pherc. The delegates. among whom
were many of the most prominent Jews
of the country. representing every com
munity. were still dazed by the recent
anti Semetic outbreaks and manifesto
tions i'm various cities.
The president. Eli BerkOwitz. opened
the Congress. MIR. Constantine Banu.

object fo the Congress to he the con-
siileratiOn of the law which the govern
ment intends to enact for the Orguni-
zation. functioning and powers of the
Jewish communities. The government
had submitted draft of the hill to the
Union and this draft was to he cOnsid-
cred and amended and then returned
ns the law which the Jews desire to
have enacted. it being the avowed wish
of the government in SO far as the re-
ligiOus communities of various faiths
are concerned. to have them organized
under Il uniform law. The various
faiths have thus been given an Oppor-
tunity to practically draft the law. SO
that they may serve their own inter-
ests best.
At the opening session. Minister Banu
delivered an important address on the
draft of the law. This question OF the
communities OF the various faiths pre-
sented two modes of action" he said
among other things. "One. to enact a
law dealing with the subject and then
enforce. it making all submit to it; an
other way was to confer and consult
with you because the question interests
you vitally, as well as the State. We
hive chosen the second mode of action
and l am happy to say that it has
proven successful

said. I'VE have solved it in the manner

Therefore you young men and womc
Keep up good and strong.

With reason and with sense

Always remember and never forget
To cling to hope. sweet hope,
And you will l'e happy yet.

 LITTLE POWERS
General Says Forces Are Greater Than lust
 Before War
NEW ARMIES ARE FORMED
Continent Is Split Into Nations Each Striving
 for Own Objects

LONDON, March 19.-"Sinn Fein'- "For ourselves alone"-has spread all over Europe, according to General Sir Frederick Maurice.
 Europe, instead of working in con- cert, is now split into nations each ! striving to achieve it's own purposes, General Maurice declared.
 "The armies of Europe in 1913, when more than one country was preparing for the World War which it foresaw numbered 3,5OO,OOO men, General Maurice said.
 "The armies of Europe today, four years after the war to end war; are 4,350 ,00O men.
 '"This is not due, as is often SUD- posed to the ambition of great powers.
 Great Britain has some 10000 more soldiers now than in 1913 but she has increased responsibilities in Constan- tinople, Palestine and the Rhine which far more than absorb these extra men.
 France and Italy, contrary to gen. eral supposition, reduced their armies last year.
 "The increase of armies is due to the springing up of new armies all over Europe.
 "None of the little Powers, which are increasing their armies, are bal ancing their budgets, and many of them are treading the high road to ruin.
 "Economic reasons will be one of ment; dislike the word-not disarma- ment: I dislikt the word-but limita- tion of ornaments, which is the only practical and only way out unless Eu- rope is to revert to chaos" General Maurice is strongly support ing the plan for limitation of arma- ments proposed by the International Assembly. This plan provides:
 That disarmament on land should apply to all land forces designed for defense against external attack; that the States should sign treaty pro- viding that if any were attacked the others would go to it's assistance, the power of ordering to be with the Coun- Gil of the League of Nations; that naval disarmament should follow the lines of the Washington treaty, and that the private manufacture of arma- ments should be curtailed. Strong pressure is being brought to bear by the International Assem- bly, to have one of the great European Powers call a conference to consider such plans for the prevention of fur ther catastrophe.

South AmbOy Convent
Ceremony Impressive

the fact that thirty years ago, as a
young priest, he had been present
at the dedication of st. Mary's new
school, and that he remembered how
some of the older priests and peo-
pie disapprovingly shook their heads
at what they considered too great an
undertaking and OVERRIDING of the
needs Of South Amboy. He was
proud to say that he had lived to
see the wisdom and foresight of that
great staunch character and defender
of Christian education, the Ri. Rev.
Msgr. Brady, indicated in so short
a time as to require double capacity
TO rthe pupils of the school, and he
was sure that the lesson taught
| would prevent any like u~nfavorable
criticisms of the spacious and now
more than ample convent provided
for the Sisters now, in charge of
the Rev. DIR. Griffin with q view,
however, to the next generation.
Then followed the ceremony OF
the laying of the corner stone, bless
ing of the foundation and the in
terror of the new convent which was
witnessed by thousands of enthusi-
| astic spectators. The band of the
! orphan boys from st. Michael's Or
phan Asylum of Hopewelr played
| with ability worthy of older must
clans, appropriate sacred melodies.
Never before, perhaps, has SO large

tended a religious ceremony in this
