Entering The I6th Year
THE issue of Feb^ 26th of the Ohio Jewish Chronicle marks the beginning of our 16th year of continuous publication. It is a source of great joy to the publishers and editor that we have been enabled to weather the very severe storms of these years. We could not have done it without the loyal support and friendly cooperation of both the advertising constituency and our reading public. We are pardonably, we hope, proud of the record we have established. We have published a dignified, clean, thoroughly honest periodical, We have played fairly with our public and we have not compromised in the high standard which we set ourselves in the beginning. We are proud also of the confidence which we have increasingly won and increasingly maintained no less than of the goodwill towards the Jewish Chronicle, which is so manifestly extant. Very definitely, the Jewish Chronicle is an established institution and recognized as a necessity in the organized communal life of our city.
To all who have helped ih this enterprise, to all who have cheered us and supported us, we speak oiir thanks, and to those who have not yet become supporting mem¬ bers of the family of the Jewish Chronicle through paid subscriptions or supporting advertising, we once again extend the hearty invitation to join and help us. The more support of this kind that is forthcoming, the better our publication can become, the more departments we can run, the more service we can render. Apart from the material considerations, the Jewish Chronicle con¬ tinues to be a service agency in the Jewish, community, and on that basis primarily, no less than on the record which is ours, we claim the increasing support of our communities. .   ^

Theresa Helbui-n is a little sad. Founder, and for 17 years director of the Theatre Guild, she wonders where arc our feminine playwrights who will turn oilt plays ;vith the same per¬ sistency as the Edna Ferbers and thc Fannie Hursts of the novel. Modern' women, Miss Helbuirn muses,-viristfully, in spite of all their emancipation, are still more .interested in romance than in plays of ideas. - .
• And so it must be—.for that.is the very key to woman's existence. What, if not her lust for romance;serit Miss Sally Wolf, only surviving .feminine Jewish war veteran, to serve' as a Yeomanette in the Censors Bureau of the Navy Department in Paris during the World, War? What,:.if not her romantic quest for justice led. Susan Brandeis, in ihe footsteps of her re^ nowned: father,, to the active practice of law^and instilled wltliin her the forging power to be hailed the first woman -ever to appear before tht United States Supreme Court, when she pleaded,a case there in 1025? Or Miss Mercia Lcton of Portland, Ore., graduate of Northwestern College bf Law iri 1!)33, who.was called to Wash¬ ington, D.' C, three, years ago for a position with thc Agricultural Adjust¬ ment Administration, and last year sent to Puerto Rico.to fill a post with the Puerto Rico Reconstruction Ad¬ ministration? And it's romance tem¬ pered with charity that brought into bieing the newly-introduced-in-the- United States Beth Jacob—or "Hoiisc of Jacob", the time-honored appellation of Jewish womanhood. / It is the mbvement for the reclamation of the Jewish girl in Eastern Europe. Young girls — beautiful, romfintic, keen- minded, good of heart: burdened by great energies without oiitletj by temp¬ tations without guided constraint, faced with dangers unprotected, plunged into the chaos and destruction, the hunger and despair born of the Great War—all are welcomed in the "House of Jacob", with its 400 schools in Eastern and Central Europe caring fpr 35,000 girls. Proudly now we wel¬ come to our own borders branches—- which we pray will thrive as well upon our soil—of Beth Jacob, Thus woman takes her rightful place as mother of man, teacher of children, light of the world.

