PERIL

Presiding on Monday night at CaXton
Hall at gathering of English poets
and writer's. organized by Mr.. Thomas
Moult, the editor of Voices. Mr. Israel
Zangwill took the opportunity to ell
tighten these leaders of thought upon
the inwardness of the insidious CAM
paign of antiSemitism now in pro
gress, and of which the recent Times
article had, he said, been the most
shameless episode. Advcrting to the
presence at the gathering of the won-
derfuI young Russo-Jewish violinist
from America. Jascha HcifctZ. about
whom all London was talking. he drew
attention to the remarkable outblurst
of artistic genius which had followed
centuries of crippled life in the Ghct-
tos, and sought to trace It's source to
the energy conserved by piOus genera
tons of ancestors. He pointed ont that
under the present Aliens1 Law few
of the Jewish artists who were delight
ing England would have found admis-
sion.
Replying to speech made later by
Mr.. Austin Harrison. the editor of The
English Review, Mr.. Zangwill said that
he did not object to Mr.. Harrison at
tributing to Jewish financial forces a
large share in the coming economic re-
construction, so long as he did not i'll

DR.. Stephen s. Wise, vice-president of
the organization announced today.
In announcing the gift. Dr. Wise
said that Mrs. Straus had given up all

left for Europe to attend the World
Zionist Conference, opening in Lon Ion
July Fourth. They sailed last Sat
urday oil the Lapland.
DIR. Wise issued this statement. in
making public the gift: 1T cannot
have been an easy thing for Mrs.
Straus to have parted with those Jew
els which are bound up with many &c
the most precious and holy memories
of life time. Mrs St,aus has not
said this, but l am inclined to believe
that her gift aims to indicate t. Jew
ish women in all lands what ought TO
be the measure of their sacrifice on
behalf of the cause of rebuilding the
Jewish Homeland and of bringing
peace and security and honor to those
that are to dwell within its borders.
Again Mrs. Straus has set high ex-
ample.
This offering represents peculiar
ly personal and loving sacrifice upon
the altar of devotion to great and
holy cause. Long before this. Mrs.
Straus' name has been linked with
that of her honored husband in the
service of mankind. Everywhere
Jews and non-Jcws will greet this gift
and its giver."
