latlOns with the Mexican federal gov ernment. /
 General Alvaro Obregon is under technical arrest in Mexico City. Tn connection with the arrest, Roberto Cejudo, the rebel leader in the state of Sonora, has proclaimed the supreme power of the republic, of Sonora.
 A manifesto issued by the state con- gress declares that while the state has seeded, it will return to the Mexican republic on guaranties from the na- tlonal administration that there will be no infringement of it's rights.
 The secession of the state oR Sonora is due, according to officials, to ths action of President Carranza in order ing federal troops into the state. The customs houses and all property of the Mexican federal government have been seized in the name of the republic of Sonora.

WORK FOR THE RABBINI'
CAL CONFERENCE.

What action will this years
Rabbinical Conference take in re-
gard to some of the very weighty
questions and problems that con-
front American and World Jewry?
There is, for instance, the matter
of the vacant pulpits, of the lead
erless congregations in this coun-
try, about which we have recently
heard so many plants, and OF
which we have read such varied
explanations. There are two
ways Of remedying the evil.
First, to bring together the rabbi
less pulpits of the smaller con-
gregations, and the pulpitless rab-
bis of the larger communities,
rabbis who have grown old in
the service and have been retired.
While the duties devolving upon
a rabbi in a large congregation
may be too arduous for the older
men, the small congregation in
the small city with it's placid,
even-tenored, even-toned life, fur
nishes a most congenial atmo-
sphere for their activities. 1t af-
fords them the opportunity for

Press dispatches announce that
Paderewski, very much discour-
aged, has resolved to close. his
career both as musician and
statesman. If he will now devote
his time to a study of how to
make amends for the wrongs his
compatriots have done the Jew
ish people, we shall forget and
forgive his past.

The American Israelite adj
ministers a well-deserved rebuke
to the Hebrew Standard of New
York for what the Israelite calls
its "Yiddische Chutspah" in
speaking of the convention of the
Central Conference of American
Rabbis. as "this years annual pic
MIC" If we mistake not, this
has been the Standards way of
referring to it every year. It is
just sample of its editors brand
of humor.

A DILEMMA.

Observant Jews will be in a
dilemma this year, when the
'Three Weeks between the Sew
enteenth Of Tamuz and the Ninth
of Alb (July 4 to July Is, 1920
come around. Tn commemora-
ton of the Hurban or destruction
of the Temple and the loss of
Jewish independence which oc-
Cured at these dates the Jew was
wont to mourn, abstaining from
festivities, weddings and celebra-
tons.
What is to be the attitude to
the 'Three Weeks" from now
on? Has not the peace Confer
ence at San Reno, by assigning
to England the mandate for a
Jewish Palestine, marked the
commencement of the Deliver
ance? How then shall the Jews
continue to observe the days as
a period of mourning?
And yet we maintain that for
the present at least, it is just as
we'll to follow the traditional OBJ
servances of the period. For the
report of Jewish suffering in Eu-
ropean lands is enough to cast a
damper upon the most optimistic.
More important is the discipline
of the days of sorrow. For what
were the customs of sorrow if not
discomfort with the Go1us? The
Jew so chafed at the Exile, that
he was disconso1ate, never forget
ting to dream of restoration. In
other words, it was the regret for
the exiled glory of Israel that
kept alive the desire for resto-
ration.
Perhaps in o1den times the Jew
could do little more than hope and
long; now we have the blessed
privilege Of working for the resto-
ration. To 1ull ourselves into
false feeling of jubilation, now
when there is so much need Tor
work would be a grave b1under.
1t would be the part of wisdom
not to discard our feelings of re-
The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1920-07-02

We have as yet failed to find
an exception to the rule that the
Jew who turns his back upon his
own faith and his own people and
joins another cult, or remains un-
affiliated with any religious
body, does so from some selfish
motive. Of course, we take no
account of lunatics and idiots.

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

the occupation that gives the
older rabbi the utmost sat1sfac-
ton and pleasure, the opportunity
for reading and study. The small
salary that the small congregation
pays will be ample for the needs
of the older man who has no
family obligations any more, and
no dependents to support. The
Conference can thus render dis
tinct service to American Jewry
by bringing it's influence to bear
upon its older members and the
small congregations of the land
to see the mutual benefit of such
an arrangement.
Should this idea be found inn
practicable, the Conference must
work out a system Of circuit
preaching and circuit ministra-
ton for the small communities.
For younger rabbis, for the re-
cent graduates of our theological
schools, this would be an excel
lent opportunity of training and
practice. At any rate, the small
congregations must no longer be
neglected.
Then there is the question OF
the restoration of Palestine as the
Jewish homeland. The latest de-
velopments in regard to it are
such that no Jewish body, and
least of all Rabbinical Confer
-ence, can afford to remain indif-.
ferent to this matter. The recog-
milton of Palestine as the home
land of the Jews by England and
the other powers is an accom-
plished fact. How far England
will go to translate theory into
practice, or, in other words, to
what extent England will find her
imperialistic plans and purposes
compatible with the full applica-
ton of the Jewish homeland idea,
is another matter. But the gaze
of all loyal Jews will henceforth
be fixed on Palestine and its pos
sibi1ities for the Jewish people.
The rabbis, therefore, must
henceforth take their true posi-
ton of intellectual and moral
leadership in the matter.
