WASHINGTON, NEED BUT §14000 FOR HEBREW HOME Committee Confident Needed Sum Will Be' Added to '$136,000 This Week. CHANCE TO AID OLD FOLKS ; Untiring Campaigners Hope to Announce Pledging of Whole Amount Next Saturday. The week's work of the campaign committee for a new Hebrew Home and Hospital- for the Aged resulted in contributions and pledges that swelled the total in the treasury to $136,000, leaving only $14,000 to be secured before actual work on the new institution can begin. Looking forward to the week at hand with much optimism, Mrs. Charles Goldsmith, chairman of the committee, expressed the belief last night that there are a sufficient num- ber of Hebrews in Washington who will seize the opportunity to deliver the old folks from their comparative discomforts to the new home of cheer- ful surroundinge. For several weeks this committee | has worked untiringly and the good : results so far are urging them on for another week. “We hope, Mrs. Goldsmith last night, able to announce next Saturday night that the required sum has been re- celved. We know the old folks at the M street home will rejoice as they never have before, but we also know. that thousands of their co- religionists in Washington will be equally happy.” The pledges received since those published in The Sunday Star of last weck are: Five-hundred-dollar pledges—Mr. and Mrs. Paul Himmelfarb, Louis Levy, George W. and William Levy: $250 ' pledges, Emile Rice, Sidney Strauss, Mr. and_Mrs. Julius Peyser; $200 pledges, 1.

The substitute sald to have objected that the pl was insufficlent, and through his activities brought the money lender's act-to the attention of the court. The money lender was said to have been convicted on a charge of conspiracy, and it was to free the money lender from serving his sentence that execu- tive clemency was asked. How such & transaction could be carried outi without collusion on the part of some officials of the govern- ment concerned, Was & question pro- pounded, and it was freely predicted that there would be far-reaching i Saks & Company Two Big Special Assortments of Boys’ Suits Boys’ Overcoats | ‘Boys’ Mackinaws These’ll go on sale Monday—and should have your very prompt attention, for they are all excep- tional values—and -exceptionally marked— At $5 95.
