EVIDENCE FAILS TO HOLD MEN
Men Charged With Burglary Released
Because of Insufficient Evidence.

William Compton. p. III. Dodson and
Archer saunders, who were arrested
at Whitefish, Mont, last week and
brought here to answer to a charge of
robbery, were given a hearing before
Judge Henderson this morning and
released on account of insufficient
evidence. Clarence Wagner, a cham
pion bicycle rider of Terre Haute.
Ind, the complaining witness against
the men, says they were the ones who
robbed him and then forced him at the
point of a gun, to leap from fast
moving freight train between Naples
and Elmira. The men, however. claim
the robbery was committed by three
other men and that they themselves
were held up on the train.
Wagner told straight ht-forward
story and was positive in his identifi-
cation of the suspects, but Judge Hem
derson was of the opinion that the evil
dence against the men was not suffic-
lent to bind them over to the district
court
Among the papers taken from Wag-
ner in the hold-up was his army dis
charge, which he is very anxious to
have returned AS some of the other
papers taken from him were later
found along the railroad, leading TO
the belief that the robbers had thrown
them away, he has hopes that some
one may find his discharge paper.
Anyone finding il. please return to

FRENCH PRESIDENT VISITS
FAMOUS SYNAGOGUE

Tunis q. C. B.)-The synagogue
of the "Ghriba" in Tunis is famous
for the pilgrimages that are made
there every year by the Jews of
Morocco, Tripoli, Algeria and Tunis.
While the President of the French
Republic was in Tunis the program
of his tour included visit to this
Synagogue. At the entrance more
than $50 old Rabbis, standing in
row, waited for the President who,
on entering the Synagogue was pre-
scented with bouquets adorned with
tri-colored ribbons. The girls were
clad in biblical robes and wore bril-
liant jewels. The President was great
ly moved by the reception. He then
entered the part of the Synagogue
where the Scrolls of the Law are kept
and bowed to them reverently. He
asked many questions which were an
swered by the Chief Rabbi and trans
lated to him. The President asked the
Rabbis to conduct divine service dur
ing his presence, and this was done
with much ceremony. Blessings were
offered for M. Millerand and heard
with great reverence.
During his visit the President also
visited the "Salon Tunisien," where
there was an exhibition of paintings.
M. Millerand walked through the
room in which were hung the pic

REVEALS ATTEMPT TO START
POGROM ON EAST SIDE

Chicago g. T. A.)-An astound-
ing story of attempts made by New
York agents of Henry Ford to organ
ize a pogrom on the East Side of
New York by beginning with the
looting of a synagogue, is told in the
Jewish Courier" by Adolph Balm,
a former investigator of the depart
ment of Justice, later connected with
Ford's anti-Semitic Research Office
at Suite 81, 20 Broadway, New
York.
Mr.. Bailin's story, more shocking
than that told by Norman Hapgood
in Hearst's International Magazine,
tells how Mr.. Smith, Henry Ford's
chief agent in New York, had con-
spired with members of the old Rus
sian "Okrana" against American
Jews. Details of spying system by
which prominent American Jews
were constantly Swallowed are also
contained in Bailin's account.
The connection between Ford's
agents and anti-Semitic propagan-
dists in Russia, Japan and Germany
is also revealed in the we'll docu-
mented story containing number
of interesting exhibits, showing the
complete international ramifca-
tions of Ford's international conspi-
racy against Jews.

CANADIAN JEWS TO FIGHT
IMMIGRATION BAN

Toronto q. G. B.)-Every Jew IN
Canada is urged to wire to the Par
liamentary member of his district
protesting against the new immigra-
ton law, in communication issued
by the Canadian Jewish Congress.
Free immigration is urged in the
interests of Canada itself since
larger population would result in a
reduction of the present high taxa
ton. The Jewish constituencies are
accordingly advised to bring pressure
to bear upon their representatives
in Parliament, with a view to secur-
ing modification of the new drastic
restrictions permitting immigration
to farmers, agricultural laborers, and
maid servants.
A new resolution amendment to
l the immigration Bill introduced in
the Dominion Parliament provides
that immigrants apply in writing to
the immigration Department before
leaving the country of origin.
The mover of this Bill, which has
passed on first reading, claims that
it is intended thereby to prevent in
justice to immigrants who are fire.

