2 (P)-Israel Zangwill, perhaps the greatest contemporaneous commentator Jewish life, playwright and man of letters, is dead. He was 62 years old. His literary reputation was won in 1892 novel, "The Children of the Ghetto." Mr. Zangwill was an ardent Zion1st and founded the International Jewish Territorial Organization. He visited the United States in 1904, 1908 and 1923.

During his latest visit he evoked much controversy over the political status of Zionism. He said that any movement to make the Zionist question a political one was hopeless. During the World War he urged the formation of a Jewish Foreign Legion to fight against the Central Powers. Becomes Journalist. Zangwill was born in London, Feb.

14, 1864, son of a Russian refugee. His early school days were spent at Plymouth and Bristol. After graduation he became a teacher, but left that profession for journalism. He founded and edited the literary journal Ariel and the London Puck. Many years before the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Palestine, Zangwill had endeavored to arrange settlements abroad for his race, suffering in Russia from the persecution of the Czarist regime.

In 1905 at the Zionist Congress held at Basel, Switzerland, he urged acceptance of the British proposal for a settlement of the Jewish situation in British East Africa. A plan to settle Jewish families in Galveston, Texas, was advocated by Zangwill, and he also suggested Mesopotamia as a homeland for the Jews. Zangwill was an early champion of woman suffrage. In 1903 he married Edith Ayrton, daughter of Prof. W.

Traffic Avoids Jamaica Ave. Jam Takes in Willoughby and Metropolitan Aves. to Hillside Ave. Trolleys Easier to Pass. By KENNETH YOUEL.

The search for new routes for traffic through Brooklyn and Queens to Long Island has brought another suggestion by which Jamaica ave. congestion may be avoided. From Boro Hall go to Fort Greene Park, either out Willoughby making a left turn on Raymond to Myrtle around the park back on Cumberland to Willoughby or out DeKalb turning left to Willoughby ave. on Carlton avenue. Follow Willoughby ave.

to Broadway and Bushwick turning left on Bushwick ave. for about one block to Troutman st. Turn right on Troutman st. and follow it to Metropolitan ave. Follow Metropolitan ave.

to Hillside ave. or Jamaica ave. One of Shortest Routes. This is one of the shortest and least congested routes to Jamaica. It not only avoids delays caused by traffic lights on Bushwick but is free of Jamaica slowmoving traffle.

When Myrtle ave. is repaced in downtown Brooklyn it will be possible to use from Boro Hall to the east boundary of Fort Greene Park. Willoughby from the park to Broadway, 19 not congested. The only traffic light delay possible is at the intersection of Bedford ave. Troutman st.

is used as a play street during school hours, which may cause a short detour later in the year. At present there will be no delays. It's pavement 19 comparatively smooth, and there are few crossAlso, Troutman st. has no streets. car tracka and it takes only few minutes to travel from Bushwick ave.

to Metropolitan ave. Trolleys Easy to Pass. Metropolitan ave. is in good condition and has always been an important artery for through traffle. Although it has a trolley line, parking in well regulated and the trolley cars are easy to pass.

This out as far as 80th st. From 80th st. out the paving is narrow, although It will be paved for Its full width as soon as the sewers are completed. To help the situation, Queens Highway Maintenance Engineer Shepherd has promised to keep the dirt edges of this avenue smooth enough to allow motorears to pass trolleys on the right. At present it is impossible to do so.
