Noted Jewish Orator. Dr, Levin was a member of the first Russian Douma, and when that leg- islative assembly was closed by the Czar, he, with many of his colleagues, went to Viborg and signed the now famous Viborg petition, which re- sulted in the arrest or exile of all the daring and patriotic men who thus attempted to check the Czar’s abso- lutism. Dr. Levin went into exile, leaving his position as government rabbi at Wilna, and separating him- self from his family and all his con- nections there. Dr. Levin was one of the first modern day Zionists, and, by his remarkable oratorical power, coupled with his brilliancy of thought, he succeeded in making for himself an international reputation- Contributed to Leading Magazines. As a journalist, he has contributed to leading Russian and Jewish maga- zines, being at one time the editor of the “Jewish Volk,” in Wilna. Dr. Leévin came to this country shortly after having taken part in the fram- ing of the famous Viborg petition, and addressed one of the largest dem- onstration meetings ever held in New York. This meeting was held at the large Durland’s riding academy, and was presided over by Jacob H. Schiff, the New York banker. Dr. Levin interested Mr. Schiff and others in a plan to establish a technical school ifh Palestine. To this project he devoted six years of his life, visit- ing America several times in the inter- est of this institution. Three years ago. Dr. Levin was elected qne of the body of six, who lead the Zionist movement. The seat of this committee is Berlin. Dr. Levin has made extensive propaganda tours in Russia, Austria, England and America. He speaks fluently in either German, Russian, Hebrew or Yiddish. 2 Leads Jewish Congress Movement.. At present Dr, Levin is one of the tireless workers in the American Jew- ish congress movement. It is mainly through his influence that Louis D. Brandeis, Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Na- than Straus and other American in- fluentidl Hebrews have so enthusias- tically joined in the calling together of this congress. This congress of the entire Jewish population of the United States is being called for the main purpose of i discussing the acute Jewish problems ‘| that have arisen due to the war in H IN HIGH SCHOOL. ht in Business Course— s to Take Registration. ‘there was not a quorum | the scheduled meeting of 1 -board yesterday, those ‘ho were in attendance in- discussed the questions be- and decided to proceed fying them out, provided pther members of the board esce.

This gathering will choose a committee of representative He- jbrews of this country to present to the nations of the world at the. peace congress that will follow the termina- tion ‘of the war, the concerted demand of American Jawry that the Jews in all countries of Europe be given equal rights with all other citizens. It is hoped that such a demand com- ing from three millions of American Jews will receive due consideration from the great powers. Another de- mand will probably be made by this authorized American Jewish commit- tee at the peace congress, that all hindrance be eliminated for Jews in countries where they are on- pressed economically and politically to freely emigrate to the Orient gen- erally and TPalestine particularly where they should be given all free- dom to develop economically and cul- turally.. Some of the greatest states- i ment of Eurobe have recently made the assertion that should such a de- mand come from the Jewish people it will be favorably considered by their governments, Barondess a Recognized Leader.

The topics Se- lected for discussion are especially timely and the sessions next year are expected to be the most important in the annals of the organization. Never before, say those prominent in charities and correction work through- out the state, has there been as much activity along progressive lines and the need of support to bring about needed reforms. Several innovations have been adopted for the work this coming season. One of the most important will be relative to the reforms to be brought before the next session of the legis- lature. In order to properly handle this work a committee on legislation has been selected comprising Hon. Thomas L. Reilly, Meriden; Schuyler Merritt, Stamford; H. H. Spooner, Kensington; Ernest K. Rogers, New London and E. Kent Hubbard, Mid- dletown. All of these are especially well fitted for this work because of their familiarity with legislation and legislative procedure. It is proposed that, if any member of the executive committee, or of the state conference, has any legislation to suggest, the matter should be laid before the legislative committee. If its merits are such as to gain their approval they will bring the proposed matter before the conference sessions for endorsement and the decision of the conference will be laid before the legislature. Because of the import- ance of the interests back of any such action it is believed that the re- sults will be much more satisfactory than haphazard procedure by individ- uals or scattered organizations. Tentative Program. President Leonard O. Smith of Nor- wich, just before his departure for a six weeks’ trip to California with the American Bankers’ association, an- nounced the tentative program for the conference. It is simply the bare out- line and will be subject to possible change and enlargement. The four main topics oi discussion and action are to be as follows: I'irst—Reforma- tory and Correctional Work; second— Children; third—The Family and the Community; fourth—Mental and Phy- sical Defectives. In the makeup of these topic com- mittees all interested are invited to suggest the names of those who would be interested and helpful in advancing the plans for the presenta tion of the themes. Another invita- tion is that names be suggested of anyone in the state, or out of it, who would make a good introductory speaker on any one topic. It is sug- gested tHat in recommending speak- ers attention be paid to those who have enunciation and voice power sufficient to enable the entire audi- ence to hear the message brought. Program Committee, These suggestions should be for- warded to anyone of the program committee, the membership of which has been just anounced and is as fol- lows: Dr. David Gibbs, Meriden; George Palmer, New London; Charles P. Kellogg, Waterbury; Dr. Henry M. Pollock, Norwich; Miss Louise H. Merritt, Stamford, and Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell, Norwich. The work of the above committee will be to take the four main topics agreed upon by the executive com- mittee and secure for each topic a chairman with from six to ten mem- bers. This sub committee will he responsible for speakers secured for their topic. Charles P. Kellogg of the Water- bury Associated Charities has been named as chairman of the committee on membership and will name his as- sociates soon. The officers of the conference are as follows: President, Leonard O. Smith, Norwich; vice presidents, Frederick G. Platt, New Britain; Dr. E. T. Bradstreet, Meriden; George S. Palmer, New London; George H. Ed- wards, Bridgeport; Edgar M. Warner, Putnam; E. Kent Hubbard, Mid- dletown and. Henry D. Bridgeman, Norfolk. Henry D. Johnson of Norwich is treasurer of the conference with Ed- ward D. B. Lynde, secretary of the New London Associated Charities, secretary. : Executive Committee. The executive committee is posed of the above officers and the following: Rev. John Broderick, Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell, Mrs. George D. Coit, Dr. Henry M. Pollock and Henry A.
