National News New York.—After a trial which en dured more than a month in the federal courts, before Judge John C. Knox, the jury during the "Matzo case" returned a verdict of disagreement. The jury' could reach no decision as to whether or not the Manishewitz and the Horo witz- Margareten Matzo companies had used trust methods in coining to he the most important elements in the matzo industry. (. harges of violating the Sherman anti trust law were brought against the two companies by Rabbi Moses Weinberger, Inc., matzo manufacturers, who demand ed $150,(XX) damages. Gustavas A. Rog ers, attorney for the plaintiff, attempted to prove that the defendants had pre vented dealers from handling his client’s matzos. Hyman J. Reit, attorney for the Manishewitz company, maintained that legitimate business methods had been used in building up the million-dollar matzo organization. During the trial, judge and jury sam pled the various brands of matzos. The jury was out over night, and returned with a verdict of non-agreement. * * * Chicago. — Ludwig Lewisohn’s new book. "The Last Days of Shylock", is the January selection of the Jewish Hook Club. This was announced by I)r. Ralph H. Goldman, president of the club, at its headquarters here. In this book, Mr. Lewisohn has taken up the story of the Merchant of Venice where Shakespeare left off, presenting Shylock as no blood less inquisitor, but a man embittered by injustice, rebellious against ancient wrongs. Other books selected by the Jewish Book Club for January substitution are: “The Case for the Jews," by Louis J. Gribetz; "A History of Jewish Litera ture,” by Dr. Meyer Waxrnan; "Bio graphical Sketches and Selected Poems," by the Rev. Samuel Marcus Gollancz, and "Mendel Marantz,” by David Freedman. * * * Warsaw.—In an authorized statement the Polish government denies that it ever entered into negotiations for the purchase of Portuguese Angola. The reports of such negotiations are characterized as “absolutely baseless”. Such reports, cir culated recently, suggested that the Jew ish emigration to the colony would be encouraged. The Polish government as serted that negotiations for Angola were never conducted or even proposed. * * ♦ Newark.—Jewish holidays like Chanu kah and Passover should be celebrated in the public schools, just as the latter cele brate Christmas, especially when a large number of the pupils in a particular pub lic school arc Jewish. This was the con tention of Rabbi Leon S. Lang, made during a lecture which he delivered at Temple Oheb Shalom. "In a country that necessarily is pre dominantly Christian," said Rabbi Lang, "we have reason to believe that if the public schools must reflect the Christian influence, at least there should he some effort made to cultivate also an appre ciation of the finer values and beautiful practices of other religions, especially of those which a large proportion of the pupils profess." * * * Boston.—Rabbi Samuel M. Blumen- field. of Chicago, national Avukar presi dent, in his report to the fifth Avukah convention being held here, stated that on? important achievement of Avukah was that of making the renaissance of the Hebrew language a vital factor on American campuses. The Hebrew lan guage, lie pointed out, has already been recognized as a regular subject in high schools and colleges in a number of cities throughout the country, including New York, St. Louis, Minneapolis, Seattle, Portland, Ore., and others, due to the efforts of Avukah. Dr. Mitchell Salem Fisher, of New York, chairman of the Administrative Committee, reported that ten new chap ters of Avukah have been formed this year, as far south as Texas and as far north as Winnipeg, Canada. George M. Hyman, of New York, national execu tive secretary, reporting on Prof. Albert Einstein’s recent radio address under the auspices of Avukah, stated that as a result of this address many letters have been received from Christian clergymen and others who wish to be more in formed on the Zionist movement and the activities of Avukah.
