Max Morris Max Morris, the oldest member of the B'nai B'rith, celebrated bis seventy-fifth birthday Sunday, January 2, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Emil Ganz, 2960 Harris street.

Mr. Morris has been a member of the B'nai B'rith for the past fifty-two years.

Two years ago the local B'nai B'rith lodge presoBted Mr. Morris with a gavel in celebration of his fiftieth year as a B^iai B'rith member.

"The B'nai B'rith sends greetings to Brother Morris on his seventy-fifth birthday anniversary," ssid Joseph Greenberg, president of the B'nai B'rith. "We hope that he will be with us for many more years to coma. During his affiliation with the B'nai B'rith he has done considerable good -work."

JEWS LACK CO-OPERATION AT GENEVA, SAYS DR. MOTZKIN Paris. (J. C. B. Service.) Dr. Leon Motzkin, secretary of the committee of Jewish delegations, has returned from Geneva and declared that the Jews there were not entirely successful and failed to gam the Assembly's full interest in the subject of pogroms because they lacked cooperation. Believing that the League would not accept any direct communications from non-official organizations, the Jews came to Geneva late, part from that there were sa insufficient cumber of delegates and these few failed to cooperate "in & d r efforts. : -To avoM any possible misrepresentation, the Committee of Jewish delegations agreed to hand over to the League together with that of other non-democratic delegations, a memorandum from the Joint Distribution Committee. However, Dr. Motzkin declared their work was not altogether fruitless, the League having decided that all new states admitted into its membership must guarantee the rights of national minorities. It is the intention of the Committee of Jewish Delegations to continue its work and bring the matter of pogroms and other pressing Jewish problem* before the next session of the League.

New York, Jan. 6. (J. C. E.

Judge Eosalsky was adressing a delegation of th® Daughters of Jacob which had presented him with s new judical robe and in the course of his address, he said: "The anti-Semitism which, now pervades the world is an attack by the unthinking, but America has bees awakened t o i t s duty, and the great men of tWsxountry now realize that it is their duty to stem the tide, A man like Henry Ford is the greatest menace to American institution feecause he is an ignorant man, uses his wealth improperly, and because he is not inspired with the teachings and lessons of Americanis.

There are no special rules or-districts for the competing organizations and individuals. Tue whole Jewish community is your field.

We estimate that there are approximately 4,500 Jewish persons eligible f&p membership in the Zionist organization in the" City of Omaha.

We are out to enroll as many as we can get of this number at this time, but we have set • a minimum. . Therefore, there is but one condition attached to the above contest, and that is' that unless the total number of paid-up, memberships brought in during the thirty days of the drive by all organizations and individuals engaged in the work passes the seven hundred and fifty mark, no prize will be awarded. With, all the organizations and the individual members thereof engaged in the work, that number should be passed early in the contest.

Vienna^—Galician Jews who have lived in Hungary ever since they were driven out of their homes by the invasion of the Hungarians in 1914, have now been ordered to leave the country. The.police of Budapest issued an order directing all Galician Jews to quit the country in 35 days.

Jews who will not have left by then, will be interned in the horrible concentration camp of Sala-Ektreg, where many have already been im-

GALICIAN JEWS TO BE EXPELLED FROM HUNGARY

We learn, by way of the % Catholic Columbian, of a deserved rebuke administered to an anti-Jewish lecturer

by P. M. Callahan of Louisville, Ky., well known as one of the organizers of Knight of Columbus welfare activities.

The lecturer, havirig written Col. Callahan seeking a lecture date under K. of C.^auspices, received the following reply: "Referring to yvur letter of August 28, addressed to the Knights of Columbus, seeking ^m engagement to make an anti-Jewish address under their auspieces.

The waiter was chairman of the Commission on Religious Prejudices of the Knights of Columbus, giving three years of his life ^exclusively to this work and therefore could say a great deal on this subject in a reply to you, but my very best answer would be that of the late Rabbi Moses of our city, who when approached some years ago to engage in anti-Catholic

The Dearborn Independent, Henry Ford's weekly, continues its alarming articles upon the great, Jewish conspiracy to seize control of the world by the overthrow of all existing governments. In the current issue it makes the amazing disclosure of a Jewish boast that in twenty years the Hebrew race will operate all the dentists' offices, in the country In New York, says the Ford organ, 85 per cent of the dentists are Jews, and out of 1,503 "matriculates" in dentistry at "a certain university," 1,478 are said to be Jews.

The dastardly plot is obvious. When the Jews control the dentistry of the country they can pull the, teeth of all the Gentiles; the latter,, reduced to a diet of much and milk, will lack the virility to defend themselves and the Jews can then do as they please. The Independent also has discovered that the Jews are in a conspiracy with the newspapers of the country to spell Gentiles with a small "g." The danerous possibilities of this Machiavellian attack upon Gentle dignity need not to pointed out. The reader will note, however, that "The Post" refuses to be party to the scheme.—Chicago Post.

"Therefore, the Knights of Columbus and Catholics generally,., having been Hares for so long, we are certainly not going to become Hounds at this time in any form of persecution of the Jfews.

There has recenty been a renewed oatbreajrof anti-Jewish feeling in this country and in Europe. Henry Ford's paper, the Dearborn Independent, has given a good deal of space to antiJewish propaganda. — The Catholic Sentinel.

The increase we ask adds only 2 cents to • OUT present rate—one of the lowest m America—which would give us the same rate we »ceived,in'1915.

In 1915 we were receiving a rate of 8 cents, but in 1917, on figures based on 1915 costs, our rates were decreased.

The Gas Company, officially and "unofficially," made five increases during the paw year as follows: The general increase on each 1,000 cubic $eet used, j ' TTM» service charge*.

They pay no taxes. Their taxes were eliminated; ours were increased.

The pressure of the gas has been lowered*, giving the consumer less gas for his money* It takes the housewife longer to c°°k w j * gas than it used to because the heating ability has been decreased.

Our increase will add only SO cents a month to the average residential bill, which is mnca less than the increase made to the public ia any other commodity. r

Speaking of Service We stand, unafraid, to state that our service ranks with the best in the United States. This is a bold statement, but it also goes as a challenge. If letters of thanks are an indication, our customers are aware of our excellent, instant service. BVt it should be evident also that this good service cannot long continue unless we have enough revenue to keep our properties in good, serviceable condition.

The increase asked

We petitioned the city council for a maximum increase in rates of only 2 cents per kilowatt hour because we were compelled to do it. We had to either ask for the increase or permit our properties to "run down."

The income we are receiving is not enough to pay our manufacturing costs; to replace worn-out machinery, and to pay us a fair return on a fair value of our property. Less than 1 per cent has been received on the last . five million dollars spent by us in «z« •• tending our service to the people of Omaha.

•Continued satisfactory service in your home and the growth of Omaha' r demands that pur properties be kept in first class, tip-top condition.

/ I t cost us $7.73 a ton for coal. In 1916 a ton of the tame coalxiost $2.78. Freight alone on a ton of coal is now $2.96, which is more than the price of the coal plus the freight in 1915. Coal is the greatest item of our expenses.

More than $1,000,000, or about one-third of our total earnings, was spent for this one commodity.
