give only hundreds of dollars or less
to theological seminaries and other
institutions Of Jewish learning7
And not only in the fields of educa-
ton and charity do these rich men act
without sense Of proportion, but
they are found wanting also in the
field of the rehabilitation of the Jew
in his homeland. We are told that
more than 95 per cent Of the $l0,-
100000 thus far raised for Palestinian
institutions, came from the middle
class and the poor. Does this not in
dicate lack Of regard for the future
of the Jew, as well as lack of interest
in his past?
Can we, then, expect the heirs of
these rich Jews to be Jewish at all?
Do they do anything not to be too
far removed from Jewish thought,
from Jewish idealism? Do they so
much as read the greatest work of
literature in any language-the Bible,
or, for that matter, any Jewish book
or magazine of weighty thought and
information? Do they take interest
in the solution of any of the Jewish
problems, or even of those that af-
feet the welfare of their country, and
learn what are the institutions and
movements that make for the great
est good, for the longest period, for
the most human beings?
How can Jewry develop the proper
sense of proportion in Jewish life?
First of all, it must separate the work
of and for Jewish education from that
of so-calied philanthropy. Surely no
Jewish federation of philanthropy
would want to form a charity trust to
establish uniformity in the religious
life of community by gaining con-
troll of the purse strings. And no ade-
quate provision for the expansion of
religious and educational work can be
made so long as it is dependent upon
federation of charities.
No city has its department of edu-
cation connected with its department
of charities. Such connection would
lower the dignity of education and
make it unfruitful. Educational work
must be placed in the hands of those
sincerely Interested in its promotion.
Only they can cause education to be
more intensive in quality and more
extensive in scope and quantity. Only
they will secure the ampler funds
necessary for the organization, equip
ment and the proper manning of
sacred task. Only they will prevent
the appeal for education from being
drowned in the appeal for medical,
social, recreational, or other CHART
able relief.
A proud people of over 5000 years
standing should not be contented with
doling out charity! Philanthropy is
not the outstanding achievement of
Jewish history, and no people has a
monopOly over IL. our greatness uc-
pends upon our remaining the "Peo-
pie of the Book" the source of inspi
ration for the achievements of the
soul.
Our concern must ever be for the
future. AS the historian Graetz puts
it, "A people which disdained its pres
ent, hut has the eye steadily fixed on
its future, which lives as it were on
hope, is, on that very account, eter-
nal, like hope" Investment in educa-
ton is chiefly an investment in the
future. Keeping this in mind, we
shall regain our sense of proportion,
and again take our place as spiritual

No Chance for Ousted
Player, Judge Tells
San Franciscans.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 19.-CP,-
riseball Commissioner Lands, accom-.
panied by Mrs. Lands and his secre.
tary, Leslie O'Connor, arrived in SAD
Francisco today for a few days Of
rest and visiting with baseball ane
other friends. He will be the guest
of J. Cal Ewing, owner of the Oak
land club in the Pacific Coast League
while here.
Judge lands said upon his arrival
that he saw no chance for Jimmy
OConnell. former star outfielder OF
the New York Giants. to be reinstat.
ed. OConnell was suspended for at
tempting to bride a player on an OPP
posing team.
If i reinstate O'Connell / NUS

that would be a hard thing to ex-

.TONS|LS BECOMING
FACTOR IN BASEBALL

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-tP)-The
theory that healthy tonsils are essen
tial to successful ball playing seems
to be gaining ground.
Last year Connie Mack had several
of the stars of his Athletics undergo
operations for removal of their tOnsils
and credited it with being responsible
for their improvement. Now the Bos-
ton Braves and Red Sox have gone
even further and issued instructions
to their athletes to have their tonsi!s,
as well as their teeth, examined be-
fore reporting to spring training.
Officials of both the New York
Giants and Yankees, on the other
hand. attach no special importance to
the matter and say that their regular
contract requirements for players 10
report in good condition cover the
situation.
The theory OF clubs taking special
action, however, is that rheumatism,
sore arms and similar ailments have
their origin in diseased tonsils or in
fected teeth.

"Chuck Burns, young San Antonio

.FENCER IN HOSPITAL
PIERCED WITH BLADE

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-R)-Paul
Bencoe, expert fencer, is in Roose-
welt Hospital, suffering from wound
in his side caused when the blade OF
an opponents foil snapped during a
bout last night, and pierced him un-
der the right lung. His condition is
serious.
Bencoe. who is n member OF the
New York Athletic Club, was engaged
in the finals for the junior team
championship at the Fencers' Club.
His opponent was George Pardigon of
the Fencers' Club.
Spectators said that Bencoe had
lunged sharply. Pardigon parted the
thrust but his boil broke off short
and became so rigid that the jagged
end pierced Bencoe's side. Had not
the foil snapped it would have bent
easily and would not have caused "a
wound. Teammates ascribed the ac-
cident TO an imperfect blade.
The bouts were postponed indefi-
nitely.
Less than n year ago, William J.
Block, Of the Columbia fencing team.
was injured when his opponents foil
snapped as did Pardigon's. Block
was in the hospital some time with n
wound under his arm.

BRUINS LAND GOOD
PROSPECT In RANKIN

Foy Rankin, six-foot, 175-pound
pitcher, signed by Secretary Tom
Conner for trial with the Bears,
is a good prospect, in the opinion of
Sergeant Edwards, in the Fort Sam
Houston athletic office, who uncovered
Van Biber, soldier hurler, last sum
mer and sent him TO the Three-l
League. Edwards and Rankin grew
up together. Rankin's home is in Big
Springs. His nickname is Rubber"
in honor Of his "rubber" arm.
Rankin is a fast ball right-hander,
says Edwards, and made a strikeout
record among the semi-pros. He is
the nephew Of Mccoy, famous old
Texas Lacquer. He looks like a bet
ter prospect than Van Biber, Edwards
believes, because he has a better head
and is more experienced. In addi-
ton, he's a good hitter

The victors by an unwritten law

so years and the generosity Of q

rescued it after many kicks had

In those days the inflated pig
skin was unknown and in this

time to work out plays which
won the game.
