JEWISH DEPUTIES SWING SEM
VOTE ON WILMA

Warsaw q. T. A.)-The 9 Jewish
deputies in the Polish Seim were the
decidine factor in the very important
issue of Wilma which has been debated
pro and con for two stormy days in
the Polish parliament. The business
before the Sejm was the proposal of
President Pilsudski to constitute the
citv of Wilma an INDEPENDENT Central
Lithuanian State. This was counter
ed by the suggestion that Wilma be
incorporated in Poland. President
Pilsudski threatened to resign I'M
less the Seim approved his sugges-
ton. but the deputies were almost
evenly divided and the decision rest
ed with the Jewish group of 9. At
first. these decided to abstain from
participation in the vote. but after
several conferences with Premier
Ponikowski and DR.. Ashkenazi, they
decided to support the government.
The resulting vote was III for Pill
sudski's proposal. and 1913 AGAINST. It
was stated that the Jewish bloc sup
rorted the government. not because
they were satisfied with it's attitude
toward the Jews. but because they did
not wish Pilsudski to resign.

200 CHALUZIM BARRED FROM
PALESTINE BECAUSE OF
$4,000

Bucharest q. T. A.)-2OO chaluzim
from Ukraine, prepared and ready to
enter Palestine, are held up at Galatz,
in Roumania. on account of the small
sum of $4,000 which must be paid
to the Roumanian government for the
200 visas. Neither the chaluzim nor
the Roumanian Zionist organization
has the necessary funds at it's dispo-
sal. The London Zionist Executive
was appealed to. but replied that it's
present financial condition does not
permit it to satisfy the request. The
Roumanian Organization has there
fore initiated a CAMPAIGN to raise a
half million lei (which is $4,000,
so that the chaluzim may proceed on
their journey.

CATHEDRAL EXPELS JEWISH
MERCHANTS NEARBY

Warsaw q. T. A.)-The Wilma Ca

to remove 26 Jewish merchants from
their stores situated near the Ca
thedral building, on the ground that
the presence of Jews defiles the Ca
thedral.
Rabbi Rubenstein has approached
General Zeligowsky with a plea to
postpone the expulsion, and he has
promised to refer the matter to the
regular court The Jewish merchants
have been in occupancy of their
stores for several years past, and the
sudden move of the Cathedral au-
thorities is interpreted as simply an
other step in the campaign to I'M
dermine the economic condition of the
Jews in the city.

NINE MILLION DOLLARS FOR
PALESTINE.

New York q. G. B. The first ma
tional conference of representatives
of Keren Hayesod committees
throughout the country, which was
held in New York on November 10th
and Goth, has decided to endeavor to
raise $9,OO0,0O0 by January /, 1928,
towards the minimum budget Of $12,-
100000 required by the Zionist Or
ganization for it's activities in Pales-
tine. There were 453 delegates from
81 states and 140 cities, representing
the most active workers for the Pal
estine Foundation Fund.
A series of resolutions were
adopted, the most important Of which
were those making the payment Of
"Maaser" obligatory upon all who
would support the Zionist program in
Palestine. A graded scheme of pay
ment of the 1.-THE was adopted, pro-
viding for the annual payment Of p
minimum of $25 for those with an in
come Of $4,000 or less, and $3.50 mini
mum for incomes up to $4,000; Jews
with incomes in excess of $4,000 are,
by these resolutions, required to pay
regular "Maaser," subject to the gov
eminent income tax.
It was also decided to divide the
country into 16 regions with Keren
Hayesod Bureaus in each in charge of
directors responsible to the head office
in New York. A resolution which
provoked considerable discussion, and
some excitement, was the one limit
ing the expense Of maintaining the
bureau and the subsidiary branches to
10 per cent. This was finally carried
with the proviso, "as close as posi-
BILE" to 10 per cent.
Reports were presented by Eman-
ual Neuman, temporary secretary of
the Fund, and Hermann Conheim,
Treasurer, showing net cash receipts
Of $682,000, exclusive of over three
million in uncollected pledges in var
ious parts of the country.

It is perhaps pertinent to yemark
in this connection that the United

and that the Government can pur-
chase the same at relatively low
price. We have idle ships which car
