An Appreciation by DR.. Samuel Gross
Bernard Silberstein, at the age Of
"A years, honored, loved and respect
ed by all who knew him, died at his
home in Duluth Monday morning,
Sept. 18th.
Mere words seem impotent to ex-
press the esteem in which Mr.. Silber-
stein was held; the love his friends
bore him and the respect that none
denied him. Outside of Duluth, his
name was not household treasure in
every Jewish home because he was
not ambitious for renown. For that
very reason his name was the more
dear to Duluth. He was we'll known
in the northwest and highly respected
wherever he was known. Mr.. Sill
bernstein was the father of Duluth's
Jewish community in every sense. He
was Duluth's oldest Jewish citizen as
well as it's oldest merchant from the
standpoint of original settlement.
The fifty-two years he lived in Du-
luth embrace the whole period of
Jewish immigration into this section
of the country. A community of
three thousand Jewish souls, growing
up amidst it's many problems, looks
to it's ADLER and more fortunate men,
bers for support and inspiration. For
fifty-two years the problems of his
brethren were his problems, their tri-

THE AMERICAN JEWISH WORLD

THE AMERICAN JEWISH We
asked that he be buried in a Jewish
cemetery. He said that in order to
achieve his ambition to become the
General Manager Of the Hamburg
American line he had to conceal the
fact that he was Jew. His name
was Ludendorf-a brother of the fam
GUS or Infamous General Ludendorf,
who as result of this amazing story
is discovered to the world to be con-
verified Jew despite the fact that he
is so bitter toward the Jews. I wonder
just how much truth there is in this
tale. One thing is true, however, that
converted Jews are more intolerant
and bitter toward their former breth-
rem than are Christians. It seems to
(. me that half Of the population of Ger
many must have Jewish blood in their
veins; at least the half that amounts
to anything.
Now this isn't fair. The Indiana
Jewish Chronicle" with it's seven
rabbinical editors Count 'em-seven)
has been the recipient of scolding on
the part of some Of our Jewish week
lies because WITH it's SEVEN RAB-
BIS as editors, it accepted Ford ad-
vertisement. am quite sure that not
one of seven with possibly the excep-
ton Of the publisher himself, knew
that Ford advertisement was in the
paper unless their attention was called
to it. No more than the editorial
writer on daily paper knows what
advertisements come to the paper
over the counter. And I am sure that
these seven estimable and leading
members of the American Rabbinate
are in no wise responsible and should
not be censured for a mistake on the
part of the business office. Ford re-
personalities have tried for long
time to get advertisements in Jewish
newspapers but have been unsuccess-
full.
In a copy of a Catholic Magazine
that has been handed to me, I find
statement headed. Jewish lawyer
Educates Boy for Priesthood" The
article tells of an experience of the
Right Rev. Monsignor Francis c.
Kelley, president Of the Catholic
Church Extension Society: "Some
years ago." he said, II received an
urgent message from a well-known
Jewish lawyer to meet him at lunch.
He drew letter from his pocket. It
read: I have heard Of your generous
donation to-, and I wonder if you
would help boy who has his heart
upon becoming Catholic Priest. My
father works in the stockyards and is
too poor to send me to college?" 1t
was written by boy.
The Jew said: II want you to help
me find that boy" The boy was
found and his benefactor paid for his
education, his clothes and his board.
Monsignor Kelley then concludes with
this: II tell this story not to praise
the lawyer-for he would resent any
public thanks, but to shame Chris
tians; at least those of them who
would think it too great sacrifice to
do for their own as much as this man
gladly did for the little boy of creed
which is so far removed from his
own"

The American Jewish world. [volume] (Minneapolis ;) 1915-current, 1922-09-08

At the World Zionist Congress in
Carlsbad, a number of Zionists pro-
tested against the policy Of the Zionist
leaders in limiting for the time being
the number of immigrants to be ad-
mitted to Palestine. But DR.. Weiz-
mann pointed out that in this case the
conditions of immigration must Of
necessity be reversed. The flow Of
money must precede immigration.
Any one conversant with conditions in
Palestine must recognize the force of
DR.. Weizmann's statement. By rea-
son of the economic conditions it is
impossible to give Jewish labor suffi-
cient employment and only as the
funds for the rehabilitation are in
creased in that proportion will the i'm
migration bars be let down. It would
be nothing short of calamity If all
the Jews who are waiting to rush into
Palestine would be permitted to en-
ter without provision having been
made for their needs.

and War Savings Stamps. The Treas
ury department learned that a spirit
OF saving had grown up in this country,
but the War Savings Stamps did not
meet the requirements OF the people,
and provision was made to issue
Treasury Saving Certificates, which
have proven very popular. The govern
ment still needs money; it must have
money to refund and liquidate war OBJ
legations. We are still paying mighty
sums to finance a war three years
past, and will continue to pay for years
to come. Consequently the treasury

WheedIe hard earned money from the
guiIible, unless federal laws are broken.
When the mails are used for defraud-
ing people the government can reach
out and seize the offender, as well as
deny him the use Of the mails in the
future by fraud order. In territory
controlled by the United States, the
government is also in position to run
down and punish criminals. But that
control covers only small area. The
whole country, practically, is policed
by the different states. The states
make their own "blue sky laws. and
the swindlers and similar criminals
must be arrested and punished by the
state authorities.
At the same time the treasury de-
partment, where much information re-
garding swindling operations is sent,
desires to encourage the publicity
campaign that is now being waged
against the scoundrels who are Fleeing
the people. Only through a concerted
effoftsby the press of the country can
information be given to all the people,
with q warning against all confidence
men, glib takers, promoters, takers,
and all others who cannot show Gre
dentials and an honest purpose. Treas
ury officials express amazement that
people will pass by bank or postof-
flee where Treasury Certificates and
Postal Savings can be obtained, and
hand their money over to the first
smooth talker who shows them a gilt
tering gold brick or a highly colored
and profusely pictured stock certifi-
cate.
While the government did not inau-
gurate the Postal Savings System and
the New Issue OF Treasury Savings
Certificates solely for the purpose Of
protecting the people against the con-
ftdence men, it has no doubt saved
many millions which would have gone
into the hands of those who make it
a business Of swindling people. Postal
Savings deposits now amount to $145,-
100000, Is per cent coming from people
of foreign countries, although the in
terest on such savings is only 2 per
cent. The foreign born people believe
that this money is safe with the gov
eminent.
The Treasury Savings Certificates
are an outgrowth of the World war.
When War Savings Stamps were sold,
mainly as a means of obtaining money
held by the people in small amounts,
it was learned that there was spirit
Of thrift and saving throughout the
country which ought to be encouraged.
After the war it was found that the
War Savings Stamps did not meet the
changed conditions, and a better
method was developed in Treasury
Savings Certificates. These new GER
tificates have proven to be very attrac-
tive form of investment wherever
they have become known, paying inter-
est at the rate of IL per cent, COM
pounded semi annually, making per
cent a year when held to maturity,
which is five years. They are issued In
denominations as low as $25--a certin-
cate of SIS can be bought for $40
bringing them within the reach of ev-
cry person with an inclination to save
They also are available for persons Of
larger means, as certificates to the
amount of $1,000 can be purchased for
$4,000.

money resulted in the sale of bonds
