PIPP'S WEEKLY.

A weekly, published by E. G.
Pipp, of Detroit, is furnishing a
lot of interesting information
about Ford. Mr.. Pipp was con-
nected with Ford's paper until it
was transformed into an anti
Semitic sheet, whereupon he
promptly resigned. He refused
to be connected with imported
propaganda of so villanous a
character.
Mr.. Pipp knows much about
Ford-and knows much that it
seems Mr.. Ford wished he did
not know. But if it is permitted
to publish the stuff that Ford's
minions print-Mr. Pipp feels
that he has a duty to print what
he knows.
Mr.. Pipp is not Jew-but he
grasps the depravity of Ford's
attacks on the Jews; he is not a
Jew-but he is intensely Ameri-
can, and feels as do thousands of

The opposition to summer SER
vices seems to be dying out. We
ourselves in former times
thought them superfluous-in
fact, we felt that they were in
trusive. And our early judgment
was confirmed by the fact that
at the summer resorts in earlier
days, the guests, to a large ex-
tent, felt as we did. But recently
we have been forced to change
our mind, and after seeing the
attendance at this years servi-
ces, with the larger number of
people present and the interest
manifested, it proves beyond any
shadow of a doubt that our ear
lier ideas were wrong.
1t may be that the summer
visitors have been educated to
attend the services. But whether
it is this, or whether it is that
people feel that religion is not a
matter of time or place-and
feel it more than formerly, we
do not know. Suffice it to say

PUTNAMS MORE REASON.
ABLE.

The Putnam Publishing house
has acceeded to the request of
the Anti-Defamation League
that it desist from publishing
the Infamous Causes of the
Worlds Unrest" The League
had asked the publishers to with
draw the issue just as it had
withdrawn it's History of Chris
tian Science, because of an undue
reflection upon Mrs. Eddy. After
some correspondence, the League
won a partial victory. The Put
mans have promised not to re-
publish the work, though they
refused to withdraw from the
market, the edition already pub
lished.
1t is thus much gained. Of
course the Putnams could have
been stubborn-but they were
not, and to that extent their de-
cision ought to be appreciated.
The Anti-Defamation League
deserves the thanks of all men
who feel that the publication of
lying Literature ought to be dis
continued. At the same time the
Putnams have displayed spirit
worthy of praise.

that in practically all the North
Central resorts, summer services
are being held, and are being
well attended. And to add to all
of this, they are being very earn
estly discussed. The interest we
have seen was a pleasant Incl
dent to a pleasant outing.
The Bureau of Summer Ser
vices is at least beginning to see
that its early vision was possible

those who opposed the innova-
ton are changing their minds.

THE PUEBLO SUFFERERS.

Advices from Pueblo state
that contributions to the con-
struction fund for the flood suf-
ferers are not coming in as they
should. 1t was hoped that a
heavy response would be the
answer to the appeal not only by
the city officials of Pueblo, but
also to that of the leaders of the
Jewish Community of Denver.
1t is regrettable tina the hearts of
our co-religionists have not been
touched by the misery and the
loss occasioned by the flood, and
the people of Pueblo still look
forward to a response that will
do the Jews of the United States
credit. Funds can be sent to Mil
ton l.. Anfenger, Denver, Colo.

The question of what the repre-

COOPERATION OF NATION
AL AGENCIES-AND
WASTE OF FUNDS.

Sometime ago, we mad occaS-
sion to write an editorial on the
good work that was being done
by the l. O. B. B. in sending to
Mexico, Vice President Archi-
bald Marx and Rabbi Martin lie
lonka, for the purpose of survey
ing the situation there, and es-
tablishing agencies for the care
and welfare of the immigrants,
who were drifting into Mexico.
We at that time stated what had
been done, and commented fav-
orally on the results of the work
of these gentlemen.
Now we are informed that the
Hebrew Sheltering and Immi-
grant Aid Society has also sent
out a deputation to survey the
ground. The task of these gentle
men will no doubt be just what
the task of the B'nai Birth rep
resentatives was. They Will find
conditions changed but little
and will no doubt recommend
about the same measures that
the other gentlemen recommend
ed. What we can't quite under
stand is, why were these gentle
men sent out, without some kind
of an understanding with the
B'nai Birth? Surely the Hebrew
Immigrant Aid knew that the /.
o. B. B. representatives were in
Mexico-if they did not know it,
the B'nai Birth should have in,
formed them-and if it did,
some one, it seems to us, is vast
ing money.
We do not know whether ma
tional organizations notify each
other Of what they are going to
do, or not. We rather fancy that
there is too much jealousy
among our organizations to dc
everything that they could do
jointly; but in matter of this
sort, some sort of an understand.

the Hebrew Sheltering and I'M
