Despite the fact that pogroms are

every attempt to incite one portion Of

strongly suppressed, the Jewish prob
lem in that country has never been SO
acute, according to nn official bulle-

1t asserts that Jewish party leaders
of the left who ut first approved Of
the Soviet regime now say openly that
for Jews there is practically no room

condition has created al ugly wave of
anti-Semitism." declares this bulletin.

1.-The Jewish population was the on
ly section which was ruined almost
completely by the naturalization of
commerce. The Soviet Government. as
is well known. passed measures sup
pressing all private trade; and the ef-
feet of these on the Jews may easily
be estimated when it IL remembered
that before the war about &c per cent.
of the Jewish population was engaged
in trade and commerce, while the re-
manning "a per cent. made living as
artisans and factory workers. Th"
greater part of the ruined non-Jew-
ish commercial classes We're easily
able to find a livelihood In the field

path was completely closed. Every at

the opposition Of the peasants. II must
be remembered that even the Soviet
Government has not introduced the
naturalization of the soil. that on the
contrary the right of property in land
has been declared to be still existent

are jealous of every foot of ground.

NIT new settlers, especially Jews. The
Soviet Government thought 1t best not
to enter into any arguments with the
peasants about the Jews. - Z
Last March the decree r-ksrsiing

With dried and yellow sheaves.

FABRICS FOR COOL CLOTHES
Handkerchief Linen One of Favorite
Summer Wear MateriaIs-Organ-
dies and Swlsses Delightful.

The question of material is quite as
important as that of color in an effort
to look refreshingly cool. Handker-
chief linen has been voted one of the
coolest fabrics and, of course, crisp
organizes and Swisses are delightfully."-
dainty. Wolfe and batiste are also ia
vOred in warm weather and net and
lace frocks are sheer as we'll as ex-
tremely mOdlsh this season. Heavy
linen, though a summer fabric, is Oft
en- uncomfOrtably warm and makes
its biggest successes at those fOrtu-
nate resorts where really hot weather
never penetrates.
Summer silks are usually warmer
than summer cOttOnS, and the prob
lem of the woman who spends her
summer in town is indeed hard one.
Many conservative women do not ap-
prove of white or pastel shades In the
business or shopping sections of the
city. Sheer fabrics are not taboo, how
ever, and organdies. vOiles and Swiss
es In subdued tones make frOcks that
are cool both in appearance and In
reality. OF course, navy Is an old ia
vorlte in these materials and it Is oft
en- dotted with white In organdie and
Swiss. Other attractive cOlOrS, such
as Copenhagen blue, are similarly dot
ted. and they are easier to get than
the navy and white combination. which
is so popular that 1t is very scarce in
the shops.
