The tower was Inserted in a pre-Herodian wall which seems to go as far back as the Maccabees The wall incorporates an e v e n earlier wall which may go as far back as Nehemlah. It is believed that the wall may have been built when the Maccabees, under Jonathan Maccabaeus f o r t i tied the city.

The report states that the new discoveries vividly illustrate many passages of the books of Maccabees and of Josephus, including Javelin heads of the Greek type Forced Exile to Take Place used in the wars of the Selucids Over Period of against the Jews.

"Each year," Mr. Cohn said In assuming the chairmanship, "the task of the Jewish Philanthropies is increased. Each year we are faced with an added burden of responsibility. Rather than grumble over these d e m a n d s , we should be grateful that it is only money for which we are asked."

We should be glad to help them in the moment of their need." \ One hundred and four thousand five hundred dollars is being sought by this year's Philanthropies Campaign which is under the eneral chairmanship of Morris E.

The misery is increased "by the fact that able-bodied younger Jews emigrate into central Russia to seek work.
