It wa.s, however, in August, 1!)2!), when the tragic events of the Arab attacks on the Jew.^ overwhelmed Pales¬ tine and .sliocked the workl, that Mr. Samuel, hving in Tcl Aviv, at once joiiicd tlie Jewish Self-Defcnse Corps and took part in resisting the Arab at¬ tacks. Mr. Samuel has* recently returned to this country. His vivid description of the events that, traiisp.ired in Pales¬ tine, and his documented evidence on the situation as regards responsibility for the outbreaks have arouwd widespread inter- es-t both among Jews and the general world. Mr. Samuel's experiences in Palestine have culminated in a book called "What Happened in Palesfrinq," which promises greatly to enhance the literary prestige he gained with his earlier volumes, "Yon conditions. Few men living today have his mental e<|U.ipmeiit, or his opportunity for knowing Jewish life tbruout the world. As a member, of the United States Pogrom Investigating Commis¬ sion to Poland and then as* a member of the International Reparations Commis¬ sion in Paris, Berlin and Vienna, Mau¬ rice Samuel, came into close i>ersoiial contact with the leading. dif>Iohiats of Europe and .'Xmcrica. In the movement for the rebuilding of Palestine, Mr. SainueL occupies a com¬ manding position. In l!l:ii, Mr. Samuel went to Palestine at the invitation of Dr. Cliaini Weizmann, Prewdent of the World Zionist Organization. Since that time, he lias made numerous-visit*: which have supplemented with actual experi¬ ence the intimate knowledge that he has of the historical traditions behind the Jewish effort to rebuild Palestine. In June, l!Hif>, Mr. Samuel returned to [Palestine, where he decided to spend a number of months each year for bis' lit- Geiitiles," "I, the Jew," "The Jewisli An¬ thology," and other vohimeV. Knowing that. Mr. Samuel was one. of the few Aincricaii Jewish leaders in Palestine during the time of the massacres in the Holy Land, keen interest has been aroused in his account as an eyewitness of the cvc'nttf that -transpired there. There arc very few cities in the U. S. where Mr. Samuel has not spoken on behalf of the Zionist Movement. He pos-icsses hosts of followers in every section of this land a? well as in foreign countries. Among those who are assisting in ar¬ ranging for Thursday evening's meeting are litibert L. Mellman, Allen Tarshish, Roy J. Stone, Rabbi Rivlin. A. Seff, Ben B. Friedman, Cantor Ansel Freed¬ man, Cantor Solomon Grodner, Joseph Solove, and Aaron M, Neustadt. Repre¬ sentatives of the Hadassah groups and the O. S. U. Avukah. are also assisting. The Frank For Council Organization Thanks Al! Who Cooperated To Put Melville D. Frank Over HOUSANDS. of Chronicle readers are rejoicing at the glad news of kelville D; Frank's election to a council- manic post. They feel that this fine, up¬ standing young man with a clean, ex¬ emplary record wilt reflect credit not only upon the! fair name of this, "no mean city," but also upon all Colimibus Jewry. The following statement by Messrs. Ben Neustadt and Attorney Harry Schwartz, co-chairhian of the Frank For Council Organization, i^ apropos at this time: -^ Nothing succeeds like success I The Frank For Council Organization wishes to thank everyone who made ppb- sible the tremendously gratifying success in the Municipal Election Of last Tues¬ day. Our candidate, "Sonny" Frank, running for the first time for public of¬ fice and still in his twenties, was a close second aiid within two hundred votes of being first in the entire iicld of councilmanic candidates. This unprece¬ dented, victory , surpassed the fondest hopes and expectations of all of Frank'i supporters.' To all the workers, the voters, and (o those wlio contributed to bring about this wonderful victory, I wish to ex¬ press my sincerest thanks and apprecia¬ tion. , (Signed), BEN Z.
