Marx. Treasurer, and Jacob M. Plaut, Benton S. Oppenheimer, Frank Rasching and E. J.

Wohlgemuth, Directors. The new officers could do nothing that would give them greater popularity than procuring better street car facilities for their section of the city. A great many of readers of the ISRAELITE travel by the Avondale lines and know that the service rendered is the worst in the city. Those who are in a position to be informed will not hesitate to declare that the street railway service of Cincinnati, is by far interior to that of any other city in a western state. That of Chirago, St.

Louis, Cleveland, Detroit and many others is incomparably better. The citizens of these cities took the matter in hand and forced the companies to give them what they were entitled to. Why cannot our own citizens, through their representatives, do as much. Zionist Leaders in Cincinnati. Louis D.

Alfred Cohen presided as chairman of the meeting which developed a most interesting discussion. Rabbi Lefkowitz began by out that the Jews need no plead for their rights but by reason of the sacrifices which they have made for their native countries in Europe they have acquired the right, for first time. to make demands of the peace conference. The demands which the Jew might reasonably make of such conference are four. First: He should demand a rehabilitation of homes and property destroyed in the course of the military operations in Poland, Galicia, and Courland, and elsewhere.

Second: He should demand the abolition of the Pale of Settlement in Russia. Third: He should demand equality of rights under the in all nations. Fourth: All Jews should unite upon a demand for the right of free colonization and the security of person property In Palestine. The speaker urged the fourth demand as one upon which Zionist and anti-Zionist could unite. The use of the word 'Congress' was opposed as tending to hurt the cause in the eyes of the American public.

It was suggested that in the place of the word 'Congress' the assemblage be called The conclave should meet immediately and not wait until the conclusion of the war. should be made up in a democratic manner but no delegate should go pledged in advance to any program. It should meet in public, formulate its demands and then endeavor to crystalize the public sentiment of the world around such demands 80 that! when the terms of peace are discussed A powerful public opinion would force the granting of the demands made. The address was discussed by Messrs. Samuel Wolfsteln, Robert P.

Goldman, Ben Loth, David RosenWm. Ornstein and Alfred M. Cohen. WAS announced that on Sunday morning January 22, Rabbi Max Heller, of New Orleans, would address the open forum on subject of "What We Zionists Want."

In response to the cry for help from the millions of destitute and helpless Jews in the European war zones, Cincinnati Jewry has organized to do its share toward contributing to the proosed five million dollar fund. A campaign committee has just been formed for this purpose with head(Tel. Main 420). The following on are quarters at No, 208 Neave the officers: J.

Walter Frelberg, chairman; Morris F. Westhelmer, vice-chairman; Alfred M. Cohen. treasurer; R. W.

Mack, secretary and H. Gimberg, executive secretary. It 18 expected that Cincinnati and Southern Ohio will contribute not less than $100,000. The plans for the carrying out of the object of the organ-: ization are being formulated and will be made public at an early date. The amount asked for by the committee.

$100,000 too great ritory represented. Cities not larger or wealthier than Cincinnati and having even smaller Jewish communities have contributed as large an amount and there is every reason to believe that Cincinnati will not lag behind.

Through his working years, from young manhood to an older age than most men remain in harness, he controlled the business affairs and the editorial policies of that paper. He made it one of the greatest properties among newspapers as as a great paper from the news standpoint. Born Edward Levy, on December 28, 1833, oldest of a Jewish family of elght children of J. M. Levy, he assumed in 1875 the surname of his uncle, Lionel Lawson, and was Edward Levy-Lawson.
