it should be. Jewish life always en-
bodied the Hanukkah ideals. Fearless
ly facing great odds, cherishing their
religion, reliance on God, heroism,
these were not by any means restrict
ed to the days Of the Maccabees. What
was Jewish martyrdom if not an en-
bodiment of these very ideals? What
the Maccabees did was to substitute
aggressive self-defense for passive
martyrdom. And Of this trait of old
Mattathias and his hero sons the pres
ent generation of Jews have proved
themselves worthy heirs. ~
Some good people are still debating
the question whether the Maccabean
struggle was religious, or national
istic movement. Were Judah and his
brothers fighting to save their faith
or were they trying to defend their
fatherland? AS matter of fact, the
question never presented itself to the
Maccabees themselves. They were
leading a normal life. On their soil,
the question Of religion and national
ism had not presented itself. They
conceived of no conflict because there
was no conflict. It it only when Jew
ish life becomes unnatural that the
question is raised.
Fortunately, whatever our view as
to it's original nature Hanukkah can
easily satisfy every element. It's re-
ligious demands are so few that they
can easily be met by the nationalistic;
the poetry and glamor Of it's nation
'alism are so alluring that even the
exclusively religious non-nationa'istic
Jew can have no serious objections,
So here, at least, is one festival
that all Jews, whatever their can,
schauung," can unite in celebrating.

The poor anti-Semite is often beset
by the difficulty that not every one
who looks like Jew is a Jew. So
the anti-Semites of Poland recently
discovered at their meeting in the
town hall Of Warsaw, when, mistak-
ing Kopendorf, a member Of the Pol
ish Ministry, for Jew, they expelled
him from their meeting. And now
the Polish government which could
have forbidden to the anti-Semites
the use of the Town Hall for such a
meeting, is bringing suit against the
anti-Semites for having insulted the
ministry by expelling Kopendorf.
Moral: If you must ill-treat Jew,
first make sure he is Jew.
We had already figured out no less
than eighteen ways of spelling this
innocent festival when prudence babe
us desist. The trouble is that you
just cannot transliterate the Hebrew
"Ches" (no, it is not what Sammy
Rzchewski is famous for but the
eighth letter of the Hebrew alpha
bet) and the "Choff," the eleventh
letter. Both sound alike but are diff
ferent. And there are many ways of
writing the English equivalent. The
only thing to do is to follow the Jew
ish Encyclopedia which spells it
Hanukkah with a dot under the first
H). And if the Encyclopedia doesn't
know then it should!

DANCER SEEN As
SHIP IS AGROUND
As RESULTS FOGe
400 Passengers Imperied as Mar
muraec, Blown by Heavy Sea
Strikes Land on Island
Point

By United Press.
Boston, April 29.-Four hundred
passengers were imperled today
when the steamer Marmuraec
bound from the Azores to New Bed
ford, Mass, ran ashore on the south
western tip of Block Island, accord
ing to wireless message received
here.
The cause of the accident, the
message stated was the inability Of
the pilots to see the shoreline on
account of dense fog. There was
heavy sea running and because of
the fog, they were aground before
the ships officers could prevent the
catastrophe.
The wireless message stated that
the coast guard cutters were sent
at once to the rescue and that when
they arrived, the forward hold OF
the steamer was filled with water
from rent in the hull as the re-
suit Of the shock when the ship
grounded Indications were that the
passengers would be saved.

b0RAH PLANS To.
CONTINUE FIGHT
ON HIS PROGRAM
Disarmament Battle TO Continue De-
spite Passage Of Naval Bill
by House Yesterday,
Leader Declares

By United Press.
Washington, April 29.-The fight
for disarmament continued today in
congress despite the defeat OF the
program yesterday in the house of
representatives.
Senator Borah author of the reso-
luton proposing tripartite confer
ence for the purpose Of discussing
the reduction of naval armaments,
declared today that he will get a
record vote on his proposal when
the navy appropriation bill is
brought before the senate. This bill
passed the house yesterday.
Immediately after the measure
was made ready for the senate, the
army appropriation bill carrying
1891, 100000 passed last session., but
vetoed, was taken up. The navy bill
went through the house in the same
form as originally passed, but there
were indications of a fight on the
army budget because of an increase
in the enlisted force from $4,000 to
10000.
A parliamentary trick play, and a
quick move by Representative Walsh
republican, Massachusetts, in the
chair cut off two hours Of debate on
an amendment by Representative
Connolly, democrat, Texas, providing
that no part OF the appropriation fol
warship building should be expended
until the president had called an in
ternational disarmament conference
Seeing the tangle over time for de
bate, the amendment was put to {
vote and defeated in veritable
shout Of noes.
