ery story told against natural gas. The people of Omaha will not be fooled. They will vote on September 25 and bring to Omaha the greatest opportunity ever enjoyed by this city since the coming of the Union Pacific railroad. One would think from some of the misstatements that the 15,000,000 people now using natural gas are all fools. If any of these men who are spreading these false stories for their own selfish interests were to go to a natural gas city and start a campaign to take natural gas out of the city they would probably lynch them. In forming an opinion with regard to natural gas, the citizens of Omaha should carefully consider these important points: ; ;-ii. Natural gas will save the people of Omaha at least $500,000 annually inrlower gas bills. Every nome will be able to cut their gas bills 30 per cent Trith natural gas, without spending one penny. 2. There will be no increase in taxes if the gas bond issue is approved by the voters. The principal and interest of these bonds will be Ihet with revenue from the sale of the gas. 3. Omahans are assured of proper pressure and sufficient supply because our gas field is the largest in the world. The pipe line will be the largest ever laid. Advantage will be taken of all engineering improvements in the natural gas industry. "We have every guarantee that Omaha will have constant pressure and an uninterrupted supply of natural gas. 4. Natural gas is already proving of great benefit in developing Kansas City as an industrial center. With natural gas Omaha will have the same cheap fuel advantages as Kansas City. Natural gas will bring about the expansion of many Omaha industries and be an inducement to Others to locate here. This will mean more employment and prosperity for Omaha.

"NEW YEAR, 5689 By DR. F R E D E R I C K COH X,

Local. Individuals and Organizations Found to Have Done Distinguished Work in Almost Every Possible Field of Activity LEADERS NATIONALLY

PROMINENT

The glamour of national events has a tendency to diminish in our own eyes the importance and good of our own communal lifje; our nearsightedness blinds us to the beneficence of our local work- But all else dwindles into insignificance in comparison with the multiplicity and munificence of our energetic activities right in tiais city. In every line of endeavor, in every field of activity, in every direction of benevolence, the Jew of Omaha has contributed above his quota. Everything touched upon has flourished, every achievement outstanding. A realization of the large amount of work done can be.gleaned only through a resume of the year's events. Unfortunately, this must be merely a partial summary, as a complete review would cover unbelievable territory. '

Congratulations!F No tidings are more welcome than the arrival of the stork, that good-omened harbinger of joy.

We are indeed happy to have carried ihe announcements of so many births in our columns during the year- 5688^ and we extend our sincerest "Mazeltov" to these parents:

Holzman, who is an active participant in all of Omaha's} philanthropic projects, is president of the Jewish Welfare Federation. His work in that capacity has repeatedly shown the wiseness of the people's selection. Dr. Philip Sher, who has given liberally of his time and ability and has served on more committees than any other person in the group, is chairman of the executive committee. This committee was so successful, both individually and collectively; because of its members: A. 3B. Alpirn, Wm. Holzman, H. H. Lapidus, H. MaJashock, H. Monsky, j . J. Slosburg, Mrs. H. A. Wolf, J. L. Wolf, Dr. A. Greenberg, Abe" }ierzberg, Carl Katleman, Mrs. R. Kulakofsky, Harry Friedman, H. A. Wolf, S. Ravitz, Harry Silveraan, and Harry B. Zimman. During the year, Zimman was elected president pf the Associated Retailers of Omaha, an4 A. Herzberg treasurer. The health and hospital committee $id some extraordinarily fine work,, giving freely of their service to the. ~gQO.r gnd.needy. The doctors of this kroup are Drs. A.

Jerusalem (J. T. A.)—Plans for the Mosul pipe line have been completed, according to an announcement in "Al Carmel", Arab paper. The paper states that the engineering commission has completed the plans for the line which will run from Mosul to Haifa. Construction will be begun in February. The line is to pass through Alazrak and Beisan. The line will be constructed simultaneously from Mosul and Haifa, the junction being at Alazrak, where a large station will be built.

RUSSIAN JEWS NUMBER OVER TWO MILLIONS Moscow (J. T. A.)—The Jewish population in the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics numbers 2,600,945, according to the latest figures made public here. During the last thirty years, since 1897 when the last census was taken in Russia, the Jewish population has increased less than four percent. The growth of the general population during the same period was about 40 percent. The slight increase of the Jewish population is ascribed here to the fact that a great number of Russian. Jews have, during the period, emigrated to America and to Palestine. It is asserted that during the period 1897-1923 550,000 Jews left Russia for America, 18,000 for Palestine and 31,000 for various other countries. Those figures do not include the Jewish populations of Poland, Lithuania and the other states which were formerly part of the Russian Empire and are now independent republics.

