lend aid now and must prepare to
help Poland through next winter.
Otherwise the state Of Christians
and Jews alike in that country will
surpass in suffering next Winter
anything that has been seen thus
far"

who for eighteen years was head
master of the technical school of the
Alliance Israelite Universelle in

exiled to Constantinople by Djemal

in the Turkish capital he was able
to come to the aid of his coreligion-
lists from Palestine and Syria, and
particularly after the signing of the
armistice, when he enlisted the good
offices of the high commissioner on
their behalf, and prevailed on that
functionary to bear the cost of re-

The New York Bar Association
recently adopted resolution recon-
mending the reelection as a Justice
of the Supreme Court Of that dis
trict of Judge Joseph F. Newburger,
whose term Of office is about to
expire The resolution reads: "As
a judge he has shown marked abil-
ity, and has been exceptionally in
dustrious and always painstaking,
impartial and courteous. He has
been from the beginning constantly
assigned to the difficult and import
ant work at our Special Terms, and
large number of his decisions have
been affirmed by the Appellate Di-
vision and the Court Of Appeals. 1t
seems to be the general sentiment
of our bar that Mr.. Justice New
burgers judicial services have been
eminently satisfactory, and that he
should be renominated and re-elect
ed on a non-partisan basis" Judge
Newburger has been on the bench
of various courts since 1891.
