WHAT IS A CHRISTIAN.

Christianity is more than creed it is life, fellowship with Christ. Chris tianity is more than a creed it is a life, it is more than initiating the ex- ample of perfect man. It is Christ Jesus: the God man living in us and expressing his love- his thoughts, his words and deeds. In faith a believer in Christ, Mark 16 :16; in knowledge a disciple, John S:31; in character a saint. Rom. :7; in influence light Matt 5 IA; in conflict a soldier, 2 Tim 2:3; in communion a friend John 15 :15; in progress, pilgrim, Heb II :13 in relationship, child, Rom s :16: in expectation, an heir, Rom s 1T: a workman. ? Tim. ? :15 yes. sel, Tim ? :21 laborer, Cor. 80 witness. Acts 1 :S; fisherman Matt. :19; Luke 10.
 Christianity is just what the Bible says it is and what the sermon on the mount indicates While it excludes drunkenness and all crimes mentioned in the commandments, it also eradi' cates grouchiness, selfishness. brutal ity. coarseness and similar faults. Christianity is a grace that cannot be beaten into a child with club, inject ed into younth with a hypodermic needle or legislated in grown-up by law. It's grace that must come from God himself and no human is great enough to generate it for himself. The best way to inculcate it in others is to set shining examples. rather than try ing to force it down their throats.
 We know that sinner is deformed, the moralist is reformed, the ritualist is conformed, but the Christian is transformed The Christian will cheer fully be governed by such messages as l Cor 10 :31; Col 3 :16.17; Eph. IT,

AN UNFINISHED TASK

A few years ago the Jewish

newed endeavors on the part of
the officers and those vitality in
terested in the institution. The
organization was enlarged and
improved, a choice location for
the new Home to be erected was
acquired, a good start in getting
contributions and pledges to the
100000 Building Fund was
made, contracts were let and the
basement of the new structure
was actually constructed. Nor

Attitude to Herbert Samuel
The Political Commission has heard
many stormy debates on the attitude
the Congress is to express towards
High Commissioner Sir Herbert Sam
uel The majority of the members of
the Commission are opposed to the
issuance of any statement Of con-
fidence. The American delegation, on
the other hand, urges that Samuel be
supported by energetic and efficient
political administration in Palestine.
DR.. Weizmann holds the same view.
Referring to Sir Herbert Samuel,
Weizmann declared him the greatest
friend the Zionist movement has. sIt
is true," he said, "that he has made
mistakes. But Samuel is one of us
and his mistakes are ours. We dare
not raise hand against him as long
as we, the Jewish people, have not
fulfilled our duty"
Nominations For Executive
The Nominations C o m m t tee
brought in it's slate for the members
of the Executive Committee. Of
these, Weizmann and Sokolow were
C1cCCcu ny oil OVERWHELMING majority,
Weizmann as president Of the Zion
list Organization, and Sokolow as
chairman of the Executive Commit
tee. Soloweitchik, Minister of Jew
ish Affairs in Latvia, was also elect
ed by very large vote, but he an
nounced that he would not accept
membership in the Executive, and the
vacancy thus caused will have to be
filled. Simon received the next high
est number of votes, and Zabotinsky
received a bare majority. Motzkin,
Shmaryah Levin and Rabbi Meyer
Berlin received the smallest vote.
Simon announced his intention of go
ing to America and in his individual
capacity confer with the Brandeis
group. 1t was reported that the
president of the congress had re-
ceived word from Sir Herbert Samuel
and Samuel Untermeyer urging re-
Cancellation with Brandeis.
In an early number of the Amer
lean Jewish World it is hoped to give
comprehensive survey of the ac-
complishments Of the Carlsbad Con-
gress.

A man akin in mind to him, but more
of an academic disposition, is Pro-
fessor Otto Warburg, and among the
classical orators of the movement is
DR.. Shmaryah Levin, both of whom
are not at present members of the
executive. The list of men of light
and learning who will dominate the
Congress can be extended for the
movement possesses an abundance Of
talent, but we can already see in our
minds eye some of the men who will
fill the stage of the Congress and give
it substance and form.

Palestine and elsewhere have been Of
a most solid kind. If only they had
half dozen men of DR.. Elders stamp
in Palestine, the Zionist position Wis
avis the British administration would
be well assured. A Zionist represen-
tative occupying in Palestine a posi-
ton of undisputed authority is DR..
Arthur Ruppin, who is not concerned
with politics but with political econ
omy. He stands at the head of the
endeavor to give Jewish aspirations
in Palestine the economic basis which
can alone assure them permanence.

