posals that the Central Conference of

lish Liberal synagOg in Palestine and

the Interpretation of Judaism accord
ing to the conceptions of American lib
eral Judaism We're made by Rabbi Louis
Wolsey, president of the Central Confer
ence of American Rabbis in his message
to the Conference which opened its
sessions here at Kenilworth Inn. Two
hundred and ninety four rabbis are
members of the Central Conference, ac-
cording to n report submitted.
Referring to the movement for a bet

recently established in Rome for the
promotion among Catholics of "A move
ment of love toward Gods people; the
N'lN VI Ah' t'NNlhl ''AllNli VI
Churches of Christ in America; also
to the recent appeal by Count Leon
Ostorog before the Anglo-PaleStine club
of London for friendly relations be
tween Jews and Moslems, Rabbi Wolsey
took and optimistic stand on the re-
suits of this movement. On the Oc-
casion of the holding of the Euchar-
istic Congress in Chicago, DIR. Wolsey
recommended that the Central Confer
ence of American Rabbis make an ap-
peal thru Cardinal Bonzano, the per-
sOnal representative of Pope Plus NJ,
TO the Congress, to the Catholic church
that it use Its friendly offices in the
course of alleviating the miseries of our
Jewish brethren in such countries as
Roumania, Hungary, Poland and Aus
tria where there lot is anything but
corroborative of the religions that
preach peace"
The slogan for Reform Judaism
should be "let us bring Judaism to
Jews" DIR. Wolsey declared. The presi-
dent in his message also attacked Zion
ism.
Officers of the Central Conference of
American Rabbis placed wreath on
the grave Of ZebulOn Il. Vance, North
Carolina statesman, for his champion
ing tolerance and defending the rights
of the Jewish people.

fer their campaigns until the Fall have

mittancc we are receiving daily from

have in hand the $5OOO,OOO which it
was estimated would be required for

effort of this nature. That they have

"The attainment of this great total,r
says Mr.. Brown in another part of his
report, "has been made possible only
because of the loyalty and enthusiasm
of the hundreds of chairmen and sew

subscribers in every part of the United

the history of America has there been
such an outpouring of service by Jewish
men and women in a humanitarian
cause.

RE-ENTRY PERMIT
SYSTEM FOR ALIENS
is CHANGED

Washington, d. c. O. T. A)-A
new system of issuing permits has been
evolved by the Bureau of Immigration,
Department of Labor, which, according
to n statement of the Bureau, has for
its purpose the elimination of fraud in
the re-entry into the United States of
resident aliens travelling abroad.
The alien will be required to apply
in person for Identification, at an i'm
migration office, instead of having the
permit mailed to him on request, as has
been the practice. Steps will also be
taken to make the permit certificates
less amenable to forgery.

1st. Mr. Brown states that the com
munitics which since last September
have organized and carried through TO
success local campaigns for this fund,
number 1.132. and that 100 campaigns
will be held in the fall, making Il total
of 1,2i1 campaigns by the Jewish citi-
zens of that number of cities, towns and

Decide to Raise Quotas
"The original sum which the Phila-
delphia conference last September de
cided must be raised. as minimum for
the relief of the stricken Jewries of
Europe, was S15.OOO,OO0, and the quota
committee. headed by Jacob NJ. Loeb,
of Chicago, made local allotments in
excess of that sum to the 1241 com
munities participating In the United
Jewish Campaign. However, it soon be-
came apparent. that the amount of
money that would he required TO re-
lieve the unparalleled distress. had been
largely underestimated. A decision to
raise the national quota to $4,000, 900
was quickly arrived at" Mr.. Brown
stated.
"Thls decision met with enthusiastic
response from all of the state and local
committees. Notwithstanding that it
called for corresponding increase of
local quotas. As consequence, almost
without exception, every community
has secured subscriptions fully cover

Compare these conditions, which ex-

Palestine Only Outlet
There remains only Palestine as an
outlet for Jewish migration. But Pal

and its capacity is limited both political

submitted by the Jewish labor party.

CROPPING

Since first stood upright and stared
Into the endless sweep of sky,
The cropping of his heart barred
In that unendng, haunting cry
Which shaped the burden of his song;
"AND WHAT AND WHAT is RIGHT OR
WRONG?
The hills took up the sad refrain
And swept its echoes down the years
Thru joy and grief, thru bliss and pain,
And binding mists of wrath and tears
Which rang its changes loud and long:
"AND WHAT. AND WHAT is RIGHT OR
WRONG?
The restless took up the cry
And swept it to thousand strands,
But only echo made reply
To its mportunae demands.
With time, its echo wakes strong:
WRONG?
The onward march of restless feet
Can drown that echoed plea,
While countless souls again repeat
Its haunting chant in every key
That swells in chorus from the throng:
land WHAT AND WHAT is RIGHT OR
WRONG?
thousand puny shrin,
From countless climes and ATTITUDES.
With thread-bare creeds That blast and kill
In hackneyed, futile platitudes
But still the burden of the song;

WRONG?
