SIN

A little word of only three let
tiers but how much sorrow, dis
tress, suffering and unhappiness it
has has caused in the world, not only
the party that commits the act, the
innocent must suffer. That is the
rouble with most every sin that we
commit in this world. 1t hurts 9TH
ers more than it hurts us. There
is hardly breach of the law that
committed that effects alone the
one guilty. There is always some
innocent one to suffer. We may feel
sure that when we are doing wrong
that it is going to strike someone
else ere we are through, even though
we feel that we alone will be the
one to suffer. How careful each and
every one should be or we will bring
suffering to our innocent loved ones
which most of us have done.

TIMBER WASTE
IN SUNDAY PAPER

Aeertain middle west newspaper
boasts that to produce the news
print consumed in its average Sunday
edition "a acres Of timber are cut
down. Multiply that by the hun
dreds Of Sunday newspapers of sim
liar bulk that are printed in this
country and you will have some con-
ception of the terrible waste OF
natural resources that is going on
all the time. 1t ought to be stopped.
The padded Sunday newspaper is a
nuisance. 1t is filed with stuff that
serves only as vehicle to carry adj
vertising, and that could we'll be
dispense with, with no loss to the
pnblic. We are not opposed to Sun
day newspapers, but we object TO
unrestricted slaughter of our fast
disappearing forests without any
compensating advantages II the
average Sunday newspaper We're
cut down to one-fourth its pres
ent size the timbersupply would be
conserved and the reading public
would not be deprived.

AMEN TO AMENDMENTS

China, Czechoslovakia, The Neither
lands, and France have each submit
ed proposed amendments to the
league of nations covenant. To be-
come effective each am nd ment
must receive the approval of the
league council and also a majority
vote in the assembly. The Difficult
ties in the way of actual amendment
are manifest, and it is quite possible
that each of those now proposed
will fail of adoption. which fact
would not increase the friendly feel

what happened at San Reno will hap
pen at Geneva. There is no going back
on the Balfour Declaration. Nothing
in the world will deter us from our
destiny. We are determined to get into
Palestine.
The second condition is that recon.
mended by the High Commissioner,
that is, Immediately to increase the
possibilities for immigration into Pal
estine so that the upbuilding of Jew.
ish Commonwealth shall become a re-
atty in the near future.
This is difficult, but it is possible. 1t
is possible according to the knowl-
edge we have Of Palestine. And thank
God, tbs difficult, because had it been
easy, this upbuilding would not have
been left to us.
This is the position, and this is the
only comment can make on tn.
events in Palestine. | know Jewry at
large has not been shaken in its con.
fidence by these events. The determin-
alton Of the Jews to go ahead with
their work has been strengthened.
We are facing great emergency,
and our friends in Palestine call to US.
Mr.. Sokolow, who, for the present,
holds the Eastern front, asks for sup
port. / would like to know this after,
noon, before ! leave this hall, what
reply / shall give NJ. Sokolow on be,
half of this assembly, representing
New York Jewry. know beforehand
what your reply will be. | can read it
in your faces.
But another reply comes from New
York which is published in the Jewish
press all over the country. This reply
is in the form of advertisements,
warning you against us, and telling
you that we are destroying the World
Zionist Organization. II it were not a
tragedy, would regard it as come
dy. If the times wee not so serious,
one could afford to laugh, but it is Sc
rious business. The gentlemen who
have signed their names to this warn
ing to you will be placed on the record
together with those who signed their
names twenty-five years ago against
the holding Of the first Zionist Con-
gress. They will be registered among
those who twenty years ago gave then
votes in favor of Uganda. They will
be registered among those who only
three years ago warned the British
Government and the Jewish people
that the Balfour Declaration is a dan
ger to Jewry.
For the last time, at this solmen
moment, | advise ths gentlemen who
have been Zionists, and who pretend
to be Zionists now, lay down their
arms! By the truth Of God, Palestine
demands it, and | warn them on yom
behalf that they stop this fight until
the next Congress.
A few days ago there took place in
Jaffa an assembly Of Jewish men.
These workmen adopted a resolution
which has been transmitted to us. 1t
reads; "Dr. Weizmann, what reply
are you going to give? Are you pre-
pared with the means to enable 10000
Jews to enter Palestine?' My reply
is: During seven long years | have
been going from community to COM

