| Credit for the victory which the
Jews Of Lithuania have scored in OBJ
tainiEg national autonomy" under the
new Lithuanian Constitution. is in
large measure due to the efforts OF
the Jews of America, who have watch
ed over the interests. of. their breth-
rem ON the other side.
For time there was danger oE the
clause guaranteeing minority rights,
which are so vital to the weli-being
of the Jews in Lithuania. being omit
ted from the Constitution. despite the
fact that representatives of the Lith-
uanian Government had made the
promise to the Committee of Jewish
Delegation at Paris in December, 1910
that such rights would be granted to
the Jews.
Last January, acting upon advices
received from abroad that Jewish
rights are in danger of being over
looked in the new constitution, the
American Jewish Congress took steps
to exert moral pressure upon the Iitl.
uanian Government that the latter
keep its promise. DR.. Stephen 8. Wise,
at present chairman of the Congress
Executive, took the matter up with
the representatives of the Lithuanian
Government as well as with officials
of the American Government.
The American Jewish Congress back
ed by the Jewish press thereafter
called upon the American Jews to rally
to the support OF their Lithuanian
brethren. When the Lithuanian Jews
held their Congress last February, the
American Jewish Congress cabled a
demand in the name Of the many af-
fliated Jewish central and national or
ganizations, that the Lithuanian Gov
ernment keep its promise and grant
the Jews within its borders local au-
tonomy.
Leaders of the American Jewish
Congress took the matter up with
Congressman Chandler of New YORK
and Congressman Sabbath Of Chicago,
the latter having introduced In Con-
gress n resolution providing for the
recognition of Lithuania. and asked
that Lithuania be held to her promise
with respect to Jewish rights before
she is given recognition by the United
States.
The recent session of the American
Jewish Congress at Philadelphia
adopted resolution, which undOubt-
edly had great bearing upon the final
decision to incorporate the minority
clause in the Constitutions. The res
olutioa read az follows:
RESOLVED, Tint the American
Jewish Congress- has noted with deep
sorrow that the Lithuanian Govern
ment has up to this time failed to
carry out the terms of the solemn
agreement made by its representatives.
with the committee of Jewish Delega-
tions in Paris, December, 1919.
The American Jewish Congress most
earnestly trusts that Lfthuania will
rot mark its re-entry into national ex-
istence by, failing to keep the plight
ed troth of its Government and people
to its faithful and loyal Jewish citi-
zens and therefore fail to achieve that
recognition at the hands of our Gov
ernment which America will and must
rightly withhold unless and until Lith-
uania shall in spirit and substance
have fulfilled her convenant with her
Jewish citizens.

PARIS. April 20.-Russis's popula-
tion is dying at such an appa ling rate,
declared reports received today by
American relief agencies in Paris, that
the doctors are unable to cope with
the situation. In many cases. the re
ports said. physicians. nurses and hos
pital interDes are succumbing to i'm
poverishment and overwork. and pedes-
trians are dying in the streets daily.
The situation throughout the country
is assuming grave proportions. The
spring thaw is causing rivers and cthe,
water sources to become polluted with
bacflli.
The Moscow headquarters OF the
American Relief Administration today
telegraphed an urgent request to the
American Red Cross in Paris to ship
Immediately 1000 600 doses Of vaccine
to combat cholera. typhoid and para
typhoid. The American Red Cross al
ready has sent l0.0aa.000 doses of vac
cines for other diseases. The Pasteur
Institute is working night and day TO
complete acquisitions which are the
largest in the history Of the institute.
A whole ton of serum is dispatched
from Paris to Moscow every week by
American relief authorities. The value
is so great that shipments carry double
insurance and are conveyed by armed
couriers.
