Origin Of the Jazz Band.

The jazz band idea, according to a
French paper. originated In the time
Of the Directory. At the concerts of
the Cat orchestra were twenty cats,
heads in a row on the keyboard of a
harpsichord. The performer by strik.
ing the keys pulled the cats tails,
causing a caterwauling which sounded
like a jazz band.

THE POGROMS IN POLAND AND
THE AMERICAN PRESS

In its issue of August 9TH, the
Nation the weekly published in
this city, in addition to the full
report of Sir Stuart Samuel, had
the following article headed: "The
Times, Associated Press, and New
York Times"
The damning report on pogroms
in Poland made by the British gov
ernment commission headed by Sir
Stuart Samuel has had hard
time finding daylight in the Ameri-
can press. The report is printed
in full in this weeks international
Relations Section; the strange
story of its vicissitudes in the
press is as follows. The Samuel
Commission was sent to Poland by
the British government to investi-
gate the treatment of Jews; its
findings were withheld for months,
as debates in the House Of Com
mons revealed, and were finally
made public on July 5th. The. Jew
ish-language newspapers of New
York and other cities published ex-
tensive cables referring to it. De
spite its sensational and official
character, and despite the large
Jewish population in the city of
New York, the English-language
papers Of New York City at first
printed nothing about the report.
The Associated Press sent no dis
patch regarding the report. The
secretary of the American Jewish
Congress, Mr.. Bernard G. Rich
ards, thereupon wrote to friends
of his associated with two Mey
York City newspapers, which then
printed some Of the material which
he sent them. He also wrote to
the Associated Press on July 9 in
quiring whether it had received
any dispatch on the subject. The
superintendent of the Associated
Press foreign service, Mr.. Charles
T. Thompson, replied on July 10

may note for themselves, did not
declare that the treatment of Jews
was being gradually mitigated" or
that it would "about when peace
has been restored and the pres
ence of foreigners in their country
will shame the Poles into more
civilized treatment of their near
neighbors. Far from declaring
that the "massacres of Jews in
Poland were not pogroms,' it de-
c1ared that 'sthe result Of my in
quiries brought me to the conc1u-
sion that the occurrences at Lem
berg, Ida and Wilma come under
the head of pogrofns in the sense
generally understood in England
he defined as meaning tex
cesses organized by the govern
ment against a portion of the popu-
1ation, or when the authorities took
no steps to restrain those perpe-
trating the excesses, or intervened
at period too late to be effective
in preventing the loss of human
life" The phrase gradually miti-
gated" is not contained even in Sir
Horace Rumbold's covering letter
deprecating criticism of the Poles,
nor in the separate report filed by
one Captain Wright, the only dis
senting member of the Commits
sion. None of the quotations in
the Associated Press dispatch are
from any of these documents.
The New York office Of the As
sociated Press was not responsible
for this inaccuracy. It even went
so far, on July 20, as to send out
a be1ated but accurate five-hundred-
word summary of the Samuel re-
port, based upon a summary given
it by Jewish agency.
But the London correspondent of
the Associated Press cannot be
excused. The cable from the New
York office asking about the
Samuel report may have reached
him late at night when he was
tired. He did not get a copy Of
the report; he merely looked over
his. file of the London Times.
There he found column about the
Samuel report It was mislead-
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1920-08-13

that the Associated Press had re-
ceived nothing, but that, upon hear
ing of the interest in the report,
he had cabled the London office
of the Associated Press, and had
received a summary Of it, a copy
of which I enclose herewith. "
This summary, printed in the New
York Times and other papers, was
as follows:
London, July 10-The report Of
the mission headed by Sir Stuart
Samuel, which was sent by the
British government last September
to investigate conditions in Poland,
has been published, together with
a covering letter by Sir Fl. Rum
bold. 1t deals largely with the
treatment of Jews, which the re-
port says is being gradually miti-
gated and twill abate when peace
has been restored and the presence
Of foreigners in their country will
shame the Poles into more civilized
treatment of their near neighbors. "
The report declares that nlassacres
Of Jews in Poland were not po-
groms, or state-superintended and
authorized s1aughterings, but were
manifestations of popular animus
on the part of ignorant men, misled
in many instances by men of edu-
cation. Tn many cases, the report
says, the police participated in acts
of aggression against Jews. Sir Fl.
Rumbold's covering letter says that,
bad as the condition Of Jews in
Poland may have been or may
still be, it is far better than that
in surrounding countries. Unless
all the information on the point is
entirely inaccurate" he said, "the
massacres of Jews by Ukrainian
peasant bands can find in their ex-
tent and thoroughness no parallel
except in the massacres of Ar
tnenians in Turkey"

Buying of rails was most marked in
the dividend paying issues at gains Of
1 to 8 points, but secondary or reor-
ganized properties of roads, traversing
rich agricultural sections OF the west
and southwest were not neglected.
Oils. steels, equipments and motors
displayed greater stability than at any
time since the recent upheaval and
various speculative specialties in the
tobaccos. food. chemical and utility
groups scored advances.
Altogether the movement went far
toward confirming the impression
that much liquidation of the last fort

purposes to establis htax payments for
the expiring year. The days budget
