CALLON ENGLAND FORAD TOJEWS American Hebrew Congress Backs Zangwill in Asking Fair Treatment for Race. | By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 17.—Israel Zangwill, Jewish author and playwright, who was censured by prominent Jews for his criticlsm of conditions in Pales- tine and for his attitude toward Zion- 1sm, last night won a victory before the American Jewish Congress when his resolution calling upon Great Britain to | remedy the conditions of all Jews under its jurisdiction was adopted.. i The resolution demanded an end to, the delay in a projected loan to_develop Palestine, and also asked the Arabs to meet the Jews in Palestine in a frater- mal spirit. Although it did not embody all the recommendations made by the Jewish leader, still it looked toward the fulfillment of some of the hopes for | which he has worked for vears. The resolution was adopted only after & bitter debate which lasted until after midnight. One of the sections adopted predicted that large sums of monev would be roured into Palestine by the Jews, both on a philanthropic basis and by the way of organized soclal and economic enter- | prises, as soon as it became clear that a Jewish national home would ulti- mately come into being in the Holy Land HUMPH?EYS RITES TODAY.

By the Associated Press. MANILA, October 17.—A joint ses- slon of the Philippine legislature yes- terday recelved Gov. Gen. Leonard Wood's message In respectful silence. Although interruptions and disturb- ances were anticipated, not one oc- curred. The galleries were packed. There was applause from some Quarters, among members of both houses, at the message's reference to the necessity for organization and military training for defense in case of possible emergencies. There was applause again when Gov. Gen. Wood stressed the necessity for malintain- ing a distant line of demarcation between the legisiative, executive and judicial branches of the government and of shaping all legislation so as to avoid conflict with the provisions of the Jones law. the organic act of the insular government. Representative Vicente Soto of Cebu: declared he would Introduce at today's session a declaration of in- dependence for the Philippines. He said he realizes this would border on sedition, but he thinks it will force the majority party to take definite action one way or another. From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

PHILADELPHIA, October 17.—No- vember 4 is to be observed by the 10,000 Presbyterian churches through- out the country as Temperance Sun- day. In preparation for this, Charles D. Scanlon of Pittsburgh, secretary, has prepared a program of special services for distribution to all Pres- byterian churches and Sunday schools. In a statement today, Dr. Scanlon reminded Presbyterians that the last general assembly recommended that members_ sign a total abstinence | pledge. Dr. Scanlon urged that temp- erance Sunday be made one of the greatest pledge-signing occasions in the history church. In_discussing the Bible and its at- titude toward wine, he statel that peopie have been confused by the translation from the original tongues. Referring to the quotatior “drink a; little wine for thy stomach’s sake, and to the miracle at the wedding feast in Cana, Dr. Scanlon said that the word | originaily used In the Scriptures| meant simply unfermented an unin- toxicating wine, or harmless juice of the grape. !
