WIZARD OF OF" OPENS
TOMORROW Ar MAJESTIC

Through the innovation called
"movical" comedy, introduced by
Hopp. Hadley, the Majestic theatre
ls giving its patrons the novel exper-
fence of seeing a feature picture on
the screen and at the same time en-
joying a musical comedy in which
the star of the picture appears in
person on the stage.
The "movical" comedy opens with
the picture. which Is an elaborate
screen version of THE Wizard OF
o." starring Frank +. Moore, whose
fame as the scarecrow of Morton and
Moore in vaudeville Is we'll known.
At a beautiful cen in the early part
of L. Frank Baum's world-beloved
story, the picture fades from tho
screen and the Spirits of the Corn"
seen on the screen, appea upon the
stage In the form of pretty girls who
sing and dance in regulation musical
comedy style, thus supplying the
| opening chorus OF the "movical"
comedy. The picture again holds
sway until Frank Moore, as the
scarecrow, comes to life in the corn
field on the screen. Suddenly the
scene shifts once more to the stage
and Frank Moore himself ppears in
his famous character.
In this manner musical comedy
numbers are introduced at intervals
during the picture and the shog
closes with a typical musical comedy
finale with the star, the cast and the
full chorus (not forgetting the mule,
the lion and the crow on h stage.
The New Wizard OF Or" will be
the attraction at the Majestic theatre
Thursday. Friday and Saturday, jan
uary %, 23 and "a. Children may

Fool sh Court Sentence.

One of the most frankly foolish and
impossible sentences on record was
that imposed upon a child murderer in
Germany, who was tried at Griefswald
in 1906. He was sentenced to be be-
headed twice, then to receive two
years Imprisonment, and finally to
suffer the loss of all his political rights.

DEATH OF LADY MONASH

A Reuter- telegram from Melbourne,
dated February 9th, announces the
death of Lady Monash, wife of Lieut.
Gen. Sir John Monash, Commander
from May to November, 1918, of the
Australian Army Corps in France.
Lady Monash before her marriage in
1891 was Miss Victoria Moss, younger
daughter of Mr.. Morton Moss, of
Melbourne. During the greater part
of last year she was in London with
her husband, who was in charge of
the repatriation of the Australian I'm
peria1 Force. Their only child is a
daughter, Bertha, who is engaged to
Capt Bennett, of the Australian
Force.
The return of General Monash to
Australia, where he landed on jan
uary 9Th, was the occasion of great
public jubi1ation. Striking demon
STATIONS on the part of the public
of Melbourne were universal, and it
was obvious that the General enjoyed
very great popularity.
When the Federal Parliament reas-
sembles it is taken for granted that
some special tribute will be paid to
Sir John Monash for his great serv-
ices to Australia during the war. it
is expected that both Houses will
pass a vote of thanks to General Mon
ash in the form of resolution framed
by Mr.. Hughes, the Prime Minister.
A further suggestion has been made
that General Monash should be called
to the Bar of the House and present.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD
POLAND AND THE MINORITY
TREATIES.

