Threatens Refugees In
Britain with Spanish
Execution Methods

London (JPS)--A letter pub
lished in Truth, January 4, and
signed Sphinx advises Ger
man-Jewish refugees to leave
England Immediately. "Or are
they, perhaps, waiting until the
English resort to the Spanish
methods of A. D. 1902" the
writer asks. To create no false
impression as to the identity of
the culprits, although Jews are
not mentioned by name, and to
leave no doubt as to what the
Spanish methods were, the writ
er recalls that "in A. D. 1900
those same people were, in Spain
massacred wholesale by the po-
pulace for their misdoings."
Truth is edited by Collin Brook,
one time Secretary to Lord Ro-
thermere. A former Mosely as
sociate is the deputy editor-in-
chief.

It was previously intended to
hold the Third Session in the
spring of 1916, but the Interim
Committee, at meeting held on
December 10, advanced the date,
in view of current developments
requiring review and action by
the entire body of the Confer
ence.
The Executive Committee,
which was authorized to fix a
definite date, finally decided to
convene the Third Session on
February II, and it is hoped that
all the delegates to the Confer
ence will make every effort to at
tend, despite the comparatively
short notice.
The acceleration of world ev-
ents, the fact that the peace con-
ference may be held about May
1, 1916, the appointment of the
Anglo-American Committee of
Inquiry on Palestine, bring the
decisions to be made by the Third
Session of the American Jewish
Conference into sharp focus.

ing statement came when he asked
if his hearers had ever thought of
extending the town limits, and he
suggested a picture of such extend

inevitable. "Also," Mr.. Marvel
stated, "the airplane is fast be-

as to who will get the bouquet. How

she writes, was taken last spring just
before a Sunday morning service. A
picture of the church also appeared
on the cover page of the United

ton. The church has insufficient seat
ing capacity to accommodate its 1000
members and for that reason holds
two services every Sunday morning.
