terests, devoted himself to tn e
study of Hebrew.
While long source of strength
TO the Zionist Organization in his
community, Mr.. Kaufman has
sought by example and personal
influence to bring the Zionist spir-
it into the entire field of Jewish
affairs. AS a successful leader of
the United Jewish Appeal in
Washington, as member of the
governing boards of the Jewish
Institute of Religion, of which DIR.
Stephen S. Wise is the head, the
Joint Distribution Committee, the
Has, the Jewish Chautauqua So
ciety, the Washington Jewish Cen
ter and Zionist District, and many
other groups, he has sought to
have his cOIIabOratOrS come clos
er to the Zionist view, for he feels
that ZiOniSm has a lesson and
message for all Jewish life and or
CARNATIONS.
His extensive business interests
are in chains Of jewelry and furni-
ture stores throughout the United
States, and in other commercial
properties. BY reason of his pro-
gressive methods he has won con-
siderable influence in financial
and government circles.
In his Zionist work, Mr.. Kauf-
man has always stressed the ne
cessity of bringing the message of
Palestine to the American born
Jew, cOntending that while the
European Jew is a Zionist by
birth and environment, the Ameri-
can Jew must be made a Zionist
by education and organization. He
insists that there is room in the
Zionist movement for every Jew
worthy of the name and worthy
of our age-Old heritage.
DR.. Chain Weizmann, on his re-
cent visit to America, spent con-
siderable time with Mr.. Kaufman
in a discussion of the Zionist af-
fairs, and was the guest of Mr..
Kaufman at his home in Florida.

Biographical Note
On Ed. [. Kaufman
Newly Elected President of
the Zionist Organization
of America

Edmund 1. Kaufman of Wash
ingtOn, d. c., is an outstanding
figure in Jewish and Zionist af-
fairs and American business man.
In all his manifold activities for
Jewish interests over long per-
iOd of time, he has consistently
Stunned public credit, SO that on
ly those closely associated with
him know the wide extent of his
participation in Jewish affairs and
his deep understanding of Jewish
problems.
AS a child in Detroit, Michigan,
where he was born fifty three
years ago, Mr.. Kaufman found in
his parents an example of service
to the Jewish people and absorbed
from them a knowledge of the
Jewish question. One branch of
the family immigrated to the Uni
ted States as early as 1848, an
other in 1868. Yet in their long
years in this country and in spite
of their intense interest and ac-
tivity in American affairs, Mr..
Kaufman's forebears never broke
ties with the Jews of Europe and
educated their children to a sense
of responsibility to the ] evils h
people and Jewish needs.
The years 1916 and 1917 marked
a turning point in Mr.. Kaufman's
development as leading person
atty in Jewish affairs. In the for
mer year he became acquainted
with DIR. Stephen S. Wise and in
the latter with Mr.. Justice Louis
ID. Brandeis. From these eminent
Zionist figures, whose close friend
he has been from the first meet
ing with them, he learned of the
paramount importance of build
ing Palestine.
Mr.. Kaufman has carried his
Zionism into his business life
whenever possible. Coming in t o
daily contact with many of the
wealthy Jews in this country,
many of them unsympathetic and
even hostile to Zionism, he al
ways sought by personal effort
and example to bring the value of
Zionism h ome to all American
Jews. He fought actively to unite
the fund raising activities of the
American Jewish Community and
to give Zionist funds their just
share in the united appeals, al
ways seeking to impress other
Jews with the significance of Pal
estine for Jewish survival. Feel
ing that Zionism and Palestine
should enter the daily life of ev-
cry American Jew, he. as ma
ture man busted with a multiple
city of business and communal in

Bonus for States
Going Democratic
Adopted al Chicago
Compromise PIon Wins
After Bitter North-So
Fight in Committee
BY the Associated Press,


CHICAGO, July 12-The Demo-
cratic National Committee, after a
stif1 fight between Northern and
Southern States, today adopted a
compromise delegate bonus" plan
granting an additional delegate at
large to future national conventions
to each State casting a majority for
the party's presidential nominee.
Each State is now permitted four
delegates at large and two for each
congressional district.
The compromise plan, proposed by
the subcommittee headed by Senator
Green of Rhode Island and subject
TO approval by the Convention Com
mittee and the convention itself.
does not affect district delegate
representation.
IL won by voice vote over a sub
stltute suggested by Gov. E. D. Riv-
ers OF Georgia authorizing an addi-
tlonal three delegates at large from
each State going Democratic in a
presidential election, one delegate
from each congressional district
and one additional for each district
electlng a Democratic Congressman
or casting at least $4,000 votes for
the Democratic candidate.
This substitute was designed to
recompense the heavily Democratic
| southern States for loss of its veto
power in choosing presidential can
dldates through abolition of the two
thirds nominating rule.
Delegates Uncertain.
Delegates began moving into town
today-but as uncertain of their
ultimate destination as ships
crew whose captain has sealed orders
in his pocket.
Most of them predicted President
Roosevelt would take a third-term
nomination if it is handed to him.
These included Gov. E.D. Rivers of
Georgia and Senator Lucas of H.
linois.
But the group of Texans that has
backed Vice President Garner for
the presidency clung to their predic-.
tons that Mr.. Roosevelt would not
be candidate They pushed on to
decision to have Wright Morrow Of
Houston put Mr. Garner's name in
nomination.
