UPBUILDING JEWISH HOME.
LAND DECLARED BY ZION-
ISTS TO BE THEIR PRI-
MARY DUTY.
Era of Education on Behalf of Zion-
ism Has Passed Over Into Period
of Construction Work in Palestine
and Movement Should be Reorgan-
ized to Meet New Epoch Beginning
with San Remo.
Recognizing that with the San Re-
mo decision whereby the Peace Con-
ference gave its official sanction to
the project to establish the Jewish
National Homeland in Palestine a
' new epoch in the movement began.
I The Zionist Organization of America
is preparing to concentrate on the
task of actually upbuilding the Home-
land. At a meeting of the National
Executive Committee of the National
Organization held on Sept. 29th and
30th it adopted minutes declaring
that its primary duty is to devote
every effort to this imperative ask
since the era of education on behalf of
Zionism has passed over into the per-
iod of constructive work in Palestine.
Below is the complete text of these
minutes which were drafted by a com-
mittee whose chairman was Dr. Ste-
phen S. Wise' and included Prof. Fe
lix Frankfurter Rabbi Abba Hillol
Silver Judge Hugo Pam and Morris
Rothenbcrg with President Mack ex
officio. These resolutions which were
adopted practically unanimously were
drafted by this committee which had
before it a comprehensive memoran-
dum on the subject prepared by Jus-
tice Louis D. Brandcis the honorary
president of both the International
Zionist Organization and the Zionist
Organization of America:
The Executive Committee of the
Zionist Organization of America as-
semuieu in new iur ocptviiiwri
and 30th 1920 after the fullest dis-
cussion of the reports submitted br
Justice Brandeis and his associates of
the American delegation to the Lon-
don Zionist Conference adopts the
following minutes:
The London Conference has mado
clear that a new epoch in Zionism b
gan with the San Remo decision anr
the appointment of the High Commis-
sioner of the British Government ir.
Palestine. The era of education on be-
half of Zionism has passed over into
the period of constructive work in
Palestine .Our primary duty in Ameri-
ca Is to devote effort of every kind
to the imperatively urgent tasks
which we face in the upbuilding of
the Jewish Homeland in Palestine.
In all our labors it is our most earn-
est desire to preserve the integrity of
the International Zionist Organiza-
tion and to continue to lend all co-
operation and participation that will
heighten its effectiveness in the ser-
vice of the Jewish Homeland in Pal-
estine. This organization will continue
its support of the International Zion-
ist Organization in such measure ai
shall be determined by the Zionist Or-
ganization of America or by its Na-
tional Executive.
Further it is our duty to proceed
at once to such an reorganization of
It the Zionist Organization of America
as will enable it to meet the condi-
tions that have arisen in Palestine.
All expenditures of the Organization
outside of Palestine must be reduced
to a minimum and In order that this
may be done it is necessary to simpli-
fy the work so as to make possible i'.s
concentration upon the one great
task. A commission of 6 or 7 on reor
ganization shall be appointed. Thii
commission shall be in continuous ses-
sion. It shall hear all who ought to
be or may wish to be heard. It shall
report to the National Executive at a
special meeting to be called within
30 days and prior to the submission of
the plan as it may be amended to
the annual convention.
With reference to the Keren Haye-
sod our judgment is that in as much
as no definite plans have been drawn
by the International Executive or its
representatives at this time a consid-
eration of the entire subject may tx-
postponed until complete data be at
hand. In the meantime we propose to
proceed with the specific tasks in Pal-
estine including the Palestinian Gov-
ernment Loan in most effective co-
operation with the International Zion-
ist Organization of which we are a
part. And to this end we ask for tho
full support of all American Jews.
A committee shall be appointed tJ
determine the immediate activities t
be undertaken in Palestine and to
consider the whole questions of tha
Keren Hayesod.
We suggest that the objectives in
the development of a Jewish Palestine
as outlined in a memorandum drawn
up by Justice Brandeis shall guide the
committee on reorganization and the
committee on Palestine work in their
deliberations.
And while it has become essential
for the Organization as such to con-
centrate its activities upon the enor-
mously difficult problem of upbuild-
ing Palestine it is the duty of all Jews
to continue their interest in and sup-
port of every rightful effort to amel-
iorate the lot of Jews in all lands.
ANOTHER ANTI-JEWISH LIE
RECTIFIED.
alas alas the trade fell through. Fin-
ally he struck the Jews; He Moses
knew they are stubborn and hard to
deal with but he concluded he would
try them. After the Jews examined
that stuff well they said: "You have
nothing in your book about our fath-
er Abraham? (You all know that was
several hundred years before Moses.)
How could he know? then they told
him how he Abraham told that lie
about his wife and about the offering
of Isaiah and the Dina story and a
few other stories such as selling Jo-
seph into slavery etc. etc. Well said
Moses you can not blame me for that!
How could I know! That again you
do not know that we are the chosen
people. Moses pressed to the wall
agreed to put in everything they said
and the bargain was made.
Warsaw: (By I. J. P. B.) The re-
port of Jewish sympathy for the Bol-
shevik) during the occupation by the
latter of the town of Novgorod Vol-
ynsk has proved untrue. As a matter
of fact not only was there no attempt
at any fraternizing with the Bolshe-
vik! among the Jews of the place but
the Jews arranged a solemn demon-
stration in honor of the Polish army
as it marched into the town. At the
head of the demonstration was the
rabbi of the town Gottlieb.
Now the Jews handled that stock
for over fourteen hundred years al-
ways trying to sell to somebody but
they could not and finally they the
Jews sold to the Gentile after all the
Christian religion is only a child of
the old Mosiac religion with some ad-
dition of ne wstock to the old one.
Fellow reader and my dear editor
let me stop right here as I am going
to write in next issue about Jesus and
his pack how they improved the of-
fering story of Isaiah the only be-
gotten son of Father Abraham and
did not save the son of God with one
of the lives of the thieves who were
handy and I assure you it will be in-
teresting. Yours for truth

MOSES AND HIS PACK.
When Moses wrote that code of
laws he went to the neighboring
countries trying to sell he came to
Egypt where he was known; showed
to them that stuff but they said we
are worshipping a red cow; well! said
Moses I will put in a red cow. And
he did but still the Egyptians refus-
ed. So he went to another country.
Yes! said the people! but we have
slavery in our code well I'll put sla-
very to please you: But somehow or
another they could not agree and Mo-
ses tried the next country. All right
they said but we have pollygamy;
Good! said Moses I'll give you polly-
gamy too; He that never was a ped-
dler a ye! a merchant will hardly un
derstand that! Still they found faults.
So Moses tried the next market hav -ing
all those good things added to
Moses still had a hard time to dis-
pose of it; The people who were bar-
gaining had in their code 'Tooth for
tooth Eye for eye;" poor poor Mos-
es! agreed even to that to get rid of
that pack of his puckle (in strictly
peddlers language). You know but