Jewish Olympic Victors Welcomed in Hungary

Oranges Constitute Chief Export Item Prom Holy Land

Budapest (J. T. A.)—The homecoming of the Hungarian Jewish winners at the Olympic games was officially taken notice of by the government and municipal authorities and a hearty welcome was accorded them on arrival in the capital. Municipal cars and official carriages waited at the railway station to take the returning victors and their families to the banquet arranged in their honor. The former cabinet member Rakovsky, notorious anti-Semite, embraced Attila Petschauer, winner of the fencing team, at the Budapest depot in recognition of his achievement. Count Klebelsberg, Minister of Education, sent a telegram of thanks in the name of the fatherland to Doctor Mezoe, another Jewish champion. A hearty reception was also accorded to Barta, the only Jewish member of the Hungarian water polo team. The government newspapers, as well as the antiSemitic newspapers which are usually eager to point the Jewish origin or faith, of persons not in public favor, ignored the fact that the celebrated Olympic champions are Jews.

IMMIGRATION DECLINES

Berlin. (J. T. A.) — Rabbi Leo Baeck was appointed expert on Jewish matters in the German Foreign Office. He succeeds Prof. Moritz Sobernheim who has been appointed to a post in Naples, Italy.

Washington, D. C—(J. T. A.)—The process of economic readjustment in Palestine, following the crisis of 1925, continued during- 1927, according to the report of Oscar S. Heizer, United States Consul at Jerusalem, made public by the Department of Commerce. Important development during the past year, Mr. Heizer's report stated, included the introduction of new currency and the conclusion of loans for various lines of construction work. Activity increased among the exporting' industries but low purchasing- power tended to depress those producing for the local market. Building operations declined. Agricultural production was favorable and exports of oranges increased considerably. Work was started on the Jordan River Hydro-electric project. Immigration declined sharply. The orange crop, which constitutes the principal export item, totalled 2, 214,000 cases during 3 926-27, as compared with 1,515,0000 cases in 1925-6 and 2,146,500 cases in 1924-5. There has been a steady expansion of the area under orange cultivation, especially around Jaffa and a lax-ge increase in the exports is expected. The situation has necessitated the development of new markets for oranges and during' the year considerable progress was made in Germany, Denmark, Holland and Roumania. (Continued on Page 2-D)

Author of Report Declares That Despite Many Acute and Complicated Problems, 5688 Was a Fairly Normal Year By HARRY SCHNKIDEUMAX 4(ln Jewish traditions the first of the year is, more than a day of judgement, a period of cotemplation and review. On Rosh Hashsnah, the Jew takes stock of his personal position and devotes a greater measure of attention to a consideration of the position of his people and the world ' h e lives in. In determining the position of the world as 5688 passes into history, the Jew has a near approach, through a consideration of the events which, as a result of genera} conditions, filled the record of his particular group and race, scattered as it IF in all climes under all conditions. (In this article which is an excerpt of the annual review to appear in the. forthcoming edition of the American Jewish Yearbook, the writer, editor of the Yearbook, presents a carefully compiled and conservatively viewed picture of conditions and happenings which have affected the lives of the most important Jewish groups in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.

It was the trial of Sholom Schwartzbar.d for the assassination in May 1926 of Semion Petlura^ head."of the Short lived Ukrainian Republic. The trial was characterized by heated disputes between attorneys. The Ukrainian side, while admitting that pogroms, took place, contended that Petlura was not, except officially, responsible, and that Schwartzbard, in. killing Petlura had acted as an agent of the Bolsheviks. The efforts, on the, part of Schwartzbard's counsel to prove Petlura personally endowed £he pogroms, on the other hand, were bitterly.resented by the Ukrainians. • Contrary to expectations,- the trial lasted only a little, over three weeks. Schwartzbard was equitted. The Ukrainians press, both in the Ukraine and abroad, expressed profound dissatisfaction with the conduct of the case, taking bitter exception to Various comments of Henri Torres, counsel for Schwartzbard, and the verdict of the jury was received by that press •with extreme bitterness.

are,'technical schools, 4 teachers' seminaries and 3 are miscellaneous institutions. It is interesting in this connection to note that for the year 1926-27, / the governments granted.-aid for the Jewish schools maintained by the Zionist Organization wfes'£14,870, almost double the grant iii' 4325-26 and almost seven times as'.much as was granted in 19242^,'lor the year 1927-28 the sum of" "£19,603 has been alloted by this-government for this purpose. -.^During 1927 the work of the existing departments of the Hebrew University has been continued and preparations were undertaken for the establishment of new. institutes, and for the erection of several new buildixjgs. It should be noted here that efr^y in 1928, the Board of Governors', of the University decided to

introduce under-graduate studies leading to the baccalaureate degree. The Jewish National and University library had on the first of December 1927, a total of 173,000 volumes (137,000 works). Of this number 57,000 books were Hehraica and Judaica. The increase in the library during the year was approximatelj 36,000 volumes. The promulgation of the Religious Communities Organization Ordinance in 1926 was followed in 1927 by the publication of draft regulations for the organization of the Jewish community. Those regulations provide :for three bodies representative of the Jewish community: 1) Rabbinical Council, 2) the Elected Assembly, and 3) the General Council, these are empowered in their several spheres to conduct the internal affairs of the community, and to levy taxes on its members for education.