1t is we'll known that in the Peace
Treaty made by the Allies with Po-
land the rights of three millions of
Polish Jews were established, and it
was stated that the Jews were to be
granted full equality and safety for
themselves and for their religion,
which includes as matter of course
the observance of the Sabbath rest.
The Poles fought against the inclu-,
sion in the Peace Treaty of the clause
relating to the Jews, declaring that
they were prepared to grant the
Jews all rights voluntarily. Alas, it
appears that their attitude is quite
otherwise, for on the 18th of Deem
Der, 1919, law was passed by the Po-
fish Parliament introducing obliga-
tory Sunday rest and the observance
of all Catholic holidays. The Jewish
members of the Polish Parliament
asked that those Jews who strictly
observed the Sabbath should be al
lowed to work on Sunday, namely,
the artisans and workers IN those fac
tories which closed on the Sabbath,
and the Jewish merchants, who, it
was requested, might be permitted
to keep their shops open for five
hours. The Polish Government re-
fused this modest demand of the Jew
ish population, thus forcing the
Jews, many of whom in Poland are
extremely religious, and refuse to
renounce the observance of the Sab
bath, to rest two days a week, their
ultimate object being to economically
ruin the Jewish population and COM
pei them to emigrate.
Thus is the equality of the Jews
in Poland guaranteed by the Allies be-
ing carried out. The Poles observe
cynically that there is no actual men
ton in the Peace Treaty of the ques-
ton of Sabbath rest. They openly
admit that the reason for their deci-
sion is the economic boycott of the
Jews. The religious Jews continue
to keep a strict observance of TWEEN
tyfour hours rest in the week.
1t is perfectly we'll known that
even Socialistic congresses have ap-
proved the right of persons who rest
on the Sabbath to work on the Sun
day, and the example of all civilized
countries is against such a decision
on the part of the Poles. Almost
everywhere Jews who keep the Sab
bath are permitted to trade on Sun
days, and the religious feelings of
the Jews are thus respected. Even
the old Czaristic government per-
mitted it. 1t is very serious ques-
ton whether it is at all in the inter
ests of the Polish state to make mil
lions of its Jewish citizens irreligious.

world which forces the Jews, if they
do not want to starve, to violate the
Sabbath, and it is a transgression of
Clauses 2, 8 and IL of the Peace
Treaty all of which guarantee the in
volatility of the Jewish religion.

Z, One Of the functions Of a newspaper is to give

ton at the Waldorf rf-Astoria, said that
Herbert Hoover would make good
candidate for President of the United
States. was jubiant yesterday over the
boom for Mr.. Hoover.
Mr. Barnes said:
when one speaks OF national eff
ticiency the mind involuntarily fastens
itself on one outstanding figure-Her-
bert Hoover. We have seen his work
reach into the homes of 10000. 900
housewives and later carried into dis
organized Europe, with a network of
distribution directed by his great
| genius.
Herbert Hoover believes in party
organization; that only by cooperation
and organized effort can great issues
be defined with responsibility, policies
planned and organized effort secure
successful fruition AS Republican,
l have complete confidence that that
great party, with war issues dead and
with new issues to be framed on new

Following the announcement of the
Dairymen's League that the milk price
to the distributor for February would
be onehalf cent a quart lower than
the January price, the Sheffield Farms
Company notified its customers Of a
one cent drop in its milk price.
No announcement was Forthcoming

Company or the other distributors,
but DR.. Royal S. Copeland, Health
Commissioner, declared they we're Ger.
tain to follow Sheffield Farms lead.

calls for II cents quart for Grade
B bottled milk, delivered, and 10 cents
for Grade A. Dipped or loose milk
will be sold at 13 cents a quart, COM
pared with the January price Of Ii
cents.
DR.. Copeland attributed the decline
in price to the reduction of the far
mers' quotation and the effect of pub
lie opinion. He said that the Truxton
Dairy Company, which has been sell
ing milk in paper containers at Is
cents a quart to grocers, probably
would drop its price to IA cents,

New York Urged to Take
Lead in Aviation Laws
Lieutenant Kelly Wants State to
Adopt Sections of Inter-
national Convention

At session Of the State Acronauti-
cal Commission in City Hall last night
Lieutenant Ralph Kelly, secretary OF
the American aeronautical delegation
to the peace conference, made an ap-
peal for the State of New York to
adopt certain sections of the lnterna-
tional Air Navigation Convention as
part of the laws of the state.
"New York State should take the
lead in state flying" he said. "With
the various states of the Union en-.
gagged in the same sort of procedure, it
would not be long before the United
States would adopt the convention, and
by so doing would give considerable i'm
petus to commercial aviation"
Lieutenant Kelly said that the United
States government had not ratified
this convention because certain clauses
in it involved the question of state
rights, and until the states have def
nitely solved these questions by aeria
legislation the Federal government
could not ratify the international con
vention.
The commission was presided owe,
by Colonel Jefferson De Mont Thomp-
son. 1t is to report to Governor Smith
and the Legislature on the advisabilit,
Of enacting aerial laws.
