Zionist Congress Alderman Arthur Shutkin, who attended the Zionist Congress held in Vienna last August, delivered a report on his observations Wednesday evening, Oct. 28, at the Journal auditorium. The meeting was attended by about 200 local Zionists. Mr. Shutkin described very vividly the atmosphere of the congress.

It was not the joyous affair that other congresses have been, he stated. Thousands of police and militia patrolled the streets while black clad mobs ran through the streets shouting, "Death to the Jews." A gloom was cast over the gathering and the delegates settled down grimly to work. The speaker quoted at great length from the speech of Mr. Vladimir Ja-botinsky, who claims that no land was ever settled by a people who merely purchase the land and hope to acquire a majority in that fashion. Jabotinsky attacked the English government for not giving the Jews land which had been legally forfeited, and for not maintaining a large enough army in Palestine.

Mr. Shutkin pointed out that Dr. Weizmann had only accepted the presidency of the world organization upon assurances that he would be given a free hand to follow out his policies. The report was concluded by an attack on the Joint Distribution Committee for its endeavors to colonize a large number of Jews in the Crimean region. Mr Shutkin insisted that only 3,000 families could be; settled on the land in the next three' years.

The report was followed by a discussion in which the audience took part. FOR REAL SERVICE in Direct-Mail Advertising, Call on JACK'S LETTER SERVICE LOUIS ROOS, Owner Multigraphing, Addressing, Etc.

Deputy Rozmarin, vice-president Fof the Club of Jewish Deputies, conferred recently with the minister of justice, Zychlinski, concerning the Olshanski case. The minister declared that he had summoned from Lemberg the state attorney, Malina, and all the court acts of the Steiger trial. The "correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learns that an interpellation in the Polish sejm will be brought in concerning the Steiger trial and the revelations concerning Olshanski's confession that he threw the bomb at the Polish president. Several members of Polish parties signed the interpellation.

6, has had a career which has attracted wide interest, both in this country and abroad. Mr. De Gogorza's career really began when he was taken abroad for his schooling. De Gogorza sang in the Windsor Chapel choir. Upon his return to his native America, he studied under Modreati and Agramonte, and later he worked with Bourgeois, singing master of the Opera Comique.

After several successful tours in Europe, Mr. De Gogorza returned to the United States, where he quickly took his place as one of the leading baritones in the country. He has appeared in practically every leading city in the country. To De Gogorza belongs the credit of introducing the Spanish school to America through the songs of Maul-uel de Falla, Granados, Albeniz and others and there is a younger group GOGORZA which is composed of Espla, Salazar, Gerhard and Mompou. As one eminent New York critic said of De Gogorza's Spanish numbers, "A field in which De Gogorza is without a peer among, present day singers." A program of songs, refreshing in its deviation from the stereotyped Italian, German, French and English order offered regularly to eoncert-goers, will be sung by Emilio De Gogorza, baritone, next Friday, when he appears at the Pabst.

Mr. De Gogorza has sung here in concert before, each time evoking comment of the most pleasant kind for his full, clear tones, his ease and the general excellence of his singing. He is an artist who with equal charm Spanish folk songs, Brahms, and modern French and American numbers." Galli Curci on Nov. 4 Preceding Emilio De Gogorza on the Marion Andrews program is the world renowned diva, Amelita Galli-Curci, who will sing Friday evening, Nov. 4, at the Auditorium.
