Hut the Jewish community isn't hct iip at all ¦ . . For why? . . . l^ecause the pUnniiing, furniture and window-glas.<! were sup¬ plied by Jewisli contractors . . . And the ¦^ncrscer of the KICK's tran.-;actioiis is a Jcvvish lawyer . . . Senator Arthur Rob¬ inson of Indiana, we hear, is planning au election campaign on lhc platform that something must he done about the pres¬ ent   administration,   which,   he   .says,   is
.turning the country over to the Catholics and Jews . . . Did we ever tell you of tlie plan put forward by the Daily News, N. Y. tabloid, to hasten recovery by in- crcaaing the iiiimher of consnmers—by letting into the U. S. victims of persecii- lion abroad? . . . Someone who heard Professor Ra:ymoii(l (To<lay) Moley at¬ tack the State Department for not act¬ ing to protect the German Jews has rc- iiienibercd that when fhe professor was a member of said department he got an ap¬ peal from Felix Frankfurter in this con¬ nection—and referred FF to Justice Brandies. . . .
A Word on Wise One,inquisitive correspondent calls our
. attention to the fact that in one. of the issues of Who's Who Dr. Stephen . S. VVise listed Iiis birth date to tnake his re¬ cent anniversary his {;2nd instead of his 'iOth . . . Perhaps somebody's pen slipped when that date was written ... Be that as it may. Dr. Wise, as you probably know, received a tremendou.s—and fidly deserved—ovation on his birthday last \veok . . . Talking of Dr. Wise's past re- niiiids us that the, present controversy between hitn and Samuel Untermyer, head of the Boycott League, goes back to 1021, at the-time of the Democratic convention ... It seems that Uiitennyer was reported at that time to have urged William G. McAdoo, his protege, not to disown the supijort of the KKK . . . Dr. Wise, then president of the American Jewish Congres.s, criticizetl Mr, Unter¬ myer, then vice president of the Con¬ gress, for action which, SSW termed, harmful to the interests of all Americans as well as Jews ... Untermyer com plained of the criticism, and the matter was, considered at an executive commit¬ tee meeting of the Congres.q . . . Dr. Wise ; was sustained, whereupon Unter¬ myer resigned his vice presidency of the organization . . .And the breach has ;never been healed.

This is the picture for which tlie late Cantor Joseph Rosciililatt, mo.st beloved singer in Israel, went to Pales¬ tine. And this is the picture that lias immortalized for all time the last song of that noble and devout Jew, whom all men knew aud revered as the Caruso of the synagogue.

In "My People's Dream," you will be¬ hold the glory of ancient Palestine, its famous landmarks celebrated in the Bible, the ruins of the Temple of Jerusalem, the (|uaint life of the .\rabs; you will be thrilktl by the heroic spirit of the new generation of pioneers and builders. You will marvel at the remarkable progress the country has piade in indiistry, agri¬ culture and commerce.   Yon will be in¬
spired by the idealism that^ has spurred sturily young men and Vvomeii to found colonies, huild factories, drain swamps, and till tJie soil of Palestine.

The City of Tel Aviv The only all-Jewish city in the world, Tel Aviv (Hill, of Spring) will be brought to. you in striking scenes that will linger in your memory for years to come. Here is a real miracle. On what ; was only a sandhill twenty-five years ago, the Jews have built a cjty of 80,000,i>opu- lation that has become the talk of the world. The most advanced industrial and cultural methods have been employed in planning this all-Jewish, metropolis. ¦
The most colorful scenes of "My People's Dream" are the celebrations of the various Jewish festivals and holidays iu modern Palestine. Pageants, parades, carnivals, cerempnics are rei)roduccd in a graphic, and striking manner, capturing the true si)irit of rejoicing and reverence of Jewish tradition.
**My People's Dream" willlift you to new heights of entertainment and inspira- tian. Here is a picture that will touch every Jewish heart. Here ia a picture that will unfold jfor Jewish children a representation of the story of the old and new Palestine that.will fill them with deep reverence and love for the Jewish tradition and Jewish culture.
The Ohio Jewish Chronicle most heartily endorses this splendid Jewish picture and trusts that every man, woman and child of the to.'^al Jewisii community as well as surrounding towns will go to ¦ see it this Sunday afternoon or evening at Neth's Hartman Theatre, corner State and Third streets. Remember—this pic¬ ture is here for one day only, Sunday, April 1st.
