Furthermore, the Jew can pride him
self in fact that he has always been
represented in the martial forces of the
United States by a larger proportion
than his numbers warranted. In the
late war statistics show that from the

four per cent of the population of the

time bad come.
1t is not only in military way that
the American jew has played his part.
In civil affairs he has always been well
represented.
Mark Twain, the grand man of Am
erican letters, pays remarkable trib-
ute to what he calls, THE Immortal
Race" Says Twain:
"If the statistics are right the Jews
constitute bur one per cent of the hu-
man race. Ii suggests a nebul0us dim
puff of star dust lost in the blaze of

He is as prominent on the planet as

Jews Of our day, q man of great
learning, of an integrity and
idealism that spurned all COM
promise, always sincere, he
devoted his life to the rsjuvena-
ton of his people. DR.. Syrkin
was . true son to the Jewish
nation, he suffered for his peo-
pie and with his people. His love
for his people cannot be describ-
ed. A dreamer he was and a
visionary but also a practical
builder who helped to build
to reconstruct the ruins of the
ancient Jewish history and to
plan for the Jewish nation a new
big, beautiful future. He dream
ed great dreams which passed on
to myriads of minds and hearts,
there to take root and ultimately
attain fruition.
The Jewish Congress, the So
cialist Zionist movement, the CO.
operative labor groups in Pal
estine-these are some of the
fruitful ideas with which he en-
riched Jewish life.
Fifty seven years ago the
world was honored by the birth
OF this great man. In 2 small
town in Russia, Aogelieff, his
education was begun. At an
early age he departed for Ger
many where he entered heart and
soul into the Zionist movement.
He also began there his literary
career writing in Russian, He
brew, Yiddish and German, In
1908 he was invited to edit the
Zionist Territoralist newspaper,
Das Folk, in New York, The
writer Of this article can proudly
say that he was one of the COM
mittee to arrange for DR.. Syr-
kin's arrival in the United States
and he always remained a true
friend.
DR.. Syrkin wrote for all the
Jewish journals and magazines
in New York. But suddenly,
gruesome death robbed us of
him and now that tongue is 81
lent, that pen moves no more.
The whole Jewish world
grieves over the passing of this
great man, who was stricken in
the prime of his life, and we feel
that it is Israels greatest loss.

nor Pinchot, of Pennsylvania, and
David Sarnoff, vice president of the
Radio Corporation of America.
Governor Pinchot hailed the devel-
opmant of super power as the begin
ming Of an economic revolution COM
parable to the Industrial revolution
which followed the introduction of
steam power into industry, and the
subsequent development of railroad
transportation.
Mr.. Sarnoff told Of country
linked from coast to coast by inter.
locking broadcasting stations of high
power from which smaller stations
would pick up programs to be re-
layed to listeners in every town and
hamlet. He declared against charg-
ing for the privilege of receiving
radio programs. saying the cost of
broadcasting should be charged
against the cost of doing business.
THE age of electricity may bring
about the decentralization of indus

chot declared. I'm this fact lies the
possibility of new freedom and en-
richment of individual life. No such
profound change in economic life
is possible without profound changes
in the law and government. 1t is
the part of craftsmanship by fore
sight to make these changes easy
instead of obstructing them by blind
conservatism"
Muscle Shoals is the key to the
industrial development of the south
eastern coastal plain, Governor Pin
chot declared, taking the opportun-
ity to speak out against Henry
Ford's offer for the Muscle Shoals
development rights.
ITO permit Henry Ford or any
other man or set of men to use the
power of Muscle Shoals mainly to
build a single industrial city would
amount to industrial and agricultural
suicide for the south" he declared.

DISPOSAL OF BODIES
IN ME:R ROUGE CASE
IS BRANDED ILLEGAL

NEW ORLEANS, May 21.-The
Morehouse parish kidnapping case,
dormant since last November, when
several members of the Ku Klux
Khan, including Captain j. K. Skip
with, exalted cyclops of the More
house khan, were convicted Of mis-
demeanCrs, leaped to the front today
with the publication of a letter from
DR.. Oscar Bowling, state health Off
GER, to Governor John NJ Parker,
charging that the law had been vio-
lated by the state and federal authori.
ties in relation to the disposition of
the bodies of Watt Daniel and T. f.
Richard. DR.. Dowlng's communica-
ton, under date of May Is, has been
turned over to the attorney generals
office. Governor Parker's term Of
office expired May 10.
Daniel and Richard, both of Mer
Rouge, were kidnapped by a band OF
hooded men on a highway near
Bastrop the afternoon of August "a
1922. Two mutilated bodies, later
identified as theirs, were found float.
ing in Lake Lafourche, 25 miles
from bastrop, the morning of Deem
Der %.
DR.. Bowling, in his letter to the
governor, charges that the parish
coroner was not permitted to hold an
inquest, adding that he was pre-
vented from doing so by a federal
department of justice agent and g
Louisiana national guard officer. AS
consequence the coroner did not
issue death certificates. This con
stituted one violation. Other viola
tons involved the sale of two baskets
and burial OF the bodies. The law
provides that before a casket can be
sold the business house handling the
transaction must have copy Of the
death certificate. A burial permit
also must be obtained.