we pray Cast us not aside in Our
old age" In what way will we
atone for the wrong committed
against those declining in years
and waning in strength? How
can we deserve we'll at the hands
of God when we have failed to do
our duty by our unfortunate ones
who dwell in our midst?
No one can throw the blame of
Our neglect upon the general bus
mess 1u1l during the year gone
by. It is a fact that Jewish en-
deavor has nowhere taken a halt
because economic conditions were
unfavorable. We of the North
west have not ceased giving to all
worthy causes for which appeals
were made. This year, as we'll as
every year, we had more than our
share of national solicitors and
mshulochim. We gave to all
Jewish endeavors. None were
turned away empty-handed. But
our own institution we have for
saken. The cry of those nearest
and dearest to us we let go I'M
answered.
Some communal undertakings
may be deferred for better days.
But the suffering, the grief and
misery of those in need of a home
cannot and must not wait for a
more suspicious day. The task
SO we'll started by small number
of devoted men and women
must now be successfully COM
pleted. Every se1f<respecting
Jew living in the Northwest
must come to the assistance of
the Home for the Aged. A united
effort to finish this glorious un-
dertaking must be put forth by
every noble-hearted Jew and
Jewess. During t he coming
High Holidays there will be
many appeals made for Jewish
relief, local and national. Surely
the distress of the weak, aged and
decrepit is a cause no less de-
serving of our support.
How long more shall they wait?
Every day brings them nearer to
the grave. How long more shall
we be disgraced? We must act
at once. "For if not now when

iliary less productive. The results
of the Annual Ball, held the past
year and the year previous, testi-
fly to the keen interest, generous
support and whole-hearted devo-
ton of that organization to the
cause of the Aged. The enthu-
siasm of the northwestern Jewish
communities was aroused and
everyone hoped that the end of
the year would see the compile
ton of the Institution that was
to be lasting monument to the
Jewish philanthropic achievement
of the Northwest.
But to Our great disappoint-
ment beyond the setting up of the
basement last fall no further
Roadway was made. An investi-
CATION into the underlying causes
brings to the surface the sad
truth that the sacrifice, effort and
energy put forth by the officers
in their appeal for funds have not
been met with response that
was sufficiently generous and en-
thusiastic on the part of those
from whom more was hoped and
expected. AS result further
construction had to be delayed.
The question before the Jews
of the Northwest is very plain.
How long will we tolerate such
state of affairs? We often boast
of Our keen sense of pride and self
respect. We always claim to be
sensitive to the needs of our CO.
religionists. The cry of all who
suffer finds in us hasty re-
spouse. But what about the
plight of the aged and infrm in
our midst? What about the pain
and anguish we cause them be-
cause of our neglect? Think of
the plight of an aged and weak
person who has to be wandering
about for food and shelter. Think
of those who suffer an early
death because they are homeless,
of those who because of Our neg
lect to make adequate provision
for them are forced to seek ad-
mission into Christian institu-
tons, to the shame and disgrace
of the Jewish community and tO
the endless grief and misery of
the inmate and his relatives. Is
it not time that measures be taken
that will put an end to such I'm
Jewish practices?
The most solemn season of the
year is approaching. We will
soon begin to take account of our
sins of commission and omission.

Inc laSC session OIL IHe lWeuIn
Zionist Congress which has been meet
ing at Carlsbad since September 1
was held on Thursday, Sept. Is, just
one day after we went to press. AS
result we are not in position to re-
port finally on several of the most
interesting questions before the Con-
gress, the actual personnel of the
Executive; where it's seat and base of
operations is to be; the final form Of
the Keren Hayesod directorate; it's
relations to the Zionist Organization;
what action, if any, is to be taken with
regard to the minority Zionists of the
Brandeis group in America.
This much we can say, some of the
most constructive of the suggestions
before the Congress were included in
the recommendation made by the
American delegation. Even if they
are not adopted in their entirety,
enough will be accepted by the con-
gress to prove the value to the Zion
list movement of the suggestions
emanating from America. We give
below a detailed account of several
of the latest sessions of the Con-
gress. .--.
American Zionist Delegation Favors
Budgetary System for Palestine
, Carlsbad, Sept. IL q. T. A.)-The
American Zionist delegation attend
ing the World Zionist Congress issued
a statement in which it urges the
adoption of business methods, strict
economy and a budgetary system for
all Jewish activities for the recon-
struction of Palestine. The Ameri-
cans declared that "the controversy
between them and the Brandeis- Mack
group is not due to difference on
these points but to the separatist pur-
poses and policies of Mr.. Justice Bran
deis and his followers"
The statement is signed by Peter
j: Schweitzer, Herman Conheim,
Louis Robinson, A. B. Goldberg, Louis
Lipsky, Jacob Fishman, E. w. Levin
Epstein, Michael Salt, Rabbi Mas
liansky and others of the American
delegation.
In the statement the American
delegates demand simplifcation of
the international Zionist Organiza-
ton urging the creation of one con-
trolling supervisory agency between
the London Executive and the Con-
gross. They would make the Exc
cutive responsible to the Congress
and would have the size of all future
congresses limited to 300 delegates.
They advocate the concentration of all
financial activities of the Zionist Or
ganization under one financial minis
ter who is to head finance COM
mission. On the other hand, they
favor the abolition of the present
Zionist Commission in Jerusalem and
would have it's place taken by num-
Der of members of the international
Executive who would reside in Pales-
tine and assume complete charge of
Jewish affairs in the country. The
Americans have further proposed the
establishment of an Agricultural
Commission and of other expert COM
missions which are to operate in
Palestine and advise the executive
members on technical matters of COL
