Music Mile Away Gives
Inspiration to Dance
OF Club In Atlanta

ATLANTA, Ga, June 12.-Ex-
ploits Of the Maftian heroes of II.
G. Wells and the most extrava-
CANT romances OF Jules Verne
were eclipsed on the roof of the
Capital City Club here recently
when for the first time dancing
to music conveyed by wireless
telephone was accomplished.
Approximately 1000 persons
gathered for the dance OF the
Club de Vingt. The music was by
the Georgia Tech r. o. T. c.
Band in it's own concert hall more
than a mile from the Capital City
Club. BY playing into a wireless
transmitter, the band flashed the
musical - sound waves to the
dancers, and who, by straining
their ears and a little of their i'm
agination, managed to follow the
music very well.
Through a miscarriage in the
plans OF obtaining material for
receiving the music the wireless
did not carry the sound in suffi-
cient volume to be heard plainly.
But II was amply demonstrated
that 1t could be done, which was
all that the experiment was for.
Practically every amateur wire
less operator in Atlanta and near
by towns had radio apparatus
tuned up" to catch the dance mu-
sic, and It was stated they not

out our plans from those who are
opposed to us by creed or dogma.
I'VE are now arranging for the es-
tablishment OF schools in Palestine.
We will try and secure some of oui
teachers from the United States. be-
cause we recognize that the American
school system is one of the best in
the world: also we will have the addi-
tional advantage of obtaining the
services of many teachers who have
taught children OF our race. particu-
larly in Chicago and New York.
Hebrew, will. of course, be the
language of our new country. 1t will
mean the reintroduction OF Hebrew
as a living language after thousands
of years of silence.
Must Coin New Words.
Much work will have to be done in
the coming of words to TT modern
conditions. There are no words in
Hebrew, for example. to indicate
motor cars and aeroplanes, and these
will have to be constructed. Our pro-
fessors are at work on a dictionary
of modern terms. and this Will be
ready by the time we are prepared to
operate our general schools. At the
present time we have, of course, He
brew schools in Palestine. but not to
the great extent we intend to operate
them as soon as we take actual pos
session as owners OF the country.
Music and art will be developed
and will be a big factor in the future
OF our race. We have much genius
in our race and this will be encour-
aged. BY this means the spiritual
side of our people will have a vent
will ha n hrtr o.
out the artistic element which is so
great a part of our being.
at must not be forgotten that the
Moses-were the me-
dunn of giving the Ten Command
ments to the world and that these
Commandments are today the basis OF
the whole social code. I firmly be-
lieve that the day will co[ne when
the Jews in Palestine will give to the
entire world a new and more perfect
code of morals-a basis on which the
world can attain the perfection
regeneration, which we all
seek.
I'VE will have a better chance to
establish a new system of morality
than have the old nations today. We
will start anew-with all the knowl-
edge and examples of the other na-
tions to aid us. We will learn by
their mistakes what to avoid and
what to accept. We will be without
kings. without priests and bishops
and without an aristocracy. We are
the same all over the world and our
real respect is for learning and
for temporal power or
place.
IF I did not think that Zionism
meant something for the world as a
whole as well as for the Individual
Jew I would not be a supporter OF
the movement. only ask that the
of the world will look
with sympathy and love upon the
task that is ahead of us
and believe that we are doing our
best. not only for Jewry. but for the
whole universe

Joseph Cowen Speaks With En-

This was a statement made by
Joseph Cowen, one of the leaders OF
the English Zionist Federation, when
he heard that Palestine was to be
turned over to the Jews, under Brit
ish mandate. The news OF the man
date created a great impression in
Zionist and Jewish circles here, and
has been seriously suggested and con-
sidered that the date of the anounce-

the mere changing of the ownership

to enter into our kingdom. and after
the lapse OF more than twenty CEN

of re-establishing their ancient home
