THE AMERICAN JEWISH
CONGRESS AND THE
POLISH POGROMS.

New York CT. c. B.)-At the
instance of the American Jewish
Congress Executive, a conference
Of hundreds Of representatives
from national and other sorganiza-
tons discussed measures to be
taken to put stop to the whole
sale slaughter Of Jews in Europe
generally and in Poland in par
ticular. Morris Rothenberg, who
presided, drew a picture Of the
terrors to which Jews in Eastern
Europe were subjected. When
the gathering was ready to con-
slider what measures should be
adopted, Rabbi DR.. Stephen S.
Wise announced that he had re-
ceived a letter from Prince Lubo-
mirski, the Polish Ambassador
in this country, which read in part
as follows:
"I learn that number Of the
Executive Committee Of the
American Jewish Congress is
holding conference on Sunday
afternoon. It has seemed to me
that it would be we'll that / should
invite some representatives Of the
Executive Committee of the A.
J. C. to meet with me in the near
future in order that they and /
together may discuss Polish Jew
ish problems. I also beg to sug-
gest that your Executive Com
mittee invite the representatives
Of other Jewish organizations
whom it may wish to have repre-
sented on such conference. The
object of this conference is to
further the cause that we all
cherish, namely the permanent
betterment of relations between
the Polish Government and its
Jewish subjects"
The suggestion Of DR.. Wise to
accept the invitation of the
Polish Ambassador gave rise to
a very heated debate. While
there were many who supported
DR.. Wise in the belief that good
might result from a conference
with Prince Lubomirski there
were others such as Rabbi Gold
blatt and DR.. Newman who were
emphatically opposed to the idea
of deviating from course of pub
lie protest and demonstration.
The conference finally decided to
avail itself of the invitation and
it was left to the Executive to
appoint committee which
should go to Washington to meet

MUSGROVE FORCES WANT PROHIBITION
 ID REMAIN ISSUE
Judge Foster Issues State ment Urging Dry Forces to Line Up In Support
 of Jasper Man

That an effort is to be made by the Musgrove forces to keep prohibition the live issue before the people in the sena- torial campaign is indicated by state ment issued last night by Judge H. B. Foster, campaign manager for L. E. Mus grave.
 Declaring that the brewers and dlstli- lers remain entrenched in Washington and that no sincere advocate of prohiol- tion is justified in folding his hands and assuming that the fight is won, Judge Foster states that he felt it his duty to answer the call made upon him to assist in eiecting Mir Musgrove to the Senate. j.
 The unrest, discontent and even the high cost of living is blamed upon the alleged departure from the people of rep resentatives at Washington, who, it IS alleged, have forgotten the people who elected them. Lack of remedial legisla- tion is held responsible by Judge Foster for alleged unfortunate conditions now existing.
 Judge Foster declares that MT. Mus grave is of and for the people. He re- counts MT. Musgrcve's early lab9rs as a mail carrier in Tuscaloosa and Walker counties, and tells how through thrift hard work and business sagacity the Jasper candidate has managed to accum- ulate enough to keep the wolf away from the family door during the period of old age.
 The statement stresses the importance of legislation on taxation and states that MT. Musgrove through his business ex- perience, is capable of rendering great service in this matter. That the Jasper candidate is interested in the welfare and uplift of his fellowmen is asserted. In conclusion, Judge#Foster calls upon his friends and the people in all walks l of life to aid in electing MT. Musgrove to l the Senate.

DE HART ARRIVES ID SIGN CONTRACT Famous Pitt Back Will Have Charge of Georgia
 Backfield

Athens, Ga, January 31.-(Special)- Jimmy DeHart, famous football star of the Pittsburg Partners, has arrived in Athens where he will sign a contract
 to be assistant coach to H. J. Stegeman for the football season.
 DeHart will remain in Athens for prob-
 ably week or more, getting acquainted
 with the town. and in the meantime take
 a squint over the football material for
 next year.
 The announcement that DeHart will
 beassociated with the Red and Black
 football team has met with approval
 from all of the followers of the Red and
 Black.
 It is stated that the coming of Jimmy DeHart is the first step toward building
 football team at the university tha will rival any in he south. The team last year was the marvel of southern ath- letic experts inasmuch as Coach Stege- man built a wonderful line with mex perienced men in so short time. As a one-year line. it was considered one of the best in this section of the country. | Coach Stegeman is rapidly carving his name in the hall of athletic fame, and 1 is now considered as one of the best football mentors in Dixie.
 Whether the Glenn Warner method oi coaching will be instituted at Georgia next year will remain to be seen. Pop Warner has turned out many noted ath' letes in his career, notable among them being Jim Thorpe, the Indian. Jim De Hart is considered by many sporting critics as Pop Warmers next best bet DeHart had the distinction at Pittsburg I or being the only man to win four let | ters in major sports. He was demof on the gridiron. a third baseman Of nott | on the diamond, a guard of great aDii' | ity on the basketball floor. and won der on the cinder path. He comes high' | ly recommended by Pop" Warner, whS | is one of the greatest coaches in thu country. and the disciple of Pop" come. 1 to Georgia for his new duties with prob ably one of the best foundations to star work on possible for coach to have. l DeHart started his school career a | his home in Reynoldsville, Pa- His mgr school and preparatory work was don' ! at Kiski, where he made an enviapi' record on the gridiron.
 | Jimmy DeHart gave up his athie.i' career in it's very height to enter ths service as an army aviator. He served with Uncle sam's forces with great dis tinction, and after being discharged iron i, the army he returned to Pittsburg t' 1 complete his education, and captalned th' | Panther clan last year.
 l DeHart was for four years Waite
 Camps All-American choice. He is on of the greatest backfield men In th' game Due to injuries he did not par ticipate in many of the Partners game | last year. = l He will make an ideal assistant 10 :, rsnaob Stereman. Coach Stegeman Is :, fe,r-letter man from the University Q | cbicapo. He won letters i'll baseball
 ha sketball. football and track. Il In all probability Coach Stegeman WI I have charge of the Red and Black m
 next year. while DeHart will coach th
