animals, machinery, knowledge
these are the prime needs. The sum
of 100000 advanced last spring by
the Joint Distribution Committee to
Jewish farmers through cooperative
organizations have gone mainly for
seeds for this falls sowing, and for
plow- horses. Fifty American tractors
would suffice not only for plowing up
all the Jewish acreage, but also to
assist hundreds of non-Jewish farm
ers, and increase the good will al
ready developing. A few squads Of
teachers drafted from the National
Farm School and the Agricultural
School at Woodbine, would be able
to give these farmers sufficient train
ing in the field for all practical pur-
poses and a fair number Of horses
and cattle would go far toward in
creasing production. Of course that
does not cover all Of their needs, but
it will help the Jewish farmers re-
tain possession, and what is equally
important, to make it possible for
them to crafty their new urge back
to the soil.'"
Of the $1,24O,OOO which has been
placed at the disposal of DIR. Rosen
for carrying out his new project, he
plans to use 100000 to establish
vocational training schools for the
Jewish youth of the Ukraine, another
project which is approved by the gov
ernment. Two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars will go toward the
founding if a credit-bank for farmers.
Both these schools will have the CO.
operation of the government. Trac-
tors, agricultural implements and
seeds will be purchased in this coun-
try by DR.. Rosen before his return
to Europe where he will confer with
the officers of the Jewish Colonization
Association in Paris, who, he stated,
are prepared to make an appropria-
tion equal to that of the Joint Distri-
button Committee for the development
of agriculture as a Jewish vocation
in Russia.
Among the other items provided for
in the appropriations for this project
which is the greatest single piece Of
reconstruction undertaken by the
Joint Distribution Committee, are
$4,000 for pure-bred seed corn to be
multiplied and distributed by the
Ukraine Improved Seed Distribution
Society; $15O,0O0 for tractor squads
and equipment; $250,0O0 for live
stock, implements, seeds and plants,
and $250,000 for general assistance

public opinion and the movement
towards consolidation within the
country has brought to Hungarian
Jewry a certain amount of respite,
notwithstanding the fact that the anti
Semitic regime still goes on. In this
spell of calm, which may be but an
interval before the storm breaks
again, it will be as well to give a
little thought to the horror of the
times through which we have passed.
To recount all the injustices, the per-
secutions, and the tortures which have
had to be endured and to some ex-
tent are still being endured by the
Jewish population of Hungary, which
not for a single moment swerved from
it's loyalty to it's Fatherland, and par
ticipated far beyond its powers in the
efforts of the war and in the move
ment to counteract the doings of the
extremist revolutionaries is not merely
difficult but actually impossible.
These things are beyond description.
We have passed through time which
is too terrible to think of, and we
have not yet arrived at period of
pacifcation which will allow us to
speak of it openly and without con-
C0dlIHcIlGs uC WOulIu0 ak oClA1 lASSAiS
the blood is not yet dry, our sufferings
have not yet been stilled.
Instead, therefore, of dealing with
the sufferings of Hungarian Jewry
as a whole-an impossibility-I will
confine myself to relating my own
experiences during those past three
years.
I was distinguished from among
all my other Jewish fellow-citizens
by being privileged person. was
protected by my right Of immunity
as a Member of Parliament. I could
not be molested. My public activity,
reaching back to many years was
beyond suspicion. There was not
single episode, however slight, which
could be manipulated by the anti
Semitic press, no matter what its
wishes, to throw discredit upon me.
The demagogic agitators who went
about the country melting the mob
had nothing to seize upon in my pub
lie or my private life to use for their
purposes, willy nilly, they were forced
to be quiet. Yes, despite that, neither
the terror of the Bolshevists nor the
subsequent terror of the anti-Semites
left me untouched.
Which of the two was harder
to bear? One was as despicable as
the other. Perhaps the second period
of terror was the more despicable be-
cause the things which were done out.
of lust for revenge were worse than
those which were committed under
Bolshevism, which on the whole con-
tented itself with employing the ter
ror in order to attain it's Communist
ends.
What was the feeling dominating
us at the time, it is difficult now to
say. Perhaps it would be best put
in these words-we never knew if the
next hour would still find US alive.
There was one moment when was
unofficially given to understand that 7
had best leave the country, because
my life was not worth a penny piece.
But I refused to run away. A friend
of mine, locksmith, secured my door
with few sound locks. On the table
of my bedroom kept constantly ready
two loaded revolvers, and as I had
always had a steady hand and a
steady eye, / felt that I was suffi-
ciently safe. Letters threatening me

