BROWN TO LEAD ENGLISH CAM
PAIGN FOR JEWISH WAR
SJIFFERERS
SUFFERERS


David A. Brown, of Detroit, who
led the campaign last Fall and Win
ter in this country which raised ap-
proximately $17,OOO,OOO for the war
suffering Jews of Europe, has been
prevailed upon to volunteer his serv-
ices to conduct a similar campaign
in England, it was announced today
by Henry H. Rosenfelt, National
Director of the American Jewish Re-
lief Committee.
Mr.. Brown is now in Russia, after
having visited Poland, Czekoslovakia,
Austria, Hungary and Roumania as
one of the commissioners recently
sent abroad by the American Jewish
Relief Committee to review the efforts
of the Jews of this country to relieve
their war-stricken brethren, and to
efforts, with particular reference to
reconstruction.
= In yielding to the opportunities of
leading British Jews to put on in
England campaign with methods
similar to those that have proved sue
cessful in America, Mr.. Brown, writ
ing from Vienna, said:
$50 far, I have heard and seen
enough TO warrant me saying That
every pound raised in England and
the Colonies can be used in addition
to the funds raised in America. At
best, we are doing but very little, for
the millions Of people to help and the
many activities that are necessary,
you can realize that our millions of
dollars cannot do much for each in
dividual. One great effort on the
part of the Jews of Great Britain
at this time would not only be help
full to these people, but the knowledge
that the Jews Of Great Britain were
so interested in the sufferings of
their fellow Jews in the lands of mis-
cry would raise their spirits and give
them hope and make them want to
live to go on, which is one of the
finest things we can put into their
souls, especially when they are so
disheartened and hopeless"
National Director Rosenfelt has
cabled Mr.. Brown assuring him of
the completest possible cooperation
which will be launched when he has
completed his tour of Russia.

OUR NEW YORK LETTER

Ask anybody in New York why
communal life is so deadly dull and
you will receive the seasonal excuse.
With the temperature about 81, the
metropolis is "deserted"- except for
the several million people who can't
help themselves. But, communal &C
tivity depends not on handful of
millions as much as on the handful of
workers, paid and unpaid, whose
leaving the city synchronizes with,
if indeed it does not presage, the ar
rival of the sweltering heat wave. The
Jewish "workers" are decidedly in the
class of departees. Not all of them
perhaps, but enough to create that
wait-till- the -fall-comes attitude in the
communal mind. Philanthropic activ-
ity proceeds by inertia. Institutional
work continues where it cannot be
stopped. But creativeness in the COM
munal sense is at an inverse ratio
to the temperature. BY the middle
of August it has fallen to below zero.
Granted that it is too hot to do
anything constructively,, even for the
masses whose problem is not how to
climb up the social ladder via the
"I'm stopping at the Citz Rarlton,"
but who cannot leave the heat-strick-
en- city even for record breaking hot
and humid day, why can't we think?
And if we can't think constructively,
let us think palliatively. Let us
think about that fire-swept Jewish
orphan asylum at Shawbridge, Can
ada, and the charred bodies of a score
or so orphans who were entrusted to
an. institution, which, by some ac-
counts, was "said" not to have fire.

fire-wrecked orphan asylum of Ar

NEW ANTISEMITIC OUTBREAKS
IN SILESIA

Berlin q. T. Az The papers here
report new anti-Semitic outbreaks in
that part of Silesia which has been
occupied by the Poles, especially in
Kattowitz. Anti-Semitic crowds at
tackled Jewish passers-by on the
streets, broke into Jewish shops and
houses. Jews were driven from hotels
and forced to take trains to Galicia.
The pogroms are said to have been
caused by reports in anti-Semitic pa
pers which declared that the Jews
were responsible for the high price
of food. The police did not inter-
vene at the beginning. It was not
until late last night that they took
action. Today, new outbreaks are re-
ported. Similar excuses are report
ed from the villages in the vicinity
of Kattowitz. No deaths have oc-
Cured, although many casualties
have been reported.

verne-not by the trumpets and fan
fares accompanying the appeal for
it's new, let us hope, fire-proof con-
struction, but in terms of the near
catastrophe, of what might have hap
pened if some one had not led the
children to safety.
There is plenty of food for ref1ec-
ton in the thought that we have far
too many ill-equipped Jewish insti-
buttons, and too many Federations
countenancing and encouraging their
longevity with generous subsidies.
Why not substitute construction for
nominal coordination and vain at
tempts at avoiding duplication? It
would be better by far to deny sup
port to existing institutions if they
do not come up to the mark, than to
simply tolerate them, even as public
nuisances, to make them safe for
clinging office holders.
A school of Jewish guides was or
ganized recently by the Palestine
Zionist Executive, following a sug-
gestion by the Trade and Industry
Department of Palestine, which urged
the necessity Of training number of
young Jews as competent guides for
tourists.

ATTACK GERHARDT HAUPT-
MANN FOR PRO-JEWISH
FEELINGS

Berlin q. T. Az. Gerhardt Haupt-
mann, famous German writer, has
celebrated his sixtieth birthday. The
anti-Semitic press took this oppor-
tunity to attack and insult him, &C
cusing him of being a friend of the
Jews. They reproach him for having
invited the well-known Berlin pub
Usher, S. Fischer, and his latest biog-
rapher, Artur Eloezer, and other Jew
ish authors to his birthday testimoni-
al.
The Berlin Paper, "Wahrheit," con-
trasts the celebration Of the Goth
birthday of the writer Otto Ernst
with that of Hauptmann, saying the
former is not 'honored like Haupt-
mann because he is a German Nation
alist, thus mourning the wrath of the
Jewish Press.
