JENRY CONVENTION REBUKES BRITAIN Baltimore Conclave Holds| ™ Palestine Policy “Betrayal o( Prpwses.” 1 By the Alw(ll!ed Press. BALTIMORE, October 27.—The firlfin ish government last night was criticized | for its “cruel betrayal” of the promises| made in the Balfour declaration as dele- ntal from all pnm of the United States | ther#d for the of the fitteenth lnnmhmvcnm of the nnl-?n of, R tinue for three days.: Messages of grrennz to the delegates. were read from Dr. Chaim Welzmann of London, who last weck resigned the presidency of the World Zionist Organi- | zation and the Jewish Agency: the | Jewish Agency in Palestine and Miz- rachi leaders in Germany. Declaring that “our race of people” | cannot yleld to the latest proposal | speakers called upon Jews of the world | to press forward with renewed vigor the work of rehabilitating the Holy | Land with full confidence that the “at- umpted repudiation” of Jewish rights immigration and settlement in Pales une will not be tolerated by the spirit of fair play of the British people. i Among the speakers were Rabbi| Meyer Berlin of Jerusalem, world leader | of the Mizrachi, who delivered his ad- dress in Yiddish; =Gedaliah Bublick, president of the Mizrachi in America, }l‘ndY Rabbi Wolf Gold of Brooklyn, SEEK TO AVERT PANIC. British Statement of Policy Causes Precautions in Palestine. JERUSALEM, October 27 (#)—The | Jewish Telegraphic Agency reports that | a conference of representatives of all| Jewish economic and financial institu- tions in Palestine, to take measures to avert a financial panic in the Jewish | community as a result of the new | British statement of policy, is being seriously considered by the executive of the Jewish uenc* A 'heartening effect has been created by messages to the executive from Felix M.

From the Front Row Reviews and News of Washington's Theaters. Ed Wynne Show * The Ultimate of Fan. ROBABLY the rarest event o( the season in the realm of nonsense’ and musical zye- and-ear entertainment came to town last night and opened at the Belasco 'rhe-tzr in the guise ‘of “Simple Simon,” boasting the serv- ices of that inde. fatigable clown, Ed Wynne. Mr. Wynne, whose brand of com- edy transgresses nigh to the sub- lime, k2pt his audience for three hours on the edge of hyla the expres- slon vdthln call of this neigh- borhood’s mem- Ed W ory. - 8o excellent in every way seemed this production, which last year was evoked by & Ziegfeldian wand, that one wonders how possibly the audience could have been so meager, and why the thun- derings of those present couldn't have prologued Mr. Wynne's witti- cisms for the rest of the night. This nezoqled gentleman, whose first syllable was the signal for an eve- ning’s laugh fest, although present in the flesh for a good three-quar- ters of the play, ncver once in- dulged in a tiresome remark, or did he other than surpass himself in his ludicrous shamblings. What was even more wonderful to contemplate with the midnight bell was the fact that Mr. Wynne’s humor was kept strictly within the limits of decency, never—except for one or two mfld excursions—touching upon the com- monplace verbal fleshpots of Broad- way. Foremost in a repertoire that he has built up to the boiling point was, of course, the tireless exhibi- tions of Wynnian inventions that he uced with rapid-fire insistency. The more glorious of these included a_doorless mnusetrl& a ereaseless nightgown and a pisno that per- formed literally on wheels. The lat- ter, upon which at one point was Shaw in splendid imitation of Helen Morgan, seemed easily the most satisfying “gadget” produced since the typewriting- corn-cob invention a few seasons 2go. Helpln¢ this royal clown through an evening in which he needed no help. was a cast of more than ade- quate performers—including Harriet Hoctor and a chorus of ladies whose comeliness was something really breathless. Miss Hoctor did some incredibly difficult steps with an rent ease that raises her to the it of all ballerinas. She was assisted by a group of rhythmic ladies whose grace was well nigh as magic 8s _her own. ‘There were other things and peo- p.- of nnu in tml Wynne extrava- lorementioned Wini “I'm Yours” and “Ten cenh L3 in the approved and Victor Radio § at Hugo Worch 1110 G St. N.W.

ARLINGTON COUNTY COURT HOUSBE, Va., October 27.—Rudolph O'Meara, 19 years old, of Cherrydale, is in Georgetown Hospital, Washington, with a bullet wound in the chest as the | |result of an alleged suicide attempt | last night the home of his fiancee, | | Miss Anna Crist, Chestnut street, Lvon‘ | Park.
