PALESTINE TO BECOME
CULTURAL AND EDUCA-
TIONAL CENTRE.

portant the Zionist Conference
has yet had. The day was de-
voted to serious debate on prac-
teal questions. Much time was
given to the problems of Jewish
education. 1t is the resolve of
the Conference that Palestine
should Immediately become the
cultural and educational center
for the whole of Jewry. An eff
fort will be made on the part of
the Zionist Administration in
Palestine to foster and direct
Jewish education in the Diaspora!
One hundred thousand pounds
was voted as an initial sum for
the Hebrew University in Jeru-
salem, the construction of which
will be proceeded with without
delay. The university will have
special departments for the his
torical and national investigation
of Palestine, Jewish science, He
brew and oriental cultures and
Individual sciences.
The situation of the Jews in
Eastern Europe and the necessity
of World Congress called forth
heated discussions. The Confer
ence finally decided in favor of a
Congress and a Commission of
three will be elected to prepare
plans and organize a Committee
for the calling and establishment
of Jewish World Congress on a
democratic basis which should
have representative authority to
speak in the name of the whole
Jewish people. The Congress
will be called upon to support in
the rebuilding of Jewish Ma
tional Home in Palestine, and
will be expected to devote itself
to the reconstruction of East-Eu-
ropean Jewry and the protection
of religious, political and ma
tional Jewish rights.
very interesting was the de-
bate devoted to the finances of
the Zionist organization. The
report of Boris Goldberg revealed
that the Zionist organization was
at present involved in monthly
expenditure of fifty thousand
pounds in Palestine alone. This
amount is equal to that which the
British Administration of Pa1es-
tine is now costing the English
government. This expenditure
has now been increased to eighty
six thousand pounds. AS one of
the means of increasing the Zion
ist income, the Conference de-
cided to raise the price of the
sheke1 from twenty-five cents to

$15,000,00o, which 1t has recently done and of which the committee has chosen to report fayorab1y only s12.oO0,0oo.
 There are now 23,S4o former sol dters, physically and vocationally dis abled, who are being rehabilitated and put back on an economic footing through the vocational education and rehabilitation schools of the board in various parts of the country. In ad- ditton to these there are 2,3ss men already enrolled in such schools, who for personal reasons have temporarily suspended their courses, many be- cause their physical condition re- quires rest Recently there have been reported to the board some 92,000 applicants for Federal rehabilitation out of the forces mobilized for the war and wounded in the nation s battles. Of these it is estimated about 82,o00 will be favorably re- ported on, and the majority of that number enrolled in technical and aca dernic rehabilitation schools in the course of the next month of two. One of the principal obstacles al | this time is a lack Of accommoda- l tions, but many new schools are be- 1 ing rapidly supplied. The city o1 | HOlyOke, Mass, IS Du1lulilS u NoCoI | tional educational school with a view 1 to accommodating 8 large number O, 1 these pupils and several other c1t1e' | have similar projects on foot. II Holyoke it is believed the school vii l become permanent, and that a 1arg' percentage of more than 300,000 dis
 abled annually in industry will late find the school a haven there.
 The Federal Board for vocatfona
 educat ton also has on it's hands tn re-education and bringing back t health of some 35,S00 tubercu1a cases that have come out of the war
 Much of this work will be done i
 cooperation with the Public Healt Service, but the state of health of
 large percentage of these is sufficient Iy good to warrant going direct1 ahead with their re-education and t
 this end about five or six sanitariur
 schools are being constructed.
 Several of these will be in NeN
 Mexico, which commonwealth ha taken 8 marked interest in the car 1 of these cases.
 Many Of these schools and san!
 tariuns, of temporary but ample con
 struction, are already under wa. During the last month there. hay been BIO graduates from the genera vocational courses conducted by tn ; board. Some of these are no , ready to take up additional we cationa1 courses.

THE PYTHuA.

At sacred Delphi, the Pythia, or prophecies, had to be a girl of hon orable birth; and a virgin. In the earliest times, before Homer sung, she was a young girl; in later times she had to be over fifty years or age, but wearing a girls robes in memory of the ancient custom. The solemn ity and magnifcence of the Temple of Apollo cannot be overdrawn. On the walls were inscribed in letters of gold the sayings of the Wise Men of f Greece, and more especially the cele- brated Know Thyself!' In the temple was the golden statue of Apol- 10; beneath 1t the altar of the eternaa
 fire. The oracle proper was in a cleft in the ground in the innermost sanctuary, to which no one but the priests and the interpreting poet were
 admitted. From this cleft the cold vapors rose which produced the ecs- tacy and frenzy of the prophecies or Pythia. Over the cleft stood the
 lofty golden tripod.

ARGENTINA HAS
 STARTED LIVELY CAMPAIGN SCRAP

Buenos Aires, Jan. 29-The politi- cal campaign for the election of new members of the Argentine Chamber of Deputies next March has begun with acts of violence.
 The opening gun" of the cam paign, advertised to be fired by the democrata pregresista party at a mass meeting held at the San Martin thea tre, turned out to be real bomb ex- ploded in the midst of the meeting by political opponents of the party. No one was seriously injured, although there was a panic.
 Later when those who attended the meeting were marching down street, they were attacked from a cafe by a group of political opponents who | threw flower pots, plates, glasses, chairs and tables at them, provoking some retaliation in kind.
 On the following night the same l theatre was packed by members o1 the Radical party, the one now ir power. Street manifestations follow | ed and some of the manifestants
 stoned the office of a newspaper op' | posed to the administration.