occasions when it was attempted in
real earnest to start organized
pogroms. On both occasions it was
found possible, with the aid of nom
Jewish friends, to suppress these at
tempts. Perhaps it was not altogether
because of their love for the Jews
but because they feared that after
the Jews the movement might spread
against others. Today, it is possible
to speak of these things a little, be-
cause even the more extreme elements
no longer think that our unfortunate
country can be put back on it's feet
by means of pogrom. There are
a considerable number of people in
Hungary now who realize that Hun
gary can obtain the confidence of for
eign public opinion only by maintain
ing it's hard won law and order, and
that the economic question can never
be solved by the exclusion of the
Jews.
What was the feeling among the
Jews during the reign of terror?
Harassed and insecure, as it was
among the rest Of the denominations.
Imagine what sort of feeling was
possible when the Jews knew that
armed figures might suddenly rise
up at any moment out of the dark
and make an end of the life of peace
full citizens, and that among these
people there were large number of
hooligans who had no thought of any
moral aims whatever, and were only
out for plunder and sadisric gratifca-
ton. It is obvious that peaceful citi-
zens who go quietly about their work
are not armed, and not organized;
consequently, they were in such a
state that it was out of the question
to think of resistance, even the slight
est, to the activity Of the terrorists.
Night after night the Jews were as
saulted. Night after night there was
blood running in the streets. The
terrible things which were done
reached such pitch, that the more
thinking Christians were shocked out
of their Indifference, and without
having any particular sympathy
towards their Jewish fellow citizens,
they were compelled to make stand
against the excesses.
Particular gratitude is due to Count
Albert Apponyi, to whom during these
dark days, hundreds of our suffering
co-religionists appealed, and not in
vain; also to the courageous Pro-
testant Bishop Desider Balthasar, who
faced by thousands of perils, his own
life threatened, held high the banner
of liberal thought, and let the lash
of his words fall numerically on all
who deprived fellow-men of their
lives. My most profound gratitude
also to the nestor of Hungarian pub
licists, Eugene Rakosi, who, though
strictly conservative in views, fought
with the whole power of his mighty
pen against the purgatory of the
White Terror.
We Hungarian Jews were therefore
left to our own resources. At last
it was possible to bring the Jewish
question on to the floor Of the Ma
tional Assembly, the only forum from
which we could appeal to all circles.
Never in my life shall I forget the
speech which I delivered in the As
sembly in February, 1920. I showed
that the Hungarian Jews had come
into the country together with the
Magyars, that it was not the fault
of the Jews that Hungary had lost
tho war that HIM oarian Ieurv was

THE CLU1yrEREp DAsHBoARD

From In6 OCl6lllA1lC All
 One of our British contemporaries is responsible for the suggestion that the ex-aviator is responsible for the extraordinary multiplication of instruments which is to be seen on comparison of the dash of a current automible with a car of five or six years ago We think the idea Is a sound one, both as regards to the origin of the practice and In its inn plication of the utter folly thereof.
 Instruments on the dash are. of course, inevitable. Nobody wants to drive without a. speedom eter, an ann meter. and an oil gage. But why clock? Why an assorted collection of dials that make the inner eleva- tions of ones petroleum buggy re- semble the control board of a central power station, or an overcrowded pawnshop window? Why the present mad race for a multiplicity of nickel led protuberances in the cockpit of the road cruiser?
 Perhaps the answer Is to be found in a recent advertisement which con- siderably tickled our disabilities. The better part of an expensive page was devoted to picturing the supreme delight with which an owner might look upon the automatic cigar-light- CT that exclusively features the ad- yertisers machine-how from his proud station in this car he might look down with amused contempt upon the unfortunate driver wAose machine leaves him at the mercy of the match box when he wants smoke.
 Now all sorts of reasons dictate the choice of a car. We know q man whose wife was of such extraordi- nary bulk that only one American car possessed a door that woull admit her; but we have not seen the size of that door advertised on behalf of that car. We have no doubt that somewhere there exists man who would buy the X z car to get the cigar lighter. But are there enough of him to advertise to? We have no doubt that some folk will prefer the car with Is knobs and dials 60 the one with only IA.

