Jews Told Inestimable Value of Community Center Building. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, today congratulated the Jews of Washington on having “brought to a successful consumma- tion the building of the Jewish Com- munity Center,” at Sixteenth and Q streets, the dedication of which next Sunday will open a five-day member- ship campalgn. “Buildings of this kind,” said the bishop in a letter to Isaac Gans, ‘are bound to prove of inestimable value in serving the high moral and ethical standards of our young people. In no period have they been more greatly needed than now. To furnish for our vouth a clean and wholesome en- vironment for their social activities is a contribution to their moral and spiritual development and enrich- ment.” Three hundred campaigners, who will take part in the membership drive, will meet tomorrow night at the Cairo Hotel. They will be ad- dressed by Dr. Phillip R. Goldstein of the Jewish Welfare Board, who will direct the campalgn. CRAVEN QUITS U. S.

Moral support for the countess has come from London in a m ge from Ralph Neale, her fiiance, who asked the women of America to support her “in her terrible ordeal.” Many prom- inent women have publicly protested the exclusion of the countess and ad- mittance of the earl as an example of the “double standard” in morals. The earl was permitted to enter the country when he answered “no” to the usual question of inspectors whether he had ever been convicted or admitted a crime involving moral tur- pitude. The countess the same question, answered The earl, questioned by an immigra- tion inspector at the Park avenue home of Bradley Martin, his uncle, made the same admission that the countess had. ‘The request for a war- rant was sought by Commissioner Curran on the basis of this report. Immigration officials have conceded that a simple denial on the earl's part would have freed him from the operation of the statute. Apparently he felt, however, that honor demanded he make an admission similar to the one made by the countess. The countess was divorced by the Earl of Catheart in 1921, the Earl of Craven being named co-respondent. She and the Earl of Craven then eloped to South Africa, but he later returned to his wife, who is now in New York with him. Statements were printed here today that one of the angles of the case is whether the opposition to the entry of the countess was deliberately court- ed for the publicity it would give her literary efforts. Edmund L. Baylies, attorney for the Earl of Craven, issued the following statement: “The Earl of Craven, in order to avoid unnecessary and undesirable publicity has, on his own accord, left the United States for Canada.” | Mr. Baylies declined to make further comment. EARL FIRMLY SILENT. Refuses to Grant Audience to Report- ers in Montreal. MONTREAL, Province of Quebec, February 15 (#).—The Barl of Craven was staying at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Montreal, today.

By the Assaciated Press. ROME, February 15.—The new im- perial city of Rome, which Mussolini’s maglc wand has commanded to come into being within flve years, may bring into an artistically #ded world architectural innovations so startling and revolutionary that, compared to them, the most daring skyscraper of New York will seem old-fashioned, This is the present determination of the vanguard of Fascist architects and artists, which is furnishing the bone of contention in the mo#t spirited es- thetic controversy which has racked Italy since the glorious days of the renaissance. The new Rome must be a continua- tion of medieval Christian and anclent Rome—calm, dignified and balanced— say the traditionists, who are support- ed by Armando Braseiani, the most prominent “academic’ architect in the nation. On the other hand, F. T. Mari- netti, father of futurism, storms: A Mussolini Imprint. “We want Rome to have a Musso. linl imprint; that Is to say cist futurism—never an archeological im- print. “Mussolinl wants to liberate all the monuments of the past from unworthy structures which now hide them, hy- glenizing the center of Rome and fre ing it for ever-increasing traflic. This absolutely rules out any of the old kinds of architecture."” “Rome, capital of the new empire,” Settimelli, editor of Imperio, her architect and will have waits the glant who will put a st face on the capital of capi- The same writer goes inw & rhap- sody about the new architactore, which, he says, will “soon rr V' {. self,” but he does not define Its nature beyond the statement that it_will not be an imitation of Michelangelo, but “will surpass him.” Other artists point out that the new American type of architecturs is tn no way suitable for Rome, but they com. mend the general directions of Ameri- 'an construction as compared with that of European builders. “But ours,” said one representative of fascism, “will make the skyline of New York seem a merely startling conception, a commonplace with no real {nfusion of the truly esthetic Into what is undoubtedly a great archi- tectural gesture.” —_— Going to Tokio for Study Course.
