GEORGE ELIors ANSWER.

Here Is n charming story about
George Eliot, the famous writer and
friend of the Jews. C'George Eliot
was her pcn-naIne. She was really Il
woman but she chose n mans name
because she didn't want people to
misjudge her books. And she admired
the Jews so much that she, married
II Jew. If you haven't read her
Daniel DerOnda", there is treat
in store for you when you are ready
for it,
George Eliot was once at a great
concert given by the Philharmonic So
ciety of London, and there she met
the great composer, Richard Wagner,
who was known to dislike the Jews.
His wife Madame Wagner was charm
ell with George Eliot, and begged her
to come with her husband, George
I4cwes. TO visit them for month ut
Frankfort. S,oA most people in Eng
land would have given II great deal
to be invited 10 visit the Wagners.
But George Eliot said:
Madam Wagner, j beg to be eX-
cused. Your husband does not like
Jews, and my husband is a jew y

THE Arthur DAVIS MEMORIAL

There should he created in this
community New York; fund like
the Arthur Davis Memorial, a notable
institution of AnglO-Jewry, for the
development of Jewish literature. For
one thing, the Arthur Davis Memorial
provides once a year lecture by n
prominent man of letters, not neces-
sarily Jew, on some literary topic
of Jewish interest. This lecture is
invariably published within reason
ably short time after its delivery, and
we now possess in book form the
Davis lectures of Israel Zangwill, the
Rev. DIR. Travers HEREFORD and DIR.
Israel Abrahams. Aside from such
positive contributions to Jewish litera-
ture, however, the Arthur Davis Me-
mortal assists in its chosen field by
different means. 1t grants subven-
tons to struggling and necessitous
authors to enable them to prosecute
their researches, or, If these be com
pletcd, to publish the results of their
labors. In che East of Europe, since
the close of the war, many authors
have fallen on trobleOus times. We
noticed only recently that the Arthur
Davis Memorial had come to the as
sistancc of one of these deserving
which has fallen under our eye. As
the Jewish Publication Society, we
think. has not the power to function
in the manner of the Arthur Davis
Memorial, We bespeak the considera-
ton of this community for the estab-
lishmcnt of a new organization pat
termed upon il.-Hebrew Standard.

DIR. MOSES AGAIN.

Here is yet another testimony to
the health value of the Mos,iic Law.
This time it is ut the hands of DIR.
Howard Jones. who spoke Mt the New
port Rotary Club on Public Health
in the Time of Moses" In the course
of his address he said:
The laws of health as pronounced
by Moses and in the Pentateuch were
the basis of all modern sanitation, for
the IsTaelites' conception of disease
was a sound one. They did not at
tribute disease to demoniacal origin,
but to breach of the laws of health,
and they placed great stress on pre-
vention.
The medical officers in those days
We're the priests, and they practised
preventive medicine as an exact
science 5000 years ago. The Pen
tateuch contained prohibition against
impurity, improper food, improper in
dustrial methods, and against contact
with unclean persons. They provided
for isolation of infectious disease, for
spetlul lisltctlOu VI iiitGtcu housoS'
persons. and animals. The Jewish
health laws showed foresight which
was remarkable considering the con-
ditions i'm chose days. The result was
that Jews of the present day had
handed down to them u constitution
which, considering their prosecutions
and the conditions under which they
had lived for hundreds of years, was
truly marvellous. Their methods OF
slaughter resulted In an almost blood
less carcass, and the elimination of Il
great source, of possible disease. They
had regulations for covering milk Jars
! to prevent two persons drinking from
tic same cup, to prevent splitting. plac-
ing money IN the mouth. etc. Tuber-
culosis was very rare among the Jews.
If Jews would only follow the pre-
scription of DIR. Moses given to them
as their right and heritage, it occurs
to us that they would save great
deal of money they rev spend OH 9TH
er medical men"-and spare them
selves n deal Of ill-health.-London

HIGHWAY
FUNDS AT
Low EBB
Commission to Reach
Bottom of Sack Next
Year; Increased Debt
Limit Asked

Portland, Or, Dec. 16.--Uniess
provision is made for further
funds, the state highway commits
sion will reach the bottom OF the
sack in the ensuing year. Only
few million dollars more are re-
quired to finish all the roads the
commission is now working on.
The only way that additional
funds can be obtained, however, is
for the constitutional limitation to
be tilted 1 per cent by the cleo
torate of Oregon.
without such revision of the
limitation the road program will
have to mark time and attention
be confined chiefly to mainten-
ance.
Such was the statement reiter-
ated to various county courts at
the hearing of the highway com
mission yesterday by r. A. Booth
chairman. 1t gave the county
delegations something to think
about, especially when the COM
mission had to decline committing
itself to divers and sundry re-
quests for more road work.
Providing the commission car
ries out the schedule which 1t has
agreed on for the coming year, al
funds at its disposal will be con-
sumed. This includes about ST.,
100000 of county money, about
$2,O00,000 of federal money ant
all the state money that is still
available out of authorized bone
issues

sumed most of yesterdays session

ably take up all Of todays time
The commission disposed, to ad
vantage, of the last block OF th'
original road bond issue, the So,

consisting of $560,000, command
ed a premium of $55, ,496, the pric
per 500 being $109.91. Will

Salem Best Site
For World Fair
Man Points Out

If Oregon must stage a WORLDS
fair in 1925-if that fair is to be
financed by the taxpayers OF the
state-then it should be held in
salem, according to ]. s. McMur-
try, a prominent Philomath busi-
ness. man. Mr.. McMurtry has pre-
sented his views relative to the
exposition in a letter received this
morning by It. E. McCroskey. man
ager of the Salem Commercial
club.
"Portlanders appear very en-
thnsiastic over the proposed fair
which, they say, will benefit the
entire state" Mr.. McMurtry point
ed out Would they be as en-
thusiastic if it were TO be held in
Salem?"
Concerning Salem as potential
worlds fair site, Mr.. McMurtry
says:
mo more beautiful location
could be found in the state.
"It is more centrally located
than Portland.
"If the people are to stand the
expense of the exposition, then the
capital city of Oregon is the logical
location for the fair"
Strong opposition from residents
of his community will be forth
coming if Portland insists that the
taxpayers should finance Port
land fair, Mr.. McMurtry stated.
He concludes:
81 favor an exposition at Salem
if the state votes to finance 1t, OF
they may have it in Portland Il
