PADEREWSKPS NEWSPAPER
PRAISING AND DENOUNC-

Warsaw: Especial Cable to I. ]. P.
b. A strong anti-Semitic propaganda
has been launched in the local press.
The statement is freely made that but
for the large Jewish population in Vii
ma, the city would become Polish ter
ritory.
Paderewski's newspaper seems to
form an exception to the rule. One Of
its correspondents interviewed Abra-
movitch, Vilna's Prime Minister, who
stated concerning the Jews of the city
as follows: ut is true that the Jews
are not fond Of the Poles, but individ-
ual Jewish merchants would prefer to
deal with Warsaw rather than Kovno."
Otherwise, the correspondent claims
that the Jews Of the city do not favor
their annexation to Poland, as may
seem from the fact that they are send
ing their children to Russian schools
in preference to Polish.

Jewish masses, carried out by military
groups of the Red army, with the will.
ing help of all the anti-Semitic mob.
"The only hope of the Jews is now
emigration to Palestine. Even in the
Jewish Socialist circles, which were
always Indifferent to the Palestine
idea, it is now generally recognized
that solution of the Jewish problem
in Russia without a Jewish Palestine
is quite impossible. The San Reno
resolution consequently was received
with the deepest joy and gratitude by
the whole of Russian Jewry, which
gave expression of these feelings, in
spite of all prohibitions and at serious
risk in public manifestations.
"The only reference to Jews in the
Bolshevist press is in the perpetual
charges brought against Zionists.
"The Zionists are commonly stigma
tized as British agents. whose func-
ton it is to win sympathy for Engr
land among the Jews"

POGROM IN PLOTNITZ NEAR
PINSK-NAMES OF VICTIMS.

Warsaw: (By I. J. P. b. Jewish
newspapers print an appeal to Ameri-
ca from the Jewish inhabitants Of
Plotnitz near Pinsk. 1t is signed by
Rabbi Itzchok and a committee. The
appeal reads as follows:
"Dear children, brothers, sisters and
friends in America:
"On Saturday, Chol-ha-Moed Suk-
koth, the murderous army of General
Balachovitch made a pogrom in our
city, killing forty people, and robbing
the rest Of the population. No words

EMIGRATION TO AMERICA IN.
CREASING.

Jewish emigration to the United
States is increasing so rapidly that
the quarters occupied by the Hebrew
Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Socie-
ty here are too small to handle the
crowds. The local press complains
about the long waiting to which emf
grants are subjected, and Of the made
quacy of the service rendered by the
organization.

The Terrible Plight Of the Jews in
Soviet Russia

Despite the fact that pogroms are
not tolerated in Soviet Russia, and
every attempt to incite one portion Of
the population against the other is
strongly suppressed, the Jewish prob
lem in that country has never been so
acute, according to an official bulletin
of the World Zionist Organization. II
asserts that Jewish party leaders Of
the Left who at first approved Of the
Soviet regime now say openly that for
Jews there is practically no room in
Russia.
"The stringency of the economic
condition has created an ugly wave Of
anti-Semitism" declares this bulletin,
a copy of which has been received by
the Zionist Organization of America.
"The Jewish population was the
only 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
effect Of these on the Jews may easily
be estimated when it is remembered
that before the war about 66 per cent
of the Jewish population was engaged
in trade and commerce, while the re-
manning 81 per cent made a living as
artisans and factory workers. The
greater part of the ruined non-Jewish
commercial classes were easily able to
find livelihood in the field Of agricul-
ture, but to the Jews this path was
completely closed. Every attempt to
settle the Jews as farmers in the vii
lagos came to grief owing to the oppo-
