lands since the approval of the Pal
estine Mandate, was formally opened
on Friday, August 25th, with He
brew speech by Nahum Sokolow,
chairman of the executive committee
of the World Zionist Organization.
The meeting, Mr.. Sokolow declared,
marks the 25th anniversary of the
founding of the Zionist Organization,
which was called into being by the
genius of DIR. Herzl Few organiza-
tons can look back to such a past
and such leadership, Mr.. Sokolow as
serted, as the assembly rose to honor
the memory of the departed leader.
"The League of Nations has unani-
mously proclaimed that the Jewish
people is alive" he said. eve are en-
tering upon the era of fulfillment I'M
der triple auspices, all of which are
favorable. First and foremost, our
faith reposes in the determination Of
King George to fulfill promise made
by his Government. Secondly, we are
armed with the guarantee of the
League of Nations, of which we be-
lieve Jerusalem will ultimately be-
come the seat. Thirdly, we depend
upon the Jewish people. This, then,
is an all-Jewish day of rejoicing. We
call upon Israel to respond and come
with U.S."
The address of DR.. Weizmann, as
President of the World Zionist Or
ganization dealt with the political i'm
plications of the present Zionist stu
alton. "The ratification of the Pal
estine Mandate" he said, "is the full
fillment of the first point of the Basic
program. But our task is rendered
thrice difficult because we have to
contend with difficult land, diff
cult people, and difficult time"
DR.. Weizmann regretted that some
of the expectations had been unful-
filled as indeed some of the Zionist
gloss has worn off, in the exigencies
Of the struggle. But he warned the
assembly that loyalty to Britain, the
Mandatory Power, is essential and
that through such loyalty Zionists
may look to the ''broadest possibili-
ties"

struggle, the American people and

DR.. Weizmann, in his opening
speech, announced the Administra-
TONS view that the Jewish Agency be
the Representative organ of the Jew
ish people"
i, awe shall deal with the large Jew

people and the great Jewish parties,
hoping thereby to secure common

An official declaration of friendship
for Palestine's Arab population was
also included in DR.. Weizmann's open

voiced his "deep conviction that the

HIGH CLASS PLAY AT LIBERTY

The show at the Liberty last night, (showing again tonight), is one of un- usual quality. It is one of those terr- ble, but wonderful plays of the kind that made Bernhardt and Duse famous "a tragedy superbly acted. Priscilla Dean proves her right to the first rank of actress by her. perfect work in this play
 The name Reputation" is apt, but in our opinion, "Retribution" would have conveyed the plot better. Miss Dean takes the parts of both Mother and Daughter, but in the mother role shows her ability to portray the in- tense emotions. It is a seven-reel play that all lovers of real action should see.
