ported on the progress which liz found

DIR. Weizmann's Address
Just as IL stricken European world
turns its eyes to the mighty Republic
of the West as II great hnlwnrk of
civilization. exactly in the same way
do the Jewish communities of Europe
look to American .Tewry for moral and
material support in the upbuilding of
Jewish life in Palestine.
AT one time the Jewish communities
Of Europe gave both men and money
to the Zionist movement Now with
very few exception these communities
have been shattered by the great con
vulsion of the war and their recon
struction is retarded by the slow and
clumsy working of the political ma
chinery of Europe. The countries with
large Jewish populations are mostly
those in which the exchange and cur
.rcncy has greatly deteriorated. In one
sense they are even asource of mOmen-
tary nbarrnssment in the upbuilding
of Pnlest Inc because they throw off n
big stream of immigrants who eXer-

not overtaN the capacity of the cOun-
try. The one tremendous asset which
European Jewry contributes to the up
building of Palestine is its legiOns of
pioneers. Anyone who has been these
splendid specimens of young manhood
and womanhOOd at work in Palestine
is at once convinced that they will over
come all these obstacles which present
themselves to individuals who have
started out on new life in n new
country.

OFFERS BILL FOR REGISTRATION
OF NON-CITIZENS MEASURE. 1T
is ESTIMAED. WOULD AFFECT
SEVEN MILLION PEOPLE.
BY MAX RHOADE

Washington-A plan for the cstal-
all nhnaturalized aliens is proposed in
n bill introduced by Representative
Vale of Colorado today. Seven million
aliens. it is estimated. would he affect
ed ny the measure.
| BY the provisions of the measure. all
aliens now in America and all future
immigrants must register and pay an
nually a registration fee of ten dollars.
and acquire IN reasonably accurate
knowledge of American history a-id gov
crnmcnt' will he entitled to II reduced
rate of five dollars instead of the ten
dollars fee.
Aliens resident in the United States
on adoption of the bill will he subject
to twenty-five dollars penalty for
failurc to register, and immigrants ar
riving here would he required on en-
trance to pay such n fee. When fam

of the family will he obliged to pay
the registration fee.
The funds derived from the reSis'ra-
tion are to he used for n vast scheme
of AmcricaniZaiion work among immi-
grants. calling into service books. seem
arios and private classes for the work.
In view of the adjournment of Con-
gress. Vaile admits that his measure
stands no chance of passage at this Sos
sion. but Immediately upon reconvening
nine months hence the Colorado Con-
eirssman announces he will press for
its consideration.
OF the seven million aliens in. the
country. Vaile estimates only five per
cent have sought naturalization. The
President. he states. in his recent mes
sage to Congress. has called for such
legislation as this, and the sentiment
of the country likewise supports it.
The interim. he says. between the adj
session will afford the opportunity to
the public to consider the legislation.
AZ the beginning of the next session he
promises an energetic campaign in its
behalf.
Vaile ranks second to Chairman
johnson on the House Immigration
committee II was his immigratio bill
introduced few weeks ngo which WAS
accepted by the House Immigration
committee basis as basis for the hill
which was subsequently reported to
the House as the majority bill. With
out the strong pressure exertcd in its
behalf by Vaile. it is doubtful if
new immigration bill would have been
reported at this session.
Friends of immigration therefore en-
tertain little doubt that Vaile will put
up strong fight for his compulsory
registration project.
While admittedly restrictionist.
Vale processes to he humane He
points as proof to his humane" in
fluence on immigration laws the rel
ative exemption clause for which he
is responsible. although the reduction
from the three to two per cent quota
on the 1890 census also originated with
him.
4 number of other compulsory reg
istration measures have been introduce
ed in the House, but Vaile's bill is the
most comprehensive of all and is like
iy to he given the most consideration
by reason of his standing on the I'm
migration committee.

similar arrangement In Haifa. Each
tent has running wafer and every pre-

and hygiene. In Jafra the work Is
being done by Joshua Gordon. who is
n graduate OF Heidelberg and of Co
lumbin with the degree of Ph.D. The
system which he has introduced is
working very well.
What's the Matter With the Jews?
People who have been to Palestine
nre convinced of the possibilities of the
country to receive II large Jewish i'm
migration. 1t is heartbreaking to see
how little the Jews of the world are
going to make this possible. After ail
the promises that the Jews have made,
they are not making good. The country
is progressing largely without the Jews
from the outside. In London and else

in Americas since its completion,
has made money, Mr.. Cargill told
the Kiwanians, but all Of the reve-
nue. from its operation has gone into
the making of improvements there.
A total of $4,000 in bonds issued

while there are now outstanding
bonds to total of $1,000. It is de-

Malarial conditions in Americas

this condition to the cooperation

significant statement made by DR..
Chambliss in discussion of the sub

that there is not a single case of

little sickness of any kind.
While complimenting the house

number are expected next week,
and perhaps through the remainder
of September.
This enrolment includes 1872 in

enrolment is as follows: Sixth
Grade A, Miss Trap, 3S pupils ;
Six B, Mrs. Peterson, 80; Seven A,
Miss Bulloch, 80; Seven B, Miss
Padrick, %; Eight A, Miss Rice,
80; Eight B, Miss Britt, 80;
Ninth, Mr.. Anderson, 81; Eleventh
Miss Bush, 35; Miss Anthony 28.
There is such congestion in
the ninth grade that anoth-
er teacher is needed. There are
thirty-five in the graduating class.
The enrolment will probably
equal that Of last year, which was
772. Probably there are not as
many people in Triton as there
were one year ago, but the subur-
ban attendance is larger.