poor relief, care of the sick, and other communal services. Steps, are now being taken by the existing National Council for the election of the first Elective Assembly' in accordance with the regulations. Contributions to' the Palestine Foundation- Fend during the year ending Septembei 1927 reached the total of £883,616. The Jewish National Fund receipts during 1926-27 totalled $220,000. UNITED STATES In the United States there were but few incidents to divert the Jew ish community from attention to. Internal problems. The only serious reminders that there existn in this country a certain measure of antiJewish feeling were the haxing of three Jewish physicians in a public hospital in New York City by th«:ir non-Jewish colleagues and the action of the board of governors of the golf club in Milwaukee in asking eight .if the Jewish charter members to, rftsign, apparently in order to reduce the number of Jews in the club. There was also the case,of the Metro politan Masons Country Club, which according to reliable witnesses, de-

clined to admit Jews to membership and which changed its name when the Jewish Tribune supported by a number of leading masons, protested against the use of the word "mason*-" in its designation. Aside from these incidents there was much excitement in Jewish circles regarding the production of the motion picture, "The King of Kings." It was charged that parts of this were not only inaccu rate but also so presented as to amuse or intensify anti-Jewish feeling. The producers of the picture firmly declined to withdraw it because of the large investment involved, but, heeding the protests of the I. O. B. B. and other organiwitior.s, made a number of minor changes which, however, did not givt* universal satisfaction. Despite these incidents, relations between Jews and non-Jews in this country were very amicable during the year of 5688. The movement which was begun several years ago by the Federal Council of the Churche* of Christ in America to promote good-will between Jew* and Christians, was continued. On the other hand, the attempt to cohvert Jews to Christianity was condemned

at a meeting of the Horn* Missions Council of the Federal Council held in Cleveland in January. In Jewish -communal life, probably the most interesting event of domestic concern wan the preparation by the statistical department of the American Jewish Committee of an enumeration of the Jewish congregations in the country, and an inquiry by the same agency into the number of Jews in the United States. As a result there is now available interesting data on these two important subjects. During the year also the Bureau of Jewish Social Research published two reports based on data being gathered by it for the Greater New York Survey Committee; one of these reports deals with the movement of Jewish population within th«; city, and the other with the death rate and causese of death among Jews. Other communal events having to do with domestic affairs-were the granting of a. charter to the Yeshiv&h College of America, authorising it In award baccalaureate degrees in the arts and sciences; the consolidation of Temples Emanu-El and Beth El !" New York City; the dissolution after

MARKS BAHERY AND SffiE FIRM FEATURES EXPffiT AUTO SERVICE t h e "Marks Battery and Tire company, -with sales and service station located at 815 North 18th Street, is one of jthe fast-growing JewiBh firms in Omaha. When they started in March, .1927, the proprietors, Harry Marks and Sam Vorzimer, had only «ne..helper; yet, they have progressed so-..papidly in the last year and a half that today they have five experts aiding them.%• The officials of the company have just recently- added a new department —fender, radiator, and body repair, •with an absolute guarantee on radiators cleaned. This expansion is due to increased patronage, and the owners loook forward to a banner year, especially as each department has factory-trained men. The company offers road service to outoists anywhere at any time. Also among other advantages offered are free battery, tire, and brake service. They carry standard merchandise, such as Goodrich SUvertown Tires, Exide Batteries, and John-Manville Brake Lining. '. In giving: free brake-testing service, the company employs the best device to' be had. The Jumbo scientific braketesting machine tells exactly how the brakes are operating and in what condition they are. The number of auto accidents would be considerably diminished if brakes were tested and adjusted regularly. ^ One of their outstanding features is that you can bring your radio or outomobile battery in the morning and get i t back fully charged that same evening. The owners of the Marks Battery and Tire company earnestly solicit the l>a&ronage .of the community. Their increased "business and excellent service are a,testimonial in their favor, and a trial is all they ask. Charge accounts can be opened upon request.

But the diplomacy was well enough —indeed,, it was the only thing available in the days when men travelled on donkey and on horse, and it required a month for a letter to go from Paris to Berlin. We are living in a different age today. We have overhauled the machinery of our commerce, of our industry—of the machinery of government, but the ancient, and;, essentially demeaning Jewish diplomacy that fits in well is the period when the Jew was forced to wear a yellow hat still holds the boads of Jewish life. We are living, in an age, as pointed . out before, "when the Jew may influence through public opinion that invisible and yet bankable of good'Will. An age, when the right of the minorities of the various European peoples are no longer merely a matter of the government and • people concerned, but have been guaranteed- fby ;the League of Nations, and a bureau of the League of Nations has -been created to see to the enforcement-of these minority rights. -.

iFROM HERBERT HOOVER'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH , dedicated to tolerance, we still find outbreaks of intolerance. I come of Quaker stock. My ancestors were persecuted for tKeir beliefs. Here they sought and found religious freedom. By blood and conviction / stand for religious tolerance, both in act and .spirit.
