San Francisco, Calif.—Ten thousand
people crowded the Civic Auditorium
here to listen to the farewell concert
of Alfred Hertz, conductor of the San
Francisco Symphony Orchestra. Hertz,
who had been famous as a conductor
in Europe and New York long before-
lie came to this city, has been the
leader of the San Francisco Symphony
for fifteen years and is credited with
having educated the San Francisco
public to an appreciation of good music.
New York, N. Y.—Opposition to
Zionism is voiced in the diary of Ed
win K. Montagu, former British Sec
retary of State for India, whose widow
will publish the volume some time this
month, according to a preliminary re
port on the book forwarded to the
New York Times by its London corre
spondent. The diary deals principally
with India, with which country Mr.
Montagu was intimately acquainted
and which is now governed under an
act which he sponsored.
Mr. Montagu, who was a Jew, wrote
as follows after the issuance of the
Balfour Declaration: “The government
has dealt an irreparable blow at Jew
ish Britons, and they have endeavored
to set ui) ‘'i people which does not ex
ist. They have alarmed unnecessarily
the Mohammedan world, and in so far
as they are successful they will have
Germanized Palestine on the flank of
Egypt. It seems useless to conquer it.
Why we should intern Mahomet Ali
in India for pan-Mohammedanism
when we encourage pan-Judaism 1
cannot for the life of me understand.”
New York, N. Y.—A deplorable situ
ation obtains among the Jewish immi
grants in Cuba, the Hias Council of
Organizations was told by Fyodor
Walbe, head of the Jewish Center of
t uha. I housands of East European
Jews are now on that island, Mr.
Walbe said, adding that their economic
condition is going from bad to worse
and will soon be intolerable if aid is
not forthcoming.
Newark, N. J.—A notable precedent
has been set by the local Board of
Education in granting permission to a
Talmud Torah to conduct its classes
in a public school building. The reli
gious school of the Tifereth Zion Con
gregation, Orthodox, is undergoing al
terations, and the officers applied to
the Board for permission to conduct
classes in a nearby school building for
one month.
Contrary to expectations, the request
entailed little discussion, several Board
members taking the view that if po
litical meetings are permitted in school
auditoriums, the request for use for
religious instruction was not out of
place. There is only one Jewish mem
ber of the Board, former Judge Ed
ward Schoen.
Baltimore.—Paul C. Wolman, Balti
more Jewish attorney, was elected na
tional commander-in-chief of the Vet
erans of Foreign Wars at the conclud
ing session of that organization's
thirty-first annual encampment. Mr.
Wolman was elected by acclamation.
In the contest for national chaplain,
Rabbi Emanuel J. Jack of Yonkers was
unanimously elected.
Mr. Wolman, who has been senior
vice-commander for three years, served
overseas with the 313th infantry. For
two years he was a member of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars National
Council of Administration, two years
a judge advocate general. As com
mander-in-chief he heads an organiza
tion of 150,000 men who have services
in all the wars of the United States
since the Civil War.
New York, N. Y.—Seven hundred
fifty thousand dollars was left to the
Hospital for Joint Diseases in the will
of the late Alfred N. Heinsheimer, and
$146,000 was contributed to the insti
tution by the Federation for the Sup
port of Jewish Philanthropic Societies,
it was stated in the hospital’s annual
report, just made public. Frederick
Brown, president of the hospital, es
tablished two orthopedic research fel
lowships of $2,400 each during the year
just past and donated funds for a spe
cial sociological study of cripples by
the Bureau of Jewish Social Research.
