Never before in the history.of Jcvvish life in this city did our [ieople niake a better showing. Every element was in¬ fused with thc finest spirit of humani- tarianism and each gave according to its means and even more. Second Quarterly Payment The second quarterly payment on the sLibscriptions are now due aiid eVery subscriber to the Fund is'urged by the officers, to make his remittance at once. This will greatly facilitate the Work of the officers in carrying out their obliga¬ tions to the various causes to which money has been allbcated. 'Chairman Schanfarber' trusts that every subscriber 'will respond immedi¬ ately. According to his letter published elsewhere in this issue, eight hundred givers have subscribed approximately t235,000 to the United Jewish Fund. Since there; ar;e still about two hundred unsubscribed prospects in the community, there is no question but that thp. $250,000 quota, will he attained. Mr Schanfarber desires to bring home to evcty sub¬ scriber the vital necessity of prompt pay¬ ments of subscription^ as they mature. A Remarkable Transformation It IS worthy of note that the United Jewish Fund has brought about a re¬ markable transformation, in Columbus. It has welded the various groups which go to make up this community and has' brought them into closer touch with each other, thus creating a wholesome feeling of mutual sympathy and under¬ standing. By pooling their efforts these various groups have prevented'the dupli¬ cation of expense and energy and have obviated the necessity of separate drives. The Chuonicle, which has been cooper¬ ating in every wjiy in consummating the drive, has noted with much gratification the salutary effects it has had on the en¬ tire community. ' Sublime Purposes .\t this" time it is. not necessary to point out further .the sublime purposes and aims of the United Jewish Fund. Every Chronicle reader knows that every dol¬ lar raised will be wisely spciit in meri¬ torious causes by men of standing and responsibility. Following are the appropriations al¬ ready approved by the Finance and Bud¬ get Committee of the Fund: (1) The Joint Distribution Committee for Foreign Relief, $5,1,000; (2) The Jewish Orphan Home of Cleveland. $00,000; (3) The Hebrew School of Columbus; ^30,000; (4) Thc United Palestine Appeal, $20,- mt; (.i) The B'nai B'rith Hillel Foun¬ dation, etc..

Appro.iitnately eight hundred givers have subscribed a sum in c.rcess of appro.timately $2^s,coo.oo to this Fund ivith which we hope to meet the demands already accepted by our coiU' munity and tho.sr which will be made for Jewish philanthropic, cultural aitd cdtuatiotial purposes during the coming tliree years, other than those for purely local purposes. We hope to attain our goal of $25o,qoo.oo very shortly; for there are appra.rimately two hundred unsubscrihcd prospects in the community, who, since the organisation has been etitirely perfected, will he carefully checked up with the end in view that each person in the roiitmtinily, who is able, will bc given ati opportutiity to subscribe to this most worthy cause. THE IMPORTANT THING WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE YOU STRESS IN YOUR COLUMNS UPON THE SUBSCRIBERS IS THE NECESSITY FOR PROMPT PAY¬ MENT OF SUBSCRIPTIONS AS THEY MATURE.

Jewish Emigration To Land of Mexico Should Be Discouraged —DECLARES INVESTIGATOR Dr. Hcxter's Survey of Je>with Conditioiis in Mexico and Re¬ port of Immigration Situa¬ tion Are Made Public RECOMMENDS RELIEF WORK IN THAT LAND , Edwin. _ ScH/\l\|fiflRBFt? Chairman On Tisha B'av, Don't Forget To Remember The Jewish National Fund All the Land ThuB Far Acquired by the J N. Fm Approximating 250,000 Duiiams, Is Already Occupied nnd Tilled Who is redeeming Palestine'' Every Jew ought to know it.' It is the Jewish National Fund (K^ren Kayemeth le Israel), founded by Theodor Herzl in 1901, that redeems the soil of Palestine as the inalienable property of the Jew¬ ish people; it also improves the ground by draining swamps, drilling wells and laying out roads, thus making the land fit for cultivation; and it then turns over the land in hereditary lease, on easy terms, lo any Jew who may be will¬ ing and capable to work it. All the settlements ,bf the heroic Jew¬ ish Halutzim (pioneers), the pride and hope of agricultural Jewish Palestine, arc to be found on the,land of the Jew¬ ish National Fund. The entire coloni¬ zation work of the Keren Hayesod is being carried out on National Fund soil. The National Fund also'provides the sites for Workmen's Suburbs ¦ and Garden Cities, as well as for important Natioi al Institutions. The National Fund also plants trees on its estates in hundreds of thousands, thereby making the climate more healthful and the soil more fertile. Fine Opportunities An the land thus far acquired by the Je\frish National Fund, approximating 200,000 dunams, is alre^idy occupied. There is no more free land available for the hundreds of Halutalm who are al¬ ready waiting in Palestine to be colo¬ nized and the thousands of them who arc on the way to, Palestine.; On the other hand, fine opportunities now offer them- selyes for the acquisition of large an'l valuable tracts of land, but thesq op¬ portunities may be missed because of a lack of funds. ^ The Jewish National Fund therefore appeals to every true Jew to.donate on the'Ninth of Av, the day of national mourning, a piece of land jn Palestine for the Jewish people. Let the wealthy give according to theii" nieans. Of the noti-wealthy we ask that every one of them.should give or collect among his IContittued on page 4J NEW YORK.^The present situation c^f thc Jews in Mexico as well aa a dis¬ cussion of the possibilities of Mexico as a land for Jewish migration are pre¬ sented in an authoritative and scholariy neport by Dr. Maurice B. Hexter, Ex¬ ecutive Director of the Federated Jewish Charities of Boston, which has just been published .'in pamphlet form and sent out to the delegates to the Atnerican Jew¬ ish Coiigrcss and to the .constituent or¬ ganizations of the Emergency Comniittee on Jewish Refugees- This essay which originally appeared.in the Jezifish Social Qvarto'ly. is a summary of a r<-port pre¬ pared by Dr. Hexter for the Emergency Comniittee on Jewish "Refugees, which in April, IJIJo, sent a Commission con-, sihting of Dr, Hexter and Mr. Charles K. .^snis of Philadelphia, to investigate conditions of Jewish iinniigrants resident 111 !Mexico and to report its findings on the question whether further Jewish migration to Mexico shoiild be'encour¬ aged. Dire Conditions The Emergency Committee on Jewish Refugees, It will be recalled, came into being through a conference of various central and national Jewish organiza¬ tions, on June 22, 1921, as a result of the activities of the American Jewish Con- press in arousing public opinion to the dire corditions of the Jewish refugees stranded in various European ports. This agitation led ,to a conference of .repre¬ sentatives from all groups in Jewish life at which the Emergency Committee was organized with the purpose of raising a fund of $oOO,OOOi with which to meet the crisis that had arisen. Thanks to the generous response to the appeal of the Committee under the leadership of Louis Marshall and Dr. Stephen S Wise, the very acute refugee situation has-now been practically disposed of, only about 300 out of over 6,000 refugees being left in the different ports of Europe. Against Emigration ' Dr. Hcxter's investigation led to a 'definite discouragement of all plans I which had been set afoot in recent years with regard to Jewish emigration mto Mexico. Dr. Hexter reached the conclu¬ sion that."colonization in Mexico, should not only not be encouraged hut should definitely and firmly be discoqraged- No 'investigator or student of the subject of Jewish emigration to Mexico," says Dr. Hexter, "is prepared to recommend other¬ wise. . . . Only in the minds of steam¬ ship agents, petty Jewish politicians, cer¬ tain Mexican officials and harassed; suf¬ fering and desperate Jewish emigrants does such a thought prevail."
