Washington and the patriotic services
of Jews during the Revolutionary War
were discussed last night by Rabbi
Abram Simon and Senator Clarence C.

Clergymen of all denominations were
present at the Inauguration OF the flrst

of the liberal tendencies Of Washington,
who attended religious services Of all
faiths.
Dr. Simon quoted q letter written by
Washington to the Newport Congrega-
ton IN answer to their congratulations
on his election. He read in part: May
the children Of Abraham, who dwell in
this land, continue to merit and enjoy
the good will Of the other inhabitants,
while every one shall sit in safety under
his own vine and fig tree. and there
shall be none to make him afraid"
There were no Tories among the
American Jews during the Revolution,
DR.. Simon asserted.
Washington made no distinction ac-
cording to religion, Senator Dill told
the brotherhood, and compared him
with Lincoln in the liberality Of his
views. He said the story Of the cherry
tree, whether based on facts or not.

those who left at the sight Of the
flames, found their return to the
theater later barred by firemen and
some Of them therefore were obliged to
go home without their wraps.
Origin Is Investigated.
An investigation today sought to de-
termine definitely the cause Of the fire.
The theater management explained that
one of the piano lamps used in Miss
fuckers act caught fire and in turn set
fire to the cycloramic curtain which
provided the background for Miss
fuckers performance. Doors and sky
lights backstage were opened, provid-
ing a draft that increased the spread
of the flames.
