The manuscript of the none Zionist Congress addresses of Dr. Max Nordau was presented to Dr. Heinrich Loewe of the Hebrew National Library of Jerusalem at a meeting of the Committee for the Hebrew National Library on Monday.
The manuscript was purchased from Mme. Nordau by a group of American Zionists including Nathan Straus, Mrs. Mary Fels, Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Julius Simon, Solomon Rosenbloom, with the object in view of having them later deposited in the Jerusalem Library. The presence of Dr. Loewe here in the interests of the Library was taken advantage of in order to make the presentation.
Those at the meeting Monday included, besides Dr. Loewe, Professor Mark, Librarian of the Jewish Theological Seminary, Dr. Solomon Lowenstein of the Federation for the Support of Jewish Philanthropic Societies, Julius Simon, Jacob deHaas, and Dr. Stephen S. Wise.