Accuse SHUTS of Anti-Semitism

Cape Town q. G. B.)-The South
African Review" published here,
prints leading article on the subject
of anti-Semitism in regard to the i'm
migration restrictions in South Africa.
General Smuts," it writes, denied
that the government is anti-Semitic,
but simultaneously revealed the Glow
en- hoof of anti-Semitism by saying,
"the government did not intend to ap-
ply the immigration laws in a spirit
of hostility to Jews, but welcomed
the Jewish population so long as it
was of the right class" You do not
find General SHUTS saying that he
welcomes Christians as long as they
are of the right class. So far from
disproving anti-Semitism it proves it.
This is another case where the on
locker, that is, the non-Jew, sees the
game better.

HELD FOR MURDER FOLLOWING
DAUGHTERS SUICIDE

Warsaw q. c. B.)-FOIIoWlng the
suicide of Jewish girl who was pre-
vented by her parents and the Priest
from being baptized, the parents have
been arrested on charge of murder,
in Krinik, near Bialostock.
Excitement prevails among the
Christians of the place, who believe
the girl was driven to drink poison by
the parents refusal.
Additional interest is supplied by
the stand of the Priest in absolving
the family of any blame.
The situation is grave for the Jew
ish family, and special prayers have
been offered at the synagogue. The

EX-KAISER MAY BE SUMMONED
AS WITNESS IN JEWISH CASE

Berlin Ct. C. B.)-The German ex-
kaiser will be summoned as a witness
in the suit of M. Dinter, the German
author, who is suing the "Berliner
Tageblatt" for libel, if the proposal
of DR.. Klee, attorney for the defense,
is accepted. The trial has grown out
of an anti-Semitic novel published re-
Gently by Dinter in which alleged ex-
tracts were quoted from the Talmud
and the Kol Nidre services, in sup
port of the authors anti-Semitic
thesis. In reviewing the book the
"Tageblatt" maintained that the au
thor is making capital by misrepre-
senting both the Talmud and the
Liturgy. Furthermore, the "Tage-
blatt" declares that the ADVERTISE
ment appearing on the jacket of the
book quoting the ex-kaiser as approx
ing of the authors views, is a down.
right forgery. In support of this con-
tention DR.. Klee, for the defense, has
suggested that the ex-k kaiser be heard

LITHUANIAN ENVOY DENIES
ABRIDGEMENT OF JEWISH
RIGHTS

Washington q. C. B.)-Following
representations made by the organiza-
ton for the American Jewish Con-
gress, Congressman Walter Chandler
of New York, who has been promi-
nent friend of Lithuania, called on DR..
Carneckis, Lithuanian representative
in Washington, and expressed his dis
appointment over the reports that the
Kowno government has not been car
rying out the national rights clauses
for Lithuania's minority groups, in
GLIDING the Jewish minority.
Congressman Chandler is under
stood to have made it clear that the
Lithuanian government should not
expect American support or recogni-
ton of Lithuanian independence if
Lithuania were to break her promise
to the Jews, or fail to properly safe
guard their minority rights.
Referring to the resolution now
pending in Congress for recognition of
the Lithuanian government, Con-
gresham Chandler, who, with Con-
gresham SABBATH of Chicago, has been
foremost in championing the resolu-
ton, said that the opposition of
American Jews would be fatal to the
resolution.
The Lithuanian envoy is said to
have denied that there was any in
tention not to keep faith with the
Jews, and deplored the reports, which
he characterized as misleading" and
Exaggerated" There was an I'M
favorable vote in the Sejm on the Sec
ond reading of the National Rights
provisions, the minister said, "but
the adverse vote was directed only
against the special ministry for Jew
ish affairs, and not to Jewish rights
as whole. An official report he had
received from Kowno, he said, empha-
sizes that no final disposition will be
made until after the third reading,
when he was certain that the action
taken would be favorable.

THE PRICE OF ADOPTION

To be admitted to these shores,
7-year-old Anna Rosenzweig became
by adoption, Anita Rivori De Copet,
having been adopted by Miss Juliet
De Copet. This child immigrant had
been detained at Ellis Island for sew
eral weeks while officials considered
her deportation. Then along came
Miss De Copet who decided to take
little Anna in and give her home.
There was nothing in the report to
indicate Miss De Copet's religion.
Anna Rosenzweig's religion can be
guessed. One wonders if the price
little Anna paid for her admission to
the United States was just her name,
or something else besides.

novel, "Der Veg ms Freie" (The Road
to the Open) in which he described the
anti-Semitic and assimilationist
circles of Vienna, and drama, "Pro-
fessor Bernhardi," in which he por-
trayed the narrow-minded anti-Semi-
tism of certain circles in Vienna. In

by campaign conducted by the anti
Semites in Vienna against Schnitzler's
