NEW YORK JEWS OBTAINED ONE
MILLION IN FREE LOANS.
(J. c. q. scrvice.)


New York-At the annual meeting
of the Hebrew Free Loan Society of
this city it appeared that during the
year of 1920 the free loans totalled
more than a million dollars. Despite
|, the large amount advanced and the
particularly pressing times, the losses
of the society in unpaid loans amount
cd to only $275. Mortimer l.. Schiff,
who was the chief guest at the meet
ing, discussing this phase of the So
ciety's experience, said:
This loss constituted infallible evil
dence of the fair and upright inten-
tions of the borrowers that the peo-
pie who come here have been helped
or else they would not have been able
to repay"
Mr.. Julius J. Duaas, president of the
Society, commenting ON the same
phase, declared: This Insignificant
loss is not due to the fact that we
have grown more cautious by expert
ence, but that the institute is promot-
ing a real and permanent welfare OF
those it is designed to aid"

Half of New Yorks Meat
Kosher Butchered
GOVERNMENT REPORTS SHOW
IMPORTANCE OF KOSHER II
TRADE IN LARGE CITIES OF

The importance of the kosher meat
trade in New York City is shown in
recent Government reports indicating
that almost hnlf of the city's meat is
kosher slaughtered. "Kosher" is Il
Hebrew word meaning ceremonially
clean according to Jewish law.
During 1920" says the Market Re-
porter, issued by the Department of
Agriculture, ''there were slaughtered
in New York in round numbers ABS, 900
cattle, $4,000 calves and 1,290, 400
sheep and lambs. OF these approxi-
mately 9S per cent. of the cattle.
0S per cent. of the calves, and
Is per cent. of the sheep and the lambs
were slaughtered and dressed in ac-
corilance with the Hebrew regulations.
If in connection with the above there
is taken into account the fact that
between so and % per cent. Of the
meat consumed in New York City is
slaughtered locally, the Importance of
aosher meats becomes apparent.
while considerable numbers of live
stock are koshered in almost every city
of any considerable size the trade
naturally reaches its greatest volume
in the great centres of population like
New York. Jersey City, Boston. Pbila-
delphia and Chicago. New York City
with its Jewish population of approxi-
mately 1,JOO,OOO is. the largest kosher
meat market in the United States and
possibly in the world.
1.-THE fact that the kosher trade
uses only the fore quarters accounts
to considerable extent for the large
number of animals required TO sup
ply that class of trade The hind quar-
ters are always sold to the gentle
trade. In New York City and Phila-
delphia the ribs are sold to gentilcs
in addition to the hind quarters.
1.-THE kosher trade is confined al
most exclusively to heavy, fat ami
mails, and for that reason kosher
slaushter produces q tonnage Of meat
per given number Of animals much
higher than the average resulting from
slaughter for gentle consumption"
While kosher slaughter is primar
lily of religious nature, being per-
formed by the Schochet or his deputy.
it is also n system Of inspection and
antedates the modern Government in-
,spection by several thousand years.

NEED OF HUNGARIAN JEWS
URGENT.

The appeal states that at no time

on the part of the many Hungarian

BABY BORN AT SEA, MOTHER
DIES.

Joseph BarOndess, formerly men,
Der of the Board of Education, of
New York City, carried away from
the immigration station on Ellis ISL
and last week the baby 1f an immi-
grant woman, Elka Lerner, who had
died after the birth of the child, and
who was a cousin of Mr.. Barondess
The baby had been born on the steam
er Chicago on February Is, two days
before the ship arrived in New York
Harbor.
'This baby is pitiful remnant Of
a once potential family" said Mr..
Barondess as group of onlookers
gathered around him, wondering why
he should be on Ellis Island with an
immigrant infant in his arms. The
rest of that family, or the most of
them, were murdered in the most saw
age of the Ukraine poeroms. Com
ing here to find refuge in the United
States, Herah Lerner and his wife,
Elka, parents of the baby, arrived on
February II. The baby had been born
at sea two days previously. The
mother was my relative and mem
ber of family that was well-nigh
wiped out in the pogroms of two years
ago ut Kitagorod, State of Podol, Uk-
raine. The mother never recovered
after the birth of the child and died
in the Ellis Island Hospital