COTTON MAKES
 A SLIGHT GAIN IN
 WEATHER OUTLOOK
General Market Closed Steady at a Net Advance of Six to Fourteea Points
 During Day
By Associated Press

New Ork, July 11.-EdFly dd- vances in the cotton market were promoted by relatively steady cables and prospects for showery weather in the southwest. No general or az gressive demand developed. however, and after selling at 22.17c, October contracts eased off to about 21.S4c, and closed at 21.94c, compared with 21S2c at the close of yesterday. The general market closed steady at a net advance of to IA points.
 The market opened steady at an advance of to points. It looked as though the sharp break of the previous day had left it in firmer technical position, and the relatively steady ruling of the Liverpool mar ket led to scattered covering. The somewhat steadier early ruling Of foreign exchange and apprehensions that showers in the southwest would lead 10 increased insect damage, helped the advance which extended to 22c for December and s21 .66c for Jan uaTY, or GJ lO POAhto aOOFo y S9 terdays closing quotations
 The demand then became less ac- tive while there was continued New Orleans and scattered southern sell ing, which turned the market easier during the early afternoon. Prices sold back to about early low levels, with December touching 21.70c, but the close was several points up from the lowest on renewed covering, ac- eompanied by reports of rain In Georgia. It was reported that pri- vate mid-month report showed no change in the condition of the crop as compared with end-June figures, which was considered as pointing to a slight increase in the individual yield, but which had comparatively little effect on the market.
 Private cables said an early decline in Liverpool was due to continental selling, after which there were rallies on Manchester buying. According Q private returns, domestic mill con sumption for June amounted to 4Sd,- 900 bales, compared with 462.o00 for the same month last year. Exports for the day were 4,737 bales, making 5,s66,94s so far this season. Port re ceipts, 10,203. United States port stocks 613474

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
 Rv Assoc,at~d Press

New Orleans, July 11.-Prospects Of showery weather over good part of the belt, better feeling regarding the for eign situation and what were considered bullish mid-month condition figures put the price of cotton higher today and held them at small advances practically throughout the session.
 At the highest the trading months were s2 to s3 points up. In the last trading burst of liquidation carried the market off to the lowest of the day to levels Of 2 points under to l point over the last quo tations of yesterday, but rumors over pri vate wires of a better turn in labor con ditions caused steadiness on the close which was at net advances of to le points. After rising to 2l.e3c. october Tell off to 2f.2sc and closed at 2l.4bc.
 Increased complaints of boil weevil dam age did much to offset the effect of dry weather map and, again, later on there were com plaints Of hot winds in some sections of the western belt along with accounts of heavy shedding. The market reached the highest levels of the day on these accounts. Toward noon, less support came in and liquidation from the long side increased. The heaviest selling of the session came in the early part of the last hour
 A private bureau mid-month report put the percentage of condition of the crop at T1.2, or the figure returned by the gov ernment for June 25. This was regarded as low because of the frequent claims of late crop Improvement.

Internationals Were
 The Bond Features
Rx Aasoo1ated Press

New York. July 1.-The feature of today's bond market was the firmer tone of international flotations. both the French and Belgian government loans recovering considerable por- tion of yesterdays losses.
 Rallies of large fractions to two points resulted from buying and speculative covering in French and Belgian 714s and Ss and French municipals were moderately better. though making less headway than government Issues.
 Among other foreign bonds changes were mixed. Czecho- -Slovakia Ss Brazil Ss and San Paulo ss showed heaviness while Mexican As were bet ter with Uruguay ss. British loans were uncertain on the reactionary trend of exchange rates and liber- ties finished at nominal gains and losses.
 There were few changes of note in the domestic rails, industrials and utilities, but final quotations showed a preponderance of gains. Total sales aggregated s12,2SS, ,0oo.
 The New York Central railroad company's new $25,o0o,ooo five per cent refunding bondsl over subscrib- ed almost at the opening of the sub- scription books, were quoted at a slight premium o nthe "curb." Other new underwritings of the day were readily absorbed.
