Lord Melchett, chairman of the council and political committee of | the Jewish agency for Palestine, re- signed both positions in a letter to Dr. Chaim Weizmann, who himself has resigned as president of the Zionist movement and the Jewish | agency, and assailed vigorously the | new pronouncement of the secretary | of colonies, Lord Passfield. ‘ In his letter he described the Mac- | Donald government's declaration, which accompanied the report of Sir | John Hope Simpson on the riots of | 1ast August, as “an act of almost un- paralleled ingratitude and treachery M-mnmmed by a government toward |« credulous and harassed people | who believed that they had found & haven under the broad aegis of the British flag and the guaranteed word | of British statesmen.” | The British pronouncement has | stirred the Zionist movement and | Jewish circles to their very depths, |and with resignations of their lead- lers the rank and file are wondering | where next to turn. There is a gen- cral feeling that it is the United States to whom they must look, al- though what form an American con- tribution to solution of the situatin could take is a matter of speculation. Tt is believed that the Zionist congress, called for next February. | by Dr. Chaim Weizmann, who will | serve as president until it has con- | vened, may well meet in the United | States instead of in London. Lord Passfield’s new statement of | policy implied a definite retarding of Zionist activity in Palestine and call- | ed what amounts to a halt on Jewish immigration into the country.

Radio-mobilized dragnets of fleet police automobiles have reduced to a minimum the precious minutes’ headway the bandits have depended on for escape. Already a notable decrease in crime of this class has been report- cd to the federal radio commission by the score and 10 cities and one state in which police radio service has been established. Success of the system in most of these cities has caused 20 morc to apply for radio permits. Predicts Growth Commissioner Harold A. Lafount predicted today that within a short time every American city of 100,- 000 population or more will adopt the system. He noted that because the police systems operate on wave lengths that are exceedingly difficult of interception, criminals have no opportunity to turn the radio to their own use to fightgback. Only Michigan has a statewide system. ¥From Detroit come reports of excellent results. Minneapolis, | Dallas, Chicago, Cincinnati, Clev land, Tndianapolis, Louisville, Ky., Scattle, Columbus, O., Tulare, Calif., and Cedar Rapids, Ta., are some of the cities wusing police radio. In Pennsylvania, the state police have & | tives. number of broadcast statlons, and the city of New York uses a service in connection with harbor police work. Philadelphia, San TFrancisco, Au- burn, and Buffalo, New York, San | Antonio and Berkeley, Calif., and Washington, D. C., are among the | 20 cities granted permits to con- struct radio stations, along "/ith the state of Missouri, which is to build a station at Kansas City. ‘While big rum running syndi- cates have been found to use radio for communication with ships at sea, the commission said thus far the domestic criminals had been unable to use the radio to compat the police. JEWS ARRESTED AFTER PROTEST Demonstration Before Embassy Leads But to Jail Warsaw, Oct. 22 vish Tele- graphic Agency) — ¥iit Jews were arrested by the Wii. police in the night after a thousand or more Jews had organized an im- promptu demonstration in front of the British embassy. The crowd. which included many Zionist pion- eers, marched to the embassy shout- ing anti-British sentiments. The police quickly dispersed them. The Right Poale Zioi, the socialist Zionist party, today cabled a protest to the labor party against the Brit- ish government’s statement. A simi- |1ar protest was sent to the American Federation of Labor. All of the Zionist groups in the country head- ed by the Polish Zionist organiza- tion, the Mizrachi and the Histad- | ruth have joined in issuing a call for |ar all-Poland conference tomorrow to discuss the situation. As a gesture of definace 100 im« migrants left for Palestine today. A cheering crowd of several thousand gathered at the railway station to sec them depart.

Write Resinol, Dept.50 Baltimore, Md, Listless? Depressed" Don’t let constipation wear you out. Combat it with this modern chewing gum laxative, To correct constipation you must first know that the way you take a laxative is fully as important as the kind of laxative you take. All laxa- tives will vary in effectiveness unless every particle can be made to work. Feen-a-mint, the original chewing gum laxative, was preparcd to in- sure uniform “internal distribution,” which is now known to be so im- portant in the operation of a laxa- tive. Because you chew Feen-a-mint it is effective in milder doses than or- dinary laxatives. For the effective- ness of a laxative is not so much de- pendent upon the quantity swallow- ed as upon the thoroughness of its distribution throughout the alimen- tary tract. While you chew this delicious bit of gum the tasteless laxative it con- tains is gradually released and mix- ed with the saliva. Thus it is car- ried to the intestinal tract smoothly, evenly, without shock to the system or the distressing after-effects so common with ~old-fashioned laxa- Each particles of the laxative in Feen-a-mint works with utmost cfficiency, gently encouraging the in- testinal muscles to resume the acti ity so necessary for healthful clim- ination. The action of thorough, gentle, dependable. the proper dosage, it is not mnece sary to increase the amount of Feen-a-mint you take nor to switch to another laxative for a change.
