JEWISH HOME FOR AGED B,

One Of the most attractive social
affairs ever held in the history Of St.
Paul Minneapolis Jewry, took place
last Wednesday evening at the large
Armory Drill Hall in St. Paul. The
occasion was the Annual Purim Ball
of the Jewish Home for the Aged.
The plan of the Committee in charge
to make this the annual social affair
of the Jews of the Northwest was
realized, as many of the communities
from the Northwest were represented
among the guests at the Ball. There
were about thousand couples pres
ent. The hall was fittingly decorated
for the occasion, while the dancers
tripped the Light Fantastic" to the
strains of most enhancing music. The
affair was a genuine social and fnan-
cial success and much credit is due

B Y STARVATION
RESOLUTION FAVORING NATION.
AL PACKERS CONTROL LAW
ADOPTED AT HURON con-
F'RENCE.

Huron, May 27-A resolution fav-
oring a national packers control
law that would provide for proper

publicity, equitable and rightful pro-
lection to cooperative livestock COM
mission companies was adopted OF
the second days session of the con-
ference of presidents and secretaries

a member of the beard of directors
of the U. S. Grain Growers, Inc, eX-
planned the new grain marketing
plan and method being employed to
finance the organization work. The
vast amount of work to be done in
preliminaries and in membership
campaigns, he said, justified unani-
nous vote of the board of directors
in authorizing the negotiation of a
loan not to exceed $1,000,000. The
speaker added that it was doubtful
if it will be necessary to borrow the
full amount.
Farmers organizations and far

FIGHT WAR, SAYS
BRITISH ENVOY
AMBASSADOR GEDDES ENDORSES
THE UTTERANCES OF PRESI-
DENT HARDING IN NEW
YORK.

New York, May 27-President
Harding's utterances against war
were echoed by Sir Auckland Ged-
des, British ambassador, at the an
nual Empire day dinner of the Brit
ish Schools and Universities club of
New York.
1--WE must not forget the evil of
war;" he said, Let us resolve, as the
president said, that it must not be
again" Another war cannot be wag-
ed without horrors indescribable.
New weapons have been devised,
among them bacteria to spread di-
sease. 1t must not be.
do not let us forget the awful
cost of war, or its horrors" he con
tinued, but let us also not forget
that the price of eternal freedom Is
eternal watchfulness, and let us not
browse in the watch tower.
I'VE must apply to international
relations the spirit of the game. We
must be willing to give and take,
knowing everything cannot come our
way, that the other fellow has his
rights not forgetting the need to
maintain watchfulness.
Between our two nations there is
the best chance in the world to bring
about complete sympathy, complete
understanding and complete friend
ship.
And | will ask you all to remem-
ber that understanding, that friend
ship is not the business of any one
individual. but it is the business OF
everyone who is resolved that war
shall not occur again; that there
will be no war if human ingenuity
and good feeling can prevent it. And
they can prevent it, and they must. "
Sir Auckland referred to the part
the American soldiers took in the
war, asserting they swarmed into
the ranks of the British armies be-
fore America declared war and
fought as Britons.

BOOST IN THE
NAVY PERSONNEL
SENATE FIXES NUMBER OF MEN
AT 100000.

Washington, ID. c., May 27.-The
600 naval appropriation bill was
shattered in the senate today when
many increases recommended by the
naval committee were adopted. By
a vote of 5 to % the senate adopted
a committee amendment opposed by
the economy forces providing for a
personnel of 10000 men as against
100000 authorized by the house.
Afterward committee amendments
calling for increases aggregating
about 100000 were quickly APP
proved.
The roll call on the navy person
mel apparently broke the attack
against increases recommended by
the naval committee. The way also
was paved for passage of the bill to-
morrow or Thursday after prospec-
tive adoption of the Borah amend
ment for a disarmament conference.
There were reports today of negotia-
tions looking to restoration of ap-
preparations for a new Pacific coast
base at Alameda, Cal, and for con-
tinuing drydocks and dredging pro-
iects at Charleston, S. c..
Party lines were broken in the
vote on fixing the navy personnel at
10000. Thirteen republicans vot-
ed to hold the personnel to 100000
but the loss Of these republicans to
the committee provisions was offset
by fourteen democrats who voted to
keep 10000 men in the navy.
Among committee increases adopt
ed were $15,377,000 for pay OF per
sonnen, $5,800,000 for reserve for
ces, $8,783,000 for provisioning,
$1,000, 900 for fuel and its transpor-
tation, and $5,OOO,00O for the ma
rine corps quartermaster corps.
Senator Lenroot, republican, OF
Wisconsin, led the battle today
against the increases and again
warned the republicans that the
country would not stand for them.
He was joined by Senator Hitchcock,
democrat, of Nebraska, who an
nounced he would vote against the
bill of the committee increases
should be substantially sustained.

MADISON To OBSERVE
DECORATION DAY
INTERESTING PROGRAM IN HON.
OR OF VETERANS OF SEW
ERAL WARS.

American history points with
pride to her war record-war that
was justifiable in defense of the
fundamentals of liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness. The call, to arms
over great principles was sounded
several times and there marched
forth in late war hundreds of thou
sands of valiant men willing to un-
selfishly serve their country.
Of the civil war veterans few re-
main alive today. The ranks of the
G. A. r. are alarmingly thinned. Few
of Mead's, Sherman's or Grants
men remain to relate the stirring
scenes of the great civil war peroid.
Not only have we the dead at
Arlington National cemetery, the old
Gettysburg battlefield and other
burying grounds to honor for their
bravery, but we also have those
who volunteered for service after
the Maine was sunk in Spanish wa
ters, and still others who made the
supreme sacrifice on many a bloody
field in Europe.
1t is fitting that the people of the
United States, on May 30, lay aside
all business to commemorate the
deeds and valor of all our heroes,
both living and dead and to this end
the people Madison will have an op-
portunity to once more scover them
