C. B.).—Frequent calls for anti-Semitic literature arc made at the Now York public library and, according to the report for 1922, just issued, "anti-Semitism is finding a. place bciside the more usual and less controversial studies." References to the interest of non-. Jevvish readers in anti-Semitic literature are contained in the survey of the Jew¬ ish Division. After describing the val¬ uable accessions to the collection of the Hebrew lore, the report states: "Some years ago,. in an unpublished report of this division, a statement v "Sis^ made on the basis of constant observe- ""^ tion of those Jewish subjects whidi en- '" gage the attention of the general read¬ ing puiblic, that only Jewish readers de¬ voted their time to the consideration of Jewisli problems of the day, while the interest of lion-JevVish readers was mostly limited to the ancient Jewish , past in connection with biblical litera¬ ture and theology. The conclusion reached was.that,there was no "Jevvish problem" confronting gentile Americans, and .that there seemed to be in fact nothing in American social thought cor¬ responding to "Judenfrague," "question juive," and their Russian/ Polish,, Hun¬ garian and Roumanian equivalents. "Times, howeverj have since changed. Anti-Jewish literature is called for fre¬ quently, and anti-Semitism is finding ,a place beside the more usual and less controversial studies. "The new agitation- against the Jevvs ¦ seems to have originated several years ago with some British journalists.

Twenty-six Jewisli centers have a real estate value of $3,400,000, Mr. Glucks- man said, and added ithat approximately ?1,000,000 a year is spent by fhe Ameri¬ can Young Men's Hebrew and Kindred Associations for their activities. The membership in the ten leading associa¬ tions totals 50,000, he announced. Mr. Glucksman <lecried the efforts made in this country to foment racial animosity. The agencies engaged in this insidious propaganda do not understand and do not know America, he said. "They havo less than a primitive under¬ standing of her," he continued. "They would turn the hand of time back to the middle ages. Sincere as inany of them doubtess are, they aVe enemies of a better and more beautiful America. For what land can permanently prosper and grow spiritually, achieve peace and happiness for its citizens, which would force considerahle numbers of its people into a standardized mold, which would crush the spirit out of minority groups and try to force them to turn their backs on their treasured traditions, cultures and heritages. "The duty of good Americans, it seems td me, is determined by the tradi¬ tion of America, to work for harmony, unity and good will among her various groups, recognizing and that each has something to contribute to the upbuild¬ ing of the life and spirit of America. Who can gainsay but that America, young and vigorous and growing, will be increasingly and permanently en¬ riched by the preservation of the best in each of her groups?

"For the Jewish Center, be it Y. M. H. A„ Y. W. H. A., Hebrew Institute or Alliance, is not a mere narrow, sec¬ tarian enterprise., Firmly J'lewJsh and frankly Jewish, it is never segregative or separatistic, always aiming at a fuller adjustinent of the Jevvs to the Ameri¬ can environment. It is significant that it is an outgrowth and product of American life. It came h»to existence at first in numerous communities of America with little or no outside ajd or {Conlinnedonpagei.) of our existence? Our own happiness does depend upon our "viewpoint, and the world vvould ibe better and brighter if we all knew the meaning of loyalty. Jevvish loyalty means that ours must be ar love of comradeship, loyalty to the life which Sinai and its law command. Let this 'ioyalty be the paramount issue, just as IShabuoth is considered the decisive point. So the Sinai of this day offers ns the two divine gifts to do wisely. Wc can not be happy, if we do not lead pure and useful lives. To be a good citizen we niust store our minds full of true good Americanism. The soul is dyed by its thoughts. We can keep our minds pure, if through religious thought we can learn to possess the exaltation of a noble love, so tranquil that all will understand it. As to the" value of other things, men may differ, hut as to reli¬ gious truth there is no doubt. It is well worth any amount of thought and study. .So this message will reasonably bring to our confirmants the exalting peace that wherever religion is there is peace and light.—i?. Z. N.

"Like readers on most subjects, those interested in t!his topic generally confine themselves to the newer books in Eng¬ lish as they appear, and only rarely'is there a call for the older literature or for books in foreign languages. As may .be expected, Jews are sufficiently interested in this controversy to out¬ number non-Jewish readers. As be¬ tween the anti-Semitic writings and the Jewish apologetics, the former are de¬ cidedly more in demand, refutations seldom having the ipopular appeal that accusations have. "With reference to the readers of books in Yiddish, there is an ever-in¬ creasing call for translations of the world's best literature into that idiom. "While it is clear that, as acquisitions to the librar}', such translations are not of the same value as arc original works, the persistent demand therefor, because of their superior literary merit, compels consideratipn." STORES BLAMES JUNIOR OFFICIAL FOR WAILING WALL BAN JERUSALEM (J. T.

The deqree was is¬ sued by a junior official, Storrs told a delegation representing the Vaad Leumi and Jewish ra^Ws wJio visited Storrs to j)rotest against the order.

A message to our boys and 'girls, the message of Shabuoth, the closing sea¬ son of the Jewish religious school, a be¬ ginning in the life of the girl or boy to fit themselves into the pattern of life, to find the road to the world. The struggle was once ours, and so wc watch that struggle, breathless, intense, fascinated. Life is interesting; one finds tliere love, romance, mystery, selfishness, self-sac¬ rifice. All of us know there is a spirit¬ ual interpretation to life, an individual expression of God. Intuition, natural law, love is the real power of the soul. This power, if followed, vvill teach the higher laws, those of simplicity, faith, tranquillity and impersonal desire; then and only then can one reach the exalta¬ tion, the dignity of a noble life, a guid¬ ing influence ever present. ,

NEW YORK (J. C. B.).—Frequent calls for anti-Semitic literature arc made at the Now York public library and, according to the report for 1922, just issued, "anti-Semitism is finding a. place bciside the more usual and less controversial studies."
References to the interest of non-. Jevvish readers in anti-Semitic literature are contained in the survey of the Jew¬ ish Division. After describing the val¬ uable accessions to the collection of the Hebrew lore, the report states:
"Some years ago,. in an unpublished report of this division, a statement v "Sis^ made on the basis of constant observe- ""^ tion of those Jewish subjects whidi en- '" gage the attention of the general read¬ ing puiblic, that only Jewish readers de¬ voted their time to the consideration of Jewisli problems of the day, while the interest of lion-JevVish readers was mostly limited to the ancient Jewish , past in connection with biblical litera¬ ture and theology. The conclusion reached was.that,there was no "Jevvish problem" confronting gentile Americans, and .that there seemed to be in fact nothing in American social thought cor¬ responding to "Judenfrague," "question juive," and their Russian/ Polish,, Hun¬ garian and Roumanian equivalents.
"Times, howeverj have since changed. Anti-Jewish literature is called for fre¬ quently, and anti-Semitism is finding ,a place beside the more usual and less controversial studies.
"The new agitation- against the Jevvs ¦ seems to have originated several years ago with some British journalists. In this country the turning-point came after the conclusion of the war, ana was marked hy the appearance in English • of _ljie_ , so-called' '.Protseoi^^f the ''of ^ioift'' „«*^^p.|i time-