Charleston, W. va., Jan. 29-Com- posed entirely of former service men, the West Virginia constabulary, after sax months of preparation and train ing. has. taken the field to enforce the law. Although recruited to only one half or its max1mum strength, the men on duty are fully equipped, and according to their officers are ready tor any emergency.
 Under the command of Colonel Jackson Arnold, the men have been organized into provisional companies and assigned to 15 sub-patrol sta ttons. These cover all trunk-line railroads in the state, for the purpose of facilitating mobilization should 1t become necessary to move the entire eorce to some point in a hurry. At each sub-statten from three to five men will be on duty. All will De mounted on horses except the patrols at Weilsburg and Martinsburg, who will be equipped with motorcycles.
 Tho service has already attracted q natives of 23 of the 55 counties in West Virginia. They are picked men, whose intelligence. courage and endurance have been proved to the satisfaction of Colonel Arnold.
 The bill creating the state constabu- ary became a law six months ago.

 France. The eighteen months from August, 1914, to February, 1918, cost 941, 0G0 definitive casualties-killed in action, died Of wounds, missing and prisoners. For the rest of the war thirty-four months definite casualties were 885, ,000. France, roughly, suffer ed half her casualties ln the first third of the war, and up to two months pe- fore America entered it.
 ''The most dearly won victory which France achieved was the first battle Of the Marne- Total losses for August and September, 1914, were 329,000. This number, of course, in- cludes relatively large proportion of prisoners.
 ''None of the above figures, it mus, be rem embered, takes into account the wounded. By adding to the mum Der of dead-1, 3S3 2, ,000-the 507, ,80t prisoners alive at the close of the war and the 2,s00,oo0 poi1us wound ed in action, one attains a grand French casualty total of 4,s9o,s00."

CONGRESS FAILS
 10 MAKE GOOD ON TAX PROMISE
Vocational Training Board Has Need For More
 Money
$12, 900, ,OOO MORE HAS
 BEEN REQUESTED
President Urged That Mon ey Be Granted In
 First Place

Washington, D. C., Jan. 2e.-The light of day is beginning to fall on the political machinations of the Re- publican majority in Congress with the reporting to the House by the Appropriation Committee of an $82,- 100000 deficiency bill. Last summer, and again at the Christmas recess, the majority leaders made loud claims of their savings to the taxpayer. Now they are beginning to pay some Of their curtailed notes.
 Probably the best instance of what | Congress has actually done by way of | saving money is in the appropriations | for the care of the men wounded in l the great war. The Federal Board for l Vocational education particularly has 1 had to stand the bumps incident to l the record Congress was trying to make for itself in the campaign year. The new deficiency bill recom- mends the granting of an additional SIP 100000. This is out of the S15,- l O00,000 requested by the board to l carry 1t over until July 1920, and re- l presents the second deficiency appro- 1 priation the board has had to ask l since last summer for the retrafning | of the country's wounded.
 1 In July last Congress took issue with l 1 the appropriation in it's Sundry Civii 1 Bill down to $6,O00,000 with which 1 the men disabled in the war some | 150,0 or more-were to be rehabi1i- l tated and put back in the economic ! machinery of the country. Realizina | the utter inadequacy of this sum 1 President Wilson lost no time in ye- toing the entire Sundry Civil Bill and | returning it for a larger appropria-
 ton, which was forthcoming, Con,
 gress did not at that time add al that was really necessary, but repass.
 ed the measure with the addition ot
 several million dollars. In describing
 the situation at the time the Presi dent said:
 "Inasnuch as there are already
 more than 4,000 disabled soldiers
 sailors and marines in training, anj
 inasmuch as another 4,0O0 will b.
 put into training now that tn:
 amendment to section has become
 law, it is clear that even at the ratt
 of only $50 a month an amount ap
 proximating s8,0O0,O0O will be re
 quired for the mere support of thes
 men, and that under the present ap
 propriation nothing will be availabl | for their tuition and travel, or fo placing them where they can ear1
 a, living, and 1t will be impossible t
 meet the needs of the new thousand
 who are every week seeking tn
 benefits of the rehabilitation act"
 Since that time in November, 1918 the board has had to ask for 1 deficiency appropriation of $10,000,
 900, and for the present deficiency Q

 DIED SINCE ARMJSTICE.

''Six hundred French officers and 5000 men have died in the year fol- lowing the armistice of wounds re- ceived in battle,'' says The Home Sector, the ex-soldiers' magazine con ducted by the former editorial coun- ci1 of The Stars and Stripes. Frances total war deaths, according to the most recent official statement of 1oss- es issued at Paris, are thereby brought to 1,3S3,000.

had stopped in front Of the hangar

dragging into il a stocky man who
fought and bit and struggled with
all his strength But as they finally
overpowered him and bundled him
into the car he evidently saw Harry
Underwood for the first time. His
resistance ceased, he went limp in
the hands of the men holding him.
Then with an unexpected spring he
leaped straight for Mr.. Underwood s