Jewish people, asking them with the
blood of my heart for means with

CHAIN Weizmann, president OF the

ed at the conference of representa-.
t-ves of Jewish Organizations of
Greater New York, on Sunday, May
15, at the Stuyvesant High School,
At no time were men responsible
for the destinies of the Zionist move
ment compelled to pass through such
serious hours as we have during these
days. We are engaged OH a war on
a front which stretches from Jeru-
salem to San Francisco. propose to
speak this afternoon about the east
ern front in Jerusalem, and about the
western front in America.
You know what has occurred in
Jaffa' 1t is not limited in Jaffa alone.
The attacks have been repeated in
other Jewish centers in Palestine. A
message reached US last night from
Jerusalem which | propose to read
to you:
Grateful for expressions of good
will in your telegram, entirely en-
dorse the view therein stated that
Jewish immigration into Palestine,
which is now momentarily suspended,
depends wholly for success on pro-
vision Of adequate resources for eco
nomic development of country. Sam
uel."
You have passed a resolution,
which l heartily endorse, that the
doors Of Palestine must not be closed
for one moment. Before this meet
ing we replied to Sir Herbert Sam
uels telegram. We respectfully sug-
gested that the doors of Palestine
be reoponed at once; that on no ac-
count should concession like thai
be made to the violence of few peo
pie. -
1t is time for every Jew, and not
only every zionist, to consider and
understand what happened at Jaffa.
It is no fright to call it a pogrom,
and 1t can no the compared with what
happened in Ukraine or in Poland. It
was the resistance on the part Of a
certain fraction Of the Arabs to the
immigration Of the Jews. 1t was or
ganized for a definite purpose. 1t
was organized to impress public opin-
ion in Great Britain and all over the
world. A similar effort was made
before the San Reno decision, and il
was repeated now before the next
meeting Of the League Of Nations,
which is to take place in Geneva with
in the next few weeks. The intention
is to impress public opinion with the
difficulty Of carrying out the Balfoun
Declaration. II was prepared and en-
gineered with the help OF dark forces
We consider It wrong policy to submit
to these forces. We 6emand-I think
am entitled to transmit to the gov
eminent in Palestine your demand for
the immediate reopening of the
gates Of Palestine to Jewish immigra-
tion. But these things may be repeat
ed. This is not the first nor the last
incident Of this kind. 1t is n necessary
stage in the development Of Palestine.
II can be avoided only by establishing
two conditions:
First, definite political status in
Palestine. The fact that the Mandate
is not yet issued nor signed nor en-
dorsed, the fact that the Treaty of
Sevres has not yet been ratified, gives

HOUSEWORK AND HANDS.

Yesterday said something
about the value of homework as a
beauty exercise. I know many OF
my readers are going to tell me
that, though it may be good Tor
the arms, it is exceedingly nara
on the hands.
All this is true enough. But
Their are any number of little ways
of protecting the hands while
working and of treating them as
soon as housework is finished.
First of all, never touch a stove
or furnace or ashes unless you
have gloves on. Cotton gloves
used to be ten cents pair, now
they are twice as much, at least.
They are cheap at any reasonable
price, however, since they do pro-
tect the hands when doing dirty
dusty work.
In fact most homework can be
done with gloves on. Cotton or
canvas gloves are for busting and
sweeping and for tending fires:
rubber gloves, which are little
more expensive, for scrubbing and
dishwashing. There are only two
household duties l know of that
can not be done with gloves on.
One Is making beds. which is not
hard on the hands, and the other
is laundry work. which is. But
even in laundry work the amount
of time the hands are immersed in
water Is reduced to a minimum by
the aid of washing machines,
wringers and other patent devices
to eliminate the Fashioned
scrubbing board.
The new soap flakes and pow
ders are so cleansing in their ac-
ton that practically no rubbing @

There are some narrow-mind ed
people who boast that they will
not do business with woman If
they can help it. In most cases this
is rank injustice, but even the
most ardent feminist cannot but
appreciate the reason most people
would not like to do business
with Mrs. Jessie M. Lightfoot of
King county, Washington,
Mrs. Lightfoot has the dlstinc-
ton of being not only a sheriff and
coroner, but she is intercSt ed in
two undertaking companies. It
certainly sounds as if "once she
gets you you are done for" as one
of her friends jovially remarked.
Mrs. Lightfoot is the fist and
only woman deputy sheriff in King
county with the full power OF
sheriff. She was the first deputy
coroner In the state of Washington.
In addition to her duty as sheriff
she Is secretary OF the Tome Tn
dertaking company and thc Free
mont Undertaking company. Mrs.
Lightfoot is also an active club
woman and is president of the
Women's Commercial club of
Seattle. She is life member OF
the state legislative council of
Washington and chairman OF the
finance committee OF the King
county legislative council.

JOAN TELLS OF A GHOST.

less than before.

to assert myself a little--as far rs
my age goes-or Joan will have me

Of my life"
Then Margaret considered.
Should she show Joan the rose ana
gray dress? What If she hung it
up in the closet with her other
clothes and let Joan find 1t? Craig
Forester had said it was so be
coming: he had admired her in Il
had declared she looked like
Joan's sister. Perhaps it was
wrong for her to think herself too
old to dress prettily and stylishly,
or for enjoyment. She had so en-
joyed Forrester's call. The tine
had passed so swiftly. And time
so often dragged with her. She
was alone so much. Joan was so
often with her schoolmates.
