ZIONISM AND THE CATHO-
Lie CHURCH.

We have ere this called atten-
ton to the fact that the most
sinister opposition to the realiza-
ton of the Zionist hope is now
coming and will later on come
still more persistently from the
Catholic Church. We have new
evidence of it in an article in the
Catholic Bulletin of Jan. 8, en-
titled "The Zionist Movement"
The sub-headlines consist of such
sentences as: "Check on Zionist
Ambition to Rule Over Holy
Land-Reports of Three Cardi-
mails Aroused Catholic World to
Menace-P1an Called Dangerous
Politically" In the body of the
article we are told of the Zionists'
keen disappointment at Eng1and's
failure to live up to the Balfour
Declaration as originally under
stood and interpreted, and it is
intimated that the circumstances
of the Catholic Church thru three
of its Cardinals, an Englishman,
a Frenchman, and an Italian, had
something to do with it. The Car
dina1s have shown the menace
of Zionism to Catholic interests
in the Holy Land.

IMAGINARY TEARS AND
IMAGINARY ILLUSTRA-
TIONS.

We have known of preachers
and other public speakers, ortho-
dox, liberal, and others, who
when in need of quotation from
some wel1-known authority, and
not finding any, or not having
any ready at hand, manufactured
it, and made it serve the purpose.
Rabbinic literature has been
made to furnish many such i'm
aginary quotations. But it is sell
dom that one is compelled or
tempted to draw upon imaginary
historical illustrations to lend
reality to an imaginary fear. 1t
is regretable that our worthy as
sociate C. D. M. should have sue
cumbed to such temptation in his
editorial on fCenters of Inhu-
ence" in Our last issue. We are
not certain yet whether his main
thesis was elaborated for the sake
of the illustration, or the illustra-
ton was invented for the sake
of the main thesis. At any rate
we shall discuss his illustration
first, for it evidently was first in
his mind, or as the medieval litur-
gical poet has it, "the end of the
work was first in thought"

of the Zionist Organization of
this country will weaken the

and the others who have taken
issue with us, that there are two
kinds of Jews: one that naturally
leans toward Zionism, and one
that naturally leans away from it.
Our criticism of the organizations
will not influence either the one
or the other.
In this connection we may say
a word in reply to those of Our
friends who insist that we should
refrain from criticism and engage
in "constructive" work. We
wonder what constructive work
they have in mind. Joining the
organization as at present consti-
tuted? What is there construc-
tive about it? Furthermore, we
have shown them that that
means wasting money needlessly.
The truth of the matter is, that
right now Zionists, for the first
time in about twenty-five years,
find themselves in the peculiar
position of having nothing to do
but wait wait for the more spe-
cifc terms of England's mandate;
wait for the organization of
stock companies to develop Pal
estine's resources, industry, and
commerce; wait for the actual
call from Palestine for help and
work. Has such a call reached
us? When it does reach us, we
and all other Zionists will be
found doing constructive" work.

of course, is pure fiction, with

very opposite is true. Reform
has stemmed apostasy; and Re-

Wholesale apostasy or indiffer-

of enlightenment, preceding, in
Germany, the period of Reform.

figure Of 5000 per 100 pounds was
said to be below the cost OF production

Pnttinr on the Screws

According to reliable reports heard on
the street yesterday, preliminary steps
have already been taken by the loan :
ing institutions to force n reduction OF
retail prices.
1t was stated that the discovery had
been made that number of dealers.
after obtaining their line of credit at
the regular banks and other loaning
institutions. had placed additional paper
elsewhere by opening small new nc
counts. There has been considerable

lines Of the trade.
In addition to these drastic meas

gently but firmly turned down. with
til" advice they can have further credit
provided they dispose of part of their
wares.
1t is an open secret that practically
none of the banks and trust companies
are disposed to finance the varying of
goods where attempts are not made to
reduce prices and induce public buying.
In other words. everybody. for the time
being at least, must forego anticipated
profits. and get down to level whereby
the wheels Of trade and commerce can
resume Without interruption.

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

Bond men are looking for big things
in the next sixty days and assert. with
striking confidence. that one of the
broadcst and strongest bond markets
witnessed in many years will develop
within that period As matter of
fact. all the leading houses have com
plctcd arrangements for very active
campaign, which they claim cannot be
anything but successful because of the
attractive basis at which all the lead
ing high grade issues are being offered,
or at least selling at in the current
market.
1t was pointed out by the manager
of one of the largest houses that never
before in the history of the street has
the bargain counter been so full OF
choice pickings. with most of the new
financing out of the way, the tracks, II
was said. will be cleared for some OF
the old seasoned gilt edge securities.
There Is said to bc considerable
amount Of money awaiting investment.
despite the continued tight conditions OF
the money market.
1t is felt that before tho first month
of the new year has passed sufficient
progress will have been made toward
thawing out the existing large amount
of frozen credit, as to nut an entirely
different aspect to the bond situation,
which will become more pronounced
as the new year progresses.
