Paris. (J.T.A.)—Upon an inquiry into the disquieting Paris press reports from Syria the French government is growing anxious regarding the situation but is determined to curb the agitation of the emmissaries of the Syria-Palestine committee from Egypt. The possibility was not excluded, it was said in the French Foreign office of making an outright political demand that the activity of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who is known to be involved in the appeals to the Lebanese and Syrians to revolt against the French, be checked. It is now learned that the French prevented the Mufti from accentuating last August's troubles in Palestine by. refusing him a. visa for Syria.

. Moscow. (J. T.A.)—An order to discontinue the excessive tax on artisans and also put an end to the confiscation of their property, tools and machinery when they are unable to meet the taxes was issued by the Soviet cabinet. The order established that even now many local Soviet officials are confiscating artisans' machinery, not only for unpaid taxes but for taxes that have not yet come due. This practice the Soviet cabinet has proclaimed to be illegal. The ruling gives instructions to tax .those traders who have become artisans for previous years but to maintain a milder tax policy for those artisans who work for government organizations. .

Daughters of Zion Consider Project to Aid Palestinians A definite decision in regard to the proposed undertaking by the Daughters of Zion to collect sufficient funds in a five-year period for the National Fund to install a water supply in a new settlement in Palestine will be reached at an important meeting of the organization Wednesday afternoon at the J. C. C Rabbi Abraham Bengis of the Conservative Synagogue will be the principal speaker Wednesday. Plans for a rummage sale to be held soon after Pesach will also be made definite at the meeting. Because of its importance, all members are especially urged to attend. The letter which the Keren KLayemeth sent from the Holy Land to its New York office and which the latter in turn forwarded to the local group is as follows: \J*We are in a position now to give you full particulars of the project which we propose be undertaken by the Omaha Daughters of Zion with the amount of $5,000 to be collected in five years, which they are contributing to the Fund. The project that we propose is the installation of a water supply in a new settlement near Rehovoth. The colony has not yet been given a name, but the settlers are a group known as the "Old Settlers Group". There are fifty families in this 'group, most of them with cildren. The ages of the settlers range from 35-45 years. "The area which we have allotted to the 'settlement is 600 dunams. In •view of the quality of the soil the

settlers will cultivate orange plantations which, of course, is the most successful culture in Palestine. Each family is receiving 12 dunams of land, 8 dunams of which will be for orange plantation and 4 dunams for house, vegetable, poultry, etc. "The system of cultivation will be intensive. That is to say that small areas of land 'will be utilized and irrigated. It is clear, therefore, that a sufficient supply of water is a vital necessity for the success of this colony. "The water installation hen; which we propose be the Daughters of Zion's gift is to consist of a well, machine house, motor, pump, pipes and a cistern. The whole installation will cost about L1600. This amount is greater than that being donated by the Daughters of Zion, but we and the settlers are pi-eparecl to meet the difference. The installation, of course, will be known as the gift of the Daughters of Zion of Omaha, and on its completion a plate will be erected on a suitable spot to record the gift. "We should be grateful if you would convey this proposal to the Daughters of Zion and intimate to us their agreement/'

Successful Season Expected by J- A7- F. The Council of the Jewish National Fund will meet next Tuesday evening at the J. C. C. All of the organizations have sent delegates, and due to the enthusiasm shown the group is looking forward to a most successful season.

COMMISSION FROM VATICAN FAVORING ALTERING PASSAGE Vienna. (J.T.A.')—The Bible Commission of the Vatican is ready to alter the passage in the Vulgate which speaks of a God of revenge, if the Jews of the world would officially apply for such a correction. Thi* was the tenient made by Cardinal Casquet to the Budapest Jewish Bible scholar, Donath. after the Catholic Bible Commission realized that Donath's interpretation of the passage was the correct one. However, Donath's efforts during1 the past half-year to induce Jewish religious leaders to take such an attitude have been without avail, due to obstacles which cannot be overcome, says a report in the "Neue Freie Pressc", as a result of which Donath began negotiations in leading Catholic and Protestant circles. Both Christian sects were ready tn help make the corrections in the Vulgate, for they felt that the rejection of the idea of a God of revenge would also relieve Christianity of criticism which has been directed against it, as-well as against JuAaism for containing this notion. As a condition for such revision they demand, however, that Donath should become baptized into Christianity which would have been R tragedy for science as well as for Donath personally, according to the "Neue Freie Presse''.

What Has Become of the / Seders of Our Yesterday? A Young American Jew Calls His Eliders to Account and Laments the Passing of Old-Time Fervor in the Holiday Ceremonials By BERNARD POSTAL

ALMOST PERSUADED Then Broun might use the story they tell of the great American lawyer, Kufus Choate. It is said that at one time some Jewish lawyer was associated with j Choate in a law suit. When the case was over, the two lawyers got together, facing ths problem how much to charge their client—or rather, how he would stand for. The Jewish lawyer suggested a certain amount. Choate suggested an amount in excess of that sum. Finally, Choate's opinion prevailed, and the client was billed for that sum. And sure enough, he paid without protest. "Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian," remarked the Jewish lawyer in Shakespearean fashion to Choate.

his raillery, to my no small annoyance if not my discomfort, until dinner was announced. "That I hoped would relieve me by giving a new-turn to the conversation but the company was hardly seated at a table when he renewed the assault with increased asperity and proceeded so far at last to ridicule the character, conduct and doctrines of the founder of our religion; Mr. Jefferson in the meantime smiling and nodding approval on Mr. Giles, while the rest of the company silently left me and my defense to our fate, until at length my friend, David Franks took up the argument on my side. • "Thinking this a fair opportunity for avoiding further conversation on the subject, I turned to Mr. Jefferson and said: "'Sir, this is a strange situation in which I find myself; in a country professing Christianity and at a table with Chrisitians, as I supposed, I find my religion and myself attacked with severe and almost irresistible wit and raillery, and not a person to aid in my defense, but my friend, Mr. Franks, who is himself a Jew,'"

is the flour to bake Matzah? 'And Schmeul did not answer. Instead, Jie brought home a jug of wine, a pot of goose grease, chickens. And his wife, •who shoukl have welcomed such food for the Passover, complained only, "but we will have.no Matzah!" It-was the night of the first Seder. And' in Schmeul's house there was no Matzoth! His wife and children wailed and moaned, but Schmeul was unmoved. . At last he donned his coat and prepared to go out.' Where are you going?" his wife demanded. "To" get Matzah," he replied. "I will step outside and shout, 'People, it is Passover and we have no Matzah!' There will not be one who will not come running, bringing us. Matzah. If I would shout, 'People, I have no wine' or 'I have no chickens,' no one would come. But who would leave a Jew without Matzah on the Passover?" John. Mills brushed his hand across Tus eyes. Had he b^en dreaming? But who would leave a Jew Without Matzah on the Passover?What diet he care for :his wealth, his position in the community? He would be the next mayor, some had said. Nothing mattered now. He was a Jew, without Matzah. Quickly, he retraced his steps and once more stood before the Sussman's door. When Aaron Suseman again answered his ring,, he said simply, "Mr. Sussman, I am-a Jew. Will you let me go without Matzah. A look of surprise followed/by understanding spread over Aaron Sussman's face. With a comradely gesture he reached up and took John Mil's arm. "Mama," heshouted, "another chair. We will have a guest at the Seder tonight!". (Copyright 1930 by the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.).
