Warsaw, Dec. 30...— The Jewish Deputy Schipper today took up with the War Ministry the case of Baruch Fuhrer, a Jewish chemist, who was arrested last July on the charge that someone fired from his. drug store on passing Polish soldiers .

According/ to the statement submitted by the deputy, Fuhrer was arrested on July 25 and released by a court martial the, next day. While he was under arrest it is alleged he was subjected to the most inhuman forms of torture. After being severely whipped, he was made to stand with his bare feet on hot coals a^id had a cross tatooed on his back with burning bayonets, and. long pins stuck under every one of his toenails. ' When he was freed, he found that all his medical stocks in his store had disappeared.

Should be iskei to Preach Against Ford W r i t e r Suggests Committee Confer with Pastors in Regard to Anti-Jewish Attacks The Jewish Press, Gentlemen: Why not adopt as a local effort of the Anti-Defamation campaign, the excellent suggestion of Dr. Stephen Wise, contained in his superb reply to Henry Ford, as reported in last week's issue of The Jewish Press? .' ' Your paper quotes him ae folfcmn: "In America it is not enougn for Christians to say that they have no part therein, that they place no credence in the charge. It is their business and above all in their Christian dfcror- , ches it is their dtrty to cry out against these hideous falsehoods uttered against a whole people."

Shocld Appear Before Committee It seesss to me that if a strong committee named to appear before the • steering committee of the Omaha Ministerial Union (to whom all business is first referred) and make the request that in all fairness to an un* justly maligned people, the ministers should name a certain Sunday on which, from his pulpit, each one of them shall make it a point to give the lie to the Ford calumny, the men of the doth, reputed to be leaders of broad vision and fair judgment, conld not do otherwise than grant the request.

Especially as the matter of religious prejudice is involved.

Thundered from every Protestant Christian pulpit in the city, Omaha Jewry may rest content that the local ground, at least, has been covered, so far as refuting the false charge of the Dearborn Independent are concerned.

The prospective newspaper space given to the ministers' sermons \vtmM be additional valuable publicity.

The committee should, of course, be prepared to famish the Tainistsre^'Wls^* qrate proof and arguments that the: Ford charges are . indeed without foundation.

Jews are bitterly resented by leaders of that race, some of whom regard such a program as an unwarranted interference and outrage. Particular notice is now being taken of the announcement that the Presbyterian Board of Home Missions has established in New 'York a Department of Jewish Evangelization, with an appropriation of $185,000, and that, under the leadership of Dr. John Stuart Conning, a campaign is progressing to proselytize the children of Israel. Some wrathful rabbis inveigh in strong terms against the movement, but Dr. Stephen S. Wise, one of the leading rabbis of New Yprk, looks upon .the Presbyterian effort at proselytism more as a challenge to restore Jews to their own faith than as a movement seriously to be feared. He is reported in the New York Times to have declared of his people that—

Thousands of men end women were unable to gain admission to the Synagogue where impressive funeral services were held for Col. Barry Cutler.

Col. Cutler's body had lain in Btate at the Temple for !a day and thousands had viewed it there. * Rabbi Samuel M. Gup gave the memorial address at the services at the Temple in t t e course of which he said: "We bemoan a terrible loss. Weep, we cannot, our hearts bleed from the weight of the load. Dwelling in the silence of our tortured souls is a gnawing grief beyond compare. In His wisdom and justice, the good God has called to the Academy on High His servant, a favored and favorite captain of the moral forces of humanfty, our friend and associate, our own beloved Harry Cutler.

His eyes are closed in lasting sleep, and his spirit has gone to join the greater number who have gone the way before him.

"Although cut down in the midsummer of life, the lamented deceased had crowded into J&at brief pilgrimage a record o£* achievement that few whose allotted time is threescore and ten equal or surpass. His days were not his own; they belonged to God, religion and mankind.

Wealth he pursued not but whatever share of earthly goods were his, he used as a trust to increase the measure of good and happiness in the world. His magnanimity knew no borders, and his munificence no sect.

And yet he was a warrior for definite principles, true as the North star, and of inviolable loyalties to his faith and to his people. His enemies respected him; his comrades loved him, and all admitted his singular worth.

"Our brother, we meurn thpe. We grieve_£or thy kin whom thou didst love and who loved thee, thou devoted husband, son and brother. Thy days on earth have been well spent.

Thy dwelling now is with thy Supreme Maker, who thou didst serve' so effectually, and who has called thee unto all eternity."

"Ten of thousands of them are not even Jews in name. They are for the most part a liability to the Jews.

We are not to be disturbed if some Presbyterians attempt to convert the Jews. I am concerned, however, with 'un-Jewishness' in New York. . - *.

Our business is not to argue with those who would convert us, but with the thousands, the tens of thousands, who are gelling their birthright for a mess of pottage. After we have •given our children keys to the wellstuffed deposit-vaults we cheat and rob them of their spiritual heritage. . . . We are in danger of becoming a bookless, Godless, Sabbathless people." . .—.

But the Rev. Dr. Rudolph Grosman is outspoken in, his condemnation of the plan to proselytize his fellow Hebrews. He holds up for ridicule the record of two associations formed in England for the conversion of Jews to Christianity, and he is quoted in the press as saying that in 1914 "these two organizations expended 45,000 pounds,, equal at that time to $225,000- of American money, and only succeeded, in converting twenty-five Jews. Think of it, §225,000 for twenty-five Jewish souls 1" Dr. Grossman is confident that— "The Jewish faith that has sur- Aid Sought for Jewish vived Egyptian Pharaohs, Russian ^Refugees from German Poland Czars and Spanish inquisitors for the last 5,000 years shall live on.

In a recently published book entitled "Talks with T. R.", John J. Leary, Jr, gives Theodore Roosevelt's opinion oj Henry Ford as follows: "Ford" said President Roosevelt, "i s a pretty good man for^making cheap automobiles. He makes a good cai for the money and in his sphere has done a very good work. But he won't stick to his sphere. He would instruci Cosmos.

"It would not be so bad if he knew anything about the matters outside of automobiles that he attempts tc manage and direct. He does not seem to have the faintest idea of such matters: He knows nothing of world politics yet he sets himself up, with the aid of an army of press agents as the man who must teach everybody. He has no conception of what we mean by Americanism and has an extreme ideo of the importance and power of his money. He is ignorant, yet because he has been so successful in motors. many, many persons, hardly as ignorant as himself, think him wise in all things, and allow him to influence their views.

"Henry, like Barnum, has been a great advertiser. I do not say his peace ship was an. advertising dodge— I will give him credtyf or being sincera there, but I won't say that he has not been given credit for a lot of philanthrophy that was merely good business.