Troops Patrol Tiberias Sts.
After Sudden Outbreak
Of Arab Rioting
TIBERIAS,,PALESTfNE(WNS) —R.einforced police and troop detach-r ments are^patrolling every street in Tiberias to prevent a recurrence of the sudden outbreak of rioting which brought injuries to 30 Jews, 30 Arabs and two. British policemen, after^ a crowd of Moslem's leaving a mosque ran amuck la,the Jewish quarter. In the most serious disturbance since the outbreaks of li>36 ended* the Arab crowd, stoned passing Jews, smashed windows .and went berserk in the old city section. The jews quickly ar¬ ranged themselves in self-defense for¬ mation. Four of the wounded Jews, were hurt by stones arid one -was severely knifed., Wheii the, police ar¬ rived; they fired into the air in order to disperse the Arabs. Thereafter Arab shipcr^v fired from the hiUsidea, with, soldiers replying .'with machine gmis'..'. :,¦[ , ,.¦.:'¦-.'
Three Jews and-two Arabs accused of participating in the disturbances were immediately tried by the District Commissioner, found guilty and sen¬ tenced to prison. The Jews received terms ranging from six'months to two years while the Arabs were jailed for periods varying from; one to two years. During the trial the District Com¬ missioner was reported to have said that the; Jews should have hidden themselves instead of, fighting. The Hebrew; press, met'this assertion by declaring that- the Jews would, never give up the right of self-defense. In a statement pn the riot the government sought to make it appear that the Re¬ visionists had helped to stimulate the beginning of the trouble but this was vigorously denied by the Jewish com¬ munity of Tiberias and the Hebrew Press. Both asserted that the out¬ break began long before any Revision¬ ists arrived.
At an emergency session of; the Tiberias town councillors, the District Commissioner. warned that the police on emergency duty in the town had inslructions to fire into the crowd at the first sign of renewed irouble. The Jews are charging the, police with neg¬ ligence. -.They are also indignant oyer the report, that only Jewish cars are being stopped from. entering Tiberias by any of the roads leadiijg here. A police search for arms in.Kfar- Saba and the halting of Jewish cars enter¬ ing Kfar Saba alsc> brought protests from Jews.

Polish Nationalist P^rty Bans Violence, But Up¬ holds Anti-Jewish Boycott
WARSAW (WNS) —Fears bi Jewish leaders that the new nationalist and Fascist I)arty organized by thc * present Polish government would adopt economic anti-Semitism^ as; a^ cardinal point in its program were ' realized when Colonel Adam Koc, , commander of the Polish legion¬ naires, in a radio, address outlining the aims and objectives of the new party, said "wc recognize the instinct of legitimate self-defense of our culture and thc effort-qf the Polish people to attain economic independence." This rather vague sentence, is interpreted in Jewish ;quartcrs as approval of, the economic boycott of the Jews.       . , -
In the same address, however,; Col^ ' onel ICoc made it plain'that the new one-party authoritarian state, which, the nationalist party envisages; "can-, not condone acts of violence or brutal anti-Semitic reactions which degrade our national dignity and, honor and lower the level of bur-cultural life. Order and security must prevail." The : party's program also gives the Cath¬ olic, Church a privileged position and special protection but ..assures other, creeds that relations between them and thc government will be based on the Polish tradition of religious tolerance.
Another iwint that is causing deep concern, to the Jews is the declaration that "the probleni of over-population , of the Polish, countryside is to be set¬ tled   by   emigration   of   peasants  -to towns to se,ck employment in trade and industry."   It is,this population shift to the towns that has caused many of , the recent pogrorhs because thc peas¬ ants are competing with Jews for the slim: opportunities in.the urban areas. What   some   interpreted  as  a  polite, warning to the Jews not to protest too. much was also contained in Col¬ onel. Koc's   speech.    This   paragraph read as follows:, "We -wish to live in friendly cooperation with ,our national, minorities. We inhabit this country iti ,¦ .which we have created our civilization nnd Avhichwe  have-often  defended; against barbaric invasion. History de--   . creed a common fate for us. We fully appreciate the differences between the niinorities and ourselves and intend to . respect them so long as they do not endanger our country.";      .
"Too Friendly" to Jevirs
WARSAW (WNS) — Jews and anti-Semites .found themselves in the saitie politicar camp for the J first time when both voiced vigorous ob¬ jections to the stand on'anti-Semitism announced by the government's new' nationalistic party. The jews Sre cau- . tiously but unmistakabiy giving vent to . their feeling that the government's program for dealing virith the'Jews is but tlie first step toward the estab¬ lishment of a . ciiltural and tnora! ghetto and official approval of the anti-Jewish boycott. Although pjeased with the party's assurances that it. will,not tolerate anti-Jewish violence, Jewish opinion expects that the lot of the Jews, already critical,.will become even worse, The anti-Sernitic parties, on the other, hand, who had been ex¬ pected to join the new party, arc- violently, bpposedrto it because of what they regard as its. mild attitude toward . the Jews." The Dziennik Naradowy, organ' of the National /Democrats. " (Endeks) censured the party's,.pro¬ gram becauseof its expressed oppo¬ sition, to pogroms. The ABC, - organ , of themore militantly anti-Jewish Na¬ tional Radicals (Naras) also came out in oppo-sition because the party prq^ grant was not sufficiently anti-Semitic . and because it failed to recognize that the Jewish question is Poland's chief iwhtical problem.
