ceVeu Ill Jerusalem is given Dy n.
Seelman in the Palestine Hebrew peri
odical "Ha-aretz," of April 28th. 1t is
entitled "Yesterday.")
The day began with a fast. The Rab-
bis of Jerusalem, Ashkenasic and Sc
phardic, had decreed a day Of fasting
for "The Destruction of the Temple
and the burning of the scrolls and the
dissertation Of the name of God" Jews
rose in the morning depressed and
broken-hearted. Many shops were clos
ed, the synagogues were filled with
worshippers. They read prayers, chan
ted psalms, and waited for the SER
mons of the Rabbis which were to be
given at three o'clock. And the situa-
ton was so depressing.
We know that our defenders cabot
insky and his comrades in the Jewish
Self-defence) had been returned from
midway; they had not gone down to
Egypt, but instead were sent up to
Acre. Why? To serve their sentence.
We were aware that many men, charg-
ed with murder were set free, because
their guilt was not established, or be-
cause they had fled. We were aware
that young Jew, Malcha, was SEN
fenced to Is years of penal servitude
because he did appear before the
Court and his guilt was proved; we
heard throughout the day of the evil
dence of Arabs before the Court of In
quiry, the evidence of the standard
bearer on the day of the pogroms, the
evidence Of an Arab policeman, the ev-
idence Of an Arab director Of school,
The evidence of the Reuter- Agent.
Who had a thought for San Reno
on that day? Who could think on that
day of fasting and mourning, of help
coming from distant sphere
Bloody battles were raging through
out the country. Upper Galilee was in
danger, and war with the Bedouins
was now extending to Lower Galilee.
A colonist Of Milhamiah, was killed.
Our skies were streaked with red
stripes, our hearts quivering with
fear and uncertainty.
And at o'clock a telegram bear
ing happy message was received by
the Zionist Commission.
At 3 o'clock Mr.. Ussishkin arrived
at the synagogue Of Ychuda HahassiG
to announce to Jerusalem that the
redemption of Israel was at hand.
But even before Mr.. Ussishkin ar
rived at the synagogue the news had
spread in all the city. In an hours
time all sorrow and sadness disap-
peared, all came back to life, every
eye glistened, every gloomy face
frightened, and the people swarmed
after Mr.. Ussishkin to the "Hurva."
The "Hurva" is chosen as the place
from which the message is announced.
In the "Hurva" a thirsty public
was waiting, people who had tasted
all day, old, tired, exhausted, pray
ing, reading, "Veyahel."
Suddenly a new public stormed the
"Hurva," the synagogue was filled
with Jerusalem youth, Zionists, new
Jews among all parties. As the Rabbi
was finishing his sermon, the party
entered, led by Ussishkin.

Motor Fire Engines,

The FIRE horses are gradually pass
ing in the District. Three new motor
engines have come and will be put into
service within a month. This will mean
the passing of eighteen horses, leaving
only seven horse-drawn companies. At
the present rate Of motorization the
District will have an absolutely horse
less fire department in three or four
years. 1t will be more efficient, though
less picturesque. The motor fire engine
is the ideal apparatus, with marked ad-
vantages over steam engines drawn by
horses. 1t can get to the FIRE quicker
and it can start work sooner on arrival
on short runs. It can move at tor
speed on any length of run. The Dis
trict becomes more and more surely
safeguarded from damage by FIRE as its
apparatus is raissi to this basis Of
modern machinery.

Street Dangers Undiminished.

In yesterdays Star was printed the
news that four people had been injured
by automobiles within a few hours pre-
vious to the time Of publication. Two
were knocked down together at Yer
mont avenue and 14th street. Another
was hit near Scott Circle and fourth
was hurt on 50th street northeast. Two
of the four were grown, one was boy
of fourteen and the fourth was girl
of five years. Fortunately none of
them was hurt seriously. This is not
an unusual list Of motor accidents.
The fact is that every day in the
streets of Washington one or more of
these mishaps occurs. The Districts
ratio of traffic casualties is high. Its
roll Of deaths is rapidly lengthening.
Both pedestrians and motorists are
careless. People step off the curbs into
the streets without looking, and motors
are driven heed1essly and too rapidly
across intersections. Carefully drawn
traffic rules do not lessen the danger.
Some time ago hearings were held be-
fore the Senate District committee on
bills designed to lessen the danger by
stricter regulations and by
establishing a traffic court. Nothing
has yet been accomplished toward leg
islation. The hope is that Washington
will soon have a model traffic law, with
adequate means for its enforcement,
and with penalties for violation that
will insure eventual safety in the
streets. At present the responsibility
rests largely upon the pedestrian, who
must watch and guard himself at all
times and in all places against the
recklessness and speed Of compare
lively few motorists who endanger all
street users.

Suffrage.

Attorney General Allen Of Massa-
chusetts has ruled that the women Of
that commonwealth cannot vote at the
next election unless the state consti-
tuition has been amended to that effect
or the federal amendment has been
finally ratified, even though Massachu-
sets has cast its vote for ratification.
This is a reasonable decision against
which no complaint can be brought by
the most ardent supporter Of woman
suffrage. The federal amendment has
been ratified by a number of states
which have not admitted women to the
ballot.
Federal ratification in season for the
election is still in doubt. There ap-
pears to be no chance in Delaware, the
legislature having closed its special
session. The governors Of Vermont and
Connecticut remain obdurate to the
