New York (J. P. A.).-At a public
meeting held recently in Cooper Un-i(
n, a large number of Lithuanians in
this city adopted resolutions protest-ing
against Polish rule in Vilna and
the suppression of Lithuanians in the
Vilna district by the Leligowski admin-istration.
The resolution, copies of
which have been sent to President
Harding, Secretary of State Hughes
and other public officials, make specific
reference to Polish misrule in Vilna in
the following terms:
The Polish General, Zeligowski, in-vaded
and took possession of Vilna, the
ancient capital of Lithuania, and the
surrounding territory in the summer
of 1920, in violation of the Polish-
Lithuanian treaty, and is still in pos-session
regardless of the repeated rul-ings
of the Council of the League of
Nations and the affirmation of the
League itself that Vilna is Lithuanian
territory. Instead of complying with
these decisions of the Council of the
League of Nations, Polish authorities
at Vilna have imprisoned prominent
Lithuanians under their jurisdiction;
have closed all Lithuanian newspa-pers;
Polish armed po)lice attacked
Lithuanian high schools, placing the
teachers under arrest and violently
ejecting the students, kicking them,
striking them with their guns and fists,
injuring many, and the same police
forcibly ejected the children from the
Lithuanian orphanages, even driving
the children from private homes for
orphaned children; closed the Lith-uanian
banks, confiscating their con-tents;
closing the Lithuanian Trading
Company, an American corporation,
and perpetrated many outrages and
abuses, thus provoking a situation
which might lead to a repetition of
pogroms or wholesale murder."
HIAS INITIATES AMERICANIZA-TION
CAMPAIGN.
New York (J. P. A.).-The Hebrew
Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society
of America initiated its program for
the Americanization of Jewish immi-grants
with an address by Rabbi Dr.
Nathan Krass. Dr. Krass spoke of the
various types of immigrants coming
to this country and lauded the Jewish
immigrant as one that remains loyal to
the country he settles in and contin-ues
to carry on the traditions of the
Jewish people.
WILL ROTHSCHILDS HELP GER-MANY?
New York (J. P. A.).-According to
a special dispatch appearing in the
New York Times, the Rothschilds of
London have been approached in be-half
of the German government for a
loan of £100,000,000. Efforts on the
part of the New York Times repre-sentative
in London failed to elicit
from members of the Rothschild house
either confirmation or denial of the
report.
"LEARN TO SPEAK ENGLISH"
CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED.
New York (J. P. A.).-The Counci:
on Immigrant Education of New York
City composed of 150 organizations in-
Sterested in Americanization work

of the Council is "Learn to speal
English," and the first drive is being
made in the Italian section of the city
The Jewish Welfare Board, the Fed
eration of Jewish Charities and th

tions affiliated with the Council.
LIFE AS I SEE IT.
I'll be truthful about it. I don't se
why a beautiful woman needs an;
sense.-Louisville Courier-Journal.
Warsaw (J. T. A.).-The Canadian
government has opened an office here
that will examine the passports and
papers of emigrants desiring to go to
Canada and will inform the emigrants
whether the immigration officials in
Canada will admit them. This step was
taken so as to avoid a repetition of
the unfortunate experiences of some
emigrants, who after crossing the
ocean, were sent back because they did
not possess the necessary papers.
ZIONIST ANSWERS LUDEN-DORFF'S
ACCUSATIONS.
Berlin (J. T. A.).-The local "Vos-sische
Zeitung" prints an article by a
Zionist author, answering the accusa-tions
made against Jews by General
Ludendorff in his book, "War and Pol-itics."
The writer declares that the
arguments presented in Ludendorff's
book regarding the part played by
Jews in the World War and their de-mands
with regard to Palestine are
highly fantastic and without founda-tion.
LEMBERG COLLECTS TWO MIL-LION
MARKS FOR KEREN
HAYESOD.
Vienna (J. T. A.).-The visit of
the Tchortkover Rabbi to Lemberg on
behalf of the Keren Hayesod of Pal-estine
resulted in the collection of two
million mark for that fund.
80% OF JEWISH WORKINGMEN IN
WARSAW UNEMPLOYED.
Warsaw (J. T. A.).-The economic
crisis in Poland has hit especially hard
the Jewish workingmen in Warsaw,
80% of whom, it is estimated, are out
of employment. It is known that at
least four-fifths of the Jewish laborers
in the leather trade are idle; likewise
70% of workingmen in the spinning
and weaving industry, and 80% of the
Jewish cloakmakers. Conditions in
other fields are no brighter. The Jew-ish
co-operative stores are doing their
best to alleviate the suffering, but lim-ited
resources make their activities in-significant
as compared with the im-mensity
of the distress. It is feared
that unless the general economic situa-tion
in Poland improves appreciably,
the Jewish labor element, in the larger
towns especially, will be faced with
a very terrible crisis.
GOVERNMENT RECOGNIZES JEW-ISH
NATIONAL VERBAND.
Vienna (J. T. A.).-The Governor
of Klausenberg has sent a statement
to the Jewish press, declaring that the
Roumanian government has recognized
Sthe Jewish National Council of Sieden-
Sburgen as the legal representative of
the Jews of that province because it is
the organized expression of the major-ity
of its Jews.
200 CHALUZIM BARRED FROM
PALESTINE BECAUSE OF $3,200.
S Bucharest (J. T. A.).-200 Chalu-
, zim from Ukraine, prepared and ready
- to enter Palestine, are held up at
SGalatz, in Roumania, on account of
- the small sum of $3,200 which must
be paid to the Roumanian Government
for the 200 visas. Neither the Chalu-
Szim nor the Roumanian Zionist Or-
- ganization has the necessary funds at
Sits disposal. The London Zionist Ex-
Secutive was appealed to, but replied
that its present financial condition does
not permit it to satisfy the request.
The Roumanian Organization has
therefore initiated a campaign to raise
Sa half a million lei (which is $3,200),
y so that the Chaluzim may proceed on
their journey.
