To the Editor, Jewish Daily Bulletin:

Could you or your readers suggest a suitable organization for my two daughters, eighteen and twenty-three, where they could join and meet other girls and boys of the same age for cultural and social association?

One is a high school teacher now teaching in New Jersey and the other is a trained nurse.

I purposely moved from New Jersey to New York for their sake because they were not able to find the proper associates; but they now seem at a loss what to do with their spare time and I am very anxious for them to associate with the proper people.

PANICKY REPORTS

To the Editor, Jewish Daily Bulletin:

It is difficult for me to understand why the Zionist Executive has established a special news agency to spread panicky reports abroad about Palestine, such as which appeared during the last few days, one from Geneva and one from Palestine, for example. The first states that the League of Nations has definitely rejected the idea that Palestine is ever to become a Jewish state, the second that the Mufti has called a secret gathering to initiate an anti-Jewish campaign on a large scale.

Is it the mission of a news agency maintained on Zionist funds and by the Zionist Executive to spread such alarming reports from Palestine? How can the Zionist Executive justify such sensationalism?

BACKS BRITAIN

To the Editor, Jewish Daily Bulletin:

Permit me to say that I regard censure of Great Britain very unfair.

The British are the best friends the Jews have had in this generation, and to throw caustic words at them without reason strikes me as very unsportsmanlike.

The rabid Zionists naturally would like to see all their wildest hopes quickly realized; but, unfortunately, this cannot be.

Meanwhile, our friends are doing all in their power and more. Let us show our appreciation.

Alfred Schiffer.
